Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 408: Talk to the 1st generation of Dark Lord

() "...you want to...take them away?"

When Joshua saw Maca walking out of the dungeon with a group of ragged children, his face showed a clear panic.

Maca just glanced at him and continued on. Behind him, the wounded children supported each other and silently followed his pace.

Different from Joshua, who has long been tortured and distorted his character, these children are still shallow in receiving the poison, and a certain part of their hearts has not been invaded by obedience.

Even if they still dare not speak, they are surprisingly consistent in their actions.

"No, no...you can't take them away...the master will..."

"Do you want to go together too?"

Maca stood still and interrupted him.

"...Me? No, no...I..."

"Your master has abandoned you, hasn't he?" Maca still stood there, without looking back.

"...I...but...mark..."

Hearing the word "mark", Maca couldn't help thinking. He suddenly turned around and looked at Joshua calmly, but his eyes were unusually sharp.

"So..." Maca looked at him and said, "If I help you remove the Mark of Death, would you want to leave with me?"

"Go, remove? Impossible...I..." Joshua said incoherently, and put both hands tremblingly on his chest, where the brand mark was.

"Will you want to leave with me?"

No matter how shaken his heart is, Maca's voice is still as flat as ever.

Maybe only to a certain extent, the "master" will give these children a mark. According to Maca's previous observation, the brand mark should have been done by some kind of dark magic.

"I... leave?" Joshua looked at Maca blankly, and after a while, he said in a dull way, "Where can I go..."

"Think about it myself."

Maca dropped this sentence, then turned around again, and walked in the same direction as when he came back and forth.

Joshua stood by the entrance of the dungeon, watching Maca’s back get further and further away from him, watching the children who were not even interested in looking at himself, his hands gradually became tighter and tighter. .

After living here for so many years, he never thought about what it would be like if he were free, but now, this reality is clearly before his eyes.

The wizard who is younger than himself...can remove the mark that the master has given him? That brand of tormenting oneself day after day, year after year... can it really be removed?

Maybe it can? That wizard is terribly strong... Maybe it can?

"...I want to go with you!" Joshua suddenly yelled, "I don't want to be beaten anymore! I want...to live the same life as when my mother was still there!"

The page of memory that has been in the dust for a long time, quietly opened in his heart, and the faded picture seemed to reappear before his eyes.

"...Really?" Maca finally turned around again, looking at him in the distance, "It's a pity, I can't give you something like that... If you want, you have to work hard. . All I can give you is just an opportunity."

After all, Maca led the children to the direction of the restaurant, and Joshua, who was stunned, hurried to catch up.

……

"Take off your shirt and sit on a chair."

In the dining room of the monastery, Maca lightly lit the firewood in the fireplace, and then urged Joshua.

Some complex emotions entangled in Joshua's heart. He removed his clothes in silence, revealing a thin and similarly wounded upper body.

On his chest, the Death Sacred Mark looming with black and purple aura is actually inconspicuous, because around that mark, the strange veins spreading out are much more eye-catching than it.

After he sat down in the back chair, Maca came to him with the staff and carefully probed the mystery.

"...There is no doubt that there is a curse on the imprint. But..." Maca frowned slightly, sensing the magic fluctuations in it, "Huh? What is this extra magic point?"

Unlike ordinary wizards, he can clearly sense the magic power at close range, and it will be easier to analyze the spell. Soon he discovered something suspicious from the vague and complicated magical fluctuations.

He immediately took out a stack of manuscript paper and placed it on the dining table next to him. Sometimes he touched the brand mark with his magic power, and sometimes he wrote and painted, as if he was trying to figure out something.

However, when he observed the magic feedback in it again, and leaned over to perform the exercise again, his hand holding the quill suddenly stopped.

Although he is particularly good at analyzing magic spells, it takes time, and it is far from complete at the moment.

What caused him to terminate the deduction process was a particularly obvious wave of magical power!

Maca turned around suddenly, the quill in his hand had been tossed aside, and he clenched his staff again. In his eyes, what he saw was the dark purple light radiating from the Deathly Hallows mark on Joshua's chest.

