The tree monkey frog started to sound the alarm again.
Although under his own command, the tree monkey frog did not hum.
However, the red light constantly flashing above its head made me feel particularly anxious.
He thought that this was the pressure brought on him by Western France.
In fact, the information Charles received was slightly biased.
The shadow told itself that two little wizards came out of the castle, but it didn't say who they were.
Charles self-righteously identified it as Xifa, Luna and Ogg.
In this ambush, in addition to personal grudges, the consultant also gave himself a task as important as hunting the ball escape bird, which is to kill Luna and Xifa.
Thinking of this, Charles felt annoyed. Why didn't he capture the ball first?
As long as he takes away a batch and kills the remaining ball escapers in Hogwarts, even if he gives up his mission as a consultant, he will still have merit.
But it is precisely because of his greed that he is afraid of killing the ball and evading birds, so that the two of them dare not leave the castle. That is why now he has to bite the bullet and delay the time.
Do you want to use evil black magic with huge side effects?
What I am good at is commanding magical animals to fight, rather than fighting in person.
Now that I am weak, I may not be able to defeat Xifa head-on, let alone an adult wizard.
While Charles was waiting and reflecting on himself, a whistling sound came from above.
Who is it?! It passed over my head before I had time to pay attention.
Charles finally made up his mind to buy time and use evil black magic if there was a fight.
Once he failed to complete a task... he glanced at the swastika tattoo on his arm with a complicated expression.
But after waiting for a while, no one entered the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest. Charles's dead eyes lit up with hope again.
According to his estimation, his men will arrive soon.
————————
Until she saw Luna and Elise safe and sound, Xifa's hanging heart finally fell.
Jumping off the broom, Xifa took the broom and came to the three of them.
Luna and Elise were very wary at first when they saw someone coming on a broomstick.
But when they saw Xifa's anxious expression and eyes, they knew that the person coming was really Xifa.
Without saying hello to the two girls, Xifa took out his wand and pointed it at Ogg after landing.
"Are you with the people who caused trouble in the castle?"
"A dark wizard broke into the castle?" He was not afraid of the shadow, but Ogg was worried about the safety of the castle.
"Xifa...unicorn!" Luna saw this and spat out a few words incoherently.
Oh, yes, the unicorn recognizes Ogg...
"Sorry, Mr. Ogg. I was impulsive." Xifa apologized sincerely, Ogg waved his hand and didn't care.
Feeling a little embarrassed, Xifa quickly changed the topic.
"What's going on?" Xifa asked the two girls what happened and why they sent an emergency call for help.
Luna and Elise briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter.
Taking advantage of this, Xifa also drank a bottle of stamina potion.
There is only one broomstick, which cannot carry four people.
And although there was something strange in the forest when he came, he was not attacked.
Xifa thought for a while and felt that Ogg's analysis made sense.
"Don't panic, if the centaur has really attacked here, he is bluffing. Even if not, if he wants to eat the four of us, he is not afraid of breaking his big teeth."
Luna and Elise opened their mouths but didn't say much...
"Yes, we have to break back. If a fight breaks out, don't worry about me and just leave!"
As an adult wizard, Ogg naturally feels that he should stay as a queen.
Xifa thought for a while, if it was the same person who attacked him in Hogsmeade, Ogg, as the guard of the Forbidden Forest, would have no problem dealing with these creatures.
Charles will be held back by himself, and the rest of them will return to the castle safely.
Even after studying in the past week, my strength has improved significantly. If there is a chance, it is not impossible to kill Charles here.
After discussing countermeasures for various situations, they entered the land outside the Forbidden Forest.
At the same time, this step also stepped on Charles' heart.
Because neither his men nor the pets behind him can help him.
As for me, most of my abilities are in my pets. Except for black magic, my other magic is at the level of an average adult wizard.
He put down the little pet that was reporting the situation to him.
Charles stood up, and there was a voice in his heart, urging him to delay for a little longer.
——————————
Horse hoof prints disappeared here, and half of the strong horse people disappeared here out of thin air?
Xifa was alert to his surroundings and observed the ground at the same time. Through perception, he discovered that there were some messy traces of spellcasting around him.
It should be that a lot of restoration spells and other repair magics were released, but the techniques were rough and in a hurry.
From the outside, everything looks safe and sound, but once you step into the outer reaches of the Forbidden Forest.
Upon careful observation, these traces are extremely conspicuous.
This is not the place where the centaurs really died. Maybe the enemy was afraid that Ogg would catch him when he was weak, so he hastily cleaned up the battlefield and ran away.
This was just Xifa's optimistic thought. This thought disappeared as a wave of magic came from the front of his head.
Xifa suddenly raised his head, and everyone followed his gaze and cast their eyes on the branches.
I saw a man wearing a black windbreaker and a mask with a grimace suddenly appear on this thick branch.
He looked down at everyone condescendingly, and Xifa recognized him. He was the Austin Charles in the Empire of Shadows who claimed to be in Hogsmeade Village.
"Cypha Corwin, first-year Ravenclaw, Muggle orphan."
"The directors of Hogwarts are all pure-blood nobles. You can't learn truly advanced magic. Do you want to consider joining us?"
"As long as you are qualified enough, we will open the law to you (blocked)"
Charles saw Xifa nodded slightly. His mind was a little stiff and he decided that Xifa had this idea and that he was as eager to learn 'advanced' magic as another Muggle freshman.
But he never thought that three curses would fly directly towards him.
"Ice Soul Spear"
"Expelliarmus"
"Crackling explosion"
"Whoosh——"
Following the three magic spells was the crossbow arrow sent by Ogg.
Years of licking blood from a knife's edge refreshed Charles' spirit.
Subconsciously dodged the ice spear thrown by Xifa.
A donkey rolled to avoid the disarming spell directed at him.
But the explosion curse was hit on the branch under his feet.
Ogg lost his balance and fell to the ground while trying to maintain his balance.
But the tree monkey frog on his shoulder didn't have so much luck.
Ogg's crossbow nailed it to the tree trunk on one side.
Ogg is very aware of the shortcomings of tree monkey frogs.
Although it can sense danger, as long as multiple malicious sources appear at the same time, it will interfere with its ability to make correct avoidance decisions.
"Charles, since you know me, you should know that Albus Dumbledore is my teacher. How could I agree to your invitation?"
He spoke jokingly and looked disdainful, but Xifa's eyes were fixed on Charles.
If Charles shows any sign of guilt, then Ogg will take the two girls and leave first.
If you stay here to break off the aftermath, there is no barrier here. As long as you want to leave, you can easily get rid of Charles's siege by teleporting.
"To—"
Charles took a mouthful of blood, and his mouth was scratched by a branch on the side when he landed.
"I didn't expect Hogwarts students to do this kind of sneak attack."
He said unforgiving words.
"Each other -" Xifa was not to be outdone.
...
"I really don't think about it..." Charles had a 'friendly' exchange with Xifa, and Charles, who was in a daze, finally accidentally exposed his flaw.
"Let's go!"
Xifa shouted without hesitation, waved his wand and fired a series of disarming spells.
***The author has something to say***
I finally let myself look past it... I almost asked for leave because of the different logic -.-
