"Xifa, the duel has begun!" Elise just said.
Cedric waved his wand violently!
"Expelliarmus!" he shouted.
Since Xifa didn't immediately admit that he was a coward, it wasn't a big deal to attack first.
In the eyes of the wizard at this time, about the duel.
If the challenged person does not refuse or gives up, then the challenger can completely treat it as a duel. Especially, the witnesses have all demonstrated witness etiquette.
I was underestimated for such an obvious method of casting spells!
The two of them cast spells across the dining table. Xifa was unable to make timely evasive actions due to his physical disability.
So, he cast a powerful iron armor spell.
Two magic spells met in the center of the dining table, and the clash of spells emitted a brilliant light visible to the naked eye. All the little wizards had to close their eyes.
Xifa thought that he would have to work harder, but he never thought that Cedrick saw that he had used magic.
Cedric took advantage of the fact that the three professors could not see his face, and showed a strange smile to Xifa.
Scarecrow! Xifa was horrified! How could this smile be exactly the same as that of the Scarecrow?!
Before Xifa could suppress the turmoil in his heart.
Cedric suddenly stopped his magic output. Caught off guard, Xifa pushed his magic spell over.
At this point, Xifa immediately realized that this was a trap! Although Xifa withdrew the Iron Armor Curse in time.
However, from the point where the two magic spells collided, a black magic spell emerged and hit Cedric.
Cedric immediately fell to the ground twitching.
He did not make any wailing sound, but his strange face and the rapid withering of his limbs made the little wizards present hold their breath. This scene cast a shadow on their souls. They were all stunned, and the scene was filled with chaos.
Silence.
"Dumbledore!" Matthew was stunned and yelled. Ignoring Dumbledore's threat, he stood up and rushed over.
When the other little wizards he brought saw this, they rushed towards Cedric Griffin.
Dumbledore also seemed surprised. Slughorn tugged on Dumbledore's sleeves and asked softly what to do.
Dumbledore didn't answer him, he seemed to be planning something...
"Don't touch him! It's a curse!"
When Xifa saw that a young foreign wizard was about to reach out and touch Cedrick Griffin, he quickly reached out and stopped him.
"Why!? I knew you were a black-hearted evil wizard just like the rumors! Otherwise, how could you kill Char..."
The sound stopped suddenly. Matthew Peters thought it was a curse released by Xifa.
He was shouting at Xifa. Unexpectedly, Xifa immediately waved his magic wand.
Under his deliberate suppression.
An almost lifelike lizard patron saint appeared in front of everyone.
Although the curse requires evil thoughts to support it, it is completely feasible to inflict evil thoughts on the offender in order to protect the existence that one cherishes. After all, Xifa discovered that the success or failure of the Patronus Charm has nothing to do with happy memories.
No matter how happy the memory is, a heart without protection cannot summon a patron saint, so the key to the success of the patron saint spell is protection.
However, it is generally accepted in the magic world that the Patronus Charm cannot be successfully released immediately after casting the curse.
What's more, this curse was really not cast by himself. Therefore, Xifa's patron saint curse was successfully cast, and everyone stopped blaming him for casting the curse.
The most direct reaction was that the little wizards present no longer looked at him with the fearful expressions they had just seen.
Matthew Peters couldn't find the words to blame Xifer for a moment. Even if he said it, it would be useless. Blaming Xifer would not make Cedric return to normal.
Matthew Peters pushed away Durmstrang's little wizard who was bewildered around Cedric Griffin.
He took out his wand, pointed it at Cedric Griffin and muttered something.
He cast magic one after another, but Cedric Griffin's condition did not change at all.
Unwilling to give in, he tried more spells. After all, Cedric Griffin was one of the best students of Durmstrang's generation.
If he suffered an accident because he was taken out of the banquet.
The most optimistic scenario is that his political career will stop rising because of this incident, or he will even lose this official status.
Under normal circumstances, he will definitely die a violent death, because the young wizards in Durmstrang's school are all nobles... they will never let him go!
Although Cedric was not a student at Hogwarts, seeing his peers suffering such pain, the little wizards at Hogwarts all sympathized with him.
In their praying eyes, one spell after another was cast on Cedrick Griffin.
Finally, a remote curse-breaking magic worked.
Matthew Peters, who was tired and sweaty, twitched the corner of his mouth and was about to smile, but saw that Cedric Griffin's physical condition deteriorated faster after this meal.
So, he had no choice but to bite the bullet, get up and go to Dumbledore, who had just been scolded loudly by him. He bowed his head and admitted his mistake to the greatest white wizard today.
I glanced at Matthew, who had changed his attitude to being groveling.
Dumbledore nodded expressionlessly. He quickly came to Cedric Griffin and waved the wand in his hand lightly.
The dark curse lines on Cedric Griffin's body evaporated instantly under the golden light of this curse.
All the little wizards in Hogwarts cheered for their great Professor Dumbledore, and even many little wizards in Durmstrang applauded him.
The pale-faced Cedric Griffin, who was lying on the ground, slowly and staggeringly got up amid applause.
He shook his head, as if he didn't know why he was here.
Fortunately, he still remembered who his classmates were and allowed his friends to pull him aside and start asking questions.
It seemed that he had no memory of what had just happened. Xifa frowned.
Wait! Soldier, portal, ball escape bird...
Could it be that someone has an idea about the portal at Hogwarts? For example, sabotage it? Just to contain us?
Later, Dumbledore said that he would keep his trump card, and he also said that he would attend the banquet...
He wanted to solve this problem by himself, while he stayed here.
Xifa was a little unbelievable, but he subconsciously turned his attention to Dumbledore.
Dumbledore seemed to know what Xifa was thinking, and he nodded imperceptibly.
Xifa understood instantly. No wonder Dumbledore allowed himself to eavesdrop on their conversation and also said some incomprehensible words to himself.
But, professor, why don’t you make it clear?!
Wait, where is the portal? I don’t know?
It seems that Xifa’s doubts are seen.
Dumbledore came to Xifa.
Patted Xifa on the shoulder and said to him.
"I'm sorry to make you experience this farce. If you feel tired, you can go back to Ravenclaw's tower first. If you can't sleep, the view of the starry sky at night from the top of the tower is also very good."
"I'm here, continuing to hold the banquet with Horace. When it's over, maybe we will meet by chance on the rooftop."
Xifa understands.
In Ravenclaw's astronomy tower, where the teleportation array is located, he may have a tough battle within his capabilities.
***The author has something to say***
Why don't you say it? It's because if you say it, it will be predicted. Anyway, that's how I set it up for the time being. Hum~
Why didn't Slughorn follow because he needed to help Dumbledore stop the little wizard, while Dumbledore went after the faceless figure in case there was another scarecrow curse?
Wait for a ‘King of Understanding’ to explain better!
