Maka's patron saint is undoubtedly unique compared to other wizards, and no one has been found to be able to imitate it so far.

Even Neville, who has been highly praised by Maka himself for his mastery of the Patronus Charm, although his combat ability of the Patronus seems to be no weaker than the former, he still cannot "turn his Patronus into a "Humanoid posture" is such an unconventional thing.

So when the silver eagle landed from the sky and transformed into the outline of Maka in front of his eyes, it was difficult to admit his mistake.

What's more, at that time, Luna quickly "smelled" the "taste" of Maka in that silver mist-shrouded figure. With her perception ability based on the rules of empathy, I believe it was not possible. It will be wrong.

"Luna, the time has come, let's set off with Hermione!" The figure with the silvery white light was standing outside the temporary command post, looking straight at her and said, "This operation was doomed from the beginning. It will be full of dangers, but don't be afraid, victory will belong to us in the end - just remember! Luna, no matter what situation we encounter, the safety of each of us is always the highest priority. Protect yourself first , to complete the mission, don’t be too reckless, and ask Hermione not to be impulsive... After this trip is over, let us rejoin here!"

Far away from the patron saint of the spell caster, even Maka was unable to maintain direct contact with it at the conscious level. So at that time, Luna could only listen honestly, unable to interrupt and ask any questions—— Even if it looks like Maka herself, it is just a one-way message.

"...That's what Maka's patron saint said at the time. I should...haven't missed anything." Luna continued to walk forward in small steps and said in retrospect, "Anyway, I don't remember him. Talked about some 'important items'."

"Yeah?"

In the darkness, Hermione's tone seemed a little disappointed, but she also seemed to feel "relieved".

Luna, who was keenly aware of this, subconsciously turned her head and glanced aside when she heard the sound, but also because of the darkness, her movement was not seen by Hermione.

After about a few minutes, the two of them discovered that the ground beneath their feet began to become somewhat sloped.

"Aberforth said that once we reach the uphill slope, it means that we are not far from the exit at the other end, and the Room of Requirement will begin to appear at this time."

"Well," Hermione nodded and said in a low voice, "be careful."

From now on, no matter how restless they feel inside, the two of them can no longer chat casually like they did just now, and their psychological alertness will be raised to the highest point.

The rest of the journey became extremely dull, and even the sound of footsteps was quietly eliminated by Hermione silently waving her wand.

It's just that they must be thinking about something in their hearts, and even Luna is no exception.

Hermione touched her beaded bag again. It seemed that at this moment, it was the only thing that could keep her thoughts from wandering away.

Even if you are uneasy, you are still uneasy, and uneasiness is still uneasiness.

Suddenly, her hand was pulled by Luna beside her, and she turned a corner under the guidance of the other party. Then the two of them touched the darkness and stopped.

The secret passage had reached the end, and ahead was the entrance to Hogwarts Castle. Hermione couldn't help but secretly take a deep breath.

Then she gently patted Luna's arm beside her, and at the same time took the lead to step forward again, groping and slowly pushing open a slightly cold door.

A faint, warm light shines through from outside the door, and with just one glance, one can tell that the space on the other side of the door seems to be immersed in darkness.

But darkness is obviously better than seeing nothing at all - the Room of Requirement will always be generated according to the inner needs of the people who need it, so even Hermione and Luna didn't deliberately think about the room itself when they came here.

They have also made corresponding changes according to their subconscious will.

"Ah!" Hermione, who stepped here first, whispered in her heart, and said to herself with a sudden realization, "Did I come here with such a state of mind? This is not good... I have to reorganize myself.

emotions."

She never seemed to think that this might actually be caused by Luna's subconscious, because she believed that Luna must be mentally stronger than her most of the time, and this was something that had to be admitted.

"Oh, we are here again, everything seems like just yesterday." Although Luna lowered her voice very low, she still couldn't help but said it, "Hermione, we are finally back!"

Although the light here was still very insufficient, this time, Hermione was finally able to see clearly the face of Luna who was close to Chi Chi - the blond girl who usually seemed very calm and calm could not help but show some signs of it at this moment.

Excited look.

Yes! After so long, they are finally back on this campus that they have been so nostalgic for. How can they not be excited?

But there is no other way. You have to be patient. This is far from the time to get excited!

"Luna," Hermione, who was also a little agitated, grimaced. While suppressing the fluctuations in her chest, she looked at her good friends who were looking around, "Let's work! We have to hurry up."

"oh!"

Luna turned her head and waved vigorously towards the dark door behind her, making a "wait with peace of mind" gesture.

In fact, it wasn't just the zombie Silly Bo who stayed inside. During this operation, Sarah's pair of alchemy dolls also followed quietly in the darkness. However, Hermione didn't intend to let them come with her.

Accompany them in their actions.

Although the two dolls made by Sarah have good fighting ability and autonomous action ability, they do not have real intelligence after all. Without Sarah taking the initiative to control them, others want to command them very finely.

, it is undoubtedly difficult to do.

Such uncertain factors, even if the combat power is considerable, can be used as bait to attract the enemy's attention at critical moments, but if the operation is a sneak operation, it will inevitably get in the way.

As mentioned earlier, this trip depends on their own methods.

"Luna, remember to leave the key magic node blank. Before we manually activate it, there must be no magic reaction at all!"

"good."

While Luna was responding to the words, she, like Hermione across from her, was holding a pen in one hand and an ink bottle in the other, lying on the ground and carefully sketching strokes on the floor.

This is their first move after arriving here, and there is a high probability that it will be their only available escape route in the near future, so they cannot be careless at all.
