Chapter 449: The Expression of Jealousy

Hermione's willingness to trust Ailina was a great help to her in constructing the "God of War." They only spent one night successfully establishing a second personality. Then, Hermione spent nearly a week finally barely accepting and adapting to the existence of the second personality.

"I think it's not bad." On Friday evening, Hermione said while eating, "Ailina's knowledge seems to have entered my brain too. When I read books, I often think of some things I didn't know originally."

"You used the word 'remember,' which shows that the 'God of War' has safely moved into your subconscious," Harry suggested. "Let's try to see if we can transform tomorrow."

"Perhaps we can, but what if Ailina," Hermione was somewhat worried, "I mean, Ailina's personality also can't transform?"

"You don't have to always worry about things that haven't happened yet," Ron said while sending a large spoonful of food into his mouth. "Try it first and then talk."

Harry originally turned his head to look at Ron. He still wanted to suggest Ron not talk while chewing, but at this moment he saw several green figures.

"Nine o'clock tomorrow morning, at the old place," Ma Erfu said arrogantly. "You've been dodging me for a week, Saber."

Ron swallowed what was in his mouth and waved his hand somewhat helplessly. "I don't want to bully children; you have no idea how powerful the strength I've obtained is."

"Fine." Ron said casually. "Old time, old place, old opponent, old ending."

Ma Erfu's face flushed red all of a sudden. He said proudly: "We'll see." Then he flicked his sleeve and walked away swaggeringly with two followers.

"Ma Erfu's mental state is worrying," Harry sighed. "He actually talks and laughs with Goyle and Crabbe now."

Early the next morning, Hermione followed Harry and Ron into the Room of Requirement with the mentality of exchange and learning. The moment she saw her, Ma Erfu's brow twitched, but he didn't say anything extra, just issued a battle invitation.

"Wake up burning! Cross-Z Magma!"

"Flaming Unsheathed!"

When Saber completed the transformation, Ma Erfu was stunned for a moment. His voice came from under the face mask, somewhat distorted: "You use the basic form? Where is your new power? Where is the Elemental Dragon?"

"It's already enough." Saber held the sword with both hands, the tip of the sword drooping slightly.

Magma Dragon let out a low growl, rushing forward suddenly, the fist cover wrapped in high temperature hitting Saber's chest directly. Saber didn't rush, the long sword turned gently in his hand, the blade like a spirit snake welcoming the fist cover flashing with light. Then, the moment the blade and fist cover contacted, Saber's wrist shook, the blade led along the momentum, deflecting the fist force. The fist grazed his shoulder armor, bringing up a gust of hot wind.

Magma Dragon missed a hit, adjusted his posture quickly, the left fist followed closely, hitting Saber's abdomen directly. Saber moved his footsteps slightly, his body tilted slightly, the sword hilt pressed down along the momentum, accurately blocking Magma Dragon's left fist. At the same time, his blade picked, the tip of the sword pointing straight at the throat, forcing Magma Dragon to retreat one step.

"Your attack is too direct." Saber adjusted his posture again, the blade faintly glowing red.

"Your attack is too direct." Saber readjusted his posture, the blade faintly glowing with red light.

Magma Dragon was forced to twist his body in the air, barely avoiding this stab, but his footsteps were somewhat staggering when landing. He had just stood firm, and Saber's offensive had arrived. The blade slashed toward the shoulder, Magma Dragon hurriedly raised his left arm to block, the blade and armor collided, sparks flying everywhere.

"Try another move." Saber didn't take the opportunity to knock him down, but instead retreated a step gently.

After a short pause, Magma Dragon erupted suddenly, both fists waved continuously, and the scorching magma flames smashed toward Saber like raindrops. Under the face mask, Ma Erfu's face had already flushed red; he had never been so ashamed and angry before. Saber, on the other hand, was unhurried, the long sword dancing in his hand, the blade accurately deflecting every attack, the movements clean and neat, without any extra movement.

Magma Dragon's offensive became more and more chaotic. Finally, he gave up the meaningless waving of fists himself, sitting on the ground dejectedly, and the transformation was also lifted.

"What are you doing? Are you still Ron?" Ma Erfu's tone was full of grievance and incomprehension.

"Just wanted to figure out a problem," Ron's voice came from under the knife-like face mask, "that is, why exactly I swing the sword."

Pan Xi walked up and soothed Ma Erfu's emotions with gentle movements. "It's okay, let's think about it, maybe we can become stronger next time."

Harry looked at Ma Erfu, who had a red face, somewhat amusedly. He even had a feeling of watching a child. What kind of person was this Cross-Z before? How did he turn a perfectly good scheming belly-black young master into this kind of reckless fool?

"Let's do the next thing, Hermione, you try OOO," Harry said. "It just so happens Ron didn't spend too much effort, so he can help you test the current strength of OOO."

