#209 - Chapter 209 Luna's Highlight Moment
With the exception of the fifth and seventh year students who had to take their O.W.L. and N.E.W.T. exams, the entire Hogwarts was in a state of relaxation.
Since he didn't need to participate in the proctoring of the O.W.L. and N.E.W.T. exams, Sebastian's life suddenly became much easier.
Although things were always popping up at a magical school like Hogwarts, at this moment, he could temporarily put aside his busy affairs and enjoy some leisure time of his own.
While Harry and his friends were chatting by the Black Lake, Sebastian called Luna to his office, preparing to give her another private lesson before the holidays.
Speaking of Luna, this first-year witch was undoubtedly a very special existence.
She was extraordinarily gifted, with a natural and unique perception of the mysterious power of emotions.
Because of this, Sebastian had taken Luna as his apprentice, often personally teaching her about the knowledge of emotional magic.
You should know that emotional magic belongs to advanced magic, capable of controlling and guiding the emotions of others, and is usually not taught to young witches of this age.
Its learning threshold is very high, and even looking at the entire magical world, there are very few wizards who can master emotional magic.
Despite having high expectations for Luna, Sebastian did not force her growth by directly teaching her ready-made emotional magic.
After all, as a first-year student, Luna's magical foundation had not yet been fully established, which greatly limited her performance in emotional magic.
Moreover, as the old saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him fish.
Throughout this year, Sebastian patiently taught Luna the various basic magical runes representing emotions.
He spent nearly a year helping Luna lay a solid foundation for emotional magic.
After all, for geniuses, as long as you help them build a good foundation, they will build skyscrapers on their own.
Luna did not disappoint Sebastian's expectations, and she progressed quickly in learning the various basic magical runes representing emotions.
At the end of April, she had completely mastered all the magical runes.
For the sake of her grades, Sebastian did not disturb Luna in May, but instead let her review well for the exams.
Only now that the exams were over did Sebastian call Luna over, to check her learning results and teach her a little bit of advanced emotional magic application.
However, as soon as they met, Luna brought Sebastian a great surprise, stunning him completely.
"What? You integrated the magical runes representing happiness into your singing?"
Sebastian was full of question marks, and for a moment he couldn't figure out how the two could be integrated.
"Yes, Professor Swann," Luna said with a smile, "I went to the Forbidden Forest to play with the Thestrals a while ago because I was under a lot of pressure from studying."
"As if seeing my troubles, one of the Thestrals took the initiative to invite me to fly around in the sky a few times."
Sebastian's head was spinning.
Good heavens!
Flying on a Thestral without protection, and without an adult wizard watching over her.
This little girl was too brave.
She's a hidden Gryffindor.
No wonder, in the original story, Luna's friends were all Gryffindor students.
After thinking about it, Sebastian suppressed the idea of lecturing her and asked with curiosity, "And then?"
"Flying in the sky, I felt particularly happy, so I wanted to sing to let the Thestrals feel my happiness too."
"Perhaps it was a spontaneous feeling, I naturally combined the magical runes of happiness with my singing, and the Thestrals were very happy to hear it."
Just that simple?!
Sebastian asked, "Then can you now autonomously control this fusion of magical runes and singing?"
"I think so," Luna said uncertainly, "I'll try and see."
As she spoke, Luna sang a well-known happy nursery rhyme from the magical world.
【
Magic is abundant in the magical world,
Spells dance with laughter so bright,
Owls fly with letters to send,
Hogwarts, hop on for a delightful flight!
Little wands held tightly in hand,
A spell is cast, a sparkling gleam,
"Wingardium Leviosa, so grand!"
Brooms carry laughter on the breeze, it would seem.
Chocolate Frogs hop onto the table,
A magical world to explore,
Laughter accompanies twinkling stars so stable,
A wizard's childhood is truly a joyous core!
】
After listening to this song, Sebastian was so shocked that his mouth hung open for a long time.
This wasn't just a song!
This was magic disguised as a song!
Moreover, the magical attack within was extremely subtle. If Sebastian wasn't very familiar with emotional magic, he wouldn't have been able to sense the mystery within at all.
Ordinary people would only think that Luna's singing was beautiful and made them feel happy after listening to it, and would not realize that emotional magic was at work.
Genius!
No, genius was not enough to describe this little girl with golden hair.
In her first year, she had relied on her unique magical talent to walk a path that had never existed in the magical world before.
Sebastian was so excited that he couldn't control himself, and many guesses instantly appeared in his mind.
He wondered if different tunes had different requirements for magical runes representing different emotions.
For example, letting Luna sing rock music to bring everyone exciting emotions.
Or, for example, singing some sad songs to bring deep sorrow to the enemy, and disintegrate the enemy's morale and fighting spirit.
For example, adding magic to identify friend from foe in the song, bringing different effects to comrades and enemies on the battlefield.
Sebastian tried his best to gather his divergent thoughts.
No rush, no rush!
Luna's training route still needed to be carefully planned, and she must not be allowed to waste her talent in any way.
However, he could use this advantage to change Luna's situation among the students and make more young wizards like her.
Sebastian's eyes lit up, and he thought of a brilliant idea.
In the current Hogwarts, except for the fifth and seventh year students, the students of other grades have almost two weeks of free time.
He could recruit volunteers to perform at the end-of-year banquet.
Luna could also sing a song on stage, which would definitely make many young wizards like her.
"Luna, would you be willing to sing a song for all the teachers and students at the end-of-year banquet, so that they can all feel your happiness?"
"Of course!" Luna's eyes lit up, she liked letting others feel her happiness.
..........................
The atmosphere of the end-of-year banquet was unusually warm, and the young wizards were eating very quickly, eager to finish dinner so they could enjoy the upcoming performances.
The various delicacies on the long tables were rapidly decreasing under the children's attack, and the sounds of chewing and the clinking of cups and plates rose and fell.
Everyone's eyes sparkled with anticipation as they ate and joked with each other, guessing what the performances would be.
When the students put down their cutlery, Sebastian stepped forward and gently waved his wand.
The long tables of the four houses stretched and deformed, connecting together to form a huge stepped auditorium.
In addition, a huge stage appeared in front of the auditorium, looking exceptionally beautiful under the illumination of various magical lights.
The little wizards cheered and took their seats, then waited for the performances to begin.
Fred and George became the hosts of the party, and under their humorous and witty hosting, the registered little wizards gradually took to the stage.
There were singers, dancers, acrobats, and stand-up comedians.
The entire performance took place amid bursts of laughter and applause. The performances on stage were more exciting than the last, and the little wizards released their talents and demeanor that they had never shown on weekdays.
Luna was the last to appear, and her singing directly pushed the entire party to a climax.
The little wizards had never imagined that this strangely dressed little witch had such a beautiful singing voice.
Now it seemed that it wasn't that people dressed strangely, but that everyone didn't understand fashion.
The feeling of happiness was so strong that even after Luna finished performing, they were reluctant to let her leave the stage.
The little wizards kept shouting.
"Luna, your singing is so beautiful!"
"Sing another song!"
"Luna, we love you (づ￣ 3 ￣) づ ╭ ♦ ～"
