Chapter 57 Transition

""Controlling Emotions, Stabilizing the Foundation of the Curse"?" Mrs. Pings was a little surprised when she heard the words, and looked at Kewen and said, "That is a very unpopular book, and few students borrow it, where did you hear it? said?"

"Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick recommended me to borrow it." Kewen answered truthfully.

"So that's the case." Mrs. Pings understood, nodded and said, "Come here and fill out a loan form."

"Okay madam." Kewen stepped forward, took the quill handed over by the other party, and filled out the loan form.

After filling out, Kewen inserted the quill into the ink bottle, got up and asked, "Madam, can you tell me which bookshelf that book is on? You know, there are more than a thousand bookshelves in the entire library, and by myself, I'm afraid I can't find where the book is."

"Of course." Mrs. Pince said, raising her hand and pointing to an area of ​​the library: "Over there, on the bookshelf numbered 316, if I remember correctly, it should be in the second shelf from the top of the bookshelf."

"Okay." Kewen got the answer, and after responding, he couldn't wait to turn around and walk in the direction pointed by Mrs. Pince.

Behind him, Mrs. Pince's exhortation sounded: "By the way, pay attention to safety when climbing the ladder."

"I'll be careful, thank you Madam for reminding me." Kewen turned his head and smiled and thanked him.

It didn't take long for Kewen on the ladder to successfully find the book. Because he couldn't help being curious, he simply didn't climb down the bookshelf ladder first, but read the book as soon as he got it.

There are more spells recorded in the book than in the previous book. There are 'calm spells' that can reverse your emotions when you are in a negative mood, and there are several spells that can make people feel happy, happy and other positive emotions.

At the back of the book is a very long paper. Kewen glanced at the beginning and found that it was a paper on the relationship between emotions, spells, and wizards' characters.

Without reading any further, Kewen closed the book contentedly, and then climbed down from the bookshelf ladder.

After Mrs. Peace said hello, Kewen left the library and returned to the dormitory to start reading.

...

Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, late autumn passes and winter arrives.

In the past few months, Kewen gradually found that he seemed to have gone through a crisis of confidence without doing anything. Principal Dumbledore no longer peeped at him, and the professors did not alienate him. On the contrary, they were more interested in his study and life. taken care of.

As a result, Kewen gradually let go of his defenses, stopped being an actor, and only became his true self every day, and spent most of his time concentrating on his studies.

Occasionally, when I am in a good mood, I will also participate in gossip chats between some classmates.

Because Kewen's life is basically between the cafeteria, the classroom, and the dormitory, he has several nicknames - Gryffindor nerd, Ravenclaw spy, and enemy of the Sorting Hat.

Of course, these nicknames are all part of a joke, just joking that Kewen seems to have the wrong college.

But if Kewen really transfers to Ravenclaw, I am afraid that no Gryffindor will agree. After all, after a few months, Kewen has already added more than 150 points to Gryffindor.

Even if Professor Snape continued to favor and give points to the Slytherins, Gryffindor's 'House Score' is now 20 points higher than that of Slytherin.

This made Cowen a good friend in Gryffindor, allowing him and students of all grades to talk.

In a blink of an eye, Christmas is coming, and students are looking forward to the short Christmas break. Except for Cowen, of course. After all, he didn't understand why sorcerers had to celebrate the Holy See's festival. Logically speaking, the two should be mortal enemies.

For this reason, Kewen also went to the library to check the materials, and finally found that there were two reasons.

One reason is the old version, because the so-called 'witch removal movement' in the Muggle world was a joke.

At that time, the wizards were very keen to molest the Holy See, deliberately caught by the Holy See, and then used various magic spells to protect their own safety when they were executed, and then jokingly watched the various reactions and expressions of the Muggles in the execution ground.

In the early days, this kind of behavior was very popular among wizards, and the 'fire-proof spell' became a compulsory spell for almost all wizards. Playfully watch the Muggles react.

Therefore, in order to highlight the nobility of wizards and the stupidity of Muggles, the magical world has also designated Christmas at the Holy See as a holiday, for wizards to have fun together on the holiday day and share their experience of molesting Muggles.

As for the second reason, it originated in modern times.

Due to the gradual reform of the wizarding world, children from Muggle and mixed-race families were more introduced into the wizarding world in modern times.

In this way, Christmas in the wizarding world has also been assimilated by more and more Muggles and half-blood wizards. Therefore, Christmas gradually lost its past meaning, and the festival finally became what the Muggle world looked like.

...

The night before Christmas break.

Cowen read Ollivander's letter, and then spread out the letter to reply.

It is a routine to complain that there are too many things that I want to learn, that I feel that my time and memory are not enough, and then I write the learning situation and bonus points of the week into the letter.

Finally, Cowen stated in the letter that instead of picking him up at the train station, Ollivander would go to Penello's house first, and then take the Knight Bus back to Diagon Alley.

After re-checking the reply, and not finding anything missing, Kewen called the owl '咻咻' and handed it the letter.

"Good boy, you don't have to go back to school after delivering the letter." Kewen raised his hand and gently stroked the owl's back feathers, and said softly, "Just stay in the wand shop, I'll go back tomorrow."

"Ouou—" Xiu Xiu responded with a very understanding of human language, and then under the push of Kewen's arm, he flew out of the bedroom window and disappeared into the night sky.

This time, Kewen no longer watched Xiu Xiu leave, but immediately closed the bedroom window.

Because since the arrival of winter, the wind outside the window has been blocked by the castle, which makes it seem a little ghostly howling. Even if the window is blocked, it still can't stop the sound of ghostly crying and wolf howling from entering the bedroom.

For this reason, Kewen had to go to Professor Flitwick to learn a 'silence spell', and put a spell on the window before going to bed every day, so as to ensure that within a few hours of the spell's effect, he can keep himself safe fall asleep.

A good night's dream.

The next morning, despite the cold weather, Kewen practiced exercise on the edge of the cliff, and then returned to the auditorium for breakfast.

After breakfast, the students took their respective salutes, left the school together, and went to the station...
