Katelyle flew over the mountain and arrived above a small hillside a kilometer away.
On that hillside, three people hid beneath the rocks, not daring to look at Katelyle or make the slightest sound for fear of being discovered.
The three hiding there were Heidi, David, and Maiding Johnson, the principal figures directing the Death Eaters from behind the scenes.
In fact, with the Disillusionment Charm cast on them, no one could see the three as long as they neither spoke nor moved.
When Katelyle headed toward them, Heidi and the others were frightened and nervous.
Katelyle had shown overwhelming strength, dealing with even the Black Demon Dragon so easily.
Naturally, they did not want to fight him.
Yet Katelyle hovered right above their heads, looking down at them with amusement.
"How long are you going to hide?"
"Or do you think I'm blind and can't see you?"
Hearing Katelyle's words, Heidi and the others exchanged glances, but remained silent and motionless.
Deep down, they still clung to a sliver of hope.
Katelyle looked at the three, raised his wand, and aimed it at them.
"Avada Kedavra!"
Unable to suppress his fear, David launched the first attack as soon as Katelyle raised his wand.
"Stupefy!"
"Cruciatus Curse!"
After David struck, Heidi and Maiding Johnson swiftly followed suit.
As the three dangerous spells hurtled toward him, a Light Shield appeared directly in front of Katelyle and blocked them all.
Seeing this, David immediately used Apparition to escape.
Bang!
David shot away like a golf ball, struck a wall, and bounced back.
Heidi and Maiding Johnson stared at David as he rebounded, stunned.
What was going on?
Was this an act?
"Go on, run. Why aren't you running anymore?"
Katelyle smiled at the utterly bewildered David as he spoke.
"What's going on?"
