Chapter 1726 Suspicion
A whole day of practice, only a short break at lunch, the rest of the time is either theory or practice, no effort wasted.
To be honest, this kind of high-intensity study and training is very tiring for everyone and Maca.
Especially Maca, don't look at him just walking back and forth in and out of the courtyard, and from time to time, he would come to his friends in need to give advice. However, this targeted guidance regardless of the target is obviously quite labor-intensive.
Until the end of the dinner, after Maca announced that everyone had finished consolidating the magic theories they had learned today, he went upstairs to rest quite tiredly.
"Then I'll try Maca's arm shield again!" Ron stood up immediately as soon as Maca left, and said enthusiastically, "Ginny, give me a delivery—"
Obviously he was also very tired today. After all, since Maca drove him to lift stones with Neville in the morning, apart from studying magic theory, he has been lifting stones for mental strength training this day.
But it is obvious that he really likes the rune arm shield, because he, who is not very talented, can also cast amazing magic.
For Ron, this feeling is probably addictive!
Looking at Ron who took the arm shield from Ginny and ran out of the living room excitedly, the friends all looked back and forth at each other.
"I'm going to practice alone for a while, too." Neville waved at everyone, and then chased Ron and ran out through the back door.
Perhaps it was Neville and Ron's positive influence on other people. Soon, most of the friends also left the living room one after another, and finally only Hermione, Luna and Delphi were left behind.
"Let's keep working hard!"
Seeing that everyone had gone, Hermione couldn't help but want Luna and Delphi to continue studying the rule runes together. But at this moment, Luna at the side seemed to remember something, and gestured to Hermione.
"Let's go to Harry's side first!"
"Oh!" Hermione nodded immediately when she heard that, "I almost forgot...Alright, let's go! Let's go visit him."
Hermione nodded suddenly, then got up and walked upstairs together with Luna and Delphi. And in this process, Delphi was the only one who didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.
...
Moments later, in the room where Harry and Ron lived.
"Harry!"
Hermione opened the door first and walked in, and then saw Harry who was reading a notebook on the bed. Although she still needs more time to rest for the time being and can't participate in practice, she still doesn't forget to study the theoretical level of learning progress in bed.
Seeing Hermione and the others come in, Harry put the notebook aside, and happily greeted the three who came to visit him.
"How are you feeling?" Hermione stepped forward and asked, "Can you go back to practice tomorrow? Oh, by the way, have you had dinner yet?"
"Well," Harry nodded when he heard that, "it should be fine by tomorrow... Then, if you mean dinner—"
As he spoke, he pointed to the table not far away.
"Maca brought it to me, and I just finished eating."
"That's good," Hermione smiled, "you should go to bed early! Don't watch it tonight...well, I'm relieved to see that you're in good spirits, so let's first..."
She was about to go downstairs to the yard, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Luna behind her.
"Hermione, there's something I want to tell you."
"what?"
Hearing Luna's words, Hermione immediately turned her head and glanced at her.
"It's Maca," Luna tilted her head, and said with some doubts, "Delphie told me that Maca seems to be different... I didn't pay attention at first. But after today, I seem to have It felt a little weird."
As soon as Maca was mentioned, all eyes in the room, including Harry on the bed, fell on her.
And at this moment, Luna looked at Harry again, and then said:
"Harry, you should have noticed it too, right? Maca seems... a little anxious?"
"Well?"
Harry was taken aback by Luna's words, saw him scratching his head, frowning and thinking for a while, then nodded hesitantly.
"I don't feel anything if you don't say it, but after you mention it, I feel something is wrong."
He recalled and said slowly:
"Well... you should also know that today I wanted to challenge the sword of Gryffindor, but I failed completely. But maybe you don't know that this challenge... was offered by Maca to help me open it. Yes. With Maca’s past temperament, I don’t think he would be so eager to let me start if he is not very sure.”
But before the words finished, Hermione couldn't help shaking her head slightly.
"But, shouldn't Maca be anxious? Luna, you know, even though Maca spared no time to give us 'remedial lessons', in fact, the current situation is quite serious."
"Well, I know that," Luna said, "but even so, it doesn't look like Maca's style to make us all stronger, does it? Although he has only carried many things by himself so far, it is true. Somewhat inappropriate, but his current change...is too sudden."
Listening to what Luna said, Delphi finally couldn't help but interjected:
"Yes, I actually think so too—to be honest, I've been worried about whether Mr. McLean will leave us since he came back from the sea before. And you see... he is so eager to guide us, Do everything possible to let us increase our strength, as if we are—”
"...preparing for the situation where we don't have his protection?" Hermione subconsciously took over the conversation, hesitating, "No, he... how could he... Maca won't leave us alone. "
"Of course, generally speaking, of course he won't," Delphi said solemnly, "unless...he wants to fight Haierbo alone for the final battle for our future. And, he actually doesn't You don’t have much chance of winning.”
To be honest, whether it is Luna's words or Delphi's, they sound somewhat far-fetched. However, Hermione couldn't find anything that contradicted reality from their analysis.
She naturally didn't want to believe it, but unfortunately, she also couldn't deny these possibilities.
"I—" Hermione hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help saying, "No, I'm going to ask him to find out, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to settle down anyway."
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around abruptly and ran out of the room in a hurry.
