#256 - Chapter 256: Capturing a Dementor as a Teaching Aid

Since entering October, the little wizards' days seemed to be filled with classes.

Time flew by like water, and in the blink of an eye, Halloween arrived quietly.

As evening approached, the Great Hall was filled with jack-o'-lanterns, and the orange-yellow light illuminated the entire castle.

The long tables were filled with all kinds of candies, and the candy wrappers shimmered with tempting light under the warm light.

Even more special were the many miniature Dementor-shaped toys flying in the night sky.

They waved their tiny black cloaks and roamed around, like shrunken versions of Dementors, emitting a faint buzzing sound, provoking the little wizards on the ground, as if ready to swoop down and suck away the students' happiness at any time.

This was a Halloween event specially launched by the school this year.

As long as the little wizards could release a non-corporeal Patronus, they could smash these Dementor toys and get the special candy inside.

When Harry and his friends arrived in the Great Hall, it was full of dazzling silver-white light.

"Wuhu—" Ron shouted, took out his wand and rushed forward, "Special candy, here I come."

"Harry, Hermione, watch me show you how to catch toys with a non-corporeal Patronus."

"Show off? What's there to show off!" Accompanied by a discordant voice, Malfoy passed by with his head held high.

A silver-white peacock flew around him. Under Malfoy's control, it easily knocked a Dementor toy down from the sky.

"Weasley, open your eyes and take a look, this is what you call showing off."

He glanced at Ron sideways and shook his head gently.

"As for your shapeless white mist, you'd better not take it out and embarrass yourself."

"Hey, Potter!" Malfoy solemnly extended an invitation, "Do you want to have a competition to see who's Patronus catches more toys?"

Hearing Malfoy's ridicule, how could Ron endure this?

"Malfoy, how many days has it been since you successfully released a corporeal Patronus? Has it been a month?"

"I don't know where you got the courage to compare with Harry!"

"You have to know that Harry successfully released a corporeal Patronus at the first dueling club."

"He has been practicing for two months now."

"Your little peacock wants to beat Harry's stag, what a daydream."

"Hehe—" Malfoy smiled contemptuously, "People without a corporeal Patronus are not qualified to shout here."

"To be honest, I'm worried about you. Look at your roommate Neville, he has successfully released a corporeal Patronus, and you can only release a silver-white mist."

"Tsk tsk—you're really too weak."

"You should practice hard now, otherwise when the professor takes us to fight Dementors in real combat, you can only watch, think about it, it's so pitiful."

Malfoy showed a wicked smile and waved his fist gently at Ron in a serious manner.

"Come on! As for the candy, I'll catch more and share it with you."

Who wants you to cheer me on?!

Who wants to share your candy?!

Ron was so angry that his face turned blue and white.

Thinking of Neville's successful release of the Patronus, his heart felt even more blocked.

The enemy's ridicule made him uncomfortable, but the success of his friend made him even more worried.

How could Neville master the Patronus Charm before him?

Even after changing his wand, he shouldn't have improved so quickly.

Could it be that he secretly practiced in his bed curtains every night?

Ignoring Ron, who was caught in a battle between heaven and man, Malfoy turned his head and shouted at Harry.

"Come on, Potter, let's bet on our respective honors and have a toy-catching competition."

Harry looked at Malfoy, then at Ron, and smiled helplessly.

Every time these two people meet, they can't help but quarrel.

They have fought together so many times.

Really so childish!

He drew out his wand, released the stag Patronus, and pounced on the Dementor toys in the sky.

Watching the stag and peacock chasing toys in the sky, Hermione smiled gently, raised her wand and released an otter Patronus, joining the team chasing the toys.

The atmosphere in the Great Hall was extremely warm, and everyone was having a great time.

In this happy atmosphere, the number of little wizards who could release a corporeal Patronus greatly increased.

From the original twenty-seven people, it suddenly broke through the forty-person mark.

Various Patronuses in different forms shuttled through the Great Hall, reflecting the entire Great Hall with silver light.

Perhaps stimulated by Malfoy, Ron broke through his limit and successfully released a Patronus.

"I finally did it!"

Looking at the silver-shining hound in front of him, Ron shouted happily, controlled the hound Patronus to chase Hermione's otter for two circles, and then plunged into the battle circle of the stag and peacock.

"I originally thought it was difficult to summon a corporeal Patronus, but now it seems not so complicated."

Ron said smugly to Hermione, "Today, I'll practice with the Dementor toys first, and when I fight Dementors in real combat, watch how easily I handle them!"

Gradually, the time for the dinner arrived, and the professors all came to the Great Hall.

Seeing the Patronuses flying all over the sky, Professor McGonagall's serious expression disappeared, revealing a gratified smile.

Professor Flitwick was extremely excited, walking around in the crowd, constantly praising the students.

After being praised, those students' confidence exploded, and they all clamored to fix the Dementors.

Listening to the students' bold words, Sebastian's mouth curled into a meaningful smile.

Fix the Dementors?

They are all very energetic.

Next, we must increase the intensity for these students who have released corporeal Patronuses and let them accept the poisonous beating of reality.

After Halloween, the temperature dropped sharply, the sky became gloomy, heavy clouds shrouded the entire sky, and a bone-chilling chill filled the air.

After finishing his class, Sebastian put his hands in the pockets of his robe, walked across the lawn with ease, and came to the gate of Hogwarts.

Looking at the Dementors flying all over the sky, he smiled slightly and began to select suitable teaching aids.

He first slowly took out a set of the latest Fantastic Beasts Language Translator launched by Swan Alchemy from the Undetectable Extension Charm bag, a pair of peculiar headphones and a mask with a special microphone.

The headphones and mask looked full of futuristic sense, and were engraved with complex alchemy symbols.

After adjusting the language mode to the Dementors' language, Sebastian put on the headphones and mask and began to listen to what these guys were saying.

"Work, work hard!"

"Hungry, I'm not full every day here, I've lost weight."

"I miss the happy life of eating buffet at Azkaban."

"Why doesn't that Sirius Black appear?!"

"What's wrong with this wizard, staring at us all the time, is he a proper wizard?"

"What are you looking at? If you look again, I'll suck you up!"
