Hogwarts: Dirge of Magic

"Yo~ As a genius of Ravenclaw, do you want to come to our dean's banquet?"

Tom, who was also well-dressed, came in front of the three of them. His tone of speech seemed to be praising, but after listening carefully, he felt that he was being eccentric. You are so powerful, and you still come to our college's banquet?

"Of course, your dean invited us to his banquet."

Xifa was not angry, but said to Tom with a smile.

From the eyes of the young wizards behind him, the two of them greeted each other like old friends who had known each other for a long time.

"Huh——" Tom turned his back to the crowd and hummed softly.In this verbal confrontation, Tom was at a disadvantage again.

"Merry Christmas, Sifer, and have a great time tonight."

"By the way, as a friendly reminder, the venue of the banquet has been changed to the auditorium. All students can participate!" After speaking, Tom stepped forward to pass by the three of them.

"Merry Christmas to you too, Tom." Sure enough, Tom's body stiffened slightly when he heard Tom's words.

Fortunately, the little wizards following him closely followed his footsteps, so that he would not appear to be running away.

"Sifer, do you think what Riddle said is true?" Alice puffed her cheeks and said angrily. Now, she can clearly feel the malice of others.Luna also cast her gaze from the side.

"Of course it's true. Tom is a hypocrite, but in front of so many people, he won't deceive us with such obvious lies." Xifa spread his hands and said with a smile. There was malice, and he also had some guesses.

First of all, without the three of us, or in other words, without him, Tom's magical talent should be the highest among the students in this class or even the current school.

He deserves to be the center of attention in the castle.It's a pity that his own appearance dimmed his brilliance a lot.

Fortunately, Tom is not like Sifer, who treats most young wizards like an old father looking after children. He likes to use his appearance and language to gain the admiration of his peers. Even many professors are deceived by his hypocritical face .

I have to say, maybe it's the war, maybe it's the tutoring, many young wizards are still very mature in their thinking.

However, some time ago, Xifa spread his transformation technique widely, and gained the favor of many young wizards.Even, in his social circle, many people were discussing that Tom might not be as good as Xifa.

How could Tom stand it?He cleverly used tricks, coercion and lure to suppress this trend.

However, Xifa is the source of the problem. Only by fighting Xifa head-on and defeating him can he completely consolidate his title of number one in the grade.

Well, let’s not talk about Tom anymore, the scene returns to Xifa comforting the second daughter, and they are about to enter the auditorium.

As soon as he got out of the stairs and returned to the hall on the first floor, Xifa suddenly felt something wrong in his heart.

"The three of us haven't received any news about the change of location, have we?" After listening to Xifa's question, Luna and Alice glanced at each other and nodded.

The professor forgot about us?Or did you just change the location temporarily and didn't have time to inform us?Or are notifications on their way and we're already there?

However, there was already a lot of laughter flowing from the gate of the auditorium on the steps in front of the hall.

It was just a Christmas party, a day when everyone had fun and played together, there were so many messes, Sifa shook his head and smiled.

However, I haven't waited for myself to continue 'driving' towards the auditorium.

Suddenly, a wave of malice suddenly came from the side.

who is it?Have malice towards yourself?Unlike jealousy, etc., this is a naked killing intent.Xifa turned his head quickly, the killing intent still existed, but there was nothing in his vision.

Is it...

The spiritual light exploded in his mind, Xifa took out his wand with his left hand, and then waved his hand, "The compass is flying."

The compass flew out of Elise's satchel.It fell into the right hand of Xifa.

With a thought, the magic circle of sealing the soul and locking the soul bloomed in Xifa's hands.

"I saw you!"

As far as the fluctuations were concerned, a figure appeared in the sight of the three... At first, there was an expression of surprise, but when Xifa saw the blurred and completely different appearance of the figure before, Xifa's smile froze.

The clothes and body shape of the translucent figure in the eyes are exactly the same as his own, only the face is a flat blank.What's this?Want to imitate me instead of me?

As some thoughts flashed through Xifa's mind, his movements, which were already immobile due to his weakness, and he showed a little hesitation, gave the faceless figure enough time to react.

The faceless figure in front of him recognized that Xifa was holding an alchemy weapon that would make creatures like himself suffer greatly.

While Xifa was hesitating, the faceless figure suddenly turned around and ran up the stairs.

Could it be that this is also Dumbledore's calculation? ——There is no life crisis, don't tell me you mean this?I want to chase?Paralyze each other?

Sifa understood some of Dumbledore's thoughts.

Gather all the outstanding little wizards in the auditorium for a hasty party, release all the 'cannon fodder little wizards', and take the opportunity to check who has any abnormal behavior among them.

In other words, the current self should catch up.However, to hide some of the hole cards...

"If you don't verify your identity, don't trust anyone!"

Luna and Elise understood. When they picked up their wands, their blue pupils changed slightly. The bottom of one pupil was covered with black feather tattoos, and the bottom of one pupil was covered with red dragon scales.

In this state, although they couldn't directly see the figure of the Faceless Man, the fluctuation of magic power on one side could hardly escape their eyes.

The second daughter retreated slowly to the corner of the hall. Ogg was not here at this time, and might go out to move a new Christmas tree.

When Xifa left, only the two of them remained in the entire hall.

Outside the gate of the castle was the cheerful noise of a group of young wizards, and elegant music came from the gate of the auditorium on the steps.

The two of them were nervous in the middle, out of tune with the cheerful environment.

The meaning of Xifa's last words was that someone might pretend to be him. According to the agreement, only after verifying that the person released the patron saint can he be believed.Because the Patronus cannot fool anyone.

"Tsk!"

Concentrate on manipulating the transfiguration technique, letting the ground propel him forward, while distracting himself from condensing the Burning Soul Curse.This makes Xifa's grasp of the accuracy of the magic ballistic is not very good.

The spell missed, as expected.However, Xifa's actions also made the faceless figure who had been leisurely and leisurely on the road start to run wildly.

Because the faceless man is sure that Xifa can really see himself, and can also send out harm to himself.

At first, when it saw Sifa, it could only see itself. After running two steps, it stopped, waiting for Sifa to continue chasing it, as if it was playing with Sifa.

But now, although he couldn't see his expression, Xifa guessed that he must be terrified.

Because, the faceless man's escape speed has been greatly accelerated, and he escapes without looking back.

One miss alerts the opponent.

Xifa sighed inwardly, speeding up the creeping speed of the ground. (Refer to Lissandra - Funny)
