"Welcome to Hogwarts!"

When the old wizard in the flame-like red robe welcomed them with open arms and walked towards the basement, the dim candlelight reflected the rippling lake water outside the window, and unknown creatures cast huge shadows on the wall.Except for the headmaster who was still energetic and enthusiastic in the middle of the night, everyone looked tired and looked forward to after running around all day.

"There are many secret passages and ghosts in the castle, you'd better follow me closely." Dumbledore said, "In order to keep the secrets that should not be discovered by others, we had to choose a remote room for the experiment. In addition, I will use magic to make extra insurance to ensure safety, and in this process, you can only brew the potion by yourself—but apart from the difficulty in collecting the materials, there is actually nothing complicated in the specific operation steps."

"We will be careful enough." Li Xiang replied.

They walked through the winding and narrow corridors of Hogwarts for nearly 10 minutes before arriving at their destination, which is enough to prove the vast building area of ​​the school.It is now mid-October in London, which is the rainy season.The night is dark and cloudy, the stars and the moon are dark, but no matter what the outside weather is, the bottom of the black lake at Hogwarts is indeed dark and humid all the year round, only occasionally you can hear the wind blowing up the lake and beating the windows, as well as rumbling thunder.

"The cauldron is ready." Dumbledore's face glowed red under the candlelight, and he briefly explained, "I will introduce the basic operations for you, and then arrange magic around. I must concentrate, otherwise anyone Any accident may trigger the defense alarm of Hogwarts. However, individual materials are not easy to move, and only the school can guarantee that they will not be discovered by Voldemort and others, so we have no choice when the incident happens suddenly."

"It's okay," Lixiang assured, "Merlin will take care of everything."

This name appeased Mr. Principal, who obviously had extraordinary trust in Heroic Spirit.But Merlin didn't believe in himself. After Dumbledore turned around to do the preparations, he mouthed to the Master who had assured him: "I can really bite my tongue when I cast spells—"

Li Xiang was unmoved, and whispered, "Why don't you bite your tongue when you talk? Who do you think you are, King George VI?"

Half Nightmare: "...Who is that? Wait, I'm serious! In this case, Holmes is more useful than me!"

"Then you come and read to me," Lixiang said, "Howmuchcaramelcanacannycanonballcraminacamelifacannycanonballcancramcaramelinacamel"

"Hey! Alright alright, Howmuchcaramelcanacannycannononono...hiss it hurts I bit my cheek."

Li Xiang: "...Didn't you really do it on purpose? You taught King Arthur not to have a big tongue, it's simply the favor of the universe."

The consequence of the internal strife is that the players who have not had time to start the battle -1.

"Come on, come on, I saw Roman waving to me in another world!" Li Xiang hurriedly encouraged everyone as the leader, Holmes came up as the second in command to take over Merlin's job, and the legendary legendary mage was reduced to squatting in the corner trying to get close photosynthesis by candlelight.Dumbledore caught a glimpse of this scene in his busy schedule, and asked blankly, "What happened?"

"We want to give young people opportunities to exercise." Merlin said solemnly.

The old wizard suddenly realized and was in awe: such an important occasion can be used to train younger generations, as expected of Master Merlin, he has a broad mind and a long-term vision!

"The fan filter is as thick as the walls of Hogwarts Castle by my eyes." Holmes said while stirring the juice in the huge cauldron in front of him clockwise according to the instructions.Li Xiang cut the material with a knife beside him, and agreed after hearing the words: "I think I can see this too, and I feel that my observation skills have improved significantly after staying with Merlin for a long time."

"Isn't this because there are too many flaws in him?" Holmes ruthlessly broke her beautiful imagination.

Merlin: "..."

one hour later.

"After stuffing this weird creature in my hand into the pot, we can add the last three key items." Li Xiang held a sticky tentacle full of suckers, and under Holmes' command He threw it into the cauldron with a look of disgust.Now the liquid inside has turned into a strange fluorescent green color, combined with the dark basement to create a full range of horror movies, it can be dragged out to shoot a vampire movie in a second.

"Let me check again. Well," Heroic Spirit flipped through the booklet in his hand several times, "From the characteristics of the finished product, we should have done a perfect job so far. The next thing that needs to be added is the father's unintentional donation. out of the bone."

Merlin raised his hand high: "I'll do it!" He stood up on his knees and took out a small piece of white finger bone from his pocket, "I've done magic disinfection, and now it looks very healthy, environmentally friendly, green and pollution-free. "

"It looks like chicken feet that have been eaten." Li Xiang commented, "Is David still alive?"

"Live a happy life, much more comfortable than his son."

"That's good." Li Xiang felt relieved, and stopped paying too much attention to the unruly King David of Israel who loved money, wives, and fishing all his life.

"The servant's meat is next."

Merlin reverently held up a piece of devil's heart and threw it into the cauldron: "This is the most precious treasure of our Chaldeans. My sincere condolences to Barbatos."

"..."

"The last one is...the blood of the enemy."

"Actually, I'm not quite sure if this can be regarded as an enemy." The half-dream demon's expression was very delicate, "After all, all the enemies of Solomon recorded in history have been turned into mud, and even he himself may not be able to find a complete corpse. In the process of our saving humanity, the only one who can be listed as an "enemy" is Gaetia, but he was Solomon's subject before him, and the reason for destroying humanity does not directly conflict with Solomon. From the two Judging from the result of not being able to survive at the same time, there is no problem with the determination of 'enemies'. However, emotionally speaking, I doubt whether they really had the emotion of 'hate' before."

