Chapter 866: He wasn
"Oh, child, you're finally awake. If you hadn't woken up, I'm afraid your fans would have been here to see you off."
See him off?
He wasn't dead, so what were they seeing him off for?
"They kept thinking you were about to die, after all, you were sent to St. Mungo's covered in wounds that day.
Many of them were scared to tears. Your friends stayed here guarding you for a long time; they believed you would definitely survive.
Unfortunately, just a moment ago, they were chased back to sleep by the healers. They really had bad timing."
This was a doctor wearing a white coat.
As she lowered her head to check his condition, Darren saw the badge on her chest read: Eleanor Fay, Intermediate Healer.
Eleanor pried open Darren's eyelids, looked carefully, and then took out her wand, tapping Darren's temples a few times.
Finally, she cast several more spells. After the spells showed a light indicating normalcy, she finally said with a smile: "Excellent, your wounds have healed completely, and there are no aftereffects. It's a good thing you drank the potion before coming here, otherwise you would definitely have been left with a few scars. Although you are a boy, scars are never good-looking."
Darren nodded inwardly.
Exactly, exactly, it would be too much to be left with scars.
It was fortunate that no scars remained.
Otherwise, he would have had to find a way to heal them himself.
But specifically treating his own scars would definitely make many people think he was being pretentious.
Speaking of which, the medical skills at St. Mungo's aren't that great! They aren't even as effective as Snape's potions.
Next time, it would be better to have Snape and Madam Pomfrey work together to save him! Of course, he couldn't say that out loud.
As a little Saint Father, the first thing to do upon waking up is not to care about one's own wounds, but to care about others' wounds and to blame oneself.
【Ding, a scenario for the Saint Father System to function has been detected near the host. A temporary task is now issued:
Ask about Mr. Diggory's injuries in a worried tone, and express your guilt for causing trouble for the Ministry of Magic.】
【Ding, upon completion of the task, you will receive the title 'Dragon Speaker'. Does the host wish to accept the task?】
Eh? Dragon Speaker?
The system isn't actually planning to make him participate in this year's Triwizard Tournament, is it? Speaking of which, no one would throw his name into the Goblet of Fire, right?
And Dumbledore would definitely be extra vigilant.
Who could manage that?
Darren was speechless.
However, he still accepted the task.
Then, a worried expression appeared on his face.
As if he had only just realized it, he asked anxiously: "Hello, do you know how Mr. Diggory is doing? I remember his injuries were very serious. At that time, I reacted too slowly; I should have…"
"Calm down, child!"
Eleanor interrupted Darren.
With a look of pity on her face, she said: "Silly child, don't worry like that. Mr. Diggory is already fine. He was discharged three days after you were sent to St. Mungo's."
Three days? Darren was a bit stunned.
Good grief, he had slept for at least three days this time.
It was possible it had been even longer.
"Over the past half-month, Mr. Diggory has also come to visit you many times, seemingly wanting to apologize to you.
But your friends wouldn't let him in, after all, he was the one who caused you to almost die."
Half a month! Darren was even more stunned.
This was practically saying that his summer vacation was about to end? Which meant that once he was discharged, he would have to return to Hogwarts for school? Snape!
What kind of grudge did they have against each other? Why did he have to sleep for so long?
Although he knew he had been hit by many spells, he definitely wouldn't have needed half a month to wake up at St. Mungo's.
At the very least, he should have woken up much earlier.
And the only one who could make him sleep that long was Snape.
How exactly did he improve the potion for its effects to be so strong?
However, as a little Saint Father, Darren still resisted the urge to complain.
He said with some embarrassment: "Actually, Mr. Diggory didn't do anything wrong. I was the one who was too anxious at the time, so I ordered him to do things; I should have said 'please'.
Perhaps if I had, none of this would have happened, and Mr. Diggory wouldn't have been injured. It's my fault."
As Darren's words fell, he saw a look of regret on Miss Eleanor's face.
Clearly, this lady felt deep admiration for his character.
Unfortunately, this was during a task, so no Saint Father points were gained.
"Child, don't think like that. The Ministry of Magic has already reached a conclusion about this incident.
It's all Mr. Diggory's fault; he might face the risk of suspension…"
Eleanor said angrily.
Like many others, she believed that it was that Mr. Diggory who had caused things to turn out this way.
Originally, those Death Eaters had all been captured by Darren; he only needed to tie them up and bring them to the Ministry of Magic, or wait for other Aurors to arrive.
But he didn't do that at all; he actually rushed in front of Darren and started arguing with him.
This made many people feel absolutely disgusted.
Conversely, Mr. Kingsley, who had been helping Darren there the whole time, was very responsible.
He kept trying to tie up those Death Eaters, although due to his strength, those Death Eaters still managed to escape in the end.
But his dedication still made many people admire him.
As for Mr. Diggory, he was met with nothing but curses.
Especially after many people saw Darren being brought to St. Mungo's covered in blood by Dumbledore.
They believed even more firmly that Mr. Diggory was not fit to work at the Ministry of Magic. ===== CHAPTER 868 =====
