[HPxJJK] - Harry Potter and the Supremacy of Cursed Blood

Chapter 244: Chapter 241 - City of Calais (1)



England - On the Border between Dover and Calais.

Rose was sitting in an office with her legs on the desk as she read the reports on the regular barriers and searches around the Border. You could say that the border between Dover and Calais was too quiet, being the closest point between England and France.

Surprisingly, France hadn't launched an attack even after a week, which made Rose's cheerful mood completely disappear in the face of so much downtime. Which was very suspicious, given that the war had already reached every country on the European continent.

Of course, one thing that caught Rose's attention, which she had already reported to headquarters in London, was that walls had been erected around the city of Calais and gigantic what she assumed to be magically powered cannons had appeared on the wall overnight.

Honestly, when she felt that these cannons were powered by magical energy, she was shocked, especially when she felt that each shot had the same power as a Grade 3 Wizard, the larger ones had the strength of a Grade 2 Wizard!

Although she knew that Germany was the leader and the pinnacle of humanity today in the manufacture of alchemical items, seeing real magic cannons shocked her to the core. If such a thing could be mass-produced, she could imagine that Berlin had now become a veritable magical fortress that even a Special Grade Wizard would have problems with.

Of course, that was for Special Grade Wizards who had relatively common Innate Techniques that involved their physique; if it was her, it hardly mattered what the barrier was, she could even get past the Hogwarts Barrier, let alone the barrier made by Germany.

However, seeing the magical cannons, a crazy and absurd idea popped into Rose's mind. If such a cannon was possible, why couldn't a cannon with the strength of a Special Grade Wizard be possible? When such an idea appeared in her mind, even she found it ridiculous, after all, to make such a weapon required a Special Grade Wizard to use it.

But why create such a weapon when a Special Grade Wizard was much more effective than that, after all, the wizard could move around and the cannon couldn't and was limited to staying in one place. The work wasn't worth the reward.

"But if you solve the energy problem, it's possible for even a Grade Five Wizard to have the power of a Special Grade Wizard." Rose muttered to herself, thinking about the possibilities passing before her. Although it was an unfounded theory, she still decided to report her suspicions to Headquarters.

As she was about to write the report to London, Rose heard someone knocking on her office door. "Come in." She spoke in a calm tone.

As soon as she spoke, the door was opened and surprisingly, Hermione walked into the office holding a stack of papers, which made Rose's face immediately look full of disgust at the pile of paper. In one week, Rose assumed she had signed at least a thousand papers!

At that moment, she hated any pile of papers and treated them as if they were formidable enemies.

"General Potter, the papers relating to the magical potions and two reports from London Headquarters." Hermione placed the pile of papers on Rose's desk and spoke with an incredibly serious and formal tone.

Rose ignored Hermione's formal speech and picked up the two reports from London with a serious look on her face.

The first was from Dumbledore warning that all of England's internal defenses had been successfully erected and fortresses had been erected throughout the country. You could say that the second phase of the country's defense has been successfully completed and England can now send more troops abroad without being too worried about being invaded in a short time.

The second one that caught Rose's attention was Asterion's report on the situation on the Spanish-French border. Apparently, the Allied forces have successfully taken the Principality of Andorra and are building their headquarters there.

At the same time, he explained how the fight between the Special Grade Wizards went.

"Two dead, one enslaved, one subjugated and one escaped..." Rose muttered to herself with an incredulous expression mixed with a touch of envy.

Especially the death of Herpo's Horcrux brought her an enormous sense of satisfaction, she had wanted to kill that corpse-desecrating Greek mummy for a long time!

Rose's mood was lifted by reading the description of the fight, and she couldn't help cursing fate for always putting Asterion in the most interesting place. However, France having hired Special Grade mercenaries to fight in the war was something that took her by surprise.

Rose wondered if there were any Special Grade mercenaries in the city as well. If there were, she would finally have a warm-up for the fighting to come.

Hermione, seeing Rose's expression, quickly noticed that this was a serious matter; it wasn't often that she saw her friend showing such an expression. As for applying for the war, Hermione didn't hesitate to follow Rose, despite her parents' protests, but she couldn't leave her best friend alone, so she applied to be Rose's secretary.

As Rose's secretary, she could see files that were confidential, including the death tolls that were being passed around all the time. She was shocked to learn that at least a thousand wizards and witches had died in less than a week around the planet.

Especially on the border between Russia and Ukraine and Poland, the place had become a human meat grinder, the highest number of casualties at the moment being from that place. Russian Minister of Magic Dmitri Ivanov attacked the border in full force. If it hadn't been for the arrival of reinforcements, Ukraine and Poland would have been successfully invaded by Russia.

"Hermione, pass on the orders, we want to test the forces in Calais." Rose said, drawing Hermione's attention, who looked at her friend in surprise.

Yes, Rose had decided to attack, or rather test the waters, she wanted to know how many enemies there were in Calais so that she wouldn't be taken by surprise like Asterion had been.

"Are you sure? Attacking might give the wrong idea that we're going all out, it might make the other countries stand guard, especially the Netherlands." At that moment, Hermione was no longer the little girl who had just entered the Wizarding world, she knew about politics and how she would get involved in it in the future.

Perhaps every English wizard knew a little about politics, it was in their blood.

Movements in Calais could cause troops in the Netherlands and Denmark to move too, which would stress England's eastern border.

"Don't worry, I won't move, we're just testing how deep the waters are in Calais." Rose reassured her friend with a charismatic smile on her face as she looked out over the city miles away with a sly grin.

'I won't move until there's a Special Grade, if there is one... be prepared not to come back alive.' Rose thought as a typical villain's laugh seemed to echo in her mind.

"No! I'm the heroine of the story, how can there be a villain as beautiful and handsome as me!" Rose muttered to herself, although she didn't have much confidence in her own words. For some reason, her fiancé's face appeared in her mind, making her lips twitch unnaturally.

Maybe she's the villain...

Hermione, after listening to Rose's orders, saluted and left the office with an incredibly serious expression, it was the first time that Dover HQ had attacked Calais!

Hermione felt like she was back in the Hundred Years' War, Calais was the starting point and would be her starting point as well as many other wizards and witches in this city now controlled entirely by wizards.
