As the students walked out of the classroom in groups of two or three, with great relish, discussing the new and interesting experience.

A couple of Ravenclaw girls, for example –

“Honestly, at first I especially wanted to leave, it was so eerie, but now I’m starting to miss it.”

“Me too, how cute that little skeleton is!”

“… When’s the next rune class is?”

“Let’s see, it’s Friday.”

” So long to wait!”

“I’d say we’re pretty lucky, if you think about it, only sixth years have practical classes …”

“Haha, who let us have no lack of time and knowledge, I must tell the other year students!”

Their voices faded away.

Percy and Penelope avoided the crowd, their faces had mixed expressions as their originally hidden relationship came to light. Percy, in particular, kept frowning.

“If they find out, they find out, what’s the big deal?” Penelope said as she looked at him.

” Penelope, if you had three brothers and a sister at school, any gossip would reach your parents’ ears.” Percy said, “Especially Fred and George, they’d be happy to help with that.”

Percy seems to have a headache, although he also often writes letters to snitch, there are legitimate reasons, such as the most recent one “Mom, Fred, and George fanned the school ghost on parade with a fan, got fifty points deducted plus three weeks of detention …”

He could imagine how his twin brothers would playfully speak to him –

“Oh, Percy~ our model student finally got the hang of it~”

“Gotta tell Mom the happy news!”

“And Bill and Charlie, you got ahead of them.”







“And how can you beat little Ronnie and Ginny?”

Penelope had a horrified look on her face as she stammered, “You, your parents, will know?”

“Don’t worry,” Percy muttered, “they’ll at best get you gifts for the holidays and invite you over for a visit …”

Penelope’s eyes widened.

During the meal in the great hall at noon, Felix talked with the loudmouth Professor Kettleburn and the Nearly Headless Nick, only to explain that he and the two ghosts were friends, and he helped to clear up some misunderstandings and put the finishing touches on the public opinion of the “ghost salvation practice”.

In a short time, these words will spread throughout Hogwarts, and eventually, the heat will pass, the attention will be less and less, everything like the tide fades.

The truth of the matter, will also be submerged in time, occasionally flooded with a similar pattern of blossoms.

The time that followed flew by, Hogwarts is like a well-organized machine moving forward, the professors and students are a part of the whole behemoth, being pushed forward, no unexpected breakdown in the process.

Until the Easter holidays, there were only so many things that could leave an impression on Felix’s mind –

he hinted to Dumbledore about Dobby’s awkward situation, and the old man picked up on his subtext and did not rush to turn over the case for Hagrid, the diary that still had a strong dark aura locked up in the Headmaster’s office

“Felix, you’re doing the right thing.” The old man said – unfortunately, he did not know that Felix intended to cast a Confundo on Lucius.

The fact that his assistant had completed the first set of rune circuits, but still trudged along the path of repairing the beaded pouch.

The snakeskin of the basilisk was constantly tanned with magic, a process that was extremely slow and Felix did not want to settle for anything less than a runic enchanted cape, plus an inner armour, to be made from the skin of the basilisk and the fire dragon.

The skin of the snake had finally returned to normal, as he had been told because Felix had not been able to contact with the skin of the basilisk lately.

Belby told him in one of his casual conversations that he and Professor Snape had completed the first round of improvements to the wolfsbane potion, reducing the cost to a third of the original and, of course, making it taste more than three times worse

“Sounds good, maybe you’ll share an Order of Merlin together.”

“I don’t think so, look at the newspapers in recent times! It’s all about ‘ the gospel of werewolves’ and the ‘Werewolf Registration Amendment Act’ again, only registered and regulated werewolves have the right to buy wolfsbane potion, the Ministry of Magic is using my potion to recruit the scattered werewolves… …”

“It’s not necessarily a bad thing, as long as their list …”

” Hehe! It’s been leaked more than once, and many werewolves would rather remain anonymous than use the Potion, not to mention they can’t afford it.”







Belby is very dissatisfied with the Ministry of Magic’s approach.



In the latest dueling class, the young wizards learned a new spell – ‘Full Body-Bind Curse’ – the effect of which is to cause the opponent’s arms and legs to clamp shut, stiffen up and fall to the ground like planks of wood.

Felix explained, “The Full Body-Bind Curse is included in the book Curses and Counter-Curses, and it is wonderfully described by Professor Vindictus Viridian.”

“The spell is so simple that even underclassmen can learn it …”

Speaking of which, Harry and Ron looked at Hermione, who had petrified Neville with this very spell in her first year.

“Of course, as far as I personally believe, its effect is not as direct and effective as the Stunning Spell, and its might is not as potent. For example, at your level, holding a wand and casting this spell at me, I might just stiffen slightly. But … it’s enough to deal with the trouble at school, it’s perfectly adequate.”

Felix and Snape cooperated in the great hall to conjure up hundreds of mats for the students to prevent injuries when they practice.

“Ron! You should have fallen on the mat!” Hermione said to Ron, who stiffly smashed on the floor.

Ron grimaced after making contact with the spell and said, “Easy for you to say, can you still adjust your fall when you’re hit?”

Hermione panicked and changed the subject.

Felix and Snape watched the young wizards practice, the two discussing with each other.

“Gee, even such a simple spell is still not mastered by half of the students.” Snape exuded a low-tension atmosphere around him.

“But they’re improving fast, aren’t they? Wouldn’t it give you a sense of accomplishment to see clumsy students become excellent in your own hands, Severus?”

Snape gave him a stern glare.

Felix counted off on wagging his fingers, ” Disarming Charm, Shield Charm, Tongue-Tying Curse, Full Body-Bind Curse, and Belby also taught the Supersensory Charm and Expulso Curse in his Defense Against the Dark Arts class.”

“Add to the list their own mastery of prank spells, and the number is already quite large.”

Snape’s eyes looked at him, “What you mean is–”

“Increase the importance of other sections, such as pace, situation judgment and these, especially practical combat.”

“I have no problem with that, Felix,” Snape said softly, his eyes very indistinct.
