Chapter 1605: The Embarrassed Noah
The windows on one side of the corridor after another, allowing the afternoon sun to silently penetrate through, dividing the entire corridor into a space of light and darkness.
Combined with the medieval architecture of Blois Castle, walking through it always gives people a wonderful sense of detachment, as if you are traveling back and forth through time and space.
However, Maca does not have this illusion - he knows very well that real time travel is not as easy and leisurely as this.
After a few moments, Maca finally brought the straight corridor to the end, and then made a mistake and turned into another corridor behind the corner.
When we arrived, there were no windows that let in the sun, only doors and magic wall lamps in the hallways as the light faded.
However, after leaving the sunshine, Maca seems to have become a little more relaxed.
After all, the magic light wasn't as much as daylight, but it still illuminated the hallway. But at least, it doesn't have the reassuring warmth of the sun.
Yes, Maca doesn't like that warmth at all right now. Because it was comfortable, but it wasn't what he was entitled to enjoy at the moment.
"Click."
Just as Maca was halfway down the hallway, suddenly, Luna's door opened not far ahead. And then, Noah's chubby figure squeezed out of the door frame.
"Maka, you're here too?"
Ron came out after Noah, and as soon as he saw Maka, he was the first to say hello.
"yes!"
Maca answered, but her gaze remained on Noah's body and did not take her eyes off. It can be seen that at this moment, the fat man's face still has a faint expression of thought, so that he obviously went out before Ron, but he didn't find out about Maca's existence until Ron opened his mouth.
"What's wrong, Noah? Thinking about something? β
Maca didn't stop, and walked towards them as she spoke. After seeing Noah stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head hurriedly, he turned to say:
"Are you going downstairs?"
"Well," Ron nodded in response to Maca's words, "I just brought Noah to visit Luna, and I'm going to talk to Percy with him about alchemy." You know, Percy is now hoping to find a path that suits him...... Of course, so do I! β
"Want to try alchemy?" Maca said, "It's okay, I'll see you later!" β
He waved his hand, passed the two of them, and turned to the door they had just come out of. And from beginning to end, Noah couldn't even say a word.
"Hey, buddy, what are you thinking?"
"Oh no, nothing...... I'm just wondering, what should I tell you about in a moment? Well...... What do you think of starting with the 'Origin of the Four Elements'? β
"The four elements? Do you mean 'copper, tin, silver, gold'? β
"Nope! Those are the four regular materials of the crucible...... By the way, cauldrons are often used in alchemy, but we can only use gold...... Of course, if you are short of money, you can also use a gold-plated general......"
Soon, Noah and Ron were gone away with the sound of their conversations.
β¦β¦
Regardless of the fat young master's alchemy level, at least he has been educated by the Hohenheim family, and his basic knowledge of alchemy is still very solid, and Maca is not worried that he will "teach Ron and Percy badly".
As for whether the Weasley brothers had that talent in alchemy, Maca didn't know, after all, even he wasn't all that familiar with the subject.
Right now, he's just a little concerned about Noah's state - it's clear that the guy has been preoccupied since he came out of Luna's room.
ββ¦β¦ Are you struggling? β
Maca paused as she first stepped into the room, then put that thought aside for a moment and smiled at Hermione and Hannah, who were looking at her.
"Is it okay here? Nothing out of the ordinary happened, right? β
"No, no," replied Hermione, settling the book she seemed to have just opened, and sitting in the chair on the edge of the bed, "all is fine except that she can't wake up." β
"Hmm."
Maka bowed slightly, and after glancing at Luna on the bed, she sat down as well.
"I don't say anything like 'hard work' anymore, and I don't think you guys like to hear it. But...... I just heard that you do all the cleaning with your own hands? β
"At least that will give us more peace of mind," Hermione said softly, glancing at Hannah as she was boiling tea in front of the fireplace, "Of course, the maid at Blois Fort might do a better job than the two of us combinedβyou know, we just wanted to do it ourselves, just to make ourselves feel better." β
Hannah has always been a good friend of Luna, and although the two belong to different houses at Hogwarts, they both have similar personalities and temperaments. It's no surprise to do something like this for a good friend who is in a coma.
As for Hermione, she was "saved" by Luna, apparently not to mention.
"Okay!"
Maca shrugged slightly, just about to change the subject and say something else so that both Hermione and Hannah's hearts would not be so tense all the time. But who knows, before he could speak again, Hermione, who was sitting on the other side of the bed, spoke first:
"Maca, about what you mentioned after lunch...... Can you tell me more about Hogwarts Castle? β
For Hogwarts, who had been with everyone for nearly six years, suddenly collapsed overnight, Hermione's shock and sadness in their hearts may be deeper than that of Marca. After all, if you really want to calculate it, they have been studying and living in school for more time than Maca has been at Hogwarts.
So to be honest, Maca didn't really want to go into too much detail about last night.
However, as Hogwarts students, Hermione and her sisters clearly had the right to know more about the destruction of the school.
Maca looked back and forth at the faces of the two girls, and when Hannah, who had always been a little timid, nodded seriously, he smiled bitterly, and then repeated his battle with the meteorite and with Helbo in more detail.
This account took a long time, and by the time he said that he had left the ruins of the castle and came to Fort Blois, Hannah had already drunk two cups of black tea.
However, it was clear that the Hufflepuff Chamber and the mysterious crate he had found were impossible to mention to both of Hermione.
"Okay, the tea has been drunk, and the matter has been clarified...... "Maca suddenly put down the teacup and said, "Then, you should go down and relax with everyone first!" I'd like to do another check for Luna. β
