The two of you chased me up the stairs and corridors of Hogwarts.

What surprised Xifa was that he passed by the air corridors leading to other castles several times, but the faceless man still shuttled back and forth in the main castle.

Did he lay a trap? Xifa silently took Fox's tail feathers into his left hand and held them close to the wand.

Once something goes wrong, immediately inject magic and call Fox to the rescue.

The two of them chased each other, and they walked together through the candlelight corridor, where Xifa's lonely figure was reflected in the metallic armor.

Passing by the aisles filled with potted plants on both sides, the grass blades of the potted plants danced with the air flow driven by Xifa's shuttle.

while passing an open window. The faceless figure jumped out of the window without hesitation.

Before, Xifa would have hesitated. After all, the only way he could move on the castle wall at that time was to use elf magic.

But now, his transformation technique is close to being able to transform objects around him at will.

So, he rushed out of the window immediately after.

At this time, in the open space outside the castle, there was a group of ordinary little wizards happily having snowball fights and building snowmen.

They chanted spells loudly to condense the snowflakes on the ground into snowballs, then pointed at the person opposite and shouted the spells to launch the snowballs. The scene was so lively.

Suddenly someone screamed. They were looking for shelter, but at this time, Xifa had already slipped to the ground with the help of the city wall.

After landing, Xifa's posture was like surfing, and the ground was like waves. He quickly disappeared from the sight of everyone in amazement.

"Hey, he's the one we can't get. We're lucky if we get to meet him."

The little witch screamed, and her companion pulled her where she was, and after attracting her attention, she joked.

"No, that's not it. Xifa jumped from the building!" the little witch stammered and said to her companion.

The little wizards around heard her words and quickly raised their heads and focused their attention on the castle.

On the first floor...the second floor...it wasn't until the seventh floor that I noticed a window was open.

Everyone present was in an uproar.

Xifa was not in the mood to care about how much commotion he had caused. The cold air outside made his mind clearer.

He was certain that the faceless figure was stalling for time, preparing to take him to a fixed place at the right time.

Door key? When Xifa thought about this fixed time teleportation magic, he was secretly vigilant and would never let any suspicious objects get close to him.

But then, Xifa gave up this speculation. Currently, all teleportation magic is prohibited in Hogwarts Castle, including door keys. Except for the principal and the hired elves.

And it is returning to the main castle of Hogwarts, otherwise why doesn't it escape to the Forbidden Forest?

If there is another round, if I don't use my trump card or take magic replenishing potion, my magic power will be exhausted.

Xifa silently estimated his magic power, and he made up his mind that if it tempted him to jump out of the window again, he would give up the chase.

Breaking into the lobby on the first floor again.

Under the vigilant eyes of the two women, Xifa passed by them without even looking at them. Now was not the time to waste magic power on showing off his patron saint.

Returning to the castle, the faceless figure no longer led him through the gloomy and remote passages. Instead, go straight up the stairs.

When passing the stairs on the fourth floor, several little wizards suddenly appeared on the stairs.

In their frightened expressions, Xifa, who was rushing toward them at high speed, suddenly changed lanes and slid past the wall beside them.

Then, the air flow driven by Xifa woke them up.

"Cool--" They discussed that they must master this transformation technique.

Naturally, Xifa didn't know about their subsequent conversation.

Sifa passed them and continued to chase the faceless figure.

Unknowingly, the two chased them to a secret corridor on the seventh floor.

Suddenly, Xifa felt that magic was hindering him. The movements of the faceless figure also became slower.

You know, since I have the status of a teaching assistant, the castle should not suppress the effects of my magic.

Could it be that "Is it finally time to reveal your trump card?"

Xifa cheered up and sent a support signal to Fox first, and then Xifa concentrated all his magic power.

The suspension of the transformation technique freed up almost all of Xifa's energy to release the soul-burning and soul-burning magic.

A light blue light filled the entire corridor. Just when Xifa's spell was about to hit the faceless figure.

Unexpectedly, the faceless man suddenly turned around and smiled at himself. Yes, at this moment, there was an extra mouth on the face of the faceless man. It seemed to be just to give Xifa a mocking smile.

Then, under Xifa's dull and solemn gaze, the faceless man exploded as expected!

This...yes, it's really trying to frame me! Burning souls and burning souls are black magic!

Xifa didn't have time to turn around completely.

"Boom——" The ripples in the air at the end suddenly dissipated.

A powerful magic spell penetrated and came towards Xifa.

"fainted"

"Armor Protection"

What followed was another piece of magic.

"Dumbledore, give me an explanation?"

It seemed that he was very dissatisfied with Dumbledore's behavior, and the tone of the old man who asked the question was not friendly.

"Calm down, Armando, Xifa is our student, you should not use powerful binding magic on them without asking the reason."

After a moment of silence, Principal Armando Dippet seemed to realize that he had gone too far, and his tone softened slightly.

"Albus, do you know what we are doing here? Why can the little wizard come to us?"

When the dust cleared, the principal in complicated attire appeared in Xifa's sight with a frown, and he asked Xifa dryly.

"It's you again? Sypha Corwin? What are you doing here again this time?"

It seems that Xifa has left the principal with the impression that he is difficult to deal with and a troublemaker. Principal Armando will not show a good face every time he sees Xifa in private. However, Xifa's grades are also very good, so Principal Armando His attitude is a bit inexplicable.

"I..."

Seeing the principal asking himself with a straight face, he didn't seem to blame himself for using black magic.

Xifa opened his mouth, but didn't know how to say it.

Hey, Principal, I saw another faceless figure that no one else could see. It led me around the castle, and finally brought me to where you were discussing important matters. It seemed that it couldn't run anymore, so I He took the opportunity to cast a dark spell that destroyed him, and now he was gone. I explain it this way, do you believe it?

Not knowing how to speak, Xifa could only look at Dumbledore for help.

"Don't be nervous, Armando, Xifa is my disciple. He came to me to attend Horace's Christmas dinner."

Armando Dippet frowned and looked at Xifa with sharp eyes.

Xifa was seen in formal attire, indeed for a banquet. He also held Fox's tail feathers in his hand, perhaps it was the tail feathers that brought him here. When he cast black magic, it was probably the protective magic here that stimulated him. After all, he was mortally threatened twice outside the castle.

besides. Xifa is still a young wizard born as a Muggle, and damage to Hogwarts will do him no good.

It seemed like it was indeed an accident, but a bit reckless, look at the damage caused in this corridor.

"Albus, I'm going to go to the Ministry of Magic first. I'll leave this corridor to you to tidy up."

After saying that, Armando Dippet passed by Xifa expressionlessly.

Seeing that Xifa was temporarily fooled, he quickly ran to Dumbledore and said, "Professor, Professor Slughorn suddenly planned to hold the event in the auditorium. You haven't been there yet. I came here to tell you."

Principal Armando Dippet, who hadn't gone far, seemed to be completely convinced that this was just an accident, because the change of the banquet location could be found out once he checked.

He no longer stayed, and a phantom disappeared from the sight of the two. He had an important meeting to attend at the Ministry of Magic.

"It seems like you are indeed in big trouble, talking as you go."

Glancing at the compass in Xifa's right hand, Dumbledore understood something.

He was not too anxious to ask about the beginning and end of the matter, but waved his wand a few times to repair the entire damaged aisle.
