Hogwarts: Magical Elegy

"Hey~ As a genius of Ravenclaw, do you also want to attend our dean's banquet?"

Tom, who was also dressed brightly, came to the three of them. His tone seemed to be praising, but if you listened carefully, you felt that he was being arrogant. You are so powerful, why do you come to our college's banquet?

"Of course, your dean invited us to his banquet."

Xifa was not angry, but smiled and said to Tom.

To the young wizards behind him, the two of them were like old friends who had known each other for a long time.

"Hmph——" Tom turned his back to everyone and hummed in an inaudible voice. In this verbal confrontation, Tom was at a disadvantage again.

"Merry Christmas, Xifa, I hope you have a good time tonight."

"By the way, a friendly reminder, the banquet venue has been changed to the auditorium. All students can attend!" After saying that, Tom stepped forward and passed by the three people.

"I wish you a Merry Christmas too, Tom." As expected, when he heard the word "Tom", Tom's body stiffened slightly.

Fortunately, the little wizards following him followed closely, so that he would not appear to be running away.

"Xifa, do you think what Riddle said is true?" Elise puffed out her cheeks and said angrily. Now, she could clearly feel the malice of others. Luna also cast her gaze on the side.
"Of course it's true. Tom is very hypocritical, but in front of so many people, he wouldn't deceive us with such a lie that is obvious at a glance." Xifa spread his hands and said with a smile, as to why Tom treated her so much.

He had some malicious intentions, and he also had some speculations.

First of all, without the three of them, or in other words, without himself, Tom's magic talent should be the most talented among the students in this class or even currently in school.

He should be the center of attention in the castle. Unfortunately, his appearance has dimmed his glory a lot.

Fortunately, Tom is not like Xifa, who treats most young wizards like an old father looking after his children. He likes to use his appearance and language to gain the admiration of his peers. Even many professors are deceived by his hypocritical face.

.

I have to say, maybe it’s the war, maybe it’s the tutoring, but many young wizards are still very mature in their thinking.

However, some time ago, Xifa spread his transformation skills widely and gained the favor of many young wizards. In fact, many people in his social circle were discussing that Tom might not be as powerful as Xifa.

How could Tom endure this? He suppressed this trend by clever means of coercion and inducement.

However, Xifa is the source of the problem. Only by facing Xifa in a duel and defeating him can he completely consolidate his title as the number one in his grade.

Okay, let’s not talk about Tom anymore, the scene returns to Xifa to comfort the two girls, and they are preparing to enter the auditorium.

As soon as he walked out of the stairs and returned to the lobby on the first floor, Xifa suddenly felt something was wrong.

"The three of us haven't received any news about the change of location, right?" After listening to Xifa's question, Luna and Elise looked at each other and nodded.

Did the professor forget us? Or did he just change the location temporarily and did not have time to notify us? Or is the notification on the way and we are already here?

However, there was already a lot of laughter flowing out of the door of the auditorium on the front steps of the hall.

It was just a Christmas party, a day for everyone to play happily together. There were so many bad things. Xifa shook his head and smiled casually.

However, before I could continue my journey towards the auditorium.

Suddenly, a wave of malice suddenly came from the side.

Who is it? Malice towards him? Different from jealousy, this is a naked murderous intention. Xifa quickly turned his head, the murderous intention was still there, but there was nothing in his sight.

Could it be...

With the light of aura exploding in his mind, Xifa took out his magic wand with his left hand, then raised his hand and waved, "The compass is coming."

The compass flew out of Elise's satchel and fell into Xifa's right hand.

With a thought, the magic circle that sealed the soul bloomed in Xifa's hands.

"I see you!"

As the fluctuation reached them, a figure appeared in the sight of the three people... At first, there was an expression of surprise, but when Xifa saw that the figure looked completely different from the previous blur, Xifa's smile froze.

The figure with translucent eyes has the same clothes and body shape as myself, except for the face, which is a flat blank. What is this? Do you want to imitate me and replace me?

Due to some thoughts flashing through Xifa's mind, his already slow movements due to his physical weakness and his slight hesitation gave the faceless figure time to fully react.

The faceless figure in front of him recognized that Xifa was holding an alchemical weapon that would cause great harm to creatures like him.

While Xifa was hesitating, the faceless figure suddenly turned around and ran up the stairs.

Could it be that this is also Dumbledore's plan? - There is no life-threatening situation, don't notify me. Do you mean this? I want to chase? Paralyze the other party?

Xifa understood some of Dumbledore's thoughts.

Gather all the outstanding little wizards in the auditorium for a hurried party, release all the "cannon fodder little wizards", and take the opportunity to check if any of them behave abnormally.

In other words, I should catch up now. However, I have to hide some of my trump cards...

“If you don’t verify your identity, don’t trust anyone!”

Luna and Elise understood. They picked up the wands, and their blue pupils changed slightly. The bottom of one's pupils was covered with black feather tattoos, and the bottom of one's pupils was covered with red dragon scales.

In this state, although they cannot directly see the figure of the faceless man, the fluctuation of magic power on one side can hardly escape their eyes.

The two women slowly retreated to the corner of the hall. Ogg was not here at this time and might have gone out to move the new Christmas tree.

When Xifa left, they were the only two people left in the entire hall.

Outside the gate of the castle, there was the cheerful noise of a group of little wizards, and elegant music came from the gate of the auditorium on the steps.

The two of them were nervous in the middle, which was incompatible with the cheerful environment.

The meaning of Xifa's last words is that someone may be impersonating him. According to the agreement, it can only be believed if the person releases the patron saint. Because the patron saint cannot deceive people.

"Tsk!"

He concentrates on manipulating the transformation technique and letting the ground push him forward, while he is distracted by condensing the soul-burning curse. This makes Xifa not very good at grasping the accuracy of the curse's trajectory.

As expected, the curse missed. However, Xifa's actions also caused the faceless figure who was originally walking leisurely to start running away.

Because the faceless man is sure that Xifa can really see him and can also send out messages that can hurt him.

At first, when it saw Xifa, it could only see itself. It ran for two steps and then stopped, waiting to see if Xifa would continue to chase it, as if it was playing tricks on Xifa.

But now, although he couldn't see his expression, Xifa guessed that he must have a look of fear.

Because, the faceless man's escape speed accelerated a lot, and he ran away without looking back.

One miss will alert the other party.

Xifa sighed secretly in his heart and sped up the squirming speed of the ground. (Refer to Lissandra - Funny)
