The mastermind behind Hogwarts

Chapter 561 Applying Pressure

"Lilith Pilivik!"

"And a Sorting Hat?"

"She pulled the Gryffindor sword from her hat!"

The young wizards watching looked at Lilith with astonishment, as if they had seen an alien.

"brush."

Lilith gripped the brim of her hat with her left hand as if it were a scabbard, and with her right hand she held the hilt of the sword, easily drawing it!

The large ruby ​​on the hilt of the sword gleamed brightly.

The gleaming sword blade reflected the sunlight, mirroring Lilith's exquisite and beautiful face.

"Sir Lancelot, the next duelist is me."

Lilith raised her sword and aimed it at Lancelot in the center of the dueling arena.

Lilith's eyes shone with determination and courage, and a confident smile played on her lips.

Standing in the warm sunlight, with the Gryffindor sword at her side, Lilith exuded immense courage and determination, and people seemed to see a Valkyrie.

The young wizards were captivated by Lilith's charisma and murmured their admiration.

Gump remembered something and asked Dumbledore beside him, "I heard that Pilliwick pulled the Gryffindor sword from the Sorting Hat during the Sorting Ceremony?"

Dumbledore's deep blue eyes flickered slightly as he recalled, "Yes, it happened five years ago, and it feels like it happened just yesterday in my memory."

Grindelwald also cast a glance at Lilith. "A Slytherin student has drawn the Gryffindor sword. Hey, is this really Hogwarts? Miracles always happen here."

Dumbledore didn't reply because Gump was there.

He watched as Lilith slowly walked to the dueling arena. As she passed Moriarty, Lilith triumphantly brandished her sword at him, and then received encouragement.

How could Dumbledore, who had lived for over a hundred years, not see the affection in their relationship?

"Perhaps without Moriarty, genius wizards like Lilith and Jericho wouldn't have come to Hogwarts, and problem children like Marcus and Soldaya wouldn't have changed."

This is Dumbledore's true feeling.

It's not appropriate to say it if Gamp is around.

Gamp, on the other hand, thought: "If I become a god, I will have the power to control this world at will."

In that time, everyone will have the Gryffindor sword and everyone will have powerful magic.

In God's world, there are no regrets, no failures, and no worries!

Seeing the envy and longing in the eyes of the young wizards, Gamp reaffirmed his belief in becoming a god.

In the dueling arena, Lilith and Lancelot got into position.

"You are the first female duelist," Lancelot said with a slight compliment. "If you wish, I can allow you to wear knight's armor—I brought many for Beauxbatons' students; you can choose one."

"Thank you for your kindness." Lilith nodded politely, then released magic to cover her body.

"However... my situation is a bit special, so Professor, please don't let me defeat you!"

A white snake suddenly appeared around Lilith's waist, coiling around her slender figure.

"hiss…"

"Merlin! What is that?"

"Look at Lilith-senpai, her head—"

The crowd panicked.

The white snake gradually swelled up, then stuck to Lilith's body like a punctured balloon, turning into a white snake armor!

The snake head transformed into a helmet, protecting Lilith's head. It featured a snake head model with snake eyes emitting an eerie purple light.

"Transfiguration..." A look of seriousness flashed in Lancelot's eyes.

Professor McGonagall, who was teaching in Hogwarts Castle, saw Lilith's transformation through the window.

Several years ago, Lilith consulted Professor McGonagall about the art of shapeshifting, and ever since then, Professor McGonagall has worried that Lilith is losing her way in the pursuit of power.

Today, it seems that Lilith has the ability to protect herself.

But then Professor McGonagall thought of Hermione Granger.

This little girl also seemed to have a special fondness for transfigured objects, and kept asking her questions about Animagus.

Sigh, I wonder what the little witches are thinking.

Hermione, whom Professor McGonagall was referring to, was standing on tiptoe, excitedly watching Lilith transform.

"Professor, I won't stand on ceremony."

With her Gryffindor sword in hand, Lilith's confidence was greatly boosted. Without using her wand, she charged forward, sword in hand.

"You've ignited my passion too!" Lancelot's eyes gleamed; Lilith's actions aligned with his ideal of a knightly duel.

A true knight fights with a sword!

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"

Lilith and Lancelot exchanged dozens of blows.

