Sword Saint Hermione
The Romanian Longhorn charged forward, its speed increasing steadily, accompanied by muffled thuds and kicking up clouds of dust.
Its golden horns are thick, long, and sharp, curving into two astonishing arcs. Its entire body is covered in dark green scales, and its shoulders and back are high and swollen like tumors, covered with many sharp spikes.
The mere sight of Romanian Longhorn standing there is enough to send shivers down your spine.
Moreover, when running at full speed, it's like a torrent capable of destroying mountains.
Countless people screamed.
Many young women also wore sunglasses, and the dragon trainer was ready to Apparition at any moment... to save the witch who seemed to be terrified.
Hermione simply stood quietly in place, bringing her two fingers together and running them over the Safety Watch on her arm.
She could still feel a trace of warmth.
When they were less than ten meters apart, the airflow generated by the fire dragon had already made Hermione's bangs flutter wildly.
She brushed her bangs aside, then suddenly swung her wand in her right hand and shouted, "Confringo!"
A crack several meters long was blasted into the ground.
The Peruvian Vipertooth, weighing several tons, was at its maximum speed. It didn't even have time to leap; one of its claws stepped on the crack as if it were stepping on a swamp, and it immediately sank in.
The immense inertia caused it to slide and kneel on the ground.
Its massive body carved a deep trench into the ground, continuing to press towards Hermione on one side.
Even as it lay on the ground, the Peruvian Vipertooth still opened its mouth and exhaled its breath, which surged forth like an orange wave, burning fiercely.
Snap!
Hermione vanished from her spot and reappeared behind the dragon.
"Merlin, it's Apparition!" Li exclaimed quickly, ignoring his inner shock.
"I remember Granger was only in fourth grade!"
A suppressed murmur of discussion arose from the audience.
The school offers Apparition Class, but only adult wizards can enroll.
Moreover, even among adult wizards, many are unable to learn Apparition.
Hermione, a fourth-grader, had already mastered it and used it in actual combat... that's truly astonishing.
However, considering what she has done, it makes perfect sense.
Hermione paid no attention to the audience and immediately drew the Goblin sword from the Safety Watch.
With a wand in her right hand and a sword in her left, she charged straight toward the fire dragon amidst the uproar of the crowd.
Dumbledore looked slightly dazed; judging by the fighting style alone, he had thought it was William who was fighting.
Clearly, Hermione was deeply influenced by William, bearing his imprint both inside and out.
In fact, Hermione's decision at this moment may seem crazy, but it is undoubtedly correct.
The fire dragon's area-of-effect (AOE) range is too wide, and its breath damage is incomparable to that of ordinary magic.
To attempt a long-range attack against it would be foolish.
At that moment, the fire dragon crashed into the wall, causing the smoke and dust to linger, providing a perfect opportunity to approach in the chaos.
But Hermione underestimated the Romanian Longhorn's tough hide; the fall... didn't have much of an effect on it.
It turned its head warily, even though it couldn't see the distance, it could still see a trail of dragon breath.
Seven or eight clusters of orange flames, like arrows released from a bow, swiftly broke through the smoke and dust, indiscriminately hurtling towards Hermione's location.
Hermione twisted her wand and shoved it forward.
A sandstorm raged in front of him, and many pebbles on the ground were forcibly pulled up by the magic and shot towards the flames.
The rubble slightly slowed the flames' advance, and Hermione immediately retreated.
The flying stones only provided temporary relief; they were ultimately insufficient to solve the immediate problem.
But the brief moment she gained was enough for her to cast an even more powerful spell.
She chanted an incantation, her wand trembled slightly, and a magical wind blade shot out.
As the fireball, carrying rocks, crashed down, it was instantly sliced apart by the wind blades.
Hermione suddenly raised her wand again, holding it at the front, and shouted, "Finite Incantatem!"
A fan-shaped red mirror obscured her view.
The flames pierced the mirror like sharp needles.
Hermione pressed her wand down, and the fireball shattered instantly, exploding in all directions.
She resembled Wonder Woman wielding a shield, the mirror in her hand constantly deflecting fireballs.
And she herself is getting closer and closer to the Romanian Longhorn.
As the smoke and dust completely dissipated, the Romanian Longhorn was finally able to see clearly ahead. It opened its mouth and its throat heaved.
This time it wasn't a fireball, but a scorching wave of fire that instantly engulfed everything!
With a snap, Hermione vanished from her spot and Apparition onto the dragon's head.
She gripped the longsword with both hands, intending to thrust it downwards.
The Romanian Longhorn lowered its head violently, causing Hermione to stagger forward. The sword, tilted, struck the golden horn.
The sword crafted by Goblin can pierce even the scales of a fire dragon, let alone its horns.
With a bang.
The dragon's horn broke off mid-air and flew away.
It wasn't just the dragon horns that flew off, but Hermione's too. She was flung away violently, and a trail of crimson blood appeared on the longsword beside her.
The fire dragon roared in pain as its tail lashed out from the air.
The tail, with its barbs at the end, slammed towards Hermione's head with lightning speed.
She raised her wand and shouted, "Levicorpus!"
The girl, who was falling, suddenly stopped and began to hang upside down even higher.
She and that tail brushed past each other in a flash. But her hair, which had been styled in a bun for ease of fighting, was also completely shattered.
Another spell was fired, the Conjunctivitis Curse striking the fire dragon's eye precisely, stopping its further attack.
Hermione landed back on the ground, her hair disheveled, and she plunged the longsword into the ground, biting her wand with her teeth.
She tore at her ripped long sleeve, pulled out a strip of cloth, tied it into a knot to make a rope, and used it to tie up her messy long hair.
The girl reached out a hand, grasped the hilt of the sword, and pulled it from the ground.
Snap!
She vanished from her Apparition an instant, reappearing on the back of a fire dragon that had fallen to the ground due to Conjunctivitis Curse.
With her long sword in hand, she charged forward relentlessly, slashing fiercely at the dragon scales that covered her flesh, no matter how thick and tough they were.
The longsword clashed with the dragon scales, sparking a shower of sparks. Then, a crack appeared where the longsword had passed, and blood began to seep out.
The fire dragon roared and spread its wings to fly high, twisting in mid-air and spewing flames wildly, trying to throw the person on its back off.
But the sword pierced its back, deeper and deeper. The little insect, gripping the hilt, refused to let go.
The fire dragon finally plummeted downwards, crashing violently to the ground. Circles of dust rose around it.
The audience was completely silent, and Lee Jordan's mouth was agape, forgetting to give his commentary.
Professor McGonagall did not urge her, as she was also in a daze.
The judges on the panel displayed a variety of expressions, making for a truly fascinating scene.
Dumbledore sip of hot tea and then wrapped his robe tighter around himself.
It's getting cold.
It's that time of year again when we need to wear wool socks.
In the audience, William pulled his reddened arms out of Anne and Gabrielle's arms respectively.
He held his head in his hands, leaned back comfortably in his chair, looked up at the sky, and whistled a melodious tune.
Anne felt the name sounded familiar.
She suddenly remembered that it was an unknown Scotland tune that Hermione loved to hum.
