Chapter 33: Elemental Magic
"New course? Have you heard? ”
"No, I don't know."
"I know, I heard it's a course called elemental magic."
"Elemental magic, what's that?"
"I don't know, I haven't heard of it."
……
With Dumbledore's announcement, the entire auditorium came alive with all the students discussing the new lesson.
Hundreds of years have passed since the last time a new subject was added, astronomy, and now that a new subject has been added, it's no wonder that students don't pay attention.
Seeing that the students' reactions were so enthusiastic, Dumbledore nodded to Ye Siyu, who was sitting next to Glendoroven Head Minerva McGonagall, and Ye Siyu also stood up and let the students know him.
"Welcome to Professor Siyu Ye from our Elemental Magic Course." , Dumbledore quickly introduced.
"This professor is so handsome."
"No matter how difficult this class is, I must take this class."
"Bang Bang!"
As Ye Siyu stood up, the students burst into warm applause again, especially the female students, who slapped much harder than the boys.
Although they were magicians, they were no different from ordinary women in their treatment of handsome men, not to mention that the male teachers at Hogwarts were either as gloomy as Snape as Potions or as old as Charms Felius Flitwick were too old to read.
Now that there is Ye Siyu, a handsome professor, they are of course excited, even if they can't understand the course, it's good to see a handsome guy like Ye Siyu to take care of their eyes.
"Finally, at the request of the Ministry of Magic, I have unsettling news here. Hogwarts will be hosting a special group of guests for the next period of time, from Dementors from Azkaban to Sirius Sirius Orion Black. After everyone's welcome to Ye Siyu eased, Dumbledore announced another piece of news.
It's just that this news, as Dumbledore said, made the students present feel very uneasy.
Many of the students present had taken the last Hogwarts Express of the day, and had also seen the terrifying Dementors, although it was not clear why those Dementors disappeared in the end, but it did not prevent them from being afraid.
"Dementors will guard every entrance, and while the Ministry of Magic guarantees that their presence will not interfere with our daily activities, we would like to remind you that Dementors are the most evil creatures, and they cannot distinguish between prey and those who stand in their way, so I would like to remind you not to give them a reason to hurt you, Dementors are not born to forgive." Dumbledore did not stop because of the students' fear, but continued to inform the students about the Dementors with a serious expression.
However, he also knew that the students should not be too scared, so he finally added: "But you must remember that happiness is everywhere, no matter how dark it is, as long as we light the lamp of our hearts, then the darkness will no longer be terrible." ”
As he spoke, he used to extinguish and light the candles on the owl microphone to ease the students' fears.
However, his actions had little effect, and the fear in the hearts of the students who had seen the Dementors did not lessen much.
"Headmaster, what should we do if we encounter a Dementor?" , Just as Dumbledore finished speaking, a worried voice came, it was Harry who asked, although Ye Siyu's intervention caused the Dementor to not absorb his happiness, but the Dementor still left a great shadow on his heart.
"yes, what are we going to do?"
"I don't want to run into those guys."
Harry's question struck a chord with the students who had seen the Dementors, and they became worried.
Harry's question made Dumbledore also a little distressed, dealing with Dementors or something, it was just an easy and ordinary thing for him, a wizard who was proficient in all kinds of high-level magic, as long as a Patronus Charm could be solved, but Harry and the others were different, most of them were apprentices who had just been exposed to magic for a year or two, and they had not had the opportunity to contact the Patronus Charm, a high-level magic, and in the face of dark creatures like Dementors, they definitely couldn't resist and couldn't run.
Preventing some mischievous students from teasing the Dementors and dying is why he stresses the issue so seriously.
At this time, Dumbledore noticed that Hermione, who had been playing with Harry, was raising her right hand and waving it non-stop.
"Miss Granger, do you have any questions?" , Dumbledore asked.
"Headmaster, didn't Professor Ye use a magic spell to destroy those Dementors on the train? Can we learn that magic? Hermione immediately asked her doubts, she hadn't forgotten the scene when Ye Siyu killed the Dementors in the train, the warm light made people yearn for it.
"It's up to Professor Ye." Hearing Hermione's question, Dumbledore looked at Ye Siyu again.
He knew about Ye Siyu's destruction of the Dementors yesterday.
According to the Ministry of Magic and Professor Lupin on the train, Ye Siyu only used a similar form of magic similar to the Patronus Charm to destroy most of the Dementors.
You must know that even he, who is known as the greatest male wizard in this world, needs to use some soul-specific magic such as the Unforgivable Spell to destroy the Dementors without any preparation, and this kind of magic is still one-on-one, and it will definitely not be able to eliminate a large number of Dementors in an instant like Ye Siyu.
As for Lupin's possible view of Ye Siyu's Patronus Charm as other magic, he didn't doubt it, because Lupin's next Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson included the Patronus Charm, and he couldn't be mistaken.
So he was also very curious about Ye Siyu's magic.
It's just that he had to deal with the appeasement of the students and the questioning of the Ministry of Magic yesterday, he didn't go to ask immediately, but planned to ask him about the situation alone after the opening ceremony, and now Hermione asked, he also wanted to see what Ye Siyu's magic was all about.
With Hermione's question, the students in the auditorium looked at Ye Siyu again.
"I can teach you as long as you want to learn, of course, it's up to you whether you can learn it or not, because the elemental magic I teach will be very different from the magic you are learning now." , Ye Siyu said with a smile.
Although the principle of using magic in this world is different from that of most worlds, once you learn 'magic', then the rest of the things are actually similar, and even easier to use in this world dominated by spiritual magic.
Of course, because the theories of the two are really far apart, Ye Siyu estimates that there are not many people who can learn it.
"Professor, can we take a look at the so-called elemental magic?"
