Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 313: Die well

Views:

Isobel watched all this silently. Until now, she still didn't fully understand how Albert operated it, but Rowena Smith, who was lying there at the mercy of others, had proved that they were the final winners.

She survived and had a chance at revenge, all thanks to Albert.

However, Isobel still asked her doubts, "In fact, you have been prepared for a long time, even more than me. Although I don't know where you got that thing from, since you have such a black magic item, why don't you use it from the beginning? It is indeed reckless to confront Rowena Smith head-on."

In fact, a smart person like Isobel did not think that Albert would act rashly. There must be a reason, so she couldn't help but ask curiously what made him willing to take the risk.

"Reckless, no, I was just pretending to be reckless." Albert answered Isobel's question while searching Smith's body for magical items with an honesty detector. "After seeing my future self go back to the past, I knew I would win, but I don't know how I defeated Rowena Smith."

"But you didn't do anything." Isobel was even more confused.

Then she remembered one more thing. Albert did do it. According to him, he helped his "past self" break free from the control of the Imperius Curse faster.

Although Isobel thought it was risky, Albert did it, and even made a point of letting his past self know about his future self's existence. This was obviously forbidden, but this incident brought about a strange change in Albert's life.

"I originally thought that it would be my future self who would use the Banshee's Wail to knock everyone down and then take us away, but the result was beyond my expectation." Albert took away Rowena Smith's belongings and prepared to take away the valuables.

"There's no better way. I can only follow the intuition given to me by the Felicity."

"Have you taken the Felicis?"

"The result is not that bad, is it? Although the lucky potion cannot really bring luck, the effect is still very good." Albert took out a small bag of Galleons from Rowena's pocket, weighed it in his hand, and stuffed it directly into his own pocket.

"You haven't answered my question yet." Isobel said.

"From the Marauder's Map, I saw you and me using the Time Converter to go back to the past. This means that we survived Rowena Smith, and it wasn't that difficult... In the future, we will go back to clean up the mess."

"Why?"

Albert knew what Isobel was asking, and explained, "If I had to risk my life to survive, I would definitely leave a warning to my past self and let my past self go directly to Dumbledore. I value my life very much."

"Leaving an alert for your past self?"

Isobel was shocked by Albert's idea. Contacting your past self was undoubtedly a very risky thing, and many people even lost their lives because of it.

However, Albert's thought process is completely different from Isobel's. If he is prepared, seeing his future self will at most make his heart beat slightly faster.

With the guarantee of his future self, he can deal with Rowena Smith more boldly and complete the panel task at the same time.

However, what made Albert depressed was that his future self didn't seem to have any intention of showing up, so he used the guidance of the Felicity Potion to think quickly and divert Rowena Smith's attention. He then prepared to run away with Isobel and leave the remaining problems to his future self who was already well prepared to deal with.

"You still haven't answered my question."

"We want to know everything from Rowena Smith, so we naturally have to think of other ways to make him let down his guard." Albert handled the matter on his own. "People will let down their guard only when they think everything is under control."

In fact, Rowena Smith did tell everything, and Albert didn't waste so much time talking to him.

Of course, Albert's battle with Rowena Smith was not just a spur-of-the-moment battle. If he wanted to complete all the tasks regarding Rowena Smith, it was necessary for him to look a bit reckless like a Gryffindor. The Felixir helped him better guide and bring out his acting talent.

Rowena Smith was too confident in her own strength and had no intention of killing them immediately.

Of course, if Albert's actions hadn't been so amazing, they would probably have been fed to the eight-eyed giant spider.

The most important thing is that after he was hit by the Cruciatus Curse and fell down, he noticed that there were several more tasks in the task panel.

Among them, there was one that made Albert decide to take the risk.

Counterattack.

You have encountered an invincible enemy and have had an irreconcilable conflict with him. In this case, you should use fighting to solve the problem and let the other party know that you are not someone who can be easily manipulated.

The battle lasted ten minutes.

Reward: 10,000 experience, 1 skill point, and a designated skill from Rowena Smith.

Of course, the main reason why Albert dared to take the risk was that Rowena Smith did not want to kill them immediately, so he was not worried at all that he would be killed immediately by the other party.

