In the old room, there was a faint mist through the window, as if someone had covered it with a thin layer of yarn.

Even if the tables and chairs are cleaned again, because of the existence of that layer of "yarn", it always gives people the illusion of being dirty.

But it must be said that although old Tom looks a little sloppy, he often gives people a nervous feeling. But when he treats customers and this bar, he is always sincere.

Although the Leaky Cauldron bar is really dilapidated because of its long history, on weekdays, old Tom would clean up all the places several times almost every day and never get bored day after day.

This is one of the reasons why many people come here for a few days when they need it.

So these two days, even old Tom had to take refuge in Diagon lane by Auror, but the room on the second floor was still kept clean.

At this moment, the door of this room is tightly closed, and occasionally there are a few strands of magic shocks visible to the naked eye. The protective magic left by Maka is like reminding anyone not to touch it at will.

What I have to mention here is that because of the heavy fog outside, the room will become a little gloomy and gray. Therefore, before leaving, Maka also lit the firewood pile in the fireplace, which not only made the house a little orange light, but also warmed up a lot at once.

A slight breath echoed in the room without trace.

"... dad."

"Dad... No, where are you? Don't leave me..."

"Don't leave me!"

After a series of vague calls, the girl who was huddled in the quilt suddenly opened her eyes, and several strands of curled hair stuck to her forehead wet with cold sweat.

The next second, Delphi pursed her slightly white lips and whispered:

"Dream?"

After a long time, she finally had this dream again, but it happened that after her plan failed. Perhaps for her, that is undoubtedly the last scene she wants to dream of now.

After lying on his back for a while, Delphi gently pushed aside the quilt and sat up, stroking some wet and sticky long hair behind his head with his left hand.

"Is this... The guest room of the Leaky Cauldron bar?"

Looking around at the layout of the room, she suddenly saw a silver cup on the bedside table. It can be seen that the cup is still steaming out, and a faint magic wave makes her understand that it should be attached with a magic spell for heat preservation.

A mellow smell of hot cocoa filled the air.

"Dad..." Delphi reached out to pick up the warm silver cup and whispered to himself, "look, am I right? You ten years ago and ten years later have really not changed. It's like... You can always deliver the most suitable thing when others need it most, even if you're not here."

With that said, she slightly lowered her head and sipped a mouthful of warm hot cocoa, which dissipated the chill brought to her by the previous nightmare.

However, when she went on to take the second sip, she suddenly found a very unexpected situation in the corner of her eyes.

"Cough, cough -"

Delphi choked on the second mouthful of hot cocoa and coughed violently, making her almost unable to hold the cup.

After coughing for a while, she looked down at her clothes and couldn't help whispering:

"Why... Pajamas?"

I don't know whether it was because of the good cough just now or for other reasons, Delphi's white face seemed to be slightly red.

After a little silence, I heard her murmur again:

"... is that a little inappropriate?"

In fact, Delphi also knew that her pajamas were originally deformed from her original clothes. With Marca's magic control, it was nothing.

But... It's a little inappropriate to perform deformation on the clothes worn by girls, isn't it?

"Although sleeping in the original combat suit is really uncomfortable..."

Even Delphi has always regarded Maka as his father, both now and in the future. But she is so old after all. Even if her father changes her clothes, she will inevitably feel a little shy.

A moment later, she shook her head, raised the silver cup in her hand, took a big sip, and flushed back the shame in her heart.

"Should he be downstairs?" Delphi glanced at the door. "I'm going to see him... Right away."

As soon as she opened the quilt, she picked up the magic wand placed on the pillow and changed her pajamas back to the short wizard's robe she usually wore.

But just after she put on her shoes, ran to the door and skillfully lifted the protective magic on it, she suddenly stopped her action when she just touched the door handle.

After a few seconds of freeze frame, Delphi seemed to think of something important and retracted his hand like an electric shock.

"No, no, I can't see him."

As she spoke, she shook her head, took a few steps back, and then sat back on the edge of the bed.

"If I had followed the original plan, I shouldn't be here now. But... The plan failed because I was stupid for a moment..."

"Yes! Why am I still here? What qualifications do I have to enjoy my father's arms?"

……

"... yes, so Kingsley plans to go to the Muggle queen again and try if he can direct the Muggle army himself."

"Well, the power of Muggles really can't be ignored. In this case, it's too wasteful not to borrow it. After all, London is also Muggle London... In order to cooperate more efficiently and try our best to solve the disaster, I think the queen should agree."

Next to the bar downstairs of the Leaky Cauldron bar, Maka is discussing with lupin about the plan to deal with it. Now there are crazy wizards everywhere in downtown London. No matter how strong they are, they are a drop in the bucket, not to mention that he still has Haier Bo to face.

Whether it is the order of the Phoenix, Muggle or himself, we need a plan as effective as possible.

But just then

"Well?"

Maka suddenly raised her head slightly and glanced at the ceiling.

"She seems to be awake."

"Oh, really?" lupin also looked around and said casually, "then go up and have a look. It's time to take good care of others!"

After a little meal, he continued:

"The girl helped us a lot in the counterattack before... If she didn't take the most difficult one away, it would not only be difficult for us to win so quickly, but also there would be huge casualties in the Muggle army."

"Of course, you don't have to say I'll care about it," Maka nodded. "Let someone inform Kingsley and Sirius as soon as possible about the things we just decided! I'll go upstairs first..."

As he spoke, he stood up, turned and walked towards the stairs. Lupin looked at his back in the bar, suddenly raised his eyebrows and added loudly:

"By the way! You can care, but don't care too much - as an excellent gentleman, it's not good to be playful!"

"Uh --"

Maka turned her head, turned her eyes at lupin, and then sighed helplessly.

"I'll tell you the truth, even if I'm so obsessed that I love everyone," he pointed upstairs. "This alone is absolutely impossible."

But I have to say that Delphi is really one of the most beautiful girls Marca has ever seen. Even compared with Meiwa, it can only be said that each has its own advantages.

So it must be admitted that the combination of Voldemort and Bellatrix really gave her an excellent appearance gene!

While casually thinking about these messy things, Maka stepped on the creaking stairs to the second floor, and soon walked to the door of Delphi's room and knocked.

It was the disarmed protective magic on the door that made him realize that the other party had awakened just now, so he didn't feel any surprise after seeing it.

But who knows, after Maka knocked on the door, Delphi, who obviously got up, didn't come to open the door - he could clearly feel that the other party was sitting at the end of the bed!

"Delphi... It's me, McLean."

Somehow, Delphi didn't seem to want to come out of it. However, after Maka opened her mouth, that is, a few seconds of silence, she couldn't help saying:

"I know... Dad, you go! Leave me alone -"

"Huh?"

Maka stood at the door, wondering secretly whether the other party was blaming herself for the failure of her plan. At the thought of this, it was difficult for him to open his mouth when he wanted to ask each other.

However, what should be asked must be asked anyway, and what should be asked for must naturally be asked for - this is for Luna.

However, considering Delphi's difficulty and her mood at the moment, it's better to be gentle!

"Delphi," she said through the door, "if you're worried about the failure of the plan, I hope you don't think about it... You see, there are always ways and opportunities, don't you?"

When Maka finished, the room was quiet again, and then Delphi said:

"No, it's not just to stop the failure of the calling ceremony... I... dad, you'd better leave me alone and let me be quiet!"

"But," Marca paused and finally nodded, "Well! Of course, be quiet... But I still hope you can return the time converter to me as soon as possible. You know, whether it's a plan to recover the failure or... We all need it."
