Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 65: Continuous [Leg Locking Curse]

Curiosity killed the cat.

This was the first proverb Moon learned after arriving at Hogwarts.

He had only heard professors use this sentence to dissuade students before. After all, young wizards were always curious about new magic.

Of course, these curious little wizards also include Moon, especially after four years of being called a "half-baked psychic."

But today, after opening the wooden door of the Herbal Club, Moon truly understood the true power of this sentence.

[Christmas Cactus Club] is on the right side of the auditorium on the first floor, next to a long stone staircase.

The stairs lead up to the teaching area on the second floor, and down to the Hufflepuff common room and potions classroom.

When Moon walked out of the door, Quirrell had already run into the auditorium, and the person following him turned and walked towards the second floor.

It was the first time Moon had seen someone leave such a long shadow on the stairs.

Moon was already curious about who could tolerate the smell of garlic on Quirrell, and now he wanted to see whose long shadow was on the ground.

Enduring the pungent smell of garlic, Moon quietly walked to the stairs.

boom!
The first thing Moon saw was a huge, shoeless foot stepping on the stairs.

Further up is a pair of thick and strong calves.

Then I saw a brown bark skirt, dark skin, and finally a head the size of a cocoa bean.

【giant? 】

Watching the creature, about twelve feet tall, walking step by step towards the second floor, a name from the textbook popped into Moon's mind.

The giant's strides were very large, and each of his steps was three times longer than that of an ordinary person. He could climb more than a dozen stairs in just two steps.

Moon knew that this must be an enemy or a dangerous person, because no one would hold such a thick wooden stick in school.

He covered his mouth and nose tightly, and then prepared to slowly retreat back to the club's classroom.

One step. Two steps
Moon now felt a little regretful. He had just walked a long distance in order to see the other person clearly.

The air was still thick with the smell of garlic, and a stench of giants came down the stairs.

A sneeze!

Moon made sure to minimize the sound of his sneezes, and he even covered his mouth and nose, but the big guy still heard it.

The long ears on the small head moved twice, and then the giant turned his head and saw Moon at the bottom of the stairs.

At the same time, Moon, who had not yet retreated to a safe place, also saw the giant's ugly face.

There was a look of stupidity and cruelty in the small eyes, thick white snot hung from the big and ugly nose, and jagged fangs grew in the thick, protruding lips.

After seeing Moon, the giant opened his mouth excitedly as if he had found prey.

Then it strode downstairs, and the black stick shadow whizzed down at the same time.

At this moment, Moon performed the movements he had practiced thousands of times in Xilin.

[Leg Lock Curse]

Nine shots in a row!

Boom!
The shadow of the stick came down directly in front of Moon, less than an inch from his nose.

The giant fell down the stairs because of the curse.

At this time, Moon could hear the noise of students in the auditorium, the shouts of the class leader, and a female voice coming down from the second floor.

"Moon~"

It took Hermione several screams for Moon to come out of his state of panic.

The big stick missed his head by a hair's breadth.

Moon finally recovered and many people ran out of the auditorium.

McGonagall was walking in front, but when she turned the corner and saw Moon and Hermione, her face immediately turned cold.

"What are you doing here!"

Just as Mag said this, she saw something lying on the ground. She immediately turned her head to look at the students who were about to catch up.

"Everyone go back to the auditorium, no one is allowed to come out!"

"And you two, come here quickly and hide behind me."

Hearing this, Hermione pulled Moon, who had just reacted, and quickly ran behind McGonagall.

"Okay, don't be afraid!"

The students returned to the auditorium, confused, while the professors came out one by one. "What happened? Minerva."

Dumbledore was walking in front of all the professors. When he saw the troll, his brows unconsciously frowned.

"I don't know. As soon as I came out, I saw the troll lying on the ground."

McGonagall's arms were still outstretched, protecting Moon and Hermione as they moved backwards.

Noticing that Principal Whitebeard was looking at him, Moon hurriedly explained.

"I don't know either. I just walked out of the club classroom and saw the giant walking upstairs. It wanted to hit me, so I cast the Leg Locking Curse on it."

Moon's words were a little incoherent, but his explanation was clear enough.

"I can prove, Headmaster, that Mr. Scarlett is the one who looks after the herbs at my club."

Sprout came out, and after he finished speaking, he came to Moon and patted him on the shoulder gently.

Flitwick also walked out of the crowd at this time, took his wand to the troll's legs and examined them carefully.

"Strange, the troll's hide is supposed to be very thick, so the [Leg Locking Curse] shouldn't be able to harm it at all."

"What's the problem, Filius?"

Dumbledore also came forward to check on the troll's condition.

"It was the Leg-Lock Curse, that's right. I estimate that at least five spells hit the troll. Otherwise, it would be impossible for this big guy to fall unconscious down the stairs."

Upon hearing this, Dumbledore also looked at the troll's legs.

At this time, the effect of Moon's spell was very small, and the giant monster's skin had great magic resistance.

So as soon as Professor Flitwick finished speaking, the troll showed signs of activity again.

[fainted to the ground]

【Total Petrochemicals】

[Legs stand stiff and dead]

Dumbledore was the first to notice the troll's movements and cast a Sleeping Spell.

Immediately afterwards, Flitwick also cast the [Petrification Spell].

At the same time, Moon held the wand tightly and cast another [Leg Locking Curse] on the troll.

"Oh!"

Mag and Sprout were both startled by Moon's sudden action.

In their opinion, with Dumbledore around, there was no need to take action at all.

But Moon didn't have such an idea, and he was still in a highly nervous state.

Seeing that the giant monster showed signs of movement, he instantly entered the casting state.

"I told you he has the talent to be a duelist!"

After a moment of surprise, Professor Flitwick gave Moon an appreciative smile.

However, the other professors were not like Flitwick. They all stared at Moon closely, and even Hermione beside him showed a curious look.

Moon unconsciously blamed his right hand holding the staff.

This is how he was trained by Zalan in Xilin. As long as the small animals he caught moved, Moon's [Leg Lock Curse] would hit them directly.

Later, these little animals learned their lesson and began to play dead to avoid being cursed.

But later Zalan ate all the little animals and then replaced them with another batch.

【Can’t you just pretend to be dead? 】

Moon cursed the giant monster lying on the ground in his heart.

"Well, Minerva, the students have been waiting in the Great Hall for a long time. The dinner will go on as usual. You can all go in and enjoy the food together."

Dumbledore's expression regained its composure, and he looked at his deputy.

"What about the giant monster? We can't just leave it here."

"Don't worry, Filius, I need you to stay here until Severus returns and hand the troll over to him."

"At your service, Headmaster."

Professor Flitwick bowed slightly towards Dumbledore.

"As for you, Mr. Scarlett, I think it necessary for us to have a talk."
