Chapter 200: How did Ethan become a target for Dementors?
Leaving aside the topic of Dementors.
The atmosphere in the cubicle became peaceful.
Even Lupin, who had been through countless trials.
There is a sense of unease and apprehension when discussing this unkillable, purely dark creature.
Lupin: "So, how was your summer, Ethan?"
After asking the question.
Lupin suddenly fell silent.
Scenes flashed through my mind.
Fighting Gringotts goblins, fighting goblins from the past, returning and seamlessly transforming into a werewolf only to be beaten to a pulp...
It was quite spectacular.
Men are silent, women weep.
Fortunately.
History has not changed significantly.
Historical records only mention one brave warrior named "Wright".
With his "servants," he descended like divine warriors, repelling the demons and guarding the camp.
The "War of Fire and Food" was originally a battle in which no one survived.
It has now been renamed "Battle of Dawn".
[Humanity used this to severely damage the fairy forces, laying an important foundation for victory in subsequent wars. It greatly reduced human casualties.]
History records it this way.
Lupin breathed a sigh of relief.
I feel a warm feeling in my heart.
"I had a great summer vacation."
Ethan's clear voice brought Lupin back to his senses:
"Now, we need to help an elderly father bring his runaway descendants back home so that the family can be reunited."
Translation: Catch Sirius Black and take him back to the ancestral home.
Ethan raised the corners of his mouth, his smile as warm and harmless as a spring breeze.
"Oh, that's wonderful! A very kind and helpful act."
Lupin said in surprise.
It's like seeing an octopus helping an old lady cross the street.
As expected, Ethan is still a human being at heart.
They were indifferent to the Dementors just now, so they must not know how terrifying they are.
I must protect the budding talents of the magical world.
Professor Lu Ping was determined.
As they were talking.
The train slowly started moving.
Outside the cubicles, it also became crowded and lively.
Every now and then, some impetuous students would suddenly fling open their cubicle doors.
After seeing Ethan.
They froze instantly.
As if afraid of disturbing some prehistoric behemoth, they closed the door quietly and carefully.
Professor Lu Ping:
Ok.
It must be because Ethan's image as a model student was too dazzling.
That probably caused others to keep their distance.
The newly appointed Defense Against the Dark Arts professor suddenly realized that his career might be far from over.
Just then.
"Splash!"
The cubicle door was pushed open once again.
"Thank goodness! There's an empty cubicle!"
Upon seeing Ethan, the newcomer made a comical sound as if he had been choked.
But this time...
Ethan didn't let them off the hook.
"Oh, Ron, it's been a long time!"
Ethan opened his arms.
Just like leaders from various countries, they greeted him with warmth and friendliness.
Ron: (speaking) ?! !
He instinctively took a half step back and covered the protruding part of his pocket with his hand.
Followed by.
"Ethan!"
A joyful shout rang out from behind Ron.
Hermione smiled slyly and shoved Ron away as ruthlessly as she would a sack of potatoes.
He plopped down opposite Ethan.
With rosy cheeks, she asked, "Ethan, how was your holiday?"
Before Ethan could answer, Hermione couldn't help but add, "I memorized all the ancient runes I had to during the summer vacation!"
"To be honest, although it seemed quite complicated at first, as long as you read and memorize more, you'll discover the patterns! I think this course is really interesting! Maybe I'll get the highest score, Ethan..."
"
Hearing Hermione excitedly popping her tongue repeatedly.
Ron rolled his eyes and muttered, "Merlin."
He and his good friend Harry exchanged a playful glance.
...I met the Chosen of Khorne right after the start of the semester.
This doesn't seem like a good sign.
However, unsurprisingly, they were late again.
Along the way, this was the only cubicle with seats available.
not to mention.
Ron looked toward the unfamiliar man in the cubicle.
His clothes were shabby and his face was haggard.
However, his attitude was quite calm and indifferent.
He introduced himself to them as Lupin, the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
Since there is a professor present.
Then nothing should happen, right?
