Chapter 246 Crash

PreviousBack to directoryNext
"By the way, where is Professor Dumbledore?"

This is Professor Dumbledore's office, and Xifa feels that he needs his help.

So Xifa asked Luna. After all, she had a way to enter the office, and she might know the professor's movements.

"The Professor left Hogwarts yesterday. He left Fawkes with his tail feathers and told me that his office could serve as a temporary shelter."

Luna still looked a little sad, but also a little happy.

She was sad that she had to use the office so quickly; fortunately, she and Xifa entered the office safely.

"What happened again? Professor Dumbledore left Hogwarts again?"

Xifa knew that there was a high probability that it was a war, but he really didn't know the specific reason.

"Here, look at this."

Luna heard Xifa's confusion, and she quickly put her hand into her sleeve. After rummaging around, she took out a newspaper.

Xifa hesitated for a moment before stretching out his hand. On the way, he saw the pattern of phoenix feathers on the corner of the newspaper.

Only then did he speed up his takeover action.

"Is it a coincidence?"

After reading the content in the newspaper, Xifa murmured.

Luna did not answer, she was afraid that her thoughts would affect Xifa's judgment.

This year, the German Ministry of Magic launched a "lightning" offensive. The wizarding world called it the "White Lightning" plan.

A few days ago, around April 9th.

The German Ministry of Magic successively captured the Ministry of Magic in Denmark and Norway, and the people of these two countries began to be ruled by the militaristic policies of the Shadow Empire.

Faced with accusations from the global wizarding community, the Shadow Empire ignored it.

Start attacking the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg before May 10th.

Now, after risking visits by frontline wizards, it has been determined that the Ministry of Magic in these three countries has fallen.

The lives of its people have been shrouded in shadow.

Fix things at Hogwarts, and then have Dumbledore worry about the lives of students instead of going to the Maginot Line in France?

Obviously, Dumbledore will not let the small lose the big.

For the greater good, he would sacrifice himself without hesitation.

"When were the tail feathers given to you?"

"Let me think about it...the day you went to Hogsmeade!" Luna checked her memory for a while before giving Xifa's answer.

"so long..."

At this time, Xifa was not sure whether Dumbledore knew what happened in the school.

"Well, you find an excuse to have a night's rest with me tonight."

Xifa pondered for a moment and then asked.

"Have you learned the breath-containing magic among elf magic?"

"I'm not very skilled... I can walk, but I can't run and run at the same time." Luna looked a little guilty.

Xifa sighed and stroked her hair to comfort her.

This is not Luna's fault. Elf magic requires not only talent, but also a state of mind. Years of living as a semi-orphan made Luna very strong mentally, but there is a huge gap between herself and herself who has been influenced by the culture of the ancient country.

It can be said that if Xifa had not been using the Palace of Thought to simulate the cultural scenes of ancient countries intermittently these days for Luna to gain insights, now she would not even be qualified to get started with elf magic.

"It's not a big problem, we shouldn't need to chase." If we chase Elise, it means we have been discovered, and it doesn't matter whether we use the breath gathering magic or not.

In this way, Xifa decided to go on a night trip that night...in order to verify that Elise was framed, or to rescue Elise who was being controlled.

——————

After dinner, Luna made a random excuse and occupied Xifa's place that night.

Elise and Cassandra each smiled knowingly and parted in the hall.

Following the large group who returned to their dormitories to rest after dinner, they went back to the common rooms of each college.

Breath-holding magic cannot make oneself transparent like the Phantom Body Curse.

The effect of this magic is to use the free magic power in the air to cover up your own breath.

Basically all detection magic will fail. The general way to crack it is to see the caster with your own eyes or to use most of the magic to fill the entire space.

But obviously, Xifa would not walk carelessly in the aisle, and the person under observation would not be able to burst out magic power to attract the attention of the professor who stayed at the school.

After midnight.

The castle was shrouded in moonlight, and the hooting of owls could be heard from time to time in the quiet night.

At the top of Ravenclaw's tower, the flames on the torches kept beating.

From time to time it shines on these little guys hiding in the shadows outside the window.

I thought it was a calm night like usual.

However... the door to the Ravenclaw common room slowly opened.

'Elise' walked out of it with a quick pace, and then quickly walked down the steps of the tower.

Her steps were brisk and she was humming an unknown tune.

It seemed that this was not the first time she walked this road, so she did not even look back at the sculpture behind her.

Ever since she stepped out of the common room door.

All her actions and behaviors fell into the sight of two people.

It's Xifa and Luna.

The two of them hid behind the eagle wings next to the door knocker. Xifa watched everything with a solemn expression, while Luna covered her mouth and tried her best not to make any sound.

"Let's go, follow."

Xifa gave Luna a wink, and the two of them walked around the stairs while Elise walked through a circle, that is, when 'Elise' came directly below the two of them.

The two of them followed her pace and walked down from the tower little by little.

Arriving on the first floor, I followed 'Elise' through the corridor and quietly climbed into the window that had been opened earlier on the first floor, avoiding the sound of the door opening.

Just like going downstairs, follow the steps of 'Elise' and climb the stairs step by step.

On the seventh floor, 'Elise' stopped.

She turned her back to the stairs and faced the wall, as if she was admiring something.

At the corner of the stairs, Xifa quietly poked out half of his face. 'Elise' didn't move, and neither did Xifa.

Behind Xifa, Luna, who didn't know anything, nervously wanted to poke her head to see what was going on, but Xifa stopped her with her hand. She was so anxious that she really wanted to stamp her feet.

Suddenly, 'Elise' moved.

Xifa was shocked, thinking he had been discovered.

Just when he was about to quickly look away, he found that 'Elise' was just lowering her head and groping for something on her waist.

Fortunately, it was at the waist. Xifa knew that there were pockets on Elise's clothes. Otherwise, Xifa would have petrified this unknown existence even if he was trying to be exposed.

A paintbrush?

She looked very excited, and the paintbrush kept turning in her hand, drawing dizzying tracks.

Wait...paint brush!

Most of the energy was still on surveillance, and Xifa didn't react at first.

By the time he reacted, 'Elise' had already raised her hand to pick up the paintbrush and painted tiny traces on the wall of the corridor.

After the paint dries, these marks perfectly match the original texture or gaps.

Even Westerners cannot see it with the naked eye after knowing it.

The point is not what the effects of these unknown textures are.

Now Xifa finally reacted.

The person who gave herself nightmares during the summer vacation, killed Jack, and made Abraxas Malfoy stupid was actually Elise! Or, it was an unknown entity controlling her.

In shock, Xifa's breath-containing magic failed.

At the same time, the careless "Elise" suddenly stopped moving in her hands.

She slowly turned her head, as if she had known that this day would come, and she showed a slightly familiar smile to Xifa.

Long hair and a childish, feminine face did not prevent Xifa from thinking of Brent Fergus before he died, and he also had such a smile.

It seems that again, look, I'm back again...

boom--

"Thank you, Luna."

Thanks to Luna, seeing something was wrong with Xifa, she directly released the Ultimate Curse in front of her.

Resisting an unknown magic that was casually sent out by Elise.

The sound of the explosion also woke Xifa up.
