Chapitre 75: Lucas' Reminder And The Cruel Wizard Chess Match!
(While we haven't reached the 1k goal in power stones, we're pretty close and there's still an hour, but since I'm currently on the countryside with almost no signal I don't know if we will reach the goal in that time. So here's the extra chapter anyway, enjoy)
(Evening.)
Draco frowned and came to the sofa in the common room.
"Lucas, I want to talk to you!"
Closing the book in his hand, Lucas looked at the platinum haired boy beside him.
"What's wrong?"
"Harry thinks that Professor Snape is going to go steal the Philosopher's Stone tonight, do you think it's possible?"
Lucas didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.
"What do you think? Is Professor Snape that kind of person?"
"No!" Draco shook his head in denial.
Seeing Lucas' surprised eyes he laughed and said: "I have known the professor since I was a child, and I know that he is not a villain."
"During this time, I have been following Harry around to investigate, in fact, to prove that Professor Snape is not the villain he said."
Lucas chuckled, this is the Draco he knows and it seems that he misunderstood this guy before.
He carefully looked at the platinum haired boy in front of him. Compared with their first meeting, Draco has indeed grown a lot.
"Draco, I'm glad you think so, and I'll give you a tip, if you come across a puzzle or a difficult choice, choose the smallest, most inconspicuous one."
"If you want to back off, remember to choose something round!"
His inexplicable words successfully made Draco's eyes become confused.
"What's the meaning of that?"
"You'll know when the time comes, you just need to keep it in your mind!"
Draco nodded, and immediately reacted.
"Lucas, won't you come with us?"
He had just finished speaking when he saw Lucas shaking his head at himself.
"I won't go, I wish you a happy time!"
Looking at his best friend who got up and left, Draco always felt that he was acting very strange today.
It's like he knows what's going to happen to them next.
"Strange!" He walked aside muttering.
It was close to ten o'clock in the evening when Draco tidied up his robes and left the Slytherin common room.
"Mr. Baron!"
Lucas' voice suddenly came from the empty room.
His figure appeared on a nearby chair, still holding Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the book he was reading before.
Bloody Baron, the resident ghost of Slytherin. He has a thin appearance and a gloomy complexion, which fits the characteristics of a Slytherin very well.
The Bloody Baron held a Western sword in his hand, and his clothes were covered with silver blood.
"What can I do for you, Mr. Grindelwald."
Bloody Baron was very polite because he could feel the deadly threat emanating from Lucas.
He was also wondering, he has been dead for many years, what is it that can make him feel threatened.
"Mr. Baron, please follow Draco to have a look. If they encounter trouble, please help him to solve it."
"No problem, I'm happy to help you!"
The bloody Baron flew out after speaking.
Waiting until the Baron left, Lucas put away the book and followed out of the common room.
Due to the deal with Dumbledore he wasn't afraid of being seen going out by the portraits.
He even wished that the portraits would go and report to Dumbledore to let the old man know that he is serious about fulfilling the contract.
The Bloody Baron followed Draco from afar until he joined Harry and the other two boys.
That's right, two boys.
Seamus Finnigan, the demolition expert, also followed.
"Why is he here?"
To this Gryffindor student who always creates explosive surprises, Draco is certainly no stranger.
Harry said embarrassingly: "We met him and Neville when we came out. Neville wanted to stop us, so I knocked him unconscious."
"Seamus had to follow after seeing this, or report to the professor!"
"Merlin, did he think we were going out to play?"
Hearing Draco's dissatisfied voice, Ron immediately stood up and defended his classmate and roommate.
The quiet quarrel attracted Peeves the poltergeist.
Peeves is very different from the other ghosts in the castle and the most obvious difference is that he is not milky and transparent, but full of colors.
"Oh~ there are a few wizard children who don't sleep in the middle of the night, and Peeves caught them. I'll tell Filch immediately, hahaha~"
"Oh Merlin, it's actually Peeves!"
Harry looked into the air with a headache.
Peeves likes to play pranks, and he likes to watch the chase game between Filch and the students.
The faces of the other kids also changed, but just when they were about to run away quickly.
Suddenly there was a low voice in the distance.
"Peeves!"
Peeves stiffened and looked into the depths of the corridor in fear.
Peeves, who is not afraid of almost anything, is actually afraid of the Bloody Baron.
"Oh, Lord Bloody Baron, please forgive Peeves for his little joke."
"I really didn't know that you invited these people, I'm sorry to disturb you!"
Bloody Baron now understood what trouble Lucas was referring to.
While admiring Lucas, he looked at Peeves and said, "We are going to do something very important.
"Oh, little Peeves will not bother you, my lord!"
After Peeves finished speaking, he disappeared before everyone's eyes.
Harry and the others looked at the Bloody Baron who was approaching.