Li Xiang was silent for a moment, and said, "Why did you say such a thing a second before our strategic victory? It made me feel a little flustered."

"I just gave you a vaccination." Merlin paused and comforted, "But at least we can be sure that Roman will still be alive after 11 years, so no matter what the result is this time, don't get too excited."

"I understand." Li Xiang whispered, "We are lucky enough to be able to stand here and seek a solution."

"That's good." Merlin showed a small smile, stepped forward to open the pitch-black bottle in his hand, and poured the liquid inside into the crucible without leaking.

Although he said that he was very optimistic about finding another way if the plan was not successful, but when Lixiang watched the fog in the basement transpiring and circling up to cover people's eyes, the air was filled with the smell of damp earth and magic. The strong irritating smell of the medicine, as if a figure stood up from the white mist and opened her eyes to look in the direction of Lixiang - she still held her breath involuntarily and stepped forward.

"……Did you make it?"

"...I don't know." Lixiang raised her head in confusion.The mist gradually dissipated, and a man with dark brown skin appeared naked in the cauldron as tall as her. His lower body was submerged in water, and his upper body was covered with dark red and black tattoos.His white hair was disheveled on his well-structured back, and the liquid of the potion was still dripping down, while those golden eyes were fixed on the tiny hairs of the human in front of him.

"Lixiang?" The man opened his mouth and said the words mechanically, as if someone who had been asleep for a long time just spoke, with a chaotic hoarseness.

This time should have been full of excitement and joy of success.

But Lixiang felt a great panic for some reason, and she took two steps forward, holding the edge of the pot with her hand, and raised her head to stare carefully at the man's eyebrows and eyes.Of course it was a familiar face, but the expression on it was stiff and sad, as if someone who couldn't express their love smoothly was forced to watch a grand tragedy, and couldn't help showing a slightly weird sadness.

"Lixiang." The man named Solomon called out again.His expression moved slightly, and the sadness became more intense, and the weirdness became more obvious.Lixiang followed with a bad premonition, but he didn't know where this sense of impending distress came from, so he could only stand on tiptoe in vain and reach out, holding the other's wet hand with human warmth: "Solomon! " she shouted loudly, she didn't even know if the person in front of her was the right one, "Roman!"

The man who had just crawled out of hell, who was held by her, had blank eyes, moved away from Lixiang, and didn't know where he landed.He was silent for a long time before bending down, looked at Li Xiang and said, "I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry, Lixiang."

In the next second, the girl's tightly gripped hand was forcibly broken free, even leaving a dark red mark on the newborn skin because of her eagerness.Lixiang supported the surrounding decorations and wanted to rush up to stop him, but he could only splash a few drops of potion by mistake, making his whole body in a mess.

"Roman!"

Unmoved, Solomon raised his hands and lowered his head to look at it, as if he was looking at a useful knife or a shiny dagger, but then he inserted his five fingers deep into his heart with no expression and indifference.The blood gushed down immediately, and fell into the crucible along the knuckles of the fingers, and the rest poured down like a torrential rain on Li Xiang who was standing next to him.

"...!"

Lixiang's pupils shrank like pinpoints, and she even forgot to breathe. Through the red blood curtain, she watched the man's hand inserted into his chest and pulled it out without hesitation—she seemed to hear the sound of the candle being extinguished, Or witness the star falling, the sun never rising, the world falling into eternal darkness, and the crisp sound of bones breaking is a never-ending symphony.

"Crack-knock-"

Then there was the deafening heartbeat, persistent and firm: "Bang, bang, bang."

"...No." Li Xiang said.

She felt like screaming, but it was actually a feeble plea that was less than normal conversation: "Stop it, Roman."

The white-haired man brushed away the hair that had been thrown in front of him due to excessive movements, and Li Xiang took the opportunity to grab a strand of hair, as if grabbing a life-saving straw: "Romani Archman! Solomon! Doctor! Hurry up!" Click to stop!"

Solomon paused.He tilted his head to look at the little girl whose face was mixed with blood and sweat, but whose eyes suddenly lit up with hope because of this small pause. For a moment, she almost wanted to let go of her hand and shed tears, but The pain in his chest was like a burning fire, reminding him all the time: Solomon, you cannot live in this world.

Like a curse.

"I'm sorry." He subconsciously repeated this sentence again and again, like a repeater, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry, Lixiang."

People live in the world, relying on the fine and complex emotional network with others.

If you are alone, aimless, and have no one to rely on, then even if you are still breathing, you are already lying in your grave.

And in this world, maybe the only person who thinks about this human being named "Romani Achiman" is Fujimaru Tachika.

So, "I'm sorry. Lixiang."

A person lives because of another person, but has to choose to throw himself into the world of the dead in front of the other person again.To die for a lifetime, compared to the time to say goodbye and let go of the world, is it more brave to choose to stay and open your eyes to remember all this, tossing and turning day and night without forgetting?

He didn't know, because he never had the opportunity, and he didn't want to be able to witness the departure of others.Whether it is cowardice or sacrifice, human beings are always willing to see the one they love live, even if the price is to pay everything they have.

"I'm sorry...and, thank you, Lixiang."
