HP Bella's Lie

48 - Crazy Copper Nut

"The four students have performed well. Although the magic taught in Charms class is the most common and simple, they are far more powerful than you imagine." rt concluded, and then walked out of the podium, facing the entire Hogwarts Lobby, "Next, I'm going to demonstrate these four magics myself. ... Don't worry, before that, tell me which magic you think is the least powerful?"

Amid the weeds of feedback noise, rt accurately picked up most of the responses.

"Oh... of course, of course you would think so, the Levitation Charm. And then? ... The Spring Curse, and then... the Armor Charm—so, you think the strongest is the Fire Charm."

RT was not surprised by this result.

"Even grown wizards would probably choose that," he said indulgently.

The three senior members of the Knights listening in the background and Dumbledore, the leader of the White Wizard, all felt a little curious - even if they were asked to rank, the ranking of the four magics would not be much different.

Zeroye, the author of the senior spell textbook, looked at Dumbledore, who had the highest level of magic attainment present, met his eyes unexpectedly, and saw the inquiry in each other's eyes at the same time.

They shook their heads together.

Xia Feike didn't understand, and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Greenglass (Zeroje), how do you think the Lord will arrange?"

Zeroje said: "I don't know. I haven't seen the whole picture of the lord's magical attainments so far. Even if I rearranged it, it would at most just switch the rankings of the Blazing Fire Curse and the Clear Spring Curse... But the lord asked a special question, and the result It won't be that simple."

Dumbledore said with a smile: "The opportunity is rare, let's quietly watch Tom's demonstration in person."

His words silenced the backstage.

rt pressed a finger to his lips and began the demonstration.

The audience was silent, holding their breath.

Invisible magic fluctuations spread around the man with black hair and red eyes, washing over the audience.Some of the teachers and students here were sensitive to the birth of magic, but they didn't see anything unusual.

"Armor Curse." Rt said softly, and the voice miraculously rang in everyone's ears.

He was not seen to draw out his wand and say the spell.

It's a wandless spell.

"In order for you to feel this magic, I have to make some noise..." The corners of RT's lips curled up, and evil spirits leaked from the corners of his eyes slightly squinting at the backstage, "Principal Dumbledore, please forgive me. "

There was no trace of forgiving sincerity in his tone.

When his gaze returned to the lobby, the heat wave that soared into the sky burned the entire lobby red like lava!

Hogwarts was instantly in flames, and the audience exploded with a bang, only to find themselves unscathed in the flames when they panicked.There is an invisible defense between the body and the frenzied flames - it is the previous armor spell.

"Fire Curse."

The man's unhurried voice came late, and instantly restored the silence in the lobby amidst the sea of ​​fire.

All are waiting for the next magic.

"Calm down."

The clear water falling from the sky fell vertically like a waterfall, and the high dome of the lobby seemed to be connected to a huge reservoir. Endless springs gushed out from every corner and fell straight into the sea of ​​flames.In a few breaths, a catastrophic sea of ​​flames was completely extinguished.Before everyone could be amazed, the water from the Spring of Heaven has become several times more ferocious these days, accumulating in the entire lobby at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The doors and windows of the castle were not closed tightly, and the accumulated water kept running out, but it still couldn't keep up with the rapid increase of the water level!Almost as long as it took to put out the fire, the stagnant water had already reached the adult's chest.As for the immature little wizard, he was completely swallowed by the spring of heaven early on.

But they just sat there calmly, looking around with magical eyes——

Just like in the sea of ​​fire, in this real sea of ​​spring water, they breathed unimpeded at the bottom of the sea.An invisible membrane cut them off from the water three inches, through which air from nowhere circulated without any danger of life.

Because of the function of the diaphragm, every little wizard feels the wonderful experience of being underwater.The clear spring water is separated from the people around, and the face of the little friend seems to be covered with a veil, ethereal and clear.The sparkling light of the water waves spreads all over the lobby, making people feel like falling into a dream.

Having seen enough of the spectacle in front of them, everyone's eyes turned back to the man standing in the middle of the high platform, with enthusiasm and anticipation.

Rt raised a hand, and at some point a copper nut appeared between his knuckle-shaped fingers.

A magic emerged in the minds of everyone——

Floating spell.

