Draco meanwhile also knew that speed was important as although anyone
inside would have ringing ears they would have been protected from the
flash by not looking directly at it - but they would still be utterly
disorganised - which was the only way to take on seven to two odds. And
fixing ringing ears wasn't that hard.
Still, Draco recognised the first figure; the masks didn't conceal
identities to people who already knew you - and he'd taught him how to stop
ringing ears. "Greg? What are you doing here?"
"What does it look like?" There was a bit more bite to Goyle's voice than
normal. "No one wants to hire a former Death Eater, and especially not one
with my OWLs, the Ministry Mudblood Mandates prevent me getting a job
there." He was of course talking about the preferential hiring practices
for the muggle-born in the Ministry of Magic (even if they'd rapidly run
into a glass ceiling) "And I don't want to rely on your charity. So I'm
doing the only thing I'm good at. Now get out of my way Draco and cancel
that Serpensortia you cast behind your back before I remind you how
although it took your help to get an E at Potions I managed an O in Dark
Arts."
Draco tried not to let Goyle having spotted that worry him. "We don't have
to do this Greg. Leave now and I didn't see you." He apparently hadn't seen
the second Death Eater sneaking round the edge of the house to outflank him.
