Soon, before Hermione could react, another cry of pain sounded...

‘!!’

'Ouch!'

However, this time, it was not the old sound that Hermione heard from the crow's beak just now, but the one she was familiar with Timmy?

When she turned around in confusion, she was shocked to find:

It turned out that at this time, a monster old man wearing a brown robe hood and holding a wooden stick in his hand was standing up in the grass on the roadside. The scream was exactly the same as the other party just used the wooden stick in his hand, knocking on the forehead of a little Timi who used a slingshot to hit a "big bird"!

‘Wow~Wow~!’

‘Sister Hermione, Brother Harry! There is a bad guy here, and he even hits me…’

Then, naturally, Timi, who was beaten by a stranger for no reason, ran back and cried loudly towards the ox cart where Hermione and others were riding.

‘!!’

‘Enemy attack!!’

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of Lordaeron who saw the abnormal situation and found that the little boy Timi was attacked responded immediately.

clang! clang! clang! clang!

The sound of sharp swords being unsheathed, and then the Lordaeron soldiers in the march quickly took off the royal badge shield on their backs, quickly formed a formation, and carefully surrounded the strange man who was ambushing and hiding in the grass for some reason and jumped out to attack the little boy Timi.

“Get out of here!”

"Tell me, stranger, who are you? And why are you hiding here?!"

At this time, after hearing the movement behind, the Paladin Davi, who was holding a heavy hammer and riding a military horse, rushed over directly. When he rushed to the old man with a hood and looked sneaky and didn't look like a good person, he grabbed the reins and stopped, and then glanced up and down at the other party, he asked sternly with some doubt.

Obviously, the leader of the Davi Paladin did not see what had just happened. He only knew that a stranger was hiding in the grass on the roadside and suddenly jumped out to attack or frighten a little boy for no reason. From this point of view, you can tell that the other party would definitely not be a good thing!

Moreover, the other party's outfit was also suspicious, which made him subconsciously sound some scumbags who made him feel very badly.

“…”

Surprisingly, the old man with a brown hooded cloak and a thick wooden stick in his hand was not in a hurry to speak. He just looked around the people around him without saying a word, and then locked in the three little wizards holding short wands that were walking over with his old but deep eyes.

Of course, compared to Harry and Furong, his eyes were more on the little witch who was about fourteen or fifteen years old.

"he……"

“!!”

"David Paladin, you have to be careful! He seems to be a wizard!!"

At this time, Hermione, who had walked closer, was stunned for a moment, quickly pulled away the crying little Timmy and signaled the other party to hide in a distance. Then she looked nervous and said to the leader of the Davi Paladin who was too close.

"What?"

"He is a wizard?!"

Sure enough, after hearing Hermione's words, Paladin Davi suddenly became nervous. While subconsciously pulling his horse back two steps, the hammer in his hand also began to burst out golden holy light...

Correspondingly, the Lordaeron heavy armored soldiers around them subconsciously raised the shields and swords in their hands a little higher. Then, more soldiers surrounded them at the same time after hearing the news, and soon surrounded the "wizard" who walked out of the grass in the middle.

“…”

"You don't have to be so nervous. I'm not here to be an enemy of you..."

The old wizard spoke, and he did not make any extra moves to avoid stimulating the nervous soldiers and allowing them to make some bad misjudgments and reactions.

"snort!"

"Then why did you hide sneakily in the grass and attack our... Little Timi?"

I turned around and looked at the little boy who was still touching his head and even with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes. I just thought it was an "attack"?

So, Davi was very puzzled, because he thought that there would be no normal person in this Kingdom of Lordaeron who would hide in the grass in order to avoid their Lordaeron's army, and would jump out and suddenly attack a little boy. Finally, he said that he was not here to be an enemy of them. What's this joke?

"well……"

The old wizard sighed, not knowing how to explain... After all, this matter is a bit difficult to speak of. Could it be that he would say: He did not hide in the grass, he just gave a little punishment to the little boy because the other party accidentally shot down his famous... the old wizard?

"David Paladin, actually..."

"Well, strictly speaking, I think it should be the first to attack this old wizard?"

At this time, after thinking about what had just happened, sorting out his thoughts, figuring out what was going on, and seeing that the old wizard in front of him did not have any great hostility, Hermione couldn't help laughing while explaining to the nervous Paladin.

"What?"

"You said he is a wizard?!"

Davi became even more nervous when he heard the Granger witch say that the old man was a wizard.

Therefore, the war hammer in his hand began to emit stronger holy light, and then began to be on full alert, and could defend or counterattack at any time... Obviously, he was now ready for the battle, and used a hidden action to signal his subordinates to quickly unfold the encirclement formation that was conducive to their battle, allowing heavy Lordaeron royal badges and shields to aim at the old wizard who was surrounded by them.

