Hogwarts in the shadows

Following the guidance of the shadow of the Book of the World, Hephesus also came to the front of the black cylindrical house.

His eyes fell on the girl who was emitting a colorful halo all over her body.

A halo swirled around her, as gorgeous as a rainbow, yet with a hint of sacredness and remoteness.

The girl's face gradually became clear, and Hephis recognized her as Luna Lovegood.

As Hephes approached, the halo on Luna's body receded like the tide, until the last ray of light disappeared.

She slowly opened her eyes, and the mysterious nine-pointed star in her eyes flashed with dazzling light. The surrounding starlight seemed to have merged into a brilliant galaxy, which made people intoxicated.

"Hello, Hephes Dam." Luna's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a bright smile.

That smile carried a kind of innocence that transcended the world, as if it could wash away all the dust and troubles in the world.

Hephis was stunned by what he saw, but he quickly recovered.

He looked at Luna with a complicated expression, "Should I call you Luna, or the Heart of the World?"

"Call me Luna," her voice was as clear as the sound of spring water, with a purity and ethereality that did not belong to this world.

"Luna, I like this name very much."

The shadow of the Book of the World in Hephes's hand began to struggle violently, eager to return to its master.

Hephis subconsciously wanted to let go, but he reacted instantly, and the power of shadow quickly suppressed it and put it away.

Luna seemed not to notice Hephis's little action.

She walked lightly in the garden barefoot.

She said to herself: "According to the original course of the world, I should have woken up in more than a hundred years."

She slowly squatted down and her fair little hand gently touched a flower bud that was about to bloom.

The flower seemed to feel her warmth and bloomed instantly, showing its most beautiful posture.

Luna gently stroked the petals with her small hands, "But your arrival has accelerated the process of the whole world and made me wake up early."

Hephis didn't say anything, he just looked at Luna in front of him quietly.

The scene before him was as beautiful as a dream, but an inexplicable chill surged in his heart.

Luna still gently stroked the petals with her small hands, but the flower quickly withered under her touch.

"Tell me, what should I do to you?"

"Destroy me as a variable and bring the world back on track." Hephis said lightly as he watched her actions.

Luna shook her head gently, a trace of confusion in her eyes, "Actually, I don't know either."

She stood up slowly and looked at Hephis calmly.

“Thousands of years ago, I also woke up, and at that time there was a wizard who did something similar to you.

He intends to wipe out all the ordinary people in the world.

Although I knew his plan could not succeed, I still tried to stop him and even destroyed him completely."

"Salazar Slytherin?" Hephaestus murmured in a low voice.

Of the Big Four, the only one whose cause of death he didn't know was Slytherin.

And Slytherin did stop killing by killing back then.

"You really know a lot of secrets." A rare look of confusion flashed across Luna's face.

There was a hint of heaviness in her voice, "However, as time went by, I began to reflect on whether I should have intervened at the time."

"Why?" Hephis was puzzled.

Luna just shook her head slightly without giving any explanation.

"So you are now hesitating whether you should kill me, fearing that you will make the same mistake again?"

Hephis did not continue to ask questions, but directly pointed out the contradiction in Luna's heart.

"Yes." Luna's eyes sparkled like stars, and she nodded seriously.

Hephis suddenly laughed, and his laugh was unusually happy.

"Why are you laughing?" Luna tilted her head curiously.

There was confusion in her eyes. "Do you think my idea is childish?"

She recalled the scene when Slytherin was eliminated.

Was the last thing Slytherin said to her before he disappeared.

"I never thought that the Heart of the World would be so naive."

And the course of history seems to prove this.

Her interference didn't just stifle the wizard's development.

There were even more wars between ordinary people, so the number of deaths was far greater than that killed by Slytherins.

Hephis's laughter gradually stopped, but he still had a smile on his face, "Childish? Maybe."

"Then what do you mean by laughing?" Luna asked.

"Are you so sure that you can kill me?"

Hephes moved his neck, and there was a crackling sound between the joints.

His magic power has reached the limit of this world and can no longer grow further.

His shadow power has also been fully awakened long ago.

Although it is not enough to cover the entire planet, it is easily enough to cover one-tenth of its area.

And as his physical fitness improves, the shadow's coverage continues to expand.

Although the aura on his body is relatively weak, it is only relative to the level of his magic power.

Judging from his temperament alone, he is at least equivalent to ten Feng Baobaos.

Not to mention the physical fitness, which is more than a hundred times that of an ordinary adult male.

He didn't believe that with so many BUFFs stacked together, he wouldn't even be able to fight against the Heart of the World.

When Luna heard this, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, outlining a soft and sincere smile.

It is like the most inconspicuous star in the night sky, but it illuminates the surrounding darkness silently.

"Thank you for making this decision for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, everything around him seemed to be distorted by some mysterious force, and the scene changed rapidly.

The original world gradually disappeared, replaced by a space full of mystery.

There is no sky or earth here, only light and darkness interweaving into a series of bizarre pictures.

"This is where I usually sleep, a corner forgotten by the stars."

The strange jewelry on Luna disappeared one after another.

She changed into a flawless white long dress, the hem of which fluttered gently.

Her hair also became longer, cascading down to her ankles, shining with a silvery white light, making it even more beautiful.

Hephis punched the space lightly, but found that the mirror space did not appear.

It’s not that the mirror space cannot appear, but that the space here is very stable.

Even if he wanted to destroy it, he would need to use all his strength.

He withdrew his hand. "Is this the battlefield you chose? It is indeed a good one."

"Hephis Dam, are you really going to fight me?"

Luna's voice echoed in the space, ethereal and majestic.

"I don't want to have a sword hanging over my head all the time."

Hephaestus' emerald eyes seemed to be burning with flames at this moment, and his fighting spirit was fully revealed.
