HP Demon's Silence
Chapter 23 Forgive
Draco sat in front of the large fireplace in the common room and meditated for a while. He felt that he should solve the matter of Peter Pettigrew as soon as possible, but considering that the action during the day was too eye-catching, he had to put this idea aside for the time being.Pansy and Blaise are out, Vincent and Gregory are too dull, Alexandra is off-putting...
Thinking of this, he looked up and looked around, but there was no sign of Alexandra. He couldn't help raising his mouth slightly, a thoughtful gleam flashed in his eyes, and then took out the double-sided mirror: "Sanda? My dear, are you here?" where?"
The chestnut-haired girl soon appeared in the mirror, sitting at a desk with a stack of ink-printed paper in her hand.
"Oh, Draco, good morning, I'm in the dorm." She smiled slightly, looking not in good spirits.
"Shanda, you look listless, have you forgotten that today is the day to go to Hogsmeade?"
"Sorry, my father sent another batch of materials. He wrote a special letter this morning, urging me not to forget my promise to him—that is the exchange condition for entering Hogwarts that I mentioned to you, so I I don't think I have time to spend with you this weekend."
Draco raised his eyebrows immediately: "Shanda, your unfamiliar tone is really annoying. Have you forgotten that from this school year onwards, we have completed all the learning tasks assigned to you by Uncle Alexander together? This time Why did you exclude me?"
Alexandra put down the materials in her hand, picked up the mirror, and said with a smile: "I am so touched, Draco, you are willing to give up the opportunity to study with me at Hogsmeade! But today I have to deal with Things are a little different from the past, it involves some non-public affairs of the family..."
"You mean, even I can't believe it?" Draco interrupted her immediately, his tone rising, showing displeasure, "I have to say, your prudence is commendable. The Malfoy family The heir would steal his girlfriend's family secrets in exchange for some pocket money from the informant—you've even considered the possibility of that, haven't you?"
Alexandra covered her lips with a smile and said, "Dear Draco, you are so cute when you are angry. Actually, what I want to say is that because it involves non-public affairs of the family, I can't take them to Libraries or any public place where there is a risk of surveillance, so we don’t have a suitable place to meet.”
Draco's eyes flashed, he looked around, leaned forward, and said in a low voice: "If this is what you are worried about, then we might as well set the date in my dormitory, I guarantee that there will never be a second person there. Three eyes."
The platinum boy showed an ambiguous smile: "Didn't you feel unhappy because I refused your visit the night before yesterday? Now is a good time to clear up this misunderstanding..."
"Oh, you know that I wasn't angry about it that time!" Alexandra's blue pupils flashed a trace of anger, and she protested in a low voice: "Actually, I quite agree with your point of view— —we're too young!"
Draco sneered in his heart: "Hmph, is that so, but as far as I know, in a sense, the two of us are not young anymore..."
But he maintained an ambiguous expression on the surface and raised his eyebrows: "Oh, of course, I will keep this in mind. When will you come over?" He raised his hand and looked at his watch, "Merlin, now leave the boy There are still three full hours until the dormitory is lifted!"
Alexandra suggested: "Then see you in three hours? We can have lunch first..."
Draco shook his head and showed a smirk: "Shanda, you have to know that rules are often meant to be broken. Prefect Sayy is not here, so what else to worry about? You come out now, I will take you in secretly .”
***
No matter how the Slytherins feel about the fact that their prefects and transfer students go to Hogsmeade together, Sayy doesn't care anyway, and Ovelia doesn't care at all—provided she doesn't realize it, of course. What kind of illusion would this bring to Draco.She was very nervous at the moment. Before that, she never dreamed that she would have the opportunity to apologize and explain to him.
But Ovelia understands very well that the damage she caused can never be repaired, because time cannot be easily reversed, and the past cannot be changed at will, so all she can control is the future.She is willing to do everything in her power to get his forgiveness.
They rowed across the lake in silence all the way: Sai's eyes were lightly closed, and he kept his eyes closed all the time, and Ovelia didn't dare to disturb him, so she could only stare at him helplessly while paddling hard.
The boat stopped lightly and docked on the shore.Seeing that Sai still didn't seem to get up, Ovelia couldn't help but asked, "Hmm...Prefect Sai, do you want me to carry you down?"
Sai snorted lightly, and finally opened his eyes. If this sentence came from someone else, it might be ironic, but he knew Ovelia too well. She asked this, which meant that she really planned to do this, and he Neither wanted to be on the front page of Blaise's gossip school magazine.
The two got off the boat one after another, walked towards Hogsmeade along the path, and seeing the small buildings in the distance, Ovelia let out a 'huh' and said, "I didn't expect this place to become a village. It was just an open space! I remember right, Salazar?" She said this sentence according to her feeling, and suddenly felt that she was a genius, and she had found such a natural opening line.
The moment he heard that address, Sai's gaze suddenly turned to the black-haired girl, then narrowed his eyes faintly, and finally did not utter a word to refute.No one has called him that way for 15 years. The name Salazar sounds strange at this moment.
Although his reaction wasn't good, it wasn't bad either. Ovelia couldn't help but let go a little, and said with a smile, "Salazar, I still like your dark green eyes." Ah, although the gray one is also very beautiful, it is a pity that no one will recognize us as brother and sister anymore."
Salazar was taken aback for a moment, and finally turned his gaze to Ovelia, and asked, "Can you distinguish colors now?"
