harry potter book of crimes

Because Enns was saved by someone first, Harry, who might have had to fight the phantom demon in the sea, did save a lot of time.

However, after all, it is at least more than twenty miles from the battle site with "Wrath" to the seaside, and the journey back and forth is nearly fifty miles. Even if Harry and Alexander did not stop at the seaside, it would not be a blink of an eye after all.

You can cover the distance in one trip.

With Hermione's carefulness and thoughtfulness, she would not fail to take this into consideration - she must have estimated the time required for Harry's trip before she still resolutely put Enns' life first.

To take action.

But obviously, this is ultimately a decision that is far from correct from a rational perspective. Let Harry take Alexander alone, who is not very capable of fighting, to save people from a demon, while he himself

Then lead the remaining people to try to extend the planned time of the battle against "Wrath" by at least double. No matter which side is on it, it is very likely that they will encounter varying degrees of danger.

"...So, we may actually suffer some unnecessary harm, or even fatal threats. If one of us dies because of my decision...then even if Harry succeeds in bringing him...

Now that Enns and Alexander are back, I will probably regret it."

While Hermione continued to exert the influence of gravity rules on "Wrath", she said frankly to Delphi beside her.

"I can understand how you feel."

Delphi was also casting a spell on the huge demon. Hearing Hermione's words, he nodded casually.

"I've 'seemed' to have made some decisions that may have required the sacrifice of others - although even if I didn't make any decisions, someone would still die, but after all, it became 'dying because of me'."

Nowadays, it’s actually hard for me to say that I don’t regret it in the end, but it’s really uncomfortable.”

"Don't you regret it?"

Although Hermione didn't know what decision Delphi was talking about, the meaning the other party wanted to express was still conveyed to her relatively clearly. After hearing Delphi's self-report, she couldn't help but ask a question.

"Yes, I don't regret it." Delphi nodded with certainty, "Because not only do I know what I am doing, but I also know the thoughts of those who may be sacrificed - in certain circumstances, when

When everyone understands that they may actually embrace death at any time, "being sacrificed" may not be so difficult to accept. On the contrary, the person who finally decides to sacrifice someone may be the one who suffers the most.

one."

Delphi's words were indeed a bit convoluted, but Hermione did have personal experience of this now, so she quickly understood what she meant.

It's just that Hermione didn't quite agree with some of Delphi's views. After all, their personalities were completely different.

"Maybe!" Hermione suddenly waved her wand and once again increased the output of magic power. At the same time, she said with some difficulty, "I don't know your past experience, but it sounds like it is somewhat similar to our current situation.

Yes, including me, almost everyone here is fighting with the determination to die, but... even if everyone has been prepared to sacrifice long ago, I will never decide life or death for everyone.

Right. Even sometimes, I seem to really...have to do that."

"This is the responsibility that comes with ability," Delphi said calmly, spreading his left hand that was not holding the wand, "Of course, many times, I always prefer to call it 'burden'."

"I know that."

Hermione answered, then pursed her lips, as if she thought of something from this topic, but she didn't say it out loud after all.

She has actually said some things many times before, so there is no need to repeat them endlessly.

But Delphi immediately guessed what she wanted to say.

"Mr. MacLean is different from us after all," Delphi said. "The responsibilities he bears are probably beyond our imagination... and at his level, I think... it may no longer be possible to simply use it."

The word "burden" is used to describe it. Perhaps because of this, we can never guess what he wants to do."

"Um."

After a moment of silence, Hermione only responded softly. This was not because she had no words to answer for a while, but because the battle in front of her finally entered the most tense stage - the demon "Wrath" struggled repeatedly after being trapped, and then

As if it had infinite power and energy, until this moment, it finally escaped from the multiple magic traps.

After an explosive suppression led by Hermione, she finally found a moment to breathe and said loudly:

"Everyone, please hold on, Luna and the others haven't finished setting up yet... Sarah, can I ask you a favor again?"

"I'll give it a try," Sarah, who was further back, immediately replied, "but it's best not to have too high expectations."

Sarah's alchemy is becoming stronger and stronger as the integrity of her soul continues to improve. Even actual combat, which she was originally least good at, now has a very important position in the team.

In terms of control ability alone, her alchemy formation is no worse than the gravity rules Hermione currently masters.

It's a pity that the enemy they need to face now is not an ordinary living corpse or anything, but an extremely powerful demon! Hermione will definitely not be able to trap "Wrath" based on the rules of gravity alone, and Sarah's

Alchemy is naturally not much different.

"retreat!"

Seeing that the situation was indeed not good, Hermione had no choice but to call on the people around her to move back south, and at the same time looked at Delphi beside her.

"Delphi, can you think of a way to delay it a little longer? Luna and Ginny need more time."

She still remembered that when she encountered the "Wrath" attack at the Burrow stronghold, Delphi single-handedly held back this behemoth for a long time in order to hinder the opponent's progress.

But at this moment, Delphi was a little hesitant after hearing this.

"It's okay," she said, "but... if I use my method, the guy will most likely go berserk in advance when he escapes from trouble... You have to think about it!"

As soon as Delphi's words came out, Hermione immediately fell into a deeper hesitation. And while she was helping Sarah to barely block the "anger" while hesitating, three figures finally appeared, accompanied by the howling wind.

Swooping down in mid-air.

Harry and the others are here!
