A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 232: “Professor Lupine’s Patronus Charm is extremely clever”

Later in the day—

"You mean Harry's broom hit the Whomping Willow?"

Felix said in surprise, and Hermione said sadly, "When we went to search, we only found some wreckage."

"Harry must be very sad," Felix said with a sigh. He took out a note, wrote a few lines of blessing, and then stopped to ask Hermione's opinion: "Do you think the greeting card, Do you want to add some magic effects, such as sound?"

"Better not," said Hermione firmly, "Ginny just gave Harry a get-well card, and if you don't press it under the pillow, he'll sing shrilly..."

Felix shrugged, "That's it," he handed the card to Hermione, "bring it to Harry for me."

In the next few days, the little wizards discussed what happened on Saturday with great interest, especially the patron saint of swifts, which was full of visual effects by Professor Haipu, was talked about with great interest.

The name of the Patronus Curse quickly spread to the entire school and became the center of the recent topic. Any student who is pulled over can speak clearly and logically—even if there are many fallacies in their words.

Some junior wizards obtained all kinds of true and false information from senior students, combined with their own understanding, and spread it again.

Many people can't tell the principle of the "half round moon", they regard it as the second form of this magic, and name it "Silver Moon".

Felix had heard the name one morning while eating breakfast in the auditorium, when he almost spit porridge out of his mouth.

Cormac McLaggen, a fourth-grade student, said braggingly: "My uncle's Patronus has a second form, and I'm not lying!" He stroked his rough hair and said, "My dad I personally said that uncle’s patron saint is a wild boar, but I saw it once when I was a child, and it was obviously a jackrabbit, so I was surprised at first... so this magic has two forms.”

Felix took a careful look at McLaggen. If his words were not false, his uncle must have had a terrible experience, and his whole personality changed drastically—only in this case, the Patronus would happen Variety.

Others keep asking where to learn the spell. "What cool magic!" Lee Jordan shouted in the common room: "I mean, even if I can't do what Professor Haipu does, I can at least protect myself."

But Flitwick poured cold water on them. He stood on a stack of tomes and emphasized more than once: "The Patronus Charm is not in the scope of our exams. It is too advanced. Many adult Wizards can't master it either, this magic requires strong spiritual power..."

Flitwick didn't intend to teach, some young wizards turned their ideas to Defense Against the Dark Arts class and dueling class. .

On the evening of the second Thursday in November, during dueling class, Felix was asked this question.

"Patronus?" Felix repeated.

"Yes, Professor Haip. This is the spell we need most right now, isn't it? Dementors are lurking around outside the school, ready to attack us!" a fifth-year Gryffindor shouted, His words drew nods from the young wizards in the audience.

Felix laughed: "Lee Jordan, the dementors are guarding Hogwarts under the order of the Ministry of Magic. Their target is the fugitive from Azkaban, Sirius Black."

"But Professor, what happened on the day of the Quidditch match has proved their unreliability. I wrote home, and my mother wrote back, saying that it was the Ministry of Magic who released the dementors from Azkaban. The stupidest decision ever made!"

"Yeah, they are not controllable at all."

"My aunt told me that even in Azkaban, the dementors once rioted... and some prisoners died," said Hufflepuff's Susan Bones, who saw the sea Professor Pu looked over and added, "My aunt is the director of the Law Enforcement Department."

Felix is ​​a little hesitant. To be honest, he doesn’t think it’s a good choice to teach little wizards the Patronus Charm in the dueling class—the study time is long and the difficulty is great. The most important thing is: there may not be Effect.

If there is no one-on-one guidance for such a profound mantra, it is difficult for students to master it by themselves. But if you really want him to teach you personally, you can't do it even if you give him ten time converters.

He looked at the two professors Snape and Flitwick, "What's your opinion, Severus, Filius?"

Snape immediately showed a resisting expression, and he said coldly: "I don't know how to spell this."

Flitwick once again expressed his opinion: "Felix, the Patronus Charm is very complicated, and its function is too single, I don't think it can be used. Besides - Dumbledore has already protested to the Ministry of Magic, Fudge Guaranteed, Dementors will never make the same mistake again."

Felix nodded, he also knew about it. In fact, when a group of shrunken dementors returned, there were many opinions within the Ministry of Magic. Some people wanted to send people to investigate, but Dumbledore resolutely pushed back.

Add to that the constant yelling of letters from cranky parents at the Ministry of Magic, and even Fudge himself, to the point where the dementor injury was never mentioned again.

Felix put the matter aside for the time being, but... he looked at Snape, and the professor said that he didn't know the Patronus Charm, is it true?

Could it be that the professor really went too deep into the field of black magic and couldn't use the Patronus Charm?

…

At dinner, he and Snape sat together, discussing the teaching details of the next dueling class, Felix commented: "The students have mastered several commonly used duel moves, the next few classes The class is best arranged for practice, Severus, I have an idea, maybe we can hold a small duel competition."

"Aren't you afraid of trouble, Felix?" said Snape.

"I plan to hand it over to the Student Union. Percy Weasley and Penelope Clearwater are both capable, and I trust them." Felix said.

Snape showed his usual mocking expression: "How much sincerity is contained in your trust? Felix, did someone really walk into your heart?"

Felix laughed, "Oh, Severus, are you trying to say I'm hypocritical? We're talking about abilities, and in this regard, I really trust Mr. Weasley and Miss Clearwater, What are you referring to?"

Snape stared at him blankly, and Felix deliberately gave a fake-looking smile.

At this moment, a voice inserted into the silent communication between the two——

"Professor Snape, I met Professor Flitwick just now. He said you were in the auditorium." Lupine walked up to the two and said happily. He had a new robe, and it looked like Dumbledore paid him enough to cover his daily expenses.

"What's the matter, Lupin?" Snape narrowed his eyes, "I've finished all the potions I gave you? I still have some, a pot full..."

Lupine smiled and said, "Not for now, Severus. I'm here for another matter—"

Snape looked at him without a smile on his face.

Lupine said: "I am very grateful to you for helping me substitute for my class during my illness, but the teaching of the third grade is too radical, and it directly crosses most of the textbooks——"

"Werewolf..." Snape dragged out a long voice, and Lupine's hand trembled, which was well concealed by him, "...is there any problem with this chapter?"

Lupine frowned slightly~IndoMTL.com~Severus, the third grade just learned Hinkpunk, most of the students don't have the corresponding foundation, I'm sorry, I decided to postpone the content of this part. "

Snape glanced at him contemptuously, "Let me say, Lupine, werewolves are too dangerous, and it is very necessary for students to know how to recognize and kill werewolves as soon as possible." He lightly Said softly: "Maybe it will be used someday."

Lupine regained his calm: "Thank you for reminding me. I will teach according to the ability of the little wizard. If there is nothing else, I will go first. There are still many things to do."

"Wait, Lupine."

"Is there anything else, Snape?" Lupine said in a deep voice.

"Let me introduce to you," Snape's eyes moved between Lupine and Felix, "As far as I know, Professor Lupine's Patronus Charm is very good, maybe——Felix, you You can invite him as a temporary professor of the duel class."

Snape's eyes flickered, "As a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, I must have the responsibility to show students how to deal with such dangerous dark creatures as dementors."
