"Let's unite—"

"Let's unite!"

"We are not pacifists—"

"Non-pacifists!"

"Swing your staff, shake your staff, point the tip of your staff at the target—"

"Swing your staff, shake your staff, and point at the target!"

"Good, one more time; Attention, it's time for us to chant the mantra this time! Float into the air—"

"Float into the air!"

In the Demstrang College president's office, the current president, Karkaroff, is reviewing some documents.

Since the last time Maca pointed out a "bright path" for him, he has become much more diligent than before. Many of the documents that he hadn't looked at in the past had begun to think about and write down the comments he had written down in earnest.

Although his mind is still crooked—nothing more than using his position to win favors, at least he has begun to take the responsibilities of "President of Durmstrang College" seriously.

However, the person who made him make this change seemed to be a bit out of business.

At this moment, just outside the window behind Karkarov, a huge rock that had been moved from nowhere suddenly appeared.

But Karkaroff, who was intently reviewing the documents, was unaware of this.

"Okay, pay attention to each other, maintain balance, 3-2-1——! It's good to put it down! ”

"Boom!"

A loud noise sounded abruptly from the window, and Karkarov was startled, and the quill in his hand "snorted", marking a "strong through the back of the paper" on a document.

"Remember, that's the power of unity!" Maca clapped her hands and said loudly, "Okay, everyone take a break." ”

"Is this the kind of app you're talking about?" After everyone began to rest in place, Krum, who was standing on the sidelines, asked impatiently.

"Yes, this is actually the same principle as using the Levitation Charm to fly, as long as each person only controls a small part, you can largely avoid the entanglement and interference of each other's magic."

"Doesn't that mean—"

Maca waved her hand and said casually, "Don't think about it, it's just a kind of training that allows everyone to increase their confidence and learn teamwork." In fact, just lifting this boulder is already a very difficult thing to do, and there is not much practical use. ”

With that, Maca clapped her hands again, and everyone lined up again.

"The break is over! Next up is the quick casting practice in the Duel Technique! Let's recall what I've explained before, and try them out in turn! The first row prepares—"

After a while, waves of crooked red ** rays suddenly appeared behind Karkarov, shooting out in the distance in a parabolic shape.

Karkaroff looked at the principal's room, which was illuminated by red light again and again, and threw his quill on the floor in anger.

He now has only one wish in his heart, and that is to hope that Maca can finish his business as soon as possible, and then get as far as he can!

That night, Maka carried a dead frog to the edge of the lake behind the school.

In the days since he came to Durmstrang, he used to come out at night and sit here for a while. And today, it still is.

He placed the dead frog in his hand on a damp rock by the lake, and then pulled out a small tin box from his sleeve. He opened the lid and placed it next to the dead frog.

Suddenly, a dozen or so agile little creatures quickly crawled out of the box, rushed to the dead frog and nibbled on it.

These are the same egg sacs that Aragog gave to Maca from the eight-eyed spider, which had hatched some time ago when they were in Azkaban.

At the moment, these young spiders are still quite small, but they are obviously two or three times larger than when they first hatched. Looking at this astonishing growth rate, I'm afraid it won't be long before I have to rely on the Shrinking Charm to carry them on my body.

Probably because they've been together since birth, they and Maca seem very close. When they had eaten the dead frog to the point of not being left with any dregs, they climbed into Maca's hand together.

"The characteristics have not yet been revealed, and when I grow up, it will be time to test the results of practice......" He was muttering to himself, but the next second he seemed to notice something, and suddenly turned his head to look into the trees on his right.

"Come out!"

As she spoke, Maca reached for the tin box, and the spiderlings immediately climbed into it on their own.

"Hello, Mr. McLean."

As the voice sounded, a mysterious man wrapped in a cloak walked out of the woods. It can be seen that whether it is in the hood or in the sleeve, there is a faint leakage of some lingering black gas.

"Is that you?" Maca immediately remembered the guy who had attacked Dumbledore with him at the time.

