"...You should have received the message from Diagon Alley, right? Are preparations related to evacuation in progress?"

In the suburbs of London, in the Quidditch Museum, Maka, who had just arrived, was having a conversation with a middle-aged wizard named "George Byron."

This man was a "companion" that Bill and Charlie met when they were searching for rescues. At that time, like the Weasley brothers, he was running around to help many refugees.

As a former Auror of the Ministry of Magic who retired due to injury, he always believes that he has the responsibility and obligation to protect the elderly and the weak, even though he is now unable to participate in combat due to severe nerve damage in his arm.

"Yes," said Byron, who had a double beard, "we are already organizing evacuation here... However, Mr. MacLean, there is really no problem in terms of safety by arranging the evacuation of refugees from London at this time.

?"

In fact, when it comes to the safety of evacuation operations, the museum's evacuation site is definitely safer than the other two evacuation sites because it is very close to the suburbs. It can even be said that they can send the refugees out of London at any time.

Therefore, Maca understands that the reason why Mr. Byron asked this safety question is actually to consider the overall situation. He is not just worried about the refugees in the museum, but for all ordinary people who have suffered disasters.

of.

"Well, there are definitely risks," Maka said very frankly, "but according to my current speculation, in the next period of time, Haierbo will probably come up with more dangerous things...more

What's more, most of the enemies in London have been eliminated, so there is no better time than this!"

"Indeed," Byron nodded, and then said again, "Don't worry, Mr. McClain! After most of the people on our side have been sent out one after another, we will let some capable rescuers go to help the other two.

Evacuation work at an evacuation site.”

"Then, on behalf of the other refugees, I would like to thank you for your help!"

Because Lupine had sent the news ahead of time, Maka didn't have much to say to the other party. The two of them only chatted briefly under the "Hunters" tapestry in the Quidditch Museum.

, Byron temporarily excused himself and left because he was in a hurry to do something.

But just when Maka was about to check on the refugees a few more times and then leave, a clear tremor and fluctuation made his expression stagnant.

I just said that there would be danger next, but I never thought that this... it seems that the danger has already arrived!

"I'm leaving first. Mr. Byron, I don't think you need to help the Leaky Cauldron or the hospital. Getting all the refugees out of London as soon as possible is the most important thing at the moment."

Having said that, Maka immediately left the Quidditch Museum without further delay. The fluctuation just now was really too obvious, and he had to go quickly to see what happened.

And more importantly, Maka had just discovered that the inexplicable shock should have spread from St. Mungo's. Since it was not clear whether Delphi had left there with the team, he was naturally inevitable

Feeling a little worried.

"Did Haierbo come out? No... the wave was very strong, but there was no aura of that guy in it. It shouldn't be Haierbo."

While Wu was contemplating his guess, Maka stepped on the magic book and flew towards St. Mungo's at high speed.

…

"Bill, leave me alone."

Now on the street in front of the entrance of St. Mungo's, Charlie's mood calmed down after the initial violent changes.

Because when his eyes collided with the black "demon", he felt that he might not survive.

However, even if Charlie told Bill not to come to save him, how could the latter abandon his younger brother?

But obviously, compared to the terrifying speed of the "demon", the broom under Bill was much slower. Even if he always maintained the ultimate speed, it would be difficult to catch up.

"Bang!"

I heard the guy's foot stomp, and stepped directly on the dizzy Fire Dragon Norbert, and then burst out with terrifying speed.

Suddenly, Charlie felt his eyes blur, and then he saw a pair of thick black feet in front of him.

"Sin...death!"

"boom"

The opponent's fist was punched hard, and a cloud of gravel and dust was thrown up in an instant, making it unclear what kind of damage that heavy punch caused to Charlie.

No, if that fist comes down, Charlie will probably die if he touches it, or if he touches it, right?

But at that moment, Charlie only felt that he was being lifted up by the waist, and then he was lifted directly into the air.

"Maka?"

"Um."

That's right, Maka arrived just in time!

But for some of Charlie's questions, Maka didn't have any extra thoughts to answer him. Because all his attention now fell on the black "devil".

"Is this...the so-called 'demon'?"

The extremely eye-catching dress, coupled with the extremely powerful physical fitness, all revealed the unprecedented terrifying power. Thinking that she had noticed the magic power fluctuation that most likely represented the success of the demon summoning, Maka became confused.

I feel that I must have guessed correctly.

Yes, this is the so-called "demon"!

Just now, Maka, who had just arrived here, saw the demon attacking Charlie. After reacting very quickly, he just quickly activated his "swift" ability to save people.

But even with his speed, he could barely save Charlie just now. If he had been just a little slower, Charlie would probably have had his head exploded by the opponent's punch.

Strong! That's really strong! Even more amazing than Haierbo's own strength.

"Charlie, can you leave? If you can, leave here immediately."

Maka fell back to the ground slightly, and then put Charlie back on the ground. But until then, Bill on the broom had just flown nearby.

"Maka, what the hell is that guy?"

"I want to know too!"

Maka didn't look back. His gaze remained on the black figure in the smoke, with a solemn expression on his face.

"Bill, take Charlie to the outskirts and warn everyone who is coming here that no one can get close. Speed ​​up the evacuation and leave London as soon as possible."

After saying this, Maka didn't give any more instructions, but raised her legs and walked forward actively.

At this point, he could only be thankful that he had made the decisive decision to immediately notify everyone to carry out the evacuation operation, and Delphi had obviously left with everyone in St. Mungo's.

"Okay... Oh, Maka, Aberforth should still be here, I just don't know."
