Chapter 204: A Piece of Sugar
In the headmaster's room, Dumbledore sat on his headmaster's throne and looked at Grindelwald with a smile as he kept walking and complaining in front of him.
"How these students' brains are like trolls, I have dismantled and broken them up, and there are still things that I don't understand, after a class, few of them have learned."
Grindelwald grumbled with an angry face, he really didn't understand how Dumbledore had calmed down to teach these little kids.
"Of these students, Ralph is in my eye. Nothing else, a simple thought won't do."
"I thought it was their age problem in second grade, but I'm dying of anger in seventh grade class this afternoon."
Speaking of this, Grindelwald deliberately paused, took a few deep breaths, and looked at the smiling Dumbledore.
"How did you put up with these fools?"
Looking at Dumbledore with a smile on his face, Grindelwald couldn't help but ask.
"I couldn't take it anymore, so I taught a Dark Lord."
Dumbledore shook his head, and although his expression was a little dark, he still smiled.
I don't know when he started to take the dark devil who was constantly making trouble outside.
Maybe the promotion of Professors McGonagall and Sprout, or the arrival of Grindelwald, the establishment of a new oath, or maybe he saw a wider sky.
"Okay. But I think there's something really wrong with your teaching, not just at Hogwarts, but with the entire wizarding world."
Grindelwald stopped talking about that, but he didn't care about criticizing their education.
"It's all seventh grade, and there are guys who can't use the [Cleansing Charm]? You know, I've already taught it once! If it weren't for the fact that he was deserting in class, I would have thought he was a troll."
"Is it really that hard for them to [cleanse the spell] to deal with fish scales and bones?"
Grindelwald said.
The Cleansing Charm is intended to remove parts of an object that the wizard doesn't need.
Before Grindelwald was expelled from Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he had already learned its derivative applications, such as peeling, pitting, etc., which were the most basic abilities of the [Cleansing Charm] in addition to its own homework.
"They are not us, after all, they have no extraordinary talents, so they need us to teach."
Dumbledore shook his head lightly and said to Grindelwald.
"You have to be patient, and over time, you will find that everything you do is rewarded."
He said.
"Patience? If not, I'd have already passed the [Drill Heart Mantra] by myself, and I see if they still learn it seriously?"
Grindelwald raised his eyebrows and said.
Dumbledore also nodded, Grindelwald has indeed changed a lot, at least he is willing to take those wizards with bad talent seriously.
"Do you have any ideas?"
Dumbledore asked, though he wasn't very concerned about the school, but he was aware of the problems.
Take the Aurors' application as an example, as long as you know the [Iron Armor Curse] and the [Disarming Curse], you can gain a great advantage in the election.
In other words, many of the Aurors' [Iron Armor] and [Disarming Charms] were learned during the internship period, not during the school days. ….
Moreover, these two spells were not available in the school's Charms class, and they were assigned to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
But Hogwarts' Defence Against the Dark Arts lessons in recent years, alas! It's nice to find a professor.
"I think magic research is good. Well? However, the scope of the study should also be limited."
Grindelwald said, thinking of his past, and said.
"Get more people involved?"
Dumbledore looked at Grindelwald.
"With the participation of good young wizards, it will be difficult for other wizards to do anything great in their lifetimes."
Grindelwald shook his head and said, though he would take it seriously when it came to teaching
Those ordinary and even poor students, but he still looked down on ordinary wizards who did nothing.
"Everyone has their own strengths, but they just haven't been discovered. We should give them more opportunities."
Dumbledore said that as a Headmaster and as an Elder, he truly hoped that every young wizard could find his or her own way.
"Give mediocre people more chances? Albus, you're getting old! And what about the good people? The opportunities are all earned by ourselves, not by us. Imagine our past."
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Grindelwald walked to Dumbledore's headmaster's desk, propped his hands on the table, and looked down at Dumbledore, who also looked up at him.
"I lost my words. But they are all the same in my eyes. I'm glad you think about our students."
