If Black hadn't shoved her, she might already have been sent flying by that monster!
"Tch!"
Black looked unhappily in the direction the Concealment Monster had charged off.
Hermione's emotion had originally been anger at him for pushing her down.
But...
Before the system even had time to draw a Treasure Chest, Hermione's emotion shifted into fear of the Concealment Monster.
Treasure Chest acquisition failed...
"I'll handle it," Black said calmly.
"But... you're a Muggle. How could you possibly deal with that kind of monster?"
"I don't know what you mean by Muggle, but I can deal with it..."
Hermione still wanted to say something.
But in the next second, her eyes widened again.
Under Hermione's shocked gaze, countless motes of sand and dust slowly floated up!
And all of them gathered around Black!
"You... so you're a wizard too?"
"Ding! The system has detected shock."
"Ding! Treasure Chest draw failed."
Black glanced at Hermione strangely.
He seemed utterly puzzled by the term wizard.
Hermione felt a little odd.
"He doesn't know what a wizard is?"
"Could it be... he's just like I was before, and still doesn't know he's a wizard?"
In truth, Hermione didn't know.
Black's strange look wasn't because he was puzzled by the term wizard.
It was because...
he was wondering why Hermione hadn't dropped anything this time!
Trash system!
After that, Black paid Hermione no more attention.
He devoted himself fully to dealing with that Concealment Monster.
"Scatter!"
Black said softly.
The moment the word left his mouth, all the dust immediately spread out in every direction!
Hermione was completely baffled by this.
Even if Black was a wizard too, logically, he should have been about the same as her.
How could he possibly handle this kind of monster?
Besides...
even if he could make all this dust float up, what use was that?
Could it be that monster was a clean freak afraid of dust?!
Would it not dare come over once it saw dust?
Just as Hermione's thoughts were running wild, the answer quietly revealed itself...
As the dust dispersed everywhere, five meters in front of Black, the dust condensed in the air into the blurry outline of a monster!
"Got you!" Black said excitedly.
The moment the sand touched the Concealment Monster's body, Black's magic stuck it firmly to the creature!
Dust clung to the Concealment Monster's body.
As a result, the Concealment Monster's invisibility skill was basically nullified!
Hermione stared in surprise at the monster's outline.
"Using dust to reveal the monster?"
"So... magic can be used like this?"
Hermione finally understood why Black had scattered the dust.
"But... what spell is this?"
Hermione thought back through her textbooks.
There didn't seem to be any spell that could stick dust to a monster's body...
Because so much dust had hit it in the face, the Concealment Monster sneezed twice in a row.
It glared furiously at Black.
Clearly, Black's way of "toying" with it
had made it very angry!
Boom!
The Concealment Monster lunged again!
Because of the dust, Hermione could now clearly see the monster's movements.
It was charging quickly at Black!
At that speed...
if Black didn't dodge, he would definitely be knocked down!
If that happened, even if he didn't die, he would be badly injured!
"Dodge, quickly!"
Hermione warned him urgently.
However, Black still stood where he was without moving.
He only raised his right hand lightly.
"Rise!"
The instant the word left his mouth, Crack!
On the path the Concealment Monster had to take, dozens of thick, sharp, and sturdy earth spikes suddenly rose up!
Caught completely off guard, the Concealment Monster had no time to react.
It stepped right onto them!
"Roar!"
Its agonized scream echoed into the sky!
The Concealment Monster's right foot had actually been pierced straight through!
The intense pain
completely scattered the Concealment Monster's focus.
It could no longer maintain even the invisibility skill it had been keeping up the whole time.
"This..."
Hermione sat slumped on the ground to one side, staring dumbfounded at the scene before her.
She even forgot to get up.
A moment ago, she had thought Black had been scared stiff.
But... she hadn't expected...
he had merely lifted his hand lightly.
That was enough to leave the monster so badly wounded!
"But... what kind of magic is this?"
Hermione murmured to herself.
At the same time, the Concealment Monster's hideous face
was completely exposed before Black and Hermione.
Hermione stared in terror at the savage-looking monster.
She felt a fear unlike anything she had ever known...
Brave as she was, she was still only an eleven-year-old child.
Naturally, her mentality could not compare with an old hand like Black.
The Concealment Monster yanked the earth spike out of the sole of its foot.
It staggered to its feet with a limp.
From this moment on, the speed it had prided itself on
had also been broken by Black!
Black looked calmly at the Concealment Monster.
He had long expected this scene.
He had run earlier because he had not had enough magic power.
When his magic power was insufficient, even if he conjured earth spikes,
