Chapter 130: “Feeling Lost”
A resounding bang echoed through the auditorium.
Then, an eerie silence fell over the entire space
The members of the Duel Club watched in astonishment as the events on the stage unfolded.
Their gazes shifted from the injured Draco to the bewildered Matthew, sparking a flurry of discussions and speculations.
By Merlins beard!
Professor Flitwick let out a soft exclamation, rushing off the stage to hurry toward the wall.
Professor Snape, on the other hand, cast a mildly surprised glance at Matthew before hastening to Dracos side.New novel chapters are published on
The two Professors assisted Draco as he struggled to rise.
Mr. Malfoy, are you alright? Professor Flitwicks voice carried deep concern, though Draco was already unconscious and unresponsive at this point.
Its just a Disarming Charm. The injury isnt severe, Professor Flitwick assessed quickly. However, the impact of hitting the wall and the bleeding are concerning.
Take care of the rest of the students, Professor Flitwick, Professor Snape made a swift decision. Ill take this young man to the school hospital.
Very well, Professor Flitwick nodded. Be cautious on your way.
With Draco cradled in his arms, Professor Snape strode away, parting the crowd with ease.
Matthew stood on the stage, flabbergasted.
As Draco collided with the wall, the intense negative emotions that had possessed him suddenly vanished, and his consciousness returned. It was as if the previous events in his mind had never transpired.
Only the faint traces of blood on the walls edge served as a reminder.
What just happened?
Who am I?
Whats going on?
His mind was a jumble of confusion.
He glanced down at the black walnut wand in his left hand.
After all, Matthew had demonstrated proficiency in various subjects over the past year.
In contrast, many students cast envious glances at Matthew, unaware of the turmoil he had experienced.
The Duel Club practice resumed.
There were a couple of instances, similar to Matthews, where students hit the wall.
Professor Flitwick, however, was now prepared.
He reacted swiftly, preventing the students from crashing into the wall and instead guiding them to a controlled halt.
Furthermore, Professor Snape, who had escorted Malfoy to the school hospital, didnt reappear.
Though not needed for the current practice, his absence was noted.
As the collective practice session concluded, pairs of students resumed their two-on-two drills across the auditorium.
When Professor Flitwick paired Matthew with a new partner, Theodore, the latter vehemently shook his head, avoiding Matthew with palpable apprehension.
Eventually, Matthew found himself partnered with Spinnett, a fourth-year Gryffindor.
How did you do that? She asked with keen interest. Can you show me?
Im sorry Matthew managed a wry smile. I dont really know how I did it
Alright, Miss Spinnett shook her head with mild disappointment. Lets just carry on!
Expelliarmus!
After injuring Draco, Matthew struggled to ask Professor Flitwick about his strange experience.
The abrupt loss of control over his body wasnt pleasant, and he was eager for answers.
However, with the auditorium filled with students, discussing the matter with Professor Flitwick privately and discreetly proved challenging.
As Professor Flitwick concluded the days practice and dismissed everyone.
Matthew contemplated approaching the professor, but he realized that Professor Flitwick had already departed, his figure no longer visible.
With a dejected sigh, Matthew exited the auditorium, pondering whether he should visit Draco in the school hospital.
