MTL - I Wield a Sword at Hogwarts-Chapter 25

"Damn it, you stupid guy!" Quirrell couldn't help but yell.

This was already the fourth time. Except for John's painless sleeping spell that hit the unicorn at first and alerted it, every subsequent attack was unsuccessful.

If he hadn't known that John had been controlled by the Imperius Curse, he really felt that John was deliberately causing trouble.

In fact, John really came to cause trouble. He glanced at the tired unicorn and became more and more anxious.

"Did Basil not deliver the letter, or did the professors not believe me?"

John's heart sank. This was really a bad result.

He asked Basil and Tom to deliver letters to several professors in an effort to kill Quirrell.

Sending the letter seemed to be like nothing. He looked at the unicorn getting closer and closer, and struggled even more in his heart.

Do you really want to kill the unicorn?

After Quirrell knocked down the unicorn again, the blood flowing from the unicorn was flowing down.

Quirrell's breathing became a little rapid, "Seize the opportunity!"

After hearing the words, John walked out and pointed his wand at the unicorn.

He saw the human sadness in the unicorn's eyes and pursed his lips.

Quirrell next to him was still urging, "Hurry up, use the magic spell you are most familiar with to kill it!"

His body is too weak and he will die if he does not drink the unicorn's blood. Voldemort has been sucking his life force.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to bring down this little Death Eater, he would have killed the unicorn long ago.

John seemed to have made up his mind, and the wand burst into flames.

"Fiendfyre"

The flames seemed to erupt uncontrollably, igniting the surrounding vegetation and engulfing the surroundings.

"Idiot!"

Quirrell didn't expect that John would be stupid enough to use the powerful fire. He knocked John away in anger and immediately rushed towards the unicorn.

The fierce fire was ignited everywhere, but the unicorn was not burned alone.

Quirrell still needs to rely on the unicorn to survive. He doesn't care so much anymore. He will drink blood when he comes in front of the unicorn.

At this moment, a red light flew over, and he quickly dodged it.

It’s the professors who are here.

Chapter 29 The Battle in the Forbidden Forest and the Curse

"Poor kid, he was hit by the Imperius Curse!"

John originally wanted to stab Quirrell in the back, but when he heard the voice approaching, he immediately pretended to have his soul taken away.

Professor Sprout trotted to John's side, feeling extremely heartbroken when he saw his appearance.

Professor McGonagall was like an angry lion, her lips turned white from exertion, and hurting the students of Hogwarts was the bottom line that she could not bear.

The wand continued to burst out with light in Professor McGonagall's hand. She pressed forward step by step, and with a wave of her hand, the trees nearby turned into a lion and pounced on Quirrell.

"You have to pay for this!"

Don't question an angry professor, especially if the professor is an Animagus.

Quirrell wanted to fight back, but Professor McGonagall turned into a tabby cat and dodged it nimbly. The cat's sharp claws left a series of scars on the cloak.

Transforming back into human form, Professor McGonagall raised her wand again and attacked Quirrell.

"Stupefy"

Quirrell was hit and flew out. Mag still wanted to chase him, but the movement here attracted the patrolling little wizard.

"Professor McGonagall?!"

Harry exclaimed in surprise, and Professor McGonagall secretly thought that was terrible.

Nervously shouted: "Hide Potter!"

Quirrell, who should have fallen asleep, floated up and swam flexibly like a snake. When he approached Harry, Professor McGonagall had already launched another attack.

Quirrell turned around and disappeared into the Forbidden Forest.

"How is this going?"

Hagrid also came here, and the fierce fire was burning and difficult to extinguish. With the cooperation of Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick, who came over, they were able to extinguish the fierce fire.

Even so, this battle is also very dangerous.

Hermione looked at Harry nervously and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was not injured.

But after her eyes moved, she screamed when she saw the little wizard lying on the ground.

"Oh my God, John!"

Hermione ran down regardless of the danger, came to Professor Sprout, and asked with a trembling voice: "He will be fine, right?"

Professor Sprout is the headmaster of Hufflepuff and a short, fat and amiable witch.

Hearing Hermione's inquiry, she touched John's head with pity: "He has been hit by the Imperius Curse. We have to send him to the school hospital."

"The Unforgivable Curse?!"

The name of the Imperius Curse made Hermione's heart tremble.

Harry and Neville also ran over, and even Malfoy didn't leave at this moment, but was in disbelief.

Professor McGonagall looked grave. Someone entered Hogwarts and harmed a student with the Imperius Curse.

Professor Flitwick screamed angrily: "Damn you bastard!"

The centaur was alerted. This centaur looked young, with platinum hair and the body of a silver-maned horse.

"Hagrid, dear professors."

