The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

With a roar that resounded through the sky, the red dragon stretched its neck and, with no way to avoid it, bit the feathered serpent that was swooping down.

As the red dragon stretched its neck, Scott also saw the golden chains wrapped around its neck.

Before we knew it, the rain had stopped.

boom……

Black flames suddenly erupted.

The feathered serpent held in the red dragon's mouth transformed into a fiercely burning, pitch-black flame.

"puff."

The red dragon shook its head and spat out the feathered serpent along with the black flames from its mouth.

The feathered serpent's massive body crashed into the thorny thicket, rolled a few times, and the leaping black flames instantly burned the moon vines beneath it and around it to ashes.

Once the flames gathered, the feathered serpent, now completely unharmed, reappeared.

“Is it just my imagination?” Scott said softly. “The feathered serpent seems to have shrunk.”

Savannah said, "It's not an illusion, it is indeed a bit smaller."

"Roar……"

In the sky, the red dragon stretched its neck once more and let out a deafening roar towards the ground.

Its roar transformed into visible sound waves and wind pressure.

All the moon vines in the entire thorn forest collapsed to the ground under the force of the sound waves and wind pressure.

Not only that, even the massive frost giants and feathered serpents could barely stand.

Not to mention Scott and Savannah.

Both of them immediately crouched down, covered their ears, and could barely open their eyes.

Fortunately, this enormous red dragon, which blots out the sky, is chained to the sky above Avalon by golden chains, so even if it stretches its neck desperately, it cannot directly attack targets on the ground.

Upon realizing this, Scott's previously rapid heartbeat subsided.

Since you can't reach it, just ignore it for now.

Under his control, the Frost Giants received new orders.

Once the dragon roars ceased, they sprang into action again, swarming and attacking the black feathered serpent controlled by Slytherin.

"hiss……"

The feathered serpent once again let out a cry that could shake the very soul.

Because of the presence of the red dragon, it could no longer escape into the sky, so it flapped its wings and flew low towards the swamp outside the thorny thicket.

The frost giants worked together like hunters, closely following the feathered serpent and occasionally attacking its wings with thrown spears in an attempt to slow its flight.

"Roar……"

With a sudden tremor, the red dragon roared angrily once again from the sky.

Scott and Savannah hid behind the magic barrier, watching as the frost giant and the feathered serpent, who had just been in a chase, were simultaneously forced to stop in place by the dragon's roar, their bodies swaying precariously.

Scott looked up at the sky.

Golden flames seemed to have ignited in those bright golden dragon eyes.

Clearly, the red dragon was completely enraged.

Two long white plumes of smoke shot out from its nostrils, drifting into the air and turning into clouds.

The next second, it opened its mouth again and spewed out golden dragon breath.

The brilliant gold instantly obscured the entire sky.

Even from a distance, Scott could feel the scorching heat.

Scott quickly grabbed Savannah's hand, and the shimmering magic runes beneath their feet immediately unfolded, causing the two of them, along with the magic barrier enveloping them, to sink into the ground.

The next moment, both of them felt the scorching heat, as if they were in a sauna on a hot summer day.

They dared not stop for a moment, desperately trying to escape underground.

Within a pitch-black magical barrier, Scott looked up and even saw several streams of magma flowing like veins of blood.

"too frightening!"

Savanna patted her chest, still shaken.

Scott also felt a sudden loss of strength.

"How could there be such a terrifying dragon?"

Compared to this red dragon, the fire dragons in the magical world today are nothing more than fire-breathing lizards, utterly incomparable.

"I have no idea……"

Savanna shook her head somewhat blankly.

"I only know a few vague legends and don't know any detailed information about this red dragon."

Scott only stopped the running magic circuit below when he could no longer feel the heat.

"Rimbaud..."

He plopped down on the ground and waved his wand, trying to summon Rimbaud.

But the summoning did not elicit a response.

"It seems it couldn't escape the reach of the dragon's flames..."

Scott muttered to himself.

At this moment, his feelings were incredibly complex.

Although Rimbaud was merely a product of his Transfiguration, his long-term companionship had blurred the boundaries of their relationship.

Unlike the other four "summoned beasts," Rimbaud is not a combat tool. Scott has come to regard him as his favorite pet and also as a friend.

But now, he has lost this friend.

Scott involuntarily recalled the bits and pieces of the past that Rimbaud had been involved in, while gripping his wand tightly.

Even if he were to use Transfiguration to create another raven that looked exactly like Rimbaud, and even had Rimbaud's memories, it would still not be Rimbaud.

That's why he didn't upgrade Rimbaud when he used high-level magic materials to upgrade the four "summoned beasts".

He simply altered their magical contract, allowing him and Rimbaud to summon each other.

"Scott..."

Savannah reached out and grasped Scott's wrist.

"Are you ok?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Scott shook his head, barely managing to pull himself together.

There's no time to remember Rimbaud now.

He took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and stood up again.

Just then, green light illuminated the surroundings.

Savannah held a small, glowing green seedling in her hands.

She explained to Scott, "With it, we don't have to worry about not having air to breathe underground."

Scott nodded.

"Let's go back to the ground and take a look."

As he spoke, he raised his wand forward.

The soil and rock layers outside the magic barrier changed rapidly.

The excess soil tumbled away, and the head of a giant Komodo dragon emerged from the rock strata.

It opened its enormous mouth, took the spherical magic barrier that enveloped Scott and Savannah into its mouth, and swallowed it whole.

Inside the giant lizard, Scott sat cross-legged and took out the [Magic Mirror].

He tapped the mirror, and the image that the monitor lizard saw immediately appeared in the mirror.

The monitor lizard swam freely through the mud and rock layers, avoiding several newly formed streams of hot, red lava, and quickly poked its head out of the ground.

The once lush thorn forest has vanished, replaced by a landscape of black scorched earth, with numerous red streams of lava forming its tributaries.

The stark contrast between black and red creates a hellish scene.

"Just one strike..."

"Sawana said in a trembling voice."

Scott's tone was also somewhat heavy, "Even 'Gungnir' has been destroyed by dragon breath."

At this moment, the monitor lizard looked up at the sky.

The red dragon was still peering down, its head still raised.

Those bright golden dragon eyes, like the sun and moon hanging in the sky, were filled with cold violence and ferocity.

It had undoubtedly spotted the giant lizard poking its head out, but merely stared at it coldly without launching another dragon breath attack.

The giant lizard no longer looked up at the red dragon, but instead twisted its neck and looked around, trying to find Slytherin's whereabouts.

Savannah said, "Ymir..."

"Ymir will be fine."

Scott glanced at the ring on his left index finger, which was still intact.

"When faced with insurmountable danger, it can return on its own and await another summons."

"Ah."

Savannah nodded.

"really……"
