Chapter 441 The Cursed Child
Scorpius was walking in the room, holding the Elder Wand and the Resurrection Stone, and the Invisibility Cloak in his pocket. In front of him was the dying Delphi. Voldemort had been completely defeated and was defeated by the mysterious wizards from the Wandering Sea. He was unable to fight back... He even only used one punch.
——Is this a dream?
Scorpius didn't know, but he sincerely hoped that this was not his imagination. If it was really a dream, he also hoped that he could wake up as late as possible.
And until he walked in front of Delphi, feeling the sticky blood under his feet, feeling the little magic left in Delphi's body, and looking at the face that had appeared countless times in nightmares, it was now almost unrecognizable... Scorpius Only then was I finally sure of one thing, all of this was not a dream.
"……kill me."
Feeling the footsteps in front of her stop, Delphi, who was lying on the ground, spoke vague words. She reluctantly raised her head and looked directly at Scorpius from bottom to top. She repeated: "Kill." "
Want to kill her?
Scorpius raised his wand almost reflexively, and magic surged in his body. He had imagined this situation more than once. He had won, Voldemort had completely failed, and Delphi had no ability to resist. He could only A spell needs to be uttered gently...
"Avada——"
But at the last moment of reciting the spell, Scorpius stopped because he saw Delphi's eyes covered with blood - there was no fear of death in her eyes, or the fear that he had seen countless times in the past. , for Voldemort and his father's fanaticism, but calm and relief.
It was like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head. At this moment, Scorpius recalled many things. He recalled the stories Albus told him, the stories about the final battle at Hogwarts before he was born, he recalled what Dumbledore said, he recalled Grindelwald's words, he recalled The prophecy about Voldemort came up...
So he calmed down.
"No, I can't, I can't kill you."
Scorpius closed his eyes, and the raging anger gradually subsided in his veins: "Try to make some repentance, Delphi Riddle, this is your only chance and the last chance."
Delphi's eyes widened in surprise. It could be said that she had anticipated every answer from Scorpius, but she did not expect that he would say such words. With her extraordinary intelligence, she instantly made the connection. Reaching the source of this sentence: "How dare you——"
"Yes, these were the last words Harry Potter said to Tom Riddle during the Battle of Hogwarts."
Scorpius said what Delphi did not say: "A death curse linked their fates together, just like when we were born, your fate and mine were also linked together... As 'being' Cursed Child'.
"...Yeah, of course, Cursed Child."
Hearing Scorpius mention this name, Delphi couldn't help but let out two short laughs: "Yes, it's thanks to you that you helped me attract the attention of the magic world, and caused those stupid wizards to have the illusion that I was able to grow up healthily and learn magic... Speaking of which, we seem to be related, should I be considered your aunt?"
"So you are planning to spare my life now because the Malfoy family values family ties the most?"
"It's not that complicated." Scorpius shook his head and said, "The reason why I can't kill you is simply that I want you to receive the justice you deserve."
"Hahahaha...are you addicted to playing Harry Potter? Do you really feel like you are the stupid 'savior'?"
Delphi suddenly laughed crazily: "Hypocrisy! I killed your friends and destroyed your future, and now you say you won't kill me, and you still want to imprison me in Azkaban for trial?"
"If it were the real Harry Potter standing here, he would make the same decision as me. Everyone has the right to repent... This has nothing to do with the so-called 'playing', but what I want to tell you Prove that we are different.”
Scorpius spoke quietly, and every time he said a word, he felt something in his body being released: "You are a murderer, but I am not, and I have no power to decide your life or death. We are people who belong to the future and should not have any impact on the present... You should accept the punishment you deserve, but not this now, but in the 'now' that belongs to us."
"Do you think that now, you can still treat everything as if it didn't happen?"
Delphi's laughter became more and more crazy, and blood overflowed from the corners of her mouth: "Do you know how many things I have done? Cornelius Fudge is dead, Severus Snape is also dead, the future has changed a long time ago It’s become a mess!”
"That's exactly the change we made...or, in other words, this was originally a part of fate."
Scorpius felt that his mind was clearer than ever before. The more he spoke, the more relaxed and calm he became: "Just like Harry Potter and Voldemort, we are also two sides of the coin, but the only difference between us is that I am "You grew up under the love of your parents, and you were raised by the Death Eater couple, with a crazy and twisted love for your father."
Delphi's laughter stopped, as if Scorpius' words had struck a sore spot in her. After a long while, the woman whispered: "So, what do you want to say? Do you want to say that I have done so many crazy things, and the essence of them is because of... love?"
"Yes, that's what I want to say."
Scorpius answered without hesitation: "Both you and I, our original ideals were to change something. Albus and I wanted to bring Cedric Diggory back to his father, and you wanted to see your father again... The origin of all this is due to this."
"It was never a time converter that sent us back to the past, because time is also a kind of magic... The real power is love."
"Love is the most powerful magic."
Scorpius suddenly felt something in his heart. He took out the time converter from his arms and looked at the small hourglass glowing. This traveler who had traveled through time several times suddenly had an epiphany at this moment. He realized that in this place closest to the origin of magic, he could do things that he had never been able to do before... It was also at this moment that Scorpius realized that the time had come.
"We have been disturbing you for too long."
So, Scorpius squatted down, put his hand on Delphi's shoulder, and said to the broken time converter: "Please send us back to the original time, let us return to the original place."
The next moment, whether it was Delphi and Scorpius, or Yang Yun and Chu Xuan who were listening to their conversation, they all felt a breeze blowing across their cheeks in this place where there should not be any wind.
——The wind blew.
The wind brought the seeds of the story, time made them germinate, and then the flowers bloomed and fell, and it was another reincarnation.
