985 980 [Return Chapter 5] Epilogue I
In the "Endless Palace", it seems that with the passage of time, some more furniture has been added.
Originally, the walls of this large hall were snow-white, and only the doors on the walls appeared one by one as the player completed the quest, with the name and number of the sub-worlds written on them. However, now, it is still such an empty hall, and two meters in front of the row of numbered doors, a large screen has been erected, and there is a huge ancient landscape painting on the screen, and even the background color is the beige effect of old silk - in the corner, there are beautiful calligraphy words: "Penglai Wonderland: Shi Yiyou Autumn Moon on Yuan Yao's painting".
Bypassing the huge screen, the space behind it, with the existing furnishings, becomes a simple little room: a plain solid wood bed, a table and chairs of the same color, and an elegant sofa.
At this time, a young girl was sitting on the sofa. There was a plate of grapes in the empty space next to her, and she picked them up and stuffed them into her mouth one by one, chewing as she looked at the book on her lap.
Suddenly, a cold voice suddenly appeared in this much more warm and relaxed space.
[Hey!It's not the time for a leisurely vacation!You still have a task to do!]
The young girl paused with her hand on a round grape, then first stuffed the grape into her mouth, and a bag bulged up her cheek, and then she looked up with a look of surprise.
"Mission? Didn't you say I'll have a week off when it's over? It's only a few days?"
There didn't seem to be any public address in the hall, but the cold voice from before continued to echo in midair.
[Not a mission in the new world.] It's the sweeping work of the previous HP world. 】
The young girl—that is, Liu Quan—was a little surprised.
[What are the other tasks there?!]
The phylogenetic bacteria coughed. Willow Springs' swear he felt a little uncomfortable in his voice.
[Just a little finishing touch...... It stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with sending someone else. But I think you might want to go back and take a look at the current state of that world?]
It was a systemic fungus, and the strange unease it felt at first faded as it spoke, and it even began to convince Willow Spring in a beautiful way.
[Think about it, don't you want to see with your own eyes what the world you saved and changed is like now?]
Liu Quan sneered.
[I don't know.] I still remember someone warned me sternly two days ago, I should not go back to that world, because that world has gone through many repair failures and restarts, and it is a complete fluke that it was finally repaired, and it is precisely because it is too fragile to accommodate an outsider to finally integrate into that world and continue to live as a native inhabitant, so I better stop thinking about going back and continue to work for you as a good employee.
The system fungus laughed dryly. Liu Quan felt a little embarrassed in his tone.
[There's nothing wrong with that...... However, since you've been reckless enough to cause that world to be temporarily repaired, we think it's worth compensating the important people in that world a little more......]
Liu Quan sneered again and raised his eyebrows high.
[Who are you referring to?Dumbledore?or Severus Snape?]
The phylogenetic bacteria coughed again. Today it coughed so many times that it was probably enough to reach the level of tuberculosis.
[Dumbledore's death cannot be changed or reversed. We have tried this possibility in previous failures. Unfortunately, that's not feasible. 】
Liu Quan sighed.
In fact, she also knew in her heart that the option of Dumbledore's survival must be a relatively advanced option, which had already been tried by previous players. Of course, it didn't work out. Otherwise, there would be no such task for her.
But who else is that? Severus Snape, Cialis Black?......
Snape is, of course, a key figure in clearing the game. At this point he was even more important than Dumbledore. However, Liu Quan couldn't think of any special compensation for him. Siris was saved by her forcible snatching of the boxed lunch, and it would be good if the system bacteria didn't hold her accountable for almost overturning the world, where could it be possible to compensate him more?
couldn't think clearly, so Liu Quan simply didn't want to. She put down the book on her lap and stood up, walked around the huge landscape painting screen, crossed her hands around her chest, and stood on the "Wall of Achievement" of the "Endless Palace"—oh, that's the loud name she had set up for that wall without permission—staring at the relief door in front of her that had [Harry Potter #1645033] written on it, and asked slowly: [...... What do you need me to go back and do?]
The system bacteria laughed.
[Without alarming the main characters, leave them a message—a very useful spell they don't know about, about the soul.] 】
Liu Quan: [...... Voldemort might be angry if he knew...... No, he can't die again anyway. ]
The system snorted.
[He pursues resurrection and immortality...... It has nothing to do with this spell that puts the soul in its place. It said lightly in a peculiar mocking tone.
