The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 529: Battle at the Department of Mysteries (Part )
The rectangular room was in chaos, but fortunately there was no three-way fight. Although Moody, Lupin, and Sirius were not familiar with Sergei and Hartman, Kingsley and Tonks knew them.

Kingsley and Tonks were present at the abandoned manor that night, and they were naturally impressed by Sergei and Hartman.

The spells in the room were as dense as raindrops. After Alastor Moody was injured first, another person soon lay down. It was a Death Eater, and judging from his size, it should be Crabbe.

Sergei was fighting Antonin Dolokhov, and the fight was so fierce that the wands waved by both sides became blurred shadows.

Dolohov had a pale, twisted face, dark skin, and a big waist. He had brutally murdered Mrs. Weasley's two brothers and was considered one of Voldemort's right-hand men.

I don't know where Dolokhov learned this magic, but the flames he shot out were actually purple, which gave people a very ominous feeling. Sergei sensed the danger in the spell and didn't dare to take it head-on. He quickly dodged and blew a strong wind towards Dolokhov with his backhand.

Sirius and Lupin's opponents kept their masks on, and they fought each other, their wands flying up and down like swords, sparks flying from their wand tips -

Kingsley Shacklebolt fought one against two Death Eaters and was not at a disadvantage. He was the one who knocked Crabbe down. After Crabbe fell, another Death Eater took Crabbe's place.

At the other end of the field, Tonks was in danger as she fought against her aunt Bellatrix. Fortunately, Hartman was not far away from her and occasionally supported her, so Tonks did not lose.

But Bellatrix was worthy of being Voldemort's number one fighter. She seized the opportunity and defeated Tonks in one fell swoop.

Tonks fell unconscious from the middle of the stone steps, her limp body rolling from one row of stone steps to another. Bellatrix laughed wildly, her laughter shrill and piercing.

Then Bellatrix cast another killing curse at Sirius, but fortunately Sirius was alert and dodged it by crouching down.

Ada, who was still hiding in the dark, covered her ears. She was stunned by Bellatrix's series of actions. This Bellatrix Lestrange was really cruel to her own family!
As the battle grew more chaotic, Bellatrix's opponent became Kingsley Shacklebolt.

However, Kingsley, who stepped forward, was no match for Bellatrix. With a loud bang and a shout from the platform where the two were, Kingsley fell to the ground with a scream.

Then, Bellatrix attacked her cousin Sirius again.

No one knew how Sirius had offended Bellatrix before she got married, and this crazy woman still remembers it.

Aida, who had been watching the show for a long time, finally moved. She jumped up from her position, flew over the room and appeared in front of Bellatrix.

Seeing Ada in front of her, Bellatrix Lestrange did not panic like her accomplices. Instead of running away, she grinned and shot a killing curse at Ada.

Ada raised her left hand without dodging, and a ray of light flashed, and the green light of the killing curse instantly dissipated. Ada waved the wand in her right hand, and there was a loud bang in the air, and the whip like lightning lashed over fiercely.

An advanced version of the torture spell - Lightning Five Whips.

Since Ada couldn't connect the hair, the five-lash lightning whip had been put aside. But today Bellatrix's performance was so outrageous that Ada wanted to give her a good beating.

The whip of light was right in front of her eyes, and Bellatrix, who didn't know her own limits, wanted to block it, and she did block it.

But it was said to be five consecutive lightning whips, how could it be enough to block one? The next four whips all fell on Bellatrix, knocking her to the ground and wailing in pain.

Bellatrix stopped laughing and imitating the baby's voice, and Ada finally felt relieved.

However, this crazy woman was worthy of being highly valued by Voldemort, and she quickly got rid of the influence of the advanced version of the torture curse. Bellatrix rolled on the ground and rolled down the stone steps, and then a pile of rubble flew high, blocking Ada's pursuit route.

So the following scene appeared on the field: Bellatrix was running in front, a pile of floating rubble was in the middle, and Ada was hanging slowly at the end, making the rubble blocking the way even more broken.

But as the two chased each other, the Death Eaters in the house were in trouble. As the saying goes, don't miss anyone you pass by. Ada knocked down the Death Eaters she passed by along the way. For the Death Eaters, Ada alone was cruel enough, and the most desperate thing was that Albus Dumbledore also came!

Dumbledore, holding his wand, looked pale and angry. He walked down the stone steps quickly and tied up a Death Eater who was trying to escape with just a wave of his wand.

Ada walked along the way, driving them away; Dumbledore lightly chanted spells and tied up the people who were being driven around. The two of them also cooperated with each other.

After just a short while, there were only two Death Eaters left standing in the room, one was Bellatrix Lestrange and the other was Antonin Dolohov.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Antonin Dolokhov also wanted to escape, but Sergei was no pushover. Although he could not defeat Dolokhov for the time being, he still had the ability to prevent his opponent from escaping.

Sergei waved his wand faster, casting spells like "burning fire". As his hands moved, Sergei's feet also moved closer, approaching the panicked Dolokhov.

Feeling that the distance was about right, Sergei shouted loudly, and Dolokhov shivered in fear. Sergei leaped over and knocked the other man down, then he rode on him and punched him hard, making Dolokhov dizzy.

The battle in the Department of Mysteries seemed to be over, with Bellatrix being the only Death Eater left. Ada was tired of playing around, so she used the Cruciatus Curse to knock Bellatrix down in front of Dumbledore.

Just when Ada was about to kill the other party, a warning suddenly arose in her heart. Without caring about Bellatrix, Ada turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared on the spot.

As soon as Ada disappeared, a deadly green light fell.

Voldemort appeared in the room out of nowhere, with a tall and thin figure, wearing a black hood, and a terrifying snake-like face that was pale and haggard, with a pair of red eyes with narrow pupils.

The small Department of Mysteries, the small stone room, actually gathered the three demons: Ada, Dumbledore and Voldemort. It is really an honor for the Ministry of Magic.

"Where is my prophecy?" Voldemort's voice was cold and merciless. He didn't care about the Death Eaters lying on the ground. The only thing he cared about was the crucial prophecy.

Bellatrix fell to the ground at Voldemort's feet, crying, and said tremblingly: "Master, I'm sorry, I didn't know... I was fighting with someone... I didn't know..."

"That's enough, Bella," said Voldemort chillingly. "I will deal with you later. Do you think I came to the Ministry just to hear your tearful apology?"

The temperature in the room seemed to drop a lot because of Voldemort's arrival. Except for Ada and Sirius, everyone saw the returning Voldemort for the first time.

"It would be foolish to come here tonight, Tom," said Dumbledore calmly. "The Aurors are coming."

As Dumbledore spoke, the temperature in the room began to rise, and he gave new courage to the Order of the Phoenix.

"By the time they get here, I will be gone, and you will be dead." Voldemort's voice was cold and high.

Surprisingly, Voldemort did not take action immediately after he finished speaking. Instead, he turned to Ada and said, "Nice to meet you again, Esmeralda. How have you considered my options?"

As soon as Voldemort finished speaking, Sirius, Lupin and Kingsley looked at Ada. Everyone understood what this sentence meant, and they were waiting for Ada's answer.

Dumbledore did not look at Ada, nor did he wait for an answer. He still faced Voldemort with his back to Ada.

"Tom, we all know her choice, why bother with that?"
