After leaving the infirmary, they took a leisurely stroll along the tree-lined path.
Behind them, a row of automatic trolleys were lined up. Three babies were kicking and giggling on them. Helena was in charge of pushing them from behind. Narcissa was very sensible and didn't follow them to disturb the family's happiness.
The female spirit calmly adjusted Delphi's flying carpet toy, adjusted the straps pulled off by her sister Wednesday, and tidied up the awning of her chubby brother Thursday on the trolley.
The spirit was already very familiar with taking care of the three babies. Wednesday and Thursday did not have any more trouble than when she took care of their parents.
Allen, on the other hand, had a blissful look on his face. He was surrounded by the people he loved. His children, sister, and even his adopted daughter were cute, healthy, and lively. The warm sunshine and fresh air filled his heart with a sense of peace and tranquility. However, it was soon replaced by another thought.
"Helena, it's not a problem to take care of two more." Luna gestured three fingers and then turned it into five. She shook her head and said to Penello who had one of Allen's sisters hanging on his chest and back.
"It's okay. I'm not like you. I promised Morgan-le-feil. Naturally, I'll take good care of them." Penello stubbornly raised his chin. For the first time, he looked at the female spirit with pity. "Of course, your daughter will be fine. She has to take care of you …"
"I'll take care of Delphi after I finish eating …" Hermione, who was still holding a small piece of lemon cake that Lupin's wife gave her, heard the conversation between Penello and Luna. She felt a little embarrassed for her adopted daughter so she ate faster.
"You're very close to Morgan-le-feil …" Luna nodded at Penello and said absentmindedly, "Just like me and Helena …"
"Ever since I came back from Greece, I've been thinking about something …" With a hesitant expression, Allen interrupted the ladies' conversation. "I think we still have to find a way to add insurance for everyone to reduce the risk of death."
Thinking about Allen's words, Hermione sucked her fingers ungracefully and cleaned the remaining cake crumbs on her hand.
Penello raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Allen. A moment later, he said, "Soul item. You don't have to worry about death when you use a soul item."
The image of Lord Voldemort's snake-like face flashed across Hermione's mind. Her mouth was pursed tightly. At this time, Penello noticed the current situation and said with some dissatisfaction, "Allen, you and the crazy girl have a plan again?"
"I haven't told anyone about this before …" Allen shook his head and said seriously, "There are some problems with this idea. We need to use Luna."
"Are you talking about the kind of soul item made by Lord Voldemort?" Hermione bit her lips and said slowly, "This kind of thing is not very … I mean, soul items are a very evil kind of black magic …"
"Miss Know-It-All, quickly put away that righteous face of yours." When Penello heard Hermione's words, he pursed his lips and said in a tone as if he couldn't stand it, "For Luna's sake, I thought you were no longer against black magic …"
"I'm not prejudiced against black magic in general! But soul tools are special … In fact, most black magic books don't even record the cultivation method. "Hermione's face turned long as she explained out of habit." Only books like 'Secrets of Black Magic Revealed' and a few other extreme black magic books have records of it. The process of creating soul tools is to split your soul and hide a part of it in an object outside your body. This way, even if your body is attacked or destroyed, you won't die because there's still a part of your soul that hasn't been damaged in the world. " After noticing Penello's disapproving expression, she raised her voice a little. "The most important thing is that to create a soul vessel, one must commit a heinous crime, such as murder or something even more evil. Only then can one's soul be temporarily unstable enough to be split, and then recite the incantation 'Soul Break, Anda Jones' to separate a part of the soul from the body and seal it in a vessel to make a soul vessel." (Author's Note: The incantation to create a soul vessel is an expansion of the official setting, not a private one.)
"As expected of a staff with a dragon's heart. Miss Know-It-All, aren't you more familiar with black magic than I am? But don't forget, our situation is different from Lord Voldemort's. Now that we're facing a great enemy, nothing else matters. The most important thing is to 'stay alive' and not be a burden to Allen. " Penello rolled her eyes in disdain. Then she turned to Allen and said worriedly, "Allen, but as long as the soul is split, it will become extremely unstable … The most important thing is that he has turned himself into a lunatic …" She then looked at Hermione who was actually in a dilemma after being reprimanded by Penello, as if Hermione was mocking her. "Don't look at me like that. Although my emotions are affected by black magic, it's far from the level of Lord Voldemort and the madwoman …"
"That's because he was too crazy and actually made seven of them. The number of times he split his soul made him unstable … Otherwise, making a soul tool would only cause a person to have more 'negative emotions' … I have to admit that splitting your soul will make your soul unstable … But this is an emergency solution …" Alan explained to Penello. "And the most important thing is that the act of making a soul tool isn't irreversible. After we finish off the Grim Reaper, we can make our souls whole again …" He glanced at Hermione and said, "The method is to repent. You have to truly feel what you've done … This is something that Voldemort, the product of the Enchanted Memory, couldn't do. But we can … Although this process is very painful for the wizards who reunite their souls … I reckon that some weak Dark Wizards might be destroyed by the pain." (Author's Note: The setting of being able to restore one's soul after making a soul tool is also an expansion of the official setting, not a private setting.)
This made Penello feel relieved. She nodded and didn't say anything else. Instead, she looked at Allen with admiration. He was her junior's lover.
On the other hand, Hermione reflexively wanted to emphasize the part about committing heinous crimes in the process of making soul tools. However, when she recalled Penello's reprimand and looked at Alan's haggard face, Hermione wondered if she should emphasize her principles, how she should emphasize them, and how she should come up with an alternative plan. This kind of entanglement made Hermione feel dizzy as if she was carsick, and her stomach felt uncomfortable.
At this time, Allen looked up and looked at Luna who was distracted after Allen spoke. He knew that she was using her divination ability.
And as if she knew that Allen was looking at her, Luna came back to her senses and looked at Allen for a moment. She nodded slightly. "Probably."
Allen was relieved when he got Luna's affirmative answer. He looked at Hermione and Penello. "As for the traditional way of using crimes … Luna is now very good at creating illusions and affecting people's emotions. When the time comes, she will design an illusion that is tailored to your personal situation to replace it. Anyway, the purpose is to make your souls unstable so that it's easier to pull and cut them … This way, you won't really do any crimes … This way, you won't really hurt anyone and will also solve the problem … The problem is that your parents have just come into contact with magic, and their mastery of black magic is not enough for them to split their souls … But this is the most suitable method I can think of …"
"Our parents should be fine as long as they don't leave the floating city!" Hermione immediately responded. She felt guilty, knowing that Allen had taken such a big detour because of her.
"Allen, but now that you've told us the way, we're already prepared. Will the illusion still work?" Penello frowned and asked.
"You won't be able to tell." Luna sang, but at the same time, her vague voice also sounded in Allen's heart. "But you know that I can't do anything that you can't tell."
Allen's vague but firm voice also sounded in Luna's heart. "I can recall the duel between Raccoon City and Greece … If that's not enough, the war is not over yet …"
