Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard - Chapter 750

Chapter 750: Supplementary Lessons

Even though Kyle felt it was unnecessary, Dumbledore returned the gold cup as promised three days later.

When Kyle found Harry with a bottle of mead, he was in the library, and his whole body was almost covered with various books.

 With him were Ron and Hermione.

There were several thick “walls of books” stacked in front of the three of them, completely blocking them. If the Marauder’s Map hadn’t shown that Harry was in the library, Kyle almost didn’t find him.

 It’s hard to imagine when he and Ron became so fond of reading.

 “This is what you want.”

Kyle walked over to sit across from them, and when Mrs. Pince wasn’t paying attention, he stuffed a bottle of mead into the gap between the book walls.

 “Thank you.” Harry raised his head and said.

Kyle then discovered that there were obvious dark circles around his eyes.

 “How long have you been here?” he asked subconsciously.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Kyle always felt like they were hiding something and didn’t want him to know.

While the two were discussing, they walked towards the common room. They had been reading books in the library for three consecutive days. Their previous enthusiasm for searching for Horcruxes had been worn out, and now they just wanted to go back and have a good sleep. Sleep.

His spells and transformation are weak points. According to Professor McGonagall, if he does not practice them, he will most likely not be able to obtain the certificates for these two courses.

Every day he either spends time in the common room or goes to the edge of the Forbidden Forest to find Hagrid.

“But it’s not for me to drink. It’s for Slughorn. He likes mead. Maybe I can use this to get his memory.”

 After entering April, the weather gradually became warmer.

And think about it carefully, if the things left by the Big Four can be found in books, why did Voldemort have to work at Borgin-Bock for so long just for a Hufflepuff Gold Cup.

 He picked up a book next to him, flipped through it quickly for a while, and then put it on the other side.

Transfiguration and Charms are the two most important courses, and are necessary for many jobs.

“Three days.” Ron yawned and muttered: “Except for classes, we almost live in the library.”

While everyone is working hard to get more certificates, he is the only one who is feeling idle.

“You want to get him drunk?” Ron touched his chin, “That’s a good idea. When are you going to go, now?”

 “No, no need.”

Harry had the same idea. If Hermione hadn’t insisted, he would have given up yesterday.

Although this does not include the professional batsman that Mikel wants to become, he is also very clear that his talent in Quidditch is not amazing, so it is impossible to completely give up these two certificates.

At the same time, Harry and the three of them were kicked out of the library by Mrs. Pince after a minute because they subconsciously shouted too loudly.

 After saying that, Hermione left angrily.

“It’s all your fault!” Hermione said angrily, “We won’t be able to enter the library for at least two days.”

“I don’t know.” Harry shook his head, “I need a chance.”

 “We can just find it ourselves.”

Seeing both of them saying this, Hermione glared at them angrily, “If so, I don’t mind listening to you, but don’t tell me that you want to search in every room in the school. I don’t want to do it. That’s such a stupid thing to do.”

 In order to cope with the upcoming N.E.W.T. exams, there are very few seventh-grade students in the castle. Most of them stay in the library or practice magic in empty classrooms.

 Harry said he wanted to find an opportunity, and then waited for more than a week.

“What does this have to do with anything?” Ron looked quite happy. “We have been searching for three days, but we found nothing. I have already told you that there are no swords or lockets in the library. clues, this is just a waste of time.”

 “Yeah, still a few months away,” said Harry.

But he wasn’t that curious either. Seeing that the three of them didn’t want to talk, he didn’t ask any more questions. After handing the things to Harry, he got up and left the library.

 Even Mikel has missed two Quidditch training sessions in a row.

“What is she angry about?” Ron didn’t understand. “We didn’t say that, did we?”

Mainly because he wanted to wait for a time when there was no one else before taking action. For example, there was a dinner party every few days before, but he forgot that since the last time he asked questions related to Horcruxes, Slug now He was no longer invited to the dinner party hosted by Horn.

“Listen to me, Kyle, you can’t be sitting around like this. This is the sixth time you’ve come to my place this week.”

“I think she was just angry that she couldn’t go to the library for two days.” Harry whispered.

 Harry and Ron spoke almost at the same time.

“It’s mead…” Harry said, “Oops, I just forgot to pay Kyle.”

“You guys, are you looking for something?” Kyle said, “Do you need help?”

 …

If there is anyone who has the most leisure time in the entire seventh grade, it is probably Kyle.

“Maybe.” Ron curled his lips, turned to look at the bottle held by Harry and asked, “What is this?”

At the same time, Kyle was also not invited, but this was exactly what Kyle wanted to see. After all, he didn’t need to ask anything from Slughorn.

 …

“Do you have any better ideas besides looking for clues in the library?”

 “Wine?” Ron frowned. “Don’t you always like to drink butterbeer? When did you turn into mead? Besides, you don’t seem to be an adult yet.”