Maca frowned, sensing the magical change in it, and cautiously stepped back a little later, placing the staff in his hand between him and Joshua.

Immediately afterwards, Joshua stared at him abruptly, and the cowardice that should have been in the pair of eyes had completely disappeared. What Maca can feel at this moment is a kind of indifferent depth.

"...Hello, child."

Joshua spoke without warning, but his tone was full of vicissitudes.

"Do you like the gift I gave you?"

Maca finally confirmed what he was deducing just now—it should be a curse that can connect remotely and force the soul of the person to be casted.

"...What do you mean?" Maca looked straight into those eyes and said, "Is that parchment in Newmont Gadry?"

A deep smile appeared on the other's face.

"Don't be kidding!" Maca sternly said, "Your conspiracy will not succeed! I will not let you hurt any of my friends! With me, you won't be able to step into Hogwarts even half of the time. Step!"

"Yes, I believe you have this strength," the other party nodded slightly, "but, why don't you think about it, where are you now?"

As soon as this word came out, Maca's face changed suddenly, and after a brief shock, his face was full of intense anger. But before he could say anything, the other party smiled softly.

"Well, what a kind child..."

"Joshua" turned his head, looked left and right, and nodded calmly.

"No wonder Albus would choose you. This should suit his appetite, because'love' is his truth!" He said, then sighed again, "Save a bunch of people trapped in the dungeon Don’t count as a child waiting to die. Even this child wants to be saved. You are a real Hufflepuff."

"But, can you save everyone in this world?" He asked, looking at Maca.

"You don't need to worry about it!" Maca glared at him, fiercely, "Professor Dumbledore has kept you there for so many years, don't you have the slightest introspection? I warn you! If you If I dare to do something to Hogwarts, even if I go through every inch of land in the world, I will find you!"

"Really?" The other party nodded earnestly, "I will wait for that day! Also, as a good friend of your teacher, I want to give you a word-you might as well return to Hogwar earlier Let’s take a look, how?"

"What's wrong with Hogwarts! You make it clear--" Maca roared.

"Um...you have a very interesting magic wand!"

As soon as this sentence was finished, the dark purple light on Joshua's chest dimmed suddenly, and the depth in his eyes gradually faded, turning into a confused color.

When Maca, who was standing in front of him, saw this, the anger on his face suddenly disappeared, and his usual calmness was restored.

"Hiss——" Maca frowned and muttered softly, "It's just a few steps away to be able to trace it, it's a pity."

Although he is a little angry, he is not so angry yet. In fact, from the moment he saw the parchment in the Tower of Newmondgard, he began to doubt Greenward's purpose.

The content on the parchment is very simple. Greenward told Maca through it that he was going to make a comeback and restart the subversive cause that was terminated by Dumbledore.

In it, he also specifically stated that he would completely destroy Hogwarts without Dumbledore.

However, what is the point of leaving such an outright "criminal notice"? Is it just to provoke people who go there?

Yes, it's a provocation! Maca discovered the doubt on the spot.

There is no doubt that the guy who left this kind of text, if it is not an idiot whose IQ cannot reach the passing line, must want to divert other people's attention.

But what exactly does that Gellert Greenward want to do? However, Maca still has no answer to this question.

In line with the principle of "the enemy's weakness is his own weight", Maca smashed Numongard on the spot, and he smashed it cleanly and decisively, releasing his anger to his heart's content.

Even if he had only doubts in his mind at the time~IndoMTL.com~ that's all.

Just now, Greenward appeared inexplicably, making Maca wonder again. Because the opponent's appearance this time was too abrupt, and there was no reason at all.

What, "As a good friend of your teacher, I want to give you a word", would the first-generation Dark Lord, who used all means to achieve his goal, say such a thing?

Anyway, Maca said he didn't believe anything.

Of course, even so, he must go back. Even if he knew that the other party had a purpose, the safety of Hogwarts was indeed an important point he had to care about.

"But don't worry about it..."

Maca picked up the quill pen from the ground, checked whether the tip of the pen was broken, and then dipped it in ink to continue the deduction on the manuscript paper.

Just now, while pretending to express his anger, he also sensed something else from the brand mark in the activation...
