"Uncover the secrets of cutting-edge black magic" - this is a book that introduces a variety of terrible black magic in detail. If you want to talk about the research and analysis of black magic, this book is still the best in the field.

However, it is probably because its content is too detailed and accurate! So that not long after its publication, it was stopped directly, which made the survival of this book quite small.

It is the cradle of witches like Hogwarts that even this kind of book can be preserved - of course, even here, it was also carefully stored in the forbidden book area inaccessible to ordinary students. Later, it was directly received by Dumbledore in the principal's study.

But it was this dark magic book that amazed many black wizards. Its author ole Bullock was a famous anti dark magic scholar at that time. The reason why he compiled this book was to popularize the horror of black magic at the beginning and make some of its coping methods public.

Unfortunately, bullock is just an ideal researcher after all. He underestimated the dark side of people's hearts from the beginning. If the original wizard Council had not prevented him from publishing at his own expense in time, the number of black wizards today might have doubled.

Just one Voldemort is enough, isn't it?

"Hermione, you said... Marca should have studied the black magic in this book countless times?"

Harry looked carefully at the crisp yellow pages of the book in the room where he was asked, and his tone of voice was obviously frightened.

"That's for sure." Hermione nodded gently, and her eyes on the bookshelf were a little complicated. "He likes to do research. No matter what magic will make him curious. He hasn't changed since the first grade. And more importantly, he always likes to do it alone..."

While saying these words, a trace of memory gradually appeared on her face. But soon, when she inadvertently glanced in Luna's direction, she couldn't say anything behind.

At this time, Harry was still carefully looking at the big book. Naturally, he didn't notice this little detail of Hermione. But Ron, who already knew a little, immediately found something wrong with Hermione.

He looked at Hermione, who suddenly shut his mouth, and secretly glanced at Luna, who was turning the bookshelf, as if he knew something, and his eyes turned suddenly.

"Hermione... Do you doubt Maka?"

"How possible!"

Hermione suddenly turned around as if she had been trampled on the crook mountain.

"Don't I remember what Maka has always done for us and Hogwarts? Voldemort was defeated so quickly because of him. After knowing this, who might doubt him?" she said loudly, "I just want to say that he always takes everything into his own hands and does everything by himself. Even the discovery of Horcruxes is buried in his heart. He hasn't disclosed it to others once. He..."

As she spoke, Ron nodded his head in a serious manner, as if he were really just listening to Hermione's explanation. But his oblique eyes to Luna from time to time meant that his mind was not on what Hermione said.

As far as Ron's position is concerned, he undoubtedly supports Hermione among Maka, Hermione and Luna. His initiative to give up is more because of Maka. If Maka can accept Hermione in the end, that outcome may be the greatest redemption for him.

Therefore, compared with Hermione's scruples because of Luna's existence, Ron would like to see Hermione Granger who is still as firm and stubborn as before.

Even if... What's more is actually Ron's personal wish.

Maybe it's because the impulse aroused by Ron slowly subsided over time, or maybe it's because Luna was attracted by her words. In short, Hermione finally noticed what she was saying after talking a lot about Marca.

"... well, all in all," Hermione took a quick breath and temporarily pressed down her thoughts, "I found this book here, and the production method of Horcruxes described in detail in it may be the reason why Voldemort was able to revive. Although... Although Marca didn't mention it to us, since we found it ourselves, why don't we try to study it?"

At this point, she paused a little before continuing: "It can be seen from the description in the book that this is obviously a very powerful and evil dark magic. It is probably for this reason that Maka has never told us. However, I don't want to be protected by him all the time - Voldemort can't come back for the time being. What should we wait if we don't work hard now When will you try again? "

"You're right," Harry, who was buried in reading the contents of the book, immediately raised his head. "I saw that this passage introducing the Horcrux wrote that dividing his soul and injecting it into the object can create the Horcrux. After the Horcrux is made, if the maker itself dies, he can retain the soul in his body and wait for the opportunity to be reborn."

"... and as long as we find a way to destroy the Horcrux, we can break this evil black magic!" Hermione continued. "Yes, I didn't expect that even the cracking method was written in this book at the beginning."

"So finding a Horcrux is the biggest problem?" said Ron.

"No, I'm afraid it's more difficult than to find it," Hermione reached out and turned a few pages of the book floating in front of her, pointing to one of the lines. "It's written here. In order to make the Horcrux difficult to destroy, the black wizard usually casts as strong a magic spell as possible... If it's Voldemort, the magic above is absolutely very powerful!"

"In other words, even if you find it, you won't be able to successfully destroy it?" Harry thought with a frown, and suddenly his spirit was shocked. "No, we still have Gryffindor sword! If you want to destroy it, it must not be a problem!"

"Oh, good idea!" Hermione nodded. "Then, the key is how to find it..."

Just as Hermione wanted to say something about her conjecture, Harry suddenly stretched out his hand and motioned her to wait first.

"Hermione, haven't you ever thought of asking Marca directly?" he said suspiciously, "since Marca has already known about the investigation of Horcruxes, he must also --"

"I thought!" Hermione interrupted him, but her expression was a little tangled. "But do we really have to rely on Maka to move forward? Is that really good? I believe you also feel that Maka was forced to run all over the world when dealing with Voldemort, and he had to do everything alone... He worked too hard!"

At this point, she and Luna looked at each other and then said, "so, after discovering this book, I found time to discuss it with Luna. She and I both felt that we should help Maka as much as possible and can't let him fight alone!"

With Hermione's words, Luna nodded slightly, as if she agreed with Hermione.

"Voldemort failed again. There is no safer time than now."

"Oh, that sounds good," Ron scratched his scalp. "We should work harder, of course, after the o.w.ls exam..."

Seeing that they all reached an agreement soon, Harry still felt it was inappropriate - Marca's ability was there. If he hadn't found the Horcrux, could he find it first?

Perhaps it is because the understanding of the actual situation is still too one-sided. Even Harry, who is somewhat hesitant, has never thought whether Marca would hide some other things.

After all, according to the description in the book uncover the secrets of cutting-edge black magic, almost anything can be used as the raw material for making Horcruxes. Just finding it is a big problem. How can they know that a mountain of unknowns are buried behind it?

"Well, let's talk about it first!" Hermione put the book back on the shelf, then turned and said, "we should go to the auditorium for dinner. If we don't go again, there will be no dinner..."

"Oh! I'll wait for you to say that!" Ron clapped his hands. "I'm starving."

Before long, Harry left the room with a little doubt and followed the other three. Before walking out of the door, he looked back slightly and looked at the deepest bookshelf from a distance.

This research room full of werewolf statues is as dull as it was at the beginning. When you look at it at the door, you can only see a vague gray.

"Harry, what are you doing? Come here -"

He held the door handle and hesitated slightly. After hearing the call of his good friend Ron, he snapped and closed the door tightly again. As he left the brass door handle, the door leaf of the response room immediately melted into the wall and disappeared quickly.

"Coming!"

Harry turned to answer, then shook off his legs and ran after Hermione and others to the auditorium. From the window hole he passed by, we can see that the sunset has set, and there is only a slight blush on the horizon, which is being swallowed up by the coming night.

"... no, maybe it's really because it's too difficult to find! Or it's hidden in some very dangerous place by Voldemort... Well, it's possible." he thought secretly as he ran, "I should vent before I find it. This is not what I should do!"
