Chapter 160: Patronus Charm

When the Dementor entered the compartment, the temperature instantly dropped to freezing.

It took a gentle breath as if sucking something other than air.

Arthur's face darkened. He thought this was just a routine search by the Dementors.

But they were pushing the boundaries. Not only did it enter the room, but it also wanted to feed on their emotions as food.

"Mom..."

At this moment, Arthhur's anger grew quickly when he heard Luna's voice, which sounded like tears.

The young witch crouched in the corner of her seat and cried.

Arthur stood up with a swoosh. At the same time, a silver silk robe appeared around him.

He walked directly towards the Dementor. Raised his hand, he clenched his fist and punched the Dementor's hooded head.

Dementors were usually wraithlike, but it seemed to suffer massive pain. It was instantly knocked away and crashed outside the compartment.

Arthur took a step forward, and his silver silk robe began to take shape. Then, a faint and quick phoenix's shadow appeared behind him.

As Arthur's hand touched it, the Dementor's black robe broke apart layer by layer, and the hood slowly fell off, showing an ugly face.

"Stop!"

An urgent voice came from beside him, but Arthur paid no attention.

He kept choking the Dementor, which let out a silent wail and slowly dissipated into thin air.

"Hmph!"

After doing all this, Arthur finally pulled his arm back and shook it hard as if he had touched something disgusting.

The silk robe on him also slowly dissipated. He glanced at the person who had tried to stop him earlier.

It was a middle-aged wizard with a pale face, wearing worn-out robes. Arthur knew him as Lupin.

Without saying a word, Arthur turned back to the compartment to check on Luna's condition.

Hermione and Autumn, although still looking pale, felt much better now that the Dementor was gone.

But Luna remained curled up in the corner, burying her head in her arms.

Arthur walked beside Luna and gently embraced the young witch, warming her with his own body heat.

Luna felt his presence and held onto him tightly.

"Arthur, I-I saw my mom," Luna whispered.

Patting the young witch's back, Arthur comforted her, saying, "It's okay, it's all over now."

Luna didn't speak but just snuggled closer into his embrace.

"What was that just now? It reminded me of not getting first place in the elementary school social science quiz. It felt terrible,"

Hermione asked Arthur, before he could respond, Cho answered.

"That was a Dementor, usually used to guard the most dangerous criminals in Azkaban. I don't know why they would appear here."

At that moment, Lupin entered and handed Arthur a piece of chocolate.

"Give her some chocolate, sweets always bring happiness," he said.

Arthur accepted it gratefully.

With a thought, Furry appeared in the compartment along with a burst of fire and sang a few notes.

The song of the phoenix brought courage and hope.

Instantly, everyone felt much better, and even Luna slowly recovered, sitting up slightly shyly in Arthur's embrace.

However, the traces of tears on her face still broke Arthur's heart.

"I didn't expect you to have a phoenix," Lupin sighed, then continued, "But you were too impulsive just now. Driving it away would have been enough; you didn't have to go for the kill. The Ministry of Magic will give you trouble for this."

[Note: you can destroy individual Dementors, but you can't get rid of the phenomenon of Dementors forever.]

Arthur sneered after hearing that. The Ministry of Magic causing him trouble?

It would be the Ministry of Magic's lucky day if he didn't cause them trouble.

The Dementors outside the train could also feel the disappearance of their friend's presence.

Shadows passed through the night sky, floating towards the compartments.

Arthur also sensed all of this, and his anger which had lowered a bit, came back.

"Professor, could you please take care of them for me."

Arthur handed Luna over to Hermione and the others nearby, and told Lupin, then left the compartment with Furry.

By this time, many young wizards had come out of the compartment, and their faces turned pale at the sight of the shadows outside.

Arthur glanced at the crowd and took out his wand.

"Expecto Patronum."

As Arthur uttered the spell, a silver phoenix and a unicorn burst out from his wand tip.

Their size was so big that even Lupin was amazed.

"Furry, you go too, teach them a lesson."

Feeling his master's anger, Furry spread her wings and flew out of the train, her whole body burning with golden fire, rushing towards the Dementors.

The two phoenixes and the unicorn ran through the group of Dementors, and any Dementor they touched caught fire in gold or silver flames.

In just a few seconds, five or six Dementors had dissipated into thin air.

The remaining Dementors weren't fools, they couldn't stay in one place and be killed by Arthur.

They scattered and fled, deciding to go to the Ministry of Magic wizards to report the situation.

This was too hard!

It was just a routine check, how did so many brothers get sacrificed?

Many Dementors were already regretting leaving for Azkaban.

The other young wizards who witnessed this scene were also dumbfounded.

He has a phoenix and two Patronus and driving away a large group of Dementors.

Even though everyone had developed some immunity to Arthur's abnormality, they were still shocked.

After seeing the Dementors fleeing in all directions, the frustration in Arthur's heart dissipated by half, and he then withdrew the spell and entered the compartment.

"Um, there's another student next door who collapsed, so I won't stay here for now."

Lupin's legs were a bit weak at this point, Arthur's performance scared him, and he felt it was best not to stay here.

If Arthur were to discover his werewolf identity later, he wouldn't be able to escape.

Lupin deeply regretted agreeing to become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, could he still run now?

Arthur didn't think much about it. He smiled kindly at Lupin.

"Thank you for the chocolate earlier."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. But the Ministry of Magic will definitely come looking for you later, so... be more restrained."

Lupin wanted to warn Arthur to be more careful, but then he remembered the fighting strength the other had just shown.

The words changed as they reached his lips.
