Next, Kyle sits in the common room, keeping an eye on the map of the live spots.

It was about ten minutes before Quirrell's name finally appeared on the map of the live spots.

Kyle's eyes lit up and he got up and left the common room.

On the map of the living spots, Quirrell did not go to the Great Hall, but instead made a large circle around the castle.

Kyle follows him all the way, but in order not to be detected, the two ...... Or maybe maybe there was a corridor between the three of them.

Anyway, I have a map of the live point in hand, and I'm not afraid that I will lose it.

Wandering around the way, Quirrell finally stopped, and Kyle looked left and right, hiding in an empty classroom next to him.

After a few minutes, Quirrell's name began to move rapidly in the direction of the Great Hall.

Once he was sure he was far away, Kyle left the empty classroom and hurried through an empty side corridor in front of him to where Quirrell had been.

As soon as he turned the corner, a foul smell entered Kyle's nostrils.

The smell was even better than the potion Mikel had brewed, and even if Kyle had prepared for it, his eyes were blackened by the smoke.

Then he heard a muffled grunt and the sound of huge soles of feet dragging on the ground.

Not far in front of Kyle, a twelve-foot-tall behemoth was moving in this direction.

Its skin was dull and gray as granite, and it had a small walnut-like head on top of it, which made it look large and stupid.

In addition, its short legs are as thick as tree stumps, and underneath are flat, coarse, calloused feet.

The disgusting stench emanated from it.

Kyle recognized it at a glance as the big guy he was looking for.

And it's also the largest mountain troll.

"Rich!" Kyle excitedly took two steps forward.

Kyle's move was naturally seen by the troll, and it roared angrily and quickened its pace.

Since it was a two-way rush, one person and one giant monster quickly met.

The troll let out another roar of rage, and then raised the wooden stick in his hand, as if trying to smash the ant in front of him into the way.

"Wait a minute, I can take you to eat!" Kyle exclaimed.

The voice worked, and the troll immediately stopped moving, tilting his walnut-like head, trying to figure out what that meant.

"You're hungry, I'll take you to eat!"

Kyle repeats it again.

"Eat! Rice! ”

This time, the trolls understood.

It lowered the stick in its hand and let out a grunt of unknown meaning.

"Yes, eat!" Kyle endured the stench and showed his friendly side as much as he could, saying word by word, "Follow me, I'll take you!" ”

He tried to take a step back, and the troll immediately followed.

"It's done!"

Kyle was overjoyed and quickly took out a box, opened it, and placed it on the ground.

Next, just look for an opportunity to get the troll to step on the chest.

Kyle held his breath and took two steps back again.

……

But just then, the unexpected happened.

"Ahh

A piercing scream made the troll's newly raised foot instantly let go.

It turned awkwardly, blinking stupidly, trying to see what the sound was coming from.

Soon it saw that it was a small brown dot.

"Ahh

Hermione's screams widened when she saw the troll spotting herself.

The troll thumped its head with its palm in some pain, and in its small, ugly eyes, Hermione's appearance gradually changed to that of a round wicked bird.

In an instant, the troll's sanity vanished.

It forgot about Kyle's existence and began to walk towards Hermione.

"I ......"

“***！”

The Kyles are numb.

One step, just the last step, that troll is his, who would have thought that a Hermione would be killed halfway through, and his plan would be completely ruined.

Isn't she in the bathroom...... What are you doing when you come out, can't you cry a little longer?!

Kyle thumped the wall in frustration and chased after him shouting words like "eat" and "food" in an attempt to attract the troll's attention again.

Either way, he couldn't have watched Hermione die.

But for some reason, the troll seems to have decided that Hermione, and no matter what Kyle says, it turns a deaf ear.

What's worse is that because of fear, Hermione, who originally wanted to escape, fell to the ground with a weak leg.

She cowered against the wall, seemingly ready to faint at any moment.

Step by step, the troll approached her, raising the stick in his hand as he went.

"What's going on!"

Kyle sighed and raised his wand in his hand.

"Yuga Dim Leviosa!"

The stick suddenly flew out of the troll's hand, rose high into the air, and slowly turned around again, falling down and striking its master's head.

With a bang, the troll swayed in place and fell face down to the ground with a boom that shook the entire hallway.

Hermione sat there and asked, dumbfounded, "...... Dead? ”

"Bah, bah, how can you repay the favor!"

Kyle walked over briskly and checked on the troll.

Luckily, there was a heartbeat.

Kyle breathed a sigh of relief.

He really didn't want to use it that way if he could.

Although the troll is stupid, it can still understand his words, and who knows if this stick will lose the little intelligence it has.

That's not what Kyle wants.

But it's useless to talk about that now.

Kyle summoned the chest on the ground and was about to stuff the troll inside, but he thought about it and took out his wand first.

"Whirlwind sweep!"

"Clean up!"

After releasing several cleanup spells in a row, the troll's body was much cleaner, and the stench was much lighter.

Kyle was tempted to continue, but the sudden sound of messy footsteps not far away dissuaded him from the idea and hurriedly stuffed the troll into the chest.

"Remember, you didn't see anything." Kyle looked at Hermione and said with a serious expression, "There are no trolls, you fell by accident, you know?" ”

Hermione glared and nodded dumbly.

"Good."

Kyle carried the box and helped Hermione up like no one else.

"Hermione!"

"Thank goodness you're here!"

On the other side of the hallway, Harry and Ron sped over.

"There's a troll in the underground classroom!"

Harry gasped, "Headmaster Dumbledore told us all to go back to the dormitory, you...... Well? Kyle, are you there too? ”

"Yes, I was about to go to the Great Hall when I met Miss Granger here."

Kyle smiled and asked, "You just said that there are trolls in the underground classroom?" What the hell is going on, how could there be such a creature as a troll at Hogwarts? ”

"Yes, I promise I'm not kidding."

Ron quickly said, "Professor Quirrell told us that at the Halloween feast, he passed out after saying that. ”

"Yes...... That's dangerous. ”

Kyle said with a serious face, "Trolls are not something we can deal with, I'll go first, and you guys should go back to the tower." ”

Hermione didn't say a word the whole time, and she looked at Kyle in shock.

This calm expression, calm tone......

If she hadn't experienced everything herself, she would have thought Kyle was telling the truth.

Why is he so skilled?

Is this person really the first in the grade?
