Chapter Eighty-Six: Together

I don't know where Self heard the strange name of Meteor, but Brandi didn't have any impression at all. According to Brandi's thoughts, such a powerful spell, how should it be called a super· X Dark Ultimate Electric Light Flame Dragon Star Burst Abandonment Healing Spell is such an imposing name as right, how exciting does this sound......

But Salph rarely took the initiative to speak, how should she not refuse her kindness, a meteor is a meteor.

Not long after the test explosion of the meteor was completed, Brandi was pulled by them (his legs were still a little weak and his whole body was sore) and fled the scene, the scene that made the heavens and the earth change color was really grand, and the castle would definitely react again. Sure enough, when they came out of the other side of the Forbidden Forest in a half-circle, they saw a few fluorescent clusters moving in the field in the distance.

Fortunately, Brandi's spell was placed against the sky, and the area of influence was so large, that the professors should not be able to find the exact location of the spell for a while.

On the way back to the castle, Luna chatted with Brandi about the amazing fireworks that had just arrived, and she seemed to be looking forward to Brandi's holiday with Self at her house for a big fireworks show. But Shirley's mother had already made the decision to take Sorf to the Olympics as early as Christmas...... Although there was no mention of Brandi's handling opinions, Brandi always felt that as a man, he should go over with him to help carry a bag or something.

And the most important problem is that even if he doesn't go to Barcelona with his family, he probably won't have the courage to meet Mr. Lovegood again.

The two of them had a good conversation, but Sharf was uncharacteristically sullen, and she walked forward silently with Brandy's arm around her, deaf to the conversation between the two men.

Brandi looked over with some curiosity and noticed that her slender eyebrows were furrowed together, as if she was entangled in something terrible.

It wasn't until she was about to part at the side door of the castle that she raised her head a little uneasily, and felt her eyes become moist. "I'm sorry, brother, but if you can, I personally hope that you will never use this spell one day......"

"Huh? You obviously helped me a lot, why do you apologize in turn? Brandi rubbed her head amusedly, "Don't worry, I know in my heart, it's just a compound magic, and it can't break me." Moreover, even if the mana is exhausted, isn't it just the right time to further increase my mana reserves and recovery speed~ No one can have too much mana, right? ”

"But my brother," said Sylph, clutching his robe pitifully, "it would be dangerous......

In the end, Brandi still swore that he would never set off a large fireworks, so he reluctantly made Self happy again.

………………

The next two weeks flew by with intense spell practice and pre-battle preparations. With the refreshing potion Pomfrey brought from Pomfrey, Brandi walked around the Forbidden Forest during the day, practiced spells desperately, and slipped into the castle at night to find a book to read. After more than a week of sleeping for only three hours a day, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and slept in the hut for two days before he could barely recover. When he first fell asleep, he was so dizzy that he couldn't even stand, and Hagrid had to shrink into the crack in the ground as soon as he let go.

Hagrid was so scared of the horrible sleep that he stopped sending Brandi to the Forbidden Forest. According to Hagrid's words, it seems that not long after Brandy completed the Meteor Course, the magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest seem to have become more peaceful, and they no longer run to the edge of the Forbidden Forest in groups. Although it is still necessary to observe again for the sake of safety, there is no need to involve Brandi in the future.

In this way, Brandi was finally able to live a life of day and night - getting up at five o'clock every night to wash up, waiting for the 'breakfast' that Salph and the others brought from the Great Hall, and then after a little small talk, he returned to the castle with them, practiced spells in Room Thirteen, and slipped away to the library alone in the dead of night.

This kind of life is actually quite good, except that they don't see Harry at all. Harry hadn't seen him since the last time he had a falling out with them...... This made Brandi's little heart flutter, and he had already made up his mind that he would apologize to the three of them when he brought the silly girl back.

The days were so busy that Brandi was losing the concept of time. Had it not been for the fact that Salf and Luna had inadvertently mentioned the upcoming final test next Monday in their chat the day before, he would have missed the schedule - and after dropping them off, Brandi hurried back to Hagrid's hut and began to pack his belongings.

The suitcase was so bulky that it could only be temporarily placed in Hagrid's place, and he could only bring his own bag with him at most. Warm clothes must be brought, and if Padma's message is correct with what the book says, he is afraid that he will go to enjoy the scenery of the snow-capped mountains...... At this time, Mrs. Weasley's knitted jumper was the key to saving her life.

In addition, Padma's letters obviously need to be brought over, and there are still a few codes on them that cannot be understood, and it is estimated that they will not be found out until they arrive in India.

Naturally, the invisibility cloak should also be worn. And the potions—Hagrid had complained to Madam Pomfrey about the bottles of potions, and it seemed that he couldn't get enough of a tough guy who had been going to the school hospital twice in three days to ask for medicine.

