Harry Potter: Charlie and the Candy Factory

Ever since Voldemort's conspiracy at Hogwarts was shattered that day and he was completely driven out by Charlie, life seemed to have returned to its original peace, ease and beauty, which made people feel a little unbelievable in a daze.

In the school, there was no more Quirrell and no more danger, so the four little wizards gave up their night walks every night and began to officially return to their daily studies.

Due to the sudden absence of Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers, Albus Dumbledore, as the principal, had to take up the honorable position at this time and personally acted as a substitute teacher for the young wizards for a period of time.

Quirrell's sudden disappearance did not cause much reaction among the young wizards. After all, for the professor who was submissive, stuttered and had no sense of existence, the most everyone could say was that they were not annoying. This was not achieved.

Some people like it to the point of paying special attention to it.

Instead, Principal Dumbledore came to teach. Due to his kind and gentle personality and his legendary experiences, he quickly captured the favor of many young wizards, making the Defense Against the Dark Arts class the most popular class in a short period of time.

Popular subjects…

…………………………

And turned his attention back to Charlie.

After returning to the factory, he seemed to have completely removed the stone that had been weighing him down, and there was nothing worth worrying about anymore.

All he had to do was to get up early every day, eat breakfast, read the newspaper, and then go to an open field with Aberforth on time to practice duel training with each other until he was exhausted.

………

In the open space of the candy factory, Charlie and Aberforth stood facing each other with wands in their hands, their eyes serious.

At this moment, it is already the end of November and December is about to arrive. Since it snowed that day, the weather has become extremely cold.

The cold wind swept through the air and never stopped for a moment, bringing with it a biting chill, like knives, cutting the exposed skin wantonly, forcing people to wrap themselves into a ball to avoid its attack.

However, in such bad weather, Aberforth and Charlie did not wear too many clothes.

According to Aberforth, extra things will only hinder your flexibility in a duel... Therefore, the two of them only wore simple shirts and trousers, with no other coverings.

But even so, whenever Russell brought hot tea, there was no hint of coldness or trembling on their bodies. Instead, there were beads of sweat flowing down Charlie's face, faintly radiating outwards.

With heat......

"Come quickly, kid! I'm waiting for you!!"

The confrontation between the two did not last long. Soon, Aberforth took the lead and said this to Charlie with a grin and a provocative wave.

"Don't cry."

Charlie just snorted lightly, flicked his wrist in an instant, and caused the wand to bloom with red light. A familiar chain cut through the air, collided with the biting cold wind, and pointed directly at Aberforth not far away.

"hey-hey……"

Aberforth raised the corners of his mouth, chuckled a few times, and then started to move.

The reaction of the man who was over a hundred years old was even worse than that of the young man who was in his twenties. He took a step forward, then quickly twisted his upper body, and passed by with a

His posture avoided the incoming magic.

At the same time, his hands were never idle. He waved his arms forward vigorously. The wand with the dragon nerve as its core and the mahogany wood as its core was like an activated fire dragon. In an instant, surging flames poured out.

came out, spread out, and turned into a sea of ​​​​fire that filled the sky, covering the sun that was not obvious at all, and swarmed towards Charlie with an extremely terrifying momentum.

It seemed that he could feel a burning heat burning his cheeks, and Charlie couldn't help but feel a bit of pressure on his face.

"Are all of you named Dumbledore so good at playing with fire?"

As he spoke, he waved the wand in his hand towards the flames covering the sky again.

"Rumble--"

The surrounding flat ground collapsed, and a high earth wall bulged and curved above Charlie's head. In an instant, a huge arc-shaped dome was erected, firmly blocking the attack from the front and above.

"boom!!!"

Immediately afterwards, there was continuous and indiscriminate bombing, which rang in Charlie's ears. It also blew up the fortress he had just built and made it tremble.

Just when Charlie pursed his lips and planned to continue to strengthen his defense, Aberforth's voice suddenly sounded.

"Remember! Never let your enemy disappear before your eyes!"

He was shocked at first. Just when he was about to cast magic, the earth wall in front of him had been blown open.

Albusford did not know when he appeared in front of Charlie. Taking advantage of the crack in the earth wall, he raised his leg and kicked it out so hard.

With a muffled sound of "Peng", Charlie fell backwards and flew out. Aberforth's shoe prints were clearly printed on his white shirt...

The hard defense then completely collapsed and turned into the same soil as usual, returning to its original position.

Likewise, it also means that this duel has come to an end...

"Hey...how are you feeling?"

Aberforth had a proud smile on his face. He first put away his wand, then patted the dust on his robe, and finally stretched out his hand and pulled up Charlie, who was still clutching his chest and grinning.

"It hurts... damn, I didn't expect you to use such force."

"What are you thinking? We are dueling..."

Aberforth shook his head, as if describing a very simple truth, even his tone was extremely calm, without any change.

"...When I return this kick in the future, you won't say that."

"Hehe..." Aberforth's smile became brighter. "I'm looking forward to it."

………

In fact, Charlie did not use his full strength. Whether it was the more advanced use of transformation or the fire shield that had just defeated Voldemort for him not long ago, he did not use it.

And this is actually what Charlie requires. After all, what he wants to learn is the opponent's fighting skills... Only when the two are officially put on the same level can Charlie's shortcomings be truly exposed.

"Maybe I didn't tell you how to act when I taught you?"

Aberforth scratched his chin, with a hint of confusion in his tone.

"Your steps stayed in place from beginning to end, and there was no movement from beginning to end."

Charlie raised his eyebrows. He lowered his head and looked at the land under his feet, thoughtful for a moment.

Just when he looked at the other party again and planned to ask something, Russell held a letter high and ran over from a short distance, interrupting his words.

"Master Charlie!! Here is a letter for you!"

"Whose is it?" Charlie simply suppressed the question for the time being, planning to ask again when he had time later.

He patted the clear footprints on his chest and asked casually

"It's...it's a letter from Minister Cornelius Fudge!"

Charlie couldn't help being stunned for a second, but then he quickly reacted.

I almost forgot about him.
