"What? Okay... But Luna, is she okay?"

"Er... I don't know. It seems that there should be no problem, but I'm not sure."

When Ginny hurried Luna back to her room with everyone and handed it over to Hannah for careful care, she thought about it and decided to risk going out and tell Hermione about it at this time.

After all, none of them is sure that Luna is all right.

"Neville, you can guard here alone first - don't worry, even if a corpse breaks through the barrier by force, and there is also a gravity trap I set up, you just need to stare to see if there is any fish that has slipped through the net. Be careful, remember not to spell... I'll go back and see Luna first."

"OK, I see." Neville raised his wand and nodded his head clearly.

"All right, let's go!"

Hermione also nodded slightly to Neville. Then she and Ginny left the peripheral border in the northwest of the ancient city and rode a broomstick to the church.

"By the way," Hermione asked as she flew, "Ginny, you just said it was the guy in the shadow we met on the road? Are you sure?"

Ginny shook her head when she heard the speech.

"In fact, I didn't really see it myself. It was Ron who saw it - but I did notice a creepy feeling at that time."

"Oh!" Hermione sighed, "Luna, too... Didn't Sarah tell us not to go to her room? And Luna is the only one to listen to Sarah directly. Why do you have to go?"

Hermione really loves and hates Luna's character of going her own way and being almost unaffected by others.

So far, Hermione has also received a lot of help and inspiration because of Luna's always accurate intuition. Unfortunately, this intuition without detours often makes Luna wander on the edge of danger. If you step into the air at any time, I'm afraid it's an abyss waiting for her.

Thinking of this, Hermione, who was lying on the broom accelerating, couldn't help raising her hand and stroking the hair blown to the back of her head by the strong wind, revealing a helpless expression.

Speaking of, because Luna "fainted" more and more times, she seemed to feel a little used to it.

"You can't get used to it," Hermione murmured in her heart. "When the corpse riots subside, you have to talk to her sometime... It's a reminder to myself while warning her."

Obviously, Hermione and Ginny want to go together.

……

Of course, not to mention Luna, at least in the case of the biggest problem at present - the corpse riots, the ancient city of Winchester is not a big problem at present.

With the magic barrier left by Maka and Safina's powerful combat power, it seems that it is not an impossible task to continue to guard the ancient city.

But at the same time, as Hermione worried, Sarah, who was still collecting information about the corpse when the riots broke out, was really in trouble.

Without the help of magic barrier, flying corpses attacked from the air while being attacked on all sides. Although the number is not more than that of ordinary corpses, they can pose a greater threat.

Unprepared, Sarah, who had just arrived in a small town at that time, had to rush to find a house under the cover of a group of alchemy dolls.

After that, she continued to trade the loss of dolls for time, which finally managed to gain a foothold in the sudden wave of crazy corpses with a hastily arranged alchemy array.

"It's rare that Maka praised me as one of the top masterpieces in the history of alchemy, but in addition to some alchemy learned from Phillips's notes, I am just as weak as an ordinary person... What 'masterpieces' is this?"

Sitting in this room, listening to the noise outside, Sarah can't help feeling a little depressed - the alchemy dolls can't be brought into the house. At present, most of them are consumed by the riot corpses one by one outside. This is equivalent to saying that her combat effectiveness is constantly decreasing.

Think about the efforts to make dolls day and night, but now nearly half of them have been lost in one day... If she hadn't taken away half of the dolls before leaving Winchester, I'm afraid the accumulation these days would have been completely destroyed.

It can be seen that the power that can be formed by Haier Bo's living corpses seems to have revealed the tip of the iceberg before.

When Sarah hid in the room protected by the alchemy array and remained silent for a long time, she finally said again:

"I see... Marca, I seem to finally understand what 'I want' is. Let me 'be a complete person', that's just Phillips's wish, that's not 'I want'. Or at least, this is just the beginning."

In fact, since Marca managed to let Sarah have the emotion that human beings should have, Sarah has always been in a state of some joy and satisfaction, but some confusion.

Although her original soul is not complete, in fact, she does not really belong to her own life. The years she has spent so far have been almost completely submerged in the shadow of Phillips hornheim who created her.

But for such a long time, she at least had a goal to support her to "live".

However, with the help of Maka, she finally achieved her "long cherished wish" in her heart that she could not tell who the master was, but the goal of letting her continue to live disappeared.

Life without purpose is undoubtedly terrible, because you don't even know what you should do.

But now, when Sarah felt that she might really die here this time, she finally understood something she had never thought of before.

When a special object is given life, it is no longer an object, and it is no longer special. Because she has become a member of all living beings.

"Yes, I'm not a masterpiece in the history of alchemy - maybe I was incomplete in the past, but now I'm just a human."

Sarah talked to herself as if she had been infected by Hermione the other day, and then she suddenly stood up from the floor.

"A human being will always grow up. There is no goal. Just look for it."

However, as soon as the voice fell, she heard a more noisy sound outside... There were more living corpses nearby.

"Oh! A human should be afraid of death... I want to live!"

Sarah chuckled, adding in her heart.
