Retrieve the rocket launcher, untie the ropes binding him, and, holding Tonks, plunge into the deep pool below the waterfall.
Chapter 33 Return to Hogwarts
One minute after Su Yu led Tonks away from the castle, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared out of thin air. It was Kingsley leading two other Auror squads to rescue Tonks.
It turns out that the Ministry of Magic received information that suspected vampire activity in the town of Northumberland, so it dispatched Kingsley's team to investigate.
The team quickly discovered a sudden increase in the death rate in the town. In addition, three young women had gone missing. The investigation team suspected vampires and focused their attention on the ancient castle in the woods.
The facts were pretty much as they expected, but to their surprise, this vampire turned out to be a powerful being of earl rank.
After a battle, Kingsley escaped with the rest of his team, while Tonks, whose identity as Magus was discovered, was spared by Dracula, who risked injury to turn her into a vampire through the Embrace ritual.
After Kingsley led his team back, he immediately gathered three more Auror squads to prepare to return and rescue Tonks.
But when they returned to the castle, they found that Tonks and the vampire were gone, and the scene was full of signs of a fight.
Kingsley, with his extensive experience, immediately deduced that there were fire spells, explosion spells, and Patronus spells, among others. Moreover, judging from the remaining marks on the wall, there should have been four or five wizards present.
“It seems someone came to rescue Tonks before us!” one of the Auror captains said.
Kingsley looked up at the dome and said, "That's right, the person should have been rescued, but the vampire count should have caught up with them too. Let's follow!"
A dozen or so Aurors pulled out their flying brooms and flew out through the hole in the dome. With almost no effort, they spotted Dracula, who was high in the air.
They didn't notice anything unusual about Dracula. A dozen spells were fired at the same time, hitting Dracula and knocking him down from the sky, but also waking him up.
Once he regained consciousness, Dracula realized that he had been drugged with some kind of hallucinogenic potion, which allowed the disguised Magus to escape.
He was furious and frustrated, his anger about to explode, but the pain in his body told him that now was not the time to continue searching for the disguised Magus.
The power of Dracula's bloodline surged wildly, and the wounds on his body inflicted by the curse healed at a visible speed. Then, he flapped his wings violently, and his whole body turned into a blood mist, rushing towards one of the male witches at a speed that was almost instantaneous.
If Su Yu saw the astonishing speed Dracula was unleashing right now, he would definitely be glad he didn't choose to escape on his motorcycle. If Dracula had struck him like that in mid-air, the motorcycle would probably have been totaled.
The sorcerer was prepared and cast an Ironclad Curse on himself, but the curse shattered in less than a tenth of a second.
Taking advantage of the opening, the wizard dodged to the left, avoiding a fatal blow, but his right arm was torn apart by Dracula, and he fell off the flying broom.
Dracula gripped the sorcerer's arm with his right hand and pulled at the severed area with his left. Blood immediately gushed out and gathered into a blood sphere at his fingertips.
With a wave of his hand, Dracula transformed the blood orb into five blood arrows, which shot towards the surrounding Aurors.
The Aurors were alarmed. They waved their wands, scattering and casting all sorts of spells at Dracula. Dracula, like a lion charging into a pack of hyenas, used his wings to block the spells while simultaneously attacking the Aurors.
In the end, Dracula shattered the flying brooms of six Aurors and escaped, but he himself was also badly injured, with scorched skin on his wings and a huge laceration on his chest that almost exposed his heart.
"Should we continue the pursuit?" an Auror captain asked Kingsley.
Kingsley's face darkened. He said, "Let's not chase him. This guy is too strong. He's almost a marquis. We have a few wounded. Let's go back to the Ministry of Magic for treatment."
"What about Tonks?" a young man next to me asked anxiously.
"Don't worry, since Tonks has already been rescued, she's definitely not in danger. She'll come back on her own." Kingsley's words were somewhat helpless, because he had no idea where to find her.
Meanwhile, after Su Yu and Tonks fell into the pool, Su Yu quickly realized that Tonks was unable to hold his breath and could only breathe normally.
Upon entering the water, Tonks, who was breathing normally, choked on the water, his eyes revealing his discomfort.
There was no other way; as the protagonist of justice, Su Yu had to give her the air from his lungs. What kind of "bubble head spell" did Su Yu know?
Of course, this was also to prevent Dracula outside from noticing the traces of magic and continuing to chase after them. Su Yu leaned forward and kissed Tonks' lips. The lips were a little cool, but very soft, and had a faint sweet taste.
