Chapter 003: The Hunt
In Catherine's opinion, this ability is a bit frustrating, because it can't determine the distance, it can only judge the general direction, and the angle range of the direction is basically five to ten degrees, it's good to say that the distance is close, and if the distance is far, you don't know where the other party is.
And the target and the user must have the blood of the Black family, and fortunately, Catherine's great-grandmother Doria is the sister of Sirius's grandfather, which is also the reason why Old Lady Walburga and Narcissa took a fancy to her in the first place.
After all, due to the blood magic that was cast hundreds of years ago, outsiders who did not have the bloodline of the family could not use the function of the inheritance even if they obtained the inheritance of the family through marriage, unless the two parties to the union were the soulmates of Merlin's gift.
Therefore, Catherine secretly tried this chicken-like function after learning that the trapping of Bellatrix failed, but in the end, she regretted to find that she had to pass the ninth-order trial of the Black family and obtain complete patriarchal authority before she could locate the general location of the direct descendants of the Black family.
However, the ninth-order trial of the Rose family made Catherine understand that her strength was not strong enough, and she was afraid that it would be easy to have an accident to deal with the illusion trial of the Black family, so she made up her mind to go abroad to experience it and increase her strength by the way.
Although Tonks' mother, Andomeda, was a direct descendant of the Black family, and she also received the Black family heirloom pocket watch by virtue of this lineage, she, like Catherine, was only a temporary member.
The difference is that Catherine only has the right to govern, while Tonks' son may inherit the Black family, provided that Sirius's line is broken before her son grows up, but as it stands, this is unlikely to happen.
Since both of them are temporary members, and both have the blood of the Black family, Catherine has some patriarchal authority. At this time, he can rely on the inheritance pocket watch in his hand to locate the general location of Tonks.
After Tonks got the Black Family Inheritance Pocket Watch, she was repeated by her mother for a long time, even if she didn't pay attention when she listened, but when she saw Catherine fiddling with her inheritance pocket watch, she still quickly remembered her mother's words, and then she realized one thing, the girl's strength may have reached the ninth order.
Catherine went to accept the patriarch's inheritance, although Tonks knew. But the only one who knew that the girl had successfully passed was Snape, and the Potions Professor was extremely annoyed by the girl's rash behavior, but he couldn't vent it, so anyone who tried to test him immediately put away their intentions to approach him as soon as they saw his black face, and naturally no one else knew the girl's current strength.
Of course, Tonks wasn't sure now, but she knew that her strength was only the first glimpse of the eighth order, and if Catherine really reached the ninth order, the two would go head-to-head. She would definitely be completely suppressed, so she didn't even have the heart to continue verifying, and immediately turned around and prepared to cast the Phantom Manifestation.
But as soon as Catherine sensed the fluctuation of her magic, she drew her wand and threw a silent spell. Then he looked up and judged who he was attacking.
Tonks' ability to control her emotions has gotten much better in the past day, but she definitely can't do it in such a short period of time. became a ruthless person like Bellatrix, so in the face of Catherine's attack, she didn't dare to continue to apparition. can only fight back, which also exposes himself.
When Catherine saw Tonks' reaction, she immediately guessed that the other party might have sensed that she had reached the ninth order, and immediately realized that if she allowed the other party to use the phantom manifestation, she was afraid that she would completely lose her whereabouts, so she hurriedly exploded with all her strength.
Tonks immediately felt a tremendous pressure, she dared to stay where she was, and immediately turned to flee, Catherine did not hesitate to chase after her, and at the same time opened the Black family's inheritance pocket watch and held it tightly in her hand, so that after the new Auror changed her disguise, she could quickly find her whereabouts.
Tonks originally thought that Catherine was only surpassing her in terms of magic, but as soon as she ran away, she realized that the girl's physical strength was much more than herself, if it weren't for her disguised Magus, I was afraid that the other party would have easily caught up with her.
To Tonks' even more gratification, Catherine always took a long time to confirm her whereabouts using the Legacy Pocket Watch, so that the distance between the two grew further and further apart, and finally Tonks finally seized the opportunity and successfully apparitioned.
When Catherine noticed that Tonks's general direction had suddenly changed dramatically, she immediately guessed that the other party must have used the apparition to leave the vicinity, but she continued to chase for a while, until the direction of the pointer noticed a big change again, and then stopped to confirm her position.
