Chapter 214 [2 in 1 Big Chapter] What is Black Magic
·
He Dian Bai Kai Shui
The name of the Death Curse caused the atmosphere in the classroom to freeze instantly.
"Don't be so nervous." Professor Luping said with a chuckle at this time, "I just think it is necessary to spare a class time to tell you about the Death Curse and other things that are evil and lethal. of magic.”
"They are not that scary. What is scary is just the wizards who use them to kill innocent people."
"For example---the person who can't even say his name..."
Most of the little wizards showed frightened expressions, and a few Muggle-born children noticed the atmosphere in the classroom and felt a little strange.
"To be honest, I'm very confused. What are you confused about?"
"This is something you should know in the first grade, but I looked through the lesson plans left by the two professors before me. Oh no, to be precise, only one professor left the lesson plans."
A few sneers suddenly appeared in the crowd and disappeared immediately.
"No one among them has ever told you about this type of magic..."
Professor Lupine took a few deep breaths, glanced at all the little wizards in the room, and paused on Harry.
"I think it is necessary for me to make up this basic lesson for you."
"In the magical world, there are three notorious magics---which are also symbols of black magic. Can someone tell me what these three black magics are?"
There was silence in the field, the little wizards pursed their lips tightly, and most of them had clear fear and panic on their faces.
"No one knows? Or are you all afraid?" Professor Luping chuckled, "Let's change the question. In your opinion, what is black magic?"
It was quiet for a while, and then a dozen arms stood up.
"Mr. Thomas, you answer." Lupine named a student at random.
Dean Thomas didn't seem to expect that Professor Lupine would point to him. He stood up, glanced in the direction of Slytherin, and then answered loudly.
"Professor, I think that black magic is a branch of magic. They are generally evil, perverted, and crazy." Dean took a deep breath and then spit it out. "Wizards who learn these magics usually like Use them to torture innocent people for fun, or for some horrific purpose."
He spoke louder and louder, looking at Slytherin frequently, as if they were those shameful dark wizards who like to torture innocent people with dark magic.
"Those who use this kind of magic should be imprisoned in Azkaban! We should work hard to learn Defense Against the Dark Arts and completely eliminate these scum."
Professor Lupine did not nod in approval of Dean's words, nor did he shake his head in denial. He just waved his hand for him to sit down.
"Does anyone else have a different answer?"
The little Slytherin snakes immediately raised their hands. Dean's frequent glances just now made the little snakes a little angry. They were eager to refute this Gryffindor.
"Then you do it, Draco Malfoy? Right?"
Draco obviously didn't expect Lupine to click on him. He raised his hands for a moment, then stood up, straightened his hat first, then glanced at Gryffindor and said loudly.
"I don't agree with what that stupid lion said."
"Who are you calling a stupid lion?!" Dean, who had just stood up to answer the question, immediately slapped the table and stood up, glaring angrily.
"Whoever speaks out, is the one." Draco sneered.
Dean still wanted to open his mouth to refute.
"Mr. Thomas!" Professor Lupin had to stand up. "Sit down first. We might as well listen to see what different opinions Mr. Malfoy has."
Dean sat back with an indignant look on his face.
Malfoy turned his head triumphantly and looked directly at Lupin at the desk:
"My father once told me that whether it is black magic or so-called white magic, they are all magic. There is no distinction between them. It depends on where you use magic and what purpose you use it for. "
"Sometimes, we should use our brains." Draco nodded and glanced contemptuously at Gryffindor, "Instead of rushing in without a strategy like a troll, use black magic when necessary. If it can achieve the goal we want, then it is definitely not evil, perverted, or crazy."
"I've finished my answer." Malfoy sat down without waiting for Professor Lupin's reply.
Lupine was not annoyed by Draco Malfoy's attitude, but looked at the other two houses, and randomly named a few more people, asking them to get up and answer.
The stagnant atmosphere caused by the Death Curse and Voldemort mentioned before suddenly disappeared, and the class became more like a debate.
Even if they are not called upon by Professor Lupin to answer questions, the little wizards will still have their own discussions in the audience.
"What is certain is that anyone who uses black magic will be imprisoned in Azkaban by the Ministry of Magic. This shows that black magic itself is evil and terrible! My father works in the Ministry of Magic, and he has told me many such things. ." Moen loudly fed Justin his thoughts on the side.
"Don't you Muggles also have wanted criminals? There is a Muggle in the photo ball holding a paper and reading."
"That's right...but..." Justin seemed to have different opinions.
For a time, the classroom was noisy, with supporters and refutations of each argument.
No one noticed that Professor Lupine hadn't asked the little wizard to answer for a long time.
"Children." Professor Lupine's voice was very weak in the noisy environment, but it reached the ears of every little wizard very accurately. This was the first time Professor Lupine showed his magic skills in class.
"Lupin seems to be a member of Dumbledore's elite armed group. He really shouldn't be underestimated." Soul thought to himself.
The little wizards gradually became quiet and focused their attention on Professor Lupine, who was holding the edge of the lecture table with one hand.
"What you said is actually correct." Professor Lu Ping smiled and nodded, "But they are not correct either."
"In other words, it's too one-sided."
"Mr. Thomas said that black magic is evil and perverted, and those who use black magic should be imprisoned in Azkaban. Then, everyone here, including me, including Principal Dumbledore, should be in Azkaban now." Zkaban is under the guard of the dementors."
The little wizards were in an uproar and started talking again.
"Why do you say that, Professor?" Dean Thomas asked loudly.
"You know, dark magic is a general term. I believe Professor Flitwick must have told you that the wizard's emotions are a very important component in the process of releasing magic."
"Black magic is a general term for magic with negative emotions."
"Let me give you an example that everyone will cast - the floating spell."
