Chapter 263: Hogwarts History of Magic (14)
Phyllis ignored Lucius, and with an inexplicable smile on her face, she asked the other person, "Mr. Price, I didn't expect to see you here." ”
Carl Price is currently Director of Law Enforcement at the UK Ministry of Magic.
Seeing Phyllis, Carl touched his nose, a little embarrassed.
In British wizarding circles, Carl Price was known for his efforts to clean up Death Eaters, and as a result, he became the director of the Law Enforcement Division. Lucius Malfoy was originally a Death Eater, and although he found many excuses to avoid legal prosecution, no one in the wizarding world knew that he had followed the Dark Lord. As Carl, it was indeed a bit inappropriate to have a secret conversation with a former Death Eater in such an inaccessible woodland.
"yes, long time no see, how is Miss Kate?" Carl said pleasantly.
Carl Price is an outstanding graduate of Ravenclaw College and belongs to an important figure in the Ravenclaw College circle. After six years of teaching, Phyllis also recognized by Ravenclaw, and they had met and talked at Ravenclaw meetings. Because he had seen it before, he would say "long time no see".
Seeing that the two of them were chatting like no one, Lucius became angry. It is undeniable that he can get out of the turmoil after the Dark Lord loses power, and he has also made the family run more and more prominent, he is definitely a person with means and a city. However, Lucius had a typical Slytherin shortcoming, the so-called aristocratic etiquette was only shown in front of people of the same rank or higher, and they would show complete arrogance when facing people of inferior status.
For example, now.
"I don't know what to do, little girl!" Lucius scolded, drew his wand, and a red spell beam flew towards Phyllis.
After noticing Lucius's movements, Phyllis noticed it, and she dodged the spell with a light side, then quickly drew her bone-white wand and quickly wrote a rune "φ" in the air - this is the second magic rune that Phyllis has constructed, representing the power of thunder and lightning.
After the lightning rune was formed, it turned into a bolt of lightning and flew towards Lucius at an extremely fast speed. The speed of light was so fast that Lucius didn't even react, and a pale blue lightning chain was bound to him. There was a crackling burst of electricity, and the aristocratic patriarch, who had always maintained an elegant posture, collapsed to the ground, convulsing.
"Miss Kate, don't do that." Carl had a bit of a headache.
Not just any wizard who graduated from Ravenclaw House is eligible to attend Ravenclaw meetings, and Phyllis was able to receive an invitation, not only because she was recognized by Ravenclaw, but also because she had a deep study of ancient magic, especially runic magic.
In today's wizarding world, although there are not many wizards who study rune magic, there are always some, but there are not many wizards who can construct their own runes, let alone a wizard like Phyllis. As far as Karl knows, Phyllis Kate is the only wizard in the modern world who can construct two runes (Phyllis only says that she has constructed two runes). This is enough to prove how amazing the intelligence and strength of this young witch is.
Phyllis and Lucius, if the two face each other, Lucius is estimated to still lose, but he will never lose so quickly, and more importantly, he will not lose so badly. This guy is quite obsessed with the so-called "aristocratic demeanor", and I really don't know how angry he will be afterwards.
But that was later, and the most important thing now was to persuade the two to stop doing it, or to persuade Phyllis not to do it again.
"Why?" Phyllis looked at Carl with a grim smile on her face and said, "A Death Eater is nothing more than a pity to die...... By the way, it's a good place to bury the body, and what if I kill him, you say? ”
As she spoke, Phyllis swung her wand vigorously, and the lightning chain that bound Lucius suddenly increased, followed by Lucius's screams.
Oops, forgetting that Phyllis's parents died in the riot set off by the Dark Lord, Carl hurriedly said solemnly, "Miss Kate, I am still the director of the Law Enforcement Division. ”
"Where were you at the time of the accident?" Phyllis muttered muttered, and with a flick of her wand, the lightning chain was removed.
As Carl said, he is the director of the Law Enforcement Division after all, and Phyllis will not actively kill in front of him anyway, so he will definitely fall into passivity.
After the lightning chain disappeared, Lucius did not stand up. Karl walked over and looked at it, relieved that he was just unconscious, and it was fine.
"Miss Kate, you're so impulsive." Carl sighed, but didn't delve into the topic, "What are you doing here?" ”
Phyllis withdrew her wand and said, "By chance, I heard a very interesting rumor, so I planned to come and see, what about you?" Or what about you? ”
Karl straightened his collar and said, "The Law Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic has received a report that there is an anomaly in the Dark Forest, which may involve dark arts, and I will come and investigate." I don't know why Mr. Malfoy came, I just ran into him by chance. ”
Do you think I'll believe it? Phyllis muttered in her heart, but she didn't say anything, just nodded and said, "Okay, I won't bother, I'll talk about it later." ”
With that, Phyllis simply turned and left.
After watching Phyllis walk away, Carl stepped back a few steps away from Lucius and said, "All right, get up, she's gone." ”
Karl served as an Auror in the Ministry of Magic for a long time, and the Auror is a police officer in the wizarding world, and since he is a police officer, he needs to master a lot of knowledge and skills about the human body. When Lucius' body was examined, he found that Lucius was just pretending to be unconscious.
Of course, Carl also understood why Lucius was doing this. I'm afraid that Phyllis can't say it, and the reason why Lucius doesn't want to stand up is mainly because he doesn't know how to face this dilemma. Because of an unkind word, I was beaten up by someone and stood up? Cruel words? Maybe I'll be beaten up again, and if I don't say anything, it's too shameless. Instead of falling into embarrassment, it is better to pass out directly.
Lucius didn't expect to hide from Carl, and when he heard this, he opened his eyes, stood up against a tree, and said viciously, "I'm going to propose to the board of directors that that woman be expelled." ”
Upgraded from "little girl" to "that woman", Phyllis's impression in Lucius's heart has upgraded.
