Where's the Hogwarts Security We Were Promised?!

After Bell rushed over, what he saw was his little sister spinning someone like a top.

"Gege, did you come to beat up bad guys too?"

The moment Bell arrived, Shanna noticed her brother. The little girl relaxed considerably.

Ever since she was little, Gege had rarely restricted her from casting Curses. Even Dark Magic that made every Wizard blanch at the mention of it, such as the Killing Curse and Fiendfyre Curse, he had readily taught her.

But there was one Curse that Gege had repeatedly warned her to avoid using whenever possible.
