At Hogwarts School Hospital, Mrs. Pomfrey was the real master. Even Marca and Dumbledore were polite to her. As we all know, although Mrs. Pomfrey treats people harshly, she is sincerely considering the patients.
When it comes to love for this school and all the students, she will never lose to anyone.
Otherwise, with her treatment level, even if she can get a very high salary and courtesy everywhere, why do she have to deal with a group of naughty devils with a constant salary in Hogwarts?
After honestly apologizing to Mrs. Pomfrey, Maka immediately left the ward. As for Sarah, who didn't have to stay in the school hospital to pretend to be ill, of course he took it with him.
A moment later, I was in the room when I asked.
"... Sarah, this conjecture needs you to help me prove it. If my conjecture is wrong, you may experience 'some' emotions; and if my conjecture is confirmed... I'm afraid it means that your problem will be more difficult to solve than I thought."
In this empty new room, Maka squatted on the floor, sketching the rune matrix with strokes, and spoke to Sarah standing aside.
If Snape were here as like as two peas, he would be able to find out that the map was exactly the same as the one painted by Malfoy in the mango.
"If you don't mind, I think I'd better tell the truth first," said Marca. She suddenly stopped her work and smiled back at Sarah. "In fact, I still hope my guess is correct. After all, it's better for me..."
Marca's so-called "truth" seems to be full of selfishness, but Sarah doesn't seem to care too much.
"Whether you succeed or not, your actions are helpful to me. As for whether your conjecture can be successfully confirmed in me, it's not up to you to decide, is it?"
"Ah, that's true..."
Maka nodded, and then continued to bow his head to draw his formation. On Sarah's side, while staring at Maka's back, she recalled the "guess" mentioned by Maka just now.
……
Just about ten minutes ago, when Maka and she first came here, they continued the unfinished conversation in the ward.
At that time, Marca mentioned with Sarah the conclusions he had observed in Draco.
"Sarah, I think what we often call 'love' and 'sin' actually come from the same source," Marca said at that time. "And the only source may be 'desire'."
"Moreover, both should be out of control desires for some reason, which is an extreme manifestation of will... That is, they themselves are the same thing, and there is no difference."
"As for why people treat them differently, I think it's just because people take the initiative to impose good and evil standards on them according to their own needs."
When speaking of this sentence, Maka thought for a moment, and then immediately put her hand.
"Of course, I'm not saying that it's wrong to do that," he explained. "It is precisely because people need to restrict their behavior that they can specifically distinguish good from evil as clearly as possible. I'm afraid people have clearly realized that 'desire' is a deep-rooted existence that affects everyone all the time."
"Or in other words, it is with us at all."
Maka's saying this is actually reminding Sarah that the so-called "desire" may be a part of the soul, even the soul itself.
And just think about it, you can understand that people's emotions are not an external expression of desire?
"Therefore, I have something here, its characteristics may be able to check your soul." after pointing out that, Maka took it out of her waist pocket, "It seems that this thing can expand the specific 'sin' in people's soul... As long as there is a desire in your soul, no matter how small that desire is, it can accurately capture it."
At this point, Maka shook her head again.
"Of course, for your soul... I actually have a worse guess here." he said, "you once said you were a 'defective product'? I think you might be right to call yourself..."
"Really?"
Sarah doesn't feel much about it because she's already prepared for it.
At that time, she stared at the gem in Maka's palm for a while. She was good at spiritual alchemy. She could feel that there seemed to be a very special energy in it, but because Maka's Rune matrix firmly imprisoned it, the feeling was quite vague.
At that time, Maka thought about it again, and then suddenly said, "by the way, if my guess is correct, maybe we can try another method. Of course, it will be more dangerous than the current method -"
"Yes."
At that moment, Sarah's answer was concise and straightforward.
……
However, compared with Sarah's desire for emotion, Maka has other ideas.
He had promised to help Sarah and make her a "complete life", which naturally had his selfishness. If not, Sarah's help in saving people won't make him promise a troublesome thing that won't do him any good.
In fact, as he observed Draco, that energy has the characteristic of arousing desire. According to Draco's previous performance, it is all related to the monument of bewitchment.
That's why Marca pressed Draco on Voldemort's head.
On this basis, as soon as he thought of the next test delivered to him by the bronze eagle, he couldn't help but have some other considerations.
"If it's really what I think, how to deal with the test of Ravenclaw may have a clue..."
In the middle of the room, Maka was secretly considering while drawing an array.
Because this array was just drawn once this afternoon, he is drawing very fast now. Without making Sarah wait too long, he added one last stroke to the array, and then he immediately stood up.
"Come and stand in the middle," he waved. "In a moment, I will inject some energy into your body. If I feel something wrong, tell me immediately. Of course, if I detect something abnormal, I will immediately pull all the energy out of your body."
Sarah heard the speech, silently nodded her head and went to the center of the formation.
Maka took out the staff outside the array. When Sarah signaled that he was ready, he immediately waved the staff and pumped the energy stored in the gem into the array.
Suddenly, an invisible shadow continued to extend forward in Maka's perception like a silk thread, silently connected with Sarah's forehead.
Maka, this is also her first attempt, so she draws very little energy. As soon as he starts the rune matrix, he can peel them out immediately in the blink of an eye.
However, there are always dangers. This experiment can not be replaced by other things. It must be an emotional "person" like Sarah who is an effective experimental object.
At the moment that a trace of energy could touch Sarah, Maka immediately felt a familiar magic wave. He knew that the energy was working.
Unfortunately, I don't know if it should be said. As Maka expected, the activation of energy didn't bring any change to Sarah. Her expression was still calm and her eyes were still clear.
At present, there are only two possibilities: one is that there is too little energy to produce such a rapid response; The second is that Maka's conjecture has been confirmed.
Of course, since there are two possibilities, Maka does not intend to interrupt the experiment.
He continued to draw more energy and instill it into Sarah, while his eyes were focused on Sarah's expression.
In Marca's induction, the magic fluctuation in Sarah's body has changed a lot. At such a close distance, he could clearly feel that Sarah's magic became more and more obscure.
That is the proof that its own magic is attached to the energy of the bewitching monument. Although the change is very slow because there is little energy instilled in the past, it is real.
"Sarah, do you feel different from usual?"
Maka asked while observing continuously.
"Different feeling?" Sarah, who was standing in the array, blinked and seemed to feel it more carefully. Then she replied, "I can detect the energy... Although I don't see anything, I can detect that it keeps accumulating in my body... And makes me stronger."
"Can you use it?" Marca continued. "I mean, that energy..."
"I... well, I don't really know," Sarah thought again. "I just feel that I'm getting stronger, or I have a power I didn't have before... Maybe that's the energy you said..."
Maka nodded after listening.
"What about emotion?"
"No feeling."
Sarah answered the last question neatly, but it undoubtedly means that Maka's conjecture has been confirmed.
"Oh, well..."
Although Sarah's performance shows that the energy of the bewitching monument is completely harmless to her, Maka can't risk leaving it in her body because of this.
After Sarah answered, Maka immediately put the staff against the array at her feet and started it.
"I'm sorry, Sarah..." Maka whispered while running the rune array to peel off the energy. "Although I can see through my soul magic that your soul is not incomplete... However, the results of the experiment show that it seems to be disabled..."
"No, wait! Why did you..."
