Chapter 344: 'The Second Sin”

Chapter 344: “The Second Sin”

Stephanie’s pale face was a little rosy, and there was a cry in her voice.

“I didn’t mean to approach you with bad intentions. At first, I really wanted to make friends with you.”

Her sudden emotional outburst caught Sean off guard, and he didn’t even react.

Even if the thing that happened in the Room of Requirements in the first grade was deliberately done by Grindelwald and Stephanie, he doesn’t care about it now. After all, he was not harmed in any way, and he even got something from Grindelwald and Dumbledore.

It’s just that, after staying with these two old men for a long time, he would unconsciously begin to analyze the hidden meanings of various things, even though those have no deep meaning at all.L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

However, Stephanie’s reaction was beyond Sean’s expectations.

In front of her, Stephanie completely lacked the cold demeanor she used to keep people away. The ponytail’s rubber band loosened, her bright silver hair was messily draped around her waist, and the bear’s pajamas were crumpled to her body.

Stephanie’s fists were clenched, and her chest was heaving and flushed. There were tears in the corners of her eyes.

“I know you hate me because of that, but I don’t know how to apologize to you.” Her voice grew louder, and her tears fell to the ground like beads.

Sean frowned.

Stephanie yelled at him as she cried, “I want to make up for my mistakes. I want to do something to help you.”

Sean’s brows frowned even tighter.

Stephanie didn’t look like a high-cold fifth-grade senior at all. Instead, she looked like a willful and crying little girl. Most importantly, she seemed overly excited.

Sean sensed something was wrong. He and Stephanie hadn’t seen each other too much before the Monocle incident. He only smiled and said hello when they saw each other and chatted if they were close at mealtimes. In other words, Sean was always like this to his Ravenclaw classmates.

Sean is special to Stephanie because her Veela blood does not influence him, so she wants him to become an assistant of the Wand Club.

Because of this, the two communicated more. But compared to Hermione, Harry, the Weasley twins, and others, the two are not close friends.

After that, there was the incident of the monocle. Sean could not confirm whether Grindelwald was malicious at the time, so he was always on guard, and Stephanie suddenly became someone he didn’t like.

Sean thought that Stephanie approached him with a strong purpose from the very beginning, which he didn’t like very much. Under Sean’s guard, the relationship between the two deteriorated further or in other words, there was no more communication after that.

This made Sean feel very wrong.

A person who could figure out the truth about the Room of Requirement in her second year, Stephanie’s intellect was beyond doubt. Moreover, as a spy placed in Hogwarts by another school, it is impossible to do this.

If she calmly apologized, telling herself about the specific situation at the time. Sean would accept her apology frankly. After all, he and Grindelwald were also in the same mind. Sean had imagined this before entering the room, but he thought it was something Stephanie would do.

But here comes the question, so why is Stephanie acting like this?

Without Sean’s response, Stephanie burst into tears. She knelt down like a child and even stumbled over the beanbag sofa she had placed. She got up from the ground while crying. Her forehead and nose were all red. However, Stephanie knelt on the ground, crying where she fell, and apologized to Sean.

“I really don’t mean to watch you at all times. But Grindelwald told me to do it.”

“It’s also the first time I’ve received Christmas presents from other people.”

Stephanie cried even more, “But I haven’t received any gifts since then.”

Sean wanted to repel that power, and something even more surprising happened to him.

The magic power from Stephanie was not hindered in any way.

That power seemed to be something Sean could control by nature. He didn’t feel any malice or discomfort. What he had was a sense of satisfaction and innate intimacy.

He has felt this magic before. Sean looked at Stephanie in shock. She lay softly on the ground. She whispered and approached Sean.

“Sean. I’m yours. I’ve always been yours.”

Sean finally knows why he doesn’t reject this force. That night in Paris, the thing in his body was released. Sean regained his clarity at the last moment and felt the huge magic power. The essence of the magic power escaping from Stephanie’s body is exactly the same as the thing inside him.

She has the same thing as him, and the charm she was no longer affected by just now came into effect again, proving her identity.

Stephanie has “Lust”.

There was no time for Sean to think about why all this happened. Even though she had come to her senses, Stephanie was still in a dazed state, and the magic power in her body was still pouring towards Sean.

Sean understood one thing. If he didn’t care about Stephanie or even continued what he didn’t continue just now, then all of Stephanie’s power would not affect him.

However, Sean didn’t hesitate at all. He directly took out his potion from the ring and gave it to Stephanie, who was already in a daze. Sean’s movements made Stephanie cough violently, but she still held onto Sean’s arm tightly, allowing the liquid to flow out.

“Sean...” Stephanie was still murmuring in a low voice, slurring her words.

Right now, she has swallowed more than the normal dose, but the overflow of magic power is still continuing.

“One more sip.” Sean gave Stephanie another sip.

He pulled away her arm that was holding him and cast a spell on her directly.

“Petrificus Totalus!”

Sean has a bit of experience in dealing with people. He knows that if that person loses consciousness now, it may lead to more serious consequences, so that spell is the best choice.

After two more than normal doses, as well as the spell to control her movement, the magic power around Stephanie finally gradually dissipated. Sean retreated to the door and observed her changes.

It wasn’t until ten minutes later that Sean lifted the spell on her. The magic power did not continue to overflow. Sean heaved a sigh of relief and looked over at her, who was a little dizzy.

“Do you need another sip?” He waved the potion bottle in his hand.

Stephanie’s chest rose and fell rapidly; she raised her head to look at Sean, and her voice finally stopped. “I don’t think I need another more; I almost...”

Sean leaned against the wall and folded his hands on his chest, “Why did you suddenly become like this? What did you do, or what happened to you?”

Stephanie frowned, grabbed her collar, and whispered, “I don’t know why my emotions have been magnified like this. But thank you, Sean...Wallup.”

Sean also frowned. Could it be that this was a sign of that Lust awakening inside her, and she just happened to meet him?

Because he can be sure that Stephanie’s power is transmitted to him. Probably because of the self-awareness of Pride within his body. He feels that this is harmless to him and it will not even strengthen the Pride in his body.

The only problem is that if the magic power is completely poured out, Stephanie will disappear from this world without a trace.
