time at hogwarts
84. The pain of prying open the skull
Unlike the students who were beaming and couldn't wait for the holiday, Magos became more and more nervous and anxious towards the end, which indicated that Snape's assessment was only a few days away. He obviously underestimated the difficulty of Occlumency. Even with Snape's annotations, he could only successfully use this spell with a very low probability so far, and it couldn't last long. He didn't know if it was considered learned.
Harry and the others knew what he was going to face next, and they expressed their concern for him with sympathy, pity and snickering.Magos was not in the mood to pay attention to the two bad friends who were gloating about their misfortune.As for Hermione, she comforted him that it was already very good to be able to occasionally use this spell in less than a month. She hadn't succeeded yet?Ever since Magos told her about Quirrell that night, her attitude toward him has obviously improved. At least she now agrees with him targeting Quirrell. At the same time, she often borrows some anti-terrorist tools from the library. Read the magic book in case you need it.There is no way, Quirrell only teaches spells, don't count on him as to how to prevent black magic.
This Christmas, Harry and Ron, including Ron's three brothers, stayed at school as in the original book. Hermione and Magos were preparing to go back, and Ron ran over to ask him if he wanted to go to Romania with his parents. Charlie, after he asked Magos like this, he remembered that he said he wanted to go there when school started. Unexpectedly, he still remembered. Magos said that it was boring for him to go alone, and they would wait until next time for all of them. Let's go together.
What is very inconsistent with the original work now is that Harry and Ron lack the cynicism from Malfoy. Of course, no one will know this.Malfoy has changed so much that others can't see it, but Magos knows how different Malfoy, who still looks unlikable now, is from the original.In fact, Malfoy once invited Magos to visit his home, but he refused because he asked about his father.
The closer to Christmas, the colder the weather gets. Recently, even leaning against the fire in the Gryffindor common room and the blazing fire in the Great Hall still make them feel the cold winter, and there are winds blowing on the corridors. The draft in the hall was bitingly cold, and the classroom window glass was rattled by the wild cold wind.
This afternoon there was a Potions class at the end. Harry and Ron felt that it was a pain to take Potions class in this weather. The mist coming out of their mouths often caused them to accidentally take the wrong herbs or mix up the wrong quantities, which made them... It meant their failure, and failure meant deduction of points and ridicule. He did not tolerate Gryffindor at all because he liked Magos. He still took the opportunity to find trouble as before, especially for Harry.This made Harry hate Snape even more. He couldn't understand how Magos could tolerate such a person. He was even more unbearable than his Uncle Vernon.
Today was no exception. Today they were refining a potion that could treat burns. Harry was prepared not to give Snape any chance to have an attack today. He carefully sorted the needed herbs and put them in order every time Harry When he vented his anger, he tried not to block his sight, which allowed him to complete the potion without making any mistakes. He gave Magos and the others a proud look, indicating that he would escape this time.
However, what makes him extremely happy and sad is that he doesn't know that for a teacher who wants to find trouble with you, there is no such thing as "opportunity".I saw Snape walking to Harry's side with a sullen face and his signature sneer.Magos obviously saw Harry's expression suddenly turn bitter.
"Look...look at our Mr. Potter, he is so smart. He has arranged the weight and order in advance." His words attracted the attention of both Slytherin and Gryffindor, who laughed from Slytherin's gloating. The helpless sighs of Gryffindor and Gryffindor can tell what they meant - here we go again.
"I wonder if the clever Mr. Potter can use this method to refine advanced potions and unknown potions?" After speaking, Snape looked at him coldly, "Don't think you have mastered any tricks and... "
"Professor, I didn't..."
"Mr. Potter ignores classroom discipline, one point will be deducted from Gryffindor." Harry started but was interrupted by Snape with a sneer.
"I knew it." Ron muttered quietly next to Magos.
"Potions is a rigorous but irregular advanced knowledge." He glanced around the classroom. The Slytherins stopped laughing and sat upright, as if someone else had just laughed. The Gryffindors also listened attentively with their heads down. Snape's explanation.
"The more advanced the potion, the harder it is to find the rules. The steps and sequences of the potions you see in the book were obtained by countless senior wizards with their lives. This is for you to learn from experience. I don't want you to use this to be complacent." Magos didn't know if it was an illusion, but when Snape said the last sentence, he felt Snape glance at him.