Hermione put away her mocking smile, nodded to Harry, then took out the belt and energy bottle, and closed her eyes slowly.

She threw the energy bottle up, then opened her eyes suddenly, and the aura of the whole person changed. Her other hand swept across the air suddenly, firmly grabbing the energy bottle she had just thrown.

"Pu·To·Tyranno-Zaurus!"

The purple figure appeared in front of everyone. Harry asked in surprise: "Directly Ptera-Tricera-Tyranno?"

"This degree doesn't count as anything," the voice under the face mask didn't sound like Hermione, but like Ailina. "How to evolve? Is it necessary to fight?"

Her aura was even stronger than the Magma Dragon just now. Saber adjusted his posture and raised his long sword very seriously.

OOO flipped her wrist, and a large purple axe suddenly appeared in her hand. She walked forward in big strides, directly slashing toward the long sword. Saber fell into a disadvantage in the first weapon collision, adjusted his posture quickly, and caught the second downward slash, but he couldn't help but retreat a few steps.

"Have to bring out real skills, Ron-Ron?"

"Max Hazard On!"

Saber inserted the Dangerous Trigger quickly, then took out a folded prop, but hesitated for a moment, put the prop back, and just turned the handle gently.

"Shake hands! Elemental Dragon!"

Relying on the power of the Elemental Dragon and exquisite swordsmanship, Saber and OOO fought to a standstill. OOO looked more unrestrained, the hand axe opening and closing, while Saber paid more attention to technique. Most of the time, his swordsmanship was deflecting, but a few collisions showed from the intensely bursting sparks that he was actually not weaker than OOO.

After fighting for a few more rounds, OOO took a step back actively, then gently took off the belt, revealing Hermione's figure. But she stood quite arrogantly, looking at Ron with playful eyes.

"Not bad, I just said I actually have talent, oh, perhaps Hermione has talent." She said.

In a corner not far away, Ma Erfu, who was originally sitting on the ground, his face had already turned into the color of a pig's liver.

"Even she, even this... even..."

The second personality Hermione suddenly seemed to have discovered something interesting, ran to his side quickly, lowered her head and laughed triumphantly: "Even you will show this expression? This expression of jealousy of others? Hahahahahahahaha!"

After laughing, she stood up straight again, stood in front of Harry and Ron, who were shocked, hugged them and said: "Thank you, very happy today, time to return her to you."

Her eyes closed and opened again. Hermione's own personality regained control of the body. She loosened her hands hugging the two, and pressed her scalp somewhat uncomfortably.

"This feeling is not good, it's like, I'm actually awake, you know?" She said. "The thoughts injected by Ailina are too arrogant, this is a bit unlike her."

"Actually this is her, when she first participated in the Triwizard Tournament, she was like this," Harry revealed a nostalgic look in his eyes. "How good, high-spirited, believing she could change everything."

"But the things she said, I never speak like this," Hermione's feet rubbed on the floor because of embarrassment. "Oh, I really hope you don't need OOO's power."

"Then are you going to delete her?" Ron asked somewhat amusedly.

Hermione hesitated for a moment. She looked at Ma Erfu, who had turned from jealousy to incompetent rage, and suddenly felt that actually, the second personality just did what she had long wanted to do, and at this moment, she also thoughtfully used "split personality" to throw off the responsibility for her.

"Not for now." Hermione's tone still carried a bit of secret joy. "Shall we go?"

Harry had a little bit of maintenance consciousness for a surface friend like Ma Erfu. He performed ten percent of apology seriously, lowered his head and said: "Sorry, Ma Erfu, I feel there was a flaw in the experiment, we have to go re-examine it."

"Yes yes, no wonder it was so abnormal today, you guys be careful not to drive her crazy, better let Madam Pomfrey check it." Pan Xi stepped down the stairs while not forgetting to express her dissatisfaction with barbs.

Since the words had reached this point, Harry waved goodbye naturally, then quickly caught up with Ron and Hermione.

However, in the afternoon, just as Harry finished dinner and was about to return to the dormitory, Pan Xi stood on his way and bowed to him very solemnly.

"Thank you, I don't know if it's a coincidence or a twist of fate, but Ma Erfu's bottle has started to be stained with gold," she said. "I feel his reason has also returned a little."

"Ah? Is it because of jealousy?" Ron said uncomprehendingly. "This isn't right, is it?"

"Perhaps." Harry looked at Pan Xi somewhat complicatedly. "It's because of your company; you were still by his side when he experienced the most painful failure, which gave him a reason that must be guarded." ===== CHAPTER 450 =====

"Perhaps." Harry looked at Pan Xi with some complexity, "It is because of your companionship; you remained by his side when he experienced his most painful failure, which gave him a reason he must protect."
