Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1239: For my father
The girl in the room seemed to be silent again.
When Maca saw this, he could only temporarily suppress the thought of continuing to urge, and turned around to go back to the stairs. Since Delphi needs a little space, it's better to give her some more space, anyway Maca has to go and ha Let them say a few words.
But before he could take a few more steps, he heard the creak of the door being opened suddenly behind him, and Delphi came out after all.
Sure enough, when Maca turned her head, she immediately saw that she had come to the corridor, and there was a certain complex emotion in her eyes looking here.
"Dad...please come in!"
After that, Delphi went back to the room immediately, and Maca could only follow it after seeing it.
"Delphine."
Looking at the girl who picked up the silver cup and sat back on the edge of the bed, Maca didn't know what to say at this time. So after thinking about it, he said slowly:
"What difficulties are you encountering? If you feel uncomfortable in your heart, let me know! You see, I am...well, am I not "dad"? Are there any troubles that I can't tell my father?"
However, Delphi just shook his head, holding the cup and lowering his head.
After waiting patiently for a while, giving her a little more time, Maca walked to her and knelt down, looking at her face and calling her softly.
"Delphine?"
"No," the girl was still shaking her head, "I can't tell my father about this... and don't be so gentle with me anymore, because if you know the truth, you definitely won't... "
It can be seen that Delphi is very embarrassed at the moment, as if something is constantly bothering her.
At the end, I saw her biting her lower lip, whispering:
"Anyway... I'm sorry, Dad, I can't return the time converter to you."
Maca was stunned when he heard the words, and immediately said:
"Why?"
Seeing him asking, Delphi looked at him seriously, and said after a few seconds:
"You should know the reason, don't you? You even know better than me... You just keep hiding from others and never talk to anyone."
"Huh?"
After hearing this, Maca couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and then said dumbly:
"Are you trying to say... the sequelae of forcibly breaking the rules and exceeding the backtracking time?"
Due to the dual limitations of the time rules and the time converter itself, the maximum span of time travel is approximately five hours. If this time is exceeded, there will be unforeseen serious harm to the traveler and the time itself.
When using the time converter last time, Maca did not violate the five-hour rule at the beginning. After all, this is the result of many wizards experimenting with their lives.
However, in just five hours, coupled with many restrictions on time travel, the possibility of changing certain decisions is extremely slim. So later, Maca had to repeatedly use the time converter to conduct research and calculations, and finally reluctantly found a way to break the five-hour limit to change the facts.
In the end, he lied to himself, lied to others, and even lied to the whole world, and seized the first opportunity that belonged to all members of Hogwarts.
But obviously, he still hasn't been able to fool the nearly strict time rules.
Excessive time travel caused some damage to his body. His coughing at the time and the sudden fall into a coma after returning are the best proof.
However, he didn't tell anyone that it was actually a permanent injury. If there are no accidents, even if he never uses the time converter since then, that kind of damage will follow him throughout his life.
Fortunately, a certain degree of organ damage is not too much trouble for a good potionist. As long as he takes the potion uninterruptedly for a long time, at least the damage will not continue to worsen, and it will not have an excessive impact on his health.
Not long after he developed a targeted potion and started taking it regularly, his cough disappeared. Everyone, even himself, didn't care about this innocuous little thing anymore.
However, to prevent the injury from getting worse, this is naturally based on the premise that he will never use the time converter. If he dares to time travel again, even if it does not exceed the limit of five hours, it may continue to cause damage to his body.
And in case the limit is to be exceeded again, deepening the damage is almost an inevitable result.
These thoughts flashed through Maca's mind, but immediately, he slowly shook his head and showed a relaxed smile at Delphi.
"Yes, I know very well that you still have to do what you need to do, right?" He said, "Like you, Delphi...you span more than ten years at a time, just Just to prevent the start of this disaster, I believe that if it were you, I would be able to understand my feelings."
"Understand?"
Delph pursed her lips, still lowered her head, and whispered as if talking to herself:
"Yes, I can understand Dad's feelings... and I also know that it is very, very difficult to stop you. Because you have always been so firm, tenacious... and stubborn!"
"Yes! If you can understand, then"
"No!" Delphi immediately interrupted, "Perhaps Dad doesn't know me very well, but in fact, I am also very stubborn like you. What's more..."
Just as she had stopped talking before, she didn't finish her words. When Maca saw her talking, she stopped again. She couldn't help but was a little confused, but she still changed her words:
"Delph, I know, you must stop me for my own good. Yes, I can feel your care for me, and I am also very happy to see you who have grown up now... …"
"But, no matter how dangerous it is, there are some things I have to do. Not to mention, don’t you still have you? Come and tell me what will happen after I do that, and What specific consequences will be caused, and then we will work together to study how to overcome that problem"
"No way!"
Delph listened, suddenly put aside the silver cup in his hand, and then tightly grasped Maca's arm.
"Dad, there is no way... the rules of time cannot be deceived." She looked at Maca, frowned and emphasized hard, "Dad, do you know? Actually, even if I don’t tell you What happened, can you figure it out for yourself tonight? My plan can be said to be a complete failure. The moment I was discovered by Helbo, it was a complete failure!"
"After that, in fact, you can predict all the developments by yourself, including the time you may need to travel beyond the limit, including what Helbo will do with the demon summoning... even if I don’t tell you, You will also rely on your own wisdom to guess all of this one by one."
"Yes, Dad... I really think you are very powerful. I have always regarded me as your child as the most proud thing in my life. Even after I know that my real father is Tom After Riddle, I have always felt so in my heart."
"But... no matter how smart you are, even if you know that you will be severely harmed, you end up using the time converter."
Speaking of this, Delphi let go of Maca's arms, plopped and sat back at the end of the bed.
"You are really amazing... Originally, you had already calculated clearly and understood that you might never go back, but you finally came back. I heard what Miss Granger said... she said , Just a few minutes after you used the time converter, you showed up in front of everyone again with an injury, and smiled and said that you temporarily found an opportunity, and "luckily" saved your life... …"
After hearing this, Maca just frowned slightly, but hurriedly asked:
"Then... where is Luna?"
This time, Delphi did not answer.
Maca's face changed again when she saw her fall silent, and then she couldn't help but close her mouth slowly.
Almost a minute of silence, Delphi continued:
"After that, you and Mr. Snape spent a long time on treatment. In the end, although the injury was barely suppressed, it also left a very serious sequelae... But even then, After you were able to move, you immediately stood in front of everyone and organized the remaining resistance to establish a resistance base."
"As for the things after that, I have already said it last time, so I won't repeat it..." She paused, "All in all, I just want to tell you what you should try and what you should study. In fact, I have done it myself~IndoMTL.com~ but it just proves that all efforts are useless!"
"Not only did you fail to save Miss Lovegood, you almost...no, not almost...I think you killed yourself!"
I remember Delphi said before that in the end Maca should have gone to a decisive battle with Helbo, but no miracle happened in the end.
Well, maybe if he hadn't been hurt so badly because of time travel, he would be more likely to defeat Helbo? Who knows?
The question is, could Maca give up the chance to save Luna?
No, it's impossible.
Maca shook his head, and couldn't help sighing for a long time. These words from Delphi really made him feel the ultimate concern. Delphi is really concerned about his safety, and even his failure to defeat Haierbo seems to have become a very secondary matter.
It can be seen that Delphi said at the time that she came to this era for "for the sake of father", and that was serious.
