The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

Medea laughed.

“This is hardly a struggle; I underestimated you, Scott.”

Scott nodded in agreement. "That's true, of course, you underestimate your father."

"No, you still don't quite understand my plan. I have never underestimated him."

Medea said seriously.

"I have always believed that when it comes to one's father, it is never too much to overestimate him."

"I see."

Scott understood.

"You weren't entirely confident in your plan to tamper with the magical ritual; taking over Aaron's body was your real backup plan."

You're wrong again.

Medea shook her head.

"The key is that you escaped the magical ritual. During that ritual, the three-way power struggle was at its most stable, and even Father could not escape it."

In other words, the plan to take over Aaron's body was just an extra layer of insurance.

Scott asked, "I'd like to know, when was the arrangement made for King Arthur's lance, and Mordred's resentment within it?"

"Do you think I had a chance to enter Avalon before this?"

Medea smiled meaningfully.

“If I could have gotten in, I wouldn’t have arranged for Zabini to marry Grevis.”

Is that so?

Scott glanced at Savannah.

"It seems we've been moving too slowly since we entered Avalon."

That's not wrong.

Medea then explained the origin of the knight's lance.

"The lance that King Arthur used to kill Mordred was once a collection of the Gaunt family. I nurtured the blood and resentment of Mordred within it for over a thousand years before finally putting it to use."

"That silent forest was something you set up ahead of us!"

Savannah certainly didn't have a good impression of Medea, who was destroying the forest.

"You placed the pollutants in the stream beforehand, driving away the other wild animals and contaminating the entire herd of unicorns!"

Medea nodded in acknowledgment, "I sacrificed several of my men to accomplish this."

Savannah said, "Destruction only takes a short time, but do you know how many years it will take for that forest to recover?"

Medea glanced at her expressionlessly without replying.

Clearly, she was not interested in the topic and did not bother to answer it.

Sensing the dramatic fluctuations in magical energy emanating from Savannah, Scott said, "Calm down."

He had already realized that, as a druid priestess, Savannah was best off not having too many emotional fluctuations, otherwise it would affect her own strength.

Upon hearing his reminder, Savannah quickly took a few deep breaths.

Scott breathed a sigh of relief when he sensed that her magical fluctuations had calmed down.

"I will keep her occupied for a while."

At this moment, Savannah walked directly in front of Scott.

"Take care of her in one go!"

This is to buy time for his "Gungnir".

Scott had no objection.

"Yuktrashir!"

He cast the spell first, but the target was neither himself nor Savannah.

It was three people, including Medea.

This was to prevent Medea from deliberately destroying the "Eye of the Thousand Miles".

Such a magical device must have an extremely sophisticated structure.

Medea had already broken through its built-in magical protection, so now only a small amount of damage was needed to render the entire device unusable.

In short, Scott made a sudden move, and in the blink of an eye, the three of them were already in an independent alternate dimension, and a relatively far distance had been created between them.

At the same time, Savannah had already raised the long wooden staff in her hand.

Bathed in green light, a small forest rose from the ground.

That wasn't all. After the trees grew, they sprouted rough features under the green light and began to move somewhat clumsily.

Savannah said to Scott, who was also casting a spell, "With these tree spirits around, we can hold out for a while."

These tree spirits are similar to the "Oak Guardians" that Scott once created using Transfiguration.

The difference is that the "Oak Guardians" were only altered in appearance by shapeshifting and then manipulated by Scott, while these tree spirits were truly transformed in life form under Savannah's spells.

However, unlike Savannah's optimism, Scott didn't think these tree spirits could hold off Medea for long.

After all, they are still trees at their core, and they are clumsy.

Sure enough, a fire broke out in the forest the next moment. Medea had broken through the defenses at an extremely fast speed and raised her hand to cast a Killing Curse at Scott.

Clearly, she also knew that the "Gungnir" that Scott was currently developing was the biggest threat to her.

Scott saw the red light flashing in her left hand and knew she was holding a one-time use magic stone.

"No need to hide!"

As the green lightning of the Killing Curse struck, Savannah said something to Scott and then stepped forward to meet it.

She slammed her long wooden staff on the ground, and the surrounding flowers, plants, and trees all seemed to change their life forms as if they were tree spirits, actively rushing towards the green lightning.

However, with the blessing of the one-time use magic stone, Medea controlled the Killing Curse with great ease, and the green lightning kept changing direction, avoiding the plant life's attempts to harm her.

Then, the green lightning bolt shot high into the sky and then swooped down towards where Scott was.

Savanna gave a soft shout, and green light formed fluorescent dots that sprinkled down. The plant life changed its form again, growing wings made of green leaves.

They separated into different positions, one above, one below, one to the left and one to the right, surrounding Scott and forming a very tight protective barrier.

Seeing that the Killing Curse was not working, Medea canceled the spell and waved her wand to cast the Fiendfyre spell instead.

With the help of a one-time use magic stone, she was also very adept at controlling Fiendfire.

Under her control, the Fiery Blaze merged with the fire that had previously ignited in the forest, forming a variety of fiery beasts that attacked Savannah and Scott.

Now, the plant life controlled by Savannah seemed to have encountered its natural enemy, and they all turned to ashes in the fierce flames.

Savannah was at a loss for a moment and could only keep creating plants to consume the Fiery Blaze.

"There has been enough time."

At that moment, Scott was surrounded by a dazzling light.

A spear shaped like a tree branch sliced ​​through the air.

Without a trace, without warning, the spear vanished without a trace in an instant.

In an instant, all the ferocious beasts that had transformed from the raging fire lost their complete forms and turned back into chaotic flames.

Ahead, Medea's body was clearly unharmed, and there was no sign of Gungnir's spear, yet cracks suddenly appeared.

Scott and Savannah turned around at the same time.

Another Medea, whose heart had been pierced by "Gangnir," rose from the earth behind them.

Savannah said with lingering fear, "If you had been just a little bit slower..."

“No,” Scott said calmly. “I created this alternate dimension, and the entire space is under my control.”

He knew that Medea's true form was attacking from behind, and if he didn't have time to cast "Gungnir," he would decisively interrupt the spell and choose other means to deal with it.

"In the end, you still won."

Medea did not die immediately.

Her expression was very calm, without anger or resentment.

"That's fine too."

She even smiled, a very relaxed smile.

"After a thousand years, I no longer know whether my actions were driven by ambition and obsession, or simply by habit."

Scott looked at her calmly without saying a word.

Medea did not say anything more.

The next moment, cracking sounds rang out simultaneously in front of and behind Scott.

Medea's skin shattered and fell away, revealing half of Aaron's face.

She finally opened her mouth and uttered a coordinate system.

"The results of my life's research are stored there, so I'll give them to you..."

After saying that, as the porcelain shards fell to the ground, revealing Aaron's body inside, he collapsed onto the porcelain shards.

Scott waved his wand, causing Aaron's corpse to fly over and hover beside him.

By this time, the chaotic flames had already surrounded them.

"Let's go."

He reached out and grasped Savannah's wrist with one hand and Aaron's shoulder with the other.

In a flash, he returned to the tower with the bodies of Savannah and Aaron.

Savanna glanced at the activating [Eye of a Thousand Miles] and walked to Aaron's corpse.

Scott waved his wand, causing the Gungnir spear to disappear.
