Chapter 1553: "Becoming a Muggle"
Death is undoubtedly a source of fear for most people, but there are many other things in this world that can be feared.
And it's worth mentioning that everyone's fear is often different. It's like Boggart will change his appearance to scare each other when facing different people.
Fear depends on everyone's different lives.
But here comes the problem...... If someone loses even her own life, where will her fear come from?
The question is obviously simple, because the fact that she "lost her life" is also part of her life, and this confusing mutilation may become the biggest fear of her life.
However, Delphi is undoubtedly strong.
Now she can't even figure out whether she has lost the past. But if a Boggart suddenly appeared in front of her at this moment, then the thing that the Boggart conjured up would definitely not be a woman who had no past.
When she has such a gentle and powerful "father" who is willing to shelter her, what kind of life she has lived in the past seems to be no longer so important to her.
Yes, even if all the "memories" in my mind are false. But the warmth and trust she's felt since that day is all real, isn't it?
That's enough, as long as you can stay by Maca's side and use your strength to help each other, that's enough for Delphi.
It's a pity that the development of life after that did not go as smoothly as she thought.
In the past few days, Delphi has gradually noticed that some changes are taking place in his body. At first, she didn't pay much attention to it, because although she found that the magic power in her body seemed to be reduced, the magic power of the wizard was the same as the physical state, and there were small changes every day.
However, when she suddenly realizes that her magical power is decreasing day by day, and that even the casting of magic will be affected accordingly, she finally realizes that this is a very serious problem.
However, the period when Delphi's body showed obvious abnormalities overlapped with the beginning of the plague of the living corpses.
She saw that everyone was working, fighting, and even sacrificing for the calamity that Helbo had caused, including Maca, who was busier than anyone else.
In this case, Delphi can only bury her personal problem in the bottom of her heart and try to solve it on her own.
The loss of magic has made it more and more difficult for her to examine and study herself, and this unexplained change has made her always have no clue about the root of the problem.
And until today, the speed of the reduction of demonic power has suddenly accelerated again!
When Maca asked her to carry out that part of the plan not long ago, she thought that with the original reduction, she could at least barely complete the task today.
After all, except for the need to face Helbo at the end, other actions are not difficult.
Therefore, she originally planned to go to the front line to contribute a combat force. But in order to accumulate strength so that she could complete the task entrusted to her by Maca herself, she still did not leave Spiral Town after all.
But who knows, it's not dark yet! The magic in her body had reached the point where she was close to running out of oil, and at this time, she was lying quietly on the edge of the window, and she could even clearly feel that her magic might be completely exhausted at any time.
"Dad, why is this happening?"
……
Apparently, Maca also wanted to know why.
"Mana Waves...... Still weakening? ”
At this moment, in the shade of the tree directly below Delphi's window, Maca, who was maintaining a state of invisibility, also looked puzzled.
Although in order to avoid being discovered by Delphi now, he did not directly perceive the subtle conditions in Delphi's body. But just by sensing the fluctuations of the other party's emana emanation, he could perceive the changes that had become quite obvious.
As long as Delphi does not control it autonomously, then the weakening of the magic power fluctuation naturally means that the magic power in her body decreases accordingly.
What's more, such a rapid reduction rate is too abnormal.
"But, that's the case......" Maca thought for a moment, but couldn't help but nod her head secretly, "It was because of the accident in her body that she didn't rush to the front line. ”
But what's the problem? What is it that makes Delphi, who is almost second only to him in strength on our side, suddenly have such a change?
It was unheard of to reduce a wizard's total magic power like this.
Even Maca, who had always been fond of studying the history of magic and had read a lot of texts, both ancient and modern, could not remember if there had been a similar precedent in the past.
You know, although the magic in the wizard's body decreases with use, this thing will also regenerate over time!
However, the magic of Delphi is now completely like a momentum that is about to disappear completely.
So what's next? Could this phenomenon in her body be cyclical? Will her magic power ever come back again?
Or, what will become of Delphi when the magic is gone?
"Could it be that it will become a ...... Muggles? ”
Maca looked up at Delphi at the window, silently thinking.
In fact, when the idea of "becoming a Muggle" popped into his mind, he was just thinking about it casually. But soon, as if he had thought of something else, his eyes suddenly became serious.
"Wait...... 'become a Muggle'?"
I saw that Maca carefully repeated this thought in her heart again and again at random, and then suddenly felt a shock in her heart.
"Muggle ...... Muggle ...... So that's it! He pondered it for a moment, and then finally his eyes lit up, "No wonder I used so many potions on her at that time, but it barely worked...... Yes! If she did end up being a Muggle, no amount of wizarding potions I could use would be of any avail! ”
And with this conjecture, why did Delphi become like this...... It seems that a possibility can finally be reversed.
Thinking of this, Maca couldn't help but reorganize his thoughts, and then he immediately grabbed an answer that flashed in his mind:
"That's right! It's just because ...... I changed the future of Delphi! ”
Just as Maca came to this conclusion, a whistling sound suddenly sounded in the air, causing him and Delphi to look up at the window.
