"Harry, you eat your own ice cream here first, and I'll be back in a moment—no, you'd better go to Gringotts, it's safer there."

Harry looked at Lily in bewilderment.

As soon as he found him, before he could speak, Lily pushed him towards Gringotts.

"What happened?" Harry asked puzzled.

"I saw a person just now." Lily frowned and said, "That person is very familiar. I have a feeling, a very vague feeling—in fact, I can't tell clearly—wait for me here, don't leave."

"Eh!"

Harry stood behind the glass door and watched Lily go further and further, and it was too late for him to stop.
-
Lily followed in the direction that the previous figure left.

Since being trapped in the kerosene lamp for so many years, Lily has become very sensitive, unwilling to give up any clues that may be useful-because that may be her only hope of liberation.

Although she has finally returned to her family, Lily still has a lot of uneasiness in her heart.

She knows all too well that her present life could be taken away at any moment.

After all, Hai Erbo is still alive.

Lily followed all the way to Knockturn Alley, she walked carefully through the narrow aisle.Either ignore it, or use the wand in your hand to drive back the bad-hearted people around you.

Finally, Lily spotted the figure again, right in front of the Borgin-Bock store.

And the other party had already opened the door and walked in.

Lily looked around vigilantly, and then she followed into the shop.

As soon as she opened the door, Lily heard two voices talking.

"I heard you have everything here."

"I heard? Did you hear it from the adults at home? Who are your parents? This is not an amusement park, so don't come here to make trouble."

"But I don't think the things in this store are so good. Children in the past would not play with these toys."

"Huh? I told you to leave, didn't you hear? Get out!"

"I have a few things here that you might be interested in."

Lily saw the smaller figure take out an item that could never fit in from the pocket of the witch robe—it was a half-person-high cabinet with mottled surfaces and paint peeling off in some places, as if Found it from the trash.

The opponent's ability aroused Bojin's interest.

"You stole this from home? What's the use of this thing?"

"This cabinet is called a dwarf cabinet. Once a normal person enters it, he will become a dwarf, and he will never be able to change back. Someone once tried to turn a wizard he didn't like into a goblin, or a house-elf, so that person could be reasonable. Killed him—unfortunately, he failed, leaving only this half-finished product, and after finding too many dwarf corpses, his evil behavior was finally exposed, and the result was that his head was chopped off."

There was a silence in the shop.

The expression on Bojin's face was very unnatural. He looked at this unknown guest, wondering how she could tell such a horrible story.

At this time, the guest suddenly opened her eyes wide after she finished speaking. She stared closely at Bo Jin and said in a low voice, "Do you want to go in? Do you want to see what's in this cabinet?"

A bewitched expression appeared on Bojin's face, and his eyes became dull a little bit—just when he was about to go around the counter, a sharp cry suddenly sounded from the back door of the shop.

The sound woke Borgin.

"You—" He stared at the other side.

At this moment, Lily suddenly ran over, holding the cabinet with one hand, and hugging this unknown guest by the waist with the other.

"Sorry, so she's here with you, I thought I couldn't find her—I have to leave, goodbye!"

Before Bojin could get even more angry, Lily took the opportunity to run out of the shop.

She walked quickly all the way, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she left Knockturn Alley.

The figure caught in her elbow stared at Lily expressionlessly.

This look made Lili feel a little flustered for no reason. She suppressed the discomfort and walked back to the ice cream shop, then found an empty table and sat down next to it.

She thought it was better not to bring the other party to see Harry first, so as not to cause more trouble.

This person of unknown origin was placed next to her by Lily.

It was a girl who looked very young, too young to be alone in Diagon Alley—let alone Knockturn Alley.

The most important thing is that Lily carefully looked at the color of each other's hair and eyes.

All silver.

This little girl looks exactly like Angela.

"Who are you?" Lily said, staring closely at the other party.

The little girl looked straight at Lily, her little head was upturned, she looked very cute.

