章節 463: Chapter 463 Flames
"You all possess the ability to outline runes freely from the scopes of the rune cards ... but this is only the first step, you still need to master the magical intent of the ancient runes, and that is not an easy task. Unless-" Felix gazed at the two dozen people in front of him, "you take some radical approach."
"Mr. Hap, what do you mean--" Kingsley asked in lieu of the rest.
"Take some risks and show your courage ... you need to feel it deeply." Felix said seriously, a dozen feet around him - as his wand cut through the air like a sharp sword, accompanied by a soft "swoosh" sound - a bright orange flame rose up and twisted into a long snake of flame.
Kingsley's eyes widened, and he quickly took two steps back. The other Aurors and Hit Wizards also drew their wands and pointed at the flaming serpent which stood upright, as well as Felix Hap, who stood in front of the flaming serpent, with a calm face and his wand had disappeared into his sleeve.
The crowd gradually calmed down, Tonks marvelled at the huge flaming serpent burning in front of her, it is almost a hundred feet tall, the long serpent body is composed of flames, and every piece of its scale are burning violently.
She took two steps forward, and Kingsley shouted in the background, "Tonks!" The long flaming serpent let out a silent hiss, then slammed down with a "thud" on the ground, the form of the serpent disappeared, leaving a straight flaming path on the field.
The passage is about six or seven feet wide, the head of the serpent fell just in front of Tonks, its tail extended backward, reeling Felix in, leaving his figure hidden in the flames.
" Ladies and gentlemen, walk through the flame to join me and feel the power of the Flame Rune."
Felix said as he stood amidst the flames.
The Aurors looked stunned, and Kingsley frowned and asked slowly, "Mr. Hap, is this some sort of obstruction?" Yet Felix did not speak, perhaps not wanting to explain, or perhaps his very act of standing there spoke volumes.
Tonks took a step forward.
"Wait, Tonks--" Kingsley immediately said, he felt troubled, whether it is him, Scrimgeour, or the Minister of Magic, they can not control the whole situation. Especially the behaviour of those who have shown great power is not controllable.
His role is to deal with these "accidents".
Tonks looked back at Kingsley, and then at Felix, who remained silent in the flames - he watched in silence with his head tilted slightly to the side, looking at her and everyone behind her with a probing gaze, seemingly curious about their choices.
She began to perk up.
"I'm not going to get hurt." Tonks said with certainty, and she took another step forward, just one step away from the flames, which blazed hotly, creating a hot wind, and she smelled the scorching smell of her hair. She suddenly hesitated, her mind became not so sure, so she looked at the man in the flames.
"I'm not going to actively hurt anyone." The man said to her.
Her heart pounded, and as everyone watched, Tonks closed her eyes and stepped into the flames. There is no sharp pain as expected, she feels a burst of warmth, and with undulating cries of surprise ringing around her, she opened her eyes, when the flames looked completely different in her vision.
She saw flame runes. They looked like some kind of spirit, burning and jumping, transforming between the fiery red runes and the flames, and Felix's right hand glowed faintly as a wisp of flame separated in that hand, and one rune bolted in ...
Tonks couldn't help but gaze blankly from her spot, and Felix reminded her in a gentle voice: "Feel the emotion of the flame, feel the power of the rune."
Tonks stretched out her palm, and a wisp of bright flame jumped on her hand, her hand shuddered as her arm cringed, but she didn't move away, the flame clung to her hand, dancing in her palm before transforming into a shiny rune.
A feeling of joy surged through her, and she knew at once what to do next. She called out internally for more runes, and soon a wisp of flames surrounded her, forming an airtight cocoon of fire.
"This is--" Kingsley's eyes widened, and out of trust in Dumbledore, he stepped in second. The flames did not harm him, they gently brushed his robes, then more people stepped into the flames, they remained unharmed, and now they are curiously surveying the bright flames around them.
Their eyes showed an incredulous expression.
Is it an illusion? Kingsley thought, when a scream rang out from behind him, "Yaxley!" Someone shouted. Kingsley jerked back, Yaxley retreated from the flames, he seemed to have suffered a great deal of damage, although his skin showed not a trace of burns, but his clothes are smoking.
Yaxley sat on the ground with a pained expression, his eyes filled with fear and anger. "What have you done!" He shouted.
"It only means that you have not been selected." Felix said calmly, "You didn't think that I would just hand over my power without making any restrictions, did you?"
"Mr. Hap," Kingsley said with a headache, "our agreement doesn't mention that, and you should at least talk to us in advance if you have any requests."
"Because I don't think it would be a hindrance." Felix said lightly, "Those who are averse to the ancient runes will naturally not be recognized by the runes either, you should have been prepared for this long ago."
"You mean, Yaxley he-" Kingsley looked at him hesitantly, and then looked at Yaxley who is sitting on the ground with a painful expression, and a huge wave rose up in his heart.
"Perhaps I should talk with this Mr. Yaxley, there may be a misunderstanding between us." Felix curled his lips and said, Yaxley, he remembered this name.
"There is no misunderstanding." Yaxley gritted his teeth and stood up, "I just simply don't like ancient runes! Sorry, Kingsley-it seems I shouldn't be here." He limped away.
Kingsley hesitated for a second or two, "I'm sorry, Mr. Hap, I need to check his health-"
"There will be nothing wrong with his health."
"I don't doubt that," Kingsley said quietly, "but-" he paused and said to the others, "Don't let Yaxley influence you, I'll go out and see what's going on." He stepped out of the flaming field and walked after him toward the door.
Felix spoke calmly, reassuring the stunned Aurors and the Hit Wizards. "The principle of this magic is simple ... I have amplified the emotions of the flame rune so that you can feel the intent of the rune a little better. But inevitably, the rune is tainted with my own will, so anyone who has conflicted thoughts about the rune will be repelled ..."
After a while, Kingsley returned with a brisk gait.
"The Healer said there's nothing serious, just a shock, and Scrimgeour gave him two days off." He told the crowd, and they sighed in relief, feeling sorry for Yaxley as they did so. A few more fire cocoons were added to the field, wisps of flame blending into them.
Felix nodded and looked at Kingsley, who wore a hesitant expression, "Something wrong?"
"Scrimgeour wants to invite you to lunch."
