Chapter 100 Testing

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The morning sun is rising, and the warm sunshine shines into this almost dead city.

Xifa and Elise strolled on the rooftop, enjoying the breeze blowing on their faces, feeling a sense of transcendence.

boom--

A gunshot rang out suddenly, scaring Elise so much that she trembled.

She subconsciously grabbed Xifa's hand first. After realizing that there was no danger, she relaxed her tight heartstrings and slowly melted herself into Xifa's back to soothe her heartbeat.

Xifa had no choice but to stand there helplessly and let Elise adjust her mentality.

He patted Elise's hand, giving her support and encouragement.

But his mind drifted far away.

It's the sound of a shotgun.

The softness behind my back is very intoxicating, but unfortunately this is not a safe place.

Xifa frowned and thought about it, that was a residential area, and there were people shooting here?

Generally speaking, shotgun bullets are slower than the speed of sound.

Xifa was still very satisfied with Elise's previous behavior of subconsciously casting an armor spell on herself after hearing the sound of gunshots.

After a long time, Elise took the initiative to let go of her arms, combed her messy hair, and Xifa wiped the tears from her eyes.

After praising and encouraging Elise again, the two decided to go to the source of the sound to find out.

When they arrived at the scene of the incident, the two of them fell silent.

This was a little beggar, no more than ten years old by visual inspection. At this time, he was skinny and skinny and had fallen on the stone roadside. There was a pool of blood under him, but his left hand was still clutching a rag bag.

Through the holes in the bag, Xifa saw white bread dyed red.

"Wait! It's hopeless..."

Xifa, with his quick hands and quick eyes, took action and went to save Elise.

"Then I'll collect it for him..."

Elise was silent for a moment and continued to move forward, but Xifa still held her hand and wouldn't let go.

She looked at Xifa with some confusion, and saw some helplessness on Xifa's face. Elise looked in the direction Xifa pointed, and saw a gun barrel emitting dark smoke in the sun on the second floor of the villa.

luster.

After calming down, Elise noticed that the blood stains under the beggar's body extended intermittently to the wall of the villa.

"This is a thief!"

Most of the sympathy in Elise's eyes disappeared instantly.

"yes..."

Xifa saw more.

Under the mobilization of war, except for remote mountain villages, generally small towns like this will have unified management personnel.

But now, there is no official trace in Western France.

And consider that there is a magic school here.

Perhaps, what is adopted here is a small-scale autonomous system.

It seems that the situation is not optimistic.

...

After this little episode, I was speechless all the way.

"So... how many juniors and juniors are we going to invite to Hogwarts?"

When they were about to arrive at their destination, Elise, who had walked all the way with her head downcast, spoke up and broke the silence.

"this..."

Xifa kept walking, but frowned when he heard this.

"Huh?" Without waiting for the expected answer, Elise quickened her pace and came to Xifa, stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Xifa's eyes.

"Don't know what to say... at least one!"

Obviously, Elise was not satisfied with this answer, and she puffed up her face pretending to be dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Xifa laughed. After thinking about it, he simply took out a few letters from his arms and handed them to Elise.

Elise also hurriedly caught it. After flipping through it, she found that there was only one admission notice, and the rest were invitations to admission.

"Four juniors and juniors!"

"They are all signed by Principal Slughorn, and they can all enroll in Hogwarts~"

Only young wizards who have received the notification letter have the qualifications to branch into the four major colleges and can study in the four major colleges. However, the young wizards who have received the invitation letter can only study in the outer college. Of course, they can also refuse Hogwarts and choose other magic schools.

Xifa certainly knows what the invitation is for.

"Of course I know that there are four young wizards invited to enroll, but our task is to bring all the young wizards here back to Hogwarts!"

After saying this, Elise understood, and Xifa didn't know how many little wizards there were here!

After all, these four are little wizards who have just turned eleven years old, and the rest is hard to say.

"Anyway, we will know everything once we meet them!"

Xifa saw Elise's erratic eyes, and he spoke.

Indeed...Elise nodded, but then she thought of something, "Xifa...isn't our most important goal to find Eileen and the others?"

"How can you be so arrogant? Then I said that our goal is world peace and enjoying life carefree..."

Xifa rolled his eyes.

...

While joking, Elise swept away her melancholy look, and she and Xifa finally arrived at their destination - the Madman Theater.

"Oh, I was still thinking, people outside are stealing food during the day, and the road leading here doesn't even smell of blood. It turns out to be a Muggle banishing curse!"

This magic is very common, it is to drive out people who do not know magic. Generally, little wizards in fourth or fifth grade will cast this spell.

Xifa gave Elise a look to tell her to wait where she was, and stepped forward. After standing somewhere, he stretched out his hand to test until a ray of light flashed through.

Xifa immediately retracted his hand, looked at Elise behind him and nodded.

The only protective magic here is the Muggle Repelling Charm, which means that their shouting voices will be transmitted in.

Upon seeing this, Elise volunteered to be the shouting microphone. After all, generally speaking, girls' voices are more approachable.

She cleared her throat and cast a sound-amplifying spell on herself.

