?"of course."

Hermione squinted at Ethan. She could feel Ethan hesitate to say this, so she continued to ask.

"Since I am a friend, shouldn't there be too many secrets between them?"

"What do you want to know?"

Ethan knew that Hermione had doubts about her identity.

"Are you really from an ordinary family?"

"No."

Ethan swiftly admitted that he was not ordinary. Before he used a fake identity to get into Hogwarts, he had been honest for more than half a year after he was full, and then he just wanted to do whatever he wanted, and he didn’t mind that his true identity was compromised. Discovery.

The reason for not telling Hermione and others is also very simple, because they haven't asked before.

Hermione opened her mouth, and her little head couldn't understand why Ethan hid her identity and entered Hogwarts.

"Does Professor Dumbledore know?"

But she quickly grasped the point.

"of course I know."

Hearing this, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief. Dumbledore knew Ethan’s identity, which can prove Ethan and the others are not bad guys-but there is no way to really be sure, because these are all Ethan said, if Ethan is Lie to her?

Believe or not? Hermione decided to trust Ethan first.

As I said before, she regarded Ethan as a friend, and she was willing to believe what Ethan said in her heart.

"So, who are you?"

She finally asked the question she wanted to ask a long time ago.

With Miss Know-it-all holding a book when she is fine, she has understood all kinds of situations in the magic world, and she has realized that Ethan's identity is definitely not simple.

It is difficult for many adult wizards to easily defeat a fire dragon. She even suspects that Ethan actually used some medicine to pretend to be a child entering Hogwarts (the truth is).

Considering that Dumbledore knew Ethan’s identity, could it be...

"Is it related to... that person?"

Hermione never shy away from saying Voldemort's name. She didn't say it here because she was worried that it was in the corridor of the school. There were a lot of people coming and going, and she was afraid of being heard by others.

"Reluctantly."

Ethan himself didn't bother to talk to Voldemort, but now he had a tacit understanding with Dumbledore. Considering what would happen next, he really wanted to meet Voldemort face to face last time.

Hermione looked around, with an expression of ‘I understand’, and stopped struggling with this question, but started asking about other things.

"Your real name is Ethan Arundel?"

"My real name is Ethan."

"Arendale?"

"A casual surname."

Hermione looked at Ethan curiously: "What is your real last name?"

"No."

"No? How could it not?" Hermione couldn't understand what Ethan meant, wondering if he didn't want to say it at all?

"Why is it impossible? Not only I don't have one, but Skaha doesn't have a surname.

Hermione opened her mouth, and she suddenly thought of a question: "Could it be that all of you are..."

"There are still some differences. Rin and Leah are real children. Illya may be a little older than her appearance, but not much older."

Hermione’s head became confused. She found that the identities of the group of Ethan were covered with layers of mist, and the curiosity in her heart was thoroughly aroused. She very much wanted to get rid of the mist, knowing everything Hidden information.

I turned my head and looked around, trying to find a suitable place to talk, but found that most places have a bunch of students at this time. Besides, Ethan is quite popular recently. I will attract attention wherever I go. I want to have a quiet conversation. It's pretty difficult.

"Come with me."

Ethan knew what she wanted to do, and beckoned her to follow her.

After walking for a while, Hermione recognized where Ethan was going.

"Professor Snape's office?"

"Yes it is."

"Why are you going there?"

"Aren't you looking for a place that won't be disturbed? I can't think of a more suitable place than there."

In the entire Hogwarts College, Professor Snape is definitely the most disliked professor by students. He is cold-faced all day and has extremely strict requirements for grades. He is the incarnation of the devil in the eyes of students, even if it is a Slytherin student. Most of them are in awe of him.

So Snape's office was an absolute forbidden place for the students. No one would run to this place with a full stomach, and would not even want to approach it-for fear of being caught by Snape.

"But..." Hermione immediately understood the key: "Professor Snape also knows?"

"Of course I know, otherwise, how could I get so much convenience?"

When Ethan said this, Hermione immediately understood why Ethan was so comfortable living in Slytherin. There was almost anything he wanted. Snape never criticized him even if he was not in class. It turned out that Snape never criticized him. It's also an insider.

"No wonder."

