Chapter 2459 His Name Is Jason
"Walk!"
At the moment when the wall in the corner was knocked down and the raised dust obscured the sight, Tia still recognized the owner of the voice at once—it was the one who rescued herself from the dark dungeon and replaced her halfway. He himself blocked the strange boy who blocked the strong enemy.
She didn't hesitate anymore, because she knew that it would be meaningless for her to stay here, but would only get in the way. So after regaining her senses, she got up from the ground and turned around and ran, heading straight for the gate of the monastery—even because she was so focused on running away, she didn't even notice Brooks who was chasing behind her .
It wasn't until a strong force pulled her from behind that she realized that Brooks had been by her side since just now.
"This way!"
Brooks pointed to the window not far away, and pulled her to run there.
"I'll help you climb out, it's faster."
Regardless of whether No-Majs accounted for the majority or not, the monastery was full of enemies after all, and the longer they stayed inside, the more dangerous they would be. Obviously, Brooks was right.
"Clang--"
I saw Brooks dragging a wooden frame next to the flower pot, and pushing hard towards the colorful mosaic window, the window glass shattered. Then he turned his back against the wall under the window, knelt and half-kneeled to signal Tia to climb out of the window by stepping on him.
"and you……"
"It's okay, I can turn over by myself, quick!"
Before anyone caught up, Tia hesitated for a moment before hearing Brooks urging her again. She paused, and finally gritted her teeth, followed the opponent's knees and shoulders to the window sill, and then jumped towards the pitch-black world outside.
After she rolled a few times on the soft grass outside the window and stopped, propped up her upper body and raised her head to look at the window again, what she saw was Brooks who had clearly climbed onto the window sill, as if being violently dragged from inside by someone. It seemed as if he had slapped it, and then disappeared from the window again.
In the next moment, another familiar figure replaced Brooks' position and appeared in Tia's field of vision.
It was the dark wizard who dragged her to the study and was stunned by that boy not long ago! He woke up—not only woke up, but also caught up!
"Well," the man standing by the window shook his head while holding his forehead, as if he was still a little dizzy.
"Damn...Look, what kind of trouble have you caused the master? There is a strange boy over there...a group of noisy flies sneaked in outside, it's really...annoying!"
As he said this, he clenched his fist and beat his head vigorously, as if doing so would make him more awake.
Seeing the other person's appearance, Tia immediately wanted to take this opportunity to turn around and run away, but before she could run a few more steps when she just got up, she heard the wind behind her.
"Boom!"
Several flames flew out at a high speed from a certain window on the side of the monastery, and one of them accurately hit the small figure running forward. In the next second, the figure was blown away by the impact, brushed against the not too high wooden railing, and finally fell into the cold river outside with a "plop".
The wizard at the window glanced at the river not far away, then looked back into the room, then turned around and went back.
...
"When I woke up, I found that I was already in the ward of the magic medical center. An Auror was guarding the bedside and asked me about the situation. And until I recovered and was discharged, I was taken to the Capitol building I didn't see Brooks again until I checked the notes - he looked fine, just tired, and some say he was rescued by the Aurors a few more days later."
"But...it doesn't matter anymore."
When Tia said this, she looked at her brother opposite and shook her head, with a thoughtful look on her face. But more, but still fear.
"Then I was let out of the Capitol first, and I was led out of the Auror office by a witch, and I said I wanted to go to the bathroom... and then, Severus, you guessed it, I was in the corridor in front of the bathroom door Who did you see?"
Opposite, Severus frowned, but didn't speak, just raised his chin towards Tia, signaling her to speak quickly.
Tia pursed her dry lips from talking too much, swallowed and said softly:
"It's still that dark wizard——I'm absolutely right! Although he changed into a neat suit, I can remember that face and that look for a lifetime! But...but...just when I wanted to turn my head and When the witch from the Magic Congress next to me was speaking, the witch pressed my shoulders, and looked at me with a terrifying gaze along with the man on the other end... At that moment, I knew that the other party She must know what I'm going to say, she doesn't want me to speak!"
At this point, Tia, who was immersed in that memory, couldn't help being silent for a few seconds, and finally said:
"A few years later, when I was looking through a list of Ilvermorny's school magazine honorees, I learned by accident that the man's name was 'Jason'. And his last name...was 'Stuart', like John and Brooks. '."
"Tsk."
Severus, who had been hearing this quietly all this time, finally couldn't help but smacked the tip of his tongue again, and whispered to himself:
"Is there really a problem with that stone-carved family?"
After listening to Tia tell so much about the experience of the big case in the American magic world, why didn't he understand? Such an incident involving the suspected Obscure and the captive cultivation of Obscure is probably the conflict about Greenwald in the American Legion that was resolved by Maca?
Even if Severus himself didn't get involved at that time, how could he not know such a big thing?
But what he didn't expect was that this trouble, which should have been solved ten years ago, was delayed for such a long time for no reason. And among them, it is very likely that the Stewart family who held high the banner of "Wizards and No-Majs Treat Equally" in the American wizarding world is causing trouble!
"So that means," he murmured while thinking, "Those guys came here this time, probably with malicious intentions."
Before the words were finished, Severus stood up suddenly with the handrail, and even walked towards the door without hesitation.
"You stay here and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
"Hey, wait!"
Tia got up hurriedly, and immediately chased two steps towards the door, but was stopped by her brother who turned her head and stared at her again.
"I said, you wait here, didn't you hear me?" Severus scolded impatiently.
