[HP] Night Haze

In the boundless darkness, every breath formed a strange frost in the summer evening.

Before arriving at Hogwarts, the express train that Angelo and his party took suddenly stopped moving. Just when they thought the old antique car had broken down, all the light was replaced by cold and intense darkness in an instant.

"Something outside wants to come in." Ron leaned on the window and peeked out. Almost a second later, he suddenly pulled his hand away from the glass and shivered.

There were screams of fear in the dark, people stepped on each other's feet in the corridor, someone fell, the whole car was in chaos, and everyone realized that there was something unwelcome in the train, the ghostly figure Floating through the corridors, taking people's joy away.The compartment Angelo was in was suddenly opened, and someone tripped on the door frame and fell in painfully.

"Who's there!" Angelo yelled, and Neville's groan sounded from near the door.

"Do you know what happened?" Another person rushed in, and Angelo recognized Ron's sister Ginny from the voice.

"I'll ask the driver." Hermione remained calm at this time, no one knew what happened.

While they were talking, the half-closed compartment door was pulled open very slowly, and just when they thought someone else wanted to come in, a monster in an old cloak floated into their sight in the dark .

"Ah—" the little wizards screamed and gathered together, most of the dementor's body was hidden under the cloak, and it was impossible to see clearly, only a pair of gray scabbed hands, as if soaked in water and rotting, looked at them. Stretching out, shimmering eerily in the dark.

"Call God to guard! Angelo!" The words of Vidi in the ring gave the overwhelmed blond boy a sudden motivation.

Although during the summer vacation, he learned from his adoptive mother that the dementors were coming to the school, he practiced spells to protect himself under the supervision of Vidi.Angelo was still overwhelmed by the intense chill that swept across his body.

The never-before-experienced chill penetrated the skin, pierced the chest, and even the beating heart was condensed by the cold.

As soon as Angelo opened his mouth, he felt a biting cold pouring into his mouth, and the monster under the cloak floated and slowly approached them.

"Recall how I taught you during the summer vacation, Angelo!" Vidi's words made Angelo break free from the pain of being robbed of all happiness.

"Excuse me..." He raised his wand, feeling strangely that the monster seemed to be looking at him.

Yes, the monster was watching him, and although the dementor's face was completely hidden under the hood, and he had no vision, the feeling of being watched was especially strong at this moment.

Silver light gathered at the tip of Angelo's wand along with the spell, and a hazy mass was conceived in the air.

"Call God to protect—" Wei!Angelo's last note didn't come out, and the untimely numbing electric shock on the base of his fingers dissipated his magic power.

"Okay, Angelo." The male voice in the ring said.

"Why did you do this, Viddy!" Angelo was furious at the sudden stop of the other party, and lost the deterrence of the spell, the dementors approached them even closer.

"I almost succeeded!" The spell stuck in his throat before he could say it again, and his collaborator actually intervened again at this time, so that the front of his wand didn't even make a wave.

"Yes, you are almost successful, Angelo. I have no doubts about this. You have done a good job, really good." The young devil comforted Angelo, but the approach of the dementor made Angelo angry, and he almost I can smell the rancid stench emanating from that monster!After he tried to cast the Patronus spell, no matter whether the target the dementor wanted to approach before was Harry or anyone else around him, it was now clearly aimed at him.

"You're going to kill me!" Angelo thought he was yelling loudly, but in fact Viddy could barely hear it.Angelo saw the black hole under the dementor's hood—it was a mouth that could swallow souls, evil and ugly.

Although the transmission of thoughts has gone through several cycles, all these exchanges only happened in a flash, and they were completed in an instant.

"Guardian!" An adult man's voice suddenly rang in Angelo's ear, saving him from the embarrassment. The vaguely shaped patron saint followed a white light to disperse the greedy and devouring opponents who devoured everyone's happiness, and it was almost the same as Anji The dementors that Luo was sticking together fled away in shock.

The lights in the compartment came on after a few blinks, and all the lights in the train returned to normal operation.After the dementors left, the surrounding air returned to normal temperature, and the people bathed in the light felt safe and relaxed. Angelo lowered his wand, feeling that his robes were wet with cold sweat.

"It's okay." The adult wizard who was sleeping soundly by the window and didn't even wake up for lunch stood in front of them. His not strong body was so thick and reliable in the eyes of the little wizard.

"Have some chocolate, you'll feel better." He handed out pieces from a large bar of chocolate to everyone.

"What you just saw was a dementor from Azkaban, sent by the Ministry of Magic to guard Hogwarts." He explained to the terrified little wizards.

"Why did you do that!" Angelo sat back in his seat and was still immersed in the conversation with the ring. Vidi's behavior that was tantamount to betrayal made him feel chilled and scared.

"Just to say hello to it." The young Demon King explained, with apology in his gentle voice, which made Angelo feel a little better.

"Dementors are extremely sensitive to souls, and they are not only interested in the happy memories of human beings as people think." The male voice in the ring said unhurriedly, "It didn't approach you just now to hurt you , but to see the eccentricity hidden in you. The Ministry of Magic must have had a contract beforehand to get them here, so you are not actually in danger."