The other party didn't pay attention to Maca, but continued in a stiff tone, "The master wants to see you, please come with me." ”

"Master? The Dark Lord? Maca said calmly, "As far as I know, I have some grudges with your master!" Do you think I'm going to go? ”

"It's an order, if you don't come with me, then I'll have to take you away."

He spoke dryly, without the slightest tact, as if he were a robot.

"How are you going to take me away?" Maca raised an eyebrow, her right hand shook, and her wand slid accurately into his hand.

The man reacted very quickly, only to see his right foot slam on the ground, and immediately rushed straight towards Maca at an unexpected speed.

But Maca's movements were also very fast, and a burst of blue-green sparks flashed, slowing down at a speed that was visible to the naked eye...... No, it's just the cloak that's slowing down!

At that moment, a thick cloud of black qi broke through the cloak and headed straight for Maca at an unabated speed.

I heard a loud bang, and the rock under Maca's feet was smashed by the other party.

"An enhanced version of Peter Pettigrew?"

Maca controlled the gravel under her feet, and hung steadily in mid-air, thoughtful.

But the other party obviously wouldn't let him stop there and think about it, and after smashing the rock, he suddenly turned around, dragging a long black tail and flying directly towards Maca in mid-air without any reason.

Maca calmly controlled the rubble to move sideways a few feet, accurately avoiding the rushing black air mass, staring at it without blinking.

"What the hell is all that black gas?" He kept thinking about it, but he still didn't get anything.

After the opponent didn't hit Maca several times, he seemed to change his strategy and fell back to the ground to change back into his human form. It seems that it is impossible to fly in the air without that state of black air mass.

Look at the man wrapped in black gas, almost exactly like Peter Pettigrew. But it was clear that this one was more difficult than Peter, because he could think more or less, rather than fight by brute force.

The next moment, the other party raised his right hand, and the black qi wrapped around his arm seemed to be alive, scattered and turned into more small black air masses, and shot towards Maca continuously.

Maca immediately fell vertically, directing all the black qi to the ground. But when those small black gas masses fell on the rocks on the ground one by one, they all seemed to have no magical properties, but they only smashed fist-sized cracks and craters on the surface of the rocks.

This leaves Maca unable to gather any useful information at all.

"Since this black gas can greatly fuel the flame of the Mighty Fire Bottle, it is undoubtedly very high in magic power; But all it can do is physics? ”

Regarding the nature and principle of this black qi, Maca felt a little helpless.

Just as the two were fighting fiercely, another voice suddenly came out of the forest.

"McLean, stop!"

When Maca heard this, she immediately burst out of the distance, and when she saw that the other party had also stopped, she turned back and looked into the forest.

"Professor Snape?"

The visitor shook his greasy hair, his sallow face was not very clear in the moonlight, but his empty and indifferent eyes were memorable.

Snape looked back and forth at the two who were temporarily truceing with a gloomy expression, and said impatiently: "McLean, the master wants to see you, then you just follow honestly, why fight with him?" ”

Maca pursed her lips and put her wand away.

"Alright, I'm just a little bored, and I just want to test this guy's strength - since you're here, Professor Snape, why don't you come out sooner?"

Snape snorted, walked quickly to Maca's side, and without saying a word, vanished with his apparition.

……

Riddle's house is still quite dilapidated.

It's full of cobwebs, spotted mangs, and everything else you'd find in old houses, which makes it look really bad.

But in the study of Riddle House, there is a new look.

It was cleaned up, and even the space was enlarged with a Traceless Stretching Charm and all kinds of gorgeous furniture. Near the doorway, many Death Eaters sat on their couches, occasionally talking to each other, but most of the time they were silent.

And the reason why they were silent was naturally the handsome and sunny young wizard sitting in the deepest part of this room.

There was only one person left by his side, and that was his most loyal follower, Bellatrix Lestrange.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Master, McKellen has arrived."

At this point, the Death Eaters who were sitting on the couch all sat up straight, their eyes invariably looking towards the still closed door.

The young wizard who sat at the back of the room also looked up, and the corners of his mouth drew a peculiar smile, but the depth of his gaze made it difficult to guess.

"Come on in! Severus...... Also, my old friend, Macka McLean. ”
