Chapter 1105: Illuri without a surname
What Martin smashed into the ground was a magical plant fruit called "Fog Melon".
As the name suggests, the fruit releases a dense mist when bitten or broken, allowing creatures trying to feed themselves to get lost in the rainforest.
Of course, because this fruit looks very much like a shrunken pumpkin, it is often nicknamed "Mist Halloween" by wizards. It is said that in the past, when the wizarding world began to hold Halloween parties every year, they would throw a few seeds on the ground to add some atmosphere.
At that time, this harmless and pleasing fruit suddenly became popular throughout the European magical world, and became a very popular holiday item.
However, since the fruit itself has no medicinal properties and only sells well around Halloween every year, few people have ever made any intention to grow it.
Year after year, the production of foggy melons, which is not too large, naturally becomes less and less because there are always people who will run to several production areas to pick them before Halloween.
Until now, there has only been one Enchanted Botanical Garden, which saves endangered plants, and occasionally holds a limited edition event to promote the concept of protecting plants and animals.
I don't know if this Martin visited the botanical garden on Halloween in which year, and received such a "Halloween Limited Edition" fog melon, which happened to be used tonight.
To be honest, when Lucius and Draco were instantly surrounded by such a large thick fog, their hearts were equally broken.
But Martin's Fog Melon is also a clever use - an almost completely enclosed interior space like the underground church not only keeps the fog produced by the Fog Melon longer, but is also particularly difficult to dispel.
The next moment when the fog filled the entire church, many of the wizards who followed Lucius habitually cast spells that swirled the air currents. But there is no other effect other than making the fog in the room churn incessantly.
"Vanishing Spell! With the Vanishing Charm—"
Lucius waved his wand in the thick mist as he loudly reminded the others to do the same.
Then, when the fog had thinned out in pieces, they saw that the cultists who had been fighting back and forth with them just now had all apparitioned.
The wizards summoned by Lucius were all very annoyed by this, and some even complained in low voices because they had lost their credit.
But only the Malfoy father and son, who were standing in front of the church, looked at each other and nodded.
"Anyone with the Phantom Shift Detection Ball? While they've just left, let's see if we can find where those guys have gone! Someone hurriedly shouted, "Even if you can detect the approximate direction and distance!" ”
As the words fell, the wizards in the entire underground church went into action again, and for a while they seemed very busy.
It's a pity that the alchemical tools of this era are generally too accurate. At times like this, he may have to call Maca over to make him, the "humanoid detector", determine where Martin's gang had fled.
However, if you have to know where they are now, it doesn't seem to be too much of a hassle, does it?
"Draco, you've done a great job today - especially with that Smashing Charm, which almost cost that guy!"
With a relieved smile, Lucius praised his son before saying:
"It's getting late, there's class tomorrow, so go back to school! I'll leave it to me here. ”
Draco was naturally happy to receive his father's praise. But what made him even happier was that from tonight onwards, his father was finally able to appear in front of people without any burden.
Although Draco never mentioned the hurtful words he had said to his father when he was seduced by mysterious powers, he still felt a little sorry in his heart.
Now, though, it's mostly thanks to the opportunities given by McLean's guy. But not only does it save his father from having to hide at home all day, but it also gives the Malfoy family the possibility of resurrection, which is obviously a worthwhile deal.
"Yes, father."
Even though he had a lot to say in his heart, Draco didn't say anything in the end, just silently answered. Immediately afterward, he apparition and left the underground church.
……
Draco's mission was complete, and the rest of the story would be left to his father, Lucius Malfoy. As for the future development of the Malfoy family, it depends on Lucius's consciousness.
After all, their family is now completely on the opposite side of Helbo, and they can't be a wobbly wall grass like before.
At the same time, Pansy is on the streets of London with the witch with fairy blood.
In fact, although she also took advantage of the thick fog made by Martin to leave the underground church, the visible position was only chosen randomly.