"Hello? Say hello to the dementor! Are you crazy! Your broken soul is just for dessert!" Angelo almost choked. "Don't do crazy things, please, Viddy!"

"Things are not as bad as you think, Angelo." The young devil sighed softly, "You should trust your collaborators, they can do anything."

"Yes, that's why you, who are omnipotent, met me!" Angelo laughed angrily.

"Anyway, that dementor will feed back the news of seeing me to their leader. When you are scared out of your wits by its appearance, I have already talked with it in the way of soul." The young devil knew that he His collaborators were terrified, so they tolerated Angelo's behavior against him today to the extreme.

"I'm sorry to let you use the patron saint magic, but it was stopped halfway." The red-eyed man said to the boy gently, "But it was as I planned, and everyone thought it stayed for so long because you provoked it, and I also confirmed that you can also cast magic to protect yourself in front of real dementors, which is very good."

"They are the guards of Azkaban. It's too risky for you to do this, Vidi! Maybe they will sell you to the Ministry of Magic!" Thinking of this possibility, Angelo panicked.

"Sell me to the Ministry of Magic, what can they get, one more prisoner who needs to be guarded? Or an incomplete, not even delicious soul?" The process of making Horcruxes allows the Dark Lord to master more Exquisite control over the soul.He knows what dementors like and what they don't like, so he can easily win over the group of soul killers stationed in Azkaban under his banner during the period of subversion.

"...It's the first time I've seen you belittle yourself so much, Vidi." Angelo lowered his head and smiled wryly, "For dementors, there is no soul that is not delicious... unless you don't even have any happy memories... "Angelo grabbed a corner of his robe and pinched it in his hands.

"Poor little Angelo, your understanding of dementors is only at the most superficial level." The young devil smiled. I don't know much more than you - for example, this time, I think the person in charge on the train should be contacting Dumbledore to blame the Ministry of Magic for not keeping them safe. In fact, these dementors have never been more dedicated than they are now. They climbed on the train to record the smell of all the people who entered the school in the normal way and copy it to other companions. This is their way of communication. The leader described it as clear as a lake, and the dementors are a bunch of sloppy ghosts who don't like to take a bath."

Whether Viddy was telling the truth or just fooling him, Angelo was amused by the other's humor.Just when he was suppressing his expression and was about to lose his breath from laughing, an unfamiliar voice came from his ear.

"What's your name?"

Well, he didn't forget that he was still in the small compartment of the train.The adult wizard with light brown hair was looking at him friendly.Angelo looked around, and the mood of the students had basically stabilized. Even Neville, a confused kid, was devoting himself to nibbling on chocolate.

"Angelo Burns." He chewed and swallowed the poor-quality chocolate that had been in his mouth since the beginning of communicating with Vidi, but it didn't melt at all in his mouth, and it was still hard.

"Angelo, many children of your age don't even know the spell 'Calling God's Guard'. You almost succeeded just now. It's great. Maybe with a little more guidance, you can cast it." The sick adult wizard patted Angelo on the shoulder friendly. "I can give you some guidance... I forgot to introduce myself, I am Remus Lupine, you can call me Professor Lupine, I will be responsible for teaching you Defense Against the Dark Arts this year."

"Nice to meet you, Professor Lupine." Angelo smiled politely.

Thinking about it now, it's not bad that he didn't fully use the patron saint's magic. With Vidi by his side, what he needs is to be a low-key person, not to shock the world.

"Actually, my mother works in the Ministry of Magic, so I have been interested in this since I was a child." Angelo found a good reason for himself.

"Oh, Burns! I should have thought of it earlier." Lupine suddenly realized, and he looked at Angelo with a little more affection.

"Director Burns is a respectable man."

"Thank you." This time it was Angelo who was surprised. It was obvious that Lupine's evaluation of his adoptive mother Amelia was not just saying what others said, but what he had really experienced.

"Angelo, I seem to have forgotten to inform you that there is a werewolf standing in front of you." Vidy suddenly said as if he was going to make trouble on purpose.

"Viddy! In the future, this kind of thing can be revealed slowly when no one is around." Angelo gritted his teeth. He almost lost his dignity in front of the new teacher because he couldn't control his surprised expression.

Angelo suddenly remembered who this sick-looking man was. He had seen the trial record of a werewolf Death Eater during the downfall of the Dark Lord.One of the charges was biting a decent wizarding child years ago, and the professor was that victim...

"She helped me..." Sure enough, Lupine recalled this sentence as soon as he opened his mouth, but he quickly restrained his emotions, and did not give the little wizard a chance to delve into it.

"I'm free during the day every weekend. If you have any questions about Defense Against the Dark Arts, you can come to me."

"This new professor is a bit self-righteous, Angelo." The young devil sneered disdainfully in the ring, "He thinks I'm here, can he teach you? Does he think he's smarter than me?"

"He's just out of kindness, Viddy!" Angelo felt his head throbbing, "I'm more concerned about what you just told the dementors to bring a message to their leader than Professor Lupine."

Angelo was very worried about this: "Calm down and think about it, I still don't know what you are planning. Tell me, is this matter related to Sirius Black?"

"There is a part, Angelo." The young devil was ambiguous about this, and smiled slightly, "I can only tell you that if we succeed, we can get two Horcruxes."
