The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 610 Gambling Fight
Good guy, Ada exclaimed, good guy!
I know I was wrong, and I admit it, but I just won't change! Oh, it's just for fun! - Albus·Admit mistakes actively·Unrepentant·What can you do to me·Dumbledore

Ada slapped her forehead, and her smooth forehead made a crisp "pop" sound, which meant it was a good start.

No, we were just chatting peacefully today, why did he suddenly get angry? He just gouged someone's eyeballs for fun!
Seeing Dumbledore's serious expression, Ada knew that he was not joking and really wanted to duel with her to decide the winner.

Although she was somewhat reluctant, Ada still drew out her wand. There was no reason for her to be cowardly. It was just a duel, and it didn't matter who she was fighting against! She would take revenge for her grudges and pay them back today!

"Today, the legendary Elder Wand will change its owner again." Ida said with a smile, "From now on, its name will be Drizzt."

According to universal theory, a wizard's wand can be forcibly taken away, and when the owner of the wand loses to the other party, the ownership of the wand will be transferred accordingly.

This is vividly reflected in the Elder Wand, which only obeys the strong and the weak.

After the evil monster Egbert slaughtered the evil man Murrick, the owner of the Elder Wand changed from Murrick to Egbert; Loxias obtained the Elder Wand by killing Barnabas DeFriel.

Dumbledore also became the new owner of the Elder Wand only after defeating Grindelwald. In other words, the moment Ada defeated Dumbledore, she would become the owner of the Elder Wand.

Even if Dumbledore still holds the Elder Wand, this legendary wand will no longer obey him and will no longer be as easy to use as before. If someone wants to use the Elder Wand to hurt Ada, the Elder Wand will resist casting spells.

"It's good to be confident. Young people should be full of energy like this." Dumbledore said, "However, excessive confidence is arrogance."

Dumbledore raised his injured right hand and continued, "Although my right hand is not as good as before due to this annoying injury, don't underestimate me! Do you want to make a bet between you and me?"

"What are you betting on?" Ada asked. She was also looking at the right hand. The irreversible injury fully demonstrated the viciousness of black magic.

"Let me think about it. First of all, it can't be wealth. That's your life." Dumbledore said with a smile, without any tension before the war. "How about this, if I win, you give up control of the Ministry of Magic and return to school."

Going back to school is just a rhetoric, and both of them understand the meaning, but they just don't say it clearly. If Ada really goes back to school literally, do you think she will be a student or a professor?

If Ada were to become a professor, there wouldn't be many positions at Hogwarts. Who would give her a job? She wouldn't be able to be a gamekeeper or a school administrator. If she went back, Ada would just be a student and prepare for the summer exam.

"Professor, what if I win?" Ida asked, "An old wand that has been broken into countless hands is not enough."

She was full of disdain, disdain for the bet. Besides, if she won, the Elder Wand would be hers anyway, so why would Dumbledore lose? It was impossible to get something for nothing.

Defeating Dumbledore was something Ada had never dared to think about before, but now she not only dared to think about it, but also dared to do it.

The life-and-death battle with Voldemort made Ada realize her own weight and gave her enough confidence.

With her own strength improving rapidly and Dumbledore suffering from the injury of his right hand, Ada naturally had the confidence to defeat Dumbledore, so she asked this question.

"Of course, of course, this possibility cannot be ruled out. I have also heard about the incident at Malfoy Manor," said Dumbledore.

Dumbledore only found out about this the next day. If he had known about the Ministry of Magic's actions earlier, he might have been able to pull off a double kill.

After a moment's silence, he added, "I really have nothing to lose to you. Let's put it this way. If you win, I will give you all the memories I have collected about Tom. In addition, I can promise you one thing, anything."

The stakes were high. Not to mention the old wand that many wizards coveted, Dumbledore's promise alone was worth more than a thousand gold. It was hard for Ada to be dissatisfied. After the bet was settled, the duel naturally began. The two of them first stepped back a few steps to distance themselves from each other.

Then, they both bowed again and held their wands in front of their chests like arrows.

"Three... two... one" As the two finished counting down, they both raised their wands above their heads at the same time and swung them half a circle like whips.

The same head-wrapping action was used, and two dazzling red lights shot out. The dazzling red light hit the air, and the surging magic power surged with the explosion, shaking up layers of water waves.

Amid the deafening explosion, Ada repeatedly stabbed out her wand, and disarming spells and stunning spells fell continuously towards Dumbledore's position. The failed spells shattered one huge rock on the shore after another.

Dumbledore moved lightly and instantly appeared on a slope beside Ada, looking down from above! His robes fluttered, his hair and beard flying, and he raised his hand to deliver a powerful blow.

Her skirt fluttered, and Ada, who was afraid to take the spell head-on, moved sideways a few steps, pointing her wand at the lake, causing the surface of the lake to fluctuate violently.

Dumbledore's powerful blow landed on the ground, instantly creating a big hole in the ground, and sand and gravel flew all over the sky.

At the same time, under the pull of magic, the lake water produced several murderous water arrows, which were shooting towards the slope where the principal was at different angles.

This was not the end. Ada rolled up the magic wand in her hand, rolling up the flying sand and gravel, and then chopped the magic wand down with force. The sand and gravel that had been condensed into a ball came in an instant like a cannonball.

It was unclear whether the water arrows fell first or the sand and gravel like cannonballs landed first. Dust suddenly flew all over the slope, and the ground shook three times.

According to the law of smoke without wounds, when the flying dust settled, Dumbledore was indeed unharmed, but the slope under his feet had become flat and it could no longer be seen what it originally looked like.

Dumbledore's sleeves fluttered, and his extraordinary magical power surged out. Ada also raised her wand at the same time, and the two magical powers met again in the air.

This time there was no direct explosion, but instead they were linked together to form a beam of light as thick as an arm.

The magic powers of different attributes collided and rubbed against the air, making a harsh sound, just like a hundred female ghosts screaming in your ears.

Wherever the magic power was connected, arcs of light kept scattering. These lights either fell on the ground, making the lakeside bumpy, or fell into the lake, creating layers of waves.

As time passed, the small pits on the ground gradually connected into one, and the surging lake water flowed back, submerging the land on the shore.

In the stalemate, Ada decided to change her tactics. She was standing not far from the lake. Although the flooded water would not drown her, it would still cause a lot of trouble. Ada now looked like a lonely boat that had strayed into the ocean.

The lake water once again flooded over Ada's shoes, and she suddenly withdrew her wand, ducked down and disappeared into the water before the magic beam hit her. The powerful magic fell into the water, stirring up splashes several stories high.

Dumbledore's charred and dry right hand trembled slightly. His blue eyes searched around to determine where Ada might be, but he did not find any trace of Ada by the lake, on the undulating hillside behind him, or on the rocks on both sides where he could hide.

Just as Dumbledore was wondering, a black fog as thick as ink appeared in the sky!
Have you ever heard of a magic trick that falls from the sky!
The black mist fell rapidly like a meteor, cutting through the sky in an instant, and slammed into the ground with an unstoppable momentum. However, Dumbledore was unaware of this.
