Chapter 1477: A Tiresome Metaphor
"Eternal time has formed a circle, the sin of nothingness has deteriorated into reality, and 'chaos' has returned."
In Trelawney's prophecy this time, this previous sentence can actually be said to be a foreshadowing, but it may also be a warning.
No matter how much Lupin could understand from this sentence, at least, Maca roughly understood.
First of all, the first sentence is about Maca's repeated entry into the long river of time with the help of a time turner.
In order to allow Delphi, who was destined to disappear in this timeline, to survive without incident, Maca struggles to decipher the rules of time and forcibly sets a benign trap for her.
From the moment he handed the engraved time-turner into the hands of the young Delphi, Delphi's time, which should have been disconnected, finally formed a closed ring......
As for the second and third sentences in the prophecy, it is easier to understand.
Maca knew that the so-called "sin of nothingness" was naturally the black demon summoned by Helpo's summoning technique; And if the "chaos" in the third paragraph is not Helbo himself, who else could it be?
It's just that for Lupin, who has also read this prophecy, the circle of time cannot know it in the first place. In the latter two paragraphs, he is probably likely to think that "sin" and "chaos" are talking about Helbo.
In this regard, because it will inevitably become very difficult to explain, and it is more likely to misunderstand Lupin if he does not explain it well, so Maca actually has no intention of explaining it to him in this first sentence alone.
"The focus of this prophecy is the second sentence," Maka said, pointing to the second half of the ciphertext on the note, frowning slightly, "'When chaos opens the door to calamity, matter will be eroded, rules will be reordered, and fate will fall apart...... Well, I don't think there will be a clearer prophecy in history! ”
"yes!" Lupin smiled wryly, "Isn't that just saying...... 'We're going to be finished soon'?" ”
Hearing this, Maca couldn't help but shrug her shoulders.
After a few moments, he reached out and pointed to the note that read "Open the door to calamity", his brow visibly furrowing more and more.
"I'm a little sorry for Professor Trelawney, but I'd like to say that's why Hermione didn't like divination and prophecy like that. For even if it is such a clear prophecy, the most crucial point is necessarily vague......"
In the end, maybe even Maca was in a terrible mood by the bad news one after another today, and couldn't help but shake her head and say:
"You say...... Are prophetic prophecies so fond of metaphors? ”
……
By the time Luna ran back to the main hall of the New Ministry of Magic, the conversation between Maca and Lupin had long since come to an end.
While the most important places are still confusing, what will happen next has already revealed unpleasant outlines.
Of course, this kind of thing must not be easily known to Luna.
"Lupin, just continue to do things at the same pace as before, and don't be distracted by just two sentences."
With that, Maca immediately got up and greeted Luna, who had just stepped into the hall. On the way, when he passed the chair with the dining basket, he also lifted it in his hand.
"Luna, let's go! Although these desserts of yours are a little weird, it's rare that you bother to make them, so let's take them and share them with everyone! If others don't say it, Fred and George, I guess I'm sure I'll like it......"
Before he finished speaking, he had just beckoned Luna back to the door, when he suddenly sensed a familiar magic fluctuation appear on the street outside.
"Huh? Is it Ron? ”
Ron, who was supposed to be punished in the observation room, would come here, which was obviously not normal.
"Maca! Oh, you're here...... The Muggle lady didn't respond to her shouting, and Hermione asked me to call you over and have a look. ”
Because that lady is indeed a person with a good temperament, she often gives people the feeling of a sister. So when she had a problem, Ron seemed to be worried.
"Well, you take a breath...... Didn't I say that? This cannot be said to be a normal situation, but it is bound to happen. Don't worry, you and Luna just take your time, I'll go first...... By the way, you can stop by and try those snacks baked by Luna. ”
That being said, in fact, Maca's heart may not be much easier than Ron's, because those two are both carriers of the possibility of "living corpses" that he has confirmed, and their situation can be said to be quite critical to Maca's next plan.
In a short time, Maca's figure flashed, and she quickly walked to the new St. Mungo's building, which was not far away.
Harry, who was guarding the door of the observation room, immediately beckoned to Maca who appeared at the end of the underground corridor, and then pointed to the closed doorway:
"So fast? Oh, and Hermione was staring inside...... It took less than ten minutes to find out that the other party couldn't move! ”
A little surprised by Ron's efficiency in finding people, he said his current state.
"I see," Maka nodded slightly, "and what about the other side?" Who's taking care of it here? Didn't a similar situation happen over there? ”
"Ginny is guarding over there! I just asked her to confirm that her consciousness is still very clear, no problem! ”
"Okay, then you can keep guarding here! Ron and Luna will be over soon...... By the way, don't let anyone in while I'm inside. ”
With that, Harry's affirmative response, Maca opened the door and walked into the observation room.
"Maca"
"Hermione, go out too! It's okay, she'll have no problems, and she'll be able to wake up again in a while. ”
Hermione, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, turned her head when she heard the sound, and then looked at the bed again before nodding at Maca and leaving without saying a word.
As there was a cautious sound of the door closing, Maca turned her back to the door and stood in a position where the Muggle lady on the hospital bed could not see it, revealing a hint of concern.
However, it didn't seem to be the lady in bed who was worried, but ...... The few friends who were arranged by him to stay here.
But soon, he put away the slight worry on his face, stepped forward, lowered his head, and said with a smile:
"Ma'am, remember what I said earlier? Don't worry, I'm here, it's fine. Relax and be liberated from this state for a while......"
No matter what you're thinking, it's important to keep a smile as much as possible that reassures you when dealing with a patient.
To some extent, it's good for Maca to simply become a therapist in the future, and this profession seems to be really suitable for him.