But it couldn't be helped, Brandi wanted to go to the school hospital to get it himself, but whether Muggles or wizards, the characteristics of the medical workers were exactly the same - the labels on the bottles in the cabinet were in the font, and he couldn't even tell if it was an English word.

You see how easy Snape's potions are, not only easy to recognize, but also easy to take (steal)! Brandi was already planning to enter Snape's office in the middle of the night to open the cabinet, but he didn't expect Snape to put two suits of life and death water directly on the table like this, and Brandi was ecstatic and hurriedly packed and taken away. It wasn't until he came back that he realized that Dumbledore had deliberately asked Snape to put the two potions there......

Carefully wrapping the flask in his sock, Brandi patted his bag and met Hagrid's worried look. He knew that Brandi was going to go far away.

"Okay, help me get everything right? Help me talk to Salph and them, and they say I'm going to the Forbidden Forest to feed Sniff, they like to sniff. Brandy, trying to ease the tension, leaned over and gently grabbed Hagrid's waist...... To be reasonable, hugging a big man who is almost four meters tall is not a pleasant experience, and even if he is sitting in a chair, it is still a height that will suffocate Brandi.

"Dumbledore won't let me ask you what you're going to do, but I know it's certainly not an easy job." Hagrid patted Brandi on the shoulder, and he looked more worried than Brandi himself. "Dumbledore is true, you're just over thirteen......"

"I think so too~" Brandi said with a smile, "When I get back, I'll have to apply to Professor Dumbledore for a long summer vacation with no homework—I'm leaving, Hagrid." See you in three days~ Of course, if you're lucky......"

"I think you've always had good luck."

"Accept your good words~" Brandi let go of his hand with a grin and pushed open the door of the hut, it was dark outside, and he had already walked far away, but when he turned around, he could still see Hagrid standing by the window.

By this time, less than half an hour before the twentieth of May, he had not recited the night vision charm, and was alone and quietly walking through the dark and quiet fields, passing by the great lake in front of the castle. The moonlight is thick tonight, and the surface of the lake is like a silver-gray mirror reflecting the stars in the sky. The giant squid suddenly lazily stretched its tentacles, scattering the moon in the water into sparkling waves.

It's an amazing feeling, Brandi thought to herself. It was already time when the arrow was ready to be fired, but his uneasy heart calmed down, and he suddenly felt a terrible, deep loneliness. It's as if he's the only one left in the world......

Yes, in ten minutes, I may really have to face the 'whole world'. But he didn't have any idea what exactly to do to bring Parvati back unharmed. If you don't have a foresight, you can probably only take one step at a time.

Shrinking his neck, Brandi left the lake, and he came to the castle gates. The lack of lights makes it a bit eerie, and the towering fences and walls are covered in moss and vines, completely isolating the inside and outside of the castle into two worlds.

He cast a night vision spell and began to search around the gate, and soon found what Dumbledore had said. It was a palm-sized statue of a woman with seven hands and eight legs sitting on a lotus platform, and Brandi was surprised to find that it was the same Hindu goddess that Parvati had shown herself and Hermione before, called Lakshmi.

It turns out that they have conspired with Dumbledore for a long time, probably because they brought something from India to be able to use it as a reference point for the portkey...... Eh, but where is it going to take me? Go straight to Parvati's side?

Brandi sat quietly on the grass with his bag on his back, statue in hand, waiting for the minutes to pass. Ten minutes to go...... He glanced at his watch through the glimmer of the fluorescent spell. The stomach felt like a pebble had been swallowed, heavy.

Five minutes to go — "Huh? ”

Suddenly, there was a faint movement in the distance, and it seemed to be moving in this direction.

His green eyes swept over the grass in front of him, and he saw that the grass seemed to be moving not far away, but there was no human figure there.

Is it a critter?

Brandi relaxed, and he looked at his watch, which was less than a minute.

But at that moment, he suddenly heard very clear footsteps, very close—so close that they were beside him!

(How come?) )

Before he could react at all, he was pushed to the ground by someone, and he couldn't move because of the tight press. The air in front of me seemed to be vague, and not only that, but there was also a cold touch of skin coming from the hand holding the statue. Something came to his mind.

"Illusion Spell?" He shouted in a panic, "No, get out of me!" ”

"Think beautiful, nerd!" The familiar and friendly voice in his ears made his heart stop beating for a while. The voice came directly above him, "You don't want to get rid of me in your life~"

"We're in this group!"

"That's right, share the blessings and share the difficulties!"

Three dark shadows appeared beside him, all of them seemingly carrying something on their backs. Now, Brandi didn't know who they were, and he wanted to stop it—but it was too late, when the statue in his hand suddenly glowed, and a hook jerked at his navel, and his feet floated.

The castle in front of him twisted and vanished, and he was walking in a whirlwind of colors and sounds—with his three unreassuring friends.

…………

In the Headmaster's room, Dumbledore stood calmly by the window, looking at a faint light that flickered through the distant door.
