Chapter 51: Parseltongue

The audience was quiet, everyone was silent but eagerly looking around, they all hoped that someone would stand up and start his performance, but they didn't want that person to be themselves. Even the Petyr sisters were the same, and Padma slammed her sister into the corner to prevent her from waving to the stage stupidly.

I can't let my sister be embarrassed and throw out of Gryffindor, otherwise how will I marry in the future...... Padma covered Parvati's mouth with a blank expression, and there was such a rational thought in her head.

Lockhart was a little embarrassed at this time, and he glanced at Snape, and Snape's dark eyes flashed with cold light, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. "Or? Longbottom and Finley? How are you two? ”

Hearing Lockhart calling him, Neville was so frightened that he almost couldn't stand. But......

"That's not a good idea, Professor Lockhart." The big bat swiped briskly across the stage, its mouth spitting venom uncontrollably. "In terms of Longbottom's current form, he's probably going to show us a little tear peeing on stage... Do you want him to drown Fenrili with tears? ”

In the midst of laughter, Neville's pale round face suddenly took on a trace of abnormal blood.

"How's Malfoy and Potter going?"

…… Brandi, Hermione, and Ron looked at each other amusedly, and they could all guess with their toes what Snape was trying to do, all they wanted to humiliate Harry in the duel arena. Indeed, even if Malfoy didn't have the opportunity to practice magic since he was a child, he should have known a lot under the influence of his family members, and it was not difficult to overpower Harry in terms of spells alone......

However, even Snape was cunning and cunning, probably unexpectedly that Harry's magic level had entered a period of rapid growth ahead of schedule. Although there is still a long way to go before the full potential is fully exploited, there will still be a big advantage against a close Malfoy.

Harry and Malfoy stepped onto the duel stage, and Lockhart and Snape began to cheer them on like coaches to the two boxers. Lockhart was teaching Harry a bells and whistles spell block, but from Harry's confused eyes, he didn't seem to understand the high-end technique of throwing a wand.

"I'm sorry, Professor. Can you throw it again? ”

But Lockhart didn't hear it at all, and he jumped down the stage like a joyful chipmunk, and picked up his wand.

"Well, both sides prepare! Three-two-one-begin! ”

Malfoy quickly raised his wand. yelled: "Oolong out of the hole!" ”

As everyone watched in horror, the head of his wand exploded, and a long black snake burst out of it, landing heavily in the clearing between them, and then raised its head and spat out letters, and began to prepare to attack Harry. The people who were just sticking to the stage screamed loudly and quickly retreated.

"Don't move, Potter." Snape said lazily, and he was overjoyed to see Harry motionless like a clay sculpture, warily eyeing the snake. "Let me get it away......"

"Wait a minute, Professor, I think I can handle this." Harry hurriedly said to him, and he began to recite the Iron Charm a little unfamiliarly, and it was clear that Ron was not the only one who was self-taught. But before he could finish the spell, Lockhart suddenly jumped out—

"Leave me alone!" He shouted, and the wand in his hand pointed at the black snake fiercely, and before he knew what was in his mouth, he heard a soft thud, and the big black snake was raised by the spell several meters high, almost hitting the ceiling - and then it fell down and slapped on the floor.

This angered the black snake, and it gave up on Harry in front of it in a rage, and instead hissed and swam straight in the direction of Justin, its head raised, revealing two sharp fangs.

"Kill you...... Kill you! ”

Harry heard such a sound in his ears, and he immediately realized that it was the black snake talking, and he quickly opened his legs and ran at the snake stupidly-

"Don't hurt him!"

With an anxious shout, it was incredible, and the snake lowered its head and collapsed to the floor, coiling itself in a circle. It doesn't look like it's going to attack anyone anymore!

Harry's running leg came to a slow, slow stop. He looked into the corner of the audience with friendly and admiring eyes, and he didn't have to rush to fight the big black snake anymore - it looked like she had managed to stop it. But it's incredible, why would this black snake listen to her?