Finally one day, even Hagrid couldn’t help it anymore and said after careful consideration: “Of course, I don’t welcome you, but the exam is coming soon, don’t you have to read a book? After all, even Harry has started to read. “

“Reading a book?” Kyle didn’t even use his wand. He just pointed a finger and made the teapot float on the stove, pouring two cups of boiling tea.

The whole process is extremely smooth, as if there is an invisible person holding the teapot.

 “Okay…just pretend I didn’t say that.” Hagrid decisively shut his mouth.

I have to admit that with Kyle’s current ability, he can fully cope with the N.E.W.T. exam. It seems that he really doesn’t need to read a book.

 But as a professor, there are some things he must say.

“Where’s Kangna? Why haven’t I seen her recently?” Hagrid changed the subject, “You guys didn’t have a fight, right? Let me tell you, she is a good girl, you…”

“A quarrel? How is that possible?” Kyle interrupted Hagrid, shook his head and said, “She has recently become obsessed with ancient potions. She stays next to the crucible almost every day and refuses to let me help.”

 This is also the main reason why Kyle has nothing to do.

Although Kyle repeatedly stated that learning ancient potions was of little significance because that kind of thing was not suitable for today’s wizards, Connor found new joy in it.

So, she decisively abandoned Kyle and ran to the underground classroom.

At first, Kyle wanted to help, but potions were not his strong point. After two visits, he was disliked by Kangna.

The person helping her now is Snape. Kyle will be ridiculed every time he goes there. He might as well just wander around the castle doing nothing.

“How’s your spider doing?” Kyle directed the teapot back to the stove and asked, “Do you need me to boil some more tonic?”

“Thank you, but no need.” Hagrid waved his hand and said with a somewhat lonely expression, “Aragog is too old. This has nothing to do with tonics.”

“That’s…okay.” Seeing Hagrid say this, Kyle stopped insisting and asked instead, “What about Grawp? Is he used to life in the Forbidden Forest?”

“Grawp has adapted very well.” Hagrid suddenly became energetic when he mentioned his giant brother. “The environment of the Forbidden Forest makes him very comfortable. At least he doesn’t need to worry about being expelled by other giants.

“Although the centaurs were a little unhappy and tried to drive Grawp away several times, they couldn’t…haha, those arrogant guys!”

 Because of Grawp, the relationship between Hagrid and the centaurs has taken a turn for the worse recently. Although they haven’t gotten into a fight yet, they are no longer harmonious.

Kyle can understand this.

The centaurs have always regarded the Forbidden Forest as their territory. Hagrid had already caused dissatisfaction among the centaurs when he kept the three-headed dog Luwei in it. Now he has directly brought a giant here. It is normal for them to object. .

After all, who would like to have two natural enemies living at their doorstep… Whether it is a three-headed dog or a giant, they can bulldoze the centaurs’ tribe in a matter of minutes if they go crazy.

 Unfortunately, the Forbidden Forest does not belong to the centaurs, and no matter how much they object, it is useless.

Unless they can defeat Dumbledore and overthrow Hogwarts.

 But if they have this kind of strength, it seems that they don’t have to worry about the three-headed dogs and giants anymore.

 …

 After staying with Hagrid for a while, Kyle was driven back to the castle by him.

In Hagrid’s words, as a professor, he really couldn’t stand Kyle’s idle behavior. Before he made some moves that affected the relationship between the two, it was better to keep out of sight.

 There is no other way, Kyle can only go back to the castle and look for another place to pass the time.

 He wandered aimlessly in the castle for a while, preparing to go to the underground classroom to have a look.

 But just as he was passing by the second floor, he was stopped by a portrait.

 “You seem a little confused.” The voice was very familiar.

Kyle turned his head and found that it was a portrait of the witch Violet. She was a friend of the Fat Lady, and the two often drank together. But what surprised Kyle was that there was something wrong with her eyes… How should I put it, a little too calm, as if she didn’t care about everything.

 It is hard to imagine that a person with such a pair of eyes would steal other people’s wine with the Fat Lady.

In addition, Kyle also had a very familiar feeling. Although I couldn’t tell, I was at least certain that the person in the portrait in front of me was definitely not Violet.

 “Who are you?” he asked nervously.

“It’s me.” Violet said again, but this time, there was a silver crown set with sapphires on her head.

 In an instant, Kyle recognized the other person. After so long, he almost forgot that there was such a person in the castle.

Who else could this crown be besides Rowena Ravenclaw?

“Can you control the portraits in the castle?” Kyle couldn’t help but ask.

 “Not really controlling,” Ravenclaw said calmly. “After all, I am just a memory now. The only difference between it and the portrait is that there is no frame.”

“That’s right, that’s right.” Violet’s voice changed and she said boldly: “And I do it voluntarily, Ms. Ravenclaw, I am very willing to share a picture frame with you.”

 But no one paid any attention to her.

“Then you… want to see Hogwarts today?” Kyle asked tentatively.

This seems to be the only way to explain why Rowena Ravenclaw suddenly possessed the portrait in the castle.

“No, my era ended a thousand years ago. What the castle becomes now has nothing to do with me.” Ravenclaw said, “I am observing you.”

