"Despicable!"

Delphi waved her wand angrily before halbo disappeared. But a series of ice cones pierced through the faint figure's chest without hindrance, smashed into the back wall and made a series of roars.

The black-and-white wall collapsed into a huge hole.

"Thank you for your compliment, Miss Riedel. Then, good luck..."

After watching halbo leave freely, Delphi slowly dropped his arm holding his wand and stood in place in silence.

After a while, she turned her head slightly and looked at each other with Marca, who had always stood at the door.

"He's gone."

"Yes."

When Maka heard the speech, she nodded expressionless.

"When he is on the 'outer side' of the mirror, he will not notice the specific situation of the 'inner side' of the mirror."

"Oh?"

When Maka heard this, she frowned again.

"I came in through a loophole created when I came here last time. He didn't find it at first."

"What?"

Not long after Delphi said this, Maka's face finally changed. Seeing him continue to frown and smack his mouth, he seemed to say something suddenly:

"So it's my fault?"

"No, it's my fault," said Delphi, closing her mouth. "You were right just now - the 'last resort' was really 'clumsy'... No, it was stupid! Not only did I forget to finish what I should say, but I was stupid enough to fill in a letter to you... I know your strength very well."

Although we don't know how they can "play" with each other without prior preparation, there is no doubt that Maka and Delphi were all acting just now.

And, of course, it was all played for halbo.

"Forget it, let this go first! I still have a lot to ask you, but those are put aside for the time being..." Marca waved her hand and said, "did you have the means to leave it when you came in?"

"Stay."

"I'll keep it too... Let's go quickly! Go and see which works."

Maka glanced at the bed in the room. The empty quilt meant that there was no point in staying here.

After Maka and Delphi left the old house with holes, about ten minutes later, Haier Bo's figure appeared again over the city in the mirror space.

Immediately, a cold hum with suppressed anger sounded in the air, and the figure disappeared again.

……

At the same time, London watch side.

Still under the deep pit dug by Maka, two figures rushed out of it and fell on the ground next to the pit one after another.

"Let's go back to San Mungo first."

"Wait!"

Maka was about to go, but suddenly felt the back of the robe pulled. He could only stop and turn his head and look at it.

"What's the matter?"

"I... I'm not going to the hospital," Delphi said, looking away and slightly lowering his head. "I'll help in Diagon lane."

"No," said Marca immediately. "Didn't I say? I have a lot to ask you."

"My plan has completely failed due to previous negligence, so you can ask anything you want," said Delphi, suddenly looking up at Marca and whispering, "but can't you go to Diagon lane?"

"Why do you have to go to Diagon Alley?" Marca frowned when she saw her procrastination and refused to go. "What's going to happen over there?"

"No, not -"

Delphi quickly shook his head and then looked away again.

Then, Maka heard her suddenly turn the topic:

"Well... How did you realize that I was pretending to take refuge in Haier Bo? Obviously, it was my temporary plan... Even I didn't expect that Haier Bo would find out at the last minute of the plan."

Although Delphi's change of topic was somewhat abrupt, as she said, it was indeed a very confusing place for her.

Even though she quickly reacted and took the initiative to cooperate with Maka in an excellent play, she actually had more confusion in her heart.

Even now, she still feels a little incredible.

"Hmm?" although Marca was a little strange about her state, she shook her head slightly after thinking about it. "In that case, how can I notice... I just realized that there was something wrong in advance according to your performance."

When Delphi heard this, he immediately recalled:

"Because of the last letter I sent?"

"Well, there is also that reason in it - after all, even if you are more or less grateful to me for leaving you, the descendant of Voldemort, you won't think of supplementing me with such important information afterwards."

After a little meal, Maka continued:

"Of course, the most important thing is not this..."

"It must be said that you did really well, and even I could never do better than you. Because at the beginning, I really didn't expect... But if you really want to deceive me completely, you shouldn't be so perfect... I mean, if you really hate me so much."

Speaking of this, Maka couldn't help looking at Delphi before saying:

"And, you know, I've seen too many traces of 'I' in you... The use of cooling runes, the making technique of wands, the habit of hiding wands in sleeves, and the soul rule of 'Lust' - that should be the rule contained in the curse material I pulled out from Willie's body bit by bit?"

"It's really hard for me to believe that a person with my traces everywhere is the one who hates me most in the world!"

Finally, it can be said that this reason is completely Maka's personal idea, and there is no basis. But this is the last reason, but it is the key to his doubt.

When Delphi listened to him say this, he grasped his robe tightly, and suddenly his eyes were red.

Then she took a small step forward and whispered in a trembling voice:

"... dad."

"Oh, no, no, no, don't call it that --" Maka's face changed at that time. "I... well, you see, I'm almost as old as you now. This name... I really can't bear it!"

"But, Dad --"

Seeing that such a big girl was about to shed tears in front of her own face, Maka opened her mouth. Finally, she gently pulled her into her arms with a slight sigh and patted her head carefully.

"Well, yes, it's Dad..." he said softly with a stiff face. "Here's dad."