At this moment, there was suddenly another voice in the middle of the crowd, and Harry didn't quite understand why he had successfully prevented the poisonous snake from attacking Justin, but why everyone's faces were still so serious. Justin's expression suddenly matched Neville's, and he dodged to the side in fear, then rushed out of the auditorium in a panic in a scream, Neville following him closely.

Hey? This guy is really interesting! Before leaving, I didn't even say thank you, just now Self saved your life!

……………………

As the strange hissing sound sounded around him, Brandi was relieved to see the snake on the stage relax. Turning around, Self had shrunk behind him at some point, and Luna was curiously touching her face, as if she were touching some rare treasure.

"You're amazing! Sorph~" He admired sincerely, "This magic is awesome, you actually convinced a snake!" How did you do that? ”

Hearing his compliment, Salph seemed to be very useful, leaned her head on Luna's body, and rubbed it vigorously.

"Just talk to it, it's actually quite mild-tempered."

…… If I reasoned with it, it really wouldn't bite me.

Brandi listened to Salph's answer speechlessly, and the corners of her mouth twitched stiffly. He patted her on the head and looked away from Sylph, intending to take a look at the duel on Harry's side, but at that moment, he suddenly noticed something unusual - there seemed to be something too quiet around him, and at least there should be a fight on the stage

And, what about the people next to you?

The students who had just been pressing on their side had unconsciously left them a full ten meters away, and Brandi, Luna, and Salph were inexplicably isolated, forming a huge empty circle. Everyone was looking at them, and there was something in their eyes that made him particularly uncomfortable—fear, and rejection. On stage, Snape had disposed of the large black snake summoned by the spell, and he was staring at Salph: unlike the students, it was a complete shock and disbelief without the slightest negative emotion.

"You are—"

Brandi was about to ask when someone grabbed his hand from behind. Ron whispered in his ear.

"Let's go, let's get out of this ...... first"

He didn't understand what was happening, but Ron's meaning was obvious. So he hurriedly dragged Luna and Salph and hurried after Ron, with sisters Hermione and Pettier walking quietly beside them. Ron didn't say a word at the front, just dragged them all the way to an empty classroom.

He let go of Brandy's hand and looked at him and Salph solemnly.

"Your sister is a parseltongue, what's going on! Why don't you tell us? ”

Everyone was staring at them, which made Sorf shrink uneasily behind Brandy, clutching his robes. Brandi was confused for a moment, and he subconsciously stood in front of Sorph and Luna.

"What are you talking about? What's old-fashioned? ”

"Parseltongue!" Ron glared at him, "Your sister was talking to the snake just now!" ”

"What's wrong with that? The world of magic is so wonderful, it wouldn't be a big deal to have one or two who can talk to snakes once in a while—or is it some kind of rare ability? ”

"Rare?!" Ron snorted in a weak tone, "Merlin...... This is a rarity, and I can tell you very clearly that Parseltongue wizards in all of Europe can count them in a single slap. That's terrible! ”

"But what if you can talk to a snake? Listen, what Salph did was right, and you didn't see that the snake was meek like that after being persuaded by her, maybe it would have changed to a vegetarian diet! A nameless fire began to emerge in Brandi's heart, it was like this since just now, it seems that everyone is rejecting Sharf, and when he uses his unique skills to save people, he will be looked down upon!

At this moment, Hermione finally lowered her voice and spoke, "But the problem is that being able to talk to snakes is Salazar Slytherin's famous skill. So the symbol of the Slytherin school is a snake......"

Brandy's mouth was open, and he finally realized the point.

"It's impossible, Hermione." He stammered, "No kidding, our family is a real Muggle." Didn't you write to me by mail?"

"Not necessarily."

It was Padma who spoke, and she vigilantly pulled her sister behind her to keep her from getting too close to Salph - as Parvati twitched her nose and wanted to sniff Salf like a puppy. "Yes, you're a Muggle, we all know that, but Salf-" She looked deeply at the little girl hiding behind Brandy.

"What about her?"

Brandi was stunned.

Speaking of which, Daddy Kozmo must be a Muggle...... But Sharf's mother, who could it be?

There was silence in the room, except for Luna sleepwalking next to Salph, lazily humming a brisk ditty.

That night, a white owl flew out of Gryffindor's tower.
