After returning from the library, Norlin never left the dormitory, and even asked Smith to help bring back dinner. The Encyclopedia of Spells seemed to be a strong magnetic field, and it had a strong attraction to Norin.

"Except for your weapon...... Nolin carefully studied the spell and essentials of the disarming charm, his hand unconsciously swinging, causing Smith on the other bed to shrink down. Fortunately, Norlin remembered that this was the dormitory and didn't take out his wand.

"Eh, Norin, I heard interesting news today." Smith climbed out of bed, leaned over to Norlin, and said mysteriously.

"What?" Norin replied distractedly.

"I heard from the senior seniors that Professor Krell from Defense Against the Dark Arts is a bounty hunter!" Smith's tone was a little agitated.

"Bounty hunters?" Norin was stunned for a moment, and when he heard the word bounty, he subconsciously thought of Miss Doom...... Then he quickly shook his head and returned to reality, "If a bounty hunter comes to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts, it's really a bit exciting. ”

"That's right," Smith excited, "only wizards of sufficient strength can serve as bounty hunters, and I don't know what Professor Krell can teach us." ”

"We'll find out tomorrow." Norlin closed the book, placed it on the head of the bed, and jumped out of bed.

Now his daily exercise has one more exercise in addition to fitness, and that is meditation. By the time he came out of the shower after exercising, Smith was already asleep in bed. He casually picked up his wand and used a cleansing charm, dried his hair, turned off the lights and went into a meditative state.

Norin once again entered that strange space. The formless, colorless power still enveloped him. This time, he cautiously let his mind move forward tentatively.

There seemed to be a very small force that was incorporated into the mind. Norin was secretly happy in his heart, his total amount of mana seemed to have increased a little, although it was insignificant, but he could clearly perceive it. Having tasted the sweetness, he no longer hesitated, and further merged with the magic of the void.

It wasn't until he was a little mentally exhausted that Norlin withdrew from his meditative state. No wonder Professor Flitwick says that meditation is fundamental to the strength of wizards. Just this time of true meditation, his total mana power increased. Of course, there was also a mentally draining mind, and Norlin didn't have the energy to think about it, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Norlin was called out to by Smith. The first class was Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and Norlin was looking forward to it, let alone a professor who seemed to have a lot of talent.

The Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom is located on the second floor of the Black Tower, an extremely spacious classroom. It didn't take long for Norlin to discover that the class was for first-year students to take together. The freshmen of the four houses each found a chair to sit down and talked in a low voice. One day is enough time for many people to get acquainted. There are various props in the classroom, such as standing puppet stakes, black shields on the walls, and puppet hanging statues on the ceiling, which seem to fit the temperament of this class.

"Hello everyone, students." A slender figure stepped through the door, and the door slammed shut behind him. He strode to the front with open arms, turned and clapped his hands, "I'm your Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, you can call me Professor Krell." ”

"Now, can anyone tell me what you imagine black magic to look like?" Professor Krell was expressionless, and his tone was unwavering.

However, the freshmen did not give him face, and many people giggled and laughed, but no one stood up to give an answer. A young wizard at this age is more ignorant and curious about dark magic than wary and fearful.

Professor Krell seemed indifferent, he swept his gaze around the classroom and said, "Mr. Norlin Davis, we have met before, so you will answer first." What do you think? ”

Norin raised his eyebrows slightly, stood up and said thoughtfully, "My understanding is that black magic, that is, the magic released by wizards with bad intentions, which is either powerful or ruthless. ”

The little wizards looked at each other, looking a little unimpressed by the answer. Professor Krell was silent for two seconds before he slowly spoke, "Good. Although there is a big difference from the answers in the textbook, I personally prefer your answers. Especially for an eleven-year-old wizard, it's not easy to talk about that. Ravenclaw plus 5 points. ”

He looked around at the little wizards below: "What, you're not convinced? ”

"You're only eleven years old, and you haven't seen the darkness and horror of dark magic, so I don't blame you." Professor Krell didn't seem to give the young wizards a chance to speak, and continued, "You haven't felt the sharp teeth and hideous faces of werewolves, you haven't seen the scarlet eyes and blood-red fangs of vampires, you haven't experienced the darkest kisses of Dementors...... You know nothing about the real darkness. ”

"Take the Curse of Unforgiveness, for example." Professor Krell paced slowly in the middle of the room, "Can anyone tell me what the Unforgivable Curses are?" ”

An arm rose in response.

"Mr. Charles."

"The Imperius Curse, the Heart Drill Curse, the Death Curse." Charles Mitch, dressed in green, spoke quickly, the expression on his face that seemed to indicate that he was very familiar with these spells.

"Good." Professor Krell nodded, didn't continue to ask questions, and said to himself, "The three unforgivable spells, once any wizard uses and is discovered, will be sent to Azkaban as soon as possible. As a representative of black magic, the three unforgivable spells all require the caster to be driven by their dark and powerful malice, and the deeper the malice, the more powerful. If you use the Requisition Charm on me at your current level, it will only give me a nosebleed at most. ”

"So Professor, we can't learn the dark arts, can we?" Charles looked disappointed.

Professor Krell glanced at him and said, "As Mr. Davis said earlier, dark magic is most powerful in the hands of wizards with bad minds, which is why Hogwarts does not advocate learning dark arts. I have met many gifted wizards who have become so enchanted with the power and study of the dark arts that their temperaments have changed dramatically, and they have gone to extremes. ”

Suddenly, he paused, and his words changed: "But, in my opinion, wizards should not be completely cut off from black magic. ”

The little wizards suddenly became lively, and Norlin ignored the slightly frightened Smith next to him, and listened quietly.

"You must know that it is not only dark wizards who know dark magic, but also all kinds of dark creatures, such as the aforementioned werewolves, vampires, red hats, boggarts, and so on. We must know something about the dark arts to deal with them. In fact, I've proposed to Headmaster Dumbledore that some less dangerous Dark Arts be added to the upper grades. Of course, whether you pass it or not doesn't matter much to you, you just need to understand some concepts now. ”

It's very powerful. Norlin had one more comment in his heart for the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.

"Children, magic is just a tool, whether it's black magic or white magic, what really matters is people. I have seen a lot of darkness, and I understand the value of light even more. I hope that you will also be an upright and strong-willed person, so that the dark arts will not be able to seduce or even control you. And this is also the most essential way to resist black magic. ”

Professor Krell's brown eyes looked at everyone in the room, and the voice was not loud, but it was extremely weighty.
