"Thank you for your help, Xifa. If you hadn't resisted the monster's self-destruction, our mission would have ended in failure."
On a pier on the French coastline.
The Auror captain expressed his gratitude to Xifer, who was slightly shorter than him.
At first, he didn't believe that Xifa's strength was as strong as the rumors.
But he was a staunch Dumbledore supporter.
Learned that Xifa was Dumbledore's successor.
He volunteered to accompany Xifa to France.
I thought it was the senior taking care of his junior, but in the end, he was helping me.
He thought that even though he knew that the sea dragon was going to explode, he had no way to protect others.
In that case, his only chance of survival was to use phantom to avoid the explosion.
Although there are unique advantages in casting water magic at sea.
But that thick wall of ice completely enveloped the side of the cruise ship.
He thought that without long-term chanting and guidance, he would not be able to perform magic on that scale.
Even if the scale is reached, the intensity is far inferior.
Xifa obviously saw that the enthusiasm and gratitude of the tall wizard in front of him were genuine.
Although the wizard in front of him was unusually talkative, after learning that he was a Gryffindor, Xifa was glad that he did not hook up with her and call her brothers.
Westerners are not afraid of dealing with strangers. What they are afraid of is that strangers are familiar with you.
In this dark age where people are almost cannibalistic, Xifa is basically wary of everyone.
Accompanied by the Auror Captain, West Fay walked out of the dock.
Then he hurriedly made an excuse saying that he was in a hurry.
Xifa took out a motorcycle from his pocket, got on the motorcycle and started it in one go.
After the wizard waved goodbye.
As soon as Xifa hit the gas, he disappeared around the corner of the street from the wizard's sight with the roar of the engine under the setting sun.
——————
A mountaintop in the Alps is covered with snow.
Suddenly a black shadow appeared, a little black in the white, so conspicuous.
But there are few people in the Alps, let alone on the top of the mountains.
So Xifa appeared here unabashedly.
At the foot of the mountain, there is a large canyon that Muggles cannot enter or see.
With Xifa's current eyesight, he can easily see distant scenes.
There are lingering clouds and mist, green trees, green grass, a few flowers, and even some unknown small magical animals active in it. It looks like a good place to settle down and rest.
Xifa rubbed the ring that had lost the emerald in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
I finally found this place.
The ring on his hand was exactly the ring on Cassandra's hand.
However, the emerald that Lady Diana had stored was removed at this time and left with Cassandra.
This ring clasp is the key to entering and opening the seal.
And that emerald is a sealed object that hides the function of the ring buckle.
Three keys are needed to completely open the sealed place and expose it to the outside world.
But to enter it and temporarily unlock the seal, a key is enough.
"Xifa, even with your current magic power, it is estimated that you can only temporarily break the seal for half a day."
"Before you unlock the seal, you crush this stone and a message will be received here. We will prepare holy water as quickly as possible and rescue Elise."
"What I want to warn you is that if you do this, you will bear unpredictable consequences and pay an unpredictable price."
...
This warning is nothing more than preparing yourself to pay the price.
No matter how heavy it is, can I still give up saving Elise?
Taking a deep breath, Xifa no longer hesitated. On the top of the mountain, he jumped and went straight to the center of the canyon, where there was a lake the size of a football field.
Around me, the color of the mountains changed from white to gray, and then from gray to dark green. Finally, the strong color in dark green gradually dissipated, and emerald green gradually became the main color of the environment.
Suddenly, Xifa felt the ring on his hand warm slightly, and then it passed through an invisible film.
This seems to be the space magic of elves.
It's a pity that Xifa didn't have time to fully appreciate the dislocation of traveling through space just now.
Falling rapidly in the air, he quickly took out his wand and cast magic to cushion the force of his high-speed landing.
As it approached the lake, the falling speed was as fast as the cherry blossoms falling in the sky.
Seeing the lake close in front of him, Xifa stretched out his right hand without a wand and snapped his fingers.
On the calm lake, a round ice floe gradually formed from where Xifa settled.
Xifa gently stood on it, causing ripples to spread in all directions.
When the ripples calmed down, Xifa also calmed down inside.
He pulled out the first resonance ball and crushed it.
Across the English Channel, in the Hogwarts Castle far away from me.
In Dumbledore's office, on the most conspicuous fiery red shelf in the room, the resonance ball that was a pair in Xifa's hand, symbolizing the successful arrival at the destination, was broken simultaneously.
After waiting for many days, Luna and others heard the movement. After being stunned for a while, they breathed a long sigh of relief.
They knew that Xifa had arrived at the sealed place.
Quickly crush the resonance ball to confirm receipt.
Then they checked the required magic materials over and over again, and practiced the tedious steps of the purification ritual again and again.
They immediately purified Elise as soon as they waited for the resonance ball to release the seal of West France.
The resonance ball that confirmed the reply shattered in Xifa's hands.
Calculating the time, it was only about ten seconds before I crushed the first ball.
Xifa calculated the time it took for Luna and others to pay attention and send back the information.
I feel that the delay is within the acceptable range. .
After all, Lady Diana said that she had entered a small world.
There may be errors in the resonance ball, and whether it can be transmitted by other means is a problem.
But now, the resonance ball can transmit information in time.
Then he would not appear, and he stupidly unlocked the seal. Luna and others didn't know that the seal had been unlocked.
It's not a big deal if you miss an opportunity in vain, just recover your magic power and try again.
What I was afraid of was the accident that Lady Diana said.
Those remaining magic circles, magic equipment, etc., maybe they were running before the sealing, but after the sealing, they became a wonder in the Muggle world.
Once you unlock the seal yourself.
Even if it's just a short moment.
Those remaining magic circles will cause unpredictable consequences.
But Xifa decided to put aside those unforeseen consequences for the sake of Elise.
After all, Dumbledore's note also hinted that he should face the consequences and take the initiative to break the seal.
The secret room... is this secret place.
Because the ring on his hand is the key to opening this "secret room", coupled with the time and space barrier.
This secret place can certainly be regarded as a secret room!
