Elwyn watched as Harry fell into the mud, splashing water everywhere.
The rain was pouring down on Harry's face, and his arm was hanging in the air at a very strange angle. Elwyn hurriedly ran to the center of the field. He could not watch as Lockhart removed Harry's bones.
When he passed through the crowd of onlookers, Lockhart was already standing in front of Harry.
"Don't worry, leave everything to me, kids!" he said in a comforting tone. "It's just a simple spell. I've used it countless times."
As he spoke, he rolled up the sleeves of his emerald green shirt.
"N-no!" Harry said weakly.
But it was useless. Lockhart was already spinning his wand. A second later, he aimed it at Harry's arm.
It was too late to stop him. Elwyn could only take out his wand and aim it at Harry.
"Armor Protection!" he shouted.
In the next second, a red ray of light shot out from the tip of his wand. At the same time Lockhart's light blue spell hit, his spell arrived as well.
Perhaps his training had paid off, or perhaps Lockhart's magic level was too low. In any case, everyone saw Lockhart's spell bounce back.
The light blue arc drew a beautiful arc in the air and accurately hit Percy who was standing beside Lockhart.
Percy suddenly fainted. The surrounding people all sucked in a breath of cold air.
They saw Percy's left arm, which had been hit by the spell, instantly become empty. It drooped weakly like a thick, flesh-colored rubber glove.
"Oh my god, his bones are gone?!"
"Ha!" Lockhart looked equally panicked. "Yes, that's right. Sometimes things like this happen. It must be a reaction between Elwyn's Armor Spell and my spell. But don't worry. Can any of you carry him to Madam Pomfrey? She can fix it for him. "
Fred and George glared at Lockhart and carried Percy to the school hospital. Ginny followed with a pale face and tears in her eyes.
In the school hospital, Madam Pomfrey only took a second to reconnect Harry's bones. But when she saw Percy's arm, she looked unhappy.
"What did you do to him?! Poor boy, he lost all the bones in his arm. I need to regrow them now. "
"I'm sorry, Percy. I didn't expect this …" Elwyn looked dejected.
"It was just an accident, Elwyn!" Percy shook his head.
Elwyn, Harry, Hermione, and Weasley's family surrounded Percy's bed. Worry was written all over their faces. Although Gryffindor had won the Quidditch match, no one could be happy when they saw Percy's current state.
"It's all Lockhart's fault. There's something wrong with his spell," Fred said.
"You can't blame him. It's Elwyn's Armor Spell reacting with his spell." Hermione defended Lockhart.
"Everyone knows that armor will only reflect the spell back," George said.
"But …"
"Why are you still protecting Lockhart and Hermione?"
Ron said loudly. "If Harry or Percy wanted to remove the bones, they would've brought it up themselves."
"Everyone makes mistakes." Hermione's face was red. "Lockhart just wanted to help."
"He's more of a hindrance than a help. If it wasn't for Elwyn, Harry would be lying here now."
"Keep quiet, children!" Madam Pomfrey came back with a large bottle with the label 'Living Bone Spirit' on it. "You should let him rest more. It's been a tough night. Growing bones is very uncomfortable."
As she spoke, she poured out a steaming cup and passed it to Percy.
Everyone watched as Percy swallowed the Living Bone Spirit with a pained expression. He coughed repeatedly and spit flew everywhere. Ginny hurriedly fed him a few mouthfuls of water.
After Percy caught his breath, Madam Pomfrey asked them to leave immediately. Weasley's family insisted on staying a little longer to accompany Percy.
However, Madam Pomfrey did not agree to so many people staying here. In the end, Elwyn, Harry and Hermione could only return to the common breakroom.
"Don't worry, Elwyn!"
Harry patted Elwyn's shoulder. "It's not your fault. If you weren't here just now, Percy was just too unlucky. He shouldn't have been so close to Lockhart."
"Harry, Professor Lockhart only wanted to help you. The problem lies with that crazy wandering ball. Someone cast a spell on it!" Hermione said.
"But, who was it?"
"I think I know."
Elwyn pulled them to an empty Defense Against Black Magic classroom and explained, "It's the house elf, Dobby. He cast a spell on the wandering ball."
Elwyn told them what he saw. Halfway through, a green figure suddenly appeared in front of the three of them.
In the dark classroom, Dobby's two tennis ball-like eyes stared at the three of them pitifully. A tear rolled down his long, pointy nose.
"Dobby, what are you doing here?" Harry asked in surprise.
"Harry Potter returned to school," he said softly and sadly. "Dobby reminded Harry Potter time and time again. Ah, sir, why didn't you listen to Dobby's warning? Harry Potter missed the train. Why didn't he go home? "
"Wait, how did you know I missed the train?" Harry suddenly asked.
Dobby's lips trembled. His current appearance was very suspicious.
"You did it?!" Harry said slowly. "You sealed the wall and didn't let us pass!"
"That's right, sir." Dobby said, nodding furiously and flapping his two big ears. "Dobby hid at the side and waited for Harry Potter. Then he sealed the passage. After that, Dobby had to burn his hands with an iron!"
He showed the ten long fingers wrapped in bandages to the three of them.
"Why did you burn your hands with an iron?" Hermione asked in surprise.
"Because Dobby wanted to punish himself. But Dobby didn't care. Dobby thought that Harry Potter would be safe now. Dobby never dreamed that Harry Potter and his friend would actually take another route to school!"
He shook his body back and forth, his ugly big head swaying non-stop. This made Elwyn doubt his intelligence.
"Dobby heard that Harry Potter had returned to Hogwarts. He was so shocked that he burned the master's dinner! What a terrible whipping. Dobby has never experienced it before, sir. "
"You almost caused Elwyn, Ron, and I to be expelled!" Harry said angrily. "You'd better disappear quickly before I strangle you to death."
"Dobby doesn't care!" Dobby smiled faintly. "Dobby is used to the threat of death. Dobby hears it five times a day at home."
"Wait, who's threatening you?" Hermione frowned.
"Dobby can't say the master's name." Dobby shook his head. "Dobby can't reveal the master's secrets."
He used the corner of the dirty pillowcase he was wearing to blow his nose. He looked very pitiful.
"Alright, why are you wearing this, Dobby?" Harry asked curiously. He didn't look as angry as before.
"This symbolizes the slave status of a house-elf!" Dobby pulled the pillowcase.
"Slave?!" Hermione's frown deepened.
