"Those guys... there are more of them."

When Maka took Luna into the fog, what he saw was a mess.

The war has spread to all parts of the city. The Muggle army was forced to evacuate due to heavy casualties. A fire dragon was flying through the air, chasing five black-eyed wizards.

The whole situation shows the determination to make a final decision.

However, no matter how the situation changes next, what Maka has to do now will not change.

Returning to St. Mungo's with Luna, the two hurried upstairs to the ward on the fifth floor. When he saw that the door was closed tightly and there was protective magic on it, he knew that at least there was someone inside.

Yes, at this time, someone will definitely go out and join the battle. At the very least, Harry is definitely not here anymore.

Maka didn't bother to knock on the door, she casually released the protective magic and opened the door and walked in.

"Maka!"

"I know I saw it on the way back." Seeing that Ron was the first one to rush up, Maka couldn't help but reached out and patted his shoulder, "Very good, you guys can resist leaving here, this is undoubtedly the best thing I can do."

It’s a scene I hope to see. Now, don’t worry, I will find a way!”

As he spoke, he looked at Hermione, who was leaning silently against the wall.

Obviously, when Luna followed him into the ward, she was completely stunned. Even all the other friends present couldn't help but froze when they saw Luna, but Hermione

Undoubtedly the most shocked person among them.

After all, besides Maka, the one here who knows the most clearly about a certain "fact" is definitely Hermione. Even Luna herself has no idea what "happened" to her.

"Lou...Luna? Haven't you already..."

"Hermione!"

Seeing that she was about to express the questions in her heart subconsciously, Maka immediately interrupted her and then raised her index finger in front of her mouth.

"Shh, don't ask anything," Maka said, "Anyway, Luna is back, that's enough, isn't it?"

With Hermione's intelligence, just a little bit, she immediately realized that there must be some unspeakable secret. But as Maka said, in short, Luna is back, isn't that enough?

"Um."

Hermione didn't say anything else, she just ran over quickly and hugged Luna tightly.

Maka looked at Hermione, who looked excited, and Luna, who was suddenly hugged but still in a daze, and couldn't help but nodded slightly.

"You guys stay here and wait, I'll be back soon." After Maka heard what he said, Hermione quickly turned her head and looked over, and immediately waved her hand, "Don't worry, this time it's really...

A little while! Fifteen minutes at most!"

Having said that, seeing Hermione turning her head away somewhat reluctantly, he turned around and walked out of the ward.

However, let alone fifteen minutes, Maka had been out for less than five minutes. Soon, everyone saw the door being opened again, and then he re-entered everyone's sight.

"Hermione, Ron... have you seen Delphi?"

"You mean, Miss Fisher?"

When Hermione was still confused, Ron immediately answered him:

"She came back once, but after we received the message from Lupine at the Leaky Cauldron, she left first."

"gone?"

Maka now has a headache and Delphi woke up much earlier than he expected!

…

"Why did dad let me fall asleep there? What was he going to do?"

This question has been lingering in Delphi's mind for a long time, but he has never been able to find a definite answer.

When she thought about it, Maka might have gone to save Luna and still used the time turner. So, was she worried that she would find a way to thwart his plan?

Well, if I had to say it, maybe! She would be unwilling to use Hermione's hand to entangle Maka, and she would naturally want to use other methods to try a second or third time.

From this perspective, indeed, what Dad did was not wrong.

However, would Dad really rather risk serious injury than rescue Miss Lovegood? Could he just...

"...Don't you think about my feelings any more!"

"boom!"

With a loud noise, a bird made of ice crystals suddenly flew across the street and directly hit the spherical shields of three black-eyed wizards.

At the same time, Delphi suddenly waved his magic wand forward, and a large swath of biting cold wind instantly hit the three "black balls" that were knocked away.

For a time, the sudden drop in temperature caused the street and the buildings on both sides to become mottled with frost. The three black balls were directly covered with a large amount of ice.

"Bang! Bang bang!"

