Chapter 109 – Facing Fleur (1)
It was late into the night, but we were sitting opposite each other, studying a huge map laid out on the floor of our cabin. We were trying to decide where to head next, but somehow, both of us felt lost. Around us, multiple ancient codexes littered the carpet as we searched for concealment charms and their counterspells.
"Nurmengard is in these mountainranges. Somewhere." Quincy hummed, running her fingers over the Alps once again, making me sigh.
"Yes, it is, but we don't know where and none of our revealing spells worked."
"Of course, because it has to be protected from finding it by multiple charms. Maybe even by a Fidelius charm."
"Could be... but who would be the secret keeper? Nah, it doesn't matter. Even if we knew that, we couldn't find them. We need to outplay the charms..."
"I don't think we could disillusion any of those types of spells. We don't have that power."
"I wouldn't worry!" Squeaky interjected, bringing us hot chocolate, wearing an encouraging smile. "Master and Mistress are always smart! Good people will be lucky in their endeavors!"
"Lucky..." I chuckled, but then it hit me. "Lucky... that's it! You are the best, Squeaky!"
"Ah? T-thank you, Master!"
"Felix Felicis!" Quincy exclaimed, catching on as I was rummaging in my bag of holding, disappearing into it right up to my shoulders. So many things were stored within it now that it was impossible to find one little vial.
"Accio Felix Felicis!" I shouted, pointing my wand into its opening, and soon enough, it flew out right into my palm. "I totally forgot about it... now, this is what we need!"
