Chapter 56

"What is your name, anyway?"

She was giving this guy one more chance.

"Get out of the way!"

Darren's angry roar came.

Betty froze on the spot.

The nobility of the Greengrass family had actually received such an answer from that little brat.

Betty clenched her fists.

Her eyes were cold.

She wanted to turn and leave.

However, a body blocked her path.

And... a green light shot out by that guy wearing a black robe and covering himself with a hood.

"Avada Kedavra!"

"You..."

Betty opened her eyes wide.

While shocked, she hugged the body in her arms and pointed her wand at the black-robed figure.

"Stupefy!"

"Incendio!"

"Crucio!"

"Petrificus Totalus!"

"..."

Betty held Darren with one hand and held her wand with the other, constantly shooting spells at the black-robed figure.

Darren watched this scene, feeling all the hair on his body stand up.

Mom, luckily Betty hadn't been prepared to attack him just now.

This was simply a one-sided slaughter!

In an instant, the black-robed figure was wailing and fell to the ground, motionless.

He didn't know if he was dead or alive.

Betty approached cautiously and used her wand to lift the hood.

Revealing a pale and thin face under the hood.

This was a man's face.

It looked like he hadn't seen the sun for a long time.

"Who are you?"

Betty stared closely at the man's eyes.

The man remained silent, not saying a word.

"Pfft, just a coward!"

Betty stood up arrogantly, pointed her wand at the man, and chanted coldly: "Stupefy, Stupefy, Stupefy!"

Useful spells are chanted three times.

Darren even doubted if this man would ever wake up again.

After finishing the spell on the man, Betty fired a beam of light into the sky.

She should be notifying her family.

"You... are you okay?"

Betty frowned and looked at Darren.

There was a hint of indescribable emotion in her eyes.

She didn't know what she felt for Darren either.

Just now, when she saw Darren block the Killing Curse for her, she only thought of getting revenge for him in her shock.

But she hadn't expected that he didn't die.

Was Darren special, or was this a conspiracy?

Darren naturally saw her suspicious gaze.

He snorted coldly and struggled to squeeze out from her chest.

"Don't be narcissistic. I was planning to run just now, but I ran too slow and accidentally blocked the spell for you. I would never help you pure-blood supremacist people!"

【Ding, quest completed. Congratulations to the host for gaining one Bloodline Draw.】

Darren curiously accepted this reward and pondered how to leave here as soon as possible.

He just remembered that he had forgotten Pachy at Flourish and Blotts; he should go back and take Pachy away.

It was fortunate that Pachy wasn't here.

Otherwise, his actions just now would have scared Pachy to death.

Betty looked at the little brat preparing to leave, pursed her lips, and felt that this little brat was a bit stupid.

Who blocks in front of others when running slow?

And she was the eldest daughter of the Greengrass family; if someone really accidentally blocked a spell for her, they should find a way to make her think he did it on purpose.

Instead of being like this little brat in front of her, full of resistance, wishing he could clear all ties with her.

It seemed this little brat really hated her.

But, even if he hated her, he would still desperately come to block a spell for her. This... was he an idiot?

Betty mocked him coldly in her heart.

If she did such a thing, the Greengrass family would disown her, right?

What an annoying Mudblood little brat!

"The Greengrass family will not forget your contribution. This is my Gringotts key.

There are thirty thousand Galleons inside, which counts as part of your reward. I hope you won't tell anyone about what happened today!"

Betty lifted her chin.

She just felt a bit embarrassed in her heart.

If she hadn't spent Galleons recklessly before, she could probably have saved up over a hundred thousand Galleons by now.

Instead of taking out this mere thirty thousand Galleons and pretending to be generous while handing it to this little brat.

Shit!

How embarrassing!

If this little brat told others that she, a Greengrass, only gave this many Galleons to buy her life, her reputation would be completely ruined at Hogwarts.

"Also, you, come with me to St. Mungo's in a while.

Of course, you, this Mudblood... little brat, might not know what St. Mungo's is, but I believe you'll know once you go there!"

Betty huffed arrogantly.

With her palm facing up, she extended her hand toward Darren again.

This was the last time the eldest daughter of the Greengrass family would lower her status for someone.

It was only because of his life-saving grace.

"Hurry up, I want to Apparate. How can we go without holding hands? Dawdling, do you think you're Harry Potter just because you survived a Killing Curse?

Be careful of dying here suddenly and making your parents sad to death!"
