Chapter 173: The Duel Begins

Alvin glared at Harry and immediately grunted.

"What's the point of you telling me this? This is only effective if you talk to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement."

Harry scratched his head in embarrassment.

"How can I do that? Alvin, you know so many great people in the wizarding world. Can't you free Buckbeak?"

He looked at Alvin expectantly. In Harry's mind, Alvin was omnipotent.

Whether it's defeating Voldemort in first grade or getting the Order of Merlin.

This is not something he, who only has the name of a savior, can do.

Apart from Dumbledore, it could be said that the person Harry admired the most was Alvin.

But Alvin refused his request.

"Harry, it's not just about Crabbe. It's Buckbeak breaking the rules of the wizarding world."

"Rule?"

Harry didn't understand what Alvin meant.

Alvin continued to explain to him. "The moment Buckbeak hurts Crabbe, his end is already doomed."

"In the final analysis, the magic world is still the world of wizards, and if these magical creatures harm wizards, only one result awaits them."

Alvin didn't finish his sentence, but Harry already understood what he meant.

Hearing even Alvin say it couldn't, Harry was completely helpless.

A few people saw Harry's sad look and didn't say anything more.

Sure enough, on Wednesday, there was news from Slytherin that the Crabbe family had brought this matter to the Ministry of Magic.

But maybe so as not to let Dumbledore interfere, they didn't mention anything about Hagrid and demanded that Buckbeak be punished.

But this is just a small episode for all the students.

Tonight, the duel between Snape and Lupin is the highlight.

After dinner, Professor McGonagall waved his wand and set up the Great Hall as the venue for a Duelling Club.

Slytherin and Gryffindor flags hang on all four walls, indicating tonight's protagonists.

The little wizards were also very excited and kept discussing how exciting the duel would be for a while.

During this waiting time, Professor McGonagall found Alvin.

"I? Commentator?"

Looking at Alvin's surprised eyes, Professor McGonagall nodded affirmatively.

"Gaunt, the duel between the two professors, will be very exciting, but many students may not understand the spells."

"Even Albus is amazed by your mastery of spells, so we all agree that you are the best fit."

Hearing Professor McGonagall say this, Alvin could only nod and take the errand.

The time quickly came to nine o'clock, and the figures of Snape and Lupin also appeared on the duel stage on time.

Snape was still in his usual bat attire, while Lupin had changed into a burgundy wizard robe.

Compared to his usual shabby one, it was better.

As referee and commentator, Professor Flitwick and Alvin stood at the bottom of the duel stage.

Casting an Amplifying Charm on himself, Alvin's voice appeared in everyone's ears.

"Good evening, classmates. I'm Alvin Gaunt, I will explain the details of the duel between the two professors today, and Professor Flitwick next to me is the referee tonight."

"Let's give a big applause to Professor Flitwick and the two professors who are about to duel!"

Immediately, the little wizards offstage responded enthusiastically, especially the Gryffindor and Slytherin academy students clapping their hands as hard as they competed.

"Gaunt!"

Professor McGonagall's head was full of black lines, and she regretted letting Alvin be the Commentator.

Hearing Professor McGonagall's reminder, Alvin also reacted.

He blamed Lee Jordan for having influenced him too much.

"Okay, without further ado, today's duel officially begins!"

After saying this, Alvin and Professor Flitwick looked at each other, took out the wand simultaneously, and released a large protective shield covering the entire duel stage.

Snape sneered at Lupin, "Now you don't have Potter's help."

Harry, in the audience, heard it raised a question mark, when did he help Professor Lupin?

Lupin did not speak. He's still under a lot of pressure right now.

They used to bully Snape casually at school, but that was also because of his group.

He knew in his heart that he was weaker than Snape.

It is thought that only Potter or Sirius has the level to compete with Snape.

Thinking of Sirius, Lupin's heart was a little sad again.

Both bow!

Flitwick reminded them.

Both of them had reluctant looks on their faces.

The moment he got up, Snape hit Lupin with three consecutive spells.

Alvin explained quickly.

"Professor Snape took the lead in launching the attack, the three spells of Reductor Curse, Disarming Charm, and Stunning Spell were released almost simultaneously!"

"Professor Snape deliberately controlled the speed of the spell, the Reductor Curse was the fastest, and it was the best choice for breaking the Shield Charm!"

"The Disarming Charm and the Stunning Spell are at the same speed, blocking the space where Professor Lupin was hiding!"

"Professor Lupin didn't show weakness either! He directly used the Shield Charm to defend against the Reductor Curse. He then used the Levitation Charm to the table to block Snape's attack."

Using the shattered table, Lupin used the Oppugno Jinx to attack Snape.

Snape, on the other hand, made his sleeve extremely hard, raised his hand to block in front of him, and blocked Lupin's attack.

"Have you seen it? The Transfiguration spell will also have a great application in duels! The two professors used the Transfiguration spell to attack and defend simultaneously!"

"So the students should also learn the Transfiguration spell well in class, which can improve your combat effectiveness!"

Professor McGonagall nodded in satisfaction after hearing Alvin's explanation.
