Chapter 070: Definition of Magic

"Go back and deal with it!" Lucius immediately decided, "Kecheli! Dobby! The two of you take the kids out first. ”

"Let's let Sirius and Remus go back and get ready!" Catherine took out a shrunken coffin and restored it to its original state, and Narcissa understood what she meant, using magic to place Regulus's body inside, and cast multiple protective spells.

Seeing this, Lupin understood Catherine's consideration, and directly pulled Sirius and asked Dobby to take them away first, and Kecheli naturally followed with Draco and Harry.

As soon as the figures of several people disappeared, Catherine suddenly walked to the edge of the island, waved her wand to extinguish the flames within three feet in front of her, and as soon as the surrounding Yin corpses sensed that the danger here was lifted, they immediately swam over, and Lucius and Narcissa just wanted to help, when they saw the lake rushing up violently, pushing the surrounding Yin corpses away more than ten feet away.

"You're not using magic?" Lucius was keenly aware of the anomaly of this phenomenon, which caused Narcissa, who was crouching next to Regulus's coffin, ready to continue to check the effect of her spell, to completely stop what she was doing.

"And what is magic in Mr. Malfoy's opinion?" Catherine smiled back and asked rhetorically, then crouched down, inserted the wand in her right hand into the lake that had just fallen, and closed her eyes to carefully sense the magic circle at the bottom of the lake.

"Use your mind to manipulate changes in real things around you to attack, heal, defend, or other effects. - This is Merlin's definition of magic. Lucius replied with a slight frown, "However, this definition is too general, so after thousands of years of research, magic has been subdivided into many types, but the 'magic' I just mentioned refers to the magic that has been popular in the British wizarding world in the past ten years." ”

Catherine didn't respond immediately, but waited until she sensed the situation of the magic array at the bottom of the lake before she got up and replied with a smile: "If it is according to the scope of your excellency. What I just did was barely magical. ”

Lucius knew that the red-haired girl was not telling the truth, but he did not continue to ask, but stared at her eyes, as if trying to dig out the truth, Catherine calmly looked at her for a while, until the yin corpse in the lake approached again, then turned her head and waved her wand, allowing the surrounding flames to re-encircle the island in the middle of the lake.

Narcissa didn't understand what her husband and Catherine were talking about, and she didn't like the strange atmosphere of understanding between Lucius and the red-haired girl. But she didn't know what to do to solve this strange situation without letting them blame herself.

Thankfully, the presence of Kechelli and Dobby helped Narcissa solve this dilemma.

"It's time to leave!" Narcissa stood up, and Kecheli immediately ran to her and grabbed her outstretched left hand, while holding out her other hand to lift Regulus's coffin with the magic of a house-elf.

Lucius nodded to his wife, and Kechelli left with Narcissa and Regulus' coffins, and Dobby ran to Catherine in a panic. Just as I wanted to take her away, I heard her say, "Wait a minute." ”

"You don't want to destroy these Yin Corpses, do you?" Lucius asked as he walked towards the red-haired girl.

"Keep it for now, maybe it will be useful in the future." Catherine paused for a moment before continuing, "The most important thing now is to erase the traces of the three of you left here. ”

Lucius was shocked, and hurriedly closed his eyes to sense his surroundings. By the time he opened his eyes again, his face had completely lost its color.

"Don't worry!" Catherine smiled confidently, "If it's on the ground, I'm afraid I can't help it." But here, I can still give it a try, as long as you swear not to say it. ”

"Is it the 'magic' you are going to use?" Lucius saw Catherine nod. He raised his wand and swore solemnly.

"Hold your breath at the sight of water, but don't use any magic from now on!" As soon as the magic oath was made, Catherine solemnly told Lucius a word, and then told Dobby to open the arch in the rock wall.

Dobby disappeared in response, and the red-haired girl also pointed her wand in the direction of the arch, and a faint yellow light emerged from the palm of her right hand, quickly wrapping around her wand and shooting towards the shore of the black lake, Catherine closed her eyes, carefully sensing the water outside the cavern.

Three seconds later, the sound of rumbling water came from outside the arch, and then a thick stream of water rushed in, and they directly crossed the black lake, smashed on the island in the middle of the lake, extinguished the still burning flames, and swept away all the Yin corpses, but softly bypassed the coffins of several people present and Regulus.

When Lucius opened his eyes and looked closely, the cave had been completely filled with seawater, and it was impossible to retreat in a short time, and when Dobby returned to Catherine, the arch was also closed again due to the loss of magic support, which means that the next time someone comes here, they are afraid that as soon as they open the door, they will be covered in seawater, and they will be besieged by Yin corpses if they are not careful.

