harry potter book of crimes

"Eternal time has formed a circle, the sin of nothingness has turned into reality, and 'chaos' has returned to the world."

In Trelawney's prediction this time, the previous sentence can actually be said to be a foreshadowing, but it may also be said to be a warning.

Regardless of how much Lupine could understand from this sentence, at least Maka had a general understanding.

First of all, the first sentence is about Maka using the time turner to repeatedly enter the long river of time and wade against the current.

In order to allow Delphi, who was destined to disappear in this timeline, to exist without incident, Maka worked hard to interpret the rules of time and forcibly set a well-intentioned trap for her.

From the moment he handed the engraved time turner into the hands of the young Delphi, Delphi's time, which should have been disconnected, finally formed a closed circle...

As for the second and third sentences in the prophecy, it is easier to understand.

Maka knows that the so-called "evil of nothingness" naturally refers to the black demon summoned by Haierbo's summoning technique; and the "chaos" in the third paragraph, if it is not Haierbo himself,

Who else could it be?

But for Lupine, who has also read this prophecy, it is impossible to know about the circle of time in the first place. And in the following two paragraphs, he is probably likely to regard "sin" and "chaos" as "crime" and "chaos".

Let’s talk about that guy Haierbo.

In this regard, since it will inevitably become very difficult to explain, and a lackluster explanation will more easily cause Lupine to misunderstand, so based on this first sentence alone, Maka actually has no intention of explaining it to him.

"The key point of this prophecy is the second sentence," Maka pointed to the second half of the secret text on the note and said with a slight frown, "'When chaos opens the door to disaster, matter will be eroded, and the rules will be re-established.

Order, destiny falls apart'... Well, I think there probably will be no clearer prophecy than this in history!"

"Yes!" Lu Ping said with a wry smile, "Isn't this basically saying...'We will be finished soon'?"

When Maka heard this, she couldn't help but shrugged.

After waiting for a while, he pointed to the "Opening the Door to Disaster" on the note again, his brows obviously frowning more and more.

"Although I'm a little sorry for Professor Trelawney, I still want to say that that's why Hermione has always disliked things like divination and prophecy. Because even with such a clear prophecy, the most critical part must be ambiguity.

Clear..."

At the end of the day, maybe even Maka was in an extremely bad mood due to the bad news one after another today. She couldn't help but shake her head and said:

"You said... do prophets like to use metaphors in their prophecies?"

…

When Luna went somewhere to fill her stomach with water and then ran back to the main hall of the new Ministry of Magic, Maka and Lupin's conversation had already come to an end.

Although the most important part is still confusing, what may happen next has already revealed an unpleasant outline.

Of course, this kind of thing must not be easily known to Luna.

"Lu Ping, just continue to do things according to the previous rhythm. Don't be disturbed by a few words."

After saying this, Maka immediately stood up and walked towards Luna who had just stepped into the hall. Passing by the chair with the dining basket on the way, he easily picked it up in his hand.

"Luna, let's go! Although these desserts of yours are a bit weird, it's rare that you took the trouble to make them, so let's share them with everyone! If others don't tell me, I guess Fred and George are sure

I'll be happy..."

Before he finished speaking, and he had just greeted Luna back to the door, he suddenly sensed a familiar magic wave appearing on the street outside.

"Huh? Is it Ron?"

Ron, who was supposed to be punished in the observation room, would come here. This is obviously not normal.

"Maka! Oh, you are indeed here... The Muggle lady didn't respond no matter how she shouted. Hermione asked me to ask you to come over and take a look."

Because that lady is indeed a person with a good personality and good temper, and she often feels like a sister. Therefore, when problems arise with her, Ron seems to become worried.

"Well, take a breath first... Didn't I say that? Although this can't be said to be a normal situation, it is bound to happen. Don't worry, just come here slowly with Luna. I'll take the first step...

By the way, you can try some of the snacks baked by Luna on the way."

Having said that, in fact, Maka may not feel much more relaxed than Ron. Since those two people are both carriers of the possibility of "living corpse transformation" that he has confirmed, their situation will affect Maka's next plan.

Speaking of which, it can be said to be quite critical.

Not long after, Maka flashed and quickly reached the new St. Mungo's Building, which was not far away.

When Harry, who was guarding the door of the observation room, saw Maka appearing at the end of the underground corridor, he immediately waved to him, then pointed to the closed door and said:

"So fast? Oh, Hermione was watching inside...it took less than ten minutes to realize that the other party couldn't move!"

He was a little surprised at Ron's efficiency in finding people, and then told him about his current situation.

"I understand," Macca nodded briefly, "What about the other side? Who is taking care of it right now? There is no similar situation over there?"

"Ginny is guarding over there! I just asked her to confirm that her consciousness is still very clear, no problem!"

"Okay, then you can continue to guard here! Ron and Luna will be here soon... By the way, don't let anyone in while I'm in there."

After that, with Harry's affirmative response, Maka opened the door and walked into the observation room.

"Maca"

"Hermione, please go out for a while! It's okay, she won't have any problems, and she will wake up again after a while."

Hermione, who was sitting beside the hospital bed, turned around after hearing the sound, and then glanced at the bed again, then nodded to Maka and left without saying a word.

After a cautious "click" of the door closing, Maka turned her back to the door and stood on the hospital bed where the Muggle lady couldn't see her, showing a trace of worry.

However, what he seemed to be worried about was not the lady on the bed, but... the few friends he had arranged to stay here.

But soon, he put away the slight worry on his face, walked forward, lowered his head, smiled and said:

"Madam, do you still remember what I said before? Don't worry, I'm here, it'll be fine. Relax, you will be liberated from this state in a while..."

No matter what you are thinking in your heart, when facing the patient, you must try your best to maintain a smile that can reassure the other person.

To a certain extent, it would be good for Maka to simply become a therapist in the future. This profession seems to be quite suitable for him.
