Wizardry System - Chapter 69
The place near Voldemort exploded immediately.
“Go!” Chris shouted. The rest of the students hiding appeared from their hiding spots and shot out the spells they excelled at the most. Some were Expulso Curses and others were Blasting Curses.
Chris let out spells of his own.
“Expulso!”
“Bombarda Maxima!”
Chris let out all the spells that dealt with explosions. However, out of the dust that started to form from Chris’ spells, multiple green lights exited hitting some of the students instantly killing them.
‘Shit!’ Chris thought as he started to move around and shoot spells. From what he could see, 4 students died from the Avada Kedavra’s. Chris continuously let out Expulso curses. However, more and more Avada Kedavras were shot out. Soon all the students except for Chris was killed. When the dust settled, Chris laughed.
‘It looks like we did our job!’ Chris thought happily as he saw how many people were remaining. Around half the Death Eaters died from the ambush. Voldemort, who had some dust on his face, was fuming as he took a look at how many Death Eaters died.
“Come out you rat! I know there’s still one of you remaining!” Voldemort roared.
Chris thought of running away.
‘I’m alone so I can probably escape, but Hermione shouldn’t have made it yet. If Voldemort ends up finding them somehow, it’ll be disastrous. Luckily, I’m confident in my Occlumency so he shouldn’t be able to pry into my mind,’ Chris thought. He then stepped out of his hiding spot revealing himself to Voldemort.
Voldemort was surprised when he saw Chris, but he smiled.
“Ah… the heir of the Evergreen family. It seems that you are doing well. I suppose that your mother and father don’t know that you have decided to go against me,” Voldemort said. “No matter. You’re born from one of the purest family. I’ll be glad to take you in. Those that died were incompetent fools anyways. I’ll forgive your sins if you decide to join me,”
Hearing this Chris laughed again.
“That’s weird,” Chris said. “I have killed half your men. Besides that, aren’t you a little too boring Dark Lord?”
“What did you say?!” Voldemort asked angrily.
“Why you only use the Killing Curse and nothing else. It seems that you have dulled. In your dėsɨrė to master this one curse, your knowledge of every other spell got reduced to almost nothing,” Chris said as he laughed.
Voldemort’s thin body started to shake.
“You dare insult me?! The greatest wizard in the entirety of the Wizarding World?!” Voldemort asked.
“No that was Dumbledore,” Chris said. “Unfortunately, it wasn’t even you that killed him. It was Severus Snape who did,”
“I have killed Snape. I have killed the man that killed Dumbledore,” Voldemort shouted as he got even angrier than before.
“Why I’m sure he trusted you to not kill him. His guard was down. You have taken advantage of that. You’re simply a cowardly snake that takes advantage of the strong. That’s how you came into power. You are nothing more than a cowardly dictator!” Chris said with a smile.
Voldemort took out his wand and pointed it at Chris. However, he stopped himself and chuckled.
“Imagine being provoked by a brat. It seems that you have won in your little scheme Chris Evergreen,” Voldemort said with a sinister smile. “Well no matter. I’ll give you what you want. You have called me a coward so I’ll show you what a coward does. Bring him to me alive,”
Voldemort pointed at Chris and half of the remaining death eaters apparated behind Chris while the other half ran in front of Chris blocking Chris’ path.
“Why you really are a coward,” Chris said trying to provoke Voldemort a little more.
“Yes I am,” Voldemort said. “This cowardly dictator will happily detain you and see where your friends are. In the end, I will kill Harry Potter and I will cleanse this world of Mudbloods. Only the purest shall remain. Of course you will also be on that list. I am quite forgiving. It may take the Imperius Curse, but it can be done,”
When Chris looked around, he recognized some of the Death Eaters. They weren’t famous like Bellatrix, Snape, or Dolohov, but he still knew that they were elite troops. If they were to die, the Order of the Phoenix would have a much easier time dealing with all the Death Eaters. As for Voldemort, that was up to Harry.
‘I think I stalled for enough time,’ Chris thought. ‘Everyone should’ve already make it to the base by now,’
“Dark Lord, do you know what spell would be the best for this situation?” Chris asked.
“Oh do you think you can get out of this situation?” Voldemort asked.
Chris whispered a chant and flame was shot out of his wand. He pointed at the ground with all the dry leaves and everything started to rapidly burn and spread. Multiple animals such as dragons, snakes, and eagles started to form. In the span of a few seconds, the animals grew 6 meters tall with the fire encompassing the entire area. The Death Eaters surrounding Chris all panicked and tried to use the Extinguishing Charm, but it was useless. The fire instantly evaporated all the water and they were all engulfed in flames. Flames continued to pour out of Chris’ wand, but he had no intentions of stopping it. He let the fire go out of control burning everything in sight. However, before it could spread any further, Voldemort lifted his wand and all the fire started to go towards him.
‘Shit it’s the countercurse,’ Chris thought as Voldemort started to gather all the fire and dispelled it.
Voldemort looked at Chris and laughed.
“Fiendfyre. Who knew using out of control magic would be the proper way to win the fight!” Voldemort said. “Those incompetent fools let fear overtake them and decided to use the Extinguishing Charm instead of the countercurse. No matter, I can always replace idiots like them,”
Voldemort immediately shot out a spell surprising Chris. Chris quickly used the Shield Charm bȧrėly blocking Voldemort’s spell.
Voldemort continuously shot out spells leaving no room for Chris to attack. However, the more Voldemort attacked, the angrier he became. Soon he let out a scream and shot out a green light.
Due to what Voldemort stated earlier, Chris did not expect Voldemort to use the Killing Curse. He used the Disarming Charm to counter it. The two spells clashed letting out a bright light. The green light started to slowly encroach upon Chris like a snake slowly approaching to eat its prey. Chris tried to direct the Killing Curse elsewhere, but he failed. The green light hit him and Chris’ world instantly turned black.
