Chapter 121: A wand with its own thoughts

The danger of magic is that it is ever-changing, and it is different every time.

Maybe it's just that there is a certain emotion at work in the heart all the time, which will cause the magic effect to change, and it is unpredictable.

Professor Flitwick constantly stresses how to avoid fluctuations in will, laxity, and so on.

At the same time, some exercise techniques for magic control are also emphasized.

This kind of thing is a latent talent, and those with strong innate magic control, such as Hermione, are very handy when it comes to learning and casting spells.

Of course, this thing can also be trained. A bit of practice makes perfect.

Seamus made a big deal, and the other students were not to be outdone.

The sound of ping-pong in the classroom has never stopped.

Professor Flitwick specially prepared a large bag of balloons as a target for spellcasting, which was extremely expensive.

Even Hermione's first few attempts failed, and the first explosion startled her, and her hair was fluffy. Ted almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

However, Hermione's talent was already starting to show itself, and after a few defeats, she quickly learned her lesson and got closer to success. After a dozen or so times, the first spell was successful, and the balloon inflated, and after that, there were very few failures.

The rest of the students didn't make as much progress.

Harley blew the balloons everywhere every time, at great speed.

Neville and Jerry simply couldn't blow the balloons up.

What about Ron?

Ron was the most ruthless, and the wand in his hand swooped out with a spell of "Grow Faster~" and slammed into Flitwick's head.

Then Professor Flitwick's brain visibly bulged into a large green bag, the size of a fist!

It's like a green birthday star!

Professor Flitwick was stunned: I was attacked? I was ...... It's green!

Obviously, Ron's now "alchemically transformed" wand has a mind of its own - he attacked the professor in the first class of school.

However, it is said that the content of the transformation class in the afternoon is to turn beetles into buttons.

Harley's beetle ran so fast that she couldn't even click on it, chasing it everywhere.

Neville's beetle had been playing dead and motionless.

Jerry's beetle fell to the ground and was gone, never to be found.

Ron's wand was sick again, and it smoked and burned the beetle!

It's a bit of a rebellious now! A wand of nine and a half inches, with a nine-inch backbone! It's very dangerous~

Ted: They had an afternoon herbal class, learning how to repot a mandrake doll. The sound of that thing was so harsh that you could hear it with magic earmuffs.

And it's very ugly, very fierce!

When you pull it out, it doesn't want to come out, but you have to put it in a new basin, and it doesn't want to go back.

Is Ted a kid-like person? Seeing that Professor Sprout was not paying attention, he went up and gave the mandrake a punch, then stuffed it into the basin and patted it with a small shovel.

May you thrive, the flowers of the future~

……

Because the three of them drove to the school and hit the school's valuable property, the three of them were to be confined to prison.

Neville is called in by Lockhart, and the content of the lockdown is to reply to the fans on his behalf.

Lockhart is good-looking, dog-like, and can market, he can be called a friend of the women of the British wizarding world, and even Aunt Molly is a fan of him.

More fans wrote to him than voted for the monthly ticket.

Neville had two large stacks of letters to reply to each night, and according to him, "the contents were extremely sensual and chilling"!

Neville wrote for two hours and almost threw up.

Lockhart was still chattering on the side, talking about how to manage his image and gain honor with him.

Neville looked disgusted, "Honestly, I'd rather go to Snape's basement and kill frogs and gut slugs than go to Lockhart's office again." ”

And the job that Neville envied so much is now Hallie's.

The content of Hallie's confinement is to sort out the potions for Snape. Anyway, it's very leisurely, and it's lighter than Ted in Giggs's pharmacy.

Ron was out of luck, he fell into the hands of Filch and was sent to clean up. Seven or eight toilets, an entire showroom of trophies and medals had to be scrubbed by him.

Although Ted gave him a makeshift spell to clean quickly, the work was no small one.

……

The next morning, Ted wakes up early to go for a run, but Neville says he has promised Professor Sprout to help treat Beater Willow.

