Hogwarts: I can see Magic Paths

Chapter 57: Chapter 57 - Battle at Night



While waiting for their uninvited guest, Felix watched the sun grow lower and lower on the horizon. Soon darkness crept across the yard as the moon appeared and rose in the sky. Lightly turning the page of his book, Felix placed his bookmark in and closed it.

"It's time." He called out to William.

Soon, the sound of popping could be heard by a few dozen around the house. It sounded like gunshots since their visitor didn't care about being heard. Well, Felix assumed that to be the case or otherwise, most of the Death Eaters with the Dark Lord weren't very proficient in Apparition.

Then the house began to light up from outside as screams of agony could be heard. Lightning, fire, explosions in a chaotic mess as the traps prepared by Felix went off. Thus carefully approaching the window, Felix saw a bunch of black robes and silver mask on the ground. Only a couple were still standing as they probably arrived late.

"Dad, get down." Felix said.

Following his words, William ducked behind the couch when the window exploded. Glass shards flew to where he was just standing impaling into the wall before shattering. This marked the beginning of the chaotic battle.

Calming his beating heart, Felix leaned a bit and shot a spell to the ground. Then in an instant dozens of large earth spikes shot out of the ground impaling many on the ground and a couple standing.

Just, this was one side of the house and the other side basically exploded. So twirling his wand, Felix quickly repaired the house before it completely collapsed on them. Where he followed it up with him swinging his wand above his head like he was spinning a lasso.

The temperature began to quickly plummet as William and Felix could see their breath. While the windows grew frost, outside the Death Eaters watched as a blue ring appeared above the house. Their blood ran cold as their lips quickly turned blue and fingers followed suit.

"Quickly, stop him." Someone shouted.

"Gah!" Another screamed as he fell over and seemed to freeze to death.

"Master! Save us." 

"Worthless fools." A cold and angry voice said.

Felix felt his spell was interrupted as the temperature began to rapidly rise as fire began to rage around. It mainly formed a large flaming serpent, but it morphed slightly as it spread. Which told him that Voldemort was here and unleashing his Fiendfyre.

"He's here." Felix told William.

"Dumbledore?" William's shaky voice asked.

"Right now is not a good time to day dream." Felix shook his head.

As the back door exploded, William pointed the gun in that direction and pulled the trigger. A couple screams appeared but they were more of a surprise then being hit by bullets. If Felix had more time, he would have changed it into a magic gun like in Fairy Tail.

Mentally noting to write it down later so he could add it to his list of things to do. Felix moved to the hallway and casted a spell throwing the intruders into the wall. The sound of bones cracking were heard as they slumped unconscious to the ground.

Yet, the front door exploded at this time. On the other side, a tall slender man appeared. He had glowing red eyes, a shiny head and a nose that seemed half human and half snake like. His black robe seemed to be bellowing in the wind as it was quite eerie.

Felix wiped his wand and ice spears blurred towards the man, but the man simply raised his wand and clocked it. Various objects in the house appeared and blocked or made the ice spears shift off course.

"We finally met." The man's chilly voice filled the house.

"Can't say it's a pleasure." Felix retorted.

Then Felix began to whirl his wand, throwing various spells at him. Truth be told, Felix was honestly terrified at the moment. This is Voldemort and not one played by Dumbledore and luck to die. He still had his horcruxes since Felix still needed time to prepare and train his skill in magic. For he was getting closer to using a spell that would shatter and prevent the man from making more.

Various colors began to light up the house as walls were torn down and large holes appeared. Then, Felix locked spells with Voldemort as a red and green beam formed between them. Almost like they were locked in a stalemate as Felix felt beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

Then, William who was trying to hide, pulled out a bottle of fire from one of the bags and threw it hard at Voldemort. The man lifted his hand to use magic to rebound it. However, Felix grinned as he enchanted the bottles to repel such magic.

"You rodent." Voldemort screamed angrily.

His skin burning away alongside his robes. Using this chance when he was distracted, Felix flung their mixture of spells at him. Yet, one of the man followers who was nearby pulled the man out of the way by a hair.

Angrily, Voldemort began to retaliate by throwing various and large scale destruction spells at the house. So as Felix was distracted by the house collapsing, Voldemort threw a curse at him, but William who saw it jumped in front.

"Dad!"
