"Hermione, are you... Are you okay?"
Harry and they were led in by Sarah's Alchemy Doll - when a group of friends first saw Hermione resting on the sofa, they all gathered around and asked her about her current health.
Brova watched the scene from behind, paused a little, picked a chair nearby and sat down. After that, his eyes passed gently from Sarah and Delphi, two equally calm people, and finally picked up a newspaper on the tea table and read it carelessly.
He knew that it would take some time from the moment these young people greeted each other to the time when they could really start implementing the scheduled plan! During this period, all he can do is wait patiently.
"Yes, of course, I'm fine... You know, I have to thank Miss Geoffrey."
Hermione smiled wearily, and then the conversation turned and went straight to the point.
"You see now, and miss Geoffrey must have said something - Britain is more dangerous now than ever!" she looked at everyone carefully, "To tell you the truth, although I certainly can't compare with Miss Geoffrey and miss hornheim, I don't think I'm still as weak as I used to be... However, the facts have proved that I'm really far from strong enough. In the face of the enemy, I don't even have room to fight back -"
"I think it's just because you lack perception."
Although Sarah not far away was still busy with what she was doing, she was obviously listening as well. At this moment, she looked up slightly and said something casually.
But Hermione immediately shook her head.
"Lack of strength is lack of strength... The cruel reality is in front of me, and I can't make excuses for myself. Especially now - everyone must pay 100% attention to it, otherwise, next time may not be as lucky as this time."
After saying these words like self reflection and reminding everyone, she looked at Delphi standing behind in some confusion and hesitated:
"Er... Just in case, I still want to ask... Delphi, have you recovered your strength?"
"No."
Delphi shook her head gently, and a little hair fell silently from her ear.
"Then you?" Hermione was stunned and then said, "Oh, sorry! I don't have any impolite opinion of you, but... You know, it's really dangerous here now."
"I know," replied Delphi, "I understand what you want to say! But Hermione... I have a reason why I have to come. Moreover, I have to say that no one among us knows the specific situation of Britain better than me! You will need my existence."
In fact, her words could not be regarded as an explanation, because from beginning to end, she didn't seem to mention anything of practical value.
After a little pause, she raised the staff in her hand and said:
"In addition, please rest assured that I have some self-protection ability. At least, I probably don't need you to spend more unnecessary effort to protect me."
"Oh, I can prove that," Harry added at this time. "Before coming over, she had shown us a little hand... Well, or showed us the power of the staff."
Seeing that Harry also promised for her, Hermione couldn't help nodding subconsciously.
Yes, Harry's guarantee is naturally credible, and to say Delphi... Don't forget that Hermione and Luna's rule magic were brought in by her and Marca together! Even if she has become a complete Muggle now, Hermione doesn't seem to be surprised if she claims she still has any means.
Not to mention
"Delphi, is your staff... Made by Marca?"
"Yes!" Delphi nodded. "It was on the island - before Maka left, remember? It was made with the magic props he left you."
"All right."
Hermione couldn't help looking at the staff in Delphi's hand, and then said:
"Let's talk about this later... Delphi, did you just say that you know a lot about the current situation? There's a problem that has been bothering us all the time. Can you answer it for me?"
"What's the problem?" Delphi nodded. "Ask! I'll tell you as much as I know."
Hermione listened and nodded.
"In fact, on the whole, it is still the overall change at present," she said with a frown, "You may also know that some very terrible dark creatures have come to this land recently, and their strength is even higher than those high-level corpses made by halbo - for example, the enemies who almost killed me not long ago. Miss hornheim said that they are actually... 'demons'?"
When she mentioned it, she turned her head to look at Sarah, and Sarah shrugged here.
When Delphi heard the speech, he immediately said:
"Well... If you have to give those guys a title, they may only be 'demons', because they are basically the same' thing 'as those summoned by demon summoning."
Probably because she didn't know enough about Sarah, so she didn't know how Sarah knew this, but she didn't care too much about these little things.
After glancing at Sarah, Delphi continued:
"I'm sure you've heard of devil summoning. After all, it was by virtue of this taboo ancient magic that Haier Bo obtained the body now. I think Mr. McLean must have told you a little about this magic... Because its principle is too profound, I really don't have much confidence to explain it to you, so I'll just say it briefly Let's draw a conclusion! "
At this point, she paused a little, as if she were sorting her thoughts. A few seconds later, she went on:
"... demons, to be exact, are not 'magical creatures'. Well, they are not even' creatures' - I was told that their arrival is just a magical phenomenon based on the rules of the soul. Speaking of this magical phenomenon, it comes from the negative spiritual will of all creatures with magical talents in the world..."
As Delphi said this, he gradually felt a little trance, as if some specious memories had passed before his eyes. She seems to still vaguely remember that on a night of war, she snuggled up to her father and fell asleep listening to his stories.
However, has such a memory really happened?
