Chapter 103 Maca's Miniature Charm Class

Harry, I understand how you feel about losing your parents, but at least you still have relatives you can see alive—even if they really treat you badly, at least they are better than me, aren't they?

Maca's tone was still so indifferent, but every sentence hit their hearts like a hammer.

Oh - Maca, you are - but you never said - Hermione said in surprise.

No wonder you don't mention the situation at home. Mom is always worried that your family treats you badly! Ron was also surprised.

Of course, Harry's heart was the most shocked by Maca's words. He stared at Maca so hard right now that he couldn't even speak.

Harry, you have to remember that you are a Gryffindor. Maca said calmly, Don't always be upset about these things, show your courage.

If you want to figure out all this, you must not be in a hurry, let alone be reckless. Can you understand what I mean?

But... Harry asked hesitantly, Is it true what you said about Peter Pettigrew?

Maca glanced at Ron's pocket from the corner of his eye, and he found that Banban, who had been hiding in it all the time, moved immediately when he heard Harry's words.

I'm not very clear, that's just a possibility. He dealt with it casually, and then continued, Harry, Professor Lupine has already told me that you want to learn the Patronus Charm. I think, It's a nice idea.

Oh! Yes! Hermione echoed, Ron and I also want to learn, can we learn together?

Of course, there's nothing wrong with that. Maca agreed. Looking at the recent situation, the Patronus Charm is very practical—of course, it's not easy at all. You have to be mentally prepared.

...

Soon, after lunch, the lectures began.

Speaking of which, the three of Harry were looking forward to it at first, after all, the majestic eagle gave them quite a shock. But it didn't take long, except for Hermione who was still in high spirits, Harry and Ron had already started to feel sleepy.

Maca's mini-spell class this time was highly valued by Professor Lupine. Not only did he let Maca teach everyone in the staff lounge, he even invited Professor Flitwick to listen carefully.

But to be honest, almost everyone thought that Maca would choose actual combat training as the method of teaching—Lupine even thought that Maca might directly grab a dementor by the face like he did on the train. It dragged into the lounge.

Proper or not, it's sure to be a pretty exciting start to a lecture.

But who knows, Maca didn't mean to ask Harry and the others to take out their wands at all.

He tapped on the blackboard with his wand, moved a large piece of spell theory on it, and then calmly talked about a series of spells about the structure of spells, syllables and breakpoints, the trajectory of the wand, etc. theoretical analysis.

It's like trying to break the spell completely, which makes people feel extremely boring. Add to that his constant tone of voice - and it's almost as drowsy as Professor Binns' History of Magic class.

Hey, what do you think? Lupine asked Flitwick with a stiff face.

It's like listening to a complex theoretical lecture. Flitwick's sharp voice was much weaker than usual, This reminds me of the alchemy academic salon seminar that Nicole Flamel gave at the beginning. ...

To be honest, these theories are really amazing. It's hard to imagine that McLean has such an in-depth study of spells... Lupine said weakly, But why can't I listen to it at all...

Oh, Maca, you seem to have changed your wand? Ron, who was bored, asked suddenly.

Except for Hermione, who was immersed in knowledge, the others also subconsciously looked at Maca's hand.

Well, yes, Maca raised the wand in his hand and said, The previous one was accidentally broken, so I went to buy a new one.

He paused, looked at the listless look of the others, and shook his head involuntarily.

Okay! Then, let's try it out... Maca said, Originally, I planned to give you a brief understanding of the basic principles of the Patronus Charm, which will make it easier for you to cast it successfully, but ...Anyway, get out your wand first.

As soon as they heard that the actual training was about to take place, everyone cheered up.

Maca asked the three of Harry to stand in the middle of the open space, and then said: There are many points for casting the Patronus Charm, but there is only one key point, and that is—in the process of casting the spell, use your most active Use the most positive emotions as a support to let your emotions explode.

Then... how to do it? Harry couldn't help asking.

There are many kinds of positive emotions, among them, 'happy' and 'guardian' are the most effective for dementors, Maca explained in detail, the object of 'happy' is oneself, while the object of 'guardian' is others. .No matter which one is needed, the strongest, most direct, and firmest one is the best.”