Professor Luping gave an example that surprised everyone, and the little wizards immediately started talking again.
"Don't worry, why did I say that the Levitation Curse can actually be black magic? As Mr. Malfoy said, there is no distinction between black magic and white magic. In fact, the boundaries between them are very blurred."
Draco Malfoy immediately stood up and bowed to his classmates in his college, with a look of color on his face that made Soul shake his head.
"I just said it." Lupine gave Malfoy a gentle look, and Malfoy immediately sat down obediently. Although the child was spoiled by his family and looked like he had not been beaten by society, he still had some feelings for the professor. So a little awe-inspiring.
"Dark magic is a general term for magic with negative emotions. Imagine that with malicious intent, you use a levitation spell to bring an innocent Muggle or a wizard without the ability to resist to the sky, and then let him fall freely, causing them to death, at this time, the floating spell you used is black magic!"
"So, Professor." A little witch in the Ravenclaw Square raised her hands and stood up, "Dark magic is essentially a kind of power, and the difference lies in the person who uses it?"
"Oh, that's a very good question, Miss Bute." Professor Lupine motioned for her to sit down. "This brings up what Mr. Malfoy said, what is the purpose of using magic? If so, this If your purpose is not pure, if you have quite strong malice, and may even take your life, then when you use this magic spell to achieve your goal, it is evil and terrible."
"We generally call this kind of person a dark wizard."
"In fact, there is no good or evil in power. The difference lies in the person who uses it. Of course, this must exclude some really evil, terrible, and even crazy curses, such as the pure Death Curse, which can make a wizard for no reason. The earth was deprived of its life.”
"Then do you know how to kill yourself? Professor."
This was a question raised by a little wizard from Gryffindor, which immediately made the classroom extremely quiet.
"I will." Professor Lupine's answer made the little wizards take a breath. Compared with the other two Unforgivable Curses, the Death Curse became even more famous through the spread of the terrorist - the Bald Socket Monster.
"This is normal." Professor Luping smiled slightly, "I will only use it when facing extremely vicious people. No one stipulates that I should not resist when facing someone who wants to take my life. ?”
"The Death Curse is a very useful magic. It only requires the pure malicious emotion of the wizard, and the requirements for magic power are not that stringent."
Having said this, Professor Lu Ping's face turned serious.
"The premise is that when you use it, you will not be addicted to the powerful sense of power control it brings to you. I sincerely hope that you will never use it."
"Can you teach us?" This is the voice coming from the Slytherin camp. I don't know who it is. He is hidden in the crowd.
"Of course...impossible." Professor Luping shook his head seriously, "In my opinion, you don't have the conditions to use it at all. There are more magics that are powerful enough to protect yourself. Why should you? What about pursuing a pure black magic that drags you into darkness?"
"Remember, what I explained to you in this class is actually beyond the scope of this class. I don't hope that when I see you again in the future, it will be in Azkaban!"
When he said this, Professor Lupine's voice was full of sternness and warning. Contrary to his original gentle tone, the little wizards suddenly fell silent.
Suer keenly felt that there was a hint of magic in Professor Lupin's voice.
"Let's get down to business. Magic is divided into three levels: jinx, poison curse, and curse. The Death Curse is the highest level. Its power can easily take away a wizard's life. So what is the next level of poison curse? Woolen cloth?"
"For example---Bat Spirit Curse, Front Teeth Crazy Growth Curse. Such spells are classified as poisonous spells. They can cause the target to suffer a certain amount of damage, but they are not fatal."
"So, what does a curse mean? In fact, the obstacle curse you have learned is a curse."
"There are also purer magics with the purpose of taking people's lives or torturing them. These are not among these three types of magic and are generally considered to be pure - black magic, the Cruciatus Curse in the Unforgivable Curse, that is One of the symbols of magic.”
"So regarding black magic, everyone's speeches just now were very exciting, each with their own uniqueness, so now I will explain my thoughts."
Professor Lupine waved his wand gently and used magic to write two words in front of him---'Awe'
Then he wrote---'Defense'
The little wizards were a little confused about these two words, but they made no sound and continued to listen quietly.
"We must always maintain an attitude of awe when it comes to black magic. When I was traveling in the Eastern countries, I heard a saying - 'You can watch it from a distance, but you can't play with it'."
Ailian said... I am familiar with this... Suer complained silently in the audience.
"For black magic, we can understand its principles, but it is best not to learn it."
"Next, defense is the theme of this course. It is also the main purpose of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course. It is also what I will teach you this year."
"It ranks second to awe, that is, we must understand them with an attitude of awe, and then find ways to defend against them. This is what you should learn."
After saying that, Professor Luping raised his eyes and looked out the window. It was already approaching dusk.
"Okay, that's it for today's class. I originally planned to bring you a new dark creature---the banshee in this class, but I can only put it in the next class."
"Then, I won't interrupt your happy weekend. I won't assign any homework for this class."
Some of the little wizards who hated homework immediately cheered.
"Don't worry." Professor Luping said, "I hope you can think carefully about what black magic is after class, and how you should treat them when you encounter them in the future. This is a very important issue."
"Some people will definitely tell you that learning black magic is the fastest and the shortest way to increase your strength, but as a professor, I hope that you can be down-to-earth and climb up step by step. To paraphrase a sentence I heard during my travels .”
"There is no shortcut to success. Often when you stand on what you think is a shortcut, the abyss is already staring at you."
"get out of class off!"
ps: Two chapters are posted together, and there will be another update later, a total of three chapters. I have made up for it from the day of leave to now~
"Don't be so nervous." Professor Luping said with a chuckle at this time, "I just think it is necessary to spare a class time to tell you about the Death Curse and other things that are evil and lethal. of magic.”
