Chapter 285: Riddle's Second Request
"What was the content of the first ancient runi lesson?"
The next morning, at the table in the auditorium, Cedric thought for a moment and said, "I remember it was very difficult...... No, it should be said that the most difficult part of the whole school year is the first class. ”
"Professor Ba Buring is probably talking about the application of magic scripts in alchemy...... Qiu asked with a strange expression, "and those ways of writing that represent different meanings." ”
But to her surprise, Cedric immediately shook his head and said, "No...... That's something that only needs to be learned in the fifth grade, so how can it be taught in the third grade. ”
"Then you ......"
"Professor Bablin told us about the evolution of the Script...... And what they looked like in the first place. ”
Cedric had a pained expression, "You can't imagine how complicated those scripts were before they were simplified...... Seriously, it was the first time I felt like I didn't remember anything in class. ”
"That's right." Fred and George, who were next to them, nodded in unison.
"It was a nightmare."
"I felt like a stunted troll......"
Autumn glanced at the three of them empathetically, a feeling she had experienced not so long ago.
At this point, Kyle suddenly asked, "How many of you chose that class at the time." ”
"A dozen, I forgot the specifics."
Cedric thought for a moment and said, "But it doesn't matter, because Professor Bablin said that if you don't want to take ancient runes, you can change classes.
So by the time the second week of classes came, there were only nine people left in the classroom. ”
"Almost seven."
Fred said, "When we walked to Professor McGonagall's office, we suddenly hesitated......"
"For the sake of the Weasley's magic trick workshop in the future, I decided to take another lesson." George said with a smile.
"It's good that we thought so......"
"Because the content of the second lesson is normal, although it is still difficult...... But at least we can understand. ”
"Surely the same is true of you?" Cedric asked.
"Except for the different content, everything else is pretty much the same, including things that can be changed." Qiu sighed and said, "But I don't understand, why did Professor Ba Buring do this. ”
"I don't know......," Fred thought for a moment, "although some people say that Professor Bablin wanted to have the third to seventh grade people in class together, deliberately reducing the number of people in each grade, but this is obviously impossible. ”
"Everyone learns different things, so it's impossible to teach them together." George said, "Percy is now reading Advanced Magical Translation, and we are still reading Ancient Magical Texts Simple. ”
"Maybe the first class was Professor Babling's test."
Cedric said, "Learning the Script is bound to be a tedious process, and you have to be patient enough to stick to it.
She probably wanted to use this method to weed out those who didn't fit, so that they wouldn't waste their time. ”
"Of course, that's just my guess."
Cedric took a sip of pumpkin juice and continued, "We know too little about Professor Barbling, after all, except for classes and various festive banquets, she almost never shows up, and she doesn't even go to a Quidditch match. ”
In the following period, several people began to discuss how difficult it was to learn the magic script, but how interesting it was after learning it......
Kyle listened, trying to act like them without being too proud.
At this time, the benefits of having a portable "tutor" are reflected, Riddle is patient, capable, and has a very comprehensive understanding of the magic script.
With his help, Kyle has avoided many detours and is very efficient in learning.
I didn't think there was anything before, but now it's different...... Problems like Cedric's are nothing more simple than those in Kyle's opinion.
In other words, Riddle's diary is Voldemort's study notes back then.
It's just that this notebook has become a bit of a pit recently.,Not only does it need to be carefully screened when it's used.,It also went on strike a few days ago.,I don't know when it's going to be restored.。
Thinking of this, Kyle quickly finished his breakfast, went to the Room of Requirement as usual, greeted Riddle in the box, and asked him about his situation.
He'd been doing this for the past few days, but Riddle never replied.
Kyle didn't really have much hope today, and after habitually writing a sentence, he was ready to close the journal.
But surprisingly, Riddle didn't continue to play dead, and quickly responded to him.
[I'm sorry...... When you showed me the newspaper that day, the magic of the diary seemed to run out suddenly. 】
Kyle picks up the quill with some surprise.
"Are you alright, Tom, I'm worried about you."
[Sort of, I'm glad you've been writing to me with dragon blood lately.] 】
[What we are learning today, it has been abandoned for so long, I can't wait. 】
Neither Kyle's story nor Voldemort's death from a baby seems to have had any effect on Riddle.
He didn't even ask about anything else.
It's like Voldemort is just an inconsequential passerby, and it doesn't matter if he's dead or not.
But Riddle said so, and Kyle couldn't live up to his kindness.
"Then let's continue to learn the magic script."
[I guess that's it, you really like Mowen.] 】
……
However, I didn't study for long this time.
Because there was still class going on in a while, and by 8:50, Kyle would have to leave.
[Time is always so fast. 】
Before closing the journal, Riddle made another request.
[If you can, can you bring some animals next time?] 】
"Animals?" Kyle frowned slightly and wrote, "Do you still need to eat?" I can take the cooked food directly from the kitchen. ”
[No, I don't need to eat. I just love fantastic beasts, and that was the way I was when I was in school, so I wanted to see them again. 】
[It doesn't need to be rare, fairies or tree guards can be used, and they can be easily found on the edge of the forbidden forest.] 】
Kyle hesitated, "But Tom, can you see them?" ”
[Of course, you just put them in the journal and I can see them.] 】
"That'...... Well, I'll go to the Forbidden Forest at the end of the week. ”
Kyle casually agreed, and quickly left the Room of Need.
Riddle wants animals to be unrelated to Like, but Kyle doesn't have time to guess what he thinks.
There were five minutes left before the first transfiguration lesson, if he was late...... Tsk, angry Professor McGonagall is much scarier than Voldemort.
