Chapter 285 Ancient Runes and Professor Babling
Rita Skeeter's report sparked a wave of excitement, but it didn't last long.
Mainly since the second week, it has been raining at Hogwarts.
The gloomy weather and continuous rain made everyone feel unhappy, and the damp cold air penetrated into the castle, and many little wizards caught a cold.
Madam Pomfrey had to brew a large amount of refreshing potion in advance.Although this potion has an immediate effect, people who drink it will have white smoke coming out of their ears for several hours.
George was caught too, and he joked that he looked like an old steam train now.
Fred thought it was very interesting, and he also asked Madam Pomfrey for a bottle of refreshing medicine even though he didn't have a cold.
Then the two smoke together...
In this case, Kyle finally waited for the first ancient rune lesson.
The classroom of ancient runes is on the third floor of the west tower. The professor in charge of this course, Bathhida Babbling, is a witch with gray pupils, about 40 years old.
But there are rumors that she has been a professor at Hogwarts for more than 50 years, and it is not known whether it is true or not.
As the most difficult subject at Hogwarts, there are only sixteen people in the Ancient Runes classroom.
Because the number of people who choose this course is too small, this is already the owner of the four colleges.
After class, Professor Babuling glanced at everyone, a little surprised.
"Are there so many people this year?"
Her voice was very strange, as if it came from a long tunnel.
"That's a lot..."
Kang Na, who also chose this course, whispered, "Are there so few people who choose this course?"
Although her voice was very low, Professor Babling heard it.
"Last year there were nine, and the year before last was even fewer...only seven." She said, "It's rare for ten people to sit in this classroom."
Professor Babling was not as serious as she seemed. After answering Connor’s doubts, she half-jokingly said: “Sometimes I even wonder if it’s possible for the five grades to have classes together, so that I only need One class is enough, and the rest of the time is just enough for me to go on vacation in other countries.
Unfortunately, your Headmaster Dumbledore always disagrees. "
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
After everyone quieted down, Professor Babling said, "Okay, now who is going to say what ancient runes are?"
Qiu, who was sitting next to Kang Na, was the first to raise her hand.
"Ancient runes, also known as ancient rune studies, or runes, were used in many books before the Middle Ages.
In addition, different runic characters will produce specific magic power after being arranged into special symbols, so it is also widely used in alchemy. "
"Exactly, Ravenclaw adds two points."
Professor Babling said: "The application of runes to alchemy involves more complex knowledge, so in most cases, it is usually used to translate those ancient documents.
But if you want to learn..."
She knocked on the table.
On the walls of the classroom, several symbols suddenly lit up, and then a ball of bright light appeared in the center of the ceiling.
"...I can teach you too."
Everyone's eyes lit up immediately.
Casting spells without a wand is a coveted skill.
"Professor, I want to learn this!" said a Gryffindor student excitedly.
"Do you think so too?" Professor Babling asked.
Everyone nods together.
"Okay then, I can teach some basic content briefly, but you have to be prepared." Professor Babuling glanced at all the students with a smile.
"Let's get started, I can't wait..." The other party patted his chest confidently.
But half an hour later, he regretted it.
too difficult!
There are a large number of those runes, and each rune represents at least five kinds of meanings, and some even have as many as a dozen.
Just memorizing these things has already messed up his mind.
Plus, it's even more complicated to line them up correctly for those special symbols.
It is clearly the same rune, but according to different meanings, the way of writing is also very different.
After half a class, he felt as if he didn't remember anything, or what he remembered before, he forgot everything after a few minutes.
Sure enough, there is a reason why there are few people in this course.
Too complicated……
After finally getting out of class, when he raised his head from the "Simple Introduction to Ancient Magic Text", his face was full of... who am I, where am I, and what did I just read.
Of course, the same goes for everyone else.
"As for the application to alchemy, that's about it."
On the podium, Professor Babuling said with a smile: "But normally, we don't need to memorize the sequence and writing methods in class, we just need to understand the meaning of each rune.
This is much easier for you. "
The classroom was silent. Obviously, the students' understanding of "simple" was somewhat different from the professor's.
Just as everyone silently packed up their things and was about to leave the classroom, Professor Babling suddenly remembered something.
"Oh, yes, one more thing."
She said casually: "If you feel that this course is not suitable for you, you can also go to your respective deans to apply for a course change... I will agree before October."
Some people were overjoyed, and suddenly showed a thoughtful expression.
After leaving the classroom, Kyle looked at Kang Na and Qiu and asked, "How do you feel? Do you want to change classes?"
"Of course not." Connor said without hesitation.
"That's right, why do you want to change the class." Qiu said with a smile: "Although it is a bit difficult, Rune is really interesting. No wonder Cedric strongly recommends this class to me, and..."
She looked at Kyle and Connor, raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm a Ravenclaw, I can't lose to you Hufflepuffs, right?"
"Hey, the academy is attacking!" Kyle said angrily.
"Of course not." Qiu said with a smile: "I mean, Ravenclaw has never been afraid of knowledge. The more complicated the content, the more interested we are."
"That's..." Kyle shrugged.
Of those sixteen, half were Ravenclaws.
"However, I always feel that something is wrong with Professor Babling."
Connor said thoughtfully: "Other courses, the first class is the easiest, but she did it the other way around.
I've read "A Simple Introduction to Ancient Runes" before, and the question about writing runes is the last thing to learn, and it's just a brief mention. "
"That's right..." Qiu nodded, "Normal ancient runes are not that difficult at all, and Professor Babling's last sentence... I always feel that she really wants students to change classes."
"However, very few people choose this course."
"It's just that we feel less."
Kyle whispered, "Don't forget what she said before class... There are rarely more than ten people in that classroom."
"Maybe we can ask Cedric and Fred. Maybe they were the same as us when they first took the ancient runes class."