When he came to Snape's office, Snape was about to go out. When he saw Ethan, he was taken aback. He was about to ask Ethan what he wanted to find himself, and then he saw Hermione who was following him.

With the most commonly used cold face, Professor Snape, the first acting artist at Hogwarts, posed as if he usually faces students.

"What's matter?"

"Lend your office to use it." Then he waved his hand and motioned to him not to pretend: "Hermione has noticed my identity."

"That's it."

Although there was no change in his expression, Snape's temperament and tone of voice immediately changed. This change made Hermione wonder if he was dazzled? How did she feel that Snape seemed very polite and respectful to Ethan?

Thinking that maybe he had read it wrong, he saw Snape reopen the office, then respectfully stepped aside and invited Ethan in.

"..."

Hermione followed Ethan into the office sluggishly, and then heard the sound of the door closing behind her, and she turned her head to find that Snape hadn't come in.

"..."

Turning his head back again, Ethan sat casually on the chair behind the desk and motioned to Hermione to sit casually, as if this was his office.

"tea?"

"No thanks."

Seeing Ethan's skillful move, An Jingjing was automatically flying out of the tea set placed in the cabinet, and then began to make hot tea as if someone was operating it.

When Hermione sat down, Ethan spread his hands.

"What do you want to ask, I promise I won't hide it."

Hermione sat on the chair as if the chair was uncomfortable. She moved her leg slightly, then moved her leg to the other side. She changed it back within two seconds, and finally she finally asked if she had made up her mind. There was a problem of my own.

"Who are you?"

Almost the same question as before, but this time it means something different.

Hermione would ask again, because she had been thinking about it for a long time, and after thinking about it, she realized that she didn't know where to start, but she could only ask again in the end.

"This question is not very easy to answer. It depends on which aspect you want to know? My identity? My position? Or something else?"

"Identity!"

"A mage who is striding wildly on the road to becoming a god, and who has achieved a little bit at the moment-in short, a slightly more powerful mage."

Ethan briefly described his identity, but his previous adjectives still made Hermione's mouth open and unable to close it.

"Become a god?"

This is not what shocked her the most, the next sentence "Achieved a little bit" is even more shocking?

"Aren't you kidding me?"

"No."

Hermione looked at Ethan's face, still a little unable to believe what Ethan said.

"It's normal if you don't believe it. In fact, it's normal to think of gods as possessing powerful magical powers, and their own life forms have also evolved, with stronger qualities and strengths and longer lifespans, and maybe you can accept them faster. "

"I still don't think I can believe it." Hermione rubbed her cheeks. Today, she always opened her mouth in shock, her cheeks hurt a little: "If you tell me now that you made up those things to lie to me, Maybe I still find it easier to accept."

"But what I said is true."

As she continued to rub her face, Hermione had an expression of "I have given up".

"Is there anything else that shocks me?"

"I'm not from this world, does this count?"

"Water?"

After a brief explanation of his origin, Ethan looked at Hermione who had fallen into a sluggish state, took a sip of hot tea calmly, and spit out Snape's taste really bad enough by the way.

After drinking a full cup of hot tea, Hermione slowed down a little bit. The brain that crashed due to the influx of too much information in an instant finally returned to normal. She stared at Ethan with big eyes, and kept thinking about the past few years. Some of the details that happened when getting along, I found that many things that make people feel a little strange all have reasonable explanations.

For example, apart from Ethan's guardian, the guardians of the other classmates have never appeared, and no one has contacted them.

Logan transferred and left very suddenly-because he had had enough~lightnovelpub.net~ and didn't want to come again.

She also understood why Tosaka Rin often appeared some strange magic theories, and why she had good theoretical results, but always had problems in actual operation.

Skaha is very good at Rune...because she is the legendary Skaha?

The truth turned out to be like this.

"This is really...too hard to believe."

People who thought they were friends and classmates had such amazing identities, and comparing these information, Ethan said that he was running wild on the road to becoming a god. It didn't seem that incredible.

"So... you travel around, and the goal of learning all kinds of knowledge is to become a god?"

Ethan touched the teacup with the remaining warmth, looked at Hermione whose worldview was collapsing, and stepped on the ruins.

"In a sense, I am now."
