Volume 1 I Don't Want the Philosopher's Stone Chapter 26 Nicolas Lemay

Daphany didn't look for the Mirror of Eris again. She had a lot more self-control than Harry. Not to mention that Dumbledore had actually moved the Magic Mirror to hide the Philosopher's Stone a long time ago.

Hermione hasn't been happy lately, and Daphany guesses there are two reasons. One is that they have yet to find out who Nicolas Lemay is. This is normal, the name is not even so familiar to most adult wizards. After all, Nicolas Lemay was a man from 600 years ago; The second is that Hermione has recently discovered something she is not good at - wizarding chess.

The rules of wizard chess are actually similar to chess, except that the pieces are more violent. In fact, Hermione has a strong logical ability, and she should be good at board games. Indeed, Hermione's talent at chess was not bad, but she had just met Ron and Harry, who played better.

Harry was stuffed into a closet from an early age, and his entertainment was limited. Chess is one of them. When not instructed by the Dethries, Harry was able to play a little chess, himself and himself. Therefore, chess skills can be regarded as very outstanding among their peers.

And Ron, although he has many brothers and sisters, Pierre and Charlie are much older than him. Percy is obviously not the kind of good brother who will play with his little brother, and it is possible to accompany his sister once in a while. Fred and George were willing to take Ron with them, but Ron was reluctant to follow the two of them. These two pranksters, with their little brothers, are more of a joke about him.

As for Ginny...... Just as the brothers didn't want to take Ron, Ron didn't want to take his little sister with him. And as the only girl in the family, Ginny is still quite favored, and she doesn't need Ron to watch.

So although he has a big family, Ron actually plays with himself more often than not. Playing chess with himself, he didn't have Harry to be sneaky and didn't have as many chores to do, so he had more time to spend playing chess and figuring out chess. So Ron's chess skills are really superb, at this age.

Even though Hermione was not as miserable as she was with only two friends in the original book due to her appearance, she also didn't have any girlfriends. So she played chess in the academy with only Harry and Ron besides Daphany, and the result was bloodbathing! She was so abused that she almost lost interest in board games.

The one who helped Hermione lose interest in board games once and for all was Daphany. Unfortunately, Daphany is also a chess master.

In terms of chess alone, Daphany is better than Harry, but not as good as Ron. Although Daphany has the memory of three lives, she has not played chess before. However, the talent is average, and the time under it is not too long, so it is comparable to the level of Harry, and when it meets Ron's real guns, he will definitely be abused. But! But Daphany has strong mental power, she can take her mind by mind, she knows how the other party wants to go, and how she wants to go next!

Yes, Daphany cheats! Neither Hermione nor Harry noticed it, however. Their feeling is that Daphine's chess skills are amazing, and her every move is calculated by Daphany.

As for Ron, he didn't play chess with Daphany. If Daphany doesn't take the initiative to find him, he naturally won't take the initiative to find Daphany. So I haven't understood the horror of hanging up.

Tortured by the only three friends in the house, Hermione completely lost interest in chess. She didn't think she was a good fit for the game.

For Hermione, who has been a top person since she was a child and rarely suffers blows, it is normal to find someone who can't find anyone, can't play chess, and is not in a beautiful mood.

Hermione hadn't come out of her depression yet, and Harry was starting to get depressed.

The second round of the Quidditch House Cup is about to begin. Dumbledore wasn't there in the first half of the first game of the first round, so Quirrell dared to make a small move. Dumbledore watched the whole game in the following games. With Dumbledore present, Quirrell naturally didn't dare to mess around. However, the Ministry of Magic suddenly reported that Dumbledore would be away for about two weeks, and there were exactly two games in between, one of which was Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff.

It wasn't the game itself that frustrated Harry, of course, as he had been looking forward to the second round for a long time. But the bad news, at least in his opinion, is that Snape will be refereeing for the next few games.

"Does Snape know about Quidditch?" Ron complained indignantly, "Why does he think he's more professional than Mrs. Hooch? ”

"I don't feel good!" Hermione and Ron had a rare agreement on this matter, after all, several people thought that it was Snape who cast a spell on Harry in the first game: "Wouldn't it be easier for him to act on Harry as a referee?" ”

"Even if he doesn't do anything, I don't believe he can judge fairly!" Harry argued, "He hates the Gryffindor students, especially me!" ”

"Or...... Don't go to the game," Hermione advised.

"How about pretending to be sick?" Ron also proposed.

"Or pretend to break your leg while training?" Hermione's suggestion was escalating.

"I really broke my leg!" Ron directly opened a big move: "Anyway, Madam Pomfrey can definitely be cured." ”

Harry was speechless at the two friends, of course, it wasn't just the three of them who were struggling, the entire Gryffindor Quidditch team was shrouded in Snape's shadow.

The trio's 'broken leg' discussion was unaware of Daphne, but what made her a little puzzled was that apparently the trio hadn't found Nicolas Lemay yet.

