Boiling potions is also a very time-consuming and energy-consuming thing, but Ning An feels that he has fun in it, and even in a busy day, stirring armadillo juice or mashing scarab beetles in the room has become his greatest relaxation.

And Daphne and Calydora have no complaints about this busy life, although it is tiring, the practice of spells is very interesting.

With Calidora already in the hands of the Stun Charm, and Daphne's progress in both the Disarming Charm and the Armor Charm being rapid, Ning An estimated that it would not be long before they could begin training in battle.

At the same time, after the arrival of November, the Quidditch Cup at Hogwarts also began, and Ning An's biggest fear was flying lessons, and you certainly can't expect him to be interested in Quidditch, and Calidora said:

"Quidditch? Should I support Slytherin? But that sixth-grader, Marcus Flint, was a brainless idiot no matter how you looked at it. ”

So Calidora wasn't interested either.

Only Daphne, who was an avid Quidditch fan, and no matter what happened to the Slytherin team, it was the greatest joy for her to see Quidditch in action.

So whenever there was a Quidditch match, Ning'an and Caridora were the only ones left in the Room of Requirement, and Daphne would go to the Quidditch pitch to watch the game.

That afternoon, Ning An was stirring the mashed scarab beetle and ginger root when the door of the Room of Request was pushed open, and Daphne ran in.

"The game is over?" Calydora asked, pausing to practice.

"Uh-huh...... It's over" Daphne slapped her chest, paused for a few seconds, swallowed the food in her mouth, and continued:

"Oh my God, you must not know who the Gryffindor Seeker is? Is it Harry? Porter! - Well, I've brought you some apple pie and cake. ”

Daphne said as she put down a bag that appeared to contain several pieces of cake and pie.

"I wish I could learn the Transfiguration Charm too, you don't know how hard it would be to sneak all the way here avoiding others." Daphne sat on the ground with her knees crossed, and couldn't help but complain.

Calidora put away her wand and came to Daphne's side, took a small cake from the bag, and ate it silently, she had been practicing here since the end of her Charms class this morning, and now she was feeling hungry.

"Ning An, aren't you hungry? Why don't you come and have a bite to eat? Daphne shouted at Ning An, who was still stirring the potion.

"Here, I've got to wash my hands first, I don't want the apple pie to smell like armadillo bile." Ning An smiled and put the lid on the small pot, and then just boiled it for a few more hours.

Before this, he had already made five bottles of intelligence enhancement potion, and after showing it to Snape, the other party seemed to be very satisfied, although he didn't say it, Ning An still felt Snape's appreciative attitude, and then he taught Ning An a few tips to make the intelligence enhancer more perfect, which greatly enhanced the effect of the next few bottles of elixir.

At this time, in the responsive house, because of the needs of Ning An and others, there were also toilets, toilets, and even a few more beds, and they could even take a nap here after they were tired from practicing. Ning An already regarded this place as his second bedroom.

"Hmm......" Daphne put down a piece of cake in her hand and stuck out her tongue at Ning An

"It's disgusting......" she said, expressing her displeasure at the bile topic she had just had.

Ning An smiled, after he washed his hands, he also came to the two of them, sat down cross-legged, picked up a small piece of apple pie and stuffed it into his mouth

"Well, that's good." Tastes great.

"You guys can't believe how thrilling it was today." Daphne browled as she ate.

"Gryffindor's Seeker is Harry Potter!" She said and looked at Ning An, and seeing that the latter did not react, she continued to say happily:

"But his broomstick seems to be out of order, and it's very thrilling! I almost fell from the sky today. ”

"As far as I know, Harry's broom is a new Halo 2000, how could it be so prone to malfunction." Ning An said lightly:

"Hey, I'm afraid someone is trying to kill Harry with a curse."

"Wouldn't it!?" Daphne couldn't believe it, "This is Hogwarts ......"

"Hogwarts is part of the wizarding world, Daphne, and everyone around you is a wizard with the ability to cast spells." Ning An said expressionlessly:

"So, don't expect anything to be absolutely safe."

"Think about it, if you are the one who is cursed, do you have the power to resist?"

"So that's why we're practicing here, isn't that?" Daphne replied with a smile:

"Speaking of which, I'm almost done practicing spells, when will we start training in earnest."

Ning An thought about it, Daphne had indeed mastered a lot of practical spells, which should be enough to complete the sparring with him, after all, he didn't have much combat experience himself, so he simply said:

"In that case, let's just start practicing now."

"Okay." Hearing his words, Daphne stood up excitedly, and Calydora on the side was also a little impatient, after all, wizards of their age rarely had the opportunity to really use magic to fight others.

