Rubik’s Cube of Heavens

Chapter 142: Snatching Time

Professor Lockhart was still introducing Snape as his assistant to the duel. He said that Snape would help him demonstrate the usage of the spell, 'Expelliarmus'.

As a result, Snape did not give him any face at all. Instead, he asked Coven to go on stage and demonstrate the duel with Professor Lockhart.

Seeing this, Professor Lockhart could not help but be a little stunned. He looked at Snape with great surprise and said, "This... I thought we..."

"Coven Quinn." Snape stood below the stage and said indifferently, "He is the recipient of the Second Rank medal of Order of Merlin."

Obviously, Snape understood Lockhart very well. Just one sentence was enough.

Sure enough, after listening to Snape, Professor Lockhart's eyes almost shone.

It must be known that he had pursued fame until now and barely managed to get a level three medal.

Therefore, Professor Lockhart changed his face in a second, revealed a big smile, and quickly rushed to Coven.

With a warm smile on his face, Professor Lockhart pulled Coven over and introduced him to the students below. "That's right! Mr. Coven Quinn! The winner of the Order of Merlin's second rank medal! My fellow student on the path of life! My friend!"

"I'm sorry, Professor." Coven exerted a bit of strength and broke free from the other party's embrace. He said with a fake smile, "Can we start now? I still have many things to do."

Professor Lockhart was stunned again, but he immediately reacted. He still maintained his so-called most charming smile and said in a loud voice, "Of course! Everyone should know that the reason why we are able to achieve such achievements is naturally because of our constant efforts!"

After pasting gold on his face again, Professor Lockhart patted Coven on the shoulder and said with a kind look, "Come on, my partner! Let's give everyone a wonderful demonstration."

"Ah, right, everyone, don't worry." Professor Lockhart put one hand on his waist and confidently said to the students below the stage, "After the demonstration, I promise to return the safe and sound student Coven to you. Believe me; I will act appropriately."

Snape was fed up with Lockhart's nagging, so he suddenly said, "Get ready to start! I will be your referee!"

"Ah, of course! Thank you very much." Professor Lockhart was forced to stop.

Snape walked to the center of the stage and then signaled Coven and Lockhart to get ready.

On the stage, Coven and Lockhart stood one meter apart, and then according to the duel procedure, they took out their wands and bowed in front of them.

After bowing to each other, the two of them turned at the same time, took five steps each, and turned back again, ready for the duel.

Professor Lockhart put one hand on his waist, raised his wand in front of him, and pointed it upwards, his feet bought a bow step, and at a glance, he was a layman who could only be handsome.

Coven, on the other hand, did not have so many fancy tricks. His left hand naturally drooped, and his right hand pointed his wand forward.

Off the stage, Snape saw that the two were ready, and then he said, "Listen well, I will count to one, two, and three, and then you can cast spells."

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

"Expelliarmus!"

The duel had to chant the spell, and the wand's movement had to be standard.

Coven reacted quickly. As soon as Snape finished his sentence, he extended his wand slightly and chanted the spell quickly and clearly.

A magic ray suddenly shot out and crossed a distance of nearly ten meters in an instant. At the same time as Lockhart chanted the word 'Expel-', it hit the opponent's chest.

This kind of 'target' spell, if it did not hit the target, could only cause the effect of repelling or flying.

Coven was a little tired of Lockhart's previous shameless behavior, so he deliberately did not aim at the opponent's wand but aimed at the opponent's chest.

Therefore, after Lockhart was hit, he couldn't help but exclaim and instantly flew backward.

After crossing several meters, the effect of the magic spell on his body disappeared, and he began to fall down.

With a muffled bang, Professor Lockhart fell to the ground, and the dueling platform shook slightly. Even his buttocks bounced twice.

At a loss.

Professor Lockhart sat there, looking confused as if he did not know what had happened.

"Pfft..."

"Huff..."

"Hahahaha..."

First, there were a few stifled laughs. Then it was unknown who took the lead. The surrounding students suddenly burst into laughter.

The laughter caused Professor Lockhart to return to his soul. He quickly stood up, squeezed out an awkward smile on his face, and spoke loudly, suppressing the laughter around him. "Alright, everyone stops!"

After all, he was a professor, so the students had to give him some face and suppress the laughter.

When Lockhart saw this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Then, he immediately said loudly, "I'm sorry to let everyone see my sorry appearance, but I have to explain it!"

He spread his hands and pointed at Coven. "I said before that I would demonstrate the usage of your weapon. This time, Mr. Quinn's casting was wrong! He did not hit my wand!"

"Of course!" Lockhart continued to say, "Mr. Quinn's attack was in the nick of time. Otherwise, according to the standard time, I could easily defend against the attack just now! I didn't expect Mr. Quinn to break the rules, so I was unexpectedly put in a sorry state by the spell."

Below the stage, many people listened to Lockhart's explanation. After all, it was still reasonable.

Of course, some people still didn't listen to Lockhart's explanation. Many people who had been staring at Coven clearly knew that Coven didn't fight for it, and there was no sign of any foul at all.

At this time, Snape spoke again, "As the referee, I will listen to your explanation. From this, I declare that there will be another duel."

Lockhart's smiling face froze slightly, and then his eyes turned, and he smiled with a calm look, "No problem! I can easily see through Mr. Quinn's movements. I will take precautions this time."

"Two duelers, come forward." Snape ignored the other and raised his voice to command.

Once again, they stood opposite each other. Lockhart looked at Coven and smiled. "Remember to aim at your opponent's wand. Don't make a mistake this time."

Coven also ignored him and raised his wand to salute him.

Lockhart was a little caught off guard and hurriedly bowed.

Turning around, the two of them stepped back to distance themselves, then stood still and turned around, putting on a posture.

This time, Lockhart learned his lesson, so he did not put on any good posture, but Coven still did the same action as before.

"One!"

"Two!"

"Expelliarmus!"

"Three!"

This time, Lockhart suddenly took a step forward before Snape could finish the two words. He waved his wand and fired a magic ray at Coven's chest...
