Chapter 384: How to Take Down a Giant
"Aaaaah!" Draco began to scream as the pain from before grew more severe.
"What's happening to him?" Amycus glanced at Draco in concern.
"That witch is using blood magic. We have to help him before it's too late," Alecto said, pointing her wand at Daphne.
"Avada Kedav—ahh!" She felt a sharp pain shoot through her hand, forcing her to drop her wand, and she then saw the blood dripping from her palm.
"Don't interfere. Those two have something to settle," Harry said, having cast a piercing charm on Alecto's hand.
"Grom! Kill that boy!" Amycus gave the order to the giant immediately. Neither he nor his sister recognized Harry, assuming he was just another Hogwarts student not worth their attention.
But now it was clear that had been a mistake.
"That boy..." Alecto clutched her wounded hand, staring at Harry. She hadn't even seen him move or speak to cast a spell, it was as if the magic had come from nowhere.
Meanwhile, as Daphne continued her fight, the giant, Grom, obeyed Amycus's command. The creature leaned forward and lifted his massive foot into the air, aiming to crush Harry with all his might. The foot, larger than the average car, descended upon Harry.
Remaining calm, Harry raised his left hand, drawing a circular motion in the air. A black circle appeared above him, directly in the path of the giant's foot.
It was difficult to see clearly in the darkness of night, but all of them noticed something strange had appeared.
The giant sensed that the small wizard beneath him had done something, but he had no time to wonder what it was before his entire foot, and part of his leg, disappeared into the black hole.
From the Carrow twins' perspective, it was truly bizarre...it looked like the giant's leg had simply vanished into thin air.
Before they could guess what was happening, the foot reappeared. Except now it was above the giant's own head, carrying all the force of his intended attack.
Amycus's next words were drowned out by Draco Malfoy's blood-curdling screams.
"Aaargh! What did you do?!" Draco yelled at Daphne.
"Painful, isn't it?" she said, holding her wand in front of her.
"Argentum Gladio." The wand transformed into a silver blade.
"Stop! Get it out! Get it out of me!" he screamed.
Daphne made a sweeping gesture with the sword, sending more drops of her blood toward him.
In his panicked state, he couldn't dodge a single one, and each drop pierced his body.
Draco's screams grew louder as he collapsed, unable to control his spasms.
Daphne stepped closer to him.
"My blood is tearing you apart from the inside. Ironic, isn't it? Doing this to a vampire?"
A regular human would already be dead, but Daphne knew a vampire wouldn't die from this. She just wanted him to suffer.
"S-stop! P-please..." Draco managed to stammer as red tears streamed from his eyes.
Daphne raised her blade above his chest. Draco was now defenseless.
"Pansy had her flaws as a person...but she was my friend, and she didn't deserve to be murdered by an egotistical monster like you." She took a breath, her expression unreadable.
"I hope she can see this, somehow."
Without hesitation, she brought the blade down.
