Hogwarts and the Holy Grail War

She could still remember that she accidentally touched something that her boss's wife had placed on the bedside table while she was working, and then she immediately fell into a strange state. Her body could not move at all, but her consciousness was still clear, and she could perceive everything outside through her five senses, but she could not make any response. To outsiders, it was no different from fainting.

Not long after, three people in brown windbreakers suddenly appeared in front of her and she was sent to this strange hospital. According to the doctors who claimed to be therapists, she was cursed and needed to start treatment immediately.

The initial treatment went smoothly, and she finally regained some mobility. However, before she was pushed out of the treatment room, her condition worsened again.

The eyes are completely blind, and the sense of smell and taste are also very limited. One can only perceive the outside world through hearing and touch.

After an unknown amount of time, she heard a familiar cry and faint scolding.

It should be Alanna. Without her support, how can she survive in Hogwarts with her submissive nature? If no one supports her, she will be bullied...

Not long after that, her condition worsened again, and all connections with the outside world were completely severed. She could not see, hear, smell, or taste. She could only think alone in the boundless darkness, while enduring excruciating pain.

After not working for so long, the boss should find someone else to replace me, right? If I lose all three jobs, my family will have no income in the future. How will Alanna live in the future...

I think it would cost a lot of money to stay in the hospital all the time, right? The savings I saved up on weekdays should be used on Alanna, and I can't waste it on myself...

Someone come and kill yourself. As long as you die, Alanna won't be implicated...

Gradually, her once active mind turned into a stagnant state, and she was almost the same as if she were dead.

Ariel had thought she would be trapped in this body forever, but now she had miraculously recovered. Although she was still a little weak, she could definitely feel that she had regained control of her body, the pain in her body had completely disappeared, and her five senses had completely returned to normal.

"Alanna!"

The first person she thought of was her sister. She must be very worried because she had been unconscious for so long.

Go find her!

Ariel didn't care about her weak body. She struggled to get up by supporting herself on the bed with her weak arms, but her body was immediately pressed back onto the bed by a force.

"You are still very weak. Don't move around in a hurry. Take care of your body first." Ethan held her shoulders and spoke softly to Ariel.

"Who... are you?" Ariel frowned and looked at the young face in front of her.

She was sure that she had never seen this young man before, but why did he appear by her bedside and seem so intimate with her?

He...could it be that he likes me? That's why he has been taking care of me here all this time...If he didn't like me, why would he be willing to take care of a girl like me who is not related to him?

Ariel was only a 20-year-old girl, after all. What girl didn't have spring in her heart? She was still in an absolutely weak state and hadn't recovered yet. She couldn't suppress her selfishness and put on her usual tough attitude.

So for the first time, her spring feelings, which had been suppressed for a long time because she had to take care of her sister, began to stir. Under the cover of the dim candlelight, she blushed as she secretly looked at Ethan in front of her, various thoughts flashing through her mind.

I have to say he is quite handsome, and he doesn't behave like those hypocrites she had met before who wanted to do something bad to her. He is 100% sincere to her.

She started working outside when she was in her teens to support her family of only two people, she and her sister. In the past ten years, she has seen all kinds of people and has some knowledge of people.

This person gave her a very gentle feeling, without any malice. It was similar to the power that had saved her from the darkness before, warm and comfortable, making her want to rely on him.

"Just a wizard passing by."

Ethan grinned at her: "He's not a big shot, you don't need to care about him."

"What's your name?"

Ariel asked, blinking.

"Ethan. Just Ethan."

"Ethan? Okay, I'll take note." Ariel nodded, "Then, Mr. Ethan. Why are you here? And how is the curse on me..."

"It just happens that our professions are related. It's not something to brag about. It looks like your condition has begun to improve, so I can rest assured."

"Oh..." Ariel nodded in a daze.

He cares about my condition and he cares about me!