 “Observe me?” Kyle pointed at himself.

“Yes.” Ravenclaw did not explain, but said again: “You seem a little confused.”

 “It’s a bit…” Kyle said.

Although he felt that he was just a little bored, since Ravenclaw said so, he was confused.

“It seems you don’t realize this.” Ravenclaw said softly.

 Then, the silver crown suddenly floated out of the portrait and appeared on top of Kyle’s head in the blink of an eye.

 Subconsciously, Kyle wanted to take it off.

 The effect brought by the crown was too powerful, and he was afraid that he could not control the feeling of being in control of everything.

“It’s okay, relax.” Ravenclaw’s voice came from his ears.

Kyle also realized that he seemed to have not changed, he was still the same as before.

“Sorry.” Kyle thought for a moment and asked, “What did you mean by being confused just now?”

“Simply put, the current knowledge system no longer gives you the desire to continue exploring.”

“From a student’s point of view, you have achieved perfection. Even in my time, few people can surpass you in this grade.”

 “Thank you, thank you.” Kyle said, smacking his lips.

This is considered a compliment… It should be counted.

 “And I’m glad you restrained your desires.”

 “Huh?” Kyle didn’t understand.

“Because you are not indulging in more powerful magic.”

Ravenclaw continued: “I have seen many geniuses. They often spend their entire lives chasing more dazzling magic and more powerful power, and slowly break away from the original intention of learning magic and turn it into power. servant.”

“I think you should go to the restricted section of the library and read it.” She asked suddenly.

Kyle nodded, “Okay, I admit that I violated the school rules.”

 There is no denying this. Not only did he go there, but he also took away nearly half of the banned books.

“No, that’s not the point,” Ravenclaw said. “We talked about you when Helena and I were talking.

“She told me that there once was a boy who was just like you, smart and gifted, above all his peers, and even most wizards.

“But the difference between you is that he has never wandered around the castle doing nothing like you.”

There was a hint of embarrassment on Kyle’s face.

 “To solve your laziness, you can choose a place.” Ravenclaw said.

“Choose a place?” Kyle asked subconsciously, “What to do?”

“Make up a lesson.” Ravenclaw said, “This is my way of thanking you. I’m very happy during this time, really very happy.”

Ravenclaw’s voice suddenly became much lighter, and this was also the first time she experienced an emotional change.

But this only lasted for a moment, and then disappeared again. She seemed to suddenly assume the identity of a professor, and said coldly:

“Your foundation is so poor that you are not even as good as a third-grade student. How can you have the nerve to wander around the castle?”

“That’s not what you just said.” Kyle muttered in his mind, but soon he realized something else.

Ravenclaw wants to give him extra lessons?

This surprise was so big that Kyle couldn’t believe it.

 “Do you really want to give me extra lessons?”

“If you don’t want to, I can give you other thanks.”

“No, no, this is fine.” Kyle said repeatedly.

Only a fool would not want to take supplementary lessons from Ravenclaw.

“I know a place that is quiet enough and no one disturbs me.” Kyle subconsciously thought of the Room of Requirement, which was the most suitable place.

 …

 At this time, Ron, Harry, and Hermione just came out of the library.

Ron, who was walking at the front, turned the corner and saw Kyle who was in a daze in front of the portrait.

 “Kyle, what are you doing here…oh!”

Before he finished speaking, he saw Kyle suddenly take a step forward, and then the whole person disappeared.

 Yes, it disappeared without any sound.

 “Ron, what are you calling?” Harry and Hermione came from behind.

“Didn’t you see it?” Ron said happily, pointing to the portrait of Violet, “Kyle, he was right there just now!”

 “Where?” Hermione looked at the empty corridor in front of her. “Are you dazzled?”

“Absolutely not, he was here just now!” Ron said, “It must have been Disapparation.”

“Impossible.” Hermione said firmly: “Apparition is prohibited in the castle, you know it.”

“But I did see it!” Ron insisted, “and there was a silver thing on his head. That must be Ravenclaw’s diadem.”

Then he ran to the portrait again and said, “You saw it too, right? There was a person standing here just now. You must have seen it too, right?”

“Hey, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” The disturbed Violet glanced at Ron dissatisfied, “I’m always alone here.”

 “You didn’t see it?”

“What did I lie to you for?” Violet said impatiently, “Get out of here quickly and don’t disturb my sleep.”

“Did you hear that?” Hermione came over, “Don’t be stupid, Apparition is prohibited in the castle, and Kyle is no exception.”

“Yeah.” Harry also said, “You must be reading too many books and your eyesight is dazzled.”

“Hermione, we really don’t need to waste time in the library.”

 “No, there is another place we haven’t looked for yet.”

“where?”

 “Restricted Book Zone!”

“That’s against school rules, unless we can get the professor’s signature.”

 …

The two of them walked further and further away, and Ron, who stopped in place, was a little confused.

 He clearly saw Kyle just now, why didn’t the person in the portrait see it?

 Is it true that he is dazzled?

impossible…
