Chapter 2059: Upwind and Downwind
Fighting in front of people in such an "ugly and rude" posture is undoubtedly a shame for Madame Maxim. Moreover, this "shame" is essentially born in this world, and it is almost destined to accompany him for the rest of his life...... and something that will be passed down from generation to generation.
However, as soon as she thought back to every day she had spent in Beauxbatons, her body couldn't help but move.
Yes, what has been experienced in this school has not always been good. Rather, when she was just a student at Beauxbatons, she always had bad memories because of some people's overt and covert discrimination.
However, life is not always painful, and there will be sweetness when there are hardships. If I have to say, Madame Maxim must still be deeply in love with this school that has been with her for almost half her life.
Especially after successfully taking over the position of Principal, she has devoted herself to the maintenance and development of Beauxbatons.
Dealing with daily official business during the day and thinking about future development at night, from the process planning of each school start to the curriculum arrangement of students, to the clothing, food, housing and transportation of all teachers and students, which one is not handled by her personally?
Even unlike the principals of several other large-scale magic schools, Maxim himself took the initiative to teach an elective course, taking at least four class hours a week to teach the students personally. It wasn't until the recent disaster that she temporarily handed over the course to another professor.
Maybe if it weren't for the strong energy and excellent physique brought by her giant bloodline, she would probably have been tired and tired.
Thus...... It is clear that even when he was trying to win the position of Headmaster Beauxbatons, Maxim was only fighting to prove himself to others. But now, that competitive idea has long since faded in her heart.
Beauxbatons is a good school—if it hasn't always been, but Maxim wants it to be at least as stable and beautiful as it can be during his tenure as headmaster.
And Beauxbatons like this, Maxim would not allow anyone else to destroy it!
"Bang-"
Ida, who had only flown upside down for a short distance under the powerful spell bombardment just now, was now knocked out far away by Maxim with a left hand hook that usually does not appear in wizard fights.
Watching the blood-colored figure cross the grass on one side and fall all the way to the distant hillside, and slam into the ground and splash a cloud of dust, the faces of the wizards present showed disbelief on their faces.
Right! Even the head of the Brandt family, who had long since retreated to the side, had a trace of stunned that could not be concealed on his gloomy face.
Needless to say, of course he knew about Maxim's giant bloodline, but ...... It is extremely rare for a hybrid descendant of a magical creature and a human to inherit such a level of bloodline talent. Although Maxim's power is not comparable to that of a real giant, it is already very scary.
"What are you still doing? Mr. Ionescu, it's not over yet! Get your people ready right away. Maxim held his wand and stared at the hillside meadow, still maintaining a posture of readiness, "I can feel that the blow just now did not hurt her too badly. ”
"It's okay to take such a heavy punch?"
When Councillor Ionescu, who had fled a long time ago, heard this, he couldn't help but say very worriedly, and he didn't even care about the fact that Maxim had just broken free from his shackles and resisted arrest.
And after Maxim's reminder, the other wizards of the Federation hurriedly gathered, and looked at the dust raised on the hillside like Maxim and started to be on guard.
At the same time, several professors who had already received Maxim's orders also rushed back to the campus and began to repair the damaged school gate.
Previously, it was because the school gate happened to be lifted from the protective spell that it would be so easy to be knocked off. If more spells were attached, even if it was an evolved living corpse, it wouldn't be so easy to knock it away.
However, time waits for no one, and neither does the living corpse of Ida.
"Whew-"
They didn't have to wait too long, and before the dust had completely cleared from the hillside on the other side, the familiar figure sprang out of it again, and flew towards it with great speed.
This battle is far from over.
……
"Miss?"
Outside the school gates, Madame Maxim and other wizards were still fighting; At the school gate, several professors in Beauxbatons have begun to repair the school gate to supplement protection; As for the inside of the school gate...... Willy just watched it all from afar, sometimes a little distracted, not knowing what she was thinking.
The old butler, who had been waiting for a while, couldn't help but call again.
"Well," Willy replied unconsciously, and then said with some concern, "if this continues, they may lose." ”
"What?" Lupin on the side was also observing the battle outside, and when he heard Willy say this, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, "Why?" This...... Doesn't it look like Madame Maxim has the upper hand? ”
"Yes, for the time being." Willie said calmly, "However, the speed of that living corpse lady is still rising. And you see - after being hit a few times, she has begun to get used to Madame's way of fighting. ”
As Willy said, although Madame Maxime's melee ability is beyond imagination, the combination of melee and magic must be balanced to maximize the effect.
But in fact, due to the anti-magic ability of the living corpse Ida, which has exceeded the strength of Maxim's spell, it is obvious that the magic side cannot cause any damage to it.
As a result, as Ida gets used to Madame Maxime's current combat mode, the shortcomings of melee combat immediately begin to become apparent.
Ida was fast and agile, so much so that Maxim couldn't catch up in time as long as he was in normal flight. So as long as Ida doesn't take the initiative to get closer, then no matter how strong Maxim's strength is, it's useless to miss.
After a period of fighting, Ida, who had slowly turned into a living corpse outside the school gate, was flying in the air, walking a group of wizards running left and running - Maxim chased her, and she chased after other wizards, scurrying around.
While this is a bit disrespectful to the sorcerers who have already died, to be honest, the scene does look a little funny.
