Chapter 244: Chapter 241 - City of Calais (1)

England - On the Border between Dover and Calais.

Rose was sitting in an office with her legs on the desk as she read the reports on the regular barriers and searches around the Border. You could say that the border between Dover and Calais was too quiet, being the closest point between England and France.

Surprisingly, France hadn't launched an attack even after a week, which made Rose's cheerful mood completely disappear in the face of so much downtime. Which was very suspicious, given that the war had already reached every country on the European continent.

Of course, one thing that caught Rose's attention, which she had already reported to headquarters in London, was that walls had been erected around the city of Calais and gigantic what she assumed to be magically powered cannons had appeared on the wall overnight.

Honestly, when she felt that these cannons were powered by magical energy, she was shocked, especially when she felt that each shot had the same power as a Grade 3 Wizard, the larger ones had the strength of a Grade 2 Wizard!

Although she knew that Germany was the leader and the pinnacle of humanity today in the manufacture of alchemical items, seeing real magic cannons shocked her to the core. If such a thing could be mass-produced, she could imagine that Berlin had now become a veritable magical fortress that even a Special Grade Wizard would have problems with.

Of course, that was for Special Grade Wizards who had relatively common Innate Techniques that involved their physique; if it was her, it hardly mattered what the barrier was, she could even get past the Hogwarts Barrier, let alone the barrier made by Germany.

However, seeing the magical cannons, a crazy and absurd idea popped into Rose's mind. If such a cannon was possible, why couldn't a cannon with the strength of a Special Grade Wizard be possible? When such an idea appeared in her mind, even she found it ridiculous, after all, to make such a weapon required a Special Grade Wizard to use it.

But why create such a weapon when a Special Grade Wizard was much more effective than that, after all, the wizard could move around and the cannon couldn't and was limited to staying in one place. The work wasn't worth the reward.

"But if you solve the energy problem, it's possible for even a Grade Five Wizard to have the power of a Special Grade Wizard." Rose muttered to herself, thinking about the possibilities passing before her. Although it was an unfounded theory, she still decided to report her suspicions to Headquarters.

As she was about to write the report to London, Rose heard someone knocking on her office door. "Come in." She spoke in a calm tone.

As soon as she spoke, the door was opened and surprisingly, Hermione walked into the office holding a stack of papers, which made Rose's face immediately look full of disgust at the pile of paper. In one week, Rose assumed she had signed at least a thousand papers!

At that moment, she hated any pile of papers and treated them as if they were formidable enemies.

"General Potter, the papers relating to the magical potions and two reports from London Headquarters." Hermione placed the pile of papers on Rose's desk and spoke with an incredibly serious and formal tone.

Rose ignored Hermione's formal speech and picked up the two reports from London with a serious look on her face.

The first was from Dumbledore warning that all of England's internal defenses had been successfully erected and fortresses had been erected throughout the country. You could say that the second phase of the country's defense has been successfully completed and England can now send more troops abroad without being too worried about being invaded in a short time.

The second one that caught Rose's attention was Asterion's report on the situation on the Spanish-French border. Apparently, the Allied forces have successfully taken the Principality of Andorra and are building their headquarters there.

At the same time, he explained how the fight between the Special Grade Wizards went.

"Two dead, one enslaved, one subjugated and one escaped..." Rose muttered to herself with an incredulous expression mixed with a touch of envy.

Especially the death of Herpo's Horcrux brought her an enormous sense of satisfaction, she had wanted to kill that corpse-desecrating Greek mummy for a long time!

Rose's mood was lifted by reading the description of the fight, and she couldn't help cursing fate for always putting Asterion in the most interesting place. However, France having hired Special Grade mercenaries to fight in the war was something that took her by surprise.

Rose wondered if there were any Special Grade mercenaries in the city as well. If there were, she would finally have a warm-up for the fighting to come.

Hermione, seeing Rose's expression, quickly noticed that this was a serious matter; it wasn't often that she saw her friend showing such an expression. As for applying for the war, Hermione didn't hesitate to follow Rose, despite her parents' protests, but she couldn't leave her best friend alone, so she applied to be Rose's secretary.

As Rose's secretary, she could see files that were confidential, including the death tolls that were being passed around all the time. She was shocked to learn that at least a thousand wizards and witches had died in less than a week around the planet.

