Chapter 12
"It's not your fault Harry, no one can predict the trajectory of the Golden Snitch."
After this incident, the original cold war between Harry and Hermione was finally eased.
Now among the three little ones, only Ron is still in the cold war.
Harry felt that Hermione was a very good person, and that he should not help them reconcile as they thought.
…
Study during the day and train at night.
After John was hit once, he deeply understood the importance of physical fitness for a wizard.
After the last night tour, there was a regular visitor in the forbidden book area.
After casting the Disillusionment Curse, John took out "Advanced Charms" from the restricted book area and took the shortcut on the fifth floor to the front of the Room of Requirement.
"I need a place to train."
After walking back and forth in front of the tapestry three times, a wooden door appeared on the blank wall.
Inside is the same training room as last time. This time John brought a big sword with medieval armor.
"I'm almost used to the weight of this sword."
Holding the big sword, John changed his training method.
In the training room with flickering candlelight, the sword light looked like stars.
The great sword swung out a silver light and headed towards the human-shaped target.
The moment the humanoid target came into contact, it was disrupted and shattered.
The target here shattered, and John moved to the next one.
In this way, when the last target is broken, all the target fragments are restored.
These targets have a restoration spell cast on them and will return to their original shape if they are all shattered.
It actually saved John more time.
[Ding, get the blessing: Sword Dance]
[Sword Dance: Using sword weapons to increase viewing pleasure and destructiveness]
His hands were a little sore, and John put down his sword.
With his current body, he can clearly feel the increase in magic power after a series of high-load exercises.
I gained 15 magic points in just one night.
If you keep at it, you can upgrade again in just a few days.
After training, John did not relax and started the second round of magic training.
With an effort that was close to squeezing itself, the spell was significantly improved.
The most obvious one is the newly learned curse, the Disillusionment Curse.
He needs to use the Disguise Charm for night walks every night. After October came, the Disguise Charm was upgraded to level 3.
[Magic: Level 2 (450/500)]
[Magic spells: Alajo Cave Opening (Level 3), Floating Curse (Level 4), Transformation Curse (Level 2), Illusion Curse (Level 3), Lumos (Level 2), Blazing Flame (Level 1), Shattered to Bones ( Level 1)】
[Skills: Short Weapon Mastery (Level 7), Great Sword Mastery (Level 4), Hot Weapon Mastery (Level 1)]
[Blessings: physical fitness, quick attack, precision, academic master, pilot, long-distance running, sword dance]
Thanks to the existence of the Forbidden Book Zone, John learned a lot of magic.
He saw the Fire Curse in the forbidden book area, but after thinking that this thing was extremely difficult to control even among black magic, he gave up his plan to learn it in the first grade.
He remembered that there seemed to be an idiot who used strong fire in the Room of Requirement, which eventually caused the entire Room of Requirement to burn down.
I don't want to make the same mistake again.
After turning on the academic time, he was able to learn more things.
…
Monday, Transfiguration class.
"Well done Wick, five points for Slytherin."
Today's lesson is about turning animals into goblets.
On John's desk is Tom.
Tom, with his big eyes and cute eyes, stuck out his tongue in a fawning manner, and John took out his wand and clicked on him.
“VeraVerto”
Tom transformed into a goblet under his gaze.
Professor McGonagall marveled when she saw it, adding to Slytherin's no longer barren points funnel.
Hermione felt a little depressed. She seemed to be getting further and further away from John.
Only John himself knew that he was a cheater.
In order to have enough time to travel and train at night, he stayed up late to achieve a new achievement.
[Sleepless people: You only need 2 hours of sleep a day to satisfy your energy for the whole day]
With this blessing, he finally avoided dozing off while staring at Snape's gloomy eyes.
I just heard that Snape seemed to have gone to the school hospital several times, hoping that Madam Pomfrey would not continue to use euphoria as a stimulant for some students.
Well, this student should not be John.
…
Room of Requirement.
John waved his sword, and under the candlelight, a piece of silver light fell and shattered the target in front of him. He swung his wand in his left hand at the target in the seven o'clock direction.
"Reducto"
The chopstick-shaped tip of the wand flew out with white light and landed on the target, which exploded into a pile of debris.
Compared with the initial explosion, which was just a little bit explosive, it is now a qualitative improvement.
After training, John rested for a while and prepared to leave.
Tomorrow is the Halloween party, so I have to be in good condition.
