Harry Potter: A Certain Ancient Rune Professor of Hogwarts (TL)

Chapter 484



Harry raised his wand towards the cheetah that sprawled on the ground with a pained expression – a keen sensory ability made her suffer – and he debated whether to make a move, he kept telling himself that it is a competition, and as long as they get the trophy, they have won. But another voice told him that he is taking advantage of someone and Nona had given him a talisman before …

At this point, Nona came to her senses, she took a deep look at Harry, before picking up the trophy, and turning around to run.

Harry hurriedly intercepted, “Expelliarmus!” The spell missed. Harry felt remorse, what the hell was he thinking just now? This is a competition, such a good opportunity missed by him. He went after her, hurling spells, but Nona kept jumping back and forth, dodging his spells.

A stunning spell hit her, and Harry’s heart leaped with joy, but the cheetah’s body suddenly burst with white light, and she simply disappeared into the bushes unaffected.

“Where is she?” Ron and Hermione caught up, panting and questioning.

“She got away!” Harry sat down and smashed the ground with hatred, “I shouldn’t have been lenient.”

Ron looked off into the distance at a loss for words, where only a cloaked squirrel poked its head through the bushes. Hermione thought for two seconds and said decisively, “There’s still a chance, let’s go that way.” She pointed in the opposite direction.

Harry looked at her with an expectant gaze: “What do you mean?”

“She has to take the trophy to the next level and meet up with her teammates. But she escaped in the opposite direction of the fifth level entrance, so we may be able to intercept her in time!”

Harry could not wait to hug Hermione and kiss her.

“Then what are you waiting for!”

They quickly ran back. “Left – right – still right!” Hermione kept pointing in the right direction, “Almost there.”

A shadow rushed out from a diagonal direction.

Harry’s eyes widened, it is Nona Leibert! Then his heart sank, the distance is too far for them to catch up.

At that moment, a crisp chirp sounded, followed by something rushing past him, the thing is covered with flames and crossed hundreds of feet in the blink of an eye, Harry recognized it, it is Hermione’s ancient magic!

The firebird trailed its long plume and blocked the cheetah’s path some distance before the entrance. The cheetah gave the firebird a cautious look – the firebird spilled a patch of flame, blocking her path ahead, and in desperation, Nona Leibert reverted back to her human form.

No one made a move.

Nona rose from the ground and tossed the trophy far away with an impatient look on her face.

“You can’t beat the three of us.” Harry said calmly.

Nona smiled, raised her hands, and said in a husky tone, “That’s not necessarily true.” Her two hands suddenly interlocked.

“Protego!” Harry instantly cast a shield charm and the magic barrier burst with sparks.

“Watch out for her gesture casting magic!” The warning arrived belatedly.

Stomp, stomp, stomp!

A man rushed up from the fifth level, it is Krum, he saw Nona and the trophy on the ground at once, he extended his wand and shouted, “Accio Trophy!” Harry cancelled the shield charm, and a red light flew from the tip of his wand, which knocked the trophy far away.

“What–?” Krum shouted incredulously, turning back to see the trio, he drew a deep breath and quickly moved closer to Nona’s direction.

“You want to cooperate?” Nona asked, looking at Krum.

Krum grimaced as he looked across at Hermione and didn’t say anything.

After a moment of stalemate, a third-person rushed in, it is Cedric, the scene in front of him also made him freeze. All eyes in the room fell on him, Harry was first pleased, but immediately realized that this is not classroom seven, they are at the moment in a competitive relationship.

Cedric took a hesitant step in Harry’s direction.

“A fair fight?” Krum stated in a low voice.

Cedric suddenly stopped in his tracks, his expression struggled, of course, he wanted to get the trophy and let his team win, but right now helping Harry and the group is the best thing to do. After a while, he resolutely walked in Harry’s direction.

“Good point, just a fair fight.” Harry suddenly said, “Three against three, it makes sense, doesn’t it?”

Cedric looked at Harry with a surprised look on his face.

“I want to win fair and square.” Harry said briefly.

“That’s right, we don’t want people to talk behind our backs.” Ron said, standing with Harry.