Especially on the border between Russia and Ukraine and Poland, the place had become a human meat grinder, the highest number of casualties at the moment being from that place. Russian Minister of Magic Dmitri Ivanov attacked the border in full force. If it hadn't been for the arrival of reinforcements, Ukraine and Poland would have been successfully invaded by Russia.

"Hermione, pass on the orders, we want to test the forces in Calais." Rose said, drawing Hermione's attention, who looked at her friend in surprise.

Yes, Rose had decided to attack, or rather test the waters, she wanted to know how many enemies there were in Calais so that she wouldn't be taken by surprise like Asterion had been.

"Are you sure? Attacking might give the wrong idea that we're going all out, it might make the other countries stand guard, especially the Netherlands." At that moment, Hermione was no longer the little girl who had just entered the Wizarding world, she knew about politics and how she would get involved in it in the future.

Perhaps every English wizard knew a little about politics, it was in their blood.

Movements in Calais could cause troops in the Netherlands and Denmark to move too, which would stress England's eastern border.

"Don't worry, I won't move, we're just testing how deep the waters are in Calais." Rose reassured her friend with a charismatic smile on her face as she looked out over the city miles away with a sly grin.

'I won't move until there's a Special Grade, if there is one... be prepared not to come back alive.' Rose thought as a typical villain's laugh seemed to echo in her mind.

"No! I'm the heroine of the story, how can there be a villain as beautiful and handsome as me!" Rose muttered to herself, although she didn't have much confidence in her own words. For some reason, her fiancé's face appeared in her mind, making her lips twitch unnaturally.

Maybe she's the villain...

Hermione, after listening to Rose's orders, saluted and left the office with an incredibly serious expression, it was the first time that Dover HQ had attacked Calais!

Hermione felt like she was back in the Hundred Years' War, Calais was the starting point and would be her starting point as well as many other wizards and witches in this city now controlled entirely by wizards.

Chapter 245: Chapter 242 - City of Calais (2)

Looking around, Alice saw four squads lined up side by side, a tense atmosphere in the air. They had received orders from England's Third Special Grade Wizard - Rose Potter.

Her orders were clear: attack Calais and retreat.

No one questioned the reason for these orders, the soldiers didn't need to think, just do as they were told. Alice wanted to ask why, but remained silent in the face of her comrades' silence.

Then she appeared before her, Rose Potter herself.

She wore a white military suit that matched her hair, and Alice held her breath for a moment as she watched her. Even though she didn't like women, she felt incredible when she saw Rose's appearance. Those incredibly blue eyes seemed to have beautiful sparkles in them.

She was like a fairy. Alice, knowing that Morgan Le Fay was known for her beauty, perhaps assumed that Rose had the same level of beauty.

"On the Spanish border with France, our troops were attacked by five Special Grade beings, three of them from France itself, two of them hired as mercenaries."

Rose looked at the four elite troops and spoke calmly, her eyes glancing at each of them before continuing.

"Fortunately, Lord Black was able to successfully kill two, subdue two, and one escaped."

Rose's words caused everyone present to open their eyes in complete shock. What she had said was no joke, every one of the witches and wizards present knew how strong a special grade wizard was, they were beings that could easily change the geographical landscape.

Now, six of these special grade beings, including Asterion Black, were fighting on the border between Spain and France, how could they not be shocked?

"The mission is simple, I want to know if there are any Special Grade mercenaries in the city of Calais." Rose spoke calmly, her normally smiling face showing a serious and slightly cold expression. Despite her age, she managed to convey a sense of calm to everyone.

Alice immediately raised her arm, but remained silent, waiting for permission to speak.

"Permission to speak granted." Rose looked at the black-haired, blue-eyed girl with a hint of interest.

"What if there are special grade wizards or witches in Calais?" Feeling the eyes on her, Alice suppressed the nervousness in her heart and asked with a bit of courage as she looked at one of the few truly powerful women in the wizarding world.

"If there is, then you can send any signals to the sky and I'll know. I won't let any of those beings hurt them." Rose replied in a determined tone, exuding a confidence that made everyone's eyes feel safe, despite the cruelty of the war that surrounded them.

"You have orders to leave." Rose said and all six troops pounded their chests with their closed fists and shouted at the same time.

"Yes, ma'am!"

Looking at the wall of giant cannons not far from her, Alice swallowed; who would have thought that a cannon could have such power as theirs? It scared her, it was almost as if wizards and witches were no longer needed to fight wars.