Later, Albert stopped throwing the Avada Kedavra curse at the other party.

"I really don't know what's going on in your head!" Isobel sighed. She felt that Albert might not be telling the truth, but she was not prepared to continue asking.

After all, everyone has their own secrets.

Albert took away all the magic items from Rowena Smith and cast several spells on him. After making sure that this guy had no chance of escaping by Apparition, he woke him up.

"I'm here to fulfill my promise. Those two Cruciatus Curses were really painful. Now, I'm going to let you experience the pain in your balls, too."

As he said that, Albert raised his foot and kicked towards Rowena Smith.

In the silent forest, there was a faint sound of something breaking.

Rowena Smith, who was unable to move, had her eyes wide open, and her bloodshot eyeballs were about to bulge out of her sockets.

"Don't glare at me like that. I'm just fulfilling my promise." Albert retracted his gaze and returned his eyes to the task panel, muttering, "In this way, the revenge mission is also completed."

Having said that, Rowena Smith is really a good person!

He didn't bother to talk to the other party.

There are no less than ten tasks completed in this wave alone, which is really a lot of fat!

Isobel, who witnessed Albert committing the crime with her own eyes, seemed to be able to sense Rowena Smith's faint sadness, and wanted to step forward and kick him twice to calm herself down.

"Forget it, let's not delay any longer and kill this guy." Isobel suppressed the cruel thought, looked at Rowena Smith, and repeated softly, "Look, those big guys can't wait to enjoy the food."

Under Isobel's control, the eight-eyed giant spider slowly walked forward, and its huge body blocked Rowena Smith's sight.

In his eye membrane, the claws of the eight-eyed giant spider were gradually enlarging, and finally turned into the shadow of death and completely swallowed him.

Rowena Smith is dead, killed by an Acromantula.

Albert and Isobel slowly backed away, giving the Acromantula time to eat.

At this moment, a hurried sound of footsteps came quickly towards this side. Albert couldn't help but squint, put on his earmuffs again, and cast an Disillusionment Charm on himself. He quietly moved to the side and pointed his wand in the direction where the sound came from.

Who could it be

The owner of the voice finally appeared in Albert's sight, raising his wand to confront Isobel, but quickly put it away.

"Uncle Mog, why are you here?" Isobel lowered her wand and asked vigilantly.

"I'm so glad you're okay. Where's Albert?"

"He's fine."

"That's good." Mog turned his head to look in the direction where Albert was hiding, and said with relief, "That bastard Rowena didn't do anything to you, right? By the way, where is that guy?"

"Dead. He wanted to feed us to the Acromanthus, so we fed him to the Acromanthus." Albert said calmly.

"Good thing you died!" Mog's reaction was a little beyond their expectations. "That guy actually planned to kill you. He is such a jerk."

Do you just believe it

Albert was stunned.

He soon understood what was going on. The Wildsmith family's reaction was faster and more brutal than he had expected.

"Honestly, I didn't think you could solve the problem by yourselves. That's great. This way, Gerber wouldn't have to die." Mog's words made the two more confused, but he still kept talking to himself, "You go back to school first and don't reveal any flaws. I will help you deal with this. Rowena Smith will be missing forever."

"You're spying on us."

"No, I'm just providing hidden protection so that you won't die outside the school for no apparent reason." Mog explained quickly, "Someone will explain it to you clearly. Now go back to school and disguise yourself. Also, except for Garlon, don't take that guy's things, as it will easily lead to flaws."

Albert handed a few unknown items in his pocket to Mog. These things were indeed hot to handle. After thinking for a while, he threw the bag of Galleons to the other party. It would be best to clear up all the problems now.

"I'll get you a new batch of these Galleons later." Mog nodded with satisfaction. "Be careful when you go back."

After Albert and Isobel left, Mog squinted at Rowena's broken body, then took out a small two-sided mirror from his pocket and said, "Rowana really intended to attack them. However, he was fed to the eight-eyed giant spider instead. I am dealing with the follow-up."

"Death... is also good." Gerber murmured a little sadly.

"I'll go over and help you deal with the follow-up issues." Professor Broad stood up, nodded to the other two companions, and quickly left the hall.