At that time, she was just looking for a remote place, so she somehow remembered a corner along the Thames, and then subconsciously appeared here with the little witch next to her.
“…… Where is this? ”
As Pansy frowned at the injury on her shoulder, she heard the little witch beside her muttered to herself.
But soon, the other party saw the river behind him.
Although it's nighttime, the lights of the city of London are colorful, reflected in the dark surface of the river, and the scenery is full of wine and wine.
Pansy put her hand on her shoulder with her wand, and after a moment of hesitation, she said:
"Where is your home? I'll send you back...... Then, do you have any healing potions at home? I think I need to treat the wound on my shoulder. ”
However, the little witch was stunned when she heard this, and then quickly shook her head. Although Pansy couldn't see the expression on the other party's face because of the hood, she could still feel the regret in the other person's heart.
"I'm sorry," she replied in that shrill voice, "I'm ...... I can't go over there, I'm really sorry! Also, you'd better stop using the Phantom Shifter Charm, because if you cast the spell with an injury, there's a good chance that a split accident will happen! ”
Pansy knew that the other party was actually right—especially since she wasn't very skilled in using the Apparition Shifting Charm, and it was already very reluctant to bring someone with her just now, and it was hard to say if she could succeed if she did this again.
With this in mind, she used the cleansing charm to remove the blood from her body, and then beckoned the little witch to walk to the side of the road near the river beach.
"In that case, let's call the knight bus! I'll take you home first, and then I'll go and open a room at the Leaky Cauldron to take care of my wounds...... Although most of the shops in Diagon Alley have closed, there should still be a potion shop open on the other side of Tumble Alley. ”
Obviously, it was impossible for her injuries to be treated at St. Mungo, even at the Magical Hospital, which would accept patients who needed urgent treatment at night.
As she spoke, Pansy had already waved her wand on the side of the road.
"Crunch—"
"Oh, no...... If you don't go back yet, I'll go to the Leaky Cauldron with you! ”
The knight's bus is notoriously on-call, and when the little witch speaks, two bright lights suddenly jump in front of the two from a distance as the body turns from virtual to real.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus, an emergency passenger ...... for witches or wizards in distress"
The same set of service phrases came out of the mouth of the conductor leaning against the door, and the tone was still so boring that Pansy didn't even want to listen to it.
Compared to Draco, who barely rode the knight's bus, Pansy had been there many times. I saw that she familiarly took out a handful of silver sike from her pocket, counted out a part, and put it in the hands of the conductor.
"Are you sure you don't want to go back first?" She replied, "If you go back too late, will anyone in the family find out about your night out?" ”
"Ah, it's okay! Just go back before dawn. ”
As she spoke, the little witch began to pick up the coin, but Pansy graciously helped her pay for it.
Although the Parkinson's family is indeed a little short of money, it is not even a little money for a car.
Not long after, after a delightful rush to the left and right, they quickly got off the bus and came to the side of the street where the Leaky Cauldron was located.
In the car, because there were other people there, the two basically didn't have much communication. And when she got out of the car at this time, Pansy asked casually:
"By the way, I'm Pansy Parkinson...... You may know, the pure-blooded Parkinson's family. Excuse me...... What shall I call you? ”
"Uh...... Just call me Ilully," said the little witch, "sorry, I don't have a last name. ”
It can be heard that when she said this, her tone was somewhat low. From this point of view, it is very likely that her fairy bloodline comes from her father.
"I don't have to apologize for that, because I don't think it's something to be ashamed of...... Also, I think you can use your father's name as a surname, how about that idea? ”
Pansy secretly chooses words in her mind in the hope that she can take her relationship with the other person one step further.
It's a pity that she has never tried to do such a comforting thing, and now she is obviously a little stiff when she adapts to it temporarily.
Fortunately, Iruli, who was walking next to her, didn't notice this at all.
"I knew about the Parkinson's family, but I didn't expect that there would be a good person like you in the pure-blood family...... Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to speak ill of pure-blood wizards! ”
