Chapter 79: “The Dark Lord’s Lesson”

Sean stepped onto the stage and stood opposite him.

“Don’t be nervous, Mr. Wallup.” Tom’s voice was reassuring.

Even Sean had to admit that he had a charm that made people want to get close to him. If he hadn’t known how crazy the soul under his skin was, maybe Sean would now regard Tom as trustworthy.

Tom took a few steps back and explained to everyone, “Before the duel, both parties must salute.”

The two bowed to each other.

“Mr. Wallup, attack me with all the spells you can think of. You don’t need to worry about anything.” Tom stood with his hands behind his back, standing gracefully. Even he did not take out his wand.

“Professor, isn’t this a bad idea?” Sean looked a little bit embarrassed. He hesitated when he touched his wand.

“Oh, Mr. Wallup. Don’t worry about your spell hitting me.” Tom smiled.

“But...” Sean frowned as if he was very resistant to the matter of ‘attacking a professor’.

Tom comforted Sean, “Be confident. This kind of exercise is common in Nurmenga-“N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.

“Acupunctinternus!” When Tom’s face turned to the Nurmengard students, Sean directly raised his wand.

A barrier appeared in front of Tom, and the magic light dissipated. He turned his head and continued to smile, “Quite an attack, Mr. Wallup. When facing an enemy stronger than you, A sneak attack is the right choice, but the chants were too loud.”

Sean pouted, knowing his attack didn’t work.

“Acupunctinternus!” Without any hesitation, he continued to cast the next spell.

It still didn’t work. Tom maintained an elegant stance and pointed to Sean, “The speed of the cast is fast, but you swung your wand too much.”

The spell hit Sean, and his wand flew out.

“Now look at me and think about the outcome of this duel.” Tom raised his hand.

“I think I’ve learned a lot from this. Thank you, professor.” Sean panted, walked to the side, and picked up his wand that was blown away.

He secretly pointed to Tom, who turned to face the crowd who were about to speak.

“Acupunctinternus” He cast it silently and the spell struck Tom.

Sean didn’t look at his expression at all and jumped off the stage. Tom’s body paused for a while, and then all the students saw in horror that a black mist rose came up from him. Those mists rose rapidly and then quickly retracted into Tom’s body.

He turned around, and the smile he always showed was gone.

“Professor, thank you for your lessons.” Sean bowed as if nothing had happened.

The Nurmengard students were shocked. Tom has taught them for so many years, and this has never happened. In their eyes, this Professor, the second strongest professor in their school right before Grindelwald, was hit by a first-year Hogwarts student.

The black mist also made them curious. Tom did not explain the black mist coming out of his body. It is normal for a powerful wizard to have some secret magic.

He took a deep look at Sean and put on his smile again, “Wallup, you did well.”

“It’s an honor, professor.” Sean showed a smile.

Snape had been watching from the sidelines. He took a step forward and said coldly, “Wallup, because you attacked the professo-“

“Severus, tolerance is something that every professor should learn. As I said long ago, Wallup can do whatever he wants.” Tom waved his hand.

Snape glanced at him and continued slowly, “No point deduction, but...”

“Wallup, you will have a punishment tomorrow.”