And when he thought that that person was very likely to be a big man who he couldn't resist for the time being, Lucius's face couldn't help but become extremely strange.

"Can you go?" Lucius asked, his voice becoming a little strange in the water.

"We'll have to wait a little longer." Catherine answered, and suddenly waved her wand downward, and a green light flashed, and the original lake began to split a gap from under her feet, and then slowly moved to both sides like Moses dividing the sea.

Lucius looked at the scene in front of him in shock, and only then did he notice the faintly glowing magic array embedded in the bottom of the lake, and when he could clearly distinguish the purpose of the magic array, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

Catherine ignored his strange appearance, she fell directly to her knees, turned her wand upside down and grasped the handle of the wand with both hands, and then raised her hands high as if she were holding a sword, and suddenly stabbed into the air in front of her.

The still distinct sea water immediately spun, gathered into an ice pick, spun and plunged into the magic array, the faint light of the magic array shook a few times, and then completely dimmed, and the huge ice pick also smashed open, completely mixed with the surrounding lake water.

Seeing this, Catherine couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then felt dizzy, but fortunately she held the ground in time to not fall, and Lucius just wanted to help her up, but she noticed that the yin corpses that had just been washed up by the water flow were in a mess, and they actually turned around and rushed towards them collectively.

"Dobby! Take us away immediately! Lucius immediately crouched down and pulled Catherine into his arms, reaching out and grabbing Dobby's arm.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Dobby hurriedly used the magic of the house-elves to disappear from the island in the middle of the lake with Lucius and Catherine.

Sensing the disappearance of the target's aura, the Yin Corpses did not waste time and energy thinking about the reason for the disappearance of the target, but simply stopped their actions and continued to drift along the inertia of the current until someone came to disturb their rest.

"Regulus! My son! As soon as Narcissa and Regulus's coffin appeared at the Black family's old house, Walburga let out a heart-rending cry, and Sirius and Lupin hurriedly moved the coffin to her portrait.

Walburga tried to throw himself on his youngest son's coffin and weep, but he finally fell to his knees on the floor of the portrait, Sirius and Narcissa were saddened by this, and Harry and Draco hurried to stay with them, watching over them so that nothing could happen.

Lupin was relieved to see this, but then he found that Lucius and Catherine had not returned, and he wanted to ask Kechelli to go back and check, but when he saw that the elderly house-elf was sadder than Sirius and Narcissa, he thought it would be better not to bother.

Lupin could only sense the movement outside the door with trepidation, because Dobby was not a house-elf of the Black family, so he could not directly enter the Black family's old mansion, so he could only move to Kliman Square, but when he noticed the abnormal movement in the square, his face suddenly became ugly.

After Lupin glanced at the members of the Black family who were still grieving, he quietly opened the door and walked out, seeing that the blonde man outside the door was still holding the red-haired girl, he couldn't help but walk over and ask in a low voice: "Mr. Malfoy, thank you for taking care of Catherine, can you hand her over to me now?!"

Lupin's tone made Lucius feel extremely dissatisfied, he was not a big carrot, any woman would take advantage, coupled with Snape's relationship, he would not have any intentions against his beginner disciple, not to mention that Catherine herself was a dangerous person.

If it weren't for the emergency situation just now, Lucius didn't dare to use magic there, otherwise he would never have asked Dobby to take them out of the cave immediately, knowing that too hasty spatial movement is easy to cause accidents, and Catherine's magic power is obviously too consumed, and she may not be able to protect herself for a while.

That's why Lucius made that kind of move in a hurry, after all, the reason why the clothes on his body are so valuable is precisely because it has its own exceptionally advanced defensive magic, as long as Catherine is within their protection range, there will be basically no accidents.

However, the spatial movement would have disturbed the balance of the mover, which made Catherine's dizziness due to excessive magic consumption become more and more severe, so even when he arrived at Kliman Square, Lucius, who noticed that her condition was becoming more and more strict, did not dare to let go immediately, so he could only use magic to dry the clothes of the two first, and then bow his head and ask the red-haired girl what help she needed.

Lupin, who was disturbed by the old mansion of the Black family, could not clearly sense Catherine's condition, so he naturally misunderstood Lucius's behavior, but even if he knew that it was just a misunderstanding, as the patriarch of the Malfoy family, he would not explain the reason in a low voice.

"You want me to give her to you! Why don't you come and hold her up yourself? Lucius asked rhetorically in an arrogant tone. (To be continued......)
