Chapter 2046: "You're Afraid"

In fact, the old butler didn't know very well, why Willy had clearly said before that he didn't like the people of the Brandt family, but when he briefly talked about the attack on Denmark, he chose to come to the side hall.

But he knew very well that as long as Willy didn't want to say, it would definitely be useless to ask.

So...... Yes, since Willy was going, he just had to follow. Anyway, even if Mr. Blois was here, he would definitely follow Willy's opinion, and the old butler certainly understood this.

Therefore, when the two of them went to the wing hall on the first floor of Beauxbatons Castle, not only Madame Maxim was puzzled, but even the old butler did not know any better than she did.

Of course, nothing apparently prevented them from continuing the conversation.

"Miss Brandt," Maxim gestured slightly, "this is Miss Willy Blois, heir to the House of Blois, the only daughter of the head of the House of Blois. And then...... Well, the old gentleman behind her must not need me to make any unnecessary introductions. ”

Because Willie has basically never shown much to outsiders since she was a child, the other families know that the head of the Blois family has a daughter, but most of them have never seen it with their own eyes.

However, this is clearly a thing of the past.

In recent years, due to Maca's activity and Mr. Blois's personal expeditions several times, some of Willy's movements have long been included in the scope of intelligence gathering by various forces. Just like this time in Beauxbatons, many pairs of eyes were already fixed on where she was.

"Of course," said Miss Brandt, who was timidly opposite, and could not help but glance a little at Willy and the old butler, and then said softly, "I certainly know Monsieur Blois Butler—my father has allowed me to attend several important balls and celebrations since the age of fourteen, and I have seen Mr. Butler a few times from afar. But...... Good morning, Miss Blois! This should still be our ...... First time meeting, right? ”

"Huh?"

As Miss Brandt spoke, Willy seemed to be looking at her and thinking about things at the same time, and did not listen too closely.

"Oh, really?"

Whether she has met each other or not, Willie really doesn't know, because she hasn't paid much attention to others all along. Plants were obviously more interested in her than people.

But when others take the initiative to talk to her, she still takes it seriously - this is one of the few things her mother used to teach when she was a child.

"Good morning, nice to meet you."

Willie replied politely, though there was not even a trace of "joy" on her delicate face when she responded.

When the words fell a little, Willy continued:

"Miss Brandt, do you know what your family is going to do next about Denmark?"

It must be said that her somewhat abrupt inquiry actually sounded a little puzzled to the other three people present. No one, including the old butler, understood what she wanted to know.

Is it asking the Brandt family's defense plan in the face of impending disaster? Or is it actually trying to test whether the Brandt family will choose to escape?

Or...... In fact, he was teasing the Brandt family, and now he sent a girl who was not much older than her to ask for help?

It was precisely because she didn't know about Willy that she couldn't tell what level she had in mind. And this, in a purposeful negotiation, is often the cause of self-chaos.

"I ...... Our family just wants to ask the Resistance Alliance and your family to lend us a helping hand in this time of crisis. Miss Brandt pursed her lips, and after a moment of hesitation, she said slowly, "As for the rest...... It should just be some precautionary preparations within our capabilities. ”

However, when Willy heard her say this, she couldn't help but tilt her head. That expression looked even more confused than her.

"Your family wants our help? Why? Surprise gradually appeared on her face, "Isn't Denmark the one who is experiencing disaster now?" Shouldn't we help them as much as we can first? ”

These few questions of Willy can be said to go deep into the soul.

In fact, Willy's idea couldn't be simpler—help is needed wherever there is a great deal of trouble, and resistance goes wherever the enemy attacks.

Isn't that the most important principle that the Resistance Alliance should adhere to? Otherwise, what is this group that has gathered so many forces "resisting"?

There was no doubt that Hermione had the right idea when she created this alliance. Even if so many things are still out of reach that her approach may be frustrated by the harsh reality, no one can say that she is doing it wrong.

However, just because Hermione was right doesn't mean everyone else was right.

Maxim's vision is not short-sighted, but her focus is always on the safety of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which dooms her to be unable to selflessly look at the whole disaster.

In the same way, the focus of the old butler of Blois must have always been on the head of the family, the young lady and the family, and the rebellion alliance was only a tool at most on his side.

In addition to the two of them, the other members of the alliance are naturally not to mention. Just like the Brandt family, almost the vast majority of them only care about sweeping the snow in front of their doors.

An excessively large gap in combat strength will make people choose to give up, and there are countless examples of flying separately when a catastrophe comes.

Now that the disaster in Denmark has struck, Hermione, who is the most active and selfless among the leaders of the alliance, is temporarily absent, and almost everyone else has chosen to take a step back.

Yes, in the face of the Danish incident, a step back would certainly make more room for resistance. But what about when the plague spreads further from Denmark? Can everyone really prepare enough to resist each other's strength?

This war is not a game of wizard chess sitting on both sides of the chessboard, even if it is an all-round disadvantage, it is impossible to admit defeat and surrender and start all over again. If you don't work hard, you will only end up dying more ugly.

It's a pity that there are many people who understand this, but there are not many people who can really fight with their lives.

Looking at the young lady of the Brandt family who was sitting there in a bit of a daze, Willie waited for a while, but finally seemed to blink her eyes a little abruptly and said:

"Oh...... Are you scared? Well, it doesn't matter, we're not afraid of the Blois! ”

After saying that, I saw her stand up decisively, beckoned to the old butler on the side, and said:

"Let's go! We need to inform Father! Also, aren't there a lot of people from our family at Camp Granger? There's Hermione and them on the UK side, so ...... It's time to transfer to Denmark. ”