Tonks' eyes first showed surprise, then turned to shyness. Su Yu held Tonks while paddling with his feet and observing the underwater environment.
He soon discovered a cave, so Su Yu and Tonks swam into the cave together.
The situation was urgent just now, so Su Yu didn't pay much attention. But now, in this state between the two of them, Su Yu felt the sweetness between their lips and teeth, the smooth touch in his hands, and the soft, bouncy feeling in his arms. He couldn't help but feel a little aroused.
Although Tonks was unable to move or speak, she could still feel touch, and her gauze dress was wet, making it almost invisible.
It was still a bit chilly in England at the end of October, but as the two of them swam, their bodies became incredibly hot.
With a whoosh, Su Yu and Tonks finally emerged from the water, as if they had entered an underground cave.
After getting ashore, Su Yu took out a magic lamp from his seamless extension bag and illuminated the cave, startling the bats into squeaking.
He cast a cleansing spell, removing all moisture from their bodies. Su Yu then wrapped Tonks completely in one of his wizard robes before asking:
"Tonks, I'll ask you a question, and you answer it. If you can, move your eyes up and down; if not, shake them left and right. Can you do that?"
Tonks' eyes immediately darted up and down. Su Yu continued, "Is the magic power in your body currently flowing normally?"
Tonks said no.
"Are your five senses functioning normally?"
Tonks said yes.
"Can you sense the magic in the outside world?" Su Yu said, casting another illuminating spell and holding the wand close to Tonks so that she could feel it carefully.
After so much time, Dracula still hadn't caught up, so he figured he and Tonks should be safe by now. But this time, Tonks said it still wasn't possible.
That means that all of Tonks' magic-related abilities are now sealed, as is his ability to move. This could be two restrictions. Su Yu pondered for a long time but was still completely baffled.
However, considering that vampires are dark creatures and most likely use curses, Su Yu rummaged through the bag again and finally found a ring.
This thing is called the Anti-Curse Ring. It was also crafted by Su Yu in collaboration with that master apothecary when he was in America.
The ring is set with a gem containing a magical potion that can continuously absorb the curse within the wizard's body until the gem inside the ring turns from blue to black, at which point it will become ineffective.
Su Yu slipped the ring onto Tonks' middle finger. The next moment, a visible black aura appeared on Tonks' body. The black aura then slowly gathered, traveled across her skin, and finally entered the ring.
Tonks sprang to his feet as if he had just been rescued from drowning, gasping for breath.
Then she stood up, lunged at Su Yu, and hugged Su Yu's neck tightly with both arms, so much so that the wizard robe covering her fell off, revealing the vampire maid outfit once again.
"Su, thank you... Waaah... Thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have died. I was so scared, so scared... Waaah..." Tonks said between sobs.
Su Yu naturally hugged her back and gently stroked her smooth shoulders to calm her down: "It's okay, it's okay, we're safe now, everything's alright."
After crying for a while, Tonks realized that she was wearing too little clothing. She hurriedly got off Su Yu, picked up the wizard's robe from the ground and put it on, saying shyly, "It's a little cold!"
Su Yu sensed Tonks' embarrassment, coughed twice, and thought about how to change the subject.
Tonks was the first to exclaim in surprise, "Oh dear, my magic still won't work?"
Just now, Tonks subconsciously tried to use magic to warm her body, but she realized that although the restraints on her body had been lifted, the magic within her body still could not flow, which terrified her.
Su Yu frowned, took Tonks' hand, and glanced at the ring. Although the color had deepened considerably, it hadn't completely turned black, which meant that what was imprisoning Tonks' magic wasn't a curse.
Su Yu felt that the situation was beyond his ability to resolve and said, "Why don't you come back to Hogwarts with me first and let Headmaster Dumbledore take a look? I think he will definitely have a way to solve it."
"Okay!" Tonks agreed without hesitation. After what had just happened, she felt a strong sense of security with Su Yu by her side and didn't want to be separated from him at all.
Looking at the ring on her hand, Tonks' mind raced: Why did Sue put the ring on my middle finger? Does he want to get engaged to me? But he hasn't said anything yet. If he really proposes, should I say yes or no?
Su Yu, of course, had no idea what Tonks was thinking. At this moment, he was pulling Tonks along as they searched for the exit of the cave.
The method is actually quite simple. Since there are bats in the cave, it means there must be an exit. Just keep using the Light Charm to stimulate the bats and make them run away. Follow them and you will find the exit.
