Chapter 325: Irritating situation

The older man looked surprised at the answer for a moment before accepting it easily as it not only explained what was happening but was entirely possible with the vast potential of magic. "I do apologize for his rude manner of speaking Mr. Delacour , you simply caught him while he was scoping out his competition." Dumbledore said with a chuckle. "Is he competing in the pageant?" the older man asked surprised since he had assumed it was Dumbledore that was participating. "Indeed he is. I dare say he has a strong chance of winning as well." the old goat said in a friendly manner.-

"As much as I would love to chat about this I should probably go and calm down my family before they do something drastic." the older Delacour man said before walking back to his family and explaining the situation. The Delacour family was a small but influential family that had their hands in quite a few French pies as one of the oldest pureblood families in France. At the moment it consisted of the grandparents with the grandmother being considered half veela by the wider world. The parents under that consisted of a single daughter and the son in law that were around the Weasley parents age.-

This meant the allure was battering against Sanar and his occlumency shields constantly like an alarm clock going off no matter how many times he hits off. As a result he was starting to lose his patience which Dumbledore was the first to notice from the barely contained magical energy he sensed. Realizing that Nick was getting close to exploding in anger Dumbledore quickly cast an isolation spell on him that cut off the allure affecting him. While this also cut Nick off from copying the magical effects of the wizard and witches magical items it still let him calm down.-

Having the allure cut off however made the Delacour women flinch slightly as the magic was intrinsically part of themselves and thus it stung to get it cut like that. The family didn't say anything however as it was fairly clear from the expression on Nick's face that they were irritating him with it. Thankfully Dumbledore didn't need to maintain the isolation charm for much longer as it was finally their turn to use the floo. Nick got hit with the allure for a brief moment again before they vanished from the ministry but he ignored it.-

'I'll need to create something to keep that magic away from me if I want to get through the next three days without incident.' Nick thought seriously as they finally stepped out of the fireplace and into Beauxbatons proper. He knew that the school was very big on style and beauty but what he was met with was frankly speaking insane. The whole room they were in as covered in woven baby blue silk and gold tapestries while the carpet was and stone was magical beast fur and marble with actual veins of gold running through it.The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.
