harry potter book of crimes

"Because of the special nature of this test, I can't help you openly, so you mainly have to rely on yourself. At most, I can only give you some help without leaving a trace when you need it most... So,

Remember, no matter what happens, don’t stay too far away from me.”

When Harry felt his shoulders being clasped by Maka, he suddenly remembered some of what Maka had said to him beforehand.

At this moment, Harry suddenly realized that although Maka seemed to be frozen in place like the other friends around him, she was actually watching him from the beginning to the end.

"Maka, thank you!"

After thanking him gently, Harry put down the Sword of Gryffindor in his hand again.

But at this moment, he saw himself in front of him suddenly burst into laughter.

"Want to kill me? Why don't you come here? You know, I am the collection of weaknesses in your heart. If you kill me, you are equivalent to killing the weak self in your heart! And without the hindrance of weaknesses, you can't

Can I truly win the favor of the Sword of Gryffindor?"

Having said this, the other party immediately said loudly again:

"Why don't you come and cut off your flaws?"

If you want to ask "why", it is naturally because Maka took action to stop him. But in the final analysis, the reason why Harry was able to calm down so quickly after being pulled by Maka was thanks to Godric for the first time.

Tips for Gryffindor.

Obviously, if he had been so enraged and swung his sword just now, this second challenge would have been forced to end soon.

After all, even if you use anger and impulse to cover it up, its essence is still a kind of "escape". Real anger is used to face powerful enemies directly, not as an excuse to escape!

"Don't be fooled by appearances."

Looking at the faint sneer of the person opposite him, Harry suddenly remembered Maka's words.

Yes, although the other party had been calling him "himself" from the beginning, and even said that he was the embodiment of his inner weakness. But when facing the other party's sarcastic remarks, Harry gradually felt an inexplicable feeling of disobedience.

A sense of harmony.

Thinking of this, Harry suddenly trembled, and saw him suddenly staring at the other person, and asked loudly involuntarily:

"You're not my 'flaw' what are you?"

That's right, if that was really his weakness, then how could he be so strong and aggressive in every word he said?

Logically speaking, this should be something Harry noticed from the beginning, but his judgment was confused by the other person's appearance and words, so much so that he had to wait for Makamaya to pull him out before he could.

Get out of the vicious thinking circle created by the other party.

And when the other party discovered that Harry had finally gotten rid of his misguidance and started walking towards the essence of this test, he suddenly closed his mouth and stopped talking.

However, even though the truth was not far away, Harry still hadn't truly realized what the so-called "essence" was.

It wasn't until for no reason that a strong feeling of anger suddenly surged into his heart, causing Harry to tremble all over, that he suddenly understood.

It turns out that although what he wants to challenge is indeed "himself", it is not the illusion of himself opposite, but his own will.

Furious desire was ignited in Harry's heart.

…

"Is this...the second difficulty?"

Just when Harry closed his eyes tightly and his whole body suddenly became tense in reality, Maka, who had been holding his shoulders, suddenly took another look at him.

"Work harder! Although this place can help you survive, it is an excellent opportunity for you to improve your mental strength."

For Harry, who accepted the trial, this challenge was obviously not just a "test" to obtain recognition for the Sword of Gryffindor. In fact, it was more like a means of cultivating successors.

Only those who have been initially recognized by the sword can have the opportunity to gradually grow up through this series of tests, and finally gain the strength to properly exert the power of the sword.

Of course, these tests are obviously not left by Gryffindor, because if these tests cannot be completed, the consequences can be fatal. Just like the last time Harry challenged for the first time, if Dumbledore hadn't suddenly appeared

The Sorting Hat was placed on him, but he would never wake up again.

But this time, Harry finally entered the second trial. If he couldn't persist, he would at least end up having a mental breakdown and falling into madness.

You know, this sword has never been a good thing, otherwise Gryffindor wouldn't have said that he didn't actually suggest Harry challenge it last time.

And just as Harry was struggling with the sudden anger, Maka suddenly raised her head and looked at Neville not far ahead.

"That's it! Neville, put the stone down! Go sit down and rest for a while. Well done."

Before he finished speaking, everyone heard a "bang" sound, and Neville waved his wand violently to move the big stone he was holding in the air to one side. Then, he didn't even have the strength to say anything, and he just fell to the ground.

He sat down on the ground.

Maka looked at the big beads of sweat on his forehead and couldn't help but nodded secretly. To be honest, besides Harry, Neville should also be qualified to challenge the Sword of Gryffindor with his willpower.

.

However, there can only be one true successor to the Sword of Gryffindor. According to Maka's judgment, Harry, who is more adaptable, should be more suitable.

As for Neville...if I have to say it, the Patronus Charm theoretically has great potential. If Neville can understand it, his strength will definitely not be much worse than Harry's, and he will not even have any abilities at the same time.

Hidden danger.

It's a pity that although Maka has also studied the Patronus Charm, Neville's growth in this area is not much weaker than his. How to improve next, Maka can only teach him some application skills.

The rest is up to Neville's own efforts.

Thinking of this, Maka said to Neville who was sitting on the ground and gasping for air:

"After Harry is over, I will give you a theoretical lesson about the Patronus Charm. Make some preparations first. Think about any questions you have. Then you can ask me questions. Of course, I may not all

I can give you an answer, and we can have a good discussion then."

After saying that, he turned his head and gestured to Ron at the base of the wall:

"Come here quickly, it's your turn!"

When Ron heard this, he immediately looked at the big stone that Neville had just thrown on the ground with a subtle look on his face, and then said with a grimace:

"Maka, that... seems a bit too big, right?"