“…”

"Everyone, I really have no malice to you..."

After seeing the Paladin's nervous and guarded actions and the excessive reactions of the soldiers, the old wizard sighed again and explained patiently again.

He suddenly regretted being here so recklessly. He shouldn't let so many people see his existence, because it will only make things worse?

"or……"

"You want to fight a wizard like me?"

After saying that, the old wizard just tapped the wand in his hand, and then was surprised: a wave of unknown what was going on suddenly spreading around. Then, in an instant, everyone, including Paladin Davi, had to take several steps back and turn the originally tight encirclement into sparseness?

“!!”

"you!!"

After a long time, the Paladin Davi, who had reacted, was shocked. The war hammer in his hand burst out with a powerful holy light, and he was about to rush forward and launch a blow to the old wizard who had not known what terrible spell he had just used.

"His Excellency Davi!"

"Please wait! He had already shown mercy just now. It seemed that it was just some kind of scary spell. Maybe he really had no malice?"

Hermione, who was also affected, first looked at Harry, Furong and others before moving forward again and shouting to stop the Paladin leaders.

Because she knew that if the other party was really malicious, when all of them were blank just now, they retreated and lost their ability to resist as if they saw something terrible, the other party could attack or leave calmly.

“…”

If it were someone else, Davi Crover would definitely not listen, because he was the highest commander of the team, and he had the final say in everything here! However, when he saw the Granger witch who made a sound, he had to reach out and when he stopped his attack, he also signaled his subordinates not to act rashly.

Anyway, there are many people here now and they have more advantages. They may not be afraid of such a mere old wizard, so he is going to see what the Granger witch wants to say, or what the old wizard wants to do?

“…”

"If I read it right, you should be an Animagus, right?"

I found that the old wizard's eyes were mostly on him, and I felt that the other party might be looking for her Hermione. After thinking about it, I took a few steps forward and left the protection of the Lordaeron soldiers before I stood in front of the opposite side.

Just before the other party was shot down, it seemed that it was indeed diving towards her. Now the other party's eyes have been locking in him, so it is not difficult for Hermione to guess that the other party must have come for him.

“Animagus?”

"No! Little Witch, I'm not Animagus, I'm actually... a prophet!!"

After frowning and repeating the strange name the other party gave him, the old wizard shook his head and then told him his identity.

"ah?"

"First, Prophet? Ha! Don't lie to me, I saw it, you are an Animagus!!"

Hermione said confidently, because what she saw was that the other party was just the big crow like an eagle, and then Little Timmy gave a slingshot and hit it down! And just such a guy wanted to pretend to be a prophet in front of her Miss All-Time. Could he be dreaming, right?

You know, she has seen many Animagusians, such as 'bigfoot', 'moon face', 'worm tail' and 'sharp fork'? So, if the other party thinks that he will transform into a crow and can run to her, Hermione Granger, to pretend to be the so-called prophet, then he is very wrong!

"No! I'm not Animagus, I'm a prophet!"

Although I don’t know why the other party firmly thought that he was an ‘Animagus’, the old wizard shook his head firmly and reiterated his identity again.

Although his appearance was a bit embarrassing, he swears that it was really just an accident. He never thought that someone would attack him here, and he was also a little boy holding a strange object?

“…”

"Do you know? Among all the professors in our school, perhaps my least favorite is Professor Sybil Trilawney who pretends to be a prophet!"

"I hate divination classes, I hate everything about divination, because it makes me feel that all the knowledge I have learned is useless..."

Hermione, who was thinking of something bad, began to angrily look at the guy in front of her and was caught by a stone. She still dared to pretend to be a prophet and scolded her.

When she thinks of that divination class and prophet, Hermione feels that her IQ has been seriously insulted! Of course, the reason why she is so irritable now is probably because a little boy has exhausted all her patience just now?

"Tell me!"

"This old wizard who knows Animagus's Transformation, why are you here for?"

After holding the wand in his hand and signaling the Lordaeron soldiers around him not to be too nervous, Hermione asked the guy in front of him who thought he could be an Animagus transforming technique and wanted to pretend to be a ghost, but he dared to pretend to be a prophet.

That's right, Hermione didn't believe in the "Prophet" thing at all, because her divination class had seriously lowered her average grades, and this kind of thing was unforgivable for Hermione, the top student of "Miss All-Time"!

Therefore, even after hearing the guy in front of her who came out of nowhere, she said that he was a "prophet", she turned cold on the spot.

“…”
