Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Rumors Stop at the Strong and Christmas
Harry Potter is a parseltongue.
The entire auditorium saw this, and Harry was thrust into the limelight.
Some say that Harry is the heir, and others find John and want him to get rid of the scourge.
John told them not to be cranky.
But in a short period of time, Harry has become synonymous with heir.
There are even conspiracy theories that Voldemort killed Harry because he was afraid that Harry would take the Dark Lord's place, which made John laugh.
The blizzard brought the afternoon herbal class to an end.
Harry was taken away by Professor McGonagall, John was in the auditorium, and Percy sat next to him drinking warm pumpkin juice.
"Sorry, we didn't find it, I searched for Harry's luggage three times."
Listening to Percy's apologetic words, John shook his head helplessly and said, "Percy, you have to believe Harry, he can't be the heir." ”
"Okay." Percy said yes.
John knew he was still suspicious of Harry, but he didn't expose it.
Harry's parseltongue made John think that maybe he could use Harry to open the secret room.
But now that Harry had been taken away by Professor McGonagall, he had to wait.
"I'll prove he's not."
John packs a ticket for Percy, this is the savior, and he is suspicious of what if he doesn't do it.
Percy left, and John took out the map of the living spots to check.
It had been a long time since no one had been in the girls' bathroom except for Harry, and the basilisk couldn't get out of the secret room without opening it, and Hogwarts was safe.
"What are the three of them doing there?"
Thinking that the last time he went in, he seemed to smell the smell of boiling potions, and John's face was a little strange.
The three little ones shouldn't be boiling potions in it, right?
Boiling potions in the girls' bathroom, is this a smell in the picture?
In fact, John is also a full man who doesn't know that hungry people are hungry, and he has a room of requirement that can be switched at any time, while Harry and they don't.
You can't make it in the Gryffindor Lounge, can you?
Harry came out of Dumbledore, who asked him what he knew, and he hid it.
Because Ron had said that hearing other voices was not necessarily a good thing, he chose to hide it.
It's just the gossip at school that makes him irritated, especially when he secretly wears the Sorting Hat in the headmaster's office.
The old hat still thinks he should go to Slytherin.
This made him wonder if he was the heir of Slytherin.
Hermione saw his troubles, and had an idea, "You can find John, and he will help you." ”
"John?"
Harry recalled another scene, on the stage of the duel, and from his perspective, he saw John's eyes change.
Those eyes were like the eyes of a snake.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Will it be troublesome?" ”
Hermione knew John well and affirmed, "John must wait for you too, you know he's good to his friends." ”
Friend?
Harry was silent for a moment.
In the end, Harry chose to go to John.
At the castle bridge, Harry came over with trepidation.
John was not surprised to see him coming, and said softly, "You are very entangled in your differences? ”
"John, do you think I'm the heir of Slytherin?" Harry stared into John's eyes.
John sneered, smiling extraordinarily cheerfully.
"Don't make a fuss, you're the savior, how can you be the heir of Slytherin."
As if hearing some kind of joke, John couldn't stop laughing.
Harry was a little annoyed by the laughter, "Enough, it's not funny. ”
Harry was startled at how loud he was shouting.
John stopped laughing, stared at Harry, and said seriously, "You're not the heir of Slytherin, at least not yet. ”
Seeing that Harry was still skeptical and hesitant, John chuckled and said, "The rumors stop at the strong, Harry, people who are strong enough don't care who is the heir." ”
Harry shuddered and looked at John, seeing that he was not joking.
Harry sighed and said, "If only they were all like you." ”
"You can't expect everyone to be like that, the strong lead the weak, that's the same truth."
John leaned on the railing of the bridge with both hands and looked out at the snowflakes in the distance.
...
It's Christmas.
There were quite a few people walking around the school, but not all of them.
There were even some Muggle wizards who stayed in school because John Wick gave them a sense of security.
"John Wick will protect us the same way he protects Justin Finchrie."
The scene at the Dueling Club made John feel good at Muggle wizards, and they even felt that John was their protector.
Someone would put a picture of John vs. Basilisk at the head of their bed, as if to protect them.
Wake up in the morning.
John received many packages.
He opened one, which Cedric had sent.
Inside was a new style of handbag, and it seems that he thought John liked it.
There are a lot of gifts, and if you want to open them, you can open them for a day.
John chose to open it again at night, and when he walked out of the dormitory, he saw the blonde and the brunette.
"Daphne and Pansy, they didn't come home?"
It's a little strange that the two didn't go home, but John didn't take it to heart.
Malfoy was already waiting for John in the common room, and when he saw John come out, he complained a little, "Told me to wake up so early, and I ended up sleeping late." ”
"I'm not sleeping late, I'm making a project for you."
Malfoy gave John a blank look, and said it as if it were true.
Malfoy didn't go back at Christmas, he had to strengthen himself at school.
At the Dueling Club, he and Harry exchanged curses, and they were hung up.
Although the oolong was released out of the hole, it did not hurt Harry at all.
He approached John and asked to strengthen himself, and John naturally agreed.
The two left the Slytherin dungeon and arrived at the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.
Since you have to train, you naturally need to have a spacious place.
John pulled out the Boggart, the cabinet Malfoy was all too familiar.
Every time John took it out in class, he kept wondering how it could fit so many creatures.
So the two of them began to teach by hand, of course, John was in charge of saying, and Malfoy was in charge of practicing.
In the evening, before the sky was completely dark, John had to stop training to go to the Room of Requirement.
When Malfoy returned, he met Goyle and Crabbe, two henchmen who had always done whatever Malfoy did.
Seeing that the two were stunned, he kindly led the two back.
As everyone knows, the two at this time are Harry and Ron.
Malfoy, on the other hand, likes to show off when he is free, and he knows many insider tips from Lucius Malfoy, such as the secret room that was once opened.
...
"The elixir is really hard to do."
John couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the elixir that had not yet been refined.
It is worthy of the top-level potions, not to mention the long refining time, and it is not allowed to be sloppy.
Potions are a branch of alchemy, and John has the skills of alchemy, and he has learned potions with him.
Now that he is level 3, he can be considered an experienced alchemist.
Putting in the materials needed for the elixir, John looked after it for a while and confirmed that there was no problem.
He tried to imbue the Sword of Ironwick with a new spell in the Room of Requirement.
"Dragon's blood can enhance the fire spell, so what can other magical creatures strengthen."
John pondered for a moment, unsure of what kind of enchantment to arrange for the Sword of Ironwick.
After all, it's not an alchemical product like the Sword of Gryffindor, and the Sword of Ironwick itself is still a Muggle item.
If something goes wrong, I'm afraid the entire sword will be scrapped, which is a bit of a problem.
After struggling for a while, John put aside the idea of enchantment for a while.
He reached out and didn't use his wand, trying to cast a spell without a wand.
"Emotions, I need an emotion."
John closed his eyes in contemplation, emotions driving magic.
The expression on his face changed to anger, and John raised his hand and patted it.
The chest of the humanoid target in front of him exploded.
"Whew...... Anger is hard to control, but it's okay. ”
When it comes to the simplest and most extreme emotions, anger is a great choice.
John just thought of someone forcing him to eat the Stargazing Pie, and that anger came out.
Wandless spells do, and John tried a few times, and in a fit of rage, he was able to cast improvised magic.
There was no shortage of dinners in the castle, and John went to them after finishing his training.
Halfway through, he ran into Goyle and Crabbe, who woke up in a daze, and he was a little strange.
