His face showed an anxious expression, which made people feel worried.
"Hurry, I have to be faster, I can make it, I can save them."
Darren spoke in a low voice, and when he heard the absence of the Holy Father's Value sound beside him, he shut up and quickly followed the basilisk.
"Hermione! Watch out!"
Darren cried out in surprise after rounding a bend.
His face was filled with shock.
Hermione, who was facing him, was also startled. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Darren quickly pounce on her.
careful?
What are you being careful about?
Hermione was momentarily dazed.
Then she opened her eyes and saw the water curtain that Darren had released with his wand.
Through the water curtain, she saw those brass-colored eyes.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the basilisk lunge at Darren.
She anxiously tried to warn Darren to be careful.
But the next second, her consciousness began to fade into darkness.
"Hermione..."
Darren looked on in disbelief as he slowly turned around, his gaze unfocused as he stared at the petrified Hermione.
Are you my master?
The basilisk's voice rang in Darren's ears.
Darren ignored it and just stared blankly at Hermione.
"You killed her..."
He seemed incredulous, yet also filled with murderous intent.
"I didn't...she was just petrified...Master, someone's coming..."
Master, when will you take me away... I don't want to follow him anymore.
Master, I'm leaving first... Tear him apart... Kill him...
The basilisk's voice moved away from Darren.
Before leaving, it casually hooked Darren's arm with its tail.
hiss.
This guy is actually pretty handsome!
The kind of monstrous disaster like Anaconda.
That's really cool.
However, remembering what this guy had said, Darren still raised his wand.
Someone's here, now we can start pretending.
"I am going to kill you!"
He raised his wand, seemingly with great effort, aiming it at the basilisk's back.
"Blazing Flames"
Avada Kedavra
"Extremely painful"
He shouted angrily several times, but none of the spells worked. He could only watch helplessly as the basilisk disappeared before his eyes.
[Ding, congratulations host for obtaining a counterfeit card]
"Potter, you've killed someone!"
Ernie of Hufflepuff looked at Darren in a panic.
Then, thinking that Darren had killed someone, he blurted it out.
He himself did not expect that he would be so stupid.
He covered his mouth.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I didn't know... I'll leave right now, I promise I won't tell anyone!"
Ernie turned to leave, but it was too late; his shouts had alerted too many people.
"Darren...who is it this time...Hermione!"
Professor McGonagall's eyes widened in disbelief.
She seemed a little taken aback; this time it was Hermione.
"Professor, it's him, it's Darren Porter."
I heard him recite those terrifying incantations with my own ears. He killed Hermione, and now he wants to kill me to silence me!
Ernie said excitedly.
"Last time, Justin was almost killed by Potter because he spoke ill of Potter."
This time too.
I don't know what Hermione did to offend him, but I heard him calling for Avada Kedavra.
He wanted to kill Hermione, but perhaps he petrified her and rendered her speechless because he saw me.
Ernie said fearfully.
He was afraid that if he didn't speak now, he would never have the chance to speak again.
Who made Justin's petrification happen so coincidentally?
He simply believes it was Darren Gan's number nine!

Chapter 270 Darren, your legs!!
"Darren, how are you?"
Professor McGonagall ignored Ernie's words and leaned down to look at Darren, asking with concern.
This child is so kind, how could he accept Hermione being petrified in front of him?
[Ding, detecting a scene where the Father System is active near the host, a temporary task is now issued: Use Father Values to petrify a portion of your leg and ask Professor McGonagall: Why can't I use the Killing Curse?]
[Ding! Quest completed. Skill acquired: Petrification. Do you wish to accept the quest?]
[Receive]
This time, a petrification occurred.
Darren clicked to accept the request without hesitation.
And using 100 Father Points, he petrified half of his leg.
Fortunately, he was sitting on the ground at the time, so that no one would discover anything amiss.
It's more impactful when things are revealed little by little.
Darren blinked.
Then his face turned to despair.
He looked up at Professor McGonagall.
"Professor, why can't I use any lethal magic? I know about the Avada Kedavra curse, so why can't I use it?"
I really wanted to kill it, so why couldn't I?

[bite…]
Darren looked at Professor McGonagall with a dazed expression.
His face was filled with pain.
He clearly saw that guy, so why couldn't he even hurt him?
Why it came out like this?
He should be able to protect his friends since he learned magic, so why did he watch as all his friends got hurt one by one?
"Professor, I watched Hermione turn to stone, and I couldn't do anything about it. I'm so useless."
