My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

Chapter 301, Chapter 298: A Verbal Exchange

The jet-black wings obscured the soft moonlight.

The wind in the sky was much fiercer than on the ground, wildly whipping her ink-black hair.

The ominous scarlet eyes held a chilling coldness like ice that had never melted in a thousand years.

Countless young wizards outside the castle witnessed this scene, which resembled a painting by one of the most talented painters of the Middle Ages depicting a magnificent spectacle of an angel falling from heaven.

They stared in disbelief, mouths agape, seemingly unable to comprehend how their Defense Against the Dark Arts professor could have transformed into something that didn't even look human.

Even the professors, including Professor McGonagall, looked up at the sky in bewilderment; none of them knew what Professor Lockhart was.

Fortunately, Lynn was far enough away from them, otherwise some students might have noticed that the thing Professor Lockhart conjured looked too much like one of Slytherin's students.

At the same time, Fontana also saw Lynn's current appearance clearly.

"So it was you!" she shrieked. "So it was you who wreaked havoc on the magical world of Su, killed the Su's Auror Director, and caused the Su's Magic Council to split!"

Of course she had seen all the information about Lynn in this state. Although Lynn's splitting of the magic world in the Kingdom of Su was very beneficial to the Magic Congress, his display of magic in front of a mere grunt violated the ironclad rule of the magic world that no one could touch!

So, in the United States, Lynn's current state and his wanted posters are spread everywhere, and almost every American wizard can remember Lynn.

Because of his appearance, a normal person who sees him once will probably never forget him for the rest of their life.

"Not a single member of the Grindelwald family is any good! Every single one of you is a demon! You've destroyed nations, ruined families, and taken lives! You've committed countless evil deeds! You deserve to bear the most terrible curse for all eternity!"

Fontana had completely lost her initial composure and calmness.

Because she realized that things were getting increasingly out of her control, and Lynn's current strength was much greater than she had anticipated.

The unpleasant serpentine voice rang out from her throat again. The basilisk made its judgment based on the direction she indicated, and fiercely swung its tail high into the air, striking at Lynn who was flying in mid-air.

With his agility enhanced as he flew through the air, Lynn dodged the basilisk's attacks while exchanging insults with Fontana.

"If your curses were effective, I wouldn't exist now. But it's really laughable; surely no one actually believes they can curse the Grindelwald family? Really? Surely no one's that stupid?"

"You're asking for it! Avada Kedavra!"

A dark green spell, imbued with Fontana's rage, shot towards Lynn, who easily dodged it and then retaliated with an explosive spell.

"They say our family kills without blinking an eye?"

I have no right to mention my great-uncle's affairs; that was his personal dream of benefiting all wizards.

Speaking specifically about you, why did I kill Ivanov in the Soviet Union?

Isn't it because you people are shameless? You were bullied by my great-uncle before, but you didn't dare to go to him. Instead, you went to seek revenge on his nephew's family, who had long since separated from his family.

If what you're saying is true, what did my parents do wrong? Did they support Grindelwald? Did they join the Saints?

They just wanted to live a peaceful life in one place, but even such a simple request couldn't be met, and you guys ended up killing them.

Aren't you people destroying families? Aren't you taking lives?

So you guys are just shameless, doing things even more shameless than others while simultaneously criticizing others for being shameless? Is this what they mean by "wanting to be a prostitute and then trying to maintain a virtuous image"?

The basilisk twisted its body, shifting Fontana's position with it, barely managing to dodge Lynn's Explosive Curse. However, the aftershocks still affected her, leaving her covered in dust and dirt, and Lynn's curses nearly made her gasp for breath.

"You came looking for me to kill me, fine, after all, it's understandable that you have a grudge against me, but what kind of logic is it that you want to destroy Hogwarts?"

Attracted by its long history and extensive collection of books? Consider that Iphamoni was only founded in the 17th century, with a short history and started as just a small, dilapidated house.

So it was jealousy?

But who stopped my great-uncle from continuing to wreak havoc on you? If it weren't for Dumbledore, would you have the good life you have today?

Is this how you intend to repay him now?

It seems you're not only trying to be virtuous while pretending to be prostitutes, but also ungrateful scoundrels!

Fontana was so angry at Lynn's insults that she felt like vomiting blood, but she had no way to refute them and could only listen. Of course, she would fight back.

"Avada Kedavra!"

The green light once again pierced the black sky, but Lynn paid no attention to her attack.

"Besides Avada Kedavra, can't you write anything else? Oh! I almost forgot, this body you're in now isn't even yours. Even if you used other spells, they wouldn't have any effect. You cried and sobbed in my office for a long time because of that."

"Hiss hiss hiss!"

Instead of wasting spells on Lynn, Fontana gave direct orders to the basilisk.

The basilisk hesitated for a moment, somewhat fearful, but under Fontana's strong command, it had no choice but to launch another fierce attack on Lynn, and it could not use its tail, only its head!

Its entire body was spreading towards Lynn, as if to surround him and block his escape route.

Lynn was not going to let it succeed. The basilisk was too big, and even though it moved very fast, it was no match for Lynn's reaction.

He spread his wings, raised his sword, and soared into the sky, aiming straight at the basilisk's outstretched jaw. The basilisk seemed not to have reacted at all, neither dodging nor avoiding, and just let Lynn rush over!

"Pfft!"

Apart from its two eyes, only the lower jaw was not covered by armor. Gryffindor's sword did not pierce the armor before penetrating the flesh, but drew blood on the spot, all the way to the hilt!

The basilisk roared and struggled to shake Lynn off, but Lynn held on tightly to the hilt of Gryffindor's sword. The blade seemed to be stuck in the bone, and even with Lynn's current strength, he couldn't pull it out.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Fontana, who was not far away, certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by. She waved her wand at Lynn and cast another Killing Curse.

Lynn didn't stand still and wait to be hit by the spell, nor did he choose to abandon Gryffindor's sword to create distance. Instead, he leaped directly onto the top of the basilisk's head.