"Then I'll call a therapist to give you a further examination. Just lie down on the bed and have a good rest." Ethan stood up from the bed and turned back to instruct:

"If anyone asks you how you got better, please don't say it was me. For some reason, I don't want others to know my ability. Let's keep this a secret between us. Is that okay, Miss Shannans?"

"I understand. I won't tell anyone about this." Ariel nodded obediently.

He is willing to tell me his secrets, he trusts me!

"Wait a moment!"

Ariel stopped Ethan who was about to leave and asked tentatively:

"Can I ask, Mr. Ethan, why are you helping me like this?"

"…I guess I was entrusted by someone."

Ethan lowered the bed curtains and looked back at Ariel.

If Alanna was mentioned directly, it would be hard to say whether Ariel would become so emotional that she would clamor to see her sister. Alanna didn't know what the situation was yet. If Ariel met her unconscious sister, the stimulation she received might be too great and her already poor physical condition would be made worse.

So I'd better keep it secret for now. It won't be too late to tell Alanna everything after she's sure everything is alright.

"But don't worry, this is not a threat. You don't have to feel like you owe me anything. I'm here to help you voluntarily, and I don't need you to do anything in return."

Ethan was a little afraid that Ariel would think too much like her sister, which would lead to unnecessary misunderstandings, so he added another sentence to dispel her doubts, then lifted the bed curtain and walked out.

"That's it..."

Ariel turned over in bed and hugged the quilt, with a silly smile on her face.

He was willing to risk having his secret discovered by others to cure me without asking for anything in return. He definitely likes me!

On the other side, as soon as Ethan walked out of the ward, he ran into two therapists who were pulling a trolley.

Alana was lying on the bed, still unconscious, but he looked much better than before.

"Madam... How is my girlfriend? Is she okay?" Ethan followed her to the bedside and asked.

The healers did not stop because of Ethan's question. The blonde female healer who was holding the bed in front of him answered patiently: "We didn't find any remnants of the curse on his body, so treatment is not necessary. It's just that his body still has some minor injuries due to the curse, and he needs to rest for a while."

"That's good." Ethan breathed a sigh of relief.

"How did you get out of Sen Bakar's ward? I remember it wasn't..." the brown-haired therapist at the end of the bed frowned, and the three of them turned into an empty double room next to Sen Bakar's ward.

"Ms. Shanansi from Sen Bakar's ward has woken up. I'm here to call the therapist to come over and take a look. Do you think it's okay to..."

"What? That Shanans actually..."

The blonde therapist was surprised and stopped the floating bed on the bed near the window. Then she relaxed her frown again.

"Okay, we'll go over and see your girlfriend after we settle her down."

"Sorry to bother you two."

Ethan watched Alana lying safely on the bed under the effect of the levitation spell. He silently tucked in the quilt for her, tidied up her messy hair, and went to the next ward with the two therapists.

"After being in a coma for nearly a year... this is unheard of..."

After examining Ariel's body, the two therapists looked at each other strangely, with disbelief written all over their faces.

The stubborn curse that had been helpless even if all the healers worked together disappeared without a trace. It could be described as a miracle!

To put it bluntly, they had already sentenced Ariel to death in their hearts. After all, they had seen patients with this kind of curse that could not be removed. The curse would slowly erode Ariel's body, and it was only a matter of time before she died because her body could not hold on.

But the curse on Ariel actually disappeared. This was the first time since St. Mungo's was founded in the 17th century, and it was already a textbook level.

How could this be a patient who had just recovered from a serious illness? This was material for a new field of research, a stepping stone for him to be promoted to a top-level therapist!

"Ms. Shanans, do you really not know how the curse on you disappeared?" The brown-haired therapist asked persistently:

"Even if it's just a vague feeling."

"I really don't know."

Ariel sat on the head of the bed, looking innocent:

"If I had to describe it, it was that I felt the curse that had been weighing on me like a mountain was slowly being lifted off me, and then I didn't know how, but I suddenly woke up."

The two therapists took notes quickly. Although Ariel's description was vague and had basically no professional reference value, it was the only and rare record.

