"Teacher, I contacted a guy named Martin some time ago - he seems to be your apprentice. So, according to the teacher's last request, I stared at him secretly for some time, but..."
In a cabin on the beach, a small figure is sitting in the bedroom. On the wall opposite the figure, the eyes of the characters in the portrait flickered with black flames.
"Martin..."
The man in the canvas suddenly opened his mouth, but he saw that his whole body was still motionless. Only a pair of lips opened and closed slightly, and a chilling empty voice came out.
After repeating the name, the voice said quietly:
"You don't need to monitor this person. He is different from other apprentices and has other uses for me. Well, you can continue to monitor other apprentices except him. If necessary... As the monitor assigned by me, you can decide whether to clean up some useless people."
"Yes, I see, teacher!"
"In addition, remember to be careful... Although I can make that McClane not have much time to study the secret changes in the magic world for the time being, if some things are too conspicuous, I don't think you can escape from him. Hum... I have to say that you little guys are far from that young man... Don't be careless."
The short wizard seemed to be a little unconvinced and silent for a few seconds, but finally he bowed his head honestly.
"... yes."
However, it seemed that the owner of the voice in the portrait had not heard his answer at all. As early as he was silent, the pair of black eyes had already faded.
The short wizard sat in front of the picture frame for a little while. Seeing that the portrait in the picture was still, he lifted his hood and hammered his backhand at the bedside table with a dull sound of "Dong".
"Isn't that Marca McLean? Although the boy is really a genius, he doesn't make me look like... It's just a pile of garbage in front of that guy?"
With that, he knocked again, then got up with a look of discontent and left the bedroom.
Obviously, the little wizard was the dwarf who ran into Martin at the sleeping dragon bar in the black market.
Because of his natural ability to see the soul, he has more favor than other apprentices in front of Haier wave, and even has the right to monitor and even deal with those disobedient colleagues.
To be honest, this right is indeed great - although in halber's opinion, it may not make much difference whether he accepts more or less apprentices.
The dwarf wizard who went to the outside stood for a while in the humble living room and sulked for a few minutes. Then he took a wooden cup to the bucket outside the house, scooped a cup of water and drank it.
It can be seen that he doesn't seem to have much requirements for his life. Drink a glass of water when you are thirsty, eat some bread when you are hungry, and there are almost no daily necessities in your place.
It must be said that no one who came here to see such a scene would think that this dwarf wizard was an outstanding talent who was proficient in both magic medicine and modern alchemy.
Of course, the reason why this guy will study these two disciplines at the same time is not for kingaron.
In fact, he only studied them deeply in order to find a way to fundamentally solve his natural defects.
Unfortunately, even if he tried to turn himself into a werewolf, he could only turn into a "dwarf werewolf" on the full moon night - it was a little taller than he normally was, but it was just a little, that's all.
For this reason, he had to prepare enough wolf venom for himself every month on weekdays. It was not worth the loss.
Until then, when he wandered around the beach one night to dispel a lot of depression accumulated due to magic research, halbo appeared.
After just three days at his house, halbo easily improved the shortcomings in his blood.
Now, he can maintain a normal person's physique for at least five days a month, and this time continues to extend with the fit of his blood and body.
When he finally got what he wanted, he naturally had an unparalleled gratitude to Haier Bo. In addition, his talent was really outstanding. Haier Bo accepted him as an apprentice before leaving.
Seriously, just listening to this acquaintance process is really a good story. Unfortunately, the two protagonists in this story are not good people.
Not to mention halbo, just the dwarf wizard.
Perhaps it is because people have been discriminated against since childhood, so that an extraordinarily distorted value has gradually formed. If someone is kind to him, he may not appreciate it; But if someone treats him badly, he will redouble it.
What's worse, he is not only grumpy, but also jealous. Even for those who are not as good as themselves, he can always find something better than himself from each other. If not, there is a natural gap for him to hate each other.
So it's not easy for Haier Bo to make him feel heartfelt gratitude.
At present, his jealousy of Marca made him angry again, and what made him more angry was the admiration of his respected teacher helbo to that McClain.
Can't you really compare with that boy anywhere?
As usual, he staggered along the rocky beach, kicking the stone shells at his feet angrily as he walked, imagining them one by one as the hateful Marca McLean.
"No, I heard that McLean knew nothing about alchemy... At least my alchemy must be much better than him!"
But on second thought, modern alchemy really has nothing to make him proud of. Apart from the dead Nicole LeMay, where is there a real alchemist at the end of the day?
As a wizard who has deeply studied modern alchemy, he knows this very well.
"Damn --"
Suddenly he stretched out his foot again and kicked a shell into the sea. Then he stood there and took a few deep breaths.
Even though he is usually hot tempered, he knows when to make trouble and when to stop. Without this endurance, he would not have achieved this achievement.
You know, no matter it's magic medicine or alchemy, it can't lack patience!
After tidying up his mind, his angry face calmed down when he was ponton, and only a trace of coldness and malice remained in his eyes.
"Those two pure blood who always ignore the teacher's orders... Let's vent on you today."
Before the words fell, he was twisted and disappeared on the beach.
……
Because halbo brought the formation that guided the meteorite to the door of Hogwarts, Maka spent a lot of time and energy trying to deal with it.
As halber said to the dwarf wizard, it was he who forcibly restrained Maka, which enabled apprentices such as Martin to act in the dark.
However, even so, the power of the order of the Phoenix is not a decoration.
Since Dumbledore handed over the power formed by him to Maka, it has undergone some adjustments. Old members quit and new members joined.
In general, the main staff is indeed much less than Dumbledore, but Maka has attracted more ordinary members under the order of the Phoenix.
Up to now, the most in the order of the Phoenix is not the combatants, but the almost ubiquitous investigators. Not to mention anything else, lupin and Sirius, who were originally hiding in the dark, have now become in-service Aurors of the Ministry of magic. It can be seen that Maka attaches great importance to the value of "eyes".
Therefore, it is not easy to avoid the sight of the order of the Phoenix.
That evening, in the Auror Office of the Ministry of magic, Lupin was doing his old job - sorting out the intelligence data recently collected from various channels.
"Sirius, don't be idle there! Now there are more and more data. I can't finish screening even if I'm busy all night... If you have nothing to do, come and help me deal with some!"
"Huh?"
Sirius, sitting on the other sofa, tilted his legs, shook his coffee cup and shook his head lazily.
"No... I wandered around all night yesterday. I can't sleep today. I'm so sleepy now! Do you want me to help you with sobering agent?"
"What's wrong?" lupin turned over the documents on the table and didn't raise his head. "If you drink too much, Maka can detoxify you, but it's just diarrhea for a few days... Huh?"
He was talking casually when he suddenly seemed to see something valuable in the intelligence materials.
After a while, he picked up his pen and quickly wrote on the information.
"All right!" lupin said while writing. "You don't have to help me... Look, the task you're responsible for has been found by yourself!"
After writing a line of words in a hurry, he picked up the wand at the table and waved it to Sirius. The data automatically floated in front of each other with his actions.
"Copy it yourself after reading it, and then put the original into Kingsley's file basket for me - you know which one!"
Sirius, with his legs cocked up, immediately took over the information and looked through it carefully with a frown. When he finished reading it all, his eyebrows were obviously tighter.
Not long after, Sirius murmured to himself:
"At this point... Dead?"