Firenze came here and saw what happened, with some surprise in his eyes.

The horseman can get prophecies by observing the stars, but what happened now was beyond his expectation.

"Hagrid, take them back and send Mr. Wick to the school hospital. We will search this place thoroughly."

Professor McGonagall issued the task, and Hagrid picked up John, followed by the frightened little wizard.

Firenze also followed them, and at the same time chatted with Harry about the mysterious starry sky.

The group of people walked towards the outside of the Forbidden Forest, and John gradually felt relieved.

"Three professors are enough for Quirrell to eat a pot, of course, provided they are found."

John was secretly happy, now he wouldn't have to see Quirrell for a while.

The unicorn also survived. Professor Sylvanus Kettleburn, who was in charge of the Magical Creatures class, heard about this and rushed to take care of it.

After relaxing, John's eyelids felt a little heavy.

Also, in order to prevent Quirrell from seeing the flaw, he needs to be tense all the time. Now that he is safe, he feels sleepy when he relaxes.

John, who was about to have a good sleep, heard the rustling sound of movement, and his heart suddenly lifted.

Opening his eyes, he saw those vicious eyes.

"Avada Kedavra"

"grass!"

John didn't expect that this crazy Quirrell would dare to show up, let alone that he would save people.

John, who was in Hagrid's arms, kicked away Harry and Malfoy in front of him. With too much force, John fell down.

The green light hit John, and the amulet was activated at this moment.

The Iron Armor Curse blocked the front and collided with the Life Curse, weakening the Life Curse.

Quirrell was originally weak because of Voldemort, and later he was beaten up by Professor McGonagall and became even more semi-disabled.

Now this life-killing curse is extremely weak, and it is blocked by the iron armor curse.

John's whole body still flew out when he was hit, but he was sure that it was not enough to kill him.

Before closing his eyes, John heard the sound of many horse hooves. It was the centaurs coming.

Quirrell did not dare to stay. After using the Death Curse, he turned around and ran away without seeing the result.

He paid the price for his stupidity and was chased by centaurs all night long.

…

Since the arrival of the Sleepless Man, John has not slept for such a long time.

When he opened his eyes, it was still dark around him.

He slept for three whole days, and Hogwarts exploded during these three days.

An evil guy broke into the Forbidden Forest and kidnapped a Slytherin student using the Imperius Curse.

As those involved in this incident, Harry and others could have become the center of public opinion based on first-hand information, but they did not.

Even Malfoy was no longer in a playful mood at this moment. All he could think about was the green light flying towards him and John's sudden kick.

"He saved me, Wick, why."

Malfoy was confused. He and John were obviously at odds with each other and even insulted him as a mudblood, but in the end the other party saved him.

This made him at a loss.

The same was true for the three little ones. Harry and Hermione were so worried that they couldn't sleep.

Especially Harry, the green light he saw seemed to be the same as the green light in his dream.

He knew exactly what that meant.

His friend John might die trying to save himself, and Harry couldn't stop shaking.

Three days passed like a year.

Dumbledore also appeared in the school hospital several times. Even Snape, who didn't like John, had a gloomy face all day long, looking at Quirrell with a murderous gaze, as if he would cast a death curse on him in the next second.

It was dark night when John woke up, but several professors still received the news.

The first person to come over was Professor Snape. His expression became more gloomy, and in a unique greasy tone, he asked: "What on earth are you doing, John Wick!"

"Calm down Severus." Dumbledore appeared and interrupted Professor Snape.

The eyes under the half-moon lenses were full of relief. Dumbledore said with a smile: "This is good news, isn't it? But we should be lucky that the caster was too weak, weak enough to allow John Wick to survive."

Professor Snape's complexion improved slightly, but he still looked gloomy.

"John Wick, do you recognize the man who cast a spell on you?"

Facing Dumbledore's question, John thought for a moment and shook his head and said, "I can't see clearly, but he seems to be very familiar with Hogwarts."

Among the professors, the four deans, except Snape, are all in the Forbidden Forest, and since Snape is a spy, it is impossible to escape, so it is self-evident who it is.

John almost said it was Quirrell directly. Dumbledore smiled and said nothing.

However, when Harry and the others came to visit the next day, they told him about the unicorn. The unicorn survived, and Professor Quirrell took a few days of sick leave. He might have read it during the exam. Not here.

In the days that followed, John no longer had to be troubled by Quirrell.

He just needs to wait closely for the exam week to come.

And John has not forgotten what Dumbledore said last time. When he thinks of the Sorcerer's Stone, John's heart becomes hot.

​While constantly waiting and anticipating, exam week has arrived.

Chapter 30 Exam Week and the Trap Board

June.

Exam week is coming.