She assumed that modern warfare would be like that.

But would it still be called war if there were no humans fighting in it?

Alice looked at her captain, it was Gregory Greenriver, a veteran Grade 1 wizard from a minor noble house, from the aristocracy faction in the Clock Tower. He was an old man, about sixty years old. His hair was completely gray, and a huge scar covered half of his face. It looked like a flame had disfigured his face.

Although he was old, none of the people present questioned his strength or intelligence, he was the wizard who currently commanded all four elite troops.

"I will not repeat what General Potter has ordered. We're going to make as much noise as possible and then retreat by making waves of attacks in different parts of the city, if you feel something is wrong don't hesitate to retreat, your lives are more important to England".

Gregory, seeing the young but talented faces, spoke with a penetrating huskiness, he didn't want these young people to take too many risks on a reconnaissance mission.

Some of these young people might become Grade 1 wizards, and if they were lucky, a Semi-Special Grade wizard. The chance was small, but it wasn't non-existent, and he had learned that the most effective teaching ground was war, even if war was a cruel and indifferent teacher.

Alice and the others nodded; although Gregory was old, they respected him sincerely. They had personally seen the man fight in the recent battle between Dover and Calais, both sides throwing spells at each other, an attempt to see the levels of the people defending the place.

Seeing everyone's expressions calm and serious, Gregory nodded in satisfaction. "Let's get started." He said, looking at the ramparts that protected the French city.

Everyone stood and drew their wands. The first step in invading the city of Calais was to punch a hole in the barrier protecting the city, not only that, but they had to be fast enough to break through and quickly hide in the city before they were located by the magical detection barrier.

All four teams pointed their wands at a specific point on the barrier, and at the same time, twenty wizards and witches struck the barrier with bolts of energy that resembled lightning flashing across the sky. Phosphorescent plasma dripped onto the ground, partially melting the rocks.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

More and more cracks appeared in the spherical space, making the transparent barrier vaguely visible.

Such a large amount of magical energy in one place could indeed make a hole in the barrier, but it would take a few seconds to accomplish this feat, which was dangerous because the moment this amount of magical energy was released, all the wizards and witches within a radius of at least ten kilometers could sense it.

Crack!

With a sound that calmed everyone's nerves, the transparent orb shattered, opening a hole just over two meters in diameter. Without hesitation, everyone rushed forward without waiting a second. At this point, everyone was racing against time.

Alice strengthened her body with magical energy and shot forward, her surroundings moving extremely fast as she advanced through the alleys and streets of Calais City. When she stopped, she found herself in front of a dark alley and cancelled her magic boost.

Crash!!!

The moment she stopped, Alice heard a crash that seemed to sound miles away from her. She knew that some of her companions had encountered enemies and were fighting at that very moment. Knowing that she couldn't wait any longer, she took a deep breath and used her innate technique.

"Innate Spell Manipulation - Crown of Blood - Blood Manipulation."

With her whisper, the strands of blood danced in her hands, becoming extremely deadly weapons.

With a flick of her hand, Alice controlled the strings of blood with her fingers and made a claw-like slash with her hand.

The lines of blood dancing in the air surgically cut through everything around her, turning houses, walls, and ramparts into nothing but rubble.

She remained indifferent to the screams they heard, or even the wailing of a child who had lost his parents to her attacks.

It wasn't just her who was acting, Gregory on top of a building moved just as quickly, his hands coming together to form a hand seal. Drops of clay began to float around him.

"Innate Spell Manipulation - Clay Manipulation - Clay Golems."

At his words, humanoid creatures made of featureless clay appeared around him.

Gregory didn't stop and changed the hand seals again, but this time, thousands of small clay birds appeared around his body. With a quick flick of his hand, he set them all in motion in an instant.

The golens and clay birds ran and flew everywhere extremely quickly, and when they came in contact with something, something surprising happened.

BOOM!

They exploded in powerful bursts, causing a shocking chaos in the city, which immediately erupted into anarchy with screams and cries. Although Muggles couldn't really see anything related to magic and cursed spirits, they could feel the effects that each one had on them.

This time was no different and Gregory showed no mercy to the Muggle inhabitants of the town, he had orders and he would carry them out no matter how cruel they might be.

Maybe Rose didn't know what her orders meant or what they would lead to, but eventually she would know that she was the mastermind behind thousands of random murders just to find out if there were any special grade wizards or witches in the city of Calais!
