Chapter Fifty-Nine: Christmas Events

The holding of the dueling club this time had a great impact on the whole school, especially Augustus's three kinds of mixed magic, which made countless people remember it vividly, which also made Augustus's impression of Hogwarts students change greatly. In the eyes of these people, Augustus was the darling of the teacher, erudite, friendly and gentle, and rarely refused questions asked by everyone. is an outstanding student of a standard. But since the three colors that filled the sky in the duel, the majestic spectacle, and the distorted scene, Augustus has become synonymous with mystery and power in the eyes of most of the students in the school, and his age has attached a layer of legend to him, so that his age is already unmatched, and the future is absolutely difficult to guess.

Interestingly, Augustus's shot this time made many people see the hope of fighting against the monster of the secret city, and everyone inexplicably believed that as long as they were by Augustus's side, they could avoid being attacked by the legendary inheritor or creature of the secret room, so whether it was class, eating, or library, lounge, or even the lawn outside the castle, there were countless people sneakily following Augustus more than ten meters around, of course, this does not include the vast majority of Gryffindor students, these brave little lions are never afraid of challenges.

So, sadly, Justin and Nick, who was almost headless, were both attacked, which turned the already tense atmosphere into a real panic. Strange to say, the most panicked thing was what happened to Nick, who almost lost his head. What could do this to a ghost, people asked each other; What terrible force can hurt a person who is already dead? The students were almost scrambling to book seats on the Hogwarts Express, hoping to go home for Christmas.

The dawn of Christmas has arrived, and the weather is cold and snowy in all directions. Augustus got up from his dormitory, and in the corner of his bed was a dense pile of gifts, which this year had significantly more than last year, and most of the people who gave him gifts he couldn't even name. The first is a little Christmas man who can kick the tower dance steps from Harry, who will dance on time whenever you are not more than 5 meters away from him, and once he is out of that distance, he will completely wilt.

Loki sends a wooden bird, which can record what you say, then tell the bird where you want to send it out, and it will arrive exactly where it is, and then play the sound you recorded earlier. It is equivalent to a simple mobile microphone, or with GPS navigation function.

Malfoy and Hermione each gave a book, "The Origin and Use of the Fire Charm" and "The History of the Development and Growth of House-Elves", which were very much in line with their style. Of course, for Augustus, he is more concerned about this book about the fire spell, as far as he knows, the fire spell is a very troublesome black magic, from the user itself, if the control is not good to be devoured, it is absolutely difficult to escape, and there are many people who have been eaten by the fire in history, so if you use it carelessly, this is definitely a spell that is harmful to others and not to yourself, but its power is indeed unquestionable.

Lilian sent a white scarf, in this cold weather, it is very practical, surprisingly, Qiu Zhang also sent a gift, it is a wooden amulet, very beautifully made, it seems that it was recently given to Augustus due to the wind in the secret room, and there are many other gifts, Augustus did not open them one by one.

Exiting the dormitory, he made his way to the Slytherin common room to find Malfoy and his two henchmen discussing something.

Approaching, Malfoy spotted Augustus and hurriedly got up from his chair.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Augustus, didn't you go to the school auditorium for dinner?" Malfoy seemed a little restrained, and although he had been with Augustus for a long time, he still had an inexplicable sense of awe for him.

"No, not very hungry at noon. I like your gift, the book about fire, I just wanted to go to the library to find some information about this spell, and you sent it, it's really timely. Augustus waved his hand and smiled at Malfoy.

Malfoy nodded flatteredly, "If you like it, I guessed that this book would be to your taste before I sent it, and that's right." Crabbe and Goyle smiled inexplicably.

"What are you smiling, you haven't saluted Mr. Augustus, how do you feel that you are becoming more and more rude." Malfoy turned his head to look at the two of them who were smiling innocently on the side, and said viciously.

"Hello, Mr. Augustus." The two hurriedly stepped forward and clumsily greeted each other.

"No need to be polite." Augustus shook his head, and suddenly stared at the two of them with some confusion. The magic fluctuations of the two of them seemed a little weird. The Eyes of Inquiry opened, and the images of Harry and Ron loomed over Crabbe and Goyle, and Augustus frustrated his forehead and turned to sit down in a chair.

Seeing that Augustus had no intention of leaving, Malfoy was pleased to sit down with Goul Crabbe.

"By the way, where we just talked about." Goyle asked, turning to Malfoy.

Malfoy looked at him in amazement, as if he didn't expect him and Augustus to be present, Goyle was able to take the initiative to speak, carefully observed Augustus, and found that he did not have any reaction, Malfoy relaxed. "You know what I mean, Goyle, how many more times do you want me to say it to you?" Malfoy snapped, "Daddy won't tell me the last time the Chamber of Secrets was opened. Of course, that was fifty years ago, and he hadn't been born yet, but he knew everything. He said it was all kept secret, and that if I knew too much, it would look suspicious. But there's one thing I know: the last time the chamber was opened, a mudblood died. So, I'm sure I'll have to die a mudblood this time, it's just a matter of time, I hope it's Granger. He said with relish.

Crabbe clenched his big fists, Goyle gave him a warning look, and then said, "Do you know that the person who opened the secret room last time was caught?" Oh yes, whoever it is, got fired anyway. "They're probably still in Azkaban." "Azkaban.' Goyle asked, puzzled." It's the Wizard's Prison. Augustus explained briefly.

Then Augustus said lightly, "If you want to know about the Chamber of Secrets, I suggest you check out A History of Hogwarts, which has some visions of where Salazar was founded, which is helpful, and you should consider what Salazar's most famous talent is, which will also provide you with clues." Goyle smiled a little awkwardly, "We are only a little concerned, and we don't need to go into details, Mr. Augustus, thank you." ”

"Ho!" Crabbe screamed in a panic, only to see that his hair was turning red and his nose was slowly getting longer—their time was up. Ron was turning back into himself, and Harry knew from the horrified gaze he suddenly threw at him that he must be recovering as well. They both jumped to their feet at the same time. "Go get medicine for a stomachache." Ron muttered. They stopped rambling and swooped out of the Slytherin common room.

"Really, why do these two feel so weird today." Malfoy muttered strangely.

"Maybe it's getting old." Augustus looked at the backs of the two departing, his eyes full of amusement.