When the black ball flew out and landed on the road, the ultra-low temperature immediately caused cracks in the shield, and then it shattered together with the ice crystal shell.

The cooling rune was taught to her by her father personally, and had allowed her to overcome many crises. But this time, she was venting rather than fighting.

"If dad finds out, maybe he will give you a good lecture? Such a wasteful way of using it..."

Delphi panted and muttered to herself. After seeing that the three black-eyed wizards were no longer moving, she stretched out her hand and called the ice crystal giant bird over.

Soon, she sat on the back of the bird and flew high, and then landed on the top of the tallest building nearby.

"Bang."

When the giant bird landed on the edge of the roof, Delphi lightly jumped to the ground, and then sat down on the corner of the roof. She saw her legs hanging outside and fell into silence.

Yes, she does feel that even if the "dad" of this era is similar to the future, there seems to be something missing. However, after all, there is a gap of more than ten years, which is almost inevitable.

Therefore, even if Maka actually knocked her out, she would not be able to change from love to hate.

She was just worried about whether her father would be able to come back safely...or whether he would still be as seriously injured as she remembered and almost never come back.

Therefore, even if Delphi was not in the mood to come out to deal with those black-eyed wizards, she still came out because she didn't want to stay in the ward and wait anxiously with everyone!

"call"

After more than ten minutes of looking at the city without saying a word, she reached out and touched the crystal cold body of the ice bird beside her, and sighed quietly.

After all, isn't it still her incompetence as a daughter?

In fact, Delphi's real age this year is even about a year older than Maka. But look! She is almost carefree, with only her father in her heart, and she is determined to die.

But it seems like nothing has been accomplished.

She had just confirmed that the mirror space of Haierbo had been completely sealed by the opponent, and she could no longer enter. And this meant that even if she wanted to fight desperately, she would not be able to do so.

Enter through the door.

Aside from venting her anger and killing some soldiers, and then anxiously waiting for her father to return, what else could she do?

The next moment, Delphi unconsciously touched her chest, but soon she shook her head feebly.

"Let's go!"

She patted the ice bird, and then suddenly rose into the air and landed accurately on the giant bird's neck. When the ice bird spread its transparent wings, with just a wave, cold wind blew up.

"Delphi..."

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind, but it was still clear despite the strong wind during takeoff.

"Wait a minute."

"dad?"

Delphi, who was on the bird's back, quickly turned around and looked at the roof behind with a surprised look on his face. He saw the figure wearing a dark green wizard's robe standing alone, looking straight at him.

"……dad!"

She no longer cared about fighting, and immediately jumped off the bird's back, running to Maka's side in three steps and two steps at a time. Then, she saw her checking Maka up and down.

Then he sniffed and threw himself into Maka's arms.

"You...do you know how I felt when I woke up? How dare you...how dare you just leave like that! You...you don't want your life!"

What changed history, wasted efforts, and was powerless, Delphi put all these things aside. As long as she could see her father standing in front of her, it seemed that nothing mattered anymore.

On the other side, Maka patted her back gently, with a slightly complicated expression on her face.

"Delphi, it's okay... Look, I'm fine! I wasn't injured, and I didn't die. I changed the ending that couldn't have been worse..."

"etc!"

When hearing Maka's words, Delphi finally seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly raised her head. If Maka hadn't raised her head in time, Delphi, who was leaning on her shoulder, would have almost died.

The head was pushed into his face.

"Why... why am I still here? What on earth did you do?"

"Oh, I didn't do anything big. In fact, Luna's life and death have nothing to do with you, right? Otherwise, do you think you can still be the same after you have done something evil to her?

Unscathed?"

"But"

"I understand what you want to say," Maka raised her hand and patted her shoulder, "I know you want to ask why I was not seriously injured, but you were not erased by the rules of time. Well, the answer is actually

It's simple, because everything you know actually didn't happen... you just used the time turner and then went back in time and came to me, that's all."

As he spoke, he took a step back slightly, then looked at Delphi and pointed at her chest.

"I guess your name is engraved on it, Delphi MacLean...am I right?"
