"Thank you for your help, Xifa. If you hadn't resisted the monster's self-destruction, our mission would have ended in failure."
On a pier on the French coastline.
The Auror captain expressed his gratitude to Xifer, who was slightly shorter than him.
At first, he didn't believe that Xifa's strength was as strong as the rumors.
But he is a staunch Dumbledore supporter.
Learned that Xifa was Dumbledore's successor.
He volunteered to accompany Xifa to France.
I thought it was the senior taking care of his junior, but in the end he was helping me.
He thought that even if he knew that the sea dragon was going to explode, there was nothing he could do to protect others.
In that case, his only chance of survival was to use phantom to avoid the explosion.
Although there are unique advantages in using water magic at sea.
But the thick wall of ice completely enveloped the side of the cruise ship.
He thought that without long-term chanting and guidance, he would not be able to perform magic on that scale.
Even if the scale is reached, the intensity is far inferior.
Xifa obviously saw that the enthusiasm and gratitude of the tall wizard in front of him were genuine.
Although the wizard in front of him was unusually talkative, after learning that he was a Gryffindor, Xifa was glad that he did not hook up with her and call her brother.
Westerners are not afraid of dealing with strangers; they are afraid of strangers becoming familiar with you.
In this dark age where people are almost cannibalistic, Western France is basically wary of everyone.
Accompanied by the Auror Captain, West Fa walked out of the dock.
Then he hurriedly made an excuse saying that he was in a hurry.
Xifa took out a motorcycle from his pocket, got on the motorcycle and started it in one go.
After the wizard waved goodbye.
Xifa turned on the gas, and under the setting sun, accompanied by the roar of the engine, he disappeared around the corner of the street from the wizard's sight.
——————
A mountaintop in the Alps is covered with snow.
Suddenly a black shadow appeared, a little black in the white, so conspicuous.
But there are few people in the Alps, let alone on the top of the mountains.
So Xifa appeared here unabashedly.
At the foot of the mountain, there is a large canyon that Muggles cannot enter or see.
With Xifa's current eyesight, he can easily see distant scenes.
There are lingering clouds and mist, green trees, green grass, a few flowers, and even some unknown small magical animals active in it. It looks like a good place to settle down and relax.
Xifa rubbed the ring that had lost the emerald in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
I finally found this place.
The ring on his hand is exactly the ring on Cassandra's hand.
However, the emerald that Lady Diana had stored was taken down at this time and left with Cassandra.
This ring clasp is the key to entering and opening the seal.
And that emerald is the sealed object that hides the function of the ring buckle.
Three keys are needed to completely open the sealed place and expose it to the outside world.
But to enter it and temporarily unlock the seal, a key is enough.
"Xifa, even with your current magic power, it is estimated that you can only temporarily break the seal for half a day."
"Before you unlock the seal, you crush this stone and a message will be received here. We will prepare holy water as quickly as possible and rescue Elise."
"What I want to warn you is that if you do this, you will bear unpredictable consequences and pay an unpredictable price."
...
This warning is nothing more than preparing yourself to pay the price.
No matter how heavy it is, can I still give up saving Elise?
Taking a deep breath, Xifa no longer hesitated. On the top of the mountain, he jumped and went straight to the center of the canyon, where there was a lake the size of a football field.
Around us, the color of the mountains changed from white to gray, and then from gray to dark green. Finally, the strong color in dark green gradually dissipated, and emerald green gradually became the main color of the environment.
Suddenly, Xifa felt the ring on his hand warm slightly, and then it passed through an invisible film.
This seems to be the space magic of elves.
Unfortunately, Xifa didn't have time to fully appreciate the dislocation of traveling through space just now.
Falling rapidly in the air, he quickly took out his wand and cast magic to cushion the force of his high-speed landing.
As we approached the lake, the falling speed was as fast as the cherry blossoms falling in the sky.
Seeing the lake close in front of him, Xifa stretched out his right hand without a wand and snapped his fingers.
On the calm lake, a round ice floe gradually formed from where Xifa settled.
Xifa gently stood on it, causing ripples to spread in all directions.
When the ripples calmed down, Xifa also calmed down inside.
He took out the first resonance ball and crushed it.
Across the English Channel, in the Hogwarts Castle far away from me.
In Dumbledore's office, on the most conspicuous fiery red shelf in the room, the resonance ball that was a pair in Xifa's hand, symbolizing the successful arrival at the destination, was broken simultaneously.
After waiting for many days, Luna and others heard the movement. After being stunned for a while, they let out a long sigh of relief.
They knew that Xifa had arrived at the sealed place.
Quickly crush the resonance ball to confirm receipt.
Then they checked the required magic materials over and over again, and practiced the tedious steps of the purification ritual again and again.
They would immediately purify Elise as soon as they waited for the resonance ball to release the Western magic seal.
The resonance ball that confirmed the reply shattered in Xifa's hands.
Calculating the time, it was only about ten seconds before I crushed the first ball.
Xifa calculated the time for Luna and others to pay attention and send back the information.
I feel that the delay is within the acceptable range.
After all, Lady Diana said that she had entered a small world.
There may be errors in the resonance ball, and whether it can be transmitted by other means is a problem.
But now, the resonance ball can transmit information in time.
Then he would not appear, and he would undo the seal foolishly, and Luna and others would not know that the seal had been untied.
It's not a big deal if you miss an opportunity in vain, just recover your magic power and try again.
What I am afraid of is the accident that Lady Diana mentioned.
Those remaining magic circles, magic equipment, etc. may have been functioning before the sealing, but after the sealing, they became wonders in the Muggle world.
Once you unlock the seal yourself.
Even if it's just a short moment.
Those remaining magic circles will cause unpredictable consequences.
But Xifa decided to put aside those unforeseen consequences for the sake of Elise.
After all, Dumbledore's note also hinted that he should face the consequences and take the initiative to break the seal.
The secret room...is this secret place.
Because the ring on his hand is the key to opening this 'secret room', coupled with the time and space barrier.
This secret place can of course be regarded as a secret room!
