harry potter book of crimes

Quiet, absolutely quiet, so quiet that even the waves crashing on the reef not far away dared not make a sound.

This tranquility was due to nothing else but the sudden appearance of that figure.

"Is it going to rain again?"

Under everyone's hidden astonishment, the black figure seemed somewhat relaxed and casual, even lazy. He raised his head slightly, looked at the gray and hazy sky wall above, and said to himself:

"There is no sunshine or rain for a whole month now in the UK. The grass and trees are withered and decayed. It is ugly and boring at first glance. Last time I managed to get some rain in my city, but in the end it was frozen to death by myself.

A big icicle was broken...it was all caused by those demons! But, oh...in the final analysis, it was still the guy named Haierbo who caused it!"

He was talking to himself like this, as if he was bored when no one was talking to him, so he lowered his head again and looked around, and finally set his sights on Luna across the table.

"...Do you think so?" he asked casually.

Luna didn't answer, but facing such a tall and muscular "humanoid monster" with a dark body and a pair of black eyes as deep as a bottomless abyss, she didn't panic at all.

She just stared at the other person, her expression dazed but unwavering.

Fortunately, the black figure didn't seem to have any intention of asking her to respond. After waiting for a few seconds before Luna spoke, she turned and looked outside the tower again.

From a distance, you can see a fire dragon spreading its wings and flying freely. Sometimes it is close to the water, bringing up white waves, and sometimes it suddenly flies high into the sky. People with better eyesight may be able to spot the back of the fire dragon close to the base of its neck.

At the position, there are two figures straddling it.

"Although it's cloudy here, at least it's much better than that land... If I have the chance in the future, I'd like to visit more more beautiful places. I think it will be very enjoyable."

I kept talking until this point, but no one answered me, but this guy who looked very vicious on the surface was not annoyed at all.

However, after he paused for a moment and sat there leisurely admiring the sea view, some people finally couldn't bear it any longer.

"Do living corpses...or demons also have the emotion of 'happiness'?"

But what many people present did not expect was that Hermione was the first to lose her composure. In fact, after asking this question, even she herself found it a bit incredible, because it was not consistent with the situation.

She had just re-decided the gist of the plan.

However, I have said everything, can I still take it back?

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't care, as if he didn't feel the deep meaning at all. He just nodded simply and directly:

"Of course, in fact, living zombies and demons also have emotions, but they are not complete enough... In other words, some may be able to feel happiness, while others can only feel sadness. Take that silly big man for example.

'Angry', do you think losing your temper is an emotion? But it doesn't know fear or boredom. Even demons are like this. They are living corpses transformed from the reconstruction of human souls, so naturally they are more

That’s it.”

"how about you?"

Hermione felt that since she had asked the first sentence, the second sentence would of course not matter. Even if the question was too direct and explicit, she had to continue.

"Me?" The other party still looked at the sparkling deep sea calmly and said without looking back, "My situation is quite special, so my emotions are more complete than many people's living corpses."

After finishing her words, Hermione was about to say something else, but at this moment, Delphi on the side suddenly interrupted:

"Are you 'lazy'?"

"Um?"

The tall figure sitting on the chair paused after hearing this, and then finally slowly turned his head and looked at Delphi, who was standing not far away. Everyone seemed to think that he was going to do something bad to the latter, and subconsciously

He raised the wand in his hand, and Harry even raised the Sword of Gryffindor.

But the figure just glanced at Delphi, then looked away and shook his head.

"You seem to know us demons very well, don't you?" His tone became a little brisk, although his voice was still hoarse and dark, "But... no, I'm not 'lazy' - don't look at my laziness and you will immediately take my seat.

, The seven deadly sins are indeed the seven deadly sins, but they cannot be explained clearly just by looking at the words."

"But at least... you admit that you are indeed a devil?" Hermione frowned and stared at him.

But the other party still nodded calmly.

"I have never denied this," he said, "and...it actually doesn't matter if I tell you, because my honesty may be more helpful to our cooperation negotiations for a while. So...that's right, I'm not

'Laziness', I am 'greedy'."

Not to mention the faint commotion among the others present when they heard him admit that he was also a demon. As soon as he finished speaking these so-called "candid" words, Hermione and Delphi frowned even more.

He frowned, but did not feel any relief because of this sincerity.

"'Greed'?" Delphi pursed his lips, then continued to look at him and said, "'Greed is excessive appropriation, taking more things than needed, and abandoning eternity for the sake of corruption'...

If you are indeed 'greedy', how can you still discuss cooperation with us?"

When she said this, Delphi's mood was complicated. After all, she speculated that the person in front of her was Maka. However, when she was not sure, her reason kept suppressing it.

Her inner impulse.

But no matter what she thinks in her heart, what she said at this moment is absolutely objective and not mixed with any personal emotions. Because she also wants to get the answer she needs step by step through rational questioning.

Come.

After hearing her questions, the other party raised his hand slightly and pointed at her - this action shocked the other partners around Delphi, and the tip of someone's staff even glowed with magic.

It came, but in the end I held it back again.

Because the other party did not make any other actions except reaching out and tapping lightly.

"Didn't I just say it? Don't interpret and understand the literal content easily... In the final analysis, the names of the Seven Deadly Sins are just a rough proxy. Just like your parents, or...

You gave yourself a name, so does your name represent everything you have?"