"Then we won't bother you two anymore. After all, you just got back to your senses. You should go to bed early."

The two therapists put away their papers and pens and said goodbye. The blond therapist looked at Ethan deeply before leaving.

She always felt that this guy who suddenly appeared was a little strange. She had just examined Ariel tonight, and her condition had not improved. It was still as bad as before. But when this man appeared in St. Mungo's holding his girlfriend, the curse on Ariel suddenly disappeared.

He should know something, or maybe he cured Ariel using some method.

But how could such a young person... It must be an illusion.

"How was it? Did I act well?" Ariel watched the therapist close the door of the ward, and nervously approached Ethan and asked in a low voice, "I hope they didn't find any flaws in me, right?"

"No, it was a great performance." Ethan nodded with a smile.

"Thank you, Miss Shanans."

"Don't be so formal, just call me Ariel."

Ariel smiled shyly:

"You saved me. I don't know how to thank you. This is just a trivial thing, and it's what I should do."

"No need to thank me. I told you I was just going with the flow. It's no big deal." Ethan pushed Ariel back onto the bed and laid her down.

"You should rest tonight. You finally got rid of the disease, and the most important thing is to take good care of your body. I will come to see you tomorrow."

"Okay," Ariel blinked and looked at Ethan, "I'll wait for you to come tomorrow."

"Well, see you tomorrow."

Ethan left the ward and sat down on the bench in the corridor, rubbing his temples and taking a short rest.

Indeed, a lot of things happened today. Even though he was full of energy, after everything was over and he finally let go of his tense heart, he still inevitably felt tired.

An inexplicable sleepiness gradually came over Ethan, and he tilted his head back, leaning his head against the wall and fell asleep.

Chapter 239: Onole Orb Ring!

Ethan opened his eyes again and found himself in a familiar sea of ​​flowers. The bench he was sitting on was made of vines. In the distance, the Tower of Avalon suspended in the air was flickering with a faint glow.

"Oh, long time no see."

A large Fu Fu spirit was standing behind him, lowering its head and greeting him with a harmless smile.

The body moved before the brain did. Before Ethan could come to his senses, his left hand had already thrown a punch and hit Merlin's right eye socket steadily.

"Ughhhhh, my eyes!"

Merlin fell to the ground, covering his eyes and rolling in the sea of ​​flowers, screaming.

"Ah, sorry, it was an instinctive reaction." Ethan immediately stood up and rolled over from the rattan chair, and stretched out his hand to Merlin, "Are you okay? Let me help you up."

"Why is your instinctive reaction to hit me?" Merlin complained resentfully, reaching out his hand to Ethan.

At the moment when the two men held each other's hands, Ethan's left hand seemed to have a sudden illness again. He swung his arm in a smooth parabola and threw Merlin from the sea of ​​flowers in front of him to the ground on the other side of the rattan chair.

"Uh ah ah ah ah ah!"

Merlin covered his waist and turned over on the ground, wailing.

"Oh, sorry!" Ethan flipped over the wicker chair again, "I'll pull you up!"

"Don't come over here! I can get up by myself!"

Merlin didn't dare let Ethan get close to him anymore, he quickly got up from the ground, shook off the petals on his body, and said with resentment:

"You did this on purpose, didn't you? You must have done this on purpose, didn't you?"

"I swear to God, I really don't have that idea! It's all my disobedient right hand's fault!" Ethan patted the back of his left hand with his right hand, and his left hand, which had been raised upward, immediately drooped down listlessly.

"Look, I've already taught it a lesson for you!"

"Hehe." Merlin rolled his eyes and didn't comment.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Ethan shook his red left hand, recalling the feeling just now:

"Is this my dream, or have you dragged me into Avalon again?"

Well, that punch just now was not strong enough.

"To put it in a way you can understand, it's similar to a holographic projection. Your consciousness was pulled into Avalon through a dream, but your body was still sleeping on the bench in the corridor."
