"Oh! My children, are you all right? I didn't expect to be separated from you for so long so early! I thought that day would come when you got married..."
The scene of parents and children reuniting after a long separation is always sad, not to mention under the current situation.
When a mother who retreated to the rear for a long time in order not to become a drag on the children finally met again with several children who stood up to the enemy in order to protect their relatives and their homes, even Rebecca, a young corpse of a different race, couldn't help but look at it.
He also has relatives, or once.
Even if the family affection in the eyes of the living corpse is always slightly different from that of human beings, it is obviously no longer impossible to have such empathy in him, who has become more and more mature in wisdom and emotion.
Of course, because today's protagonist is destined not to be Rebecca, even if he happens to be present at the moment, no one will care about his existence.
Because even Maka, who seemed to have deliberately left him aside to witness the scene, was surrounded by many "old friends" and had no time to pay attention to him.
"Mr. McLean, I heard that you disappeared some time ago and didn't come back until recently, which makes everyone very worried! But now you seem OK, at least on the surface you're still healthy - Lena is very happy to see you again."
"Yes! Bastard Maka, you... Well, anyway... If only you weren't dead."
Looking at the werewolf sisters in front of her, Maka couldn't help feeling that she hadn't seen them for a long time. For nothing else, because he had been able to see some changes in the two sisters.
Although her sister Lena was still quiet, when she saw Maka, there was a rare expression of relief on her once indifferent face. Obviously, as far as the sentence "everyone" she just mentioned is concerned, she is also one of them.
As for Lenny, who used to be very restless, the change is even more obvious.
"Tall?"
Maka looked at the little girl with great interest and stretched out her hand to gesture on her head. Although not much, measured by Maka's eyes, she is indeed higher than the last time she saw it.
What surprised Maka even more was that in the past, if he stretched out his hand and pressed it on her head, the grumpy little wolf girl would have blown her hair even if she was afraid of him.
Today, however, she twisted her neck and threw his hand slightly awkwardly after she had been patient with her small mouth for a long time.
"Lenny is still growing! At your height, Lenny will surpass you sooner or later... Don't be unconvinced when Lenny calls you a dwarf..."
The little wolf girl muttered, turning her face to one side as if she didn't want to see Maka, but then turned around again and again and peeked at Maka.
"Hello!"
After glancing at him several times, leniton paused and couldn't help whispering:
"Lupin said you need help here... My sister and I can fight, and we have learned magic during this time. If there is a shortage of people, we can certainly help."
"For whom?" Marca looked at her and asked.
Lenny tilted her head when she heard the speech.
"Help you!" She said so, but then she scratched her head again, slightly hesitating, "and help lupin, help Mrs. Weasley, help big white beard..."
"And help ourselves."
Her sister Lena touched her sister who had begun to break her fingers subconsciously, and then looked at Maka, as if to add for her sister.
Of course, maybe for herself.
"Well," Lenny also looked up at her sister, "help ourselves."
"It seems that you have been getting along well with Mrs. Weasley and them all this time." Maka nodded and knew that it was not easy to hear these names from Lenny.
It was at this time when Maka was slightly pleased with this that Mrs. Weasley, who was meeting Ron, Ginny and others not far away, finally ended the family meeting and walked towards Maka.
"Marca."
After hearing Mrs. Weasley's soft call from behind, Maka turned back. The next moment, he felt a warm coming - Mrs. Weasley hugged him hard.
"Boy... It's hard for you."
Feeling the temperature from people's arms, which has not been experienced for a long time, even Maka was stunned. After the whole body was a little stiff, he also raised his hands and gently hugged back.
When Mrs. Weasley stepped back and relaxed, he looked at each other's face and said:
"Thank you, Mrs. Weasley. But... I'm afraid I can't stand you."
"Nothing."
Mrs. Weasley shook her head slightly at Marca in the complex eyes of Ron, Ginny... And later Harry and Hermione. Her eyes glittered with perseverance on her calm and slightly kind face.
"I've heard a lot of things, but I believe in my vision and the time we spent together - that bit by bit can't be false! You've always been a very sensible and mature child, and you've always been silently watching Ron and them... Let's not say anything else. After all, I can't understand a lot of things even after listening to them, but at least, I know you can't blame Percy."
At this point, the Weasley seemed to recall something, raised his head slightly and whispered:
"I know that boy. He has always been a man who does not admit defeat. In his bones, he is also a real Gryffindor - a branch hat. He never makes mistakes, does he?"
"Yes." Maka was silent for a moment and finally nodded. "He was a warrior until the last minute. He is worthy of being a Gryffindor."
Although for Marca at present, even Percy's death is temporarily limited to what she has heard from the population such as Sarah. But this did not prevent him from showing his respect for the senior student he had contacted, tried to recover and successfully rescued.
At last, Maka saw that Mrs. Weasley finally raised her hand solemnly, patted her shoulder, and said with a sincere and slight sigh:
"Let's end this terrible disaster!"
"Good!"
Maka nodded.
At this moment, Maka, who seemed to feel something again, turned her head and let her eyes cross the crowd. Even if she saw it, several familiar faces appeared in turn.
Today is a big party.
