Chapter 322: Honour and Glory to Slytherin
Monday.
In Defence Against the Dark Arts class, Oz tested the application of the Obstacle Charm.
"It seems that you can already use the Disarming Charm, Stun Charm, and Obstacle Charm on a basic basis."
It took Oz a semester to correct the oddly poor foundation of fifth grade.
"Although it is only three simple spells, as long as it is applied properly, even if it encounters an infringement, it can be effectively counterattacked." Oz told the students, "In all my years as an Auror, these three spells have been used the most. ”
"I can even tell you that in many cases, these three spells are far more effective than more complex spells."
Oz taught the Auror training aspect, for the Aurors, power was secondary, and the most important thing was spell casting speed.
When confronted with enemies, you use disarming charms and more complex spells to incapacitate them.
The Aurors will choose to use a simple disarming charm to resolve the fight faster and with less effort.
This semester, Oz has set a study task for the fifth grade, where they learn new spell applications.
The students listened attentively, especially those who were planning to go in the direction of the Aurors.
Umbridge has largely stopped coming to this classroom, and this has become one of the few places where students can stay.
At the end of class, students are talking about their study tasks.
...
Auditorium.
Malfoy muttered, "Did you see that Potter, his haughty expression?" ”
Malfoy noticed Harry's absent-minded expression during the lesson, but he clearly misunderstood the meaning and said indignantly: "I'm afraid he thinks that as a savior, he can learn it as soon as he learns." ”
Mainly, Malfoy was overpowered by Harry in Defence Against the Dark Arts, a man who was like a natural Auror, second only to John in this subject.
John raised an eyebrow and said noncommittally, "If you could spend your time observing him studying, so could you." ”
Distracted in class, are you embarrassed to complain?
Malfoy froze before a wind-like figure ran by.
Pansy's attempt to escape fails.
Even if she hid in the common room for a day yesterday, she didn't escape the next day's meeting in class.
Under Daphne's burst of urgency, Pansy grimaced that she didn't know how many times she repeated her excuses.
"You almost made me ......" Daphne's cheeks turned crimson at the thought of her bold invitation out.
Pansy cried and said, "I'll apologize to you later." ”
"Is that an apologetic attitude?" Daphne receives Pansy's letter.
If it weren't for the conditions, she would have killed Pansy's house.
Pansy whispered, "I think we can salvage it." ”
"How to rescue, you tell me what to rescue!" Daphne gave Pansy a hard look.
Pansy hurriedly said, "You see, John didn't refuse to go out with you, which shows that he also likes you very much." ”
"What nonsense," Daphne said with a frown, "whoever asks him out." ”
"Uh......" Pansy thought about it, desperate to find that it really might be the case.
Daphne clenched her fists and signed a series of unequal treaties with Pansy.
Pansy, who was humiliated, turned her head and poured her anger on Goyle and Crabbe.
The two big men looked confused, who did they offend?
The days of waiting for the badge were peaceful, John would occasionally glance at the badge, and more often than not, he would stay in the Stars Society.
January 8th.
It was a Monday, and he walked into Snape's office, causing Snape's face to chill.
John noticed that there was one more thing and one person in the office.
Meditation basin and Harry.
They are sneaky, giving people the impression that they are doing something that is not visible.
Remembering the news that Harry was going to make up lessons with Snape, and then looking at Harry's loveless face.
"I hope I didn't bother you...... Make up the lesson," John said with a snort.
Harry had a feeling of being caught, which made him unusually ashamed.
"Wick," Snape said in a strange manner, blocking John's gaze without a trace, "You'd better tell me why you're here, so that I don't care if you didn't knock on the door and come in." ”
He stared into John's eyes and said word by word, "There shouldn't be a wild dog at Hogwarts who broke in out of nowhere." ”
"I knocked on the door, but you didn't seem to hear me."
John retracted his gaze, he raised an eyebrow, wanting to read his own heart?
Occlumency, John smiled humbly, "I think the reason is legitimate. ”
"Oh?" Snape didn't read it out at all, which led him to determine that John's Occlumency was strong.