The black-haired girl shook her head: "It still doesn't work! But I asked Faterina specifically, and she told me. By the way, do you know that she is Rosamia's daughter? Well... Rosamia is I only recently found out that the elf princess who was the chairman of the student union of Lachesis College is actually my admirer!"
"Fatalina? Are you talking about that Falin Kedolis? I vaguely noticed that the magic in her body works differently from ordinary people. It turns out that she is an elf... I don't know her, Rosamia graduated She didn't exist at the time, and then..." Salazar paused for a moment before saying calmly, "I died later."
His tone was so flat, as if he was stating something that had nothing to do with him, but the pain hidden behind these words was unimaginable to ordinary people, and Ovelia's blue eyes revealed deep sorrow And guilt, but only for a moment, she blinked and hid everything deep in her pupils, lowered her head, and said seriously: "Salazar, I'm sorry."
At this time, they had arrived at the entrance of Hogsmeade village.The black-haired boy stopped in his tracks. Today's weather was exceptionally clear. He raised his head slightly. The sun shone on that handsome young face, and it seemed to become brighter.
He said without fluctuation: "Why did you apologize to me, because you killed me by mistake? If so, there is no need. I have tried my best. Losing on the battlefield is equivalent to death. I have never understood this truth Forget. You once saved my life from the gorefiend, so it should be returned to you, so what?"
Ovelia raised her head to look at him, and thought with a wry smile: "If you didn't blame me, why would you reject me thousands of miles away with that alienated attitude?"
She said: "Killing him is just my job, but accidentally saving you, I have already received the richest reward, that is your sincere friendship, that is the first precious wealth in my life, remember? It was you who gave me the name Ovelia Lachesis, which represents purity and hope (in ancient magic), and changed the reason for my existence. So you never owe me anything, but I..."
Salazar raised his hand to interrupt her. He looked back at her, the silver-gray ice in his eyes seemed to be melted by the sunlight, and countless complex emotions surged in him. His expression and tone remained calm, but a certain An invisible mask fell from his face, revealing the least known corners of his heart.
"At the moment of death, I thought a lot, and the most regretful thing was that I couldn't say 'I forgive you' to Godric, and I couldn't say 'I'm sorry' to Rowena; The soul reincarnation technique that I devoted half my life to study has never been followed. What worries Helga the most is how much impact she will suffer when she witnesses me being killed by you, and you...
You have become the second blood demon, and even I can't bring back your sanity, so one day, the Holy See in your mouth will send someone to execute you, maybe the world will cheer for this, but as your friend, I Think that's cruel and inhumane.Do you believe?I was really able to think about so many things in an instant, and my strong obsession triggered my potential, which made me break through the bottleneck of soul reincarnation at the last moment. Unfortunately, I was not mature enough, and I lost my way in the void of time and space. When I came here, everything changed...
So you are right, Ovelia, I once hated you so much, and though my reason and pride made me blame myself for my downfall, my feelings refused to forgive you precisely because we were friends and you Take 1000 years of time from me! "
"You said you hated me very much at one time, um, that's what it should be... Then, what about now?" Ovelia asked uncertainly.
Salazar stared at her with deep eyes, and slowly said: "When I saw you for the first time that night, I had already forgiven you. If it wasn't like that, why would I appear here with you?"
Olivia's breathing was stagnant, she hadn't shed tears for a long time, but at this moment, there was water in her eyes, and he had forgiven her!But she hadn't even given any explanation, hadn't told any truth.
"...Why?" She asked confusedly.
Salazar raised his hand and gently brushed her hairline. Their eyes spanned a long time, and finally they met again frankly.After a long time, he said lightly: "Because you have turned back into Ovelia Lachesis! Back then, the Gorefiend chose to die in order to get rid of the pain. Not only have you lived until now, but you have also recovered yourself. Although I don't know how you did it, but I'm sure you've paid dearly for it..."
Ovelia was taken aback for a moment, and a long-buried image flashed in her mind. She felt a pain in her heart, and lowered her eyes and replied: "Maybe!"
Salazar rubbed her head and finally said, "And you're the only friend Salazar Slytherin has left."
Olivia stared blankly at him, the light in her eyes getting brighter and brighter, then she walked up to him, gave him a long-lost hug from friends, and said softly: "No, Salazar, I'm not your only one The only remaining friend! Let me tell you a secret, Helga is still alive..."
Under a certain big tree tens of meters away, he didn't want to participate in the discussion with his female companions about Professor Flitwick's extensive knowledge of spells, but Blaise, who came out of the Three Broomsticks bar to breathe, was fortunate to witness the process and result of the incident with his own eyes. , especially the last scene: the black-haired girl suddenly threw herself into the arms of his respected Prefect Bartholomew, and was not pushed away!
The brown-skinned teenager opened his mouth halfway, completely stunned.
The author has something to say: In the middle of the semester, all kinds of things have increased, and I will not be able to update it daily, but I will try my best
sorry...
Thinking of this, he looked up and looked around, but there was no sign of Alexandra. He couldn't help raising his mouth slightly, a thoughtful gleam flashed in his eyes, and then took out the double-sided mirror: "Sanda? My dear, are you here?" where?"
The chestnut-haired girl soon appeared in the mirror, sitting at a desk with a stack of ink-printed paper in her hand.