The old tree was barely split by the three of them.

Ted was also curious, so he went along to see the excitement.

Unexpectedly, in addition to Neville, there was also a student who arrived earlier.

The Hufflepuff Horn Boy Guve Oasis.

This guy is almost 1.8 meters old now, with broad shoulders and a tall build.

Neville and Ted were already the tallest of their age, but the 13-year-old Guf, who was only a year older than them, was already like an iron tower!

No sooner had Ted met his fierce but shy friend than Neville when he saw Professor Sprout coming out of the castle gate in the distance.

Her face was not good, because behind her was a Lockhart who was dressed in a silver thread pattern, with his hair smeared and chattering all the way.

Lockhart came running around like a kicker, proposing more than a dozen "ways to treat beating willows" along the way, and saying that no one knew better than him about treating beating willows.

Professor Sprout quickened his pace with a little resentment, but Lockhart trotted along.

In the end, even Professor Sprout, who has a pretty good personality, was furious: "Professor Lockhart, I think I'm the professor of herbology, and I know how to treat the beating willow, not kill it in a dozen ways!" Please come back! ”

"Oh~ Okay! In that case~" Lockhart shrugged, "If you need it, feel free to come to me, I'll be easy~ You understand." It's simple, I just need ~uh-huh~"

Ted looked gloomy: "It's early in the morning, it's not good to go out~"

The very manic Beater Willow is very obedient to Professor Sprout, and the three of them help Professor Sprout fix Beater Willow's wound with a magic bandage, and then apply buckets of potions and herbs to the cracked trunk, or bury dragon manure under the roots.

After finishing the beating willow, Ted and Neville glanced at Hagrid, who was not far away. His hunter's hut was a short distance from here.

When they reached the door, Hagrid opened the door and came out, shaking the ashes with a bearskin mattress.

"Oh, hello, Ted and Neville. Have a great holiday~"

"Hello Hagrid!"

"Good morning Hagrid~"

Hagrid shook his head: "Not good! Very bad! That guy, I mean the stinking Lockhart, came early in the morning to teach me how to subdue the horse-shaped water monster. I'd love to throw this into the Black Lake and let him talk to the Horse-Shaped Monster himself. He also said that no one knows how to get rid of carnivorous slugs better than him, and that if I believe him, I might as well become a carnivorous slug! ”

Ted and Neville looked at each other, understanding.

The new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor is also very powerful, and he has already "united" his colleagues in just two days.

Hagrid even told the two of them a lot of ugly things about Lockhart's school days, such as sending dozens of letters to himself on Valentine's Day, which were later debunked.

He also wrote his name on the hourglass of points and was confined.

In short, try your best to be in the limelight, and all kinds of commotion operations continue.

Soon the first Defence Against the Dark Arts class began.

Ted's class already knew the curse of bad luck for the position, and before class, he began to bet on whether Lockhart would make it through the year.

After all, Lockhart is also a well-known best-selling author in the wizarding world of Great Britain, and even quite famous in several nearby countries.

I also got myself a third-class Merlin Medal, and 5 times the Most Charming Smile Award from Wizard Weekly!

It can be said that there is a lot of fame.

So many young wizards still have some confidence in him.

However, in the first class, Lockhart walked into the classroom with a large stack of papers.

The hopeful little wizards withered suddenly.

But it's even more absolutely behind!

When the scroll was handed out, all the questions were like "Lockhart's favorite color", "Lockhart's favorite gift", "Lockhart's ideals" and so on.

The expressions of many classmates changed on the spot: Walter Zefak? What the hell is this?

Who am I? Where am I? Am I here for Lockhart's fan handshake?

As a result, when I looked at the scroll, only Ted got a perfect score out of all of them!

"Ted Epifani-san? Who is Ted? Lockhart exclaimed with a smile of surprise.

Ted stood up: "Professor, I'm Ted Epiphani. ”
