Chapter 84 Maca VS Sirius Black

It was still the dead of night, and the residents of Hogsmeade village had already fallen asleep. Occasionally, dementors would wander around the village, looking for targets they would never have found.

And on the outskirts of Hogsmeade Village, in the not-so-dense woods, two figures were chasing quickly. Their movements are very agile, even in the forest full of snow, they are still walking like flying.

Occasionally, moonlight fell from the gaps in the branches. When they ran past, the originally dark figures were revealed in a short time.

Running in front is a big black dog, it looks very strong and mighty when running, but it is the one who escaped; not far behind the big black dog is a man wrapped in a gray cloth The little man in the cloak, he didn't even look much taller than the big black dog, but he made the big black dog keep fleeing forward.

That was naturally Sirius Black, and Maca who was still wearing a camouflage outfit.

Not long ago, Maca inadvertently caught a glimpse of Black who was wandering in Hogsmeade village. At first, Maca planned to leave him alone, but after thinking about it, he changed his mind.

When Maca followed Black to another narrow alley, Black, who was in the form of Animagus, suddenly turned around and rushed towards him.

Blackburn thought he could quickly get rid of the trailing one, but the result was different from what he had imagined.

Under Maca's two extremely rapid stun spells in a row, the black dog that Black turned into let out a mournful cry before being knocked out.

It can be seen that Blake's physical condition is not very good. He did dodge in time, but his actions were obviously out of touch with his conscious reaction.

Immediately, Black and Maca started a chase and escape competition in the snow.

Neither of them attracted the attention of the dementors, and they chased all the way to the woods on the outskirts of Hogsmeade.

At the beginning, Maca was almost thrown off by Black's several consecutive accelerations. But when he muttered something in a low voice, his movements became much faster.

As time goes by, the distance between the two becomes closer.

There are many obstacles!

Maca finally seized the right moment, taking advantage of the moment Black leaped forward stepping on the tree trunk, and released the spell he had prepared.

Immediately, Black's figure slowed down, and under the ray of moonlight, Maca could even see the dog fur on his body moving with the wind.

But when Maca was about to release the next spell, he saw that Black's body began to fluctuate and twist, and he returned to his human form in an instant.

Armor protection.

Black's duel level is still very strong, especially his on-the-spot judgment ability is quite accurate. He didn't intend to solve his own predicament first, but reluctantly waved his wand and cast an Iron Armor Charm on himself.

When Maca followed up with a stun spell, the red flame formed by Maca's magic power was blocked in time.

Immediately afterwards, Black said loudly: It's over!

Maca immediately realized that he was going to use the universal counter-curse to remove his impediment spell, this is a good opportunity!

Disarm you! Maca said immediately.

But at the next moment, when he found that Black was still floating in mid-air, he realized that he was fooled!

Almost the second after Maca released the disarming spell, Black also released a disarming spell!

The opponent's timing was quite accurate. Even if Maca found out that something was wrong in time and immediately broke the spell and rushed to the side, it was too late.

The disarming spells of the two sides hit each other successively with a very short time difference, but Black was protected by the remaining Iron Armor Curse.

Although Maca's disarming spell hit Black's body,

But only the opponent's wand was knocked out; in contrast, Black's disarming spell only hit Maca's calf, but his wand had already flown into Black's hand.

All petrified!

Maca tried to get up, but Black was faster than him.

He was almost ready to accept the effect of the Body Binding Curse, but the expected situation didn't happen - he could still move!

Regardless of the reason, he immediately took out a small bottle and threw it into the bushes not far from Black.

Immediately, a puff of smoke spread rapidly in the woods, and in a blink of an eye the nearby area turned into a white mist. The sight of both sides was blocked.

Concentrate!

Maca simply closed his eyes and unfolded his perception.

For a moment, the howling of the cold wind, the rustling of branches and grass leaves, and the sound of Blake's footsteps... All kinds of sounds intertwined and intertwined in Maca's perception, forming a simple but clear world.