"Is anyone there?! We are representatives of Hogwarts! We invite everyone to go to Hogwarts to learn magic!"

The sound only echoed within the confines of the Madman Theater, but... no one answered.

Xifa frowned and wanted to use detection magic, but suddenly, he thought of something and gave up the idea.

In front of Elise, Xifa found the admission notice again. As expected, the address on it was still very detailed.

"Mr. Hamari Lars hiding in the cupboard behind the door! Do you still want to enroll in Hogwarts?"

Elise's tone was cheerful, while Xifa was naturally stern.

The so-called etiquette before fighting is nothing more than this.

However, there was still no movement.

Um?

Xifa touched his chin, and at the same time, Elise also came to Xifa's side.

"Is it possible that Irene and the others are here..."

This sentence reminded Xifa! Originally, he was still wondering whether the people inside didn't believe them, but he really didn't think about this situation for a while.

He touched Elise's head to show his approval.

Then, his expression became solemn, and the magic power in his body began to flow surgingly.

In addition to lighting up his dragon eyes to find strange magic power, he also strengthens all his senses to detect strange smells from the outside world.

Behind the crack in the door, there was a strong smell of blood!

Some are rotten and some are fresh. This is the taste that can be condensed over many years!

Xifa immediately made a gesture and asked Elise to protect herself!

Then, Xifa released his magic at the door in front of him without hesitation.

boom--

Even the blasting spell condensed by silent means is still very powerful.

The gate, which was reinforced by magic and made of more than a dozen thick logs, instantly fell apart under this blow.

After the explosion, sawdust flew everywhere, the earth trembled, and the sand on the ground was thrown up into billowing smoke.

Unexpectedly fragile…

Although Xifa felt a little surprised, he was not in the mood to wait for the aftermath of the curse to dissipate.

He raised his hand and shook it, and an invisible vortex appeared in the sky in front of him.

The dust and sawdust flying around were immediately attracted to it and condensed into a ball in the blink of an eye.

Xifa waved lightly and threw it behind him, greeted Elise, surrounded by blue fire, and rushed into the theater aggressively...

Thanks...oh no! You have Elise to thank!

If she hadn't insisted on following me, you wouldn't have had the chance to cry in front of me!

On the stage not far away, Elise was busy coaxing six children.

Xifa was leaning on a pillar in the front, with his arms folded across his chest and one foot propped on the ground, as if a stranger was suddenly approaching.

Under the stage not far in front of him, several teenagers were discussing something in low voices.

Finally, an older brother was pushed out by them, and he came to Xifa's side with some stiffness.

"Hey! Brother! Your girlfriend is really good at coaxing children!"

This is a guy with freckles on his face, pale skin, and yellow hair.

Under Xifa's gaze, his eyes swept around.

It has to be said that Dumbledore has done a good job in terms of reputation. Even these small magic schools recognize Dumbledore's friendliness.

The smell of blood is real, and Xifa is definitely human blood!

However, when he broke in, other than catching these trembling little guys, he didn't find anything else unusual.

Then after they revealed they were from Hogwarts.

They all breathed a sigh of relief, but the six children were not very sensible because they were too young.

When the oppressive atmosphere was gone, they began to cry loudly.

"hehe..."

Xifa felt that something was wrong with this guy's eyes, he seemed to care about Elise.

But Xifa would not take the initiative to do anything. After all, Elise is charming, and it is normal to receive such looks.

Unless it was an unbearable dirty look, Xifa and the others were too lazy to take action.

Moreover, Xifa knew that Elise did not put any effort into coaxing these children, she just fed them candies mixed with joyful agents.

By the time all six children had candy stuffed into their mouths.

The crying sound disappeared.

Seeing that the scene had calmed down, Xifa clapped his hands and attracted the attention of seven people including Elise.

Facing everyone's gaze, he took out a few letters.

"Hamari Lars!"

Naturally, the first person Xifa called out was the junior student who had received the admission notice.

"I am..."

A skinny little boy responded timidly.

Xifa glanced at him and then looked at the admission notice in his hand.

Sure enough, the address on the admission notice is in front of the stage, in front of the auditorium...

It seems that there is no imposter.

Under the delighted eyes of his junior classmate, Xifa handed him the letter.

As for the remaining invitations, Xifa kept them.

"Congratulations! We are alumni from now on!"

"Don't be discouraged, my remaining friends, Mr. Lars, you can choose a companion with magical talents to study with you at Hogwarts!"

Hearing this, the little boy's brisk fingers froze.

He raised his head and faced Xifa bravely. From Xifa's star-like eyes, he saw that he could not veto it.

Hamari Lars turned sideways silently and looked at his little friend with a heavy expression.

Xifa, on the other hand, was playing with his fingers seemingly carelessly, with streaks of flames constantly passing through his fingertips.

But the focus of his sight was always observing everyone's every move.

This hesitation and entanglement does not seem to be an act, and there is no Imperius Curse or other magic on Hamari Lars that causes the conflict between his soul and his body.

It seems...

Glinton's whereabouts are unknown before they arrive here...

Xifa's heart suddenly became heavy.
