The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

He began to disparage Scott with contempt, calling him nothing more than a good-for-nothing with a reputation.

“Williamson.”

Scott said his name.

“I remember he was an Auror.”

This young Auror had also visited the Troop family home in Hastings with Kingsley.

For some reason, his magical energy fluctuations have completely changed, as if he were a different person.

“I understand,” Ms. Burns said. “I have already informed Rufus Scrinker, the Auror’s chief of staff, in secret.”

"Please let me help too," Scott offered.

Ms. Burns nodded.

"I'll transfer the surveillance footage to your [Magic Phone] right away."

Scott began the operation.

At the same time, he asked Milton, "Milton, are you coming with me, or going back to Hogwarts by yourself?"

"Please let me go with you!" Milton pleaded. "I can stay in the alternate dimension!"

Scott nodded, freeing one hand to draw an illusory portal of light.

Milton went inside by himself.

In the tenth courtroom, Medea reached out to stop Williamson from making disparaging remarks about Scott.

She looked at Milton, who was tied to the dock and looked terrified, with some suspicion.

“Tell me the details of how you captured him, Williamson.”

Scott knew he had to hurry, or Medea might see through the deception of "Milton."

There was no doubt that he could not immediately reach the trial room using Apparition.

The only place inside the Ministry of Magic that can be reached by Apparition is the entrance hall.

But for Scott, who had already mastered spatial magic, this was not a significant limitation.

He took a black feather from his pocket and activated it with magic.

The next second, he silently arrived at the corridor outside the tenth trial chamber, bent down and picked up another identical black feather.

This feather was deliberately dropped by Milton.

Scott drew his wand, and the light of the spell flickered silently. His figure instantly blended into the surrounding environment, and even the sounds around him disappeared.

He walked forward while looking at the image on the [magic mirror] in his hand.

After listening to Williamson's story, Medea pursed her lips tightly.

"idiot!"

A green-robed man beside Medea berated Williamson.

"Scott Trollope did it on purpose! He deliberately let you kidnap Milton Grevis!"

"Quick!" Another man in green robes strode forward. "This kid might have something on him..."

He immediately began searching Milton's body.

At this moment, Scott was already standing outside the Tenth Trial Chamber, gently pressing the door with his wand.

White runes appeared on the gate, forming a tree-like pattern.

"no need!"

Medea walked up to Milton, took off the black lace glove on one hand, and gently pinched his face with two fingers.

"fake."

"We've been discovered."

Milton, who was tied to the dock, grinned.

His mouth stretched wider and wider, until the corners of his mouth instantly reached behind his ears.

"What's this!"

Apart from Medea, everyone else was startled by Milton's terrifying expression.

“I am… Milton Grevis…”

Milton's tone shifted from genuine to mechanical.

At the same time, the color of his entire body began to change, starting with his hair, gradually turning into a reflective bright silver.

"An alchemical doll?"

Medea laughed instead.

"Interesting. As expected of Scott, you've improved again."

"hey-hey……"

Milton's body flowed from the dock to the ground like mercury, transforming into a human shape resembling a plastic mannequin in a shopping mall window.

"How could this be..."

Williamson stared blankly at the scene, clearly deeply shocked.

"Let's go, Ms. Slytherin."

A man in a green robe enlarged the small fireplace again and urged Medea to leave.

"Perhaps we are already surrounded!"

"We can't leave."

Medea said calmly.

"If I'm not mistaken, Scott has turned this place into another dimension."

"How is that possible!"

The man in the green robe rushed into the fireplace to try, only to find that he was indeed unable to leave.

"It's alright."

The other person in green robes who hadn't spoken before spoke up; it was a woman's voice.

"Lady Slytherin did not come in person."

"But……"

"No buts!"

The woman's voice said sternly.

"The crimes we committed are not serious, so it doesn't matter if we get caught!"

No one else spoke.

“Scott,” Medea said, “I know you can hear me. What, are you afraid to meet me?”

Good afternoon, Medea.

Scott's figure materialized out of thin air, right next to the silver doll.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"You bastard..."

Williamson glared angrily at Scott.

"How dare you fool me!"

Scott ignored him and said to Medea, "The Ministry of Magic's Inquiry Room, you sure know how to pick a place."

Medea smiled and said, "Isn't this interesting?"

Ignored, Williamson shouted again, "Honorable Lady Slytherin, please allow me to fight for you! I will defeat Scott Trollope!"

Scott still didn't glance at him.

He said to Medea, "Is this the one you rely on? This makes me question your judgment."

"damn it!"

Before Medea could speak, Williamson made his move.

Without chanting a spell, he waved his wand, and a crimson beam of light instantly pierced through Scott's body.

"Oh, beautiful silent spell."

Scott, who remained unharmed after being penetrated, nodded calmly in his assessment.

"I see. So, although you're not very bright, you have a real talent for casting spells?"

"phantom?"

Williamson was stunned.

"Step back, Williamson!"

The stern female voice rebuked.

Williamson reluctantly lowered his head and took a few steps back.

"Williamson is indeed very talented."

Medea's expression did not change because of what had just happened; instead, she remained calm and smiled.

“But he’s nothing compared to you, Scott.”

Scott laughed and said, "I think there are very few people who can compare to me."

“That makes sense,” Medea nodded in agreement.

"Was Milton's grandfather difficult to deal with?" Scott asked directly, "so that you had no choice but to kidnap Milton?"

Medea didn't hide anything, but said, "That gentleman spent his whole life building his house into an impregnable magical fortress, and he never went out."

Scott then asked, "Was it hidden using the 'Loyalty Charm'?"