But for some reason, the longer the other party was silent, the more uneasy it brought to Lily's heart.

Then, two voices sounded at the same time.

"who are you?"

"Do you have money?"

Lily froze for a moment: "What did you say?"

The little girl pointed to the poster at the entrance of the ice cream shop - a big vanilla ice cream was drawn on it.

"I want to eat that, buy it for me."
-
Office of Ancient Magic.

Lily pushed the little girl who looked like Angela forward, holding a piece of chocolate and vanilla ice cream in her hands, busy eating them.

Al's eyes widened in surprise. He stared at the little girl carefully for a while, and then turned his head to look at Angela who was also surprised.

"Ah! [Why is it so similar?]"

Angela said to herself puzzled, "I don't remember having a younger sister."

"She's not your sister." Lily looked at Angela and said, then turned her head to look at Toby behind the desk with a serious face, and her tone became more serious.

"Her name is Morgan, Morgan Le Fay. She is the legendary rival of Merlin, the real fairy of the lake, the original owner of Angela's body, and also... the owner of Death Castle."

Toby's eyes, hidden behind his hair, blinked.

"Okay," he turned his head to look around Lily: "Where are the others? Why can't I see them?"

"I mean her alone!" Lily said anxiously, "Why don't you understand—"

"I see."

Toby stood up suddenly. He walked around the desk, took out a wand from his pocket, walked up to this "Morgan", and watched her eat ice cream while raising his wand to "Morgan"'s forehead.

"Of course I understand. I'm afraid today is the day when I will pollute my soul, I never thought I would not be able to escape this day—Avada——!"

"You are crazy!"

"do not!"

"ah!"

Al, Angela, and Lily Qiqi stopped Toby.

Toby shouted as he struggled to get rid of it: "You are crazy! She is Merlin's deadly enemy! What kind of a good person is that! If we don't kill her now, do we have to wait until she reaches adulthood? There is no such rule in my place. , get out of the way—Al! Why are you messing around! Hurry up! Cast a spell directly! Hurry up and kill her!"

"Listen to me!" Lily yelled, trying to stop Toby's arm holding the wand: "I didn't bring her here to let you kill her! Why don't you think about why she Can she survive until now? It was Hai Erbo who revived her—and she escaped from Hai Erbo just now, do you understand now?"

"I see." Toby said in a low tone.

Al suddenly yelled exaggeratedly, and Angela, who understood the meaning, rushed to grab Toby's wand—unfortunately, she made a wrong calculation—Toby directly became an intangible devil, and he broke away from the hands of the three Go out and immediately sweep over to Morgan who is licking chocolate ice cream.

From the beginning to the end, there was no expression on Morgan's face. She concentrated on eating the ice cream, her body turned black little by little, and turned into paint-like smoke, which made Toby fly away.

When Toby turned around, she found that Morgan had turned back into a human form, and she was still holding the ice cream in her hand.

"This trick is useless to me."

Morgan lowered her head, and she said in a clear voice: "The devil can't hurt me. Although your devil looks a little different, it still doesn't work."

Toby thought carefully about the changes that had just occurred in Morgan.

"Why are you also a devil? Since you are Merlin's enemy, you shouldn't be able to do this move. Why did you become like this?"

In the distant past, pureblood wizards could summon their own demons, but they didn't become demons.

This is a punishment unique to Muggle-borns, and it is not a pleasant thing.

Morgan finally looked up.

Her silvery eyes met Toby's.

"I'm not a pure-blood wizard. And only later people will call me the fairy of the lake. When I was alive, I was more often called a witch-like Merlin, our blood is not pure enough, nor pure enough. Blood."

Toby stared at the little girl in front of him.

"What do you remember?"

