The time converter is in hand, but Maka can't use it right away.
As far as Delphi's future is concerned, he will be seriously injured if he insists on using the converter to go back to the past and try to save Luna.
After that, the British magic world lost the only wizard who could destroy halbo's ambition, and there was no obstacle to the completion of the demon summoning ceremony.
Not to mention how many wizards and Muggles will suffer during the future terrorist rule of halbo, Maka herself will eventually disappear.
In order to avoid the future in Delphi's memory, Maka knew that she had to think clearly before talking about anything else, even if she was impatient.
However, reality is always full of contradictions.
Obviously, the longer it takes, the more variables will be, and the less likely he will be to save Luna's life.
"Yes, getting the time converter is just the beginning."
Maka, who had just returned to London, stood in the street with a light frown and a dignified expression. Seeing him calm down and think for a moment, he whispered to himself:
"In short, first find a place to study the time rules! Now with the converter, the backtracking within at least five hours can be used as soon as possible."
But just as he wanted to leave here and find a suitable place to implement his ideas, a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the sidewalk in front of him.
"... you found another converter after all."
Maka looked directly at the figure not far away and couldn't help sighing.
"How do you know, Delphi?"
Yes, it's Delphi, who should have stayed in the Leaky Cauldron bar, a "big" daughter Maka accidentally met not long ago.
As for Marca's question, Delphi, dressed in a short wizard's robe, quickly shook his head.
"Don't worry why I know, because I just know, there's no reason." she said seriously, "I just... I just want to tell you that everything you do is meaningless. I beg you, don't do these meaningless things... Dad, I beg you, don't do these things that will only hurt yourself."
Listening to Delphi's words, Marca was silent and didn't know what to say.
There is no doubt that no matter what Delphi says, he will not give up Luna. But in the face of Delphi pleading with himself, his heart became more and more heavy.
After slightly closing her eyes and calming herself, Maka opened her eyes again and looked at Delphi opposite.
"I'm sorry," he said. "Maybe you're right. What I'm going to do may indeed be very dangerous, even my own life. But no matter how dangerous it is, I have to go."
As she said this, Maka gave a little meal and then turned to say:
"But don't worry... Delphi, I will find a way to create the most perfect ending. Believe me, I will try my best to find the right way anyway."
"No!"
When Delphi heard this, he could not help clenching his fist with both hands and yelling at Maka:
"It's not 'maybe', it's not 'possible'! There won't be any 'perfect ending'! You can't do it, understand? Dad, you can't change all that!"
"You -" Marca looked at Delphi and paused again. "Why do you think I can't do it? In fact, many things have changed? Even if you stand in front of me now, isn't this the most obvious change?"
Marca's words made Delphi close her mouth involuntarily - was she persuaded by Marca? Are you aware of the changes in the past and the future because of Maka's words?
No, it seems that this is not the case.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Delphi dropped his head and said softly in a sad tone:
"Dad... You're wrong. I'm still standing in front of you until now, which means that many things haven't changed..."
After saying this, she suddenly sighed again, and her mood became more depressed.
"Dad, in fact, I know that you have never been calm since you lost miss Lovegood. It is only because there is still possibility, hope and many people need you that you forcibly maintain your superficial calm."
Delphi's eyes drooped and the tunnel was quiet:
"But Dad, calm down and think about it! With your real wisdom, think about why I came here and why I'm still here... With dad's intelligence, the answer is actually in front of me."
"Well, No. dad, maybe it's clear in your heart... If you can really change everything by relying on the time converter in your hand, I... Can't talk to you again, can I?"
As for this, Delphi suddenly raised her head again, and her bright and clear eyes met Marca's line of sight.
Then she walked a few steps forward and stood in front of him.
"Dad," Delphi said softly in a slightly trembling voice, staring seriously into Marca's eyes, "take a good look at me - what kind of consciousness do you think I came to you with!"
Awareness.
This is a very heavy word.
When the word comes out of Delphi's mouth, its meaning will become more heavy - to the extent that no one can easily carry it.
Yes, maybe Maka actually understands. He should know that once the future is changed, the Delphi who returns from that future to the present will no longer exist.
In fact, not long ago, in the mirror space created by Haier Bo, Delphi was ready to die with Muriel, the core of the demon calling ceremony.
Because the end of the calling ceremony means that great changes will take place in the future. In the future, she will not go back to the past at any cost, and the beautiful future will not belong to her at this moment.
This is Delphi's consciousness... She has been determined to die from the beginning.
"Dad... Rules are rules, and they will not forgive anyone. The future may be changed - there must be a limit, we just can't grasp that limit. However, the rules of time will never change - those who dare to stand in front of it and challenge it will be mercilessly crushed by it."
Delphi's words and sentences made Maka speechless.
He knew that the other party was telling the truth. Including the churning emotions in his heart, his efforts to pretend to be calm, and his stubbornness that almost ignored the facts in front of him.
Delphi is right. As long as she is still standing in front of herself, it means that the future has not been changed. No, there may be some changes, but it's not enough to reach the level he expected.
Maka looked at the girl in front of her and remained silent for a long time. At last, she silently stretched out her hand and patted her head.
"Then let me think about it again!"
With that said, Maka passed her by and walked along the road step by step.
Delphi subconsciously touched the place on the forehead that Marka had just photographed, then turned his back to Marka, covered his mouth and coughed gently twice.
She didn't make any sound, just so that Maka wouldn't find out.
However, it is obvious that Maka got the development of time converter, which still had some impact on her. It was also because of the aggravation of the injury that she realized in such a timely manner that Maka had made a time converter.
After two silent coughs, Delphi looked back and silently looked at the back of Maka.
"What are you waiting for?"
Suddenly, Marca, who was almost submerged by the fog, turned around and looked at Delphi and said:
"Hurry up!"
"Ah, yeah."
Delphi was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly trotted two steps, hurried to Marca's side, and then couldn't help reaching out and hugging each other's arm.
"Ah, this... Is not very good," Marcello gently pulled out his arm in embarrassment. "You see, you are so big after all... Aren't you?"
Delphi pursed her mouth and looked at Marca with some bitterness. Not long later, Marca was defeated in her lost eyes.
Maka raised her hand and said:
"Just the sleeves, no more."
Before the words fell, Delphi grabbed his sleeve and smiled at the corners of his mouth.
In the fog, the two almost high backs were gradually covered up and quietly disappeared on the other side of the street.
"Alas..."