Specific things...for example, recalling your happiest moments; or imagining that you want to protect someone who is most important to you, he continued, and then say the mantra—'Call God to protect' , try them all!

Happy memories? Protect important people?

The three of Harry had wrinkled faces and different expressions. After thinking for a while, they waved their wands and started to try.

However, it was not easy to cast the Patronus Charm. In the next half an hour, none of the three of them gained much. Well, except for Hermione.

On her third attempt, she made her wand emit a silver mist of light.

In fact, Maca's previous theoretical narration is indeed very effective, and Hermione is a good example. But not everyone can learn those boring theoretical knowledge.

Originally, I only planned to let you learn the theory first, so I didn't prepare... Maca spread his hands and said, Let's do it! You keep trying, I'll get you a dementor—— recently It's everywhere outside of school, isn't it?

Not long after, the scene that Lupine imagined finally appeared.

Maca, whose whole body exuded a silver-white radiance, directly dragged a dementor into the faculty lounge.

Fortunately, it's the Christmas holiday, otherwise it would be very lively... No matter how the dementor in his hand struggled, Maca just grabbed its face and covered its mouth tightly.

As the dementor entered the lounge, the originally warm room immediately became chilly,

On the side, the three of Harry stood far away, looking at Maca with complicated expressions.

...Don't look at me like that, Maca waved his empty hand, This is an advanced application of the Patronus Charm, and I discovered it by accident. If you can learn the basics If it is more solid, I can also try to teach you.

Okay, did anyone make it just now? Maca asked, I mean, while I was away.

Miss Granger has done a good job, said Professor Lupine. I think she can give it a try.

Okay, then, everyone backs to the wall except Hermione, Maca said. Hermione, are you ready?

Upon hearing this, Hermione glanced at the dementor struggling in Maca's hands, and then nodded firmly.

Very good! Remember, the spell is 'Guardian'. Maca said, releasing the dementor in his hand, and pushed it towards Hermione.

Immediately, the Dementor, whose whole body was covered under the tattered black cloak and surrounded by black mist, rushed towards Hermione, and grabbed her with its scabbed and rotten hands.

Hermione immediately felt as if she had returned to the moment at the end of the first term, when she was submerged in the icy lake and almost drowned.

The chill kept seeping into her skin, and the dementor's face, hidden under the hood, was getting closer and closer to her. Hermione felt like she couldn't concentrate enough to cast a spell... Happy? Where is the joy?

In Hermione's heart, fear and despair kept accumulating...

what--

Hermione screamed and took a few steps back, then tripped over herself, and she fell to the cold floor, but couldn't help but move backward desperately.

She couldn't help but want to stay away from the monster that filled her with fear.

...It seems that we still need to slow down.

Maca's voice came from behind the dementor, and at the same time, a hand shrouded in silver-white mist suddenly stretched out from behind its neck.

That hand tightly pinched the dementor's neck, causing it to tilt its head back, and then...

There was only a bang sound, accompanied by a hoarse roar, and the dementor found himself smashed against the wall by that nasty human being.

Oh--

Harry, Ron, and Lupine and Flitwick couldn't help shrinking their necks.

A peculiar over-the-shoulder fall... Lupine's mouth twitched.

Hmm... who made dementors grow so tall? Flitwick scratched his head.

Because everyone was standing against the wall on both sides, they could see all of Maca's actions just now—including how Maca jumped up, how he grabbed the dementor's neck, and how he finally Breaking its neck and throwing it out.

The whole set of movements is so smooth, I have to say, it looks really cool.

...The body of a dementor is indeed very light. Maca shrugged when he saw everyone staring at him.

As he spoke, he walked up to the dementor again, grabbed its face, and dragged it into the middle of the lounge.

Everyone, remember to be careful of the mouth of the dementor. It will not only suck your positive emotions, but sometimes it will directly suck your soul! Maca said calmly, This point must be kept in your hearts —that's why I always cover its mouth.
