Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

Dean's hunch was correct. Gormlaith Gaunt was definitely not an easy person to talk to.

After she came from the valley and saw Dean standing with Aesop, her expression immediately changed: "Who are you? How dare you enter my place!"

Aesop hid back in fear and introduced in a low voice: "Aunt, this is Mr. Andy White..."

"I didn't ask you!" Gormlaith roared with a fierce face, making Aesop tremble.

"Gormlaith Gaunt?" Dean confirmed.

"You know my name and you dare to break in?" Gormlaith snorted and said with pretense of regret: "What a pity, you missed an opportunity to beg for mercy. If you had barged in accidentally and begged, Maybe I can let you go..."

"Thank you for your kindness." Dean smiled lightly, "I don't think you can keep me here."

Gormlaith raised her chin and glanced at Dean, forced out an ugly smile and said to Aesop: "Aesop, dear, come to your aunt quickly, how can you talk to strangers casually? I told you , that would be dangerous.”

Aesop looked at Dean cringingly and said, "I don't think Mr. Andy is a bad person..."

Gormlai sneered: "You have only met a few people, can you tell the difference between good and bad? I tell you, this man is a dirty bastard, and I will never allow you to have contact with him!"

"Gormlaith, watch your words!" Dean got a little angry.

"Am I wrong? You must not be a pureblood, right?" Gormlaith said firmly.

"How did you tell?" Dean was a little curious.

"Our Gaunt family is the descendant of Salazar Slytherin. Our ancestors taught us how to distinguish pure blood." Gormlaith said with a little pride.

Dean understood clearly. Obviously, this unknown secret method was exactly the same as that of the Sorting Hat. It is said that Slytherin specially gave the Sorting Hat the ability to identify blood in order to prevent people with impure blood from entering Slytherin House.

"Gormlaith, I don't care about your rude words, but I remind you that Aesop has reached the age to enter Hogwarts, and you cannot prevent her from enrolling." Dean said, "I have handed in the admission notice. Gave it to her."

After hearing this, Gormlai suddenly changed her color: "How dare you? How dare you! I will never let her go to Hogwarts!"

"Aunt, why?" Aesop interjected in a low voice.

"Hogwarts is full of descendants of Muggles, and now they advocate egalitarianism - this is contrary to the ancestral precepts of our Gaunt family... Besides, the professors there now are just a bunch of losers, it is better to learn more at home. "More." Gormlaith said with hatred.

"I don't belong to the Gaunt family..." Aesop defended in a low voice.

"Your mother is from the Gaunt family, and half of your blood belongs to the descendants of the great Slytherin!" Gormlaith's eyes were filled with anger, and she wished she could immediately give the disobedient Aesop a Cruciatus Curse.

Unfortunately, the unpredictable young man in front of her always kept Aesop behind her, intentionally or unintentionally.

As soon as Dean arrived here, he removed the curse that Gormlaith had painstakingly arranged nearby. This ability to do it with ease made her fearful and did not dare to act rashly.

She must find an opportunity to strike, an opportunity to kill with one blow.

"Then you should let Aesop go to Hogwarts, where there is Slytherin House to inherit his legacy." Dean tried to persuade.

Dean wanted to fulfill Frentzen's promise in the least labor-intensive way: as long as he brought Aesop to Hogwarts, he would help predict how to repair the time-space converter.

So now Dean doesn't want to cause trouble, he just wants to complete the task quickly and leave.

The rewards of the development mission: The Legend of Ilvermorny are certainly attractive, but for Dean it is more important to repair the time and space converter to return to the original era. If he had to choose one, he would definitely choose the latter.

"Hogwarts has become degenerate and has admitted so many students of Muggle descent... As a direct descendant of Morrigan and Salazar Slytherin, Aesop can only interact with people of pure blood, never Will go to a 'dangerous' place like Hogwarts!" Gormlaith stubbornly refused.

"I heard that it seems that you were once a student of Hogwarts..."

"I'm deeply ashamed! If I have to choose again, I will never go to Hogwarts." Gormlaith gritted her teeth.

"It's such a pity. Your current thoughts prove that Hogwarts' education for you was not very successful." Dean shrugged.

At this moment, Gormlaith took advantage of Dean's momentary distraction and raised her hand to cast the Avada Kedavra.

Dean was well prepared for her sneak attack. After avoiding it easily, he shook out a wand and said, "Expelliarmus!"

"Stupid boy, do you think you can challenge me with this level of magic?" Gormlaith waved her wand to deflect the disarming spell.

"Interesting." Dean's pupils shrank slightly. In the future, when facing attacks from magic spells, he would usually use counter-curses to remove them or simply dodge them. He had never seen Gormlaith kill the magic spell directly with a wand. Techniques for blocking curses.

Seeing that Hunting Heart was so happy, Dean immediately gave up his initial idea of ​​a quick victory. He prepared to start a protracted battle with Gormlaith, trying to see if he could use the system to directly deflect the magic with a wand during the battle. Learn the techniques of mantra.

Next, Aesop saw a magical battle like a dream: splendid magical light criss-crossed between Dean and Gormlaith like the brightest fireworks; spells containing terrifying magic were violently outside the circle. The collision caused a wave of air that seemed to subvert the entire earth.

Aesop had never seen such a fierce magic battle, but as a layman in the magic world, she still saw some clues: Gormlaith's spell was undoubtedly more powerful. After her spell fell on the ground, it always It can create big craters; on the contrary, Dean relies on his superb spellcasting skills to compete with Gormlaith: after his spell is empty, there is almost no chance of landing on the ground, and it will quickly dissipate. Occasionally, The few fish that slipped through the net only made a few shallow pits on the ground.

Dean, who seems to be winning by skill on the surface, seems to be at a disadvantage by the powerful Gormlaith, but Aesop always inexplicably feels that the final winner must be Dean.

Soon Aesop realized where his confidence in Dean came from: it was not that Dean could always avoid Gormlaith's spell in dangerous situations, but that it lay in the trap on the ground that trapped Aesop. lock up.

No matter how the situation changes outside the circle, Aesop has not encountered any danger inside the circle. Even if some powerful spells are inevitably shot in her direction, she will always remain silent when she is about to approach the circle. The sound disappeared without a trace - whether these spells came from Dean or Gormlaith.

Aesop concluded from this that Dean was playing a cat-and-mouse game. Just looking at this circle that could withstand all spells, one could tell how powerful Dean really was.
