"Come out!"

Despite feeling puzzled by Old One-Eye's reaction, George did not miss the opportunity to attack at the perfect moment.

While dispatching two Dark Wizards with his wand and light magic, he simultaneously summoned his blade with his superpower, intending to quickly eliminate the last Dark Wizard and then subdue Old One-Eye.

However, just then, a witch suddenly rushed out from the side and launched an attack on Old One-Eye.

"Expelliarmus!"

It was Amy, who had followed Lena just like George. When she saw Old One-Eye taking a hostage, her experience immediately told her he would try to escape through the tent's exit while holding the hostage.

Thus, while the Auror captain negotiated with Old One-Eye, Amy quietly moved to the tent's exit and hid behind some clutter.

The moment she saw George launch his surprise attack and rescue the hostage, she no longer held back. Coordinating with George, she revealed herself and attacked Old One-Eye.

Had Amy and George succeeded, Old One-Eye and the remaining Dark Wizard would have been subdued immediately.

But Old One-Eye, being an experienced Dark Wizard, was no ordinary opponent. While his mouth continued muttering an incantation in an unknown language, he patted his robe, which immediately generated a Shield Charm as a defense.

It was clear that the robe he wore today was no ordinary wizard robe—it was enhanced with the Shield Charm.

Unfortunately for his companion, the remaining Dark Wizard wasn't as lucky. George's blade severed one of his hands, rendering him unable to cast spells.

The Shield Charm blocked Amy's Disarming Spell, allowing Old One-Eye to escape from the tent.

"Amy, George, we've set up Anti-Apparition spells across the entire magical street! He won't escape—chase him!"

At that moment, Lena's voice echoed.

Since seeing George's surprise rescue, Lena and the other Aurors had been rushing to this location at top speed. They were now just a dozen meters away.

Upon hearing Lena's call, Amy immediately dashed out, while George paused briefly to greet Hermione politely.

"Are you hurt?"

"No."

Hermione nodded dazedly.

She had originally been traveling with her parents in Dijon. But upon receiving George's reply that he was also traveling in France and staying in Paris, she inexplicably wanted to visit Paris as well.

So, after some pleading with her father, she managed to alter their plans and came to Paris.

What she didn't expect was that on her very first day in Paris, at this fascinating magical creature performance troupe, she would witness a battle between Dark Wizards and Aurors—and even be taken hostage by a Dark Wizard.

To be honest, seeing a Dark Wizard use the Killing Curse to end someone's life terrified her.

The basilisk in the past had been frightening, but at least no one had died back then.

What surprised her even more was George's sudden appearance, like a hero descending from the heavens, to save her once again.

"Hermione, Hermione, my child, are you okay?"

At that moment, Hermione's parents arrived at the tent entrance with the Aurors.

Among the three adults who had been held hostage, two were Muggles—Hermione's parents.

"Do you know that boy who just saved us?"

One of the other rescued girls approached Hermione. The older of the two girls asked her curiously.

Hermione, looking at the taller and younger girls in front of her, replied with a touch of pride:

"We're both students at Hogwarts, and he's one of my best friends."

"I'm Fleur Delacour, a fifth-year student at Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, and this is my younger sister, Gabrielle Delacour. Thank you to your friend for saving us—he was truly incredible!"

The older girl spoke with heartfelt gratitude.

She had brought her eight-years-younger sister to see the magical creature performance, never expecting such a terrifying event to unfold.

Had it not been for the boy who looked even younger than herself stepping in, she and her sister might have perished at the hands of the Dark Wizard today.

Moved by the rescue, Fleur had approached to express her gratitude after noticing the boy was acquainted with Hermione, one of the other hostages.

"He's called George, a first-year student at Hogwarts. I'm Hermione Granger, a second-year student.

He's the best wizard at Hogwarts."

Hearing the girl praise George, Hermione felt an inexplicable sense of pride swelling in her chest.

Meanwhile, as George and Amy rushed out of the tent, they found that Old One-Eye hadn't fled. Instead, he stood in the middle of the street with a sinister expression, staring them down.

"Finally finished chanting. This ancient magic is such a hassle, but now it's time for you to witness its power!"

Old One-Eye raised his wand above his head, spinning it continuously in mid-air.

Above the magical street, as his wand moved, dark clouds began to gather. Thunder roared, and lightning flashed across the sky.

"Ancient Magic: Thunderstorm's Descent!"

Suddenly, a torrential storm of lightning bolts rained down, covering most of the magical street in their destructive path.

In truth, from the moment they were surrounded, Old One-Eye had suspected the Aurors might have sealed off the entire magical street with Anti-Apparition spells to prevent their escape.

As a precaution, he had already begun chanting this ancient lightning magic while retreating from the tent with his hostage.

Though the incantation for ancient magic required an extraordinarily long casting time, its devastating power was worth the effort.

Even if he couldn't kill the pursuing Aurors outright, he could at least disrupt their pursuit, giving himself a chance to escape the magical street unimpeded.

The earlier ambush by that boy and the female Auror had nearly disrupted his chant, but fortunately, he managed to buy enough time to complete it.

"What kind of magic is this? It doesn't look like a Weather Charm!"

Seeing the lightning rain down, George immediately cast the Shield Charm (Protego) in front of him. Amy and the Aurors who had followed closely behind did the same, but all of them were baffled by the terrifying scale of the lightning magic.

Weather Charms could alter the weather—turn a sunny day into a rainy one, or a rainy day into a snowy one—but they didn't have the power to summon such deadly lightning from the sky.

"These lightning strikes are incredibly strong—oh no, the tent is destroyed!"

The bolts of lightning, each packing immense power, struck with such force that even the Shield Charm trembled violently, on the verge of shattering. Moving under these conditions became nearly impossible.

To make matters worse, the tent housing the magical creatures was struck by lightning and destroyed. Everything inside—people, magical creatures, and various items—was ejected and scattered across the street.

"Hahaha! I'm going to kill you all—every last one of you!"

Old One-Eye continued to wave his wand, causing the relentless lightning to strike everyone within its range.

This included Hermione, who hadn't yet mastered the Shield Charm, her Muggle parents, Fleur and Gabrielle Delacour, the magical creatures, and the performers from the magical creature troupe who had been hiding earlier.

It's worth noting that the Shield Charm wasn't a simple spell. Even among Ministry of Magic employees, not everyone could cast it proficiently—let alone the wizards outside.