Willow Springs: !!
She asked slowly, "...... So, you're going to let Lily Evans' soul return to her original shell, right?"
The system pauses before answering.
[Not bad.] Its tone sounded rigid, as if it were a forcible final order, emotionless, and with the intent of stopping and admonishing.
[We tried, but we couldn't extract the soul of the character "Lily Evans" and leave that world - seriously, the balance of that world is now like that game of stacking blocks and drawing until the last bit of balance, and any change is no longer able to bear it...... Therefore, we must fix the character of "Lily Evans" so that she can stay in that world and finish the rest of her life. 】
Liu Quan seemed stunned. It took a few seconds before she raised her head and exhaled, asking as if giving up, "...... How can I fix it? When I left that world, didn't you return Lily's soul to its original place?"
The sound of the system bacteria is becoming more and more rigid.
[In doing so, the movement is too big - that is, it is too contrary to the laws of that world.] The last remedy we can do now is to use "magic" to return Lily's soul to its original form. Moreover, this "magic" cannot be written directly into anyone's mind...... To do this, we need a messenger. And it's better not to make a big fuss...... Whether it's sending a surface mail or asking an owl to send a message, in short, convey this "magic" to the people who are most capable of realizing it in a way that the world recognizes. 】
It paused for a second.
【...... That man was Severus Snape. 】
Liu Quan: ?!
"You mean, let me send Severus Snape a letter and tell him how this so-called 'soul magic' is cast, so that he can put the real Lily Evans's soul back into its original shell?!" she asked rhetorically, a little incredulous.
The system replied: "Exactly. 】
Liu Quan: "......"
“...... Can you arrange it a little more bloody?" she almost laughed at for a moment.
The system fungus replied stiffly: "Yes. ...... There is one more condition that you must meet. Your own existence can no longer be perceived by the laws of that world, because you are an alien invader, and you are easily resisted, repelled and tried to eliminate by the laws of the world...... Therefore, when you go to deliver a letter, you must not appear as "Lily Evans" or "Bigonia Kollenbon", two forms known to others in that world, and you must not be recognized by others throughout the delivery process. 】
Liu Quan: "......"
"I think you'd better send someone there casually. I don't want to—" Before she could finish her refusal, she heard a sneer.
[I thought you had some affection for Severus Snape.] That's why I'm giving you such an opportunity to visit. You know, you won't have a chance to go if you want to go in the future. 】
LIU QUAN ANGRILY SAID ANGRILY, "SEND ME TO VISIT WHAT?SEE HOW HAPPY HE IS WITH THE REAL LILY?THANK YOU, I DON'T HAVE THIS SPECIAL NEED FOR SADISM—"
【Go for it.】 Like a Stoica, take a look, send a letter, then sort out your mood and come back and start again. The system abruptly interrupted her. For some reason, its tone seemed to suddenly be softer, with a hint of eloquent persuasion.
[I know the way to get you back isn't good enough-]
Liu Quan laughed angrily.
"So you know that way is 'not good enough?!Drag a big snake around that old house in Godric's Hollow, and you can't kill it right away, because 'the right time has not yet come......'! Moreover, you also asked me to set up a scene where there should be traces of the snake's body repeatedly wandering and moving on the ground, and there should be traces of blood...... Did you know that it wasn't an ordinary snake, but one of the biggest boss Horcruxes in the original game......?!
[Alright, alright.] Maybe it's a bit of a loss, but this time the tone is milder.
If you still regard the people who live in that world as important beings, then everything you do—your efforts, your sacrifices, and even those sacrifices and sorrows—are meaningful. It says.
[If you don't want to see him again, I can also choose someone else instead.] It's nothing more than just sending a letter...... However, I think you'll want this one. 】
It paused again.
[Last chance.] 】
Liu Quan stared at the door, and then looked up, staring at somewhere on the ceiling - the broadcast of the system bacteria might not be there either, but if she didn't stare at any fixed point, maybe the tears that had welled up in her eyes would have burst out.
“...... Well, I'll go. She finally replied.
So, she was dropped directly in front of the door of 19 Spider Tail Alley.

The painting on the screen at the beginning of this chapter is actually the background of an entire wall in the hotel room where I am staying now
I felt that it was very meaningful, so I learned and sold w