The day after tomorrow, my two-month trophy room punishment will come to an end.
Slytherin's common room was underground, and he needed to walk back to the first floor from the eighth floor.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of shortcuts in Hogwarts. When he reached the corridor on the first floor, he saw Bloody Barrow.
This taciturn ghost of Slytherin seemed to have gone out of his way to wait for him.
Chapter 14 Big Sword and Ghost
"Mr. Barrow."
As he approached the Slytherin common room, John lifted the Disillusionment Curse.
However, John was not embarrassed about being caught on a night trip. Instead, he was curious about what Bloody Barrow was doing here.
Staring at the night outside, Bloody Barro had thoughts in his eyes.
"It was you, the Slytherin who snuck out."
Bloody Barro is a very scary ghost, with hollow eyes, a thin face, and silvery blood stains on his robes.
Peeves fears nothing but this ghost, to the point where he trembles when he hears his name.
John could tell that the blood stains on Bloody Barrow represented a past event. Although he was curious, he had no intention of uncovering other people's scars.
It seems that Bloody Barrow knows that someone often sneaks out, but he doesn't know who it is.
John nodded, and Bloody Barrow looked him up and down with a strange look on his face.
After all, anyone who sees a wizard carrying a big sword on his back will feel strange. Bloody Barro said: "What are you doing out there?"
"Practice, I think I need to work harder to be worthy of Slytherin."
There are never too many nice words. John's words made Bloody Barrow shake his head, "You are very hardworking, but I think you are more like..."
Gryffindor.
He didn't finish his words, it was so similar.
When Bloody Barrow was alive, he was during the period of the Four Giants. Because he failed to pursue Helena Ravenclaw, the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw, he killed Helena Ravenclaw. Sad and self-blaming, he chose suicide to end himself.
So he met Godric Gryffindor, the founder of Gryffindor, who was also obsessed with swordsmanship and fighting. For this purpose, he even asked the goblin to forge a silver sword.
It's just that the silver sword made was too perfect, which made the goblin greedy, so Godric Gryffindor had to fight the goblin.
The result is obvious. Although the goblins have always claimed that Gryffindor stole their swords, no goblin dared to come to Hogwarts to get it back.
Compared to Salazar Slytherin, John is exactly what Godric Gryffindor looked like when he was young.
Merlin's beard.
Who knows if that old hat is broken and will actually send a copy of Gryffindor to Slytherin.
"I'm here to tell you that there are other things at night that are dangerous, so be careful."
Taking back his thoughts, Bloody Barro hadn't said so many words for a long time.
John's mind moved and he thought of Quirrell.
Judging from the Marauder's Map, Quirrell often leaves Hogwarts.
Bloody Barrow is the most special one among the four ghosts. He has the ability to become invisible.
He must have discovered something, so he came to warn.
"I know Mr. Barrow, I will be careful."
Not refusing the ghost's kindness, John couldn't wait to take out the Marauder's Map after returning to the room.
"I solemnly swear that I have no evil intentions!"
A map of Hogwarts appeared on the parchment. Apart from professors like Snape who caught students, John saw Quirrell's name.
Quirrell's name bypassed the patrolling professors and Filch, and left outside Hogwarts Castle.
"Where is he going?"
John was confused. Quirrell left the castle in the middle of the night. Where was he going?
Unfortunately, the location displayed on the map is limited to Hogwarts, and further locations such as the Forbidden Forest cannot be displayed.
"Are you going to the Forbidden Forest?"
After thinking about it, John felt that if he didn't leave Hogwarts, Quirrell would only have one direction, and that would be the Forbidden Forest.
There are many magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest, including werewolves and centaurs, as well as pure unicorns.
"Bloody Barrow said it was dangerous, did you mean Voldemort?"
Thinking of Voldemort, John's sense of crisis intensified.
Although this second-generation Dark Lord does not have the influence that spreads throughout Europe like the first-generation Dark Lord, Voldemort has no lower limit.
For his own benefit, Voldemort has never had any sense of propriety, justice, or shame, and he would not feel the slightest shame even if he cast the Death Curse on a baby.
If Voldemort had the magnanimity of a generation of Dark Lords, John wouldn't be afraid of him at Hogwarts.
"No, we still need to strengthen!"
Putting his big ears on Tom's eyes, John didn't want to place his hopes on illusory prophecies.
Who knows if the prophecy is true or not, and it’s not like Hogwarts has never had people die.
…
October 31st, Charms class.