After a long period of practice, the ability that he stole from that assassin had already fully grown.

He could even see that Black was walking in the direction where his wand flew out from his memory.

After making a judgment, Maca immediately threw out another bottle. The bottle drew an arc in the air, and landed in the bushes not far away, making a sound.

And it was such a small movement that made Black decisively change back to the Animagus form, and ran away in the opposite direction.

This time, Maca didn't catch up, but leaned against the tree trunk next to him, lost in thought.

...Why do I think that Sirius Black can be easily dealt with?

Since he first entered Hogwarts, his attainment in magic has indeed surpassed his peers by a lot, and even many adult wizards can't match him.

This is indeed something to be proud of, and even Dumbledore has praised him many times.

Although he always reminded himself that the journey of exploring magic is extremely long, with his current progress, he has just taken the first step.

But when the vast majority of people around him can't compare with him, his judgment of his own strength inevitably deviates.

He is not arrogant, nor does he even underestimate the enemy—without his emotions and emotions, he has no chance to be arrogant.

But it was also because he had lost the way of thinking that he was good at, and his behavior based solely on reason became an obstacle to his judgment.

The lack of sensibility makes rationality become difficult to support, and Maca's ability to judge has dropped a lot invisibly.

Even if you can deceive others by pretending emotions, you can't deceive yourself...? Maca murmured.

The white smoke gradually dissipated, revealing a small figure leaning against the tree trunk. In the cold wind in the snow, he couldn't help tightening his old felt cloak tightly.

The already solemn night became even darker.

...

After that night passed, Maca's actions became much more cautious.

After all, no matter who it is, if someone took away the wand because of his own misjudgment, it would probably be the same, right?

Although Maca retrieved Sirius Black's wand, there was actually not much difference in using it - any wand was the same to him, but it was not his own after all.

If I can make my own wand in the future, I must add a wrist strap or something to it... Maca, who was readjusting the bloodline transformation formula in the Room of Requirement, couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

Recently, he and Aragog made another attempt. Although the transformation was still unsuccessful in the end, there was a major breakthrough in the collection of experimental data.

Here, success is bound to be in sight.

But just when Maca finished adjusting the formula and was going to the auditorium to solve the problem of dinner, Luna suddenly walked by his side.

Hey, do you know? Halloween is coming soon. Luna tilted her head and said in a daze.

Huh? Maca raised his head and said, Oh, yes... Hogsmeade.

That's right, do you want to go shopping together? Luna asked.

Maca thought for a while, then nodded in response.

To be honest, Hogsmeade is not safe right now, and it would be better if he followed him...even if he has lost accurate judgment on his own strength now.

Luna looked very happy, and she smiled slightly to show that she was very interested in this outing, which made Maka shake her head.

There is still more than half a month until Halloween!

After dinner, Maca said goodbye to Luna, and went straight to Snape's office.

Boom boom

Professor, it's me, Maca McClain.

Come in.

When Snape's cold response came from the office, Maca reached out and opened the office door.

Professor, this is the month.

Maca placed a potion bottle on Snape's desk and said softly.

This is the second bottle of Wolfsbane potion he has brewed. In terms of the speed of preparation, it is obviously faster than last month.

...Yeah. Snape checked, then nodded.

Then I'll go out first. Maca leaned over politely, turned around to leave the office, but was stopped by Snape.

I still have something to do, you go and take it to Lupin. Snape put the wolfbane potion on the table again, and said calmly.

Although he looked calm, his eyes seemed to be filled with impatience. It was obvious that he didn't want to see Lu Ping, an old classmate.

Maca paused, looked back at the potion bottle on the table, and picked it up again.

Okay, professor. He said calmly, If possible, I will send it directly every month from now on...

Well, let's do it. Snape immediately agreed.

Then, good night, Professor. Maca saluted again, and then left with the wolfsbane potion.

In the office, Snape looked at the closed door with a thoughtful expression.

Occlumency, Snape whispered to himself after a while.
