Two Worlds: I studied at Hogwarts

#65 - Continuous [Leg Lock Curse]

Curiosity killed the cat.

This was the first proverb Muen learned after arriving at Hogwarts.

He had only heard the professors use this phrase when dissuading students, as young wizards are always full of curiosity about new magic.

Of course, these curious young wizards also included Muen, especially after experiencing four years of being called a "half-baked psychic."

But today, after opening the wooden door of the Herbology Club, Muen truly understood the real power of this saying.

The "Crab Claw Orchid Club" is on the right side of the Great Hall on the first floor, next to a long stone staircase.

The stairs lead up to the teaching area on the second floor, and down to the Hufflepuff common room and the Potions classroom.

When Muen walked out of the room, Quirrell had already run into the hall, and the person following behind him turned and headed towards the second floor.

Muen had never seen anyone cast such a long shadow on the stairs.

Originally curious about who could tolerate the garlic smell on Quirrell's body, Muen now wanted to see whose long shadow was on the ground.

Enduring the pungent garlic smell, Muen quietly walked to the stairwell.

Bang!

The first thing Muen saw was a huge, unshod foot stepping on the stairs.

Above that were a pair of thick, sturdy calves.

Then he saw a brown bark kilt, dull skin, and finally a head the size of a cocoa bean.

[Giant?]

Watching the creature, about twelve feet tall, walk towards the second floor step by step, the name of a textbook popped into Muen's mind.

The giant's strides were large, each step three times farther than a normal person's, and it only took two steps to climb a dozen stairs.

Muen knew this must be an enemy or a dangerous person, because no one would be carrying such a thick wooden stick in the school.

He tightly covered his mouth and nose, and then prepared to slowly retreat back to the club's classroom.

One step... two steps...

Muen now regretted that he had walked a long distance to see the other person clearly.

The garlic smell in the air was still strong, and at the same time, a stench from the giant wafted down from the stairs.

Achoo!

Muen guaranteed that he had minimized the sneeze, he had even covered his mouth and nose, but the big guy still heard it.

On the small head, the long ears twitched twice, and then the giant turned its head and saw Muen at the bottom of the stairs.

At the same time, Muen, who had not retreated to a safe place, also saw the giant's ugly face.

The small eyes revealed a foolish and brutal expression, thick white snot hung from the large, ugly nose, and the everted, thick lips were filled with jagged fangs.

After seeing Muen, the giant opened its mouth wide with excitement, as if it had found prey.

Then it strode towards the bottom of the stairs, and the black shadow of the stick also whistled down.

At this time, Muen made the action he had practiced thousands of times in Xilin.

[Leg-Locking Curse]

Nine consecutive shots!

Thump!

The shadow of the stick slammed down directly in front of Muen, less than an inch from his nose.

And the giant fell directly from the stairs because it was hit by the curse.

At this time, Muen could hear the students' noise coming from the hall, the prefect's shouts, and a female voice from the second floor.

"Muen~"

"Muen~"

......

Hermione called out several times before Muen recovered from his terrified state.

That big wooden stick was only a little bit away from hitting his head.

Muen finally recovered, and many people ran out of the hall.

McGonagall was originally walking in the front, but when she turned the corner and saw Muen and Hermione, her face immediately turned cold.

"What are you doing here!"

McGonagall only said one sentence, and then saw something lying on the ground, she immediately turned her head to look at the students who were about to follow.

"Everyone go back to the hall, no one is allowed to come out!"

"And you two, hurry up and come over here, hide behind me."

Hearing this, Hermione pulled the just-recovered Muen and quickly ran behind McGonagall.

"Alright, don't be afraid!"

The students returned to the hall inexplicably, while the professors walked out one by one.

"What happened? Minerva."

Dumbledore walked in front of all the professors, and when he saw the troll, his brow furrowed unconsciously.

"I don't know, as soon as I came out, I saw the troll lying on the ground."

McGonagall's hands were still spread out, protecting Muen and Hermione as they moved backwards.

Noticing that the white-bearded headmaster's eyes were looking at him, Muen hurriedly explained.

"I don't know either, I just walked out of the club's classroom, and then saw the giant walking towards the second floor, then it wanted to hit me, and then I cast a [Leg-Locking Curse] on it."

Muen's words were a little incoherent, but the explanation was clear enough.

"I can prove it, Headmaster, Mr. Scarlett is taking care of the herbs in my club."

Sprout walked out, and after saying that, came to Muen's side and gently patted him on the shoulder.

Flitwick also walked out of the crowd at this time, and carefully checked the troll's legs with his wand.

"Strange, logically speaking, the troll's skin is very thick, and the [Leg-Locking Curse] can't hurt it at all."

"Is there a problem? Filius."

Dumbledore also stepped forward and checked the troll's condition.

"It's the [Leg-Locking Curse] alright, I estimate that at least five spells hit the troll, otherwise it would be impossible for this big guy to fall unconscious from the stairs."

Hearing this, Dumbledore also looked at the troll's legs.

At this time, Muen's spell effect was already very small, and the troll's skin had great magic resistance.

So Professor Flitwick had just finished speaking, and the troll showed signs of activity again.

[Stupefy]

[Petrificus Totalus]

[Leg-Locker Curse]

Dumbledore was the first to notice the troll's movements and cast the [Stupefy] spell.

Immediately afterwards, Flitwick also cast the [Petrification Curse].

At the same time, Muen tightened his grip on his wand and gave the troll another [Leg-Locking Curse].

"Oh!"

McGonagall and Sprout were both startled by Muen's sudden movements.

In their opinion, with Dumbledore present, there was no need to take action at all.

But Muen didn't have this idea, and he was still in a state of high tension.

Seeing that the troll showed signs of moving, this instantly put him into a spellcasting state.

"I knew he had the talent to be a duelist!"

After being surprised, Professor Flitwick showed an admiring smile to Muen.

However, the other professors were not like Flitwick, they were all staring at Muen, and even Hermione next to him showed a curious look.

Muen unconsciously blamed the right hand holding the wand.

He was trained like this in Xilin by Zalan, as long as the little animal he caught moved, Muen's [Leg-Locking Curse] would be cast directly.

Later, these little animals became smart, they began to pretend to be dead to avoid being hit by the curse.

But later Zalan ate these little animals, and then replaced them with a new batch.

[Can't you pretend to be dead!]

Muen cursed the troll lying on the ground in his heart.

"Alright, Minerva, the students have been waiting in the hall for a long time, the banquet will be held as usual, everyone can go in and enjoy the delicious food together."

Dumbledore's face returned to calm again, and then he looked at his deputy.

"What about the troll, we can't just leave it here."

"Don't worry, Filius, I need you to stay here, and when Severus comes back, hand the troll over to him."

"Happy to serve, Headmaster."

Professor Flitwick bowed slightly to Dumbledore.

"As for you, Mr. Scarlett, I think it's necessary for us to have a talk."
