"... the origin of Easter?"

Maka didn't care much about the little girl's behavior of constantly wearing a high hat. He is now a regular guest of the Three Broomsticks bar. Most of them are local wizards who know him... What's more, how many of the words spoken by a girl who is only a teenager at most will be more serious?

But to be honest, the question Sarah asked is really beyond the average wizard's ability to answer.

In the European magic world, Easter has existed since ancient times. The history of this festival is even much longer than Christmas.

If you ask a wizard who has studied the history of ancient magic a little, you may still hear the answer "Christmas originated from the Druids in the ancient European magic world"; But if you ask him the exact origin of Easter, the other party will basically be stunned on the spot.

In fact, the origin of Easter for wizards is quite insignificant. However, the story is full of love and hope. It is a very positive energy past, which has been unconsciously continued from generation to generation.

"Yes! The origin of Easter -" Sarah picked up the chocolate eggshell in front of her, looked at the shaky juice inside and said softly, "Mr. McLean, can you tell Sarah?"

"Well, yes, yes, I just know some... But if the story is told in detail, it's a little long?"

Maka smiled indifferently - when he was still studying in school, he liked the history of magic class very much, which was entirely because he was really interested in the history of witches. No matter what is studied, it is almost inseparable from the wisdom of predecessors, because a person's strength is always limited.

"This story starts with an ancient wizard named 'Baal'. It is said that he has a sister named yasta Lu..."

……

Although Marca intends to have a good relationship with Sarah, he is really so interested in telling stories. At first, the story was a little long. It was true, but he didn't really plan to tell it in detail.

However, even though he had already prepared a simplified version of the story of the origin of Easter, he did not expect that he could not finish it.

Because, just when he said that the heroine of the story, Ashtar Lu, made an important decision, he suddenly felt an inexplicable force in Sarah's body, which shook silently for a while. Then, his eyes seemed to be covered with a dense white fog, and then everything around him changed.

"Soul rules? No, it seems a little different..."

Maka looked around and looked at the white area. Suddenly, a wonderful sense of familiarity filled her mind - isn't this the mysterious space Dumbledore took him to see?

But in the next moment, the white fog in his sight condensed quickly. With the rapid gathering of fog, trees with luxuriant branches and leaves, green bushes and vibrant grasslands gradually change from fuzzy to clear.

When a winding dirt road appeared under his feet and the sky above his head became clearer, a picture of a forest path that was very different from the scene in the three broom bar was paved around him.

Needless to say, this is actually quite similar to the preparation process of watching memory with a meditation basin, but there are some differences.

"Is this... Alchemy?"

Maka looked down at her palm, subconsciously clenched her fist and felt the clear sense of power. Yes, this feeling is more detailed than the meditation basin, and even the sense of touch can be reproduced synchronously.

"I remember that some ancient alchemy books mentioned 'spiritual refining' corresponding to 'material refining', which should be it?" he said thoughtfully, "it's amazing. What's the origin of the little girl?"

If someone finds himself suddenly in a different place, I'm afraid no matter how determined he is, he will also have some sense of panic. This is the instinct of biological self-warning. Generally speaking, it is inevitable.

Needless to say, Marca is of course the same.

However, the reason why he was not moved at this moment was that he found that he could still clearly feel his body and everything in the three brooms bar.

For Maka, anything, including all her senses, can be deceived under the influence of some special method. But only the magic wave is the embodiment of the real material rules and the existence that the spirit cannot interfere with.

"That's interesting, but... What principle is it based on?"

Sarah's surprise attack made Maka think of a lot of things in an instant.

Including Dumbledore's brief meeting, including the previous research before the entrance of Nicole LeMay's Alchemy laboratory, and even various conjectures about material and spirit under the guidance of Ravenclaw in the past, there were some vague connections in his mind at this moment.

Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of a key, which makes those connections looming and unreal behind the door.

"Sarah hornheim, let me see what the hell you want!"

Maka nodded secretly, no longer immersed in her own thinking, but looked forward. Just in front of the path under his feet, two figures were slowly coming towards him, and now they were getting closer and closer.

……

Maka may be a little mysterious, but it's actually equivalent to being hit by a magic spell that can affect the spirit. At present, he can still clearly sense all the magic waves around his body, and even he can get rid of it at any time with the help of the power of soul rules as long as he wants.

But on Sarah's side, she doesn't look very well.

"What's going on..."

She was still holding the chocolate eggshell in her hand, and her eyes flashed over Marca again and again. It can be seen that Maka's expression is in a trance. It is obvious that she has been pulled into the state of spiritual resonance.

However, the only thing she can feel from Maka's soul is only one word - "heavy".

"Is it true that someone's soul can be 'heavy' to this extent?" Sarah frowned slightly, and her thoughts inconsistent with her appearance were running continuously. "I knew I should stick to the original idea, wouldn't it be good not to provoke this guy?"

As Maka speculated in the past, the spiritual refining in alchemy is staggered with the soul rules to a considerable extent. The so-called soul is originally an embodiment of "spirit" in the world, so the research on the two actually has a lot in common.

For example, there is a view in both studies: spirit is everywhere in the world, and the consciousness of all creatures is produced in the movement of spirit.

The spiritual refining in alchemy is to use a specific refining array to affect the movement of spirit, so as to achieve the purpose of alchemists themselves.

However, if you want to influence the consciousness of others with spiritual refining, it is often a great test for the alchemist's own willpower. If the spirit of the interfered object is too strong, it is easy for the alchemist to ride the tiger.

Spiritual resonance can't stop!

Sarah pursed her mouth, then suddenly closed her eyes and focused all her attention on her spiritual resonance with Marca.

Her only intention now is to immerse her consciousness into the "world" she has created, so as to ensure that the worst outcome will not happen.

……

Not to mention Sarah, she's probably so regretful that her intestines are green. At least Marca seems very leisurely.

Soon after following the two figures, he had realized what scene he had been brought into. In fact, these two are the brothers and sisters named "Baal" and "Ashtar road" in his previous story.

In that legend like story, Baal was an ordinary ancient wizard. His magic talent is not strong, even can be said to be some "weak" existence.

But compared with his brother, his sister yasta Lu, who is two years younger, is different.

Ashtaru has a natural Animagus talent. When other children trying to embark on the road of magic still follow the real wizard, she can complete the transformation independently when she is an apprentice from morning to night.

Yes, just like the chocolate rabbit that later generations must make at Easter, her Animagus form is a white hare without a trace of miscellaneous hair. And her character, just like her Animagus form, is pure in heart and full of vitality and vitality.

Since childhood, she has been the kind of child everyone likes - clever, sensible and smart. Not only her peers are willing to be her friends, but even adults love her very much.

Against the brilliance she radiated, Baal, as her brother, seemed quite insignificant.

But fortunately, Baal was not born with envy. For his excellent and eye-catching sister, he had only joy in his heart, and there was no other feeling.

Because of this, the brothers and sisters spent their childhood very smoothly, and they got along very well. They almost all thought that brother and sister would go on so steadily in their whole life.

However, in the year when my brother Baal was 20 and my sister Ashtar road was 18, a terrible disaster came without warning.
