Chapter 45.2- Doom Days
Added 2025-07-17 05:53:00 +0000 UTCIf only that was the end of it, I thought, as I was harassed by a flock of birds that seemed to appear out of nowhere and begin pecking at me. A disillusionment charm on the birds themselves until they were in range? Fleur! I twisted my wand, setting the birds on fire with one blow and then twisted my wand around my head, casting the wide-area hominem revelio. Fleur’s glowing hand was mere inches away from the cup. She blocked my bludgeoner, but the force of it was enough to force her at least a step back even as I felt my heartbeat accelerate at the almost defeat. She retaliated with a series of hexes. Each one flowing from the others. None of them even remotely dark, but all of them annoying as hell.
A knee-reversal hex was not likely to do irreparable damage on its own, but taking a spell like that would fuck pop may mobility and could mean the end of this duel. Argh, I said in annoyance as I shattered the steps beneath me with a blasting curse. The stones I turned into m massive snakes that I banished in her direction.
“Bind, do not bite” I ordered them in parseltongue taking note of the way she shivered at the magical language. Few people could just shrug off hearing it for the first time. She ignored the snakes for as long as she should, keeping up her constant rain of hexes and jinxes. Each spell she sent cast perfectly and clearly chosen for how easy they were to cast, and thus how quickly she could use them in a duel. Of course, ignoring the snakes meant that it was only a matter of time until she would be out of the fight as they crossed the distance and began to reach her feet. She turned to deal with them, and my bludgeoner caught her right in the midsection, sending her flying off the stairs and into the maze’s wall a second later.
