"Maka, this feels weird—I've never met a soul as strange as this. He's like... like... half missing?"
"'Half missing'?"
When he heard Luna's words, Maka couldn't help but feel a little surprised - he still believed in Luna's sensing ability, but Luna said that not only did Enns's body not have one more soul, but it was half missing.
Obviously, this is definitely inconsistent with the state that Enns showed before.
"Okay, I understand... Luna, thank you for your help!" Maka said while thinking doubtfully on the side.
But in fact, the answer was much simpler than he imagined.
"Maka, over there! There's another Ens coming out of the wall over there!"
Suddenly, Luna turned around, pointed at the side wall and shouted. Immediately afterwards, Maka saw Luna's finger suddenly pointing at something invisible to the naked eye, quickly drawing an arc in the air, and finally landed on Alexander's body.
"Well."
At that moment, Alexander's eyes froze suddenly, as if he was frozen. The next moment, he suddenly reached out his hand and snatched the snake staff that Maka had just given to Hermione.
"It won't be able to exert its true power in your hands, and neither can the 'old me' - but now, I'm sure I'm the most suitable wizard in the world to own it!"
When "Alexander" said these words, although his voice did not change at all, his tone was obviously more inconsistent than before.
"Luna, Hermione, stay away from him immediately!"
Just as Maka spoke to remind him, Harry, who had been guarding the door according to Maka's instructions from the beginning, also reacted very quickly and bent down, suddenly stepped on the ground and rushed over.
"boom-"
In an instant, Alexander suddenly swung his snake staff back, and a large oncoming flame immediately forced Harry to stop and turn around, temporarily dodging away.
But in fact, Harry's goal was actually achieved, because Luna and Hermione, who might have been Alexander's targets, had taken this opportunity to retreat.
"Luna!"
Hermione shouted to Luna on the other side, and Luna nodded to her in agreement, and then both of them stretched out their wands and waved them at the same time.
The next second, two red magic arcs of light burst out from the tips of their staffs simultaneously, shooting towards where Alexander was.
But it is worth mentioning that Alexander was still able to deal with this calmly. I saw him taking a step back in time when Luna and Hermione cast the two disarming spells.
Then, with a "stab" sound, the two arcs of light immediately collided together.
Seeing this, Hermione and Luna subconsciously wanted to withdraw their wands at the same time to interrupt the spell casting. Because they all learned in the Charms class that the connection of spells will cause the magic of both parties to become entangled with each other and cannot be easily separated.
And if both parties use the same wand core, it will even cause more serious adhesion and eventually trigger the flashback spell.
However, Maka suddenly rushed ahead of them, waved at Harry and said:
"Add another one - the middle!"
Before he finished speaking, Harry obeyed Maka's order almost reflexively. He pulled out his wand and shot out a disarming spell that he was very good at, accurately hitting the red light connecting Hermione and Luna. In the center of the arc, no time was wasted.
And at the same time, the three magic spells actually merged together and deflected straight to Alexander on the other side in the direction of Harry's spell.
This response sounds complicated, but in reality it only takes a few seconds. When Alexander also waved the snake staff and was forced to cast a magic spell to resist, the situation between the four of them in the room suddenly became a situation where Harry and the other three were wrestling with him.
It must be said that Slytherin's silver snake staff has an amazing effect in increasing the power of spells. According to Maka's estimation, even if it is not as good as the Elder Wand, which was one of the Three Holy Artifacts of Death, it is probably not too far behind.
Of course, in the final analysis, it is just a slightly stronger spell-casting tool. If it were in the past, Maka wouldn't even care too much.
Unlike Ollivander, who always talks about "the wand chooses the wizard", Maka has always held the opposite view.
However, compared to Harry's wands, the snake staff in Alexander's hand was much more powerful.
Soon, he saw that he was fighting against Harry and the three of them alone but still managed to win. Not only that, he even had a tendency to forcefully push back those three disarming spells.
When Harry realized that he might not be able to do anything to the other party through a battle of spells, he simply decided to continue casting spells while raising his wand, and walked forward step by step under pressure.
The sword of Gryffindor was held upside down with his other hand, reflecting the bright light as he moved forward.
"Oops."
Suddenly, Maka frowned slightly because he thought of a problem - although Harry had a nearly indestructible sword in his hand, it certainly couldn't hit Alexander on the head with one strike.
Therefore, even if Harry could gradually approach the opponent, the most he could do was put the sword to the opponent's neck. If "Alexander" was determined not to be threatened, there was obviously nothing Harry could do against him.
And the actual situation is indeed developing like this.
Not long after, Harry finally walked up to Alexander despite the stalemate spell, and even stretched out his sword to point at the opponent, but the latter remained unmoved.
Not only that, Alexander used his strength again to push the joints of the four magic light arcs further apart. For this reason, Harry, who finally got close to the opponent, could only take a few steps back.
However, it was at this moment that Maka, who had been standing aside and watching the battle, inexplicably resisted Enns who was lying on the bed, and then moved straight towards the position where the four magic arcs of light came together. Walked over.
Facing Maka who forced his way in, Harry and the other three friends hurriedly put away the spells. And what's even more surprising is that Alexander on the other side actually canceled his curse at about the same time!
"Is that true...?"
Seeing this scene, Maka couldn't help but stare at the inexplicably dazed "Alexander", squinted her eyes and muttered secretly in her heart.
It seemed that he finally noticed something from the other party's performance.
