"Whoa—"

When Maca resurfaced from the lake, it was already completely dark.

"Maka, you've been around for a long time."

Seeing this, Willy, who had been waiting on the shore, immediately got up from the lit bonfire and hurried to the lake to see if something had happened to Maca.

"yes!" Maca glanced up, the stars in the sky made people feel very comfortable, "This trip has indeed taken longer than I expected. ”

With that, he brushed his hand on his body and dried his robe for a while, before following Willy to the campfire and sitting down.

"I wanted to go down to look for you in the evening, but my father wouldn't let me."

Hearing Willy say this, Maca couldn't help but pat her head and smiled softly.

"It's true that you don't have to go down, I said there was nothing dangerous, did you?" As he spoke, he nodded at Mr. Blois across the campfire, and then added, "By the way, have you had dinner?" ”

"Late for some dry food." Blois replied.

When Maca heard this, she immediately shrugged her shoulders, and then took out some sausages and bread and other things, and roasted them by the flame of the bonfire.

"If you're not full, eat more...... Well, it's a picnic. ”

However, Monsieur Blois was apparently not very interested in this, and Willy, who was probably full, only watched with interest as Maca squeaked by the fire with a skewered sausage from a twig she had picked up.

After a slight pause, she suddenly said:

"Maka, aren't we going back quickly? Miss Hohenheim and Miss Goffreyne, will they not be able to keep the church? ”

"Oh, it's all right," Maka said, shaking her head, "as long as Helbo doesn't come over herself, Sarah will be fine." And Helpo...... For some reason, he himself will not act freely for the time being. ”

"Why?" Hearing this, Monsieur Blois finally asked, "What 'sake'?" ”

"I can't say that."

Makar stretched out her hands slightly, and then withdrew the sausage that had been roasted to the point of oozing oil from the fire, and took a bite with a sigh. While feeling the fresh fragrance that cracked in his mouth, he suddenly turned to say:

"Willy, would you like to accompany me back to Hogwarts for a few days?"

Although she didn't know why Maca had inexplicably brought up the school again, Willy obviously had no reason to refuse. When she heard it, she immediately nodded happily and said:

"If you want to go, I'll go."

On the other hand, although he didn't get the answer she wanted from Maca just now, Willy's father didn't react much. Because now he knows exactly what he wants - as long as his daughter can be well, everything else doesn't matter.

Under this premise, he can only choose to believe in Maca now, and there is no other option.

"Willie goes, then I'll go too." So said Mr. Blois.

"Okay!" Maca doesn't care about the authenticity, "You can go, you can go wherever you want...... Oh, huhu...... It's a little hot. ”

After eating something and boiling a pot of tea by the fire, the three of them drank it separately, Maca simply threw her head back and lay on the slightly cool lake beach and looked at the starry sky.

"Willy, Mr. Blois...... Did you know? Before you enter Hogwarts and realize that this is a world full of magic...... There was a time when I would often lie on the roof like this and look at the stars. At that time, I always wondered if I lived near one of the stars in my last life, and lived an almost ordinary life every day......

When Makawu said these "stupid things" to herself, Willy on the side couldn't help but hold her hands on the ground and raised her head to look at the twinkling stars.

She looked at it for a moment, and then said:

"Maca, do people really have a previous life?"

When Maca heard this, she suddenly smiled as if she thought it was funny, and then he hooked the corners of his mouth and said:

"I don't know about anyone else, but I'm going to speak my own words...... It seems that there is a previous life. When I was a child, I used to dream about it at night when I was sleeping. It was a place like the world it is now, except that there was no magic, no wizards, no Voldemort and no Helpo...... Oh, of course, maybe I just didn't know - just like I did before I got the Hogwarts notice. It's just that in my previous life, I was just a Muggle who didn't know anything. ”

"So, there's no more of us in your dreams?"

Willie blinked, as if she was a little lost, but Maca looked at her amusefully and said:

"I didn't even know you outside my dreams! If I had dreamed of you at the time, it would have been really scary! ”

"Oh," Willy thought for a moment, and nodded, "yes, too." ”

Moments later, the campfire was extinguished in the casual conversation between him and Willy, and the three of them fell asleep in a rare place without Helbo and the living corpses.

But it didn't take long for Maca to suddenly frown slightly, and then suddenly woke up from her light sleep.

"Luna, Hermione, Harry, Neville...... Is it all in the past? ”

He opened his eyes as if he had sensed it, and after sensing it, he couldn't help but raise his hand and scratch his head, and then sighed softly.

"Honestly, I'm a little scared to see them...... "Well, presumably they're not impulsive enough to go straight to London and break into Buckingham Palace." Moreover, this is also something that they will have to face sooner or later. ”

Thinking like this, he closed his eyes again and fell asleep again.

……

"Huh?"

In the atrium of Winchester Cathedral, Luna suddenly turned her head and glanced down the hallway.

"What's wrong?" Hermione couldn't help but ask when she saw her move.

"Miss Hohenheim is coming." Luna said, "Seems to be in a good mood." ”

Before he could finish speaking, everyone who was sitting at the front of the prayer seat looked towards the door, and then soon saw that Sarah, who was petite, had really come out of the doorway.

And behind her, there was also an alchemy doll holding a tray steadily.

"You're all friends with Maca, please forgive me if you neglect something." Sarah said, gently walking in front of the crowd and standing still, then waved her hand and said, "Please have tea!" It's cooked with maca left in the kitchen with Godigan, and I think you'll like it. ”

As she spoke, the doll had already handed out the teacups and poured a cup of tea for everyone. Then, in silence, it put its hands to its side and stood aside.

But I saw that although each of its postures seemed to be stiff and weird, its movements were surprisingly flexible and meticulous, and it was particularly quick to do its work.

"Oh, yes! Although this can't be considered a question for Maca, it ...... What are you doing here at Winchester? I don't think Maca will necessarily welcome you! ”

Sarah paused for a moment, then asked bluntly.
