HP: Azkaban's Outstanding Graduate

A tiny crystal bottle caught a drop of his blood, and the other three followed suit, each cutting their palms and taking a drop of blood to put into the bottle.

“I am Sagles Greengrass…”

The other three also spoke at the same time.

“I, Welis Nicole/Baricna Wolf/Iris Lumina:

The stars bear witness, and blood ties serve as the covenant.

Once the secrets of each other's wands are revealed, the contractors must keep it a secret.

It must not be disclosed verbally.

It must not be recorded in writing.

Magical suggestion is prohibited;

Those who leak secrets will die from exhaustion, and those who betray their faith will perish from the dissipation of their magic.

From this moment on, the oath becomes a shackle.

The ceremony will end when the last oath-taker is buried in the cemetery.

As the four men finished their oath, the blood in the bottle immediately turned into golden threads that flew out, eventually wrapping around their index fingers before seeping into their skin and disappearing.

The oath has been made, and the unbreakable curse is now in effect.

Chapter 15: The Operation Begins

Sagres's expression softened slightly, and before setting off, he asked a few final questions, "Red Falcon, why did those two dark wizards target you?"

"They saw my crystal ball, I guess that's why..."

Sagres's expression turned serious, and Nightingale quickly warned her, "We've told you more than once not to show your divination talents and tools to other wizards, especially Gypsy wizards!"

The little girl lowered her head; she was clearly afraid of Sagres's serious demeanor.

Seeing this, Thunderbird quickly changed the subject, mentioning some information he had obtained from Gregorovich: "I got some research manuscripts about the Elder Wand, and some of the techniques mentioned are things I've never even considered before... I mean, they're quite different from the traditional techniques of the Wolf family..."

Finally, the Red Falcon couldn't help but ask, "Did Thunderbird and I just wait in the safe house the whole time?"

Sagrais nodded: "Nightingale and I will first go to find old Helios to retrieve her sea monster heart, then head to the place you prophesied to find the materials, and finally give the materials to Thunderbird to make the wand."

Nightingale added with a hint of reassurance, "Don't worry, if your prophecy is correct, then we will definitely be able to find the materials we need there."

Thunderbird joked, "If I went with you, I'd only cause more trouble, so staying here is already a huge help to them."

Before leaving, Sagrais warned the red-haired witch again: "You cannot use the crystal ball for divination for a year, unless you wish your life to end!"

"Oh, I understand," the kestrel replied, looking rather unsure of itself.

Sagres ignored her and instead asked Thunderbird, "Do you have a spare wand? I need one to borrow temporarily; the one I had before is broken."

Thunderbird immediately took out several wands from his bag for Sagres to choose from. However, as a traditional North American wand-making family, Wolff had produced several wands that were typical of the North American style, which Sagres found somewhat unsuitable. But they were better than nothing.

After putting his wand into his robe pouch, Sagres turned to Nightingale and said, "Do you have any more Felix Felicis? Give each of them two drops, and also get them some other common potions for backup."

Nightingale nodded, took out a bunch of colorful crystal bottles from her wizard's robe, and distributed them one by one to Thunderbird and Red Falcon.

"Although you two won't appear directly at the prophetic location, you absolutely must be careful. This operation has already gone wrong a lot, and I don't want to hear any more news of anyone getting injured."

The kestrels and the thunderbird nodded seriously, and Sagras added, "The prophecy says that all of our actions will be hindered, so if you really encounter danger, crush it."

He handed a sea monster eyeball to Thunderbird, saying, "This is a door key, illegal, but it can help you escape danger."

After everything was prepared, Sagres took out his Norwegian sea monster heart and cast a spell to turn it into a temporary door key.

This key will lead them to another sea monster's heart, where the two should be able to give old Helios a surprise he'll never forget...

Sagres took Nightingale's hand, nodded to the other two people in the cabin, and then grabbed the key and left the safe house.

The spell light flashed and disappeared in an instant, and the two figures vanished.

The feeling of using a door key to pass through is quite strange, like forcibly stuffing your body into a bottle and then squeezing it out of the bottle opening.

Once the feeling completely disappeared, the two appeared inside a dusty magical ruin.

The moment they revealed themselves, a dark wave of energy rushed toward them.

Sargeras suddenly raised his wand, and a powerful armor spell instantly blocked the attack. At the same time, Nightingale used a levitation spell to control the tables and chairs, blocking the opponent's view.

"Thunderous explosion!"

