"Mr. MacLean, give me little Delphi! Aren't you going to go out soon? Eat something quickly, don't just feed her..."

As Helen spoke, she walked over and reached out to the small bowl of fish paste in the hands of little Delphi and Maka. Although Maka said it was nothing, she still let her take it.

Seeing Helen taking little Delphi back to her seat, hugging and feeding each other in a tacit understanding with Cathy, Maka couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.

"Oh, today's stewed potatoes tasted good!"

After all, French food is famous all over the world. Even if everyone is not in high spirits at the moment, after tasting so many delicious and delicious dishes, their mood can't help but become much better.

Therefore, even if it is only at the dinner table that everyone can relax their depressed hearts, Mr. Blois specially reminded that the meals in recent days need to be prepared more carefully.

Just like at lunch, neither Maka nor Mr. Blois mentioned any disappointing topics during the meal. While everyone was eating, they chatted about innocuous things, and Maka even casually revealed something about Dumbledore.

Lido's strange habits during his lifetime made Mr. Blois smile.

It's a pity that no matter how much everyone cherishes this rare warmth and harmony, dinner will eventually come to an end.

When Maka saw that the sunset outside the window had completely faded and night fell again, he put down the dessert spoon in his hand for the last time, picked up a wet towel and wiped his mouth stained with some chocolate syrup.

"Maka, are you leaving now?"

Seeing Hermione asking subconsciously, Maka nodded immediately.

"Yes! The sooner I finish my work, the sooner I can come back. I'm hoping to have a good night's sleep tonight!"

After saying this, he nodded slightly to Mr. Blois and everyone, and then asked Kingsley and Delphi to leave the table first, and went straight to the door.

The servant guarding the door saw this and quickly opened the door for them.

Not long after, the three silhouettes disappeared at the door one after another under the gaze of everyone.

"I heard... Maka is going to meet the Muggle Queen this time?"

After a moment, Ginny asked softly.

"Well," Hermione said after hearing this, "The Queen seems to want to seek some assistance from Maka... Oh no, I think that should be called...'cooperation'?"

As she said this, she couldn't help but glance at Mr. Blois who was sitting in the main seat, and then saw him slightly nodding towards her.

Most of the people sitting at this long table are obviously not stupid. Although everyone is still unable to figure out the deep truth from Hermione's words, at least they can understand the current attitude of the Queen of England.

And then, Ron was heard saying:

"What kind of cooperation will it be?"

To be honest, it is not difficult to answer Ron's question, because as long as Maka is willing, there are still many forms of help he can give him.

However, it is precisely for this reason that it is quite difficult to guess the correct answer.

Including Hermione, everyone thought about it for a long time in their seats, and finally turned their attention to Mr. Blois in the deepest place.

"Don't look at me like that." Seeing this, Willy's father couldn't help but shake his head slightly. "If you can deduce McClain's idea just by thinking about it, then with Haierbo's wisdom, wouldn't he be able to make it easily?

Are you on guard?"

Obviously, he lied, because he already knew the general direction of Maka's plan when he had a previous conversation with the other party.

"Okay, let's disperse...According to what MacLean said, there shouldn't be any danger here in Paris at the moment. It's still early. If I'm not sleepy, I plan to go to the Opera House to sit there. Anyone want to go with me?"

Of?"

…

There is Willy's father at Blois Castle, so as long as Herbo has not returned to his peak condition, Maka is actually relatively relieved.

After all, there is still the mysterious sealing magic in the inheritance of the Blois family. If he is allowed to go all out to deal with Haierbo, he might be able to delay it longer than Maka!

"Let's go! Go back quickly, today... I'm afraid it won't take long."

After leaving the inside of Blois Castle, Maca nodded towards Kingsley, then raised her left hand and spread it in front of Delphi beside her.

When the latter saw this, he immediately put his hand up knowingly, and the next moment the three of them disappeared together from the stairs of Blois Castle.

After Delphi, who was slightly uncomfortable with moving in space because she became a Muggle, calmed down, she suddenly looked up and saw a manor located in the night.

And the three of them happened to appear on the stone road leading to the entrance of the manor.

"Do you feel a little cold?"

With a wave of her hand, Maka conjured up a velvet cloak for Delphi and put it on her shoulders, and then led her and Kingsley forward along the road.

"This is located in the north, and the manor is located a bit high, so it will be somewhat colder than in the south." Maka explained to her as she walked, "However, this is probably the farthest manor from London among all the royal family's estates.

It’s located here, plus there’s Hogwarts further north... this is indeed a relatively safe location in the UK.”

Of course, now Hogwarts Castle has become a ruin. When he mentioned it, Maka's face clearly flashed a hint of gloom, but he walked two steps ahead and did not let Delphi and Kingsley see it.

arrive.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the gate of the manor.

"Well... Since Her Majesty the Queen needs to be reserved, she should follow the rules first!" Maca paused, then gestured to Kingsley.

After hearing this, the latter immediately understood what he meant and knocked on the door.

"The wizard, Mr. Macca McLean, has come to meet with the Muggle Queen."

This was naturally said to the guards guarding behind the door. If you look closely, you can actually find that there are even some wizards among the guards of the closer manor. It is the old bishop Davidson who specializes in secretly serving the royal family.

Part of the trained wizard guard.

However, to be honest, the old man's own magic level may be okay, but he is obviously not a very good magic teacher.

Putting aside these things, the two guards standing closest to the door obviously recognized Kingsley, and it seemed that the Queen had already given orders.

After hearing Kingsley's words, they immediately opened the door gently.

"Her Majesty the Queen has already had dinner and has been waiting in the main hall for a long time. Please come in..."