Sure enough, half an hour later, Su Yu and Tonks arrived at the bottom of a courtyard. It was already late outside, and the moonlight shone down from the cave entrance, creating a beautiful and serene scene, like a painting.
*Buzz* My phone vibrated in my pocket. I opened it and saw a message from Dumbledore: "Sorry, Sue, I was reading. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Su Yu checked the time; more than four hours had passed since he asked Dumbledore. It really was…
However, Su Yu didn't dare to lose his temper, since he still needed to trouble Old Deng with Tonks' matter. So he replied, "Professor, I'll come to see you in an hour. I'm afraid there might be some minor trouble."
After making the appointment with Dumbledore, Su Yu took out the motorcycle from the Seamless Stretch Bag, opened the storage box in the back, and said, "You go inside and stay there first. I'll call you out when we get there."
"No, I want to sit in the back!" Tonks had already straddled the back seat as he spoke. Seeing this, Su Yu didn't say anything more. He got on the motorcycle, twisted the throttle, and the motorcycle shot into the night sky.
"Don't drive so fast, slow down!" Tonks, sitting in the back, wrapped his arms around Su Yu's waist and pressed his face against his back.
"Are you cold?" Su Yu asked.
“I’m not cold, I just feel really good and comfortable!” Tonks said softly.
Su Yu laughed and said, "You like riding motorcycles too? I'll give you one later so you can ride around whenever you want."
Tonks rolled her eyes but didn't argue. Instead, she changed the subject, saying, "By the way, Sue, my phone was taken by that vampire count. I don't know if it's been broken."
Su Yu wasn't worried about Dracula learning to use the magic phone. The phone account he gave to Tonks was linked to only Su Yu as a friend. Even if Dracula got it, he could only send messages to Su Yu. So he said:
“It’s alright, Dracula can’t use that phone. I’ll make you another one when we get back. This time I’ll add a real-time location tracking function so I can find you anytime.”
"Okay!" Su Yu's words made Tonks feel sweet, a sense of being cared for and happy.
Although the speed was slowed down, Britain is only a small place in total, and Su Yu returned to Hogwarts in about fifty minutes.
Today's experience was truly too sudden and too thrilling. Su Yu estimated that Dracula's magic resistance, strength, speed, and attack power should all be at the LV8-LV9 level.
Fortunately, that guy didn't have any ranged attack magic, otherwise Su Yu might have really been doomed on this trip.
Su Yu felt extremely tired, but it wasn't time to sleep yet. He led Tonks to Dumbledore's office.
"Professor Dumbledore, good evening!" Tonks appeared somewhat reserved upon seeing Dumbledore and bowed respectfully.
Dumbledore had a deep impression of Tonks, after all, she was disguised as Magus, and anyone would easily remember her, especially since she was a student who had studied at Hogwarts for 7 years.
Dumbledore looked at the two of them with some surprise and asked, "Sue, Tonks, how did you two end up together?"
“It’s like this…” Su Yu recounted the events of the day to Dumbledore in detail, while Tonks added some details about the situation before Su Yu went there.
Upon hearing this, Dumbledore frowned. He took out his wand, pointed it at Tonks, and the tip of the wand emitted a milky white light, somewhat like the Patronus Charm. However, Su Yu could sense that the two spells flowed magic in completely different ways.
The milky white light touched Tonks' body and quickly seeped in, but was soon squeezed out. After it came out, the milky white light turned blood red.
Dumbledore put away his wand and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a type of blood magic unique to the vampire race."
"Professor, can Tonks recover?" Su Yu asked worriedly.
“Don’t worry, Sue, I think I can handle this. But Tonks, you may have to stay at Hogwarts for a while. I’ll write to Kingsley and ask for a long leave for you,” Dumbledore said.
Tonks, completely oblivious to any annoyance, replied with a delighted expression, "Yes, Professor, I have no problem."
Then, realizing that his attitude was somewhat problematic, he quickly toned it down and explained, "I mean, I haven't been back to school for several years, so I'd be happy to be able to stay at school for a while."
Dumbledore saw right through the girl's thoughts and said with a smile, "Su, I remember you have two bedrooms in your office, right?"
“Yes, Professor!” Su Yu replied.
“In that case, why don’t you let Tonks stay in your guest room for now? That way, you can observe any situation immediately. Tonks, what do you think?” Dumbledore said, then turned to Tonks with a half-smile.
Tonks blushed slightly, but still lowered her head and said, "I'm fine, then I'll take my leave of Professor Su!"
