Chapter 285: Golden Flames

"Incendio!"

"Inflamare!"Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

Several inferi were hit by the flames and would quickly be consumed by them.

But while a small number of them were taken care of, the rest continued to advance.

They could hear countless noises of the house being torn apart on the other side while they barely held the front.

Moody turned around and found James patting his robes as if he was looking for something. "Potter, we need your help here. Start firing spells at something, for fuck's sake!"

"Hold on, I think I found it. My son gave me something...."

"Incendio! Incendio!" Dawlish was desperately throwing fire at the creatures. "I can't hold them!"

One of them managed to squeeze inside.

Moody hurried and used a powerful wind spell to push it outside while fanning the flames still burning on the exterior.

This gave them a small breathing window in the front, but the inferi behind them were already inside the house.

"What now? We can't use fire inside here; we will die too!" Dawlish said.

"Leave it to me!" James tapped the wooden floor with his wand and created a robust wall in front of the door leading to the living room where they were as the creatures were trying to enter.

This blocked the only other entrance, but it also meant that they now had only one way to escape the house.

"Good one, James!" Dawlish exclaimed.

"Yes, but those guys are not that stupid, they will soon come this way," Moody said.

"I found it!" James pulled a small box from his robes.

"Nooo!" Dawlish began to feel the heat of the fire and screamed.

The flames went through their shields like they were not even there.

The light was so intense that even after closing their eyes and placing their hands on top, they could still see the golden light.

For a moment, they thought they were all going to die for sure, under the massive assault of the powerful flames.

But the heat from this golden fire never went above a comfortable warmth.

It was actually a very cozy and calming sensation, being enveloped in this strange fire.

The event only lasted for ten seconds but to them it felt like hours had passed.

When they felt the light recede, they opened their eyes with caution and looked around.

It took a bit for their eyes to adjust to the darkness of the night but when they did, they all were able to confirm that nothing was burned by the flames.

The small wooden house was still standing, the same as before. And they were also completely fine, not even a small singe on their clothes.

"What was that?!" Moody was the first one to speak.

"I thought... I was sure those flames hit me. Why aren't we burned, not even a bit?" Dawlish asked.

"I don't understand it either. The fire did nothing?" James was extremely confused at the moment. The event had been so strange that for a moment, he even forgot about the most important thing.

"I wouldn't say that it did nothing..." Moody stood up from the floor. "Can you not hear it?"

"Silence...." James finally realized.

"Where did the inferi go?" Dawlish asked.

Moody looked outside. The clearing was completely empty. "Potter... what in Merlin's balls was that thing?"
