Chapter 569

Even though he was too tired to stand up himself, he still wanted to do something.

"Professor... Professor... how are you?"

He said intermittently.

His tone was weak.

Seeming like he would faint the next second.

Lockhart blinked hard.

He wanted to say he was very bad.

He seemed to only be able to move one eye.

But he couldn't say it.

He could only look at Darren angrily with that one eye.

Darren seemed to understand.

He placed his hand on Lockhart's head again.

【System, let him stay like this from now on, the kind that even Merlin coming wouldn't be able to save. How much Saintly Father Value?】

【Ding, need 2000 Saintly Father Value. Deduct?】

Ah, hey!

【Deduct.】

Darren secretly grinned.

It was just that he lowered his head to hide it.

He still acted as if he wanted to save Lockhart again.

It was just that no matter how hard he tried this time, it was useless. He seemed to have no way to make Lockhart recover again.

"I... Professor, I seem to be unable to use that ability anymore..."

Darren said in panic.

He seemed to have squeezed out all his abilities.

But it was of no use at all.

"Professor, wait for me, I'll go find someone to save you..."

Darren wanted to stand up and go outside immediately, but he seemed unable to stand up at all.

As soon as he tried to stand up, he fell onto Lockhart's face dejectedly.

"Professor... I... I can't stand up... I can't save you.

Professor... try to see if you can stand up yourself... Professor..."

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

Darren's eyes turned even redder.

He sat beside Lockhart, trying to get Lockhart to crawl up himself with red eyes.

Lockhart's one movable eye looked at him full of anger.

Seeming to think he was doing it on purpose.

Darren showed a wicked smile to Lockhart at close range.

But when he raised his head, his beautiful green eyes were already full of mist.

"Professor... it's my fault. If only I had reminded you louder, it would be better. If only my hand hadn't left your head just now..."

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

Darren said weakly.

He seemed like he would cry the next second.

In sharp contrast to him was Lockhart's gaze.

He looked at Darren with eyes almost full of hatred.

Darren's expression just now had already proven that Darren was doing it on purpose.

If he could still move and speak, he would definitely pick up his wand and kill Darren, this old fox...

Darren looked at his eyes, and his face turned even paler.

He wanted to say something, but he tried a few times and still couldn't stand up, so he could only turn his head with red eyes.

"Professor, it should be soon, I should be able to soon...

I should just be exhausted... maybe I can try again to see if I can heal you."

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saintly Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

Darren tried to speak in a happy voice.

It was just that his eyes were extremely sorrowful.

Clearly, he himself didn't quite believe he could really heal Lockhart.

It might be one minute, or it might be ten minutes.

After Darren's disdainful efforts, and after Lockhart's face was swollen from being hit, he finally stood up.

He waved his wand, seemingly wanting to take Lockhart out.

But before he could take Lockhart away, Harry and Ron finally walked in from outside.

They seemed to have just seen Darren, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

"Darren, what are you..."

Harry asked hypocritically.

He and Ron had actually been following Darren from behind just now.

They saw Lockhart threatening Darren.

They also saw the scene where Lockhart was almost killed just now.

And they even saw the resentful look Lockhart gave Darren after being saved by Darren.

Just when Darren fell to the ground just now, Harry had intended to take off his Invisibility Cloak to help Darren.

But Ron suspected that if they appeared now, Darren's kindness would definitely make them rush to send Lockhart to St. Mungo's.

How could they be willing for such a thing to happen, letting Lockhart wake up and bite Darren back?

He felt that Lockhart wasn't dead anyway, and if he stayed like this in the future, it would actually be quite good.

So he and Ron decided to wait a while before coming.

Because Ron said that even for St. Mungo's, if they went late, it might delay treatment.

In order to let Lockhart delay treatment, the two of them circled around this area for several more minutes.

After discovering that Darren could stand up, they finally took off their Invisibility Cloak and showed themselves. After all, if they didn't come out, Darren would have taken Lockhart away himself.

"Darren, how are you?"

Harry looked at Darren worriedly.

Although he had seen it before, Darren was fine this time.

It was indeed as Darren said, he was exhausted.

But he was still worried.

After all, he had just heard Darren say that some of his abilities couldn't be used anymore.

"Brother..."

As soon as Darren saw Harry, his eyes turned red again.

Harry almost choked up instantly.

Ever since Darren came to Hogwarts, he hadn't had a few comfortable days.
