Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts

Lost island, ruined castle.

"boom!"

The thunder was like a Titan's whip, falling from the sky and lashing the world. The rain clouds that lingered all year round condensed into round raindrops the size of eyeballs, which hit the decaying surface of the castle hard.

"boom!"

The sound of rain became louder and louder.

"Squeak."

The firelight on the corridor wall swayed violently driven by the rotten wooden door, and Charles came to this damp, dark room that exuded the smell of decay.

"boom!"

The lightning flashed across and illuminated the only iron-barred window at the top of the room, the size of a human head, revealing a vague figure in the room.

It's Maleficent.

"flutter!"

Ciel took off the extinguished torch on the wall, blew it gently, and the magic ignited it. The flames rose, and the sudden light plunged them into darkness for several days. The lack of light made Maleficent unconsciously squint. Eye.

But she didn't want to show her timidity in front of Charles, so she forced herself to remain motionless.

Ciel put the torch into its holder.

She was in the same posture when she was imprisoned a week ago, and she is still in the same posture now. The only difference is that she looks much more embarrassed now.

There is still a slight odor on the body.

But Ciel didn't dislike it. He took a few steps forward and sat next to Maleficent.

The latter was obviously in a daze and did not expect Ciel's movements at all, but she quickly calmed down and raised her chin slightly.

"whatever you want."

"You will all be disappointed today."

A sneer appeared on Maleficent's lips.

"Not always."

The old god Charles is here.

"The protagonist's rhetoric is always useful, just like you... the villain is always a failure."

Maleficent frowned slightly, and she keenly noticed something in Ciel's words.

"What did you say..."

"What is the magic you use to reverse time."

Ciel asked.

Maleficent suddenly became silent, but her expression was very proud.

Magic has always been her specialty. Although she is a demon dragon and is better at large-scale attacks, she is actually better at large-scale magic.

Maleficent, reverse time...

Theodora knew this, so she was the first to wake up Maleficent. Only when she wakes up can they have hope.

Ciel did not continue to ask, because the magic of reversing time was not his goal in the first place, and this topic was just an introduction.

"You reverse time, so everything that happened in the past is like an open book to you, and you know exactly how the story is going to go next."

"Kill the prince in advance, eliminate the threat invisible, control the princess, and no longer use that loophole-filled conspiracy."

"It's a pity that I stopped all this first."

"Then guess why."

Maleficent looked at Ciel. She had already guessed this. Even in the previous battle, Ciel didn't say anything personally, but he basically admitted it, that is...

"You have reversed time and know everything about the past."

"Then you must be able to understand that there is another person who has reversed time and is familiar with everything about you... Just like you know every move of the princesses, he also knows every move of yours."

"As expected, you also reversed time."

Maleficent said every word.

The wizard in front of her was definitely the most powerful opponent she had ever seen. Unlike those single-minded justice princes, he anticipated almost every move they made and saw through their hidden secrets.

If those stupid princes and princesses in the past had to go through all kinds of hardships to escape the disaster when faced with her endless conspiracies, although she was unwilling to do so, she reluctantly agreed, but this person was just taking advantage of her. It's just a fluke of some kind of prophetic skill.

After realizing that the opponent was just a little mouse hiding in hiding, Maleficent decisively chose the strategy of violent attack.

No matter what the other party knew, she didn't care and directly chose the final battle.

But it's a pity that Charles is better at playing tricks than Yishou. When comparing pure strength, he is still better.

"No no no."

Ciel waggled his fingers.

"To be precise, I didn't reverse time, I saw the future."

Maleficent nodded slightly.

As a powerful witch, her understanding is naturally not bad, and it is clear why Ciel emphasizes this, because the difference between the two is huge.

Reversal means that Ciel has experienced again and again, and seeing means that he only needs to make a choice.

It's a world of difference.

But then Maleficent snorted again.

"Then have you seen..."

"No matter what you say, you're not going to get anything from me today."

Ciel smiled and continued without refuting.

"In fact, the future I see is not just one, but countless."

"I peek into the future again and again, and make choices again and again...what do you think this is for."

Maleficent said nothing, her expression still arrogant, but her eyes were also filled with curiosity.

"It's about choosing a good future."

"A future of success, a future of victory, a future where everyone... survives."

"You, me, everyone."

After the words fell, Ciel stared at Maleficent with piercing eyes, as if he was seeing a like-minded senior.

Unable to stand Ciel's pretentious gaze, Maleficent said helplessly.

"The future sounds... really miserable."

"But you talked so much nonsense, just because you want to get something from me, what you want."

"Not what I want."

"But what you want."

Ciel asked rhetorically.

"You read the last story."

“Look back at your past and what do you see.”

"Princess, your daughter, with the help of various companions, animals, or other creatures, or maybe by chance, defeated your plots and your stupid men again and again."

"what is this."

"Watch them, do you think... the protagonist in the legend, the protagonist of the novel, can always save the day from danger, always win the final victory, and get a happy ending."

"In that case, what about you?"

"If there is a protagonist, there must be a supporting role. If there is a hero, there must be a villain, and you."

"That's the villain."

"Fail again and again, always fail, never succeed, because... you are a villain."

Ciel's voice was getting lower and lower, and he was getting closer and closer to Maleficent. He had long used the bubble spell to block the smell, and didn't care about the turbid air here.

He leaned close to Maleficent, as if whispering in her ear, making the latter flinch slightly.

"This is... destiny."