"Take a look! Glance! ”
As one student took the lead, the rest of the students shouted along.
Dumbledore looked at Ye Siyu and asked him what he meant with his eyes.
"Since everyone wants to see it, I won't spoil everyone's interest, just right, I'm here to show you the magic I want to teach, so that everyone can have a bottom in their hearts." , Ye Siyu stood up and said.
Dumbledore clicked his wand to remove the owl microphone and return to his seat, giving Ye Siyu a place to show his magic.
Ye Siyu nodded to Dumbledore in thanks, and then walked to the center to prepare the Hogwarts students to show off his unique magic.
"The shortest time for everyone here to learn magic should be a year, can anyone tell me what the basic magic is?" , Ye Siyu didn't show it immediately, but asked lightly.
"Me, me, me!" , the most active is still Hermione, who is still waving her raised right hand in the air.
Ye Siyu immediately stretched out his hand and signaled.
"Softening, Cutting, Lockpicking, Levitation, Locking, Repairing, Knockback, Wand, Glow and Fire." Hermione, as a top student, immediately said the spell that the first-year students were learning.
"Very well, can you summarize the characteristics of these spells?" , Ye Siyu continued to ask.
As soon as Ye Siyu's question came out, whether it was Hermione and other students present or the teachers on the stage, they all whispered, and it was the first time they had heard this kind of question.
"Life, whether it's a lock-picking spell, a levitation spell or a repair spell, all spells are for a better life." , Ye Siyu didn't let everyone think for long, and directly said the answer.
When everyone heard this, they all showed a look of sudden realization, just as Ye Siyu said, the spells that the first-year students learned were all for life.
"Professor Ye, what does this have to do with the elemental magic you taught?" Hermione wondered.
"If the magic you usually learn is the magic of life, then the magic I teach is the magic of war." , Ye Siyu said lightly.
"War magic?" , The students showed puzzled looks, not understanding the meaning of Ye Siyu's words.
"Headmaster, I don't think the Great Hall is a good fit for my next magic show, can I change the terrain a little?" , Ye Siyu did not answer immediately, but looked at Dumbledore and asked.
Dumbledore, who was curious about Ye Siyu's so-called war magic, nodded, he also wanted to see what kind of magic Ye Siyu's magic was.
With Dumbledore's instructions, Ye Siyu slapped his hands, the void began to refract, and the auditorium was folded together like lenses, and at the same time, the space of the auditorium was stretched out without listening, turning the auditorium the size of three basketball courts into the size of a football field.
"Wow!"
Seeing this scene, whether it was the graduating seniors or the two-year students such as Harry Hermione, there was a burst of exclamations, they saw this kind of magical picture for the first time.
"Spatial reshaping magic?"
Not to mention the students, even Dumbledore and other long-established wizards had a look of surprise on their faces after seeing this scene.
"There are enough places now." , Ye Siyu, who used the mirror space, said with a smile.
"Professor Ye, is this also a type of elemental magic?" , Hermione asked excitedly.
"This is an advanced use of space magic in elemental magic." , Ye Siyu replied, this is the magic of the Marvel Universe that he used using the magic principles of the Harry Potter world, although it is said that it is impossible to directly enter the mirror world like the Marvel Universe, but it can also create a mirror space that can last for a period of time.
"It's amazing."
"I'm going to learn too."
After learning that this was the so-called elemental magic, the student's face showed an excited look, Ye Siyu's magic was more powerful than all the magic they needed before.
"Alright, I'll now officially show off the elemental magic I'm going to teach later." , Ye Siyu opened his mouth to stabilize the students' emotions, and then walked into the part of the space that was extended by using the mirror space.
"Elemental magic, like its name, is magic that harnesses the elements, what are the elements? In my opinion, the world is an aggregate of elements. Ye Siyu began to explain the principle of elemental magic.
"Fire, water, earth, thunder, wind." , Ye Siyu kept saying the names of the elements in his mouth, one after another in line with the elements Ye Siyu said, and the fist-sized magic ball appeared on the top of Ye Siyu's head and rotated slowly.
"Elemental magic is magic that applies those elements to combat." , Ye Siyu shook his right hand, and the elemental magic balls above his head fell one by one towards the open space not far away, bursting out with various lights, "This is the simplest shaping magic in elemental magic, condensing the elements into magic balls for attack." ”
"Of course, the foundation does not mean that it is weak, as long as you are proficient, then the basic skills can also become a world-destroying existence." , Ye Siyu raised his right hand and a fireball burning with raging fire appeared again.
It's just that Ye Siyu didn't throw it out, but lifted it high.
Under the gaze of everyone, the fireball expanded rapidly, from the beginning only the size of a fist to the size of a basketball slowly expanded, "This is the advanced intermediate magic burst fireball of the elemental magic ball, and the power is several times that of the previous one. ”
But this is not the end, the basketball-sized fireball continued to expand, and instantly turned into a large fireball with a diameter of more than ten meters, like a small sun, and a fiery breath came to the face, making all the people dry, "This is an advanced high-level magic purgatory fireball that bursts a fireball, which can easily blow a house into powder." ”
Seeing that everyone was already sweating profusely, Ye Siyu shook his right hand, and the huge fireball shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally changed back to the size of his original fist.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the current fireball is very different from before, the previous flame orb was red, and now this orb is red and black, and there is no flame on it, it looks like an iron ball that has been burned red.
"The power of shaping magic in elemental magic is that you can control the size and power of the magic at will, for example, the fireball in my hand seems to be a low-level fire magic ball, but the energy it contains has reached the level of a purgatory fireball." , Ye Siyu casually threw the fireball out.
"Boom!"
The flames rose with a deafening explosion.
