"Professor Hap, I advise you to mind your own business." Moody said calmly, "He needs some lessons. Attacking people behind their backs is the dirtiest, meanest ... behaviour."
"Good point." Felix nodded slightly: "But Hogwarts has long stopped corporal punishment of any sort, and I suggest sending him to Professor Snape for detention."
"Snape?" Moody showed a dismissive expression, "Yeah, Snape ... I bet he doesn't want to see me ... but I'm looking forward to having a good chat with him, what a great opportunity!"
But he still pointed his wand at the ferret, and Felix stepped forward, "Oh, I think it would be better to leave it to me--"
Bang!
A scorching spell slammed into the golden magic barrier, sputtering with golden and red sparks, and Moody's wand lit up brightly, the red light shining on the half of his face that kept twitching.
"Professor Moody," Felix stated mildly, "that's a Stunning Spell you're using."
"Try your best, boy!" Moody growled, the spell condensing into a beam of light, "Dumbledore speaks highly of you, but people like me will always believe that seeing is believing."
"That's rather an uncommon approach" Felix said with a frown, and the power of the Shield Charm in front of him increased accordingly. He had a pretty good impression of Moody; it is better to have a righteous person at school than a Foolish Con Man, or a Dark Wizard, and Moody is also a close supporter and friend of Dumbledore.
But--
He became quite mad, as Severus advised him not to get into trouble, but trouble came anyway.
The students took a few steps back, but more people gathered around, and they watched the scene with shocked faces. Last year Snape and Lupin broke the office into pieces, but no one else knew about it, but now it is different, two professors openly fighting!
"Call someone over here! Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, Snape ... whoever it is!" Hermione shouted in a panic.
As soon as a student saw the situation went bad they went to call for help, a Slytherin Prefect went straight down the entrance hall to the underground. "I'll go get Professor Snape!" He shouted hurriedly.
"You are not going to do anything like this! Boy!" Moody seemed to regain his composure and had the leisure to shout at those around him as he yelled, "Back off now! A rare opportunity to show you how real wizards fight-"
"Sorry, Professor Moody. I am not as ... unconcerned about consequences as you are." Felix said.
He actually preferred to use the word "crazy", but at this time, it is not good to stimulate Moody. Who knows if Moody will suddenly become serious in the fight? Felix would never admit defeat on purpose in any case.
The young wizards gathered around noticed that Professor Hap's spell is getting darker and more ghastly, not like a normal shield charm, but like a rusty iron plate, or rather, an ancient shield plundered from who knows where, it may be buried deep for years, nevertheless no one would doubt that it was soaked in blood.
It had the colour of dark red and iron-gray intertwined, and its shape twisted, with a brass sheen at the joints of the fold.
"What kind of magic is this!" The young wizards drew in a deep breath, dumbstruck. Professor Hap's magic looked a bit evil, ah ... but it is also really powerful.
They thought that the only way to stop this sudden dispute is for other professors to rush over here, but the situation on the scene instantly changed. Felix does not intend to continue the stalemate, a spell collision can be described as sparring, if someone jumps up and down mockingly in front of your face, and if you can't show him his place, Then what are you?! A wimpy clown?
He twirled his wand, and the dark red and iron-gray shield charm softened rapidly, gurgling on the surface like blood. A small tip protruded from the shield like a small snake, which then wrapped itself around Moody's powerful Stunning Spell.
Moody's intact eye widened, and the other magic eye bounced around, what is this thing? He felt a twinge of discomfort and tried to cut the spell, but the connection is no longer something he can break off.
Felix had silently invaded his magic, and the two wands were now forcibly linked together.
The laser-like blazing beam of light is little by little invaded with iron-gray and dark red colours, mottled like a child stained with paint, scratching randomly on a beautiful railing.
Right now, the mark is getting closer and closer to Moody.
All this happened in just a short span of time, and the students could still hear the messy footsteps of the Prefect running toward the underground, but anyone could see that he probably didn't need to call anyone.
Even the Niffler Valen, who had covered her eyes, now blatantly looked across at Moody, grunting and flaring her teeth and claws.
"Professor Moody, I'm just trying to end a pointless dispute."
"You're joking right!" Moody gritted his teeth, "Let me go!"
"Okay, at once ..." Felix mildly agreed with him, but he didn't let go, instead, he accelerated the speed of invasion.
Moody's face became more and more ugly, half of the face twitched harder. The magic eyes in the eye sockets turned wildly like an owl locked in a cage, but immediately, he showed an inconspicuous smile. Someone is coming -
"Felix! Professor Moody! What are you doing ..." McGonagall's surprised voice rang out as she scattered the books she was clutching and hurried over, drawing her wand but not knowing what to do and standing on the sidelines in frustration.
"Let go, Professor Hap, I recognize your strength." Moody said calmly, no longer had a trace of madness in his eyes.
Felix shrugged, with Professor McGonagall around, this shouldn't be a fight anymore, he flicked his wand and the strong magical fluctuations subsided. Moody withdrew his wand and took two steps back.
Everyone stared blankly at the long-lasting beam of light in midair. After losing the magic from both sides, the beam rusted away and turned into flying ash, peeling off little by little with a kind of chilling beauty.
McGonagall's eyes stared at the traces of magic left in the air, half speechless. She looked at the two of them and said, "Can anyone tell us what's going on? Two professors fighting in broad daylight, something this outrageous, has never happened at Hogwarts before!"
Neither of them spoke first, Moody hadn't thought of an excuse, and Felix didn't want to say that the new professor deserved to be an iron-blooded Auror, who would fight at the drop of a hat.
McGonagall's eyes grew dangerous, her lips pursed into a slit, her chest puffed up like a balloon.
Harry felt obliged to explain the situation, after all, the cause of the dispute began between him, Ron, and Malfoy, but he suddenly saw Professor Hap's Niffler which sitting on Professor Hap's shoulder reaching out her tiny finger to point at the ferret below.
McGonagall was actually quite concerned about Felix keeping a Niffler, but there were no rumours of a missing item in the castle yet, so she intended to wait and see.
Then her eyes fell on the ferret, feeling a little unsure, the little thing is quite beautiful, covered in snow-white fur, but it looks very timid, with two front paws clinging to Felix's pant legs, and in the fierce magic battle just now, it did not flee away.
If Niffler Valen is Felix's pet, then there is a close relationship, then this ferret, what is the situation.
Harry somewhat awkwardly reminded from the sidelines, "It's Malfoy."
"What?"
" That ferret, he's Draco Malfoy." Harry repeated.
"Oh my god!" McGonagall looked at the ferret in disbelief as Felix waved his wand, and with a loud pop, Draco Malfoy recovered again.
As he said somewhat apologetically, " I forgot about you."