With a wave of Hermione’s wand, the firebird landed steadily in front of her, its long beak and golden eyes gazing at them, “How about three against three, no running away, and the winner will get the trophy?”

Everyone agreed.

Outside the maze tower, the audience held their breath as the entire screen switched to the sixth level, shifting through the perspectives of six people who had been swept away by the solemn atmosphere.

“It’s wonderful! It is brilliant! Not only did the champions entertain us with a great fight, but they also showed great moral qualities,” Ludo Bagman said enthusiastically, “It was an honour to host this fight.”

“I’d like to present information about both sides of the battle: Potter, Weasley, and Granger are on the same team, have a better understanding, and each performed well in previous tasks. But their opponents are not to be underestimated, although they are from three different teams, but don’t forget, they are all captains of their respective teams!”

One second, two seconds, three seconds-

The people on the screen moved at the same time, and in a flash, the spell flew everywhere!

The battle went on for a while –

Harry ducked his head to dodge a spell and quickly counterattacked, the spell missed by two inches and hit the statue, Krum was startled and ducked back behind the statue. Then in a second, another spell flew out from a diagonal direction, “Protego!” Harry shouted, and a ripple rippled through the magical barrier.

Safe, Harry’s heart thumped, “Hermione, make your firebird do something!”

“Oh, sorry,” Hermione said bitterly, “this magic is too powerful, according to the rules, can not be used to attack people-”

“Then let it attack the statue!” Harry shouted.

Hermione froze for a moment, “Makes sense.”

“Wait, I thought of an idea.” Ron said, his body shaking badly, “It’s worth the gamble.”

“What are you going to do?” Hermione asked.

“Apparition.”

“No, it’s too dangerous-”

“I’ll do it.” Harry said, thinking Ron’s idea is brilliant, why hadn’t he thought of it before. Harry poked his head out and hurled a disarming charm, and the spell hit the statue with a splash of red light.

“No,” Ron refused, topping the runic shield charm and glancing across the room twice before hastily retracting. “Listen to me, you’re our backbone, and I’m relieved to have you here. If even you fail, Hermione and I can not hold up against the three of them.”

Harry couldn’t decide.

“Do not hesitate, who knows whether the next second there will be someone else will come up? The problem now is to pick a target–”

“Krum.” Harry agreed.

“Nona Leibert.” Hermione said.

They looked at each other and Ron said, “Just Nona, I saw her stay away from the other two.”

The hovering firebird turned into golden flames and instantly engulfed a statue, the heat scorching the stone statue and the air, and the champion hiding behind it stumbled back.

“On your left!” Hermione said sharply.

“I saw it.” Ron said, concentrating his eyes on Nona Leibert’s left, if he attacked from there, he can roll down into the bushes … his body suddenly disappeared and reappeared somewhat dazed, but he couldn’t wait, he raised his wand in an extremely awkward position.

“Stupefy!” Ron shouted.

Time seemed to pause at this moment, and Nona quickly looked back at her chest incredulously and slowly fell to the ground, with a trace of shock still remaining on her face. Ron lunged to the bushes on his hands and knees, and it worked! He grinned silently as he headed deeper into the bushes.

A rustling sound brought him back from his ecstasy. When he looked up, two caped squirrels stared at him, and they silently turned around and raised their tails …

On the other side, Krum and Cedric both felt incredulous, apparition can not be used in combat, this is a common understanding, currently, only two people can break this limit, Harry and (Felix Hap) Professor Hap.

Ron slipped into the bushes, after only a short moment Krum raised his wand, then a second later, a golden flame exploded in the open space three feet in front of him, he hurried to dodge, then the flames coalesced into a firebird, which gently flapped its wings, without attacking. Hermione … Krum’s mood is extremely complicated, followed by a numb body, as he slowly collapsed.

Harry gasped and appeared behind him. He used the apparition, a rare opportunity … the next second he disappeared again, and reappeared behind Cedric. Cedric turned around keenly, wands against each other –

“You have won.” Cedric said, dropping his wand and sitting on the ground, breathing heavily.
