Chapter 67
But in a short period of time, Harry has become synonymous with heir.
There was even a conspiracy theory that Voldemort was afraid that Harry would take away the position of the Dark Lord before he killed him, which made John laugh.
A snowstorm brought an end to the afternoon herbal medicine class.
Harry was taken away by Professor McGonagall, John was in the Great Hall, and Percy was sitting next to him drinking warm pumpkin juice.
"Sorry, we didn't find it. I looked for Harry's luggage three times."
Listening to Percy's apologetic words, John shook his head helplessly and said, "Percy, you have to believe Harry, he can't be the heir."
"Okay." Percy agreed.
John knew that he still had doubts about Harry, but John didn't reveal it.
Harry's Parseltongue actually reminded John that maybe he could use Harry to open the Chamber of Secrets.
But now that Harry was taken away by Professor McGonagall, he had to wait.
"I'll prove he isn't."
John assured Percy that he was the savior. What if he gave up the job and gave up the job due to suspicion.
Percy left, and John took out the Marauder's Map and looked at it.
No one has been to the girls' bathroom except Harry and the three of them for a long time. The basilisk can't get out until the basilisk opens the secret room. Hogwarts is safe.
"What are the three of them doing there?"
Thinking of the smell of brewing potion last time he went in, John looked a little weird.
The three little ones shouldn't be brewing the magic potion in there, right?
The potion is boiled in the girls' bathroom. Does it smell like in this picture?
In fact, John is also a well-fed man who doesn't know how hungry he is. He has a Room of Requirement that he can switch to at any time, but Harry and the others don't.
It can't be made in the Gryffindor common room, right?
Harry emerges from Dumbledore, who asks him what he knows, which he hides.
Because Ron said that hearing other voices may not be a good thing, he chose to hide it because of his psychological mischief.
It was just the rumors in the school that made him irritated, especially when he secretly put on the Sorting Hat in the principal's office.
That old hat actually still thinks that he should go to Slytherin.
This all made him doubt whether he was the heir of Slytherin.
Hermione saw his troubles, had an idea, and said: "You can ask John, he will help you."
"John?"
Harry recalled another scene. On the duel stage, from his perspective, he saw John's eyes change.
Those eyes were like the eyes of a snake.
He hesitated for a while and said, "Will it be troublesome?"
Hermione knew John very well and affirmed: "John will definitely wait for you to come over. You know he is very good to his friends."
friend?
Harry was silent for a moment.
In the end, Harry chose to go find John.
At the castle covered bridge, Harry came over with some anxiety.
John was not surprised to see him coming and said softly: "Are you obsessed with your differences?"
"What about John, do you think I am the heir of Slytherin?" Harry stared into John's eyes.
John chuckled, his smile extremely cheerful.
"Stop making trouble, you are the savior, how can you be the heir of Slytherin."
As if he heard some joke, John kept laughing.
Harry was a little irritated by the laughter, "That's enough, it's not funny."
Harry was shocked by how loud he shouted.
John stopped laughing, stared at Harry, and said seriously: "You are not the heir of Slytherin, at least not now."
Seeing that Harry was still doubting and hesitating, John chuckled and said: "Rumors stop only for the strong, Harry. People who are strong enough will not care who is whose heir."
Harry trembled inwardly and looked at John, seeing that he was not joking.
Harry sighed and said, "If only they were like you."
"You can't expect everyone to be like this. The strong lead the weak. This is the unchanging truth."
John held his hands on the railing of the covered bridge and looked at the place covered with snowflakes in the distance.
…
Christmas is here.
Many people left the school, but not all of them left.
There are even some Muggle wizards who stay at school because John Wick gives them a sense of security.
"John Wick will protect us just as he protects Justin Finch-Fletchley."
The scene in the dueling club gave John so much favor among the Muggle wizards that they even felt that John was their patron saint.
Some people have a picture of John fighting the basilisk next to their bed, as if to protect them.
Get up in the morning.
John received many packages.
He opened one. It was from Cedric.
Inside was a new style of small handbag, which he seemed to think John liked.
There are a lot of gifts. If you want to open them, you can open them all day.