Dumbledore admitted his mistake and said happily.
"I'm not for them, I'm for the future of the wizarding world."
The corners of Grindelwald's mouth twitched, and he always felt that he and Dumbledore were really a little strange.
"Okay, let's not argue for now. This issue really needs to be resolved, and when the time comes, I'll leave it to Minerva."
Dumbledore said, stopping the conversation.
Grindelwald looked at him helplessly, this old fellow, he knew how to dump the pot, and Professor McGonagall was not too young.
"Okay. I'm going to need to readjust my syllabus a bit, and hopefully I'll be able to use it in future classes at Hogwarts."
Grindelwald said, walked over to the table, took out a pen and paper, and began to think.
No one was talking to Dumbledore anymore, and he was a little bored, so he walked over to Grindelwald and watched.
At first, Dumbledore was relatively clean, and Grindelwald was able to quickly eliminate distractions and concentrate on his work.
I can't stand Dumbledore's idle boredom! Started chattering mode.
"Gail, you're going to give this stuff to the first grade! Do they understand?"
"Gail, that's not quite right here. I don't think it's in the textbook, right?"
"Gail, what is this here for?"
"Gale ......"
Maybe that's how people get old.
"Enough! Albus!"
Grindelwald said to Dumbledore with a cold face.
The characters in the portraits of the principals trembled, and they didn't dare to open their eyes at all. If these two people fight here, they don't know who to go to.
"Oh, I'm sorry!"
Dumbledore was also stunned for a moment, and immediately realized his mistake, his eyes full of apologies. ….
"You wait for me, I'll be back soon."
Looking at Dumbledore's stunned expression, Grindelwald felt that he shouldn't have done this to him, so he quickly said something and got up to leave.
"Ugh."
Dumbledore sighed, found a random chair and sat down, tilting his head unaware of what he was staring at.
I don't know how long it took, a pair of hands pressed on his shoulders, gently rubbed them, very unskillfully, he opened his eyes, it was Grindelwald.
"Here, eat sugar."
Grindelwald smiled and shoved candy into his mouth, his voice as old as his face, but the same as the one he remembered.
"Gail."
On the elongated chairs, the two old men sat and leaned on each other. When it's not a person, the heart softens.
"Did you know I had a sweet tooth before you knew me?"
Dumbledore asked.
"Yes. Do you know? I actually regret handing you a candy that day."
Grindelwald said.
"Why?"
"Because I passed myself over."
Dumbledore chuckled.
The portraits saw the quarrel between the two, but did not expect such an ending.
Even though it was a portrait, they had a feeling of being full.
Slug Magic Laboratory.
At this time, there were eight people in this small potions magic research room.
Due to the schedule, there were no classes on Wednesday afternoons in the second year, so Ralph and the others called Barty Jr. to go to the magic laboratory together, hoping that the copy would be opened today.
[To tell the truth,Recently, I've been using a change source to read books and chase more,Change the source switch,Read aloud with more timbre,.huanyuan.Android and Apple are available.】 】
But unfortunately, they waited for almost an afternoon, and they were not teleported, but waited for Severus, Lily, and Pandora.
Severus accepted the commission of his classmates in the same house to help them brew some inconvenient potions for a fee, and the materials were prepared in advance.
This made Severus secretly say that it was a pity that if the materials were ready, he could still fish for a little more.
Then he went to the magic room after class.
Now, only two people know the secret, and it has become six.
Ralph and the others also knew that Slytherin had a senior who was not good at that, so they asked Senior Snape to make potions.
At the same time, they were also shocked that Senior Snape even knew this kind of potion, especially William, who was called a courtesy.
Little Barty's eyes widened, don't look at this guy has been pretending to be a little adult, but his knowledge in this area is not even as good as Daniel's, and he asked several times to know what this potion was for, and his face was red.
With Ralph's help, Snape quickly made the potion, and couldn't help but sigh that it was still very comfortable to have such a group of good teammates around.
