Chapter 790: The Battle in Godric’s Hollow
Where was Dumbledore...? Apart from Ron, everyone else had the same question in their minds. They distinctly remembered seeing Dumbledore and even speaking with him, so why had he suddenly vanished?
But aside from Kyle, no one could provide an answer.
The moment the Death Eaters appeared, Kyle tensed up immediately. He ignored Harry and Hermione’s argument, not even sparing them a glance, and instead focused intently on scanning the Death Eaters before him.
A few seconds later, he let out a small sigh of relief.
Thankfully, they were all wearing masks... A standard feature of Death Eaters. And if they were just Death Eaters, that meant the most troublesome person wasn’t here.
In that case, there was nothing to worry about.
By the time Kyle snapped back to reality, the battle had already erupted in full force. Spells flashed in every direction, and under the relentless assault, the protective enchantments around them only held for a brief moment before collapsing entirely.
Now, everyone was exposed to the Death Eaters. The sky seemed cloaked in thick, swirling darkness as the masked figures descended from above, their sheer numbers allowing them to surround each person with ease.
Harry had the most enemies on him.
Hermione had just tried to pull him away when she was abruptly cut off. Spells came at them from all directions, making it nearly impossible for her to focus on Apparating.
Left with no other choice, Hermione made a split-second decision—she shoved Harry aside and flung herself in the opposite direction, barely dodging an incoming curse by a hair’s breadth.
