Chapter XXVII: Flitwick's Questioning
Early the next morning, Josh woke up from a deep meditation state. Ever since he was judged to be basically insulated from the elements of magic, Josh began to practice in this way, naturally hoping that he could fight back, but it didn't work until he blasted himself away from Acacia with a magic blow, and Josh became a real magician from a magic apprentice.
A magic apprentice with second-order magical power, Josh is also the only one. Of course, Josh didn't stop this seemingly torturous way of practicing after his debut, because he was used to it. Moreover, his meditation method was created by a ninth-order extreme Sanctuary mage, and it allowed people to enter deep meditation.
The so-called deep meditation on Josh's own understanding allows his consciousness to be emptied, and then subconsciously controls his thinking, so that not only will he not waste his time in cultivation, but he will also not miss a break. Josh liked this cultivation method very much, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the person who created this method!
Of course, the reason why this ninth-order Sacred Domain mage did this was entirely because he had to do all kinds of magic experiments during the day, and he didn't have time to cultivate at all. And he was naturally tired at night, but he couldn't rest, so he created this meditation method to make himself more comfortable.
Stretching out, Josh washed up and walked out of the room, it was already half past eight, and Dumbledore had agreed to meet the new teacher early at nine o'clock. So Josh could only get up and look for Galen, what Josh didn't expect at that time was that he just went out and met a sweaty Galen walking back from outside.
"You got up so late?" Galen raised his eyebrows and smiled.
However, no matter how Josh looked at it, he felt that this guy was stirring up trouble, and sure enough, Galen continued: "You know, I've been up for two hours to practice battle qi, and then I went to the room of require to exercise. Josh, if you're too lazy, you're not going to improve! ”
Well, after getting along for a long time, Galen has changed a lot. At least it's not as reserved as when they first got along, maybe he has practiced more with Josh and he gradually figured out Josh's character, plus he also figured out that he received Josh's favor, and he couldn't go back to Valoran for a short time, so he gradually accepted the status quo and became much better.
"Huh." Josh sneered disdainfully. "Please, don't think you're so hardworking. I've been practicing all night! ”
"How is that possible?" Galen was completely unconvinced.
"How could it not be? You know, the advanced teachers completely treat meditation as sleep, and their practice methods are stored in my library. I've done it before, and I've always done it. Otherwise, how do you think I have such a strong magic at my age? ”
Josh didn't blush at all when he spoke big. Than diligent? I'm sorry, but I may have fallen asleep, but my practice hasn't fallen behind, and my abundant magic is the best proof of this! Invulnerable, Galen was instantly defeated.
Of course, this also made Galen more diligent in the future, and many years later, he almost tried to find Josh after knowing Josh's cultivation method! But that's all for another time.
Galen, who looked ashamed, didn't know Josh's routine at all, touched his head, apologized to Josh a little embarrassed, and went back to the room to wash himself. He also received a notice that he was not going to go, but Josh asked him to be his assistant and he agreed, so he also had to show up for this meeting.
Galen's movements were fast, and it only took him ten minutes to get it done. However, Josh and Galen were still late when they arrived at the headmaster's office, for no other reason, because the two guys were tricked by the guys in the portrait, and they got lost in the end.
At that time, Josh directly drew his wand, ignoring the wailing of the wand and directly said that he wanted to destroy the portrait, the painting was immediately honest. Very respectfully showed Josh the way, and Josh ran to the door of the principal's office, of course they were still late.
"I'm sorry, Hogwoods is a bit big and we don't know the road, so we're lost."
Josh and the others pushed the door in, only to find that there were already a lot of people standing inside. Barely having to ask Josh to know that they were supposed to be waiting for him and Galen, so he apologized a little awkwardly.
"Of course, if it weren't for those damn portraits teasing us, maybe we would have arrived a long time ago."
"All right, Lord Augustus and His Excellency the Crown."
Dumbledore shook his head absently, of course he knew what was going on. Actually, it wasn't just him, everyone in the office basically knew, because Josh was teased and pulled out his wand in a fit of rage, he frightened the portraits, and then there were portraits and Dumbledore and they talked.
At that time, Dumbledore was also stunned, he didn't expect these portraits to dare to provoke this horrible guy. He immediately told them not to them off, and to be kind and guide them over. The portraits also realized the seriousness of the problem, so after that, Josh basically didn't have any trouble and went straight here.
