In the auditorium on the first floor, Xifa was eating breakfast listlessly.
I saw him cut a piece of steak with a knife and fork in a stiff manner and put it into his mouth. A bit of sauce hung on the corner of his mouth unpreparedly.
"Why are you so careless?"
Luna, who was sitting next to Xifa, noticed this scene.
She turned the small plate on one side into a lace handkerchief and used it to gently carry away the drop of sauce.
"He gave me a lot of inspiration for using magic last night, but now I'm inevitably a little short of energy. By the way, Elise. Let's go to the Forbidden Forest later, and you can help me design the magic pattern structure of these magics."
Kassandra interrupted to explain for Sifer, then she touched Elise with her elbow and asked her to help her.
"Okay!" Elise happily agreed without any hesitation. She was also curious about what kind of magic moves Xifa designed for Cassandra.
"Then you go to the Forbidden Forest. Xifa, you can help me brew the potion this morning."
Luna said calmly.
"Can he do it in this state?"
Elise covered her mouth and chuckled, expressing doubt.
"Just give him a dose of tonic." Luna snorted coldly, indicating that she was determined to let Xifa stay with her all morning.
Elise could only give Xifa a wish-for-blessing expression.
After listening to this conversation, Xifa couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart.
Fortunately, I just don't have high energy, but my magic power is still sufficient.
It is estimated that the potion brewed by Luna requires a lot of magic power to be mixed, and she is just a tool that provides 'fuel'.
Waiting for Xifa to finish breakfast leisurely.
Taking advantage of the effect of Elise's butt move, Luna and Cassandra secretly exchanged glances.
"Then let's go to the Forbidden Forest first. See you at noon~"
In the lobby on the first floor, Cassandra waved goodbye to Xifa, then she held hands with Elise and gradually disappeared outside the door.
"Don't look at it, we have to hurry up." Luna pulled Xifa, who was stunned, and said slightly anxiously.
"In such a hurry?" Xifa was surprised. In the past, when Luna brewed potions, she was nervous because the raw materials were hard to come by. This was the first time she was in a hurry.
"Of course, you only need to take a look at this potion and you will wake up instantly." Luna also realized that she was excited.
So she calmed down and answered Xifa like this.
Xifa understood that it was to help him wake up so that he could work better.
In fact, I just overused my brain and felt a little dizzy. I estimate that after this morning, I will regain a lot of energy.
Tsk...squeeze and beat the workers.
What followed was silence until...Professor Dumbledore's office?!
Xifa half-closed his eyes and let Luna pull him along mechanically.
However, after a while, Luna stopped.
So fast? Xifa felt something was wrong. He opened his eyes slightly, but he didn't expect Luna to bring him to the Transfiguration Office.
"come on in!"
Luna took out Fox's tail feathers and drew a beautiful arc in the air. Then the door of the office was opened. Seeing that Xifa was still at the door, dazed, Luna looked around in the corridor and saw that no one was still there.
, and shouted softly.
Bang——
After being pulled into the room by Luna, Xifa quickly became more awake as the door closed behind her.
"Professor Dumbledore isn't here?"
Looking around, there was no place for Dumbledore to hide in the office, making Xifa feel even more uneasy.
"Xifa, here you go."
Turning around, Xifa was surprised to find that Luna had taken off the compass hanging from her neck, stretched out her hand and handed it to herself.
He was still a little confused, but that didn't stop Xifa from taking what Luna handed him.
Then, Luna opened her arms without saying a word.
Let yourself hold...no, let yourself check her out!
It’s true, this ‘magic potion’ really works, and Xifa wakes up instantly.
He activated the compass with a solemn expression, tried his best to build the most perfect detection circle, and carefully inspected Luna from head to toe several times.
"No problem, what's wrong?"
Xifa also checked himself by the way, and there was nothing abnormal.
He breathed a sigh of relief and then dispersed the magic circle. While hanging the compass back on Luna's neck, he asked.
"Xifa, Cassandra and I discovered something big! Elise is traveling at night!"
Luna breathed a sigh of relief visibly, then threw herself into Xifa's arms and said with a slight cry.
"Walking at night? What's all the fuss about? I also go out at night every day? You won't say that she has..." At first, Xifa didn't care, but Luna's behavior made him think more.
"No! It's not what you think!" Before Xifa could finish speaking, Luna raised her head and interrupted him, "Elise's state seems to have changed. She also seems to have been cast by the Imperius Curse.
manipulate."
Luna's eyes were red, and there was fear and anxiety under her pupils. She looked directly at herself stubbornly, showing that she was not joking.
Xifa said nothing, lowered his head and pressed his forehead against hers.
The palace of thought is instantly connected.
Luna's memory was shared with Xifa last night.
At first, Luna fell asleep, but never fell asleep.
Her soul fell asleep, but her senses, under the secret skills taught to her by Cassandra, were still fighting on the front line.
Luna closed her eyes at first, and she didn't know what was happening outside. However, Xifa guessed that Elise must be observing whether Luna was really asleep.
Immediately afterwards, a rustling sound sounded. Because it was a familiar breath, Luna didn't pay attention to it and continued to sleep.
And her ears carefully and responsibly recorded this sound in her brain.
Dong Dong——
The footsteps gradually walked towards the door of the room.
At the same time, Luna's eyelids opened quietly, and she recorded Elise walking towards the door carelessly, under the moonlight, with her back to her.
That is definitely the most common gait for adult men, and Elise will never walk like this!
call--
In this world, Xifa suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked at Luna in astonishment, wondering whether he was stimulated by this memory fragment or shocked by Cassandra and Luna's decision to investigate privately.
"When did you find out?" After a long time, Xifa recovered his mind.
"Cassandra found it. I never noticed it...I was so scared..."
Luna remembered that every time she lived with Elise, Elise might behave like this every night.
In front of Xifa, she finally let go of her strength and cried wildly.
"It's a bit unbelievable..." Xifa murmured softly.
"I am sure that there is nothing unusual about Elise when she is around me."
After Luna vented her emotions a lot and her tears stopped flowing, Xifa spoke.
"Then what do you mean..." Luna rubbed her eyes and muttered softly.
Xifa wiped away the tears she hadn't noticed and continued.
"I want to take a look for myself. It's not that I don't trust you. What if someone cast a high-level confusion spell on you?"
"Magic will always leave traces." What Luna meant by this was that it was impossible for magic to work on her without leaving any trace.
Especially since Xifa just inspected it seriously.
"Magic may not necessarily be acting on you, it may be illusion, blinding... In short, it is acting on the outside world, and your senses personally receive the information. Can you understand what I mean?"
