Chapter 79 - The Second Battle

While the 3 against 9 fight was continuing, Chris and 'Harry' were also having a fierce fight of their own. While 'Harry' and Chris were stronger than the four Death Eaters on an individual level, their advantage disappeared as they were outnumbered.

'Luckily we don't have to win this fight,' Chris thought. 'As long as we buy time for the others to finish off their opponents then we'll win for sure. With their dėsɨrė to capture us, they won't dare use anything too excessive,'

Chris continued to cast spells that would immediately incapacitate his opponents such as the Full Body Bind Curse. Likewise, as the Death Eaters did not want to kill 'Harry' or Chris for fear of angering Voldemort, they were only able cast non-lethal spells as well. While the duel still felt like a fiercer version of the practices Chris had gotten from the Duelling Club, but he was still calm.

Unlike Chris, the Death Eaters fighting them started to get more frustrated as the realization that they couldn't defeat Chris and 'Harry' dawned upon them even when they knew that they had the advantage in numbers. As they briefly looked to their side, they realized that Walden, Thorfinn, and Rodolphus were also struggling to defeat their opponents who were overpowering them with number.

"I'll take full responsibility. Split them up. Kill Evergreen and quickly capture Potter. We'll leave as soon as we're done," One of the Death Eaters said. As the other Death Eaters were frustrated, they agreed. They quickly sent out Killing Curses against Chris which he was forced to dodge.

'Shit this wasn't the part of the plan,' Chris thought as he was getting further and further away from 'Harry' who was still doing fine against the other 2 Death Eaters that were still casting non-lethal spells.

'God damn it,' Chris thought as he quickly cast a Stunning Spell.

It was quickly blocked by the swipe of one of the Death Eater's wand, but it gave Chris the small opportunity to start hiding behind the numerous tall trees around him and try to find opportunities to attack. However, Chris continuously hiding behind the trees and coming out briefly to attack only infuriated the Death Eaters further. In their fury, they started to cast various explosive curses that destroyed the area around the explosion in order to lure Chris into the open and kill him. After a while of the strategy not working, one of the Death Eaters released Fiendfyre. Huge jets of fire ejected from his wand and the Death Eater flicked their wands to produce a chimera from the fire.

Chris' eyes bulged and he shook a little from the massive chimera that was staring down at him.The chimera roared and started to chase after him.

He quickly cast the counter-curse, but was only able to partially dispel the flames as it was too big for him to eliminate fully. The chimera charged towards him getting bigger as it started to devour the dead leaves, branches, and even the smaller trees around it. Chris dodged as fast as he could and narrowly avoided the chimera. Taking advantage of Chris' attention being drawn to the fiery beast, the other Death Eater cast a Killing curse aiming at Chris. At the same time, the chimera turned around to face Chris and charged at him again as it was roaring getting bigger as it was devouring more objects around it.

Chris noticed the Killing Curse and immediately jumped away to dodge it. However, due to his sudden jumping, he fell down to the ground. The chimera, almost seeming happy that his prey fell, roared and ran towards Chris to devour him. Chris tried to use to counter-curse to try to dispel it, but it was too close for him to even start the counter-curse let alone dodge it. The two Death Eaters smiled under their masks.

At the moment, Chris heard a shout.

"Expugno Maleficum!"

The chimera roared, but while it wasn't completely dispelled, the flames dwindled a bit. Chris looked at the direction from where the shout came from and it was Lilly who was fighting against Luthor earlier. Chris took a further look and saw Luthor's body on the ground dead, his open eyes seeming like he was not willing to die the way he did. Lilly continuously flicked her wrist to try to completely dispel the Chimera. She was starting to sweat from the amount of difficulty she was facing from trying to dispel the fire.

Chris took this opportunity to stand up and quickly cast the Stunning Spell on the Death Eater that cast the Killing Curse on him earlier. The Death Eater quickly tried to defend, but failed to do so as his guard was originally down. The Stunning Spell hit him and the the Death Eater fell to the ground unable to move a muscle. Chris turned to the other Death Eater whose Fiendfyre was now successfully dispelled by Lilly.

"Damn you Evergreen!" The Death Eater shouted as he started cast various curses including the Killing Curse. However, he was no match for Chris as Chris easily overpowered him and used to Stunning Spell to incapacitate him.

The battle between Walden, Thorfinn, Rodolphus, and the 9 rebels were over as well with Thorfinn and Walden dead while Rodolphus's right arm was missing. He knelt from the pain he was feeling, but he smiled and even laughed.

"We can die here today, but the Dark Lord will avenge us. He knew that we were doing this for the sake of his happiness. You all will be the very first he will send to the depths of hell to meet us. I will be your devil giving you eternal torture!" Rodolphus said.

However, no one paid attention to him except for 1 person who was guarding him in case anything happened.

'Harry', who was uninjured, walked in front of Rodolphus. He knelt in front of Rodolphus who spit on his face.

"I curse you Potter! You will die miserably just like your parents have! You-" Before, he could curse 'Harry' anymore, 'Harry' changed his nose to a pig's nose and immediately turned it back.

'Rodolphus' eyes widened and his shock quickly became anger. He screamed and fell, his breathing stopped after the excessive anger he felt in his soul.

'You have passed your test!'