Just when he was about to thank him, he saw the Baron flying into the distance.
"Huh, we're saved, let's go quickly!"
The four of them huddled under Harry's invisibility cloak and walked towards the third floor.
After a while, Lucas came from afar. Looking at the eight feet crowded together in front of him, he sighed helplessly.
At this time Peeves actually came back, and when he saw Lucas his eyes lit up.
He just wanted to tease the little wizard in front of him but when he saw the purple flame ignited in the opponent's eyes.
A throbbing from the depths of his soul reminded Peeves that if he stayed any longer, he might die!
"Good night, little Mr. Grindelwald, don't worry, little Peeves has seen nothing, and will not say anything".
After Peeves finished speaking, he turned to face the wall and covered his eyes.
...…
Lucas made his way to the third-floor corridor.
When he heard the conversation of Harry and others coming from ahead, he immediately cast a disillusionment charm on himself.
Four people who were busy lifting the giant dog's paw didn't notice that the door behind them suddenly opened and closed quickly.
"Ron, be careful not to wake up the three-headed dog."
Looking at the clumsy Ron Weasley, Draco couldn't help complaining.
The two who were already enemies immediately started bickering.
Lucas clearly saw Harry let out a long sigh, he probably also had a headache.
He then looked at the harp that had stopped beside him and didn't know if he should remind the people who were making noise.
"Do you feel that something is missing?"
After Harry finished speaking, the two quarreling children fell silent immediately.
"Harp, the harp has stopped!" Seamus Finnigan reminded.
The remaining three looked at the three-headed dog aside in horror and saw three heads and six eyes staring straight at them.
"Jump!"
Harry opened the trapdoor and jumped in first while the others followed swiftly before the three-headed dog bit off their heads.
Fluffy roared loudly into the trapdoor.
Immediately afterwards, it raised its heads to look at where Lucas was hiding.
~Sniff~
Noticing the change in Fluffy's eyes, Lucas pulled out his wand and swung it at the harp.
This dog has a good nose, so before it moved to attack him, Lucas bewitched the harp to play again.
The melodious music sounded and Fluffy gradually fell asleep.
Walking over to the trapdoor Lucas saw the four kids entangled in the devil's snare plant.
~sigh~
He felt like a nanny, such a simple devil's snare and they still can't solve it.
Still, he raised his wand to help.
At this moment, Seamus Finnigan's voice came from below.
"Lumos!"
~Boom!~
As expected of Seamus, a simple lighting spell can actually produce a violent explosion.
Thanks to the flames produced by the explosion the devil's snare loosened and let them go, allowing them to enter the next level.
Lucas also took the opportunity to jump from above.
"Harry, what's the matter?"
Harry looked behind him, he seemed to hear a very slight sound behind him just now, as if someone had fallen from a height.
"It's nothing, I probably heard it wrong!"
After Harry finished speaking, he led them down the wet passage.
The way forward was dark and quiet and they could even hear their own breathing clearly.
From time to time, water drops fell from the wet walls to the ground.
Every time a sound is made, it makes the nervous group feel uneasy.
"Listen! What is that sound!"
Draco was the first to hear the sound of wings flapping in the distance.
He quickened his pace and after turning a corner, he came to a different room.
Birds were flying around in the room, and opposite them was a locked door.
"Walk!"
Harry took the lead, and they all rushed to the door quickly.
Strangely, the birds in the sky didn't seem to be planning to attack them.
"Alohomora!"
Draco's wand flashed, but the big lock of the wooden door did not open.
Harry turned to look at the flying birds: "I know what they are now, they are not birds, they are keys with wings!"
"Look, there are broomsticks!"
Three old brooms are standing quietly in the corner.
Harry and Draco looked at each other.
As a Seeker and Prospective Seeker for both their houses, it is not difficult to find a key in this small room.
The two rode brooms and soon spotted their target.
Lucas yawned from his hiding place, this is really a playground for children.
How can an adult wizard need to go through so much trouble? He could pass all the way through with magic power alone.
Taking advantage of them opening the door, Lucas slipped in first.
The remaining human sized wizard chess shouldn't be a problem.
There's no need to worry, according to the original book, the troll in the next room should have already been dealt with by Quirrel.
And the potion level has a hint from him to Draco, so he should be able to pass it easily.
He let out a long breath, the time to play games with the kids is finally over.
But when he walked to the wooden door leading to the next level, a roar of a giant monster came from behind the door.
'Dumbledore, you barmy old man…'
Taking advantage of Harry and the others not paying attention, he came to the next room.
Looking at the giant monster that is half a size bigger than the Halloween one.
Lucas' face became quite ugly!.
(This week I'll give you the same deal, 5 chapters up for grabs at 200 power stones each so 1k stones for all 5, let the game begin!)
