Settle at Hogwarts

Chapter 40 Famous



When Tabor saw his name in the Daily Prophet the next day, he immediately knew what Professor Slughorn's unsaid words meant.A sense of crisis suddenly arose in my heart.

"Tubo, look here, there was a major accident at Hogwarts, and many students were injured, but a great hero emerged among them who was brave enough to save the professor. He, Tubo Prince, is Slytherin. The rising star….”

After listening to Zane next to him read out his name in the Daily Prophet and the exaggerated praise, Tabor glanced at the professor's chair with some suspicion.In fact, the description of himself takes up too much space, which greatly downplays the failure of the professors at Hogwarts to protect the students, and the fact that Kettleburn deformed magical creatures and brought them into the auditorium, causing the accident. process.

Tabor felt that all this must have been directed by someone.

It's just that Tabor is not sure whether it was Dumbledore or Principal Dippet who did it for Hogwarts, or whether Slughorn wanted to make himself or the Prince family famous, so he let the report describe it in such a long way. Own.

Shaking his head, Tabor continued to scoop the mashed potatoes in the bowl, and tried his best to ignore the various looks from the surrounding classmates and professors.

Tubber knew that with the appearance of this report, he had become famous in the entire British wizarding community.But this reputation doesn't have much benefit in Tubo's opinion. Could it be that he can really apply for the Order of Merlin just by relying on this reputation?Well, the Order of Merlin seems to have no practical benefit to Tubo now, it will only disturb his peaceful life.

After finishing breakfast quickly, Tubo did not wait for the other snakes, but went to the History of Magic classroom alone.

Because it was still early, there were no other students in the History of Magic classroom.However, Professor Binns, who had been teaching History of Magic at Hogwarts for some time, was floating on the podium, looking out the window with dull eyes.

Tabor suddenly felt a little strange, and the curiosity in his heart immediately suppressed other chaotic thoughts.The thoughts that I was still thinking about how to explain to my family disappeared instantly, and all I could think about was about Professor Binns.

For example, does Professor Binns know his status at this time?If he knew, would he really love teaching so much and would he continue to be a professor of this course?Or is he just a ghost with some remaining obsessions? Only by constantly teaching students can he survive in the form of a ghost in a sense?

Also, most ghosts cannot touch anything, except Peeves, but is Professor Binns also special?As the only ghost professor at Hogwarts and the oldest professor, he must be different from other ghosts. This seems to be reflected in his ability to correct homework and test papers.

Perhaps because Tabor's gaze was too intense, Professor Binns looked up at the still empty classroom and left the classroom directly across the blackboard.

Tabor lost the object of his observation, curled his lips in disappointment, and gave up the idea of ​​studying ghosts.

Most of the ghosts in Hogwarts had distinguished identities before their deaths, and were known to many people after becoming ghosts.If a ghost is really captured for research, it might trigger riots among the entire ghost community.

Putting aside his sudden curiosity, Tabor continued to think about his own things.

After practicing magic skills for more than a month, although he has not yet participated in a formal duel, Tabor feels that his control over magic spells has significantly improved.

From the very beginning, even stationary targets may not be able to be completely hit, but now, my spell can fall on the alchemy puppet every time.And he can completely control the magic output of commonly used magic spells. This improvement is almost visible to the naked eye.

Professor Slughorn was not good at dueling and could not teach much, but Tubo felt that he had read so many literary works in his previous life and could learn from them.

"The control is almost there. Next, you should be able to practice the stability of casting while moving. Well, it is also good to practice the casting speed. It is essential to cast the armor spell quickly. You can do it later if you have time. Practice wandless spellcasting just in case and for sneak attacks.”

Tabor muttered while recording his thoughts in his notebook.

At this time, some students had already come to the classroom, but the number was not very large.The fire last night sent most of the first-year students, except Slytherin, into the school infirmary, and they probably haven't come out yet.

So most of the people are destined to be absent from this class.

Tabor didn't care how many people were in the classroom, he just quietly flipped through the magic books he borrowed from the library.

As for the history of magic course, for Tabor, who has an almost photographic memory, he only needs to memorize all the teaching materials before the exam and he will definitely get good results.

The Slytherin students were used to the atmosphere of Professor Binns' class. They all lay on the table to catch up on their sleep until the bell rang for the end of get out of class.

After the morning class ended, Tabor and Zane walked towards the auditorium together. Along the way, Zane looked at Tabor like he was looking at precious animals, which made Tabor feel extremely uncomfortable.I couldn't help but curse in my heart, wondering if my roommate had been cursed by Caractacus.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. I remember I said when I started school, don't look at me like that."

Hearing Tabor’s angry words, Zane was not angry. He just stretched out an arm and put it on Tabub’s shoulder, and then said in a regretful tone: “Brother, you are really famous. You just walked out of the hall from After you left, there were many girls chasing you out wanting to communicate with you!"

Tabor frowned, and the premonition that he was about to be in trouble since he saw his name appearing in the Daily Prophet in the morning became a little stronger.

"Zane, you know I don't like those things. We should study hard now and practice magic hard. Will we still be afraid of not being favored by beautiful witches in the future?" Tabor said casually.

Zane shrugged and sighed in a slightly inflected voice: "Of course, it's just that in this castle full of secrets and vitality, your life is too boring. We are far from needing to worry about the wizard level. There are still several years until the exam time!”

Tabor shook his head helplessly, knowing that in Hogwarts, a relatively stable UK with many excellent professors, students like Zane are what children should be like.

While eating lunch in the auditorium, Tabor obviously felt that there were more people talking about him than in the morning, but no one directly disturbed his meal.
