Chapter 186: Sir Nicholas Never Lies

Chapter 186: Sir Nicholas Never Lies

Just as Scabior let the owl out, Jon and the others reached the stairway to the second floor.

The entire first floor had been searched by Nick first, there was no longer any other person or creature in, and now they just had to concentrate on the one Auror upstairs.

Jon held up his wand, poked his head out of the cloak of invisibility, and gave a wink to Nick, who drifted towards the second floor with a quick understanding.

At this moment, Scabior is pressing his back against the wall on the same side of the door of the room, half of his face tilted to the side, his wand held in his hand with a death grip, his eyes constantly fixed on the stairs.

Without any sound of footsteps, Nick drifted silently to the second floor, a man and a ghost without any defence suddenly their eyes met!

Scabior, even if he was cautious and careful, he absolutely never expected that there would be a ghost cooperating with the people who infiltrated, and Nick shouted out the moment he saw him.

"He's spotted us! In the room right after going upstairs!"

There was nothing Scabior could do to stop him from delivering the message; the vast majority of the wizard's spells simply won't work on ghosts, and there is nothing he can do to harm Nick.

Scabior knew exactly who he should really be attacking, the one to whom this ghost was delivering the message!

A distinct footstep sounded on the wooden stairs, and he could easily hear that someone was speeding up the stairs, and from the chaotic footsteps it was clear that there was more than one.

The footsteps were getting louder and closer, but suddenly, just when Scabior felt that the people going upstairs were about to appear at the entrance of the stairs, the sound stopped abruptly, and there was still no one in front of him!

He did not hesitate, his mind has concluded that the wizard who rushed up either used a disillusionment charm on himself or cloaked in a cloak of invisibility, so he directly aimed at the narrow spot at the entrance of the stairs, his movements extremely fast from waving his wand to recite the incantation.

"Avada Kedavra!"

The first shot is a killing curse!

Even if the enemy is not visible, Scabior is not going to hold back a bit, because the people rushing upstairs must be more than one, even if it is necessary to leave one alive for interrogation, but it should come after he can survive.

And as the most powerful dark magic, the killing curse is not countered by any magic, even the shield charm is also invalid, it is the most optimal at the beginning of the battle to reduce the enemy's means!

But the green beam with deadly stillness just swept straight through the space of the stairway, hitting the wall behind, leaving a gaping hole with black smoke.

That burst of sound like glass shattering in the chaos is not significant, but it was keenly captured by Jon.

He did not stop, under the cover of dust quickly rushed up the stairs to the second floor, while Nick has been following Scabior's side, and conveyed the location to Jon and them by voice!

"He's running to the window! The shield charm on his body is gone too! Cast the spell in my direction!"

"Stupefy!"

"Expelliarmus!"

Without a moment's hesitation, Jon and Fred both swung their wands in the direction of the source as soon as they heard Nick's voice ring out!

Two bright red lights cut through the dust and shot straight in Scabior's direction.

Scabior's sick of this ghost who always follow him like skin, but there is nothing he can do.

As soon as he heard Jon and the others chanting the incantation, he took a calculated leap out of the second-floor window!

He did not have time to apply any type of cushioning magic to the ground, he could only straighten his legs to withstand the inertia of his body falling, his lower body was numb, but he did not dare to stay in place for half a moment, and turned around and ran in the direction of the castle in the middle of the island.

The dementors that used to disgust him became his only life-saving card at the moment, as long as he could enter the castle, then he can continue to fight with Jon and them, waiting for the Ministry of Magic to receive the news to rush over to support.

Floating speed can be much faster than people running with their legs, Nick has been following Scabior's side, and is constantly disturbing him with some nonsense.

"Hey, surrender man, Britain has been re-taken by us, and the dark lord is finished, now if you honestly surrender you might still be able to save your life, Sir Nicholas never lies, truly never lies."
