273. Funny funny…
"You should know by now that Boggart is completely harmless, but attack magic is also ineffective against it. Only the spell "Funny" can subdue it──note, if you don't face your fear seriously and force it to transform, The spell won’t work either.”
After using the exorcism spell to drive the boggart back into the clock, Adair turned around as if nothing had happened and continued the class. However, most people could not regard what had just happened as a mere demonstration. Seamus mustered up the courage to raise his hand and ask. .
"Professor? Is that... the mysterious person just now?"
"He is the only wizard who is so ugly." Adair's tone was very cold. "Didn't Potter also recognize it? Do you want to waste everyone's time with such a stupid question?"
"Uh, no, I mean, I just wanted to ask why none of the professor's spells worked..."
"You want me to decorate the bodies of my family members to make them ridiculous?"
"No, this, that, I'm not..."
"Okay, five points from Gryffindor." Adair waved his hand impatiently, "Use your brain when you ask a question next time. Now please start thinking about what you are afraid of and how to make the spell work. Wait and come forward to deal with the Boggarts one by one."
Seamus lowered his head pitifully, but Elaine didn't sympathize with him...
He knew it was a landmine and stepped on it deliberately. He deserved to be blown to pieces.
"Professor." A Slytherin student raised his hand fearfully and asked, "Do we have to deal with Boggart? Well, I don't think I can successfully use it──"
"Definitely." Adair replied in a non-negotiable tone, "Boggarts can't hurt you. If you can't produce a funny effect, then use a simple expulsion spell to push the boggarts back to the clock... …If not, immediately step back and let another person step forward.”
"Plural people will confuse Boggarts. Everyone fears something different. It can't become two things at the same time. When you deal with Boggarts in the future, you can involve other people. This will make Boggarts confused." Gert becomes easier to deal with.”
Speaking of this, Adair snorted disdainfully.
"Compared to Dementors, Boggarts are really nothing to be afraid of. In the face of fear, escaping and being afraid are definitely not good methods. Use your willpower and courage... Besides, at your age, how can you possibly know the real What is the horror of.”
When the words were spoken to such an extent, it would be difficult for other students to protest no matter how reluctant they were.
And what Adair said was right, her Boggart that turned into Voldemort was scary enough, but that Boggart did nothing and was still imprisoned in the clock in the end.
Everyone lined up in a row, and almost all the Gryffindors were in the front row.
Elaine, Hermione and Daphne were in the center of the team.
[What is the anchor afraid of? Are you afraid of it? 】
[Bet on your ex-girlfriend with a spicy stick... Speaking of which, what does the host’s ex-girlfriend look like? 】
[I think it’s the good brother who opened a restaurant together in the past]
[No, the anchor is afraid of having children, think of Daphne’s expression when she said she wanted to give birth]
Looking at the subtitles in the live broadcast room, Elaine was a little lost.
She was also curious about what she was afraid of.
Adair...
Maybe it was true before, but now, what is there to be afraid of when your subordinates are defeated?
Ex-girlfriend……
It was even more impossible that as time passed, she almost forgot what that woman looked like.
Pregnancy...this...is so delicate.
Rather than being afraid of pregnancy, it is better to say that I am afraid of being taken advantage of by a man!
"Elaine? Are you okay?"
Seeing Elaine's expression getting darker and darker, Hermione asked worriedly.
"...I'm fine." Elaine shook her head and used her Occlumency technique with all her strength. She didn't want to reveal her fear to others, "Have you thought about it?"
"Well, I don't know what I'm afraid of." Hermione showed a rare expression of confusion, "It's all fake anyway, I think I'll just improvise."
"What I'm afraid of..." Daphne sighed deeply and glanced at Elaine, "It's hard to say."
"Is it difficult to describe?" Hermione asked curiously, "Speaking of it, if it is a very abstract concept, how will the Boggart change? For example, death or bad luck..."
"You have to ask it, not me. I won't change."
"Quiet!" Adair raised his voice and said, "We have thought about it, and we are ready to start... By the way, if someone doesn't want others to know what they are afraid of, just raise your hand to indicate it when you come forward, and I will change Let me bring out the curtain to cover you."
Hearing what Adair said, several people with ugly faces relaxed a little.
"But I want to remind you that when you deal with a Boggart alone, the difficulty will be greatly increased because there is a curtain to cover it. If you are stunned by the Boggart, there will be no one to help you. You must assess the situation yourself."
"Then, Mr. Potter is the first one to show us the strength of the 'Chosen Boy'."
Harry stepped forward palely.
Every time in class, Adair would always ask him and Elaine to take turns to be the experimental subjects. The two had long been used to it... Elaine was the dementor last time, and this time it was indeed his turn for the Boggart, so Harry was also mentally prepared.
He walked to the place where everyone was vacated. Adair made sure that he was ready and did not need a curtain, so he used a magic spell to hit the clock... Then, a dementor slowly floated out from the clock. The hooded face turned toward Harry, and a glowing, crusted, rotten hand reached toward him.
"H-Hall the gods for protection!"
Everyone shuddered, and Harry must have too, because he did not use funny tricks, but subconsciously shouted the Patronus Curse... After Adair's intensive training for two consecutive weeks, this has become a habit for all young wizards. reflex action.
A silver shapeless Patronus floated out from the wand, blocking the way between the Dementor and Harry. The Dementor seemed to be startled. It took two steps back, and then tripped over its own robes...
Got tripped over...
This was the first time everyone saw a dementor wrestling. Many people laughed, and Harry hurriedly chanted a spell.
"Funny!"
The Dementor, who had just gotten up, fell hard again and stopped there, at a loss.
Seeing this, Adair nodded slightly and raised his hand to signal the next student to come forward.
Adair didn't lie. Compared with Dementors, Boggarts really have nothing to fear.
Things were going very smoothly.
The Boggart successively turned into a dragon whose skin and marrow was removed, an eyeball that was originally bloody but was later washed out, a hairless werewolf, a poor spider with one foot missing...and Adair. Own.
Yes, Seamus’ Boggart is Adair (in male form).
When Adair saw him appearing, he glanced at Seamus, so frightened that he almost dropped the wand in his hand.
But Adair didn't say anything. Even when Seamus changed the boggart out of his chest, she pretended not to see it.
...This magnanimity was far beyond Snape's.
Thanks to this, the atmosphere in the room became much more relaxed and the queue slowly moved forward.
The students' fear at the beginning has turned into excitement and expectation now.
Soon it was Hermione's turn, and she stepped forward confidently.
However, the Boggart turned into something she had never expected──
Her Boggart form is Elaine.
It was Elaine who was holding the Sword of Gryffindor, full of murderous intent, and showing disdain.