Ning An put the food aside, and the three of them came to the pile of stone pillars in the middle of the room, Ning An exhaled and said:

"Every time we fight against two people, one person will watch over us, and we will use it to release the curse after the battle." Then he spoke sternly

"Let me start by saying that we're going to be doing real combat, and the only purpose is to knock out the opponent, so I think we might get hurt......" He paused, and seeing that the two girls didn't change their expressions in the slightest, he continued:

"Of course, we don't have any death curses, so there shouldn't be a danger to our lives, but I just hope we have to get nervous, it's not a game, it's a real fight."

Hearing his words, both Daphne and Caridora nodded solemnly.

"Okay, Daphne, the two of us come first, and the winner after that takes on Calidora's challenge, and so on and so on, whoever wins will always accept the next person's challenge." Ning An didn't talk nonsense, and directly announced the rules.

Caridora nodded, and retreated into the distance, Ning An and Daphne glanced at each other, bowed to each other, and then slowly distanced themselves and stood on the side of the field.

"Let's go!" Caridora shouted crisply to start.

"Except for your weapons!" Ning An didn't hesitate to pull out his wand after hearing the start, and cast a disarming spell directly at Daphne.

Daphne was not slow to react, although her first thought was not to attack, but she also tensed her nerves, and at the beginning, she dodged behind a thick stone pillar.

The red light fell into the air, and seeing Daphne hiding behind the stone pillar, Ning An no longer fired a spell, but clenched his wand tightly, and slowly approached Daphne under the cover of the stone pillar.

Ning An had never fought with other wizards except for the time when he clashed with Malfoy, so he didn't have much experience, so he could only cross the river by feeling the stones, but fortunately, the experience in his previous life was better than that of Daphne, who was a teenager, and Daphne was suddenly a little flustered at this time.

This is different from casting a spell on a target with a wand, and the other party is a wizard who can dodge, defend, and attack her, which makes her feel as if she suddenly feels different from before.

"What's next? Stun Curse? Or knock him out first? Damn, why didn't he make a sound? Daphne listened vigilantly, and found that she suddenly couldn't hear Ning An's footsteps.

"Where is he hiding? Would you like to go over and have a look? Daphne was a little undecided, and she had never fought before, and she didn't know what to do at this point.

And Ning An was hiding behind a stone pillar not far from Daphne, and he was also a little unsure if Daphne was still there, whether he had moved to another place under the cover of the stone pillar like him.

"Silently."

He waved his wand, pointed to his feet, and whispered. Then he took small steps and ran quickly, but did not make any footsteps.

Daphne also felt that something was wrong at this time, she clenched her wand, and took advantage of the cover of the stone pillar to make a circle to see if she could go behind Ning An.

But just as she was on guard and just left the pillar, she saw Ning An trotting towards him around a pillar. The eyes of the two met instantly.

"Except for your weapons"

"Fainted"

Almost at the same time, the two shouted a spell, and a red light erupted from the tip of Ning An's staff, just hitting a yellow light emitted by Daphne, and the two rays of light collided together, and then there was a loud "boom", and it exploded, and the air wave rolled up a puff of dust and spread.

Fortunately, the bluestone floor and stone pillars are very solid, and they do not seem to be affected by the explosion. But the two of them couldn't care about anything else at this time, and at the same time as the first spell was launched, the two made different choices almost at the same time.

Daphne immediately ran towards the stone pillar next to her, trying to find the next cover, but Ning An chased after it without hesitation, and at the same time drew his wand and pointed at her, shouting:

"There are many obstacles!"

Then Daphne felt as if she had hit a wall, an invisible wall in front of her, and she was only one step away from hiding behind the stone pillar.

Ning An pointed his wand at Daphne, panting and said:

"Don't move, Daphne, it seems...... It's you who lose, don't struggle uselessly......"

Still holding her wand, Daphne turned her head slowly, and said with a helpless expression:

"It's not fair to use an obstacle charm"

"Fighting is never fair, Daphne." Ning An was still pointing his magic wand at her, he was also very nervous at the moment, the battle just now made his heart "pound" and beat non-stop, he didn't know what he was doing, he completely relied on instinct to fight.

"Alright, let's throw in the towel...... Don't think about resisting," Ning An was still gasping for breath.

"Know...... Excuse me...... I know, it's so painful for me to fall—" Daphne said as she breathed heavily, but when she said the last word, she suddenly pointed her wand at Ning An with lightning speed.

"Faint!" A flash of light struck Daphne, causing her to fall to the ground halfway through the spell.

Ning An sat on the ground, he had been nervously guarding Daphne just now, because with what he knew about this girl, Daphne was by no means a person who would surrender easily, and would definitely play some tricks at the last moment. I didn't expect it to be so.
