Hogwarts The Dark Arts Awakening

On the third floor of Hogwarts Castle, in the trophy display room where countless souvenirs are collected, two groups of people stood facing each other.

"You came."

Harry Potter stared at the person in the darkness and spoke slowly.He and Ron had been waiting for a while, and both began to wonder if the other party was afraid to come.

"Yes, here I am."

The person walking in front among the later visitors raised his head, revealing a pale face. It was Draco Malfoy, who had made an appointment with Potter tonight.

In the prize display room at midnight, the four people stared at each other and looked at each other speechlessly.They were just children, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Crystal glass cabinets are lined up in the room, shining in the moonlight.The trophies, shields, medals and statues contained within bloomed with the brilliance of gold and silver, intertwined.

After a brief silence, Malfoy was about to say something.He had passively gained a lot of experience in dueling recently, and he felt that he could arrange this wizard duel initiated by himself.

However, the fifth person on the field didn't think so.

"Very good, everyone is here. It seems that this duel can start smoothly." A clear male voice suddenly sounded in the room. The timbre sounded very pleasant, but to the four people at this moment, it was really only frightening.

who is it?

Potter and Malfoy looked around in panic, fearing that something might suddenly appear in the darkness, such as the castle administrator Filch or a certain professor.

In fact, if the two sides were not enemies of each other and neither side wanted to be underestimated by the other side, they would probably have run away.

Looking at this scene, Jerry smiled and lifted the [Disguise Curse] on himself, and the cold magic power that clung to his body and concealed his figure dissipated.

In the darkness, Jerry appeared at the south entrance of the prize collection room and waved to the four classmates who were still immersed in surprise, "Good evening, everyone!"

"It's you!" "Jerry?" "Gunt!"

Everyone spoke in unison.

Well, not really that synchronized.

Although they were all surprised by the identity of the visitor, the attitudes and words of the four people were not consistent: Harry was surprised with a bit of intimacy, Ron was slightly suspicious, and Malfoy was surprised and uncertain.

As for Crabbe, he had just come to his senses and his face was full of confusion.

"Yes, it's me." Jerry nodded, "I heard you were going to duel, so I came over to take a look."

"How did you know?"

"What are you here for?"

Gu Chu</span>Malfoy and Weasley's questioning voices sounded almost at the same time. Apparently, the answers they just heard failed to clear up the doubts in their minds.

Jerry was not surprised by their reaction. There was no tacit understanding between the two of them, and what he said was so simple. It was surprising that they could understand it.

"Do you think the auditorium is some kind of hidden place? We all agreed to a duel in public during dinner, how do you expect it to be kept secret?"

Jerry first answered Malfoy's question with an unceremonious rhetorical question, then looked in Harry's direction and continued to answer: "I'm here to be a referee, and maybe I have to be a doctor once or twice."

"Isn't that true? We don't know many magic spells now. At best, we just put a few sparks in front of them." Ron scratched his head, with a worried look on his face.

He understood the implication of Jerry's words - maybe someone would be injured in this wizard duel.After thinking about this, the expressions of others also became serious.

"It's hard to say, not to mention the possibility of sparks shooting into the eyes, and the risk of an accident caused by chanting the wrong spell during a duel is not small. If anything happens, I can handle it at least as long as I'm here."

When saying this, Jerry deliberately put on a serious look to help the two groups about to duel realize the necessity of referees and doctors.

Hearing this, Harry instinctively thought of what Ron said before - 'If you die, I, the assistant, will take over! 'He was already a little nervous, but suddenly he became even more nervous.

Draco recalled the fear of being dominated by the 'Duel' during this time, and the shame of being forcibly treated after each defeat.

Jerry was always measured in his actions and rarely used lethal spells during private duels at school.Even if he accidentally injures his opponent, he will promptly use [Heal as before] to treat the aftermath and never leave any tangible evidence on others.

Therefore, even though Malfoy had lost confidence after a series of failures and no longer wanted to fulfill the daily duel agreement with no hope of victory, it was difficult to find a teacher to intervene.

The teaching work at Hogwarts is quite heavy, and the main professors are all very busy people.Regarding disputes between students, teachers with limited energy are almost unable to stop conflicts that break out in public.

As for the various troubles behind the scenes, generally speaking, as long as they don't cause too much trouble, they won't attract strong intervention from the teacher. At most, they will deduct a few college points.From all kinds of prank props, discriminatory remarks to private curses to hurt people, it's almost all within this range, and it can be regarded as a major chronic disease of Hogwarts.

In short, Jerry achieved his goal, and both sides of the duel accepted his uninvited referee and first aid on the field.

"First of all, please ask the two duelists to bow to each other as a courtesy according to tradition." Jerry performed his duties as a referee with great enthusiasm, feeling as if he was playing wizard chess with a living person, and it was a limited edition with a special character.

Harry and Draco, who were under his command, the former reluctantly bowed, while the latter just shook his head, obviously neither of them were very willing to salute the other.

"Okay, let's ask the two duelists to assume a common dueling posture," Jerry paused, seeing Harry's hesitation and scolding him, and then added: "Just hold the wand in front of your chest, like an arrow."

Harry quickly raised his arms as instructed, Draco sneered disdainfully at this, and the two glared at each other again.

Jerry ignored the two people's anger and continued to give orders: "Very good, the countdown begins, one-two-three-"

Before the referee finished speaking, the two duelists started fighting without hesitation, looking at each other as if they wanted to beat their opponents hard.

This time, Draco cunningly took the lead and acted illegally when Jerry said 'two'. Green sparks were thrown out from the tip of the hawthorn wand.