John chose to open it again at night. When he walked out of the dormitory, he saw a blonde girl and a black-haired girl.
"Daphne and Pansy, they didn't come home?"
It was a little strange that they didn't go home, but John didn't take it to heart.
Malfoy was already waiting for John in the common room. He saw John come out and complained a little: "You asked me to wake up so early, but I ended up going to bed late."
"I wasn't staying up late, I was planning a project for you."
Malfoy rolled his eyes at John when he heard this, and said it as if it was true.
Malfoy didn't go back for Christmas, he wanted to strengthen himself in school.
At the Dueling Club, he and Harry exchanged curses and ended up hanging.
Although there was an own goal later, it did no harm to Harry at all.
He approached John and asked to strengthen him, and John naturally agreed.
The two left the Slytherin dungeon and came to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
Since you want to train, you naturally need a spacious place.
John took out the Boggart, a cabinet that Malfoy knew all too well.
John would take it out every time he went to class. He always wondered how on earth so many creatures could fit in it.
So the two began to teach each other step by step. Of course, John was responsible for speaking and Malfoy was responsible for practicing.
In the evening, before the sky completely darkened, John had to stop training as he headed to the Room of Requirement.
When Malfoy returned, he met Goyle and Crabbe. These two followers always did whatever Malfoy did.
Seeing the two of them dumbfounded, he kindly led them back.
Little did they know that the two people at this time were Harry and Ron.
And Malfoy likes to show off once he is free. He knows many inside stories from Lucius Malfoy, such as the Chamber of Secrets that was once opened.
…
"The elixir of happiness is really difficult to get."
John couldn't help but shake his head when he looked at the elixir that had not yet been successfully refined.
It is indeed the most top-notch potion. Not to mention the long refining time, it should not be sloppy.
Potions are a branch of alchemy. John has alchemy skills and has also learned potions.
Now that he has reached level 3, he can be considered an experienced alchemist.
After putting the materials needed for the elixir, John looked at it for a while and confirmed that there was no problem.
In the Room of Requirement, he attempts to imbue Ironwick's sword with new enchantments.
"Dragon blood can enhance the fire spell, so what can other magical creatures enhance."
John pondered for a while, not yet deciding what kind of enchantment to arrange for Ironwick's sword.
After all, it is not an alchemical product like the Sword of Gryffindor. The Sword of Ironwick is still a Muggle item.
If a mistake is made, the entire sword may be scrapped, which is a bit troublesome.
After struggling for a while, John temporarily put aside the idea of enchantment.
He reached out his hand without using his wand and tried to cast a spell without a wand.
"Emotion, I need an emotion."
John closed his eyes and meditated, his emotions driving the magic.
The expression on his face gradually changed to anger, and John raised his hand and clapped it.
The chest of the human-shaped target in front of him exploded.
"Huh... are you angry? Although it is difficult to control, you can do it."
When it comes to the simplest and most extreme emotion, anger is a good choice.
John just thought about someone forcing him to eat stargazing pie, and his anger came out.
It is indeed possible to cast spells without a wand. John tried it several times and was able to use simple magic when he was extremely angry.
There was no shortage of dinner parties in the castle, and John headed to the dinner party after finishing his training.
On the way, he met Goyle and Crabbe who woke up in a daze. He was a little strange.
…
Chapter 79 Uncle’s Gift and Catgirl Hermione
John's 'unsociability' was already common in Slytherin.
You rarely see John at dinner, even at Christmas dinner.
By the time John arrived, the dinner was over.
But when he sat down, a roasted and steaming turkey, potatoes and bread emerged from the golden plate in front of him.
"Thanks."
He thanked him softly, not sure if the house elves working in the kitchen could hear him.
Since he often missed dinner, John became familiar with the house elves in the kitchen.
They always left one for John at dinner, and it was no different today.
He cut a piece from the turkey with a knife, took out the little remaining Lao Gan Ma and spread it on the bread.
After one bite of turkey bread and Lao Ganma, John narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.
After finishing dinner, John returned to the Slytherin dungeons.
Malfoy was furious. When he saw John, he said warily: "Are you John?"