Is it so late? Daphany was a little confused. She couldn't remember the details, and she couldn't remember how the trio had found them in the end. Could it be because of something that happened to my little butterfly? Somewhat worried, Daphany thought about it, and decided to make it happen.

Ron and Harry have been worrying about Quidditch lately, and the only one left to find Nicholas Lemay is Hermione. Hermione was also able to find someone in a single way, and that was the library. Apparently he had gone through the records of modern and contemporary magicians, and still found nothing.

On the first weekend after Christmas, Daphany bumped into a lone Hermione in the library.

Hermione's face was not very good, and her mood was a little bad after a continuous unsuccessful job search.

"Honey, your face is not very good!" Daphany teased little Lori in a slightly playful tone.

"Yes...... Is it......" Hermione was a little embarrassed, because the object of suspicion was the head of Slytherin, and Hermione was actually hiding from Daphany intentionally or unintentionally. Otherwise, she could have asked Daphany for advice, after all, Daphany was a member of the wizarding world, and there was a greater probability that she knew a lot of things he didn't know.

"Take care of your body, our girls' youth is very limited, after all, we are not Nicolas Lemay!" Daphany said with a smile that seemed to be unintentional.

"Who?" Hermione's eyes lit up.

"Nicolas Lemay, haven't you heard?" Daphany feigned a surprised expression: "Even in the world of ordinary people, he is very famous, right?" He is the greatest alchemist of all time, the legendary immortal! ”

"Ah...... Oh, I'm sorry Daphany, but I suddenly remembered that there was something else to do, so let's go first, and get back to talk! Hermione's face was full of excitement, and she hurriedly said goodbye to Dafanie and ran out of the library quickly.

"Really, she was originally quite a steady girl, but she became reckless when she entered the Lion Courtyard." Daphine chuckled and continued to look for books that interested her. The news has been revealed, and the rest of the things should be fine, right?

The next day, the Quidditch match began.

Apparently, the Gryffindor lion cubs had a good reason for Snape's concerns. Snape fully embodies the essence of the black whistle referee in the ordinary world. Three penalties were awarded to Hufflepuff in a row. However, the match ended with a Gryffindor victory after Harry caught the Golden Snitch super quickly in history.

There were a few hiccups after the game, and Ron and Malfoy got into a fight. Braque and Goyle try to help, but are stopped by Neville, who musters up courage.

Neville and Burak couldn't get into a fight. Because Neville didn't dare to take the initiative after all, he just tried to make a defensive state. But Goyle and Braque really didn't dare to do it.

How ruthless Daphany was, the two of them and Malfoy had experienced it countless times together. Daphany said that she was going to cover Neville, and the two of them would definitely not dare to stand by and hear. In fact, even Malfoy didn't dare to bully Neville.

The result was a heads-up battle between Ron and Malfoy.

If the two sides use magic to duel, Malfoy may be able to gain a slight advantage. But Ron rushed up to play hand-to-hand combat like a hungry dog, and Malfoy had no solution.

Ron, who has been bullied by his five older brothers since he was a child, is not proficient in hand-to-hand combat, but he still has some routines. Malfoy, on the other hand, had no experience in fighting at all. As for being beaten by Daphany, the pure beating with too big a gap can only accumulate experience in being beaten, and cannot be used to beat each other. So Malfoy was beaten badly, although Ron was not very good, but at least he was much better than Malfoy.

Later, the Slytherin Quidditch team played against the Hufflepuff team, and I don't know if it was the Seeker Terrance who was sprayed too much by his teammates, so he worked hard or just shit luck. The Slytherins finally grabbed the Golden Snitch, and Slytherin took Hufflepuff by a huge margin of 290:40.

Hufflepuff's chasers are only half a body away from Terrence, arguably just a little bit closer. Look at his dejected look, Daphany...... It's a bit dark. If nothing else, this guy's Hogwarts Quidditch Path is like this. Next year, Hufflepuff's unborn talent, the white-faced Cedric, will be the main chaser. Daphany had heard Flint say more than once that Hufflepuff's alternate chaser was talented. These words are usually used to provoke Terrance.

Daphany's impression of the white-faced Cedric is basically stuck in the fact that he won the game and lost his life. The other original plots are not very impressive. However, the hand-to-hand combat with Harry in the labyrinth in the H version he watched in his previous life impressed him deeply and disgusted.

The game was over, and Slytherin still led the standings with all wins. And thanks to the big win over Hufflepuff, the goal difference has also improved. On the contrary, Gryffindor was in the match against Hufflepuff, and because Snape's black whistle Harry quickly caught the impression of the snitch, the difference was very small. The difference in goal difference between the two teams has been narrowed a lot all of a sudden.

However, this is not something that Daphany needs to pay attention to, and the game will naturally be pondered by Flint. The goal difference or something, Flint can calculate it clearly with his not very bright brain.

Daphany is more concerned about the trio's recent developments than the competition. The three of them already knew the identity of Nicolas Lemay, and they should have almost guessed about the Philosopher's Stone. So according to the plot...... It's time for HP's world's first dragon to appear!
