"Fear is coming!" Ivan waved his wand and tapped it at Spotted's head.

"Squeak! Creak... Squeak squeak..."

As soon as the spell took effect, the gray-black mouse immediately went crazy, its closed eyes widened in an instant, and its mouth let out a bare-eared scream.

Then the powerful claws kicked on the table, and the whole mouse rolled off the table like a fly, knocking down many cups and decorations along the way, and scurrying around the dormitory.

Ivan saw that the effect was so good, and finally put his mind at ease,

Unexpectedly, the principle of the Dread Charm and the Divine Guardian are opposite, the latter requires the caster to recall beautiful and happy things, while the former requires the caster to imagine a terrifying thing or experience into the mind of the caster.

It's like a reverse dementorship, or a horror additive version...

When casting the spell on Spotted, Ivan conceived a scene where Spotted is chased by a black dog all the time.

Perhaps because Spotted was asleep before the spell was cast, the power of the Dread Charm combined with sleep, and the effect of this dark magic was much more powerful than Ivan had imagined.

While Ivan was still rejoicing at the success of casting the Fear Charm, Ron and Harry, who had heard a noise in the break room, also burst in.

Looking at the messy dormitory, Harry almost thought that he had gone to the wrong place, and was about to ask a question, but at that moment, Ron saw the gray-black rats scurrying around in the dormitory...

"Oh no! Spotted.. Spotted! What happened to you? Spotted..."Ron shouted in a broken cry, and in a few quick steps he rushed into the dormitory, pounced on Neville's bed, trying to catch the gray-black rat that had just run away.

But at this time, Spotted was frightened by Ivan's magic, and took Ron for the black dog in his dream, and drilled under the bed with a "whoosh" sound, making Ron easy to find...

"Ivan, what's going on here?" Harry looked at Ivan, who was at the table.

"I'm just practicing spells here." Ivan shrugged his shoulders and then spoke with a slight emptiness. "As you can see, there may have been a small accident..."

Harry looked at Ron, who had gotten under the table and had been left to nothing by the rats, and felt that this accident was not a small accident at all, so he had to sigh helplessly.

"Then we might have to catch a mouse for the night."

Thankfully, it wasn't as bad as Harry thought.

After the three of them tossed for a while, Ivan, who remembered that he was a wizard, seized an opportunity to use the levitation charm to float the spotted and the book and mouse that he was going to hide under the book, and the farce finally subsided.

In the next few days, Ron sulked for several days, and Ivan naturally apologized, and bought some flavored beans for Spotted as a spare food, coupled with Harry's persuasion on the side, Ron didn't hold on to Spotted's matter.

It is worth mentioning that Hermione, who heard about this, bluntly mocked Ron for treating a mouse as more important than a friend, and the two quarreled, and the result was that Ron was almost mad.

Ron also cares more and more about Spotted, and even takes it with him to class, and from time to time he always feels that someone wants to harm his rats.

Ivan continued to live a life of three points and one line in the classroom-library-dormitory, read some basic books, and barely got the opportunity to use a Xueba experience card again, plus the accumulation of the past few days, Ivan's magic proficiency has improved a lot.

As a result, during the class, the grade given by the professor was raised by a notch compared to before!

With the exception of Professor Binns, who teaches history, who gives only general evaluations every time, Ivan has a record of getting excellent grades in other classes.

Especially in the Charms and Transfiguration classes, because Ivan's Transfiguration Charm and Levitation Charm have successfully broken through to the level of Level 2.

At one point, Harry and Ron were stunned to transform a plank, even a little faster than Hermione.

However, it is not so easy to level up, because for each level of the spell increases, the proficiency required for the next level will be doubled.

In addition to studying, Ivan is also looking for the location of the Room of Requirement as a place to test the power of the spell in the future.

In the Gryffindor lounge, it's not always very convenient.

It's a pity that after so many years of reading the original book, Ivan doesn't remember it for a long time, only that it was opposite a tapestry, so that he didn't find it for several days.

It wasn't until Friday of the following week, when Harry received a letter of invitation from Hagrid, that Ivan's regular life was broken.

Of course, there is good news and bad news.

The bad news is that they have to have two Potions classes with Slytherin this Friday.

"If only I could skip this morning, Potions professor Snape is the head of Slytherin, George told me to be careful..."

In the hallway of the aisle, Ron and Ivan talked about the gossip they had heard from their two brothers, and they didn't forget to feed Spot, who was on his right hand.

"Not really, right? Professor McGonagall is also the Dean, and I don't see her favoritism at any time. Hermione retorted.

"I'm not alone... That's what a lot of older Gryffindors say! Ron was dismissive of Hermione's words, and turned to Harry and Ivan.

"You think that's the case, right? Professor Snape has been in the dark all day, and there are even rumors in the school that Professor Snape used to be a dark wizard..."

When it came to the rumors, Ron clearly kept his voice down so that no one else would hear him.

"No way, Professor Dumbledore won't let a dark wizard come to the house." Harry shook his head.

Although at the banquet at the beginning of the school year, Harry felt that Professor Snape, who taught Potions, seemed to dislike him a little, but in the past few days at the school, the professors who taught various subjects were quite good.

Snape couldn't be any worse...

Hermione also nodded repeatedly, and Ron had no choice but to turn his head to look at Ivan.

Ivan was teasing Spotted with a multi-flavored bean at this time, and when he heard the conversation of several people, he glanced at Harry Dao.

"Professor Snape's needle isn't against Gryffindor, I don't know, but it's against us."

Speaking of which, Ivan was also a little depressed, and it was probably impossible for him to get a good evaluation in Snape's class.

After all, he loves and hates Wu and Wu, even if Snape gives him a bad review after class, Ivan is not surprised.

Harry was a little puzzled by Ivan, and he really didn't understand what Ivan meant.

"You mean Professor Snape hates Harry?" Hermione frowned, guessing what Ivan had in mind from the way he looked at Harry earlier.

Ivan admired Hermione's shrewdness in his heart, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he shook his head. "I'm just suspicious, don't you think there's something wrong with Professor Snape's eyes every time he looks at Harry?"
