A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 22: Ask
Felix walked out of the Pig's Head Bar and let out a long breath.
You can't underestimate anyone!
Look, a dark wizard has the ambition to spy on the secrets of the Dark Lord. Isn't the ideal of "exploring the true meaning of magic" set by himself a bit small?
Felix thought about it seriously, and finally decided that his ideals are more lofty.
As for the contract with Klein, make a contract!
Do you think Dumbledore's boss is making trouble under his nose?
Besides, he already knew the answer to the question.
What is the secret of the Dark Lord's leap to death? Horcruxes, he still has this concept. Therefore, as long as he doesn't study the Horcrux, the contract will be terminated after one year.
Because the prophecy is, "The Dark Lord's relic will only stay in Hogwarts for one year," which means that it is just a passer-by, so the contract between the two only needs to exist for one year - this is Klein's idea.
Felix guessed that the relic was probably destroyed by the protagonist group.
The protagonist group is not safe every year in school, and maybe they will not be completely clean until they graduate.
However, this also reminded him that it seems that the crisis of the "plot" this year comes from the Dark Lord's relic, which is the Horcrux.
Which Horcrux would it be?
This is the question Felix has been thinking about since he returned to the office.
He vaguely remembered that there were seven Horcruxes in total, most of which were relics of the Hogwarts Big Four, which corresponded to Harry's seven-year school career. Could it be that one was destroyed a year?
He knows all about Ravenclaw's crown, Slytherin's locket, and Hufflepuff's gold cup, so logically speaking, Gryffindor's sword is also a Horcrux?
Which one was destroyed last year? The first one seems to be called "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", so the Sorcerer's Stone is a Horcrux?
Felix guessed irresponsibly.
The information he has is actually useless. First, you can’t prove what you said, because he doesn’t know where the Dark Lord kept the Horcruxes. Second, it’s too taboo. Suddenly told Dumbledore about the Horcrux... Good guy, you still study Horcruxes, right?
So, let it take its course, he will at most beat the side drums.
This is also a benefit to my assistant (tool man) Miss Hermione Granger.
That's right, this assistant has already been reserved for her, the reason... is hard to explain.
The second of the only three candidates has died: the Weasley twins found him yesterday and voluntarily withdrew. Because they are busy with Quidditch training this week, and they are expected to spend every weekend on it for the next year.
According to what they said, Felix was implying that he would confine that guy named Wood for a school year, so that they would have time to do other things.
Can he agree to this? The professor openly used his power for personal gain, is he still a fool?
The main reason is that the conditions were not negotiated, and the time they asked for was too long!
Locking up a student for a school year for no reason, not even Snape would do that.
This made Felix a little speechless. He originally wanted to return Professor McGonagall's favor, but it turned out like this.
Are there any good seedlings in other colleges...
But fortunately, Miss Granger is very reliable, I can meet her in the library every day, and it can be seen that she is working very hard, and the circles under her eyes are black with three plus signs.
The next day, the library.
It was another unremarkable day, and Felix picked out a copy of "Confidential Fighting" from the restricted area, and gnawed on it with gusto.
This book mainly records the secrets of all kinds of duels among wizards in history. The reason why it is placed in the restricted area is because there are many restricted pictures on it. In the era when the laws of the magic world were not standardized, black magic was popular because of its rapid learning, great power and weirdness, so the duels at that time were **** and cruel, and even weird.
For example, in the picture he saw now, a hapless wizard had irreversibly "pumpkinized" his head, instead of swelling to the size of a pumpkin, he completely turned into a "vegetable".
What's even more amazing is that the loser was still alive and died three years later.
There are also some fighting teachings in the book, the scale is very large, and Felix even saw how to incorporate curses into ordinary spells.
New skill get!
Near noon, Felix walked out of the library, ready to enjoy his own lunch.
After a little hesitation, Hermione on the other side followed decisively.
"Professor! Professor Haipu."
Felix stopped in his tracks, "What's the matter, Miss Granger?" He didn't tell Hermione the fact that she was the only assistant candidate, and it wouldn't be a bad thing to learn more.
"It's like this. I read from a book that some talented wizards can hear things that others can't. Is this true?" Hermione asked with a calm breath.
Felix was shocked, Mr. Ke? But he quickly discarded this unreliable idea.
"Can you be more specific? The conditions you gave are too broad."
Hermione thought about it carefully, and seemed to be organizing her words, "That's a short story, a little wizard and...his father were transcribing materials in a castle, and then the little wizard suddenly heard strange words, And his father! He doesn't know anything about it."
Strange, why does Hermione always pause on the word "father"?
This idea flashed by, Felix thought about it seriously, and replied: "There are many short stories that are actually made up, so what you hear may not be true, but we can discuss it for the time being." Fan."
Hermione nodded cheerfully.
"The first possibility is that the little wizard is lying, and he wants to get his father's attention~IndoMTL.com~ This kind of thing is very common in the Muggle world;" Felix first said what he thinks is the most likely an answer.
Seeing that Hermione wanted to answer, he shook his head, "The second possibility is that they are copying some dangerous magical materials. You must know that some ancient magic manuscripts contain magic power, or were The master has handled it specially, and unqualified people will touch it rashly, which can easily cause dangerous consequences."
Looking at Hermione thoughtfully, he added, "There are quite a few books like this in the Restricted Section of Hogwarts."
But they are all locked with magical chains, and little wizards are strictly forbidden to peek at them—unless you get the professor's autograph.
"The third possibility," Felix raised his voice slightly, "is that the little wizard has awakened some talent, such as prophecy, perception, or suddenly mastered a certain language."
"Can you elaborate, Professor?"
"Well, you also know that some young wizards have special talents, such as animal affinity, or extraordinary talents in casting spells without wands, and the rarer ones are prophecy talents. Professor Sybil's elders seem to have This kind of talent... Oh, Sybil is the professor of divination, you may take her class next year."
"As for language talent, it is often related to their ancestors. If their ancestors mastered the mermaid language, this talent may be passed on to the next generation, or it may suddenly appear in the blood after hundreds of years."
Felix gave an example at random, "For example, the little wizard in your story, it is very likely that his grandparents can speak the language of mice, and he happened to hear a chatty Mr. Mouse nagging that day."
Until the figure of Professor Haipu left, Hermione was still thinking about it. Could it be that there was a strange wizard who could speak mouse language in Harry's ancestor?
She is a little messy.
