Chapter 2304 Powerlessness
Not long after returning to London, Harry started to develop a high fever... To be honest, if this is the price that must be paid to kill a demon, Harry would rather have the temperature on his forehead a few degrees higher.
So even though Harry, who was lying on the bed right now, was always awake and sometimes in a daze state, his mood didn't seem as bad as he imagined.
However, in another room separated from the room he lived in by only one wall, Ron, who could only lie on the bed and do nothing, was full of complicated sighs in his heart.
"Forget it...it's just a change from 'trash' to 'legless trash'. Since they are all trash, what difference does it make if they have legs or not?"
Half leaning on the soft pillow, Ron turned his face sideways, looking at the crystal clear ice world outside the window. After subconsciously reaching out to touch the vacancy below half of the thigh, he sighed self-deprecatingly.
Because the leg was broken so thoroughly, even in the magic world, it was difficult to regenerate the broken limb by ordinary means.
Of course, what made him not despair even after losing his legs, and that he could even lie on the bed like this and laugh at himself, was definitely not the "trash" argument in his mouth.
Over the past few days, Ron has also witnessed countless cruel scenes with everyone. Compared with those who died in this disaster, he is still alive. This is already a matter of luck thing. And who is so "lucky", what reason does he have to call himself "unlucky"?
"...Yeah! I've been lucky...just useless, that's all."
Just as Ron was looking out the window and muttering to himself, suddenly, there was a knock on the door from the door.
"Tuk tuk."
Before Ron could respond, the door opened with a "squeak", and a series of familiar footsteps extended from the door to the bedside.
"Ron, you're awake."
"Well," Ron scratched his head and turned his head slightly, squeezing out a smile that wasn't much of a smile, "Ginny...how is Harry?"
"Still having a fever, but according to Delphi, there shouldn't be anything wrong. It's just some sequelae of excessive use of mental power. I just gave him some water and fell asleep again, so... I'll come and see look at you."
"I'm fine, don't worry too much!" Ron smiled at his sister again,
He patted the broken leg carelessly and said, "Look! It's healed very well, and it doesn't hurt anymore... I heard from Hermione that Miss Hohenheim has also agreed to make me a pair of alchemy prosthetic legs—maybe it can still be used on my legs. Rune circle engraved on it! Next time I'll have to run faster before breaking my arm or something... Oh, and speaking of which, I'll be even stronger if my arm is made of alchemy too Bar?"
He was just talking in such a rambling manner, as if he was comforting Ginny, but at the same time he seemed to be comforting himself. By the hospital bed, Ginny sat down on the chair beside the bed—she didn't try to interrupt Ron, but just listened quietly. A touch of sadness.
In fact, Ginny's situation is not that different from Ron's. Today, when she saw Harry in a desperate situation on the battlefield, but found that she could do nothing to help, and could only be led away from the center of the battle by Neville, she was undoubtedly very painful.
So... Although she can't understand all the pain in Ron's heart, she can somewhat understand it.
After a while, Ron, who hadn't fully recovered from his injury, probably talked too much, and his fatigue regained his body, and he gradually dozed off again while talking.
After staring at his still frowning face for a while longer, Ginny drew out her wand and shook him gently, laying him flat on the bed and covering him with the quilt.
"Take a good rest and see you again at dinner time."
After saying something softly, she stood up from the chair and quietly exited the room.
...
A little further down the corridor from Harry and Ron's two rooms, there is a small drawing room that was mostly vacant, both before and after the disaster - apparently not a big deal in this former Buckingham Palace things.
But in the past two days, it has rarely come in handy.
"Crack."
Hermione reached out and unscrewed the handle, pushed the door and walked in, then closed the door again smoothly. Immediately afterwards, she saw that Delphi and many other people were in this living room, and they were divided into several places to sit or stand.
"Hermione, did 'he' say something?"
Seeing Hermione coming in, Neville, who was sitting on the sofa with Hannah, immediately stood up and asked.
"At least I definitely didn't say what we want to hear the most." Hermione pursed her lips, walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite them, and said, "The most important thing is that Harry has a high fever, so the follow-up demon The beheading plan is temporarily stopped...that's all. As for the others...he really seems to want us to accept the zombies."
After returning to the palace, the others hurriedly treated and settled the two wounded, Harry and Ron. With Safina and Hannah, two wizards who are good at healing, and Sarah assisting with alchemy, the problem is not too big. As for the "lord of living corpses", he had sent some living corpses over to help out, but after finishing his work, he called Hermione over to discuss the next arrangement.
Originally, most of the others wanted to follow, but after thinking about it, Hermione decided to go to see the other party by herself—probably deep down in her heart, she never gave up, and she was always looking forward to getting something from the other party. Explanation.
Yes, even some specious reminders are good.
It's a pity, now it seems that even if the two of them meet alone, the "lord of the living corpse" doesn't have any intention of getting to the bottom of it.
"Let us accept the Zombies... What good is that for him?" Safina curled her lips and frowned slightly, "Plus the action of killing demons... Hmph, it's inexplicable!"
Although her statement is full of personal prejudice, it also points to the root of the problem. Not only does it make people unable to find fault, but it is also thought-provoking.
In the past few days, everyone has been pondering the pros and cons of it, trying to find some possible clues. However, until Hermione had just had a conversation with the other party, everyone was still at a loss.
Knowing that the other party must have his own plans, or even being constrained and driven by some complicated reasons, but he still can't see through the mystery behind him, which really makes people feel bored.