Dumbledore was right, John Wick already had more power than the school and most wizards.
"I hope to have a day off tomorrow." John said politely.
Holiday?
Snape pondered for a moment, and Harry felt that John was a little whimsical.
No illness and no explanation.
"Yes."
To his great surprise, Snape agreed.
Harry felt as if Snape had been made by someone else.
John chuckled, "Thank you very much, Professor Snape. ”
Harry couldn't believe it, it was clear that John had spoken rudely to Snape when he was in Grimmauld Place.
He swore that if he spoke to Snape like that, he would be locked up until the end of the semester.
John turned to leave, and when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped talking to Harry, "That's right, Harry. ”
Harry subconsciously looked up and met John's eyes.
Snape immediately got in front of him, and John, somewhat surprised, said calmly, "I wish you a better improvement." ”
After saying that, he left with a flat expression.
He closed the door before leaving.
Snape waited until John closed the door, then turned to Harry and said coldly, "We can start a new practice." ”
He didn't want me to pit John against him.
A strange thought popped into Harry's head, and Snape said directly, "Yes, your mediocrity only highlights John Wick's talent even more, and you'd better not be ashamed." ”
Damn, forget Snape could read minds.
Harry's face changed, but his words were already in his head.
Snape sneered, you kid said so many bad things about me in the past, I see what you do now.
At that moment, Harry really wanted to settle his old suspicions with John.
...
January 9th.
John appears at the Ministry of Magic.
Coming to a red phone booth in London, he picked up the phone and typed in the number.
“62442。”
The call went through.
A woman's indifferent voice rang out in the phone booth.
"Welcome to the Ministry of Magic, please say your name and what to do."
John said, "John Wick, honoured." ”
"Thank you," said the woman's cold voice, "Guest, please take the badge and pin it in front of your clothes." ”
A badge slipped out of the metal chute on the phone that usually uses to return coins, and John picked up the badge that read 'Honour' and put it on his clothes.
After putting it on, the indifferent voice prompted another to register the wand at the security checkpoint, and the entire phone booth began to sink.
The Ministry of Magic was built underground in London, and it wasn't the first time John had visited.
Entering the main hall of the Ministry of Magic, John registers his wand and enters the Wizengamot again.
Unlike last time, in the place where the last debate was held, those men were dressed in solemn clothes and waited for John's entry.
"John Wick." This time, Basbah took a back seat and performed the ritual by an old man with a white beard, who said in a heartfelt manner, "In view of your contribution to the wizarding world, you are hereby awarded the Order of Merlin of the Second Degree." ”
In fact, the ceremony was not very complicated, and the purple medallion symbolizing the second degree of Merlin was worn on his chest, which meant that John became the youngest holder of the Merlin Medal in the wizarding world.
Reporters taking pictures of this historic moment, and the report belonging to Hogwarts rising star John Wick will soon get out.
Percy was also here, and he was happy for John.
He has always believed that even if it is not Johnny's silver hand, John Wick is still the brightest star in the world.
...
Slytherin table.
Today they always felt like something was missing. 33
yes, their king is gone.
When John appeared, Slytherin always had a sense of cohesion.
Malfoy was bored when an owl flew over his head and smashed down a newspaper.
He casually opened it and glanced at it, his eyes widening.
"Look at the newspaper!" He looked up and yelled sharply.
Everyone in the auditorium was taken aback by him.
Malfoy ignored it, swept away the clutter on the table and stepped on the long table, reading the newspaper aloud under the gaze of everyone.
"On January 9, 1996, the brightest star in the history of magic was lifted, and the genius of Hogwarts, John Wyck, broke the legend of the incurable blood curse and took a big step forward in his contribution to breaking the curse, and was awarded the ......"
"Merlin's Order of the Second Degree!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Slytherin went into a frenzy.
At this moment, Hogwarts was covered in Slytherin voices.
Malfoy raised the newspaper in his hand and shouted, "Our King, glory to Slytherin!" ”
The eerie silence of the other three courtyards.
Even Umbridge forgot to stop all this indiscipline.
...
Some people died, but not completely......
