Chapter 931 Frequent Vicious Attacks

"Well done, Ron. It seems that you have mastered silent casting. However, I need to remind you that when using this magical technique, it usually weakens the power of the wizard's spell, so in a real duel Only unexpected use can achieve the best results..."

On Friday, in the Great Hall of Hogwarts, Ivan looked at Ron, who had just won a consecutive victory and was a little overjoyed, and reminded him.

"Okay, I'll pay attention." Ron said nonchalantly. He was immersed in the joy of defeating his opponent and being in the limelight, so he asked eagerly. "Who is my next opponent?"

"Next, go and spar with Malfoy." Ivan turned his head and looked to the other side. At this time, on the duel stage, Malfoy was accidentally hit by the disarming spell from Harry on the opposite side. The whole person was in a state of embarrassment. He rolled around on the ground twice, his face turned frighteningly dark...

Ivan was not surprised by the outcome of this duel. Harry had always been very talented in defense, otherwise he would not have been able to escape death at the hands of Voldemort several times.

In comparison, although Malfoy mastered many advanced black magic spells, he had a serious lack of combat experience, and it was normal for him to be beaten.

"Well done, Harry, now it's my turn to torture him!" Ron whistled excitedly when he saw Malfoy's embarrassed appearance, and took Harry's place on the fighting stage.

"You'll know you picked the wrong opponent, Weasley!" Malfoy stared at Ron fiercely and said angrily.

"Then just give it a try!" Ron, who had won two games in a row, was full of confidence, while Malfoy on the other side had been holding back his breath after being defeated by Harry and became much more cautious. I blessed myself with several protective spells.

Such caution was regarded as a sign of cowardice by Ron, and he was ridiculed.

But Ron quickly paid the price for his complacency - he was hit by a spell from Malfoy less than half a minute into the battle, and he tap danced for several minutes under the attention of a group of young wizards...

The afternoon passed quickly. When it was past ten past five o'clock, Ivan announced that today's duel class was over. The final victorious house was Gryffindor. Among them, Hermione, the most outstanding one, defeated several seven-year-olds in a row. The graduates of this year have become the well-deserved strongest.

The little wizards present were all a bit unsatisfied, but Ron was still brooding over the failure just now, thinking that he lost because he was too careless, and wanted to find another opponent for another fight.

After Ivan waited for the students in the auditorium to disperse, he looked at the little witch aside and said with a smile. "Congratulations, you won this duel class, Hermione."

"That's all thanks to Professor for your good teaching..." Hermione responded teasingly.

However, Ivan said it like a stick. "Well, that's right. Have you figured out how to thank me?"

Hermione didn't expect that Ivan would suddenly say this, and she was stunned. Then she looked around sheepishly, and seeing that no one was looking here, she stepped up and kissed Ivan on the cheek.

Just this... just this... just this? Ivan looked disappointed.

Hermione glared at Ivan with dissatisfaction, and even kissed Ivan, what else did she want to do...

The two made a fuss in the auditorium for a while before returning to the lounge together.

"Another Muggle has been attacked. What's going on in the wizarding world now?" Hermione sighed as she flipped through the latest issue of the Daily Prophet.

Ivan curiously took a look at the newspaper. On the front page was a horrifying incident. A crazy wizard rushed to the streets of Paris for some reason and released explosives in the most crowded places. Curse, dozens of Muggles were killed on the spot.

Judging from the photos on the page, the scenes at the scene were simply too horrific to look at.

"Are there many such things recently?" Ivan frowned, realizing the seriousness of the matter.

"In total, this is the ninth vicious incident discovered this month, but the incidents all occurred in France and Northern Europe." Hermione responded hesitantly.

"It's France again..." Ivan murmured to himself, so it seems that this matter is probably related to Grindelwald.

It’s just that Ivan can’t think of the meaning of what the other party does. Is it because he wants to make the wizard’s existence public?

If this is the case, these are not the only people who were sent to Muggle lands to cause riots...

Nine vicious incidents in January were within the scope of what the Ministry of Magic could handle.

Just as Ivan was thinking about it, the door to the lounge was suddenly pushed open hard. Ivan, who was interrupted from his thoughts, looked over slightly unhappily. In came Connor, the Executive Director of North America whom he had not seen for a long time. Well, there are a few nervous Aurors following behind.

The little wizards in the lounge looked curiously at the group of uninvited guests who suddenly broke into the lounge. Conor didn't have time to explain too much. He pressed the brim of his hat, walked up to Ivan, and spoke in a low voice. .

"Mr. Hals, is it convenient for us to talk alone now? I have very important news about that person..."

At this point, Conor looked at Hermione beside him indifferently, obviously not wanting others to hear the content of their conversation.

"Of course it's no problem!" Ivan nodded, and after comforting Hermione for a few words, he took Conor to his office.

Ivan waved his wand, closed the door, and set a spell to block the sound before speaking. "You can say it now, Director Conall!"

"You should have learned about the attacks in France over the past month or so, right? Sir Hals?" Conor asked solemnly.

"Ah... yes, I read the newspaper, there were nine vicious incidents!" Ivan touched his nose and said with a guilty conscience.

Previously, he had considered that North America and England would report important matters to him, so Ivan didn't pay much attention to what major events were happening in the magic world these days.

"That was just what was reported. To be precise, it was thirteen targeted attacks!" Conor corrected. "Not only that, we also received news that Grindelwald is arresting those potion masters. Several people have disappeared these days, including your British potion master, Horace Slughorn."

"Then do you understand why he wanted to arrest these people?" Ivan asked solemnly,

"We don't know yet. If the timing hadn't been too coincidental, we might not even be sure it was Grindelwald." Conor sighed helplessly.

The International Confederation of Wizards sent many informants to France, but Grindelwald was too difficult to deal with and actually instigated the rebellion of two Aurors. This made it impossible for many of their operations to be carried out and they also lost a lot of manpower. .