"Just call us Josh and Galen, Dumbledore. Our last name sounds very strange here. ”
"I see, Josh and Galen, of course you can just call me Albus." Dumbledore was as good as he was. Then he personally invited Josh and Galen to the senior's desk, and introduced them to the teachers around him:
"These two are our new professors, this is His Excellency Josh Augustus, and this one is Josh's assistant, His Excellency Galen Crownguard. Josh is going to have two new courses at Hogwoods, one is a hands-on course and the other I think we'll talk about it. ”
"Did he come to be a teacher at such a young age?" This is a short old man asked suspiciously. "And the practical course? Is it to hold a dueling club? I'm sorry, I don't know if they're really capable of doing well. Albus, I'm not questioning your decision, I've always believed in you, but I have doubts. ”
Josh glanced at the old man, and he was impressed by the old man, because he remembered that the old man was very respected. It's not because of strength but because of morality, and if Josh's memory is not wrong, this old man seems to be the dean of Ravenclaw where Josh plans to become the vice president.
Well, on the first day of work, he was questioned by his boss, and Josh said that he was helpless. But before he could explain anything, Dumbledore had spoken.
"I respect your doubts about Filius, but I'd like to start with Josh's second lesson." Dumbledore told Flitwick to wait for a moment, then turned to look at Josh. "I'm sorry Josh, but we may have doubts about your second course, so we'll have to renegotiate before we can make a decision."
"Meditation, you say?" Josh gave Dumbledore a strange look, and of course he noticed that Dumbledore's magic had shrunk. But this doesn't mean that Dumbledore's strength has decreased, because he feels that the quality of Dumbledore's magic has improved a lot, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with meditation?
"Haven't you improved a lot? So why renegotiate? ”
"It's because meditation is so important that we have to renegotiate."
Dumbledore said helplessly. Truth be told, he also wanted to make the meditation course fully popular, but last night it occurred to him that if those who were loyal to the pure-blood theory and worked for Voldemort gave this method to Voldemort, then he could imagine how much trouble they would have in the future.
So he had to ask for a new discussion, and he told the matter directly in front of all the teachers, and finally he said, "There are people here who are worthy of my trust, so I gathered you all together to discuss how to deal with this matter." ”
"Actually, there's nothing to worry about." Josh understood what they were doing, but he didn't pay attention to it. "If you're not sure, then I'll pick the students. Of course, you can take a good look at the selected students. ”
"What do you mean by meditation?" Professor Flitwick asked, confused. After talking for a long time, he also talked about trust, which made him feel very strange.
"Meditation is a way to exercise magic and mental power." Josh explained casually. "I think Albus will tell you more, so I won't say much. By the way, it's a pleasure to meet you, Professor Flitwick. ”
"Hello." Flitwick shook Josh's hand in confusion, but the next moment he was not calm.
"By the way, Filius, I'm going to make Josh of course Vice President of Ravenclaw. You have to get along well in the future. Dumbledore suddenly spoke.
"What!" At this time, not only Dean Felius Flitwick was not calm, but everyone present except Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Snape exclaimed in disbelief! This news can be said to be very exciting.
They all looked at Josh involuntarily, the boy was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Normally, at such an age, they would still be studying in one of the houses in the school, but now Dumbledore not only made him a professor, but also asked him to be the deputy head of an academy, what kind of operation is completely incomprehensible to them?
"Why, Albus?" Flitwick couldn't understand what Dumbledore was doing or thinking, and even though he respected Dumbledore very much, he questioned him.
Dumbledore was about to speak but was stopped by Josh, he smiled at Dumbledore and said, "Of course, Professor Dumbledore invited me to be the deputy dean, but the reason is very simple. First of all, I am able to protect my students well, and at the same time I have questions about meditation. ”
As he spoke, Josh took out his wand directly, because this thing was not convinced by Josh at all, so it always wailed, so Josh simply named it the Wailer.
Sure enough, he took out his wand and whined again, but Josh didn't care at all, and said directly to Flitwick: "Professor Flitwick, please attack me, with all your strength." ”
"What?" Flitwick didn't understand, but he glanced at Dumbledore and saw that he was nodding at him, so Professor Flitwick went and pulled out his wand and fired a blank shot at Josh. Although Josh said that he should use all his strength, he still restrained his shots.
But the next moment he was stunned, because Josh stood there and didn't move at all, watching the magic crash into him.
