As Vizet returned from the Map Chamber and passed the window in the second-floor corridor, he heard the sounds of an argument coming from outside.
Durmstrang's Magical Ship was docked on the Black Lake, and through this window, he could just see the side of the ship closest to the shore.
The Magical Ship kept rocking, its movements irregular, and there was a constant splashing sound. It must have been under attack by something.
Vizet had only just come into contact with the lights and shadows of those aquatic creatures at the bottom of the Black Lake in the "Shadow World," so now that he had run into something like this, his interest was naturally piqued.
According to the deductions he had just made, the real world, the "Shadow World," and the "Otherworld" could influence one another;
That also meant the attack on Durmstrang's Magical Ship might have been connected to his magical experiment in the "Shadow World."
Vizet walked to the lakeshore on the other side. From this angle, he could see the other side of the Magical Ship.
Quite a few Grindylows had gathered on the other side of the Magical Ship;
Their skin was the dark green of waterweed, several sharp little horns protruded from the tops of their heads, and with half their bodies submerged in the lake, they were trying to push the Magical Ship over.
A dozen or so Durmstrang students had gathered on the deck. They raised the Wands in their hands and cast all kinds of magic, trying to attack the Grindylows.
Only, whenever the Durmstrang students cast spells, strange cries rang out;
Those cries came from the Merpeople farther away. They kept opening and closing mouths full of sharp teeth, issuing orders to the Grindylows and telling them to dodge
