I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - #114 - Chapter 114 The Last Time
In the next few days, it was obvious that Erin’s condition was getting worse.
Ian had never seen her so fragile and helpless. She was a strong-willed girl who could even tire herself out in the vegetable garden just to finish her work.
Nowadays, most of the time, I can only lie in bed or half-rely on the sofa. I only have one or two hours a day to move freely.
Ian saw Erin leaning on the sofa open her eyes and walked forward quickly.
“How do you feel? Drink the potion first.”
With that said, he unscrewed a bottle of vitality tonic potion and handed it to Irene’s mouth.
However, this time she did not drink the medicine obediently as usual. She just gently held Ian’s hand holding the potion, feeling the coldness and slightly rough touch of the palm, and then slowly closed her eyes again, and the worry between her brows gradually faded away.
Ian looked at the calm and peaceful Erin. At this moment, he felt that if he didn’t take action, he might only be left with regrets.
…
About evening, Erin woke up again. Now she only has half an hour in the evening every day, which is her most energetic time of the day.
Although they are still very weak, they can at least drink medicine, chat with each other, and have clear consciousness.
“We can’t go on like this, so I think we need to talk.” Ian looked at the pale and thin Erin in front of him and said very seriously.
“Well, I’m listening to what you want to say.” Erin looked at him and tried her best to put a gentle smile on her face.
“Do you remember? What I told you once…”
At this moment, Erin seemed to have returned to that afternoon a few months ago.
“Magic creates miracles.” The two said in unison again in tacit understanding.
“Yes, so I have to do something. There is another way, which is to transform you into a phoenix. Although the success rate is very slim, maybe less than one percent, which is why I have been reluctant to mention it. “
Speaking of this, Ian looked into Erin’s eyes seriously.
“But considering your current state, I’m afraid I won’t have the chance to say it again tomorrow. So, are you willing to try? This is the last solution I can think of.”
Erin’s voice was a little weak, but her eyes were very firm.
“Why not give it a try? As you said, I might not be able to last even two days. Even if I fail, I will only survive for two days less. Besides… our photo album has already been filled with photos. “
Ian said no more, got up and went to the room to get the blood potion. Although after his improvement, it was basically harmless to wizards, but Irene was a standard Muggle… The one percent success rate was just his guess, and it might even be lower.
When he returned with the potion, he saw Irene’s expectant expression and handed the potion to her.
“It’s so beautiful…” Erin couldn’t help but say as she looked at the brightly colored potion.
Just when she was about to drink it, Ian suddenly grabbed Erin’s hand. “Faith! Remember that a wizard’s power comes from faith! The Phoenix and I are here waiting for you.”
Ian’s tone could not distinguish between sadness and joy, and was extremely calm.
Erin glanced at Phoenix standing on the table tenderly, then turned her head and said to Ian: “Actually, I’m lucky and don’t need to feel sad for me.”
After saying that, she raised her head and drank the entire bottle of blood potion in one gulp.
…
For the next time, Ian stayed here quietly. He looked at Irene, whose vitality was getting weaker and weaker, and probably understood the result. Not everyone is favored by fate…
He had thought about how sad he would be if Erin couldn’t survive it, but when it came to this moment, he seemed too calm…
He took out the emerald jade pendant that Irene had given him as a gift, and gently placed it in the other person’s hand… Then he turned and walked to the door, sat on the familiar lounge chair, and looked at the sky quietly.
Because he could no longer feel Erin’s breath of life, he knew… nothing could be changed.
At this moment, Ian felt like an active volcano, about to erupt at any time, but his reason told him that he could not blame anyone…
“Sorrows and joys are normal, birth, old age, sickness and death are natural…” Ian looked at the snowflakes falling in the sky, and suddenly felt that every piece of snow was a life, and falling from the sky was the entire process of its life…
At this moment, he felt the magic power in his body boiling. Ian, who had experienced it once, understood that this was a precursor to the reawakening of his bloodline, but he was not happy at all… He knew very well that this was what Irene had paid for with her life. His awakening.
Emotional creatures like wizards can only bring great power when their souls undergo huge changes.
Maybe this is just a dream… Ian leaned on the lounge chair and slowly closed his eyes, not paying attention to the cold weather and the scattered snowflakes in the sky.
…
In the room, the patron saint phoenix had appeared beside Irene at some point. It used its long beak to pull away Irene’s arm, just as it had been held in Irene’s arms, and waited quietly. .
…
The night was very cold and very long.
When the dawn of the next day shone on Ian’s face, he opened his eyes. The snowstorm that had also lasted for a week had stopped at some point.
Today is a rare sunny day. He looked at the long-lost sun and whispered: “Look, I guessed it right… This snow really didn’t last long.”
After saying that, he turned around and walked back to the room. The deceased was gone, and he couldn’t let Irene lie there.
But when he walked into the living room, the scene in front of him made him a little sluggish… Irene’s figure had long since disappeared, replaced by a blue flame burning slowly in the air.
His Phoenix Patronus kept hovering around the flames…
“You can’t even bear to part with her?” Ian, who had never shed tears, silently shed tears from the corners of his eyes after seeing Phoenix’s performance.
He understood that all this was the result of Phoenix, not Irene’s success after drinking the potion.
The phoenix used its own flame to ignite Erin’s body, turning her into this ball of Gubulai fairy fire that could exist forever.
He walked forward and gently touched the Gubulai fairy fire with his hand. He did not feel any heat, only a faint warmth.
At this moment, Ian gave up completely. The miracle he expected did not happen. This was just the most ordinary Gubulai fairy fire. It has no life, no consciousness, and even if it were not maintained by the magic power of the Phoenix, this flame might soon dissipate.
When he looked away from the flames, the emerald pendant that fell on the ground caught his eye…