After Snape finished speaking, he sneered and left Harry's side. Harry was obviously in a very bad mood now, but no one else could
Similarly, after finally completing the task assigned by the teacher, not only was he not praised, but it also served as a counterexample to warn other students. Magos felt that it was good that he did not stand up and get angry on the spot.
Snape paused for a moment while passing by Hermione and Magos, and then pretended that he had not seen them finish the potion and walked to Neville who was working hard to make the potion.
Neville was also a hard-working guy. He should have been able to make this potion. Unfortunately, because Snape stood next to him and watched him refining the potion, he was too nervous and hurriedly looked at the herbs around him. Just throw it in without looking, and the result is self-evident.
"Bang..." The unlucky child screamed in pain.Snape angrily asked Seamus and Dean to take him to the school hospital. This scene was so familiar that Magos felt that Snape had gone too far this time.But before he could say anything, Hermione stood up angrily.
"Professor Snape, it was obvious that Neville could succeed just now. If you hadn't stood next to him and made him too nervous, he would not have failed."
Snape's eyes narrowed at anyone questioning his authority, "So it's Miss Know-it-all." His title for Hermione made the Slytherin students laugh again.Hermione's face turned red with anger.
"You mean that when he makes potions, he needs to clear out all the people around him? Just so that he can successfully refine a potion to treat burns?" Snape's words made Slytherin burst into laughter.Hermione was so angry with him that she looked like she was about to cry.Magos stood up quickly.
"Professor Snape, Hermione didn't mean that."
"Mr. Will, pay attention to your identity." Snape suddenly said loudly. "Another five points will be deducted from Gryffindor. This is your punishment for being disrespectful to the professor. Okay, everyone, sit down. From now on, no one can post questions privately without my permission."
Looking at Snape's indifferent face, Magos helplessly pulled Hermione to sit down.For the rest of the time, Gryffindors were feebly making potions, Harry and Ron were no longer in the mood to talk secretly, and Hermione kept making potions with a cold face. This weird atmosphere lasted until the end of Potions class.
"Mr. Will, come to my office later. get out of class is over." Snape said coldly, shook off his robe and walked out of the classroom.The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly relaxed a lot. The Slytherin people now turned their gloating eyes to Magos and left in whispers.Malfoy and Osido looked at him worriedly, but said nothing and followed the other Slytherins out of the classroom.As Slytherin left, Gryffindors immediately gathered next to Magos, and they all discussed why Snape asked Magos to go to his office. However, no matter what they guessed, the common understanding was that Nothing good happens.
Magos dismissed the other students and looked at Hermione who was still silent with some worry, "Hermione, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Hermione showed an ugly smile, "Go to the office quickly. I guess he's here to test your Occlumency. I'm going back first." After saying that, he picked up the books on the table and walked out. .
"Harry, Ron, look at her, Professor Snape is going too far today." Magos called Harry and Ron, who were also unhappy, and asked them to leave with Hermione.He took a deep breath and walked to Snape's office in a familiar manner.
After entering the door, Snape didn't talk nonsense. He said coldly that Legilimency would be nothing to a person without Si Hao's defense. At most, it would just be a headache.But if it is a person who has used Occlumency, it is not a simple headache, but a pain as if someone has forcibly pried open the skull.
After hearing what he said, Magos looked horrified, "Nima, tell me now, is it too late for me to regret it..."
However, Snape obviously didn't give him a chance to go back on his words, and asked him to use Occlumency in a cold voice.But I don’t know if Magos was frightened by his words. He failed several times in a row. Just when Snape’s face became more and more ugly, he finally made himself forget his fear for the time being and successfully performed this Curse.
Snape frowned and looked at Magos, who had a dull expression. "Is this the Occlumency you have mastered?" After saying that, he used Legilimency on him without any warning.
Magos's paper-like Occlumency was broken in an instant, and he screamed and lay on the ground holding his head.
Snape seemed to be really not interested in his memory. After breaking his Occlumency, he stopped Legilimency and looked at the screaming Magos calmly.
Magos held his head and felt as if it had been hurting for a century, and his brain felt like it had been blown into a ball of paste.Drowsily, it took him a long time to remember that he was in Snape's office.
Harry and the others knew what he was going to face next, and they expressed their concern for him with sympathy, pity and snickering.Magos was not in the mood to pay attention to the two bad friends who were gloating about their misfortune.As for Hermione, she comforted him that it was already very good to be able to occasionally use this spell in less than a month.
