Like Bell, Shanna also made a breakthrough in her mastery of Side-Along Apparition after her previous experience of Side-Along Apparition from Earth to Mars.

After all, those super-long-range Side-Along Apparition are something wizards would never experience in their entire lives. So, this level of improvement is quite normal.

I believe that once Hermione masters Side-Along Apparition, she will be able to surpass most wizards in a short period of time.

As a result, Penelope might have been able to track the residual magical fluctuations left behind after Shanna Side-Along Apparition in the past. But now, that's clearly impossible.

However, Bell did not offer Penelope an explanation. It's unlikely either of them would be in the mood to listen to his explanation anyway.

"Follow behind me."

After giving Penelope a few words of advice, Bell took Hermione's hand and disappeared into the Wooden House.

Hiding one's traces may be difficult, but leaving them behind is incredibly easy.

After a moment of spatial distortion, Bell and Hermione appeared beside a large tree.

As soon as she appeared, Hermione leaned against Bell and took a few deep breaths.

Hermione no longer reacts much to these short-range Apparitions. However, she still experiences mild dizziness and nausea to some extent.

"Hey! What time is it? You two still have the leisure to show off your love? Where's Shanna?"

As soon as the Apparition appeared, Penelope saw Bell and Hermione, who had gone ahead, embracing each other, seemingly doing something.

"It's right there."

Hermione, whose face was flushed from Penelope's teasing, let go of her and Bell raised his chin slightly forward.

Then, a delicate shout was heard, faintly coming from the direction Bell indicated.

"Mad Bear, breathe fire!"

Under Hermione and Penelope's horrified gaze, a fluffy Teddy Bear rapidly grew to 10 meters in size, then opened its mouth wide, spewing forth a torrent of scorching flames.

"No--!"

At this moment, Hermione and Penelope were devastated.

Penelope, in particular, was filled with deep regret. If only she had known then what she knows now, she would never have complained to Shanna about those things!

However, what Penelope didn't know was that even if she didn't say it, Shanna had plenty of ways to find out those things from her mind. It was simply a matter of whether Shanna was willing to do so.

But you have to understand, Shanna isn't Bell. She's a young girl who's not mature enough yet. If she's pushed to the limit, she's capable of anything.

This is why Bell is always by Shanna's side.

It's absolutely not true that he can't live without his sister! That's all lies! It's slander!

Ahem, let's get back to the main topic.

At this moment, there were several other people who were in the same state of collapse as Hermione and the other two, or even more so.

That's right, it's the Weasley family, who are being humiliated and beaten to the ground by Mad Bear!

Oh, and right, there were also the innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire— Harry and Neville.

"Where did this little girl come from? And what's that Teddy Bear? And Percy, what did you do to offend this little girl? You couldn't possibly hurt such a young girl, could you?!"

Bill Weasley, the eldest son of the Weasley family, looked at his younger brother with an expression that said "I'm a scumbag."

It was his fault as the Gege; he failed to supervise his younger brother, resulting in Percy growing into a scoundrel. He was guilty, and he repented.

But then again, is it that the British Wizarding World is changing too fast? Or is he just getting old and unable to keep up with the times? He's only been in Egypt for a few years, how come so many novel things that were never heard of before have appeared in Britain?

Even in this critical moment where life hangs in the balance, Bill couldn't help but start thinking: should he quit his job at Gringotts and go back to Britain? He'd heard that the Menethil Family was always looking for people.

"What kind of look is that! I didn't lay a hand on that wretched brat! I didn't provoke her either!"

If it weren't for the immense pressure he was under and Percy's inability to spare any attention, he would have definitely unleashed a curse on his older brother.

Is he still my brother?

"That's not necessarily true!"

At this moment, the Weasley family twins, who were watching the drama unfold with great enthusiasm as if it were New Year's Day, decisively jumped out and sabotaged their older Gege's efforts.

"That's right! You're always picking fights with other people's Gege when you're at school."

"Now that other girl's sister can't take it anymore, she's come looking for trouble with you."

"That couldn't be more normal!" *2

The twins, once again working in perfect harmony, exposed Percy's secrets.

Although the twins didn't guess correctly, they were close to the truth.

Penelope's ordeal was indeed the trigger for Shanna to teach Percy lesson, but only Shanna herself truly knows how much of it was out of sympathy for Penelope and how much was to avenge her Gege.

Watching his sons bickering in a "harmonious and loving" manner, Arthur almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

He was just about to scold these brats and make them realize the importance and urgency of the matter when he felt the pressure disappear and the flames in front of him suddenly vanished.

"Not good!"

The battle-hardened Arthur immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Get out of the way!"

After yelling at his wife and sons, Arthur used a skillful roll to dodge the claws that slashed down from above.

Seeing his tent neatly and cleanly split in two, Arthur nervously swallowed. He couldn't even care less about the fact that his only tent had been destroyed.

If that giant claw really grabbed him, Arthur doubted his Shield Charm would even last a single hit. So, he should worry about surviving today first.

Just as Arthur was bracing himself for the next attack, the giant Teddy Bear didn't even glance at him before turning and chasing after Percy in the direction he had fled.

Boom!

Mad Bear stomped on Percy.

Percy waved his Wand, barely slowing down the Mad Bear's attack, but realizing he couldn't stop it, he had no choice but to imitate his father and perform a somewhat clumsy roll.

Unfortunately, unlike the previous Cleansweep attack, this time the violent tremor of the ground interrupted Percy's roll and sent him flying into the air.

"Incarcerous!"

Seeing that he was about to die under the claws of the Mad Bear, Percy, in a moment of quick thinking, cast the Levicorpus on himself, which barely allowed him to dodge the Mad Bear's next Cleansweep attack.

"Diffindo!"

Faced with a life-threatening situation, even Percy, who had never experienced a real battle, was forced to unleash his full potential. He fired Cutting Curse precisely at Mad Bear's shoulder, attempting to sever his arm.