Under the scorching gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, the copper coin with beautiful metallic luster slowly flew up in that white palm, and twirled playfully around the slender fingers a few times. rushed to the roof--

The reason why the audience can know its whereabouts is due to the spring water that has filled the entire lobby, and a column of air that goes straight to the dome is pierced by the excessively fast copper coins.

The first column of air hadn't completely dissipated, and the same column of air stretched across the bottom of the water in an instant, like a spider's web!

Next, there were crashing sounds from all directions, followed by the sound of water waves breaking through the dam.

It wasn't until half of the water flowed out that people realized that the lobby had been horribly damaged.There was a big hole in the dome, and the surrounding walls were full of cracks, and water rushed out from the broken gaps, breaking down half of the wall.A white light flashed, and the decorative pillars in the lobby were pierced through.Obviously, the instigator of all this destruction has not stopped making waves.

The little copper nuts are like high-speed bullets, rushing through the lobby, chandeliers, seats, floors, stone pillars, armor...all invincible.Only when it hits the armor spell on a spectator, will it bounce back and change direction in the violent shock, leaving a little wizard in shock to continue his unscrupulous destructive behavior.

It wasn't until all the stagnant water was gone that this crazy copper Knut reappeared in rt's palm.

The people present baptized it with incredible eyes, but the copper coin circled cheerfully between the man's fingers unconsciously, and finally fell slowly.

"Levitation spell."

The man's mellow voice spoke leisurely.

……

……

Standing on the vast limestone ground, Bella looked at the huge monster in front of her.

"This is...the plane?"

The front desk took her hand and nodded.

"Let's go, you'll be in trouble if you don't make it in time to board the plane."

The huge machine made of steel stood motionless in the wind. Bella's long curly hair was lifted by the mid-autumn wind. The giant steel beast weighed heavily on the vast airport like a fortress.

This thing... can fly?

Bella doubts that even the presence of the Darklord may not be able to make it float, let alone ascend to high altitudes!

With the huge roar of the engine, the lumbering steel monster started off on the long runway.

Bella sat by the viewing window of the first-class cabin, watching the surrounding scenery gradually recede and gradually get farther and farther away, and it took a while to finally accept the fact that she was flying.

"It really flew!" The girl said in an incredible tone.

The crowd turned into dense black spots, until they disappeared completely, and the fields and hills merged into a green square, until the clouds wiped everything into an invisible white.

After the initial novelty wore off, Bella quickly got tired of looking at the stereotyped window scenes.

"So it's so boring to fly high in the sky." Bella said, "It's all clouds!"

The front desk took out a world map: "It was just for traveling. By plane, we can cross a hundred English Channels in just a few hours."

He pointed to the Atlantic between the British Isles and North America.

"See? We're going to fly across this whole sea to another continent."

Bella was amazed for a moment.Immediately he was dissatisfied and said, "Can't you also do direct apparation?"

The front desk touched his nose in embarrassment: "Actually... I'm a Muggle."

Bella's eyes seemed to see a unicorn rolling in the mud: "Are you kidding me!"

"It's true... I was brought into Hogsmeade by Riddle using wizard means."

"...Why did he do this? Speaking of which, he forced me to give up Darklord's speech, where is he now?"

Facing Bella's pressing questions, the front desk replied according to the memorized lines: "Because Riddle wants to show you, including me, this flight, the destination in North America...these are all part of his true identity. And He himself is already in North America ready to tell you about his life."

——Is that really all right?

Obviously, the front desk has not been able to achieve such a thick skin, and the lie that has been drafted a long time ago is extremely guilty.Even Bella could sense his lack of confidence.

But she plans to settle the score with someone after Qiuhou.

So he showed a pure smile: "I see."

—How much more angry can you make me, Mr. Mystery?

……

……

In order to hurry up, after "telling everything with actions", he ended his speech with a few words.Leaving behind a group of teachers and students who have not yet recovered from the shock, they left without nostalgia.

"According to the agreement, all audience members are unharmed. The rest will be left to you, Principal." Passing by Dumbledore who came to the stage with a wry smile to clean up the mess, he smiled wickedly.

As for Dumbledore having a headache standing on the stage and clearly seeing what the hall was destroyed into, that's not his concern.

The staff of the Knight Newspaper arranged Ye Qi's carriage outside the secret passage, got in the carriage and flew away from Hogwarts.

Never had I wanted to leave Hogwarts more than now.Because the person who symbolizes home is waiting for him——

just him.
