Hogwarts: Magical Elegy

"Disgusting!"

The girl's soft voice sounded in the stone house.

These words, filled with disgust, echoed in the stone house.

The two weirdos did not refute or agree.

Because, they are already dead...

Time goes back a few minutes.

As mentioned before, this is a village composed of simple stone houses.

During the infiltration process.

Xifa took a few glances at the entire village.

The roofs of many houses were destroyed by internal forces.

Xifa was still wondering what the reason was.

Until the weirdo discussed the insect queen, he took out his wand and waved it, casting unknown magic on the insect eggs.

Only then did Xifa realize that it was the movement caused by the birth of the insect king in the room.

This is probably the only undamaged house in the village.

Even if there are weird accomplices secretly.

It's probably just a handful of miscellaneous fish.

Under the influence of magic, the insect eggs vibrated at high speed and made a strong buzzing sound.

That's a good time to cover up and sneak in.

Xifa, who originally planned to deal with the weirdo, acted decisively.

Without hesitation, he used the Sword of Gryffindor to dig a hole in the wall large enough for him to pass through.

He touched it quietly.

The two weirdos are very reassured about the safety here.

They never thought that outsiders would appear in this lawless place.

Even through the loopholes in the East African Rift Valley in the outside world, I accidentally ended up in this swamp of chaos.

It is also impossible to pass through the contaminated area filled with Chaos Cave Worms.

so.

I lost my vigilance, even if there were some unusual sounds mixed in with the buzzer.

Subconsciously, they also thought that the high-frequency buzzing sound was acting on the stone house.

The simple stone house is built of stones using rough techniques.

It is also normal to make some crackling sounds under resonance.

In this way, Xifa easily sneaked behind them.

Without any suspense, Xifa used the sharp edge of the plain and simple Gryffindor sword to sever their throats with one strike.

Even at the moment of taking action, Xifa was worried that their body structure was different from ordinary people.

Use more force to remove the entire head.

In this way, Xifa easily assassinated the two weirdos in the room silently.

After that, it was Xifa's own work of collecting intelligence.

It was at this time that Alice said her first words full of disgust.

Because there is nothing gained from the surface of the weirdo's body.

After death, the granulation on their body surface actually retracted.

Driven by curiosity.

Xifa dissected the corpse of the weirdo.

Gryffindor's sword is much sharper than a scalpel.

Xifa spread the corpses on the ground with a single stroke.

Under the skin are muscles composed of squirming granulations like nematodes. Even if they are cut into pieces, not a trace of liquid is leaked out as blood.

There were no internal organs, and the abdominal cavity was filled with nematode-like muscles.

Xifa understood why Alice said she was disgusted.

It's like a human skin balloon, but the gas is just these nematodes that are no longer wriggling.

The soul resides in such a body.

Imagine the feeling and scene of feeling bugs crawling under your skin all the time.

Tsk——

I didn't think it was anything at first.

After Alice said this, Xifa couldn't continue the dissection.

He took out the incendiary bombs that Elise made for herself, which were necessary to destroy corpses and eliminate traces.

After a burst of creaking, everyone in the entire stone house except Xifa and Alice.

The remaining non-stone objects are the insect eggs in the center.

Xifa came to the egg.

Probably the magic was interrupted.

The eggs began to glow with lavender fluorescence.

It's like matching signals.

The two weirdos are very single.

Xifa searched them both inside and outside, but could not find any written record of the insect king they talked about.

It is not appropriate to leave it alone or carry it with you.

Simply, Xifa used the smallest scale flame holy sword magic to chop the insect eggs into pieces.

"Wait a moment!"

Just when Xifa was about to take action, Alice spoke.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Insect King of the Chaos Cave Worm! Something big is going to happen!"

"How to say?"

Xifa put down his sword, but did not put it away, and faced the girls flying in front of him.

He interjected in confusion and asked.

"There is a big difference between the Insect King and ordinary cave worms!"

"Ordinary cave worms can only survive in this chaotic and polluted environment."

"But the Insect King can survive in this world!"

"Moreover, the mature insect king is as big as a giant dragon!"

"They feed on human flesh and soul."

"Normal magic has no effect on it. If it appears on the battlefield after being domesticated, it will be a big killer on the battlefield!"

Looking at Alice with a solemn expression, Xifa asked with a strange expression.

"Alice, just ordinary soldiers, wizards can apparate! Just run away if you can't beat them!"

Seeing Xifa's incredulous expression, he seemed to be saying, are people in the magic world so stubborn?

Alice was startled at first, and then burst into laughter regardless of the image. In the end, it even affected her flying posture, causing her to fly up and down like a big fluttering moth.

"Hahaha! Xifa, have you never been on the battlefield?"

"No! Otherwise, how did the seal on my body come from?" Xifa helplessly spread his hands.

"No, I mean, the real front line!" Alice finally stopped laughing and asked with a solemn expression. "The kind of front line filled with smoke and artillery fire!"

Xifa shook his head and said that he had indeed never participated in such a war.

The only time he went to the battlefield was when he went directly to Grindelwald for a one-on-one duel.

I have never experienced fighting at the lower level.

Seeing this, Alice nodded as if it was true and continued.

"No need to say more about ordinary people, they don't have any magical means."

"If a wizard wants to apparate over a long distance, he needs to be in an area covered by a magic net."

"Like wanted criminals, they apparate and never use their own wands."

"Nowadays, war is a battle for territory."

"In the area covered by our own magic net, our own people can easily get support, and they can escape even if they cannot be defeated."

"On the contrary, once a spell is cast, especially a large-scale spell, it will be detected by the Ministry of Magic."

"Not only can you not escape by apparating, but you will also be surrounded by a large number of enemies!"

"In short, once the Insect King appears on the battlefield, it will be a nightmare for the coalition forces!"

Xifa remained speechless for a moment.

This thing can be used as a tank.

If the coalition forces cannot find a means of restraint, they will need to use a large number of lives to make up for the lack of combat power.

"What's the purpose of leaving it? Do you know how to control it? Or should you give it to the professors and let them find the weakness of the Insect King?"

Xifa walked around the insect eggs and suddenly asked.

"Of course not! Insect King is just a title. If you like, you can be called Insect King, Insect Emperor... as long as you are happy!"

"I let you keep it because it can help me come to you, or help you gain the ability to cast spells in this secret realm!"

"They have a special energy at their core."

"It is the existence of this energy that can help chaotic creatures like them acquire the ability and qualifications to appear in this world."

"In the same way, this energy can also help me offset the backlash of time magic, and can also suppress the seal on you!"

It turned out to be like this...

While Alice was explaining, Xifa understood Alice's intention.

When she finished speaking, Xifa did not hesitate to ask how he could help Alice counteract the backlash.

Alice didn't answer, she looked at Xifa for a long time, and suddenly, she smiled.

"I'm glad you thought of helping me first! But, I hope you gain the ability to cast spells!"

"Because...there are changes in this secret realm that I can't understand!"