Ron thought to himself.
I sat down without worry.
The snack cart came and went.
As dusk fell, the fields outside the window gradually became deserted.
Ethan leaned against the windowsill.
I turned my head and gazed at the rich night outside the car window.
Several unusual magical forms gradually appeared in their field of vision.
...It's coming.
Ethan spoke softly, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Ron stopped his thirty-eighth retelling of his battle with the mummy.
Like everyone else, he looked at Ethan with a puzzled expression.
Asking naively:
"It's here? What's here? The snack cart just arrived—ah!"
There was a loud "thud"!
The train suddenly stopped!
The immense inertial force propelled everyone forward!
Ahead, there was a sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
"Snapped!"
All the lights went out.
In complete darkness.
Only Ethan, holding Luna's hand, remained firmly seated.
His eyes shone, he waited excitedly and quietly for something, and a card suddenly appeared in his hand.
Like a predator waiting for its prey to come to it.
A chill swept into the carriage.
The window closed, and a layer of white frost formed with a crackling sound.
"It hurts...
Harry grinned, grabbed the crooked glasses from the ground, and put them on his nose.
In the darkness, looking bewildered at Professor Lu Ping, who appeared to be on high alert, he asked:
"W-What happened...?"
Professor Lu Ping said in a deep voice, "Stay where you are and don't move."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, intending to open the cubicle door.
However, before him.
The cubicle door was slowly pulled open first.
"Karara..."
The roller seemed to roll across everyone's hearts.
Their bodies involuntarily tensed up.
A terrifying gray arm reached in from the outside.
Covered in a tattered black cloak, he looked like a dried-up corpse.
Thin, rotten, and with a hernia.
Harry's blood froze instantly, and his breath caught in his throat.
In deathly silence.
A long, drawn-out breath came from under the headscarf.
It's as if I'm trying to inhale something other than air.
【One—Aaaaaaah!!!】
In an instant.
A piercing scream exploded in Harry's mind!
It was filled with pleading and despair.
And there was that green light, a blinding and terrifying green light—
"Bang!"
A warm hand pressed down on Harry's shoulder.
Suddenly, it jolted him awake from his nightmare!
"E-Ethan...!"
Harry was panting heavily, still shaken.
She looked at Ethan beside her with immense gratitude.
Ethan smiled gently and said, "We'll have extra practice once we get to school."
faint?
A true warrior should be able to take down a Dementor with a single punch!
This is what it means to be a member of the Enlightenment Society!
Harry:
He suddenly felt that the black cloak seemed much more benevolent.
Professor Lupin, wand raised, hissed, "None of us hid Sirius under our cloaks!"
however.
The Dementors, however, remained unmoved.
He stared greedily in Harry's direction.
Lupin frowned, just about to cast Patronus.
Yu Guangzhong saw Ethan suddenly stand up!
Standing in front of the Dementor, pointing to himself, he said with great interest:
"Come on, suck mine."
Lupin: ? ! !
How strange!
He stared in shock, his eyes wide, before he could stop them.
The Dementor, never one to let its prey escape, suddenly inhaled with a hiss—"Hiss...hiss?!"
Their bodies suddenly stiffened.
Then, it began to tremble violently!
A dense, writhing darkness, an unparalleled joy, as if countless faces were leaping, enlarging and shrinking.
A thousand faces are smiling, a thousand faces are crying...:
Extreme emotions, like a storm, assaulted them!
What a wonderful, pure flavor!
They're a hundred times purer than that bunch of trash from Azkaban!!!
The leader of the Dementors immediately let out a low growl.
His voice was low and hoarse, yet it echoed throughout the entire carriage.
He stretched out his withered, brittle fingers and pointed them directly at Ethan!
Brothers! We've achieved a huge result!!
Professor Lu Ping: ? ? ?
Wait, how come Ethan's a fugitive??
on the floor.
Ron muttered in a daze:
"Blood Mother Hell... I knew Ethan's identity would be exposed sooner or later..."