Both the Gryffindor sword and the Lancelot family's knight's sword are among the top-tier swords in the HP universe.

Lilith incorporated her understanding of magic and her determination about her life path into the story, while Lancelot adhered to the code of chivalry.

Each clash of the two swords generated a powerful sword aura, creating a whirlwind that made people pale.

Moriarty, who was watching, clapped his hands, nodded, and smiled, saying, "I never expected that the most thrilling battle would take place between two female knights!"

Many people nodded seriously, and Soldaya quipped, "Why did you have to make such a big deal out of criticizing Jericho by name?"

"Hehehe, come and fight me if you dare," Jericho made a face. "Everyone knows you can't catch me on a broomstick."

"Alright, you two stop. I've already given Pillivik my score." Gamp raised his fist again, not wanting them to continue fighting.

The Three Kingdoms Tournament was restarted to suppress Moriarty, but Moriarty's faction stole the show during Lancelot's trial, which backfired.

Gamp then gave Larpo a wink.

Lalpo understood, and after Lilith left the arena, he entered the dueling arena.

"Sorry, Professor, I'm about to break your undefeated record."

Lancelot has not been defeated yet, although everyone has seen that she is no match for Moriarty.

If the fight had continued, Lancelot would have been defeated by Moriarty, but Gamp stopped the duel.

Lalpo knew what Gamp wanted to do and decided to establish his authority.

"Get your best, Professor. Otherwise, you won't get a chance."

Lalpo stood still, leaning forward, his eyes fixed on Lancelot, locked onto his target.

Lancelot felt immense pressure and not only summoned the Knights of the Round Table but also donned knight's armor.

"start!"

A murderous glint flashed in Larpo's eyes, and he suddenly stretched out his arms.

He stood on the ground like a zombie, startling everyone.

Immediately, the crowd began to laugh, but Larpo snorted coldly, his left arm quickly transforming into a longsword, and his right arm instantly turning into a giant black python!

"what!"

The young wizards were startled, and Larbo ran towards Lancelot with a scream.

He was like a bolt of lightning, incredibly fast, appearing in front of Lancelot before anyone could react.

"What?"

Lancelot felt his vision blur for a moment, and then he saw Lalpo slash his sword at him!

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound like shattering glass, a dark purple vertical crack appeared on the silver-white knight's armor from head to toe.

The armor was torn to pieces, falling to the ground like tattered junk.

Larpo swung his right arm, transforming like a rubber man, and the giant black python grew longer and larger, tightly binding the round table and the 12 knights.

"Bang!"

The next moment, it was twisted to pieces by the snake's body!

Lancelot was also thrown by the impact and crashed to the ground.

Only Larpo stood still, coldly retracting the black snake and longsword, his arms returning to normal.

Sold out instantly!

If this weren't Hogwarts, Lancelot would be Ralph's true enemy.

The shattered armor was Lancelot's fate!

The young wizards were so stunned they couldn't speak, looking at Larbo as if he were a demon.

Gamp seemed to realize something belatedly, raising his fist to stop the duel.

As Lars Po walked off the field, he stared at Dumbledore and Grindelwald and said, "I hope the two professors' test won't be as childish as it is today."

His tone was soft and effeminate, like a snake gliding across the sand, giving you goosebumps.

However, some people can face anything with a smile.

The Weasley twins took turns talking about their next challenger.

After this lighthearted banter, the atmosphere became much more cheerful.

Then several more senior students came up to the stage.

Lancelot's ordeal lasted until dusk.

The young wizards watching the game ate their dinner with unusual heaviness.

Especially among the younger students, Draco complained on Headmaster Gryphon's desk, "I want to get stronger too, but look at that toad—our Defense Against the Dark Arts class is a complete mess!"

Harry nodded and said, "He's right. With a professor like that, we'll never be able to master stronger magic."

Lately, wizards from Gump's lineage have been writing to Harry frequently, and Harry is starting to waver.

Neville, standing nearby, noticed more and more young wizards expressing their dissatisfaction with Umbridge's lessons and glanced toward the Ravenclaw dining table.

He is looking for Hannah and Hermione.

As Moriarty's apprentice, Neville knew about Hermione's suggestion that Moriarty teach him spells.

But what about Hermione?

Where did it go?

(Guess what Hermione is doing right now ヾ(￣0￣；)ノhehehe)