"Not much, the blood that Hai Erbo forced out of Voldemort's body is not enough, the body he recreated for me can only be this size - and it's not just because of the body, I'm not the original Morgan. That Morgan It’s already dead. The person standing in front of you now is not a living person, at most it’s a walking corpse with a beating heart. It can be a replica or a piece of incomplete memory, but it’s not the original Morgan. "

Angela suddenly became a little uncomfortable.

She knew very well that her body was originally owned by the other party, and now that the original owner came to her, she wouldn't have to return her body, would she?

What should she do?
While Angela was thinking wildly, Toby then asked, "Why did Hai Erbo resurrect you?"

"Because he needs a helper who can deal with Death Castle." Morgan said, "I am the master there, and I don't need to make any effort to make all the residents obey me—now Haierbo has me." Of all the feathers, all I can keep are a few relics of the residents."

"Feather?" Toby asked vigilantly, "You killed all the residents?"

"They were long dead."

Even when he said this, Morgan's tone remained unchanged.

"It wasn't until now that I realized that the idea of ​​relying on the devil to escape the conservation of magic was wrong from the very beginning. Those who can survive until now are not the original residents. They have all become monsters due to the influence of the devil. It shouldn't be Devil, only love can do this successfully, and it's not easy. Love is never easy, the hardest magic and the rarest instinct among wizards."

After hearing these words, Toby looked at Lily subconsciously. She could escape from the kerosene lamp only by relying on love.

If it wasn't for Merlin's help in the end, it is estimated that Lily would never come back one day.

"Do you know this thing?"

Toby still had the kerosene lamp, which no longer had any housekeepers in it.

Morgan looked at the kerosene lamp in Toby's hand from a distance.

"Of course I know, it's mine," she said.

Toby frowned dissatisfied: "No, it's mine now."

As an excellent archaeologist, he never cared about such trivial matters as ownership.

"Then I'll give it to you." Morgan gave up simply: "This is just the inspiration I got from those wooden doors back then, and I planned to try it out - but I don't know what love is at all, and Merlin knows more than me. Learn more about what love is."

Toby pressed, "Wooden doors? You mean Mason doors?"

After getting an affirmative answer, Toby pondered for a while.

"So. Both you and Merlin were persecuted by pure-blood wizards? Then why are you two rivals?"

"Because our ideas are different." Morgan said: "He tried to save the weak, and I just want to unite with enough helpers. During that period, not all pure-blood wizards agreed with the idea of ​​​​waging war. Many people can be won over—some of them are spies, and Merlin relied on those spies to successfully take away all the devils."

"What about you?" Toby looked at Morgan with suspicion: "Since you created those feathers, and you were also involved in the design of the automatic casting wand, why wouldn't you be a pureblood wizard's helper?"

Morgan's eyes changed a little bit.

Toby saw the contempt in her eyes.

"If the information provided is not attractive enough, how could the spies gain trust, and how could Merlin save the prisoners—someone has to die, either some or all of them. Otherwise, the war will never end. "

"But it's different now."

Morgan went on to say; "Someone wants to start the war again, Hai Erbo has already made sufficient preparations, he will have countless powerful helpers and subordinates, and now he is only one step away from achieving his goal - Merlin's heart is still with you Here, right?"

"The night of the next full moon will be the time for Haier to wave his hand."

It was precisely because Lily knew the news in advance that she thought of bringing Morgan to see Toby.

"That's not enough."

Toby asked again: "But what about you? What is your purpose?"

Morgan looked Toby in the eye.

"If you're referring to Merlin trying to save the weak, I'm not the same as him."

"I just hope that all the pure-blood wizards are dead."

Lily saw a smile on Toby's face.

She heard Toby say to herself: "Thank you for your hard work, Lily, leave it to me next."

"No, I don't know about it, I—"

"I understand, but I still want to thank you."

"You don't need to thank you, no, this is not right. What have I done?"

"Goodbye, and say hello to James and Harry for me, and thank you again for the present."

"I--"

The door closed in front of Lily.

She was in a bad mood right now.

"how so."