A yellow beam of magical light shot out from the corner, instantly striking the obstacle blocking the view. A series of crackling explosions followed, blasting the floating tables and chairs into pieces.

A strange laugh came from behind the flying debris, a sound like a duck being choked, "Huh? It's you again, you greedy woman!"

Ellios's voice was erratic, clearly indicating that he was constantly shifting his position.

“I am not greedy; I am just here to take back what is rightfully mine,” Nightingale said calmly as she continued to manipulate the debris.

"Oh...is that so?"

"I have no reason to lie to you."

Avada Kedavra!

She was met with a dazzling green light.

Nightingale decisively used the obstacle to block the killing spell, then raised her hand and projected the debris in the air toward the source of the green light.

"Armor Protection"

Elios used his Ironclad Charm to block the attack, then countered with a Stunning Charm. "Don't think I don't know what you're up to!"

He shouted angrily, "You are all coveting my skills and trying to steal my research results!"

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp cutting spell grazed his scalp. Elios touched his smooth head in horror, a sudden wave of indescribable shame washing over him.

"You greedy robbers, I'll show you what Elios is all about!"

The old man waved his wand, and waves surged up from the dusty ground. Countless monsters emerged from the ground and launched a relentless attack on the two of them.

Some of these monsters were humanoid, while others were magical creatures. Without exception, their smooth bodies were covered with twisted black blood vessels.

"Haha, I almost forgot, you were also struck by my spell."

The old man suddenly remembered that this woman had been struck by his spell during the previous battle. This discovery delighted him, because she was about to be cursed and turned into his puppet, just like these monsters.

“To be honest, you really surprise me…” Elios stirred his wand, black smoke billowing from its tip. “You can still use magic even after being under my spell… It seems you have an extremely strong capacity for endurance.”

"In the more than ninety years I've mastered this magic, there are very few who can do this..."

"Violent blood plague!"

He pointed his wand sharply at the two of them, and the black smoke immediately transformed into three slender venomous snakes, which then flew into Sagres's palm like lightning.

"Ha! So someone helped you transfer the curse..."

Elios looked even happier. "Very well, so you're the one who cut my hair, aren't you?"

Sagres did not answer his question, for at that moment an indescribable pain was emanating from his cursed right hand, causing him to frown.

Chapter 16 Philk Helios

Upon seeing this, Nightingale immediately unleashed a large cloud of ice mist to slow the monster's speed, and then decisively used a banishment spell to control Sargeras to retreat, wanting to get away from the battlefield.

"Don't worry about me, kill him!"

Sagres spoke calmly, casually casting a "mechanical mind" spell on himself.

A blue light swept past, and although the pain in his body did not lessen in the slightest, his reason, which had been eroded by the pain, returned to him once more.

"Rampage Explosion!"

Sargeras turned and unleashed an explosive spell, the terrifying explosion scattering the monsters, but some of the cursed monsters had already gotten close to them.

In the shadows, Elios was startled by the astonishing destructive power of Sagres. Realizing that things seemed to be getting out of control, he immediately decided to slip away.

Sagres immediately sensed his intention, and with a shattering spell he blasted the monster in front of him into pieces, then immediately pointed his wand at the old man.

Pale flames ignited from the tip of the staff, and the pure white guardian, accompanied by raging flames, rushed swiftly toward Elios.

The flames burned away all the monsters that stood in their way, clearing a clean passage between Sargeras and Elios.

"Summon Dispel!"

Elios quickly released a dark, magical light to block the guardian deity.

"disperse"

"disperse"

……

It took the old man several exorcism spells to completely drive away the guardian spirit of Sagrais.

He was breathing heavily when he hardened his heart and unleashed a red cursed light at the monster.

"Flesh and blood withered!"

As the hoarse voice faded, all the monsters suddenly increased in speed, their black veins bulged, and then burst one after another, splattering out cursed, poisonous blood.

The situation became increasingly critical. Sargeras used "Obstacles" to knock away several approaching monsters, followed by a Slicing Curse that shredded them in mid-air.

"Holy Light Expel!"

A pure white blade of light shot out from his wand, and the cursed monster in front of him instantly disintegrated into bones scattered on the ground upon being struck by the blade.

At this moment, Nightingale also quickly approached Elios, but several canine monsters were pouncing on her from the side.

"Quicksand trap!"

The canine monster was immediately dragged into the quicksand vortex and buried.

"A swampy abyss!"

A long swamp appeared between the monster and the Sargeras, halting their rampage.

At this point, Sagres was finally able to free his hands.
