Chapter 318 You’re Scared, Aren’t You?

Ivan's words made Hermione completely stunned.

She is only thirteen years old this year and has never been exposed to the word killing, let alone what it would be like to cut off an enemy's head.

Hermione bit her lower lip tightly, wanting to say that she could do it, but the words were stuck in her mouth, and a hazy mist filled her eyes.

"You're scared, aren't you?" Ivan cruelly hit Hermione's self-confidence. "But those dark wizards will only be more terrifying than what I said!"

He knew very well that making it clear now would only hurt Hermione's confidence, but if Hermione was really allowed to participate in the battle, it would be tantamount to pushing her to the brink of death!

Ivan felt that he had no chance of winning against that group of dark wizards at the same time. He had to rely on a suitable venue and the power of the invisibility cloak, not to mention Hermione who had little combat experience.

If she got involved, she would probably have a narrow escape.

Ivan doesn't have the extra energy to distract himself from protecting Hermione.

"So do you understand? Just leave those black-robed wizards to me later." Ivan said.

"But there are so many of them!" Hermione was very worried and couldn't help but suggest. "How about we take your mother and leave first? We can go to Hogwarts. Those dark wizards will definitely not dare to go anywhere!"

"And we can also ask Professor Dumbledore for help" Hermione racked her brains for ideas.

"You don't know my mother, she won't go to Hogwarts." Ivan shook his head and rejected Hermione's proposal.

Asia and Dumbledore are very difficult to deal with. They get angry just by mentioning each other. I'm afraid they would rather die in battle than seek help from Dumbledore.

"Anyway, don't worry too much." Ivan looked at Hermione who looked worried and said in a relaxed tone. "You said, there is never anything I can't do, right? It's the same this time!"

That's not what I meant!

Hermione glared at Ivan dissatisfied, but stopped mentioning dealing with those dark wizards.

Ivan's words just now made her realize that she was weak. If she forced herself to join the war, she might not only be unable to help but also drag Ivan down.

"Then I will watch you here." Hermione hesitated for a long time and finally said.

"Yes!" Ivan nodded and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want Hermione to get hurt because of his own affairs.

Then, Ivan turned his attention to the black magic shop in the distance.

Following the historical context, Ivan tries to analyze the messages left by his future self.

Does it mean not to take the initiative to change and just wait here for them to come? Let everything take its course and only cover the truth with illusions on key points?

Ivan frowned. He didn't like waiting passively. In comparison, he still preferred to take the initiative.

At the same time, Ivan also noticed that Asia was still maintaining her previous movements, holding her chin with her right hand and looking at the clock hanging on the wall in a daze. He didn’t know how long she had been in a daze like this.

It seems that there are no customers in the store during this time. Asia is bored enough.

But why keep looking at the clock? Does this make any sense?

Just as Ivan was thinking about it, a slight chime came over, apparently coming from the clock on the wall.

What surprised Ivan even more was that Asia, who had been lost in thought, made a move.

In the magic shop at this time, Asia looked at the time displayed on the clock and pointed to four o'clock. There was a little look of expectation on her face and she murmured to herself.

"It's almost time, right? Isn't it a little early to go now?"

It's better to be earlier

Asia stood up, walked out of the magic shop, grabbed the purple cloak placed at the door and put it on herself, then stretched out her hand and pointed the wand behind her.

With a bang, the door of the magic shop closed directly.

"Apparition!" Asia didn't stay too long at the door. She waved her wand again and disappeared directly.

On the high ground in the distance, Ivan was stunned watching this scene. The person he needed to protect disappeared in front of him?

"Where did she go? Why did she leave?" Ivan muttered to himself in confusion.

Now there is only more than an hour left before the black magic shop is attacked. Asia is gone. Who can those black-robed wizards attack then?

Ivan is a little anxious. Although Asia is not here, he can easily turn the magic shop into a trap to seduce those black-robed wizards, but what if Asia comes back later?

"Where can she go at four o'clock?" Ivan remembered that Asia had been checking the time before, and looked at the clock on the wall through the window.

"She should be going to King's Cross Station!" Hermione said suddenly.

King's Cross Station? Ivan turned his head and glanced at Hermione, and then realized that today was a holiday for Hogwarts students, and the train would arrive at King's Cross Station in London in the evening!

Asia is probably going to pick him up!

"But that shouldn't be right. I didn't wait for her at the station at all!" Ivan frowned. He remembered clearly that after getting off the bus, he waited at King's Cross Station for a long time without seeing Asia.

It was precisely because of this that he had never thought about this before.

Unless, the past has been changed!

In other words, Asia didn't go to King's Cross Station at all.

Ivan immediately decided to confirm it in person and said to Hermione.

"Hold on, let's go to King's Cross!"

Knockturn Alley is too dangerous. Even with the invisibility cloak, Ivan dare not leave Hermione here alone.

"Yeah!" Hermione nodded and grabbed Ivan's left hand tightly.

Ivan asked Hermione to pull the edge of the invisibility cloak by the way, so as not to drop the invisibility cloak here when teleporting, and waved the wand with his right hand.

"Apparate!"

With a burst of space transformation, the two figures disappeared into Knockturn Alley.

At the same time, Ivan and Hermione appeared in the corner of Kingdom Cross Station. Because the two were wearing invisibility cloaks, they did not cause panic even in this densely populated place.

After Ivan stood firm, he looked around and saw many acquaintances. Hermione's father, Mr. Granger, and Ron's parents, Arthur and Molly, were also waiting in front of Nine and Three Quarters Station. With.

What about Asia? Isn't she here?

Ivan glanced around, and when he was feeling strange, he saw Asia in a purple cloak walking in from the door of the station.

Ivan then remembered that Asia, who didn't have an invisibility cloak, couldn't teleport into the station like them, so naturally she had to be a step slower.

"What on earth is going on?" Seeing Asia really at the station, Ivan was completely confused. So why didn't he meet her in the first place?

Thanks to the book friend who has escaped alone, the driver of the Sun God, I will draw my sword for the emperor and reward him with 500 starting coins, and I will reward the sleepy and gluttonous monsters with 100 starting coins.
