It looked like there would be no possibility of him ever pulling Professor Lupin into a dueling class.
Felix thought with some regret.
If he did, it would be hard to tell if Snape would just give that new professor a vicious spell or turn his wand on himself, the instigator, when the time came.
As for Snape’s comment about Remus Lupin, Felix could only take it as a reminder.
At least the fact that Dumbledore still let Lupin give lectures to the young wizards, including Harry Potter, when Sirius Black is causing a ruckus, shows that the headmaster trusts him quite a bit.
The next day, in the third-year class of ancient Runes, Felix introduced himself to the young wizards off the podium.
“Most of you-”
Felix’s eyes swept over the packed classroom, pausing slightly at some familiar faces – Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Longbottom from Gryffindor, as well as Malfoy and Millicent Bulstrode from Slytherin …
“-all have an impression of me from dueling class, but this class is Ancient Runes, and you will notice that there is a big difference between them. In the eyes of the public, Ancient Runes class is not a practical subject.”
A Slytherin girl raised her hand, her eyes feverishly staring at the dolls laid out on the table, “Professor, did you create this golem using ancient runes!”
“This young lady, your name?”
“Daphne,” the girl said, “Daphne Greengrass.”
Felix nodded, “Miss Greengrass, as I said, in the eyes of the Public,” he emphasized the last word, “although I have worked hard to get rid the ancient runes of their previous stereotypes, from what I have seen so far, it only has some effect in some schools.”
“However, you represent the future, and I believe more and more people will be able to confront the existence and value of practical magic runes …”
Loud applause rang out off the stage as Professor Hap’s words made their hearts pound.
“Next, let’s start the roll call-”
“Lavender Brown!”
“Millicent Bulstrode!”
“Vincent Crabbe!”
“Seamus Finnigan!”
“Hermione Granger!”
“Daphne Greengrass!”
“Gregory Goyle!”
“Neville Longbottom!”
“Draco Malfoy!”
“Harry Potter!”
“Parvati Patil!”
“Pansy Parkinson!”
“Dean Thomas!”
“Ron Weasley!”
“Blaise Zabini!”
…
It took Felix a good four to five minutes to read the names as a whole.
The number of students is simply too much, and the thought of correcting the assignments of this many people … Huh? It seems that he does not need to correct ah.
He glanced at Hermione and decided to give her a little more burden, even the part of the quiz can also be given to her.
With various thoughts in mind, Felix said without a trace: “Next, as usual, I will introduce you to the learning assignments for this academic year, including translational and practical magic runes – which is my own way of dividing them, and in addition to that, I will also give you a taste of the wonders of runic artefacts .”
Felix waved his wand and made a golem on the podium move, instantly attracting a large wave of attention.
“That’s right, golem, I think you guys should have heard of it?” Felix said feigningly, his words drew a wave of cheers, not only heard of it, many of them had borrowed it from their seniors to move it.
He continued, “Fortunately, in addition to it, we will be introducing another runic artefacts this year, the Sneakoscope.”
Felix saw Draco raise his hand, he is using his left hand – his right hand wrapped in bandages, a strap hanging around his neck.
‘The injured student from Hagrid’s class? That’s quite a coincidence.’ He thought to himself.
“Mr. Malfoy?”
“I beg your pardon, Professor, my right hand isn’t quite … accessible. I’ve been injured. What I’m trying to say is, aren’t Sneakoscope something made by those groups of alchemists? I have quite a few high-end Sneakoscope at home that can envelop the entire manor.” Draco smugly commented, looking provocatively at Ron Weasley as he spoke of the manor.
Ron glared at him.
Felix looked at him with peculiar eyes, enveloping the entire manor … Is this one of the Malfoy family’s defences?
How am I going to break in …
“Ahem!” Felix pulled his stray thoughts together as he explained to Draco, ” What you said is correct, but I have improved the method of making the Sneakoscope by incorporating a part of the rune circuit.”
“What is rune circuit?”
“You can understand it as connecting multiple magic runes together to achieve a specific effect,” Felix said briefly.
His heart stirred, he took the opportunity to promote the half-shadowed Magic Rune Club: “I will consider explaining this part of knowledge in the Magic Rune Club, the notice will be posted in the near future, of course – there’s assessment.”
Next, Felix spent about twenty minutes talking about the history of ancient runes, powerful ancient magic, ancient runic artefacts, the secret dusty history of wizards … whichever it is, it’s all exciting enough.
It must be said that he succeeded in motivating the young wizards to learn.
But not without objections, during the questioning session, another Slytherin girl raised her hand, “Professor, I have a question.”
“Miss Parkinson?”
Pansy Parkinson crossed her arms over her chest, her face delicate and narrow, her short hair down to her cheeks, giving the impression of condescension and meanness even without speaking.
She inclined her head and said, “Perhaps my words will be too blunt, but since the runic artefacts have been replaced by alchemy, it means that it is not adapted to the times, so why dig it up again from the grave?”
“Miss Parkinson, if we look purely at the facts, alchemy does dominate the wizarding world today …”
Felix paused and said to the class, “Before I answer that question, let me ask you a question. Does anyone know about Pensieve?”
Hermione raised her hand first.
Parkinson quipped, “That’s the thing to check your memory, there’s one in my house. No one would care about it, though.”
“Very well, Miss Parkinson, but next time answer the question after raising your hand.” Felix stared into her eyes, “I suppose you’ll remember, won’t you?”
Parkinson lowered her head, “Oh, yes, Professor.”
“Can anyone else provide more detailed information … Miss Granger?”
Hermione stood up and recited a string of words, “The Pensieve can view and store memories, and it can reproduce faithfully any details from the memory owner’s subconscious mind. Some wise wizards use it to examine and categorize their thoughts, but most people stay away from it.”
Felix nodded, “It has been very comprehensive. I should add that the Pensieve is made with an ancient concept, and you will find it difficult to classify it in terms of ‘alchemical artefacts’ or ‘runic artefacts’, as it contains shades of both.”
He looked at the young wizards, “When an alchemist wants to go further, he is bound to come into contact with the knowledge of Runes, whether he wants to admit it or not.”
“The reasoning is simple – most of those cherished, ancient artefacts contain rune circuits or some variant of them, and the two are inherently inseparable.”
Harry held up his hand and Felix nodded at him.
He asked with some excitement, “Professor Hap, if an alchemist has mastered numerous runes, why can’t he study ancient magic incidentally?”
Felix explained, “First, top alchemists are sensible enough to know what they want. Alchemy itself is a vast field, requiring a vast amount of knowledge to be mastered. Limited by their talent, they must allocate their time and energy wisely.”
“Furthermore, you don’t think that if you master enough runes, you can learn ancient magic, do you?”
“I have to remind you, Potter, that there are still many thresholds waiting for you to move from magic runes to ancient magic.”
Looking at the students’ seemingly understanding expressions, Felix knew he might have spoken too deeply, and he clapped his hands: “Alright, next let’s take a look at these two runic artefacts.”
