Hogwarts Archmage

A knife was gently pressed against Max's throat.

Layers of goosebumps began to spread out from where the tip of the knife touched.

"You...you must be careful..." she said to Hermione a little uneasily.

Hermione replied a little impatiently: "You've said it a hundred times, don't worry."

Max wanted to say something else, but Hermione plunged the tip of the knife directly into her neck.

The neck had the most blood vessels, and a column of blood spurted out like a high-pressure water gun. However, it was still the same as that day, and it gathered into a ball not far away.

Hermione gently cut her neck open in half, searched carefully for a while, and finally found a nerve that did not belong to Max, and pinched it with her fingers and pulled it out.

Max could feel the parasite in his heart trembling constantly. It was afraid of his mother.

"Okay, this won't be a problem, but... you still have to be careful, this guy is not that simple."

While she was talking, Hermione had already put away the sharp knife, and after shaking it with her fingers, the blood ball went back into her body, and the knife edge healed quickly, leaving no trace.

Max touched his neck: "So...so that your...your child won't be naughty?"

She carefully considered her words.

"How is that possible? It's just temporary. If you feel uncomfortable again next time, remember to contact me quickly - you are no longer human and will not get sick."

Max nodded vigorously.

Hermione continued: "One more thing, I am not Margaery or Esther. There is no need for you to be so afraid of me. Sometimes I feel that you and I are actually the same."

"You must be kidding..."

Hermione shrugged and didn't ask her forcefully. Instead, she turned her head and waved her hand: "I have to go back. If you have anything, remember to contact me... don't listen to that guy's sweet talk. He obviously doesn't look like me."

Max nodded vigorously, and after Hermione finished speaking, she took a step directly, and took another step to reach the black tea house.

"How's it going? Is it done?" Margery asked with interest.

Hermione shook her head: "Something went wrong. I'm afraid your previous experience won't work anymore."

"What do you mean?"

"This is the real world, not a dream, so it develops... somewhat haphazardly and unpredictably."

Before Margaery could ask, Hermione said directly: "I observed it a little and found that it can completely separate from the maternal environment... and the most important thing is that it seems to be changing into another form."

"Wait a minute..." Margery frowned: "You said it can completely separate from the maternal environment? How is that possible? It is essentially just a fertilized egg now. It also had blood when Max took it out that day. Connected.”

"But this is the reality. Its secrets have been exposed. Its organization now has its own system, including respiration, nutrient theft, excretion... everything."

"steal?"

"Yes, it can only steal nutrients that have been processed, but it is not impossible to develop into something that can be directly ingested one day in the future. It changes too fast."

Margaery sat on the sofa and began to think about something. After a long time, she said: "In other words, this guy can directly become a complete individual without pregnancy, right?"

"Is such that."

She let out a long breath and said with some emotion: "Maybe this is the charm of the real world...In dreams, everything that goes beyond common sense is actually within the rules, but the real world will not reason with you..."

Hermione looked at her with some confusion and said, "Why do I feel like you are so happy?"

"Of course I'm happy..." Margery sat up straight and said with a smile: "Do you know how boring it would be if you knew everything? Even the human heart that was once the only thing that could be used as fun can now be easily seen through, boring And boring…”

Hermione felt that there might be something wrong with the guy in front of her.

"Do you really find it interesting? Everything is out of control..."

"Hermione, do you know that there is a way of working in factories in the Muggle world called assembly lines?"

"know."

"Originally, my life was like a female worker standing next to the assembly line. I know what life is like at this moment, life at the next moment, and life forever in the future... Until now... everything has changed."

Margaery stood up and narrowed her big eyes, leaving only a slit: "Do you know how happy I am? I can have fun... and even go out to participate in one interesting game after another... How fun."

Hermione saw a little light through the slits of her eyes. Those eyes that seemed to be eternally calm were full of danger and excitement at this moment.

She couldn't help but murmured: "You crazy person..."

"No, no, no...I am not a madman, you are the madmen...the paranoid ones who want to protect, the stubborn ones who want to win...Hermione, you are the madmen, I am just a boring guy looking for fun, nothing more. "

The smile on her face slowly faded, and her crescent-shaped eyes slowly returned to their original calm appearance. She looked at Hermione and said, "I've let your world go, but the guy at the bottom of the sea needs to be dealt with by yourselves... After this is over, no matter what happens in the end, I will change New York City back to its original state..."

Hermione was silent for a while: "Although I probably know the reason, I still... thank you."

"Why should you thank me? It started with me, I just ended it."

"A dangerous creature that no one can control passed by us and caused only a small ripple, which is worthy of gratitude."

Margery shook her head: "You are not as good as Esther."

"What's wrong with Esther?"

"She was going to kill me, and she knew I knew she was going to kill me."

Hermione frowned: "How is that possible?"

"What's impossible? She plans to kill you."

"?"

"Of course, you gave her the right to reproduce and the opportunity to give birth to your eldest son, so she shouldn't do anything to you now..."

Hermione curled her lips: "Are you planning to sow discord again?"

Margery blinked twice: "Maybe, but I have to say, this is really useful. You have already begun to doubt her, haven't you? Because you know that with her character, she can do such a thing."

"Marne will not stand idly by."

"Marn may not even know. He will only know that you traveled to another world... This is just a little guess on my part. There may be other reasons. Esther can always find an excuse."