Catherine then pulled a box out of her pocket and opened it, took out the Nokia 1011 that had been in it for almost a year, dialed a number, and then took out another thing in the box - a pilot's license.
"Yes, I need that helicopter right now, please help me apply for a route from Reading to Weston Marina and get it to the western outskirts of Reading as soon as possible, and I'll use fireworks to indicate where to land."
"No, I don't need a driver, I have a pilot's license with the number XXXXXXXXXXXXX."
"You want to verify basic information? Well, I'm Katherine-Princess and my date of birth is April 5, 1981. ”
"That's right, I just turned 14, so my cumulative flight time at the age of 10 was 180 hours, and the solo flight time was 80 hours, now do you have any other questions?"
As soon as the other party replied "no", Catherine hung up the phone, then conjured a mirror, began to change the color of her hair according to the photo posted on the pilot's license, and finally took out a pair of turquoise contact lenses and put them on.
"It's just that I'm full, I really don't understand why I deliberately made this appearance to get a pilot driver's license, so that I have to dress up so much trouble every time I use it later." Catherine rubbed her eyes in annoyance, and finally took out a bottle of eye drops and dropped two drops each, and the discomfort in her eyes disappeared.
Catherine rushed to the western outskirts of Reading, and waited for nearly half an hour before the rumble of the helicopter appeared in the sky, and she took out a "W.C" brand fireworks from her pocket, lit it with her wand, and the fireworks immediately flew into the sky and turned into a huge toilet.
"Fred! George! When I get home, I'm sure I'm going to teach you two bastards a good lesson! Catherine gritted her teeth in anger.
In order to let the helicopter pilot see her, Catherine had stopped the confusion charm on her body, and now that this huge toilet bowl appeared so abruptly in the sky, it must have attracted all the eyes of a radius of several hundred yards, presumably at this time, many people were already rushing to this side, trying to figure out who had such a personality.
Catherine was glad that she had changed her hair color, put on contact lenses and changed the color of her eyes, otherwise she would have immediately used her magic to make a big crack in the ground, burrow into it and bury herself quickly.
You must know that Catherine is the current prefect of Slytherin, representing the collective honor of Slytherin, and once she does such an idiotic thing in public, it will definitely lose the face of the entire Slytherin.
So as soon as the helicopter landed, Catherine bent over with her hair bent over and opened the hatch, and as soon as she entered the cabin, she shoved a few bills into the pilot's hand, and then gave her thumbs up and pointed to the hatch.
The pilot did not drag, handed a folder to Catherine to sign, immediately took off his helmet and walked out of the cabin, and as soon as he turned around after landing on his feet, he saw the folder fly into his arms, and then the cabin door was closed with a "bang".
The pilot looked up in surprise and saw a touch of purple beating in the front compartment, and then the rotation speed of the propellers began to increase, and he hurriedly bent down and ran away, and when he looked up again, the helicopter had already flown into the western sky.
"Is this girl really fourteen years old?" The driver muttered to himself and looked at the sky, and only when figures began to approach around him did he jerk his head up at the smoke in the toilet bowl that had not yet dissipated.
"No wonder she's in such a hurry to leave!" The driver pulled out a pair of sunglasses that he usually used to block the daylight and put them on, looked left and right to make out the direction, and then lowered his head and rushed towards the city of Reading, he didn't want to be mistaken for some mentally ill person.
As soon as Catherine left the western suburbs of Reading, she opened a map of England and placed the Legacy Pocket Watch on top of it, and then she found that the direction of Tonks was still to the southwest of her, much to the girl's confusion.
Tonks did not express his intention to "end the game" after knowing that Catherine had reached the ninth order, and obviously wanted to continue playing, since the destination of the game was Weston Marina, it became the key who arrived first, but the direction of the pointer did not move to the girl's west.
Catherine's understanding of the day's performance in apparition was already recognized, and as long as she was not disturbed too much, she could not have succeeded in it, but she had not reached Weston-the-Sea by this time, and the only explanation was that she had never been there, not even in its vicinity.
"I said I could use any method, but she didn't think to ask for help?" Catherine sneered and disdain, and then immediately sped up the helicopter's flight.
After all, Reading is only 90 miles away from Weston de Marina in a straight line, and the helicopter can reach a maximum speed of 180 miles per hour, if Catherine hadn't operated it for three years, she would have increased the speed to the maximum in the first place. (To be continued......)