Idle, a few people chatted like this.
"How did you come up with this? I didn't have any projects when I first started school, and if it wasn't for the potions, I almost forgot about it."
Snape said that he had a lot to say when they were all acquaintances.
"Huh? I promised the professor, but I can't say it."
The four of them looked at each other and said.
Snape's eyes widened as he looked at them, then looked down at Barty Jr., trying to get some news from him. ….
"I don't know. They just told me it was a fun thing."
Arrive.
"I'll show you something, I got it from inside, Professor Flitwick told us we could use it to make potions."
William said with a smug look on his face, then looked at Ralph.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Ralph drank Alford and said.
"Am I gone? I'll have to use yours."
William wasn't embarrassed at all.
"Okay."
Ralph reached into his pocket, and he took out a crystal that was not yet green and glowing and placed it on the table.
"This thing can make potions?"
Snape looked at the magic crystal curiously, picked it up, scraped it with his fingers, and put it in his mouth.
"Severus, what are you doing here?"
William said horrified. The others were also stunned.
"Taste it! Let's see if we can know how good it is. I brought with me the all-purpose antidote, which was prepared with the venom of the eight-eyed giant spider, don't worry."
Snape said.
"The professor says wizards aren't fit to eat it."
Claude swallowed and said.
After listening to Claude's words, Ralph on the side had a different idea.
'If wizards can't eat it, what about magical beasts?' ,
Apparently, he was also interested in the taste of the thing.
"yes, why don't you go find Madam Pomfrey now?"
Daniel looked at Snape worriedly.
"What if it happens in a moment?"
When he arrived, everyone else looked at him.
"What's wrong? I didn't say anything wrong."
Barty Jr. was a little confused.
"It's okay, don't worry. This thing is so hard that you can't scrape it off, so you can try it. Really!"
Severus was relieved that he didn't want to face Madam Pomfrey.
"Hard? I don't know if the [Softening Charm] is useful."
Ralph popped up suddenly.
"Ralph, you don't want to eat too, do you?"
Claude said that after all, Ralph had a criminal record, and he was a little better, and he didn't have much appetite for strange things.
"Easy to cut."
Ralph said, but not so in his heart.
"Well, you probably can't steal it."
Claude still reminded that the others also agreed with Claude's point of view, and among the six people, they were most worried about Ralph.
After solving this problem, several people started small talk about other aspects.
"I don't know what the Headmaster thinks of letting Slytherin and Gryffindor share a public bathroom."
Snape said angrily, and Barty Jr. felt the same way.
"It's true that the school has gone too far. I don't even want to take a shower now. It's so annoying that they were disturbed by taking a shower for the first time at school!"
Little Barty doesn't look very good on his face either.
"And this?"
Ralph and the others looked at each other, and then realized that they hadn't showered since school started.
It's a little embarrassing, it's not that a family doesn't enter the door!
"You're not bad, you share a public bathroom with Hufflepuff."
Snape said helplessly, and he didn't know which professor had the idea to let them take a bath with Gryffindor, so that they would not be afraid of the bathhouse being bombed?
"Those Gryffindors, they're not things. Next time I take a shower, I must ask my roommate to go with me, one to wash, and the others to defend."
As if remembering something, little Barty rarely scolded.
"Did they bully you?"
Daniel asked, and the others looked at Barty Jr. curiously.
"They snatched my soap and cast a spell on it."
When he said this, little Barty's face was a little distorted.
"You snatched it back, used it?"
Snape swallowed and asked softly.
"Yes. I didn't expect them to be so bad."
I closed my eyes and couldn't bear to remember.
Snape patted him sympathetically on the shoulder, and with the "friendship" between Slytherin and Gryffindor, he could already think of what inhuman treatment the soap had suffered, and how the owner of the soap had suffered.
"Thanks to the [Cleansing Charm], I wouldn't have dared to go out of the public bathroom."
Barty Jr. finally said.
