A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 45: Guest psychiatrist
As the Creevey incident unfolded, the little wizards at Hogwarts showed an extremely unreliable side. They exchanged amulets, exorcisms, and other things to protect themselves without telling the teacher. .
During this time, the practice quickly became popular across the school, and Neville Longbottom bought a big stinking onion, a pointed amethyst and a rotting salamander tail.
As it turned out, the other Gryffindor boys told him that he wasn't actually in danger: he was pure-blood, so he couldn't be attacked.
"They started with Filch," said Neville, his round face full of fear. "Everyone knows I'm pretty much a Squib."
Professors have to give orders in class, repeating that these things are completely useless. Among them, Felix has won the fans of many young wizards with his good reputation and gentle attitude.
There are even many lower-grade students who "come here especially" and ask for psychological guidance.
"Professor, I, can I talk to you?" A curly-haired Hufflepuff boy stopped him as he was patrolling the hallway.
"Of course." Felix sighed inwardly. He is the fourth one this week, and he is tired of being famous.
When the two came to a pillar, the little wizard seemed a little cautious, but Felix had a very high "favorite rate" among the young wizards, which made him calm down quickly.
"Professor, I have encountered some difficulties." Felix motioned for him to continue, "My name is Justin Finch, and I come from a Muggle family..."
Felix understood.
"...when I got the offer, I wasn't sure if I wanted to come to Hogwarts, but, well, you know, I was going to Eton, where my parents graduated. "
Felix agreed, "I've heard of this school, it's quite famous in the Muggle world."
"Yes, that's right." Justin became more interested, "But I was more curious about magic, and I persuaded them to let me come to Hogwarts to study. At that time, Professor McGonagall's performance scared them .”
Felix nodded. Hogwarts has always had the habit of visiting new students from Muggle families.
But it must be very interesting to think of the expression of Muggles under the materialistic view when they first saw magic.
Justin continued: "A lot of things have happened this year, and the situation is difficult... Everyone is panicked, and many people have written letters to their families."
"Your parents are also worried about you, right? Did they suspend your studies?" Felix asked.
"No, no, professor," Justin said quickly, "I didn't tell my family, I believe Hogwarts will continue, professor, I like magic! I, I'm just a little scared, there are many Rumors say... Harry, Harry is the heir of Slytherin!"
"Most of the rumors are unreliable." Felix said calmly, "Do you believe this theory?"
"I'm not sure either, from logic, well, professor, you know the word logic, right? Great, from logic, they just appeared in the wrong place, but I don't know much about magic... ..."
"Don't worry, it's not him. I can assure you that the professors have enough insight to distinguish facts from rumors."
Justin was visibly relieved.
"Any more questions?"
"Also, Professor, I heard that you are also Muggle-born? Are you assigned to Slytherin?"
"Exactly."
"Then you must have suffered from a lot of people, right? You paid them back?"
"Ah, I can barely say that."
Justin's expression became excited, "Professor, many young wizards, especially those born in Muggle families, admire you very much. You are their idol!"
? ?
Am I now becoming the idol of common wizards?
"Professor, everyone hopes to be as brave as you..."
Felix was still a little surprised after seeing off this little wizard who was shy at first and then quickly turned to chatter. After a while, he smiled lightly, this feeling... not bad.
The time came to December, and with the tireless efforts of the professors, the little wizards finally abandoned the unreliable amulets and turned to more practical gadgets, such as the looking glass that can detect potential dangers in advance.
It is popular among girls to carry a small mirror with them and take a picture with the mirror at every corner, but this practice was quickly abandoned, and not many people can persist.
The devil vine that Felix had raised for a long time has also grown vigorously and is ready for use.
There are also branches of Whomping Willow. After more than a month of hard work, every inch of it is soaked with Felix's own magic power, which makes its surface radiant and still maintains a strong enough vitality. vitality.
Felix tried the effect, and he pulled out his wand, "Get smaller quickly!" The seven or eight-meter-long branch shrank rapidly, turning into a long snake in the blink of an eye.
"It's still a bit rough."
He continued to cast spells, and the branches became smaller and smaller, but the process became more and more difficult. Fortunately, the branches were soaked in his magic power and did not repel him, and with the help of a few techniques from ancient books, he succeeded in turning them away. It turned into a green, flexible string.
Without taking a break, he quickly carved dense runes on the surface to maintain the magic effect.
"Looks pretty good!"
But then, he encountered difficulties.
According to his idea, he will rely on whooping willow string as the skeleton ~IndoMTL.com~ and weave unicorn hair into it to form something like a small pocket.
But he's stuck at the first step, how to weave them together in a proper way?
"I know this, my mother and I have learned to knit sweaters!"
In the end, it was his assistant who provided help. Hermione provided seven knitting schemes in a row, which impressed Felix.
After three days of busy work, the little witch finished her work brilliantly, and even wove a small beaded bag for herself with the leftover scraps after getting permission from Professor Haipu.
The beads are also ready-made, which Hermione made out of the chestnut wood blocks used to practice runes.
The reason why she used beads to embellish was because the original materials were insufficient, so she had to make a compromise.
The final semi-finished products are an exquisite men's wallet belonging to Felix and a beaded pouch belonging to Hermione.
"The rest of the work is to engrave the rune circuit, let the devil's net move, and mistakenly think that I am still thriving... and debugging, it will take about a week or two."
"When you are in danger, you can use magic power to activate the devil vine to attack."
"Of course," Felix explained, "your beaded pouch is not made of good enough material to hold too many sprigs of devil vine."
"This is enough for me." Hermione said happily, "Professor, can I complete the construction of the rune by myself?"
"You can't do this yet, but you can help me."
……
On a Thursday afternoon, a small crowd gathered around the bulletin board, reading a piece of parchment that had just been nailed up.
The top few words shine brightly, constantly attracting attention. That is——
Dueling Club.
