A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 371 Choice
Felix turned his head away from the Slytherin witch who was staring at him, cleared his throat, and continued: "I have analyzed it with the professors, and there are two main shortcomings of yours. One is the spells you have mastered. Not enough to deal with all kinds of complex situations. Like magic flames—"

He paused and didn't continue talking.

"And the second shortcoming is the lack of practice, or actual combat. It is not the kind of duel game in duel class where each other draws out their wands and prepares in advance. I mean how to deal with sudden crises. This is related to your own experience. related."

"There was a time when Hogwarts had a tradition of traveling for a year after graduation. It's probably similar to a few close friends traveling together to see the magic customs in different parts of the world..."

"However, because of the Wizarding Wars, and in recent years, the ministries of magic of various countries have tightened their policies. If you want to go to a country, you must report in advance and obtain the permission of the local ministry of magic. As a result, this kind of behavior is not very popular."

Felix recounted this period of history, giving them a general impression.

"In the next month or so, as classroom No. [-] becomes more and more perfect, you will be exposed to simulated dangerous scenes one by one to increase your experience. Not only me, but other professors will also appear here to give you guide."

"Of course," Felix said after thinking for a while, "Professor Moody may have other arrangements. He prefers to test how you deal with danger in real scenarios. You should have a better understanding of his character..."

More than one student has a bitter face. Professor Moody's rough personality is famous for his boldness in class. Hogwarts students have suffered a lot. Which student has not been pointed at and read a few times? jinx?
However, according to a student who did not want to be named, although Professor Moody felt terrible when he cast a curse on himself, he felt a strange sense of pleasure when he watched him cast a curse on others roughly. ...

"As a candidate for a warrior," Felix raised his voice, bringing the students back to their senses, "or students who are selected to participate in exchanges and demonstrate the achievements of Hogwarts teaching, you will have the opportunity to come into contact with many advanced The spell, the most direct way is that the restricted section of the library will be opened to you."

"All you need to do is register, and you can see all kinds of advanced magic books."

The students discussed in a low voice, their eyebrows beaming. Felix even heard someone mention "black magic", and he raised his eyebrows.

"I should remind you that black magic was banned in previous tournaments, even this one," he said uncertainly: "The Ministry of Magic is still in intense negotiations..."

"That means we might face the Dark Arts?" Harry asked in surprise.

"No, that's not the case." Felix explained: "The bottom line of the Ministry of Magic is that warriors are not allowed to use black magic on warriors. But Durmstrang proposed that when breaking through the level, it is 'reasonable' to use black magic on non-human creatures." - such as those powerful and deadly magical animals - using black magic."

"Vagadou and Ilvermorny also agreed. The dispute now is which black magic is allowed to be used. People from the Ministry of Magic are working overtime to sort out a list."

"So we can use black magic too?" Collins pressed. "As long as it's on that list of what?"

"Maybe the rules allow it, but for Hogwarts students, there will be no professors to give you pointers on this." Felix said calmly. "I know that some of you may not be unfamiliar with black magic, but after all, you have to consider the impact - if you use it openly, it will attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic and the outside world will question Hogwarts' educational philosophy."

He shrugged his shoulders: "It's been a few years since the war, and most British wizards still hate black magic."

Collins looked at him defiantly. "So, as long as you don't get seen, you're fine?"

Felix stared at her and smiled slightly: "You're right, Ms. Foley, whether you use black magic or not doesn't affect the judges' marks. But let me tell you, it's not necessary, and it's even a little bit worth the candle."

He looked at everyone: "Many of you, especially the junior students, have not realized what kind of special treatment you will enjoy in the next few months-the Hogwarts library is open to you, All professors will answer questions beyond your textbooks, including various advanced spells and magic theories."

"If I were you, I would definitely not miss such a good opportunity. It will be good for your future."

"But what do we learn so many esoteric things that we won't use after graduation?" a student asked.

Felix looked at the others, and they also had expressions of disapproval.He shook his head: "It seems that this is indeed a problem, so let me expand on it. When we were in school, we might all have a question——"

"If you can live a good life with just a few years of rough study, why force yourself to continue delving into those profound and obscure spells and theories?"

"This is actually a very interesting question, can anyone answer it?"

A Ravenclaw girl raised her hand playfully, "Professor, I know! I just like magic! Interested in them."

Felix smiled at her, "This kind of mentality is very good."

"Learning magic can get us prominent positions, into better companies, Gringotts, the Ministry of Magic!" said Roger Davies.

"Well, constructive speech. Other than that?"

"People will fear you, fear you, and dare not provoke you." Collins Foley said coldly.

"That makes sense...is there anything else?"

"You can do what you like," Hermione said.

"It's close, compared to my own answer," Felix said with a smile.

He glanced around, his eyes gliding over the eyes of each of them, "I can't give you the correct answer, because there is no correct and unique answer. I can only express my own understanding."

"What's the use of learning magic more deeply, including studying those obscure magic theories?"

"My opinion is that while it allows you to go farther than others on the road of magic, it also naturally gives you more choices."

"You want to study magic? Of course you can, then quietly be a scholar and understand the mysteries of magic and areas that no one has touched."

"Do you want to occupy a high position and gain power? In addition to having a keen and ingenious mind, the power of magic is also indispensable. At that time, magic was a tool at your fingertips to help you gain fame and power;"

"Or...money? It's not impossible, but I suggest that you choose the right branch of magic. Alchemy and ancient runes are very promising. If any of you are interested, you can consider joining the 'Future World' company after graduation."

Felix blinked and smiled at them.

"There's a lot more that can be said, changing appearance? Transfiguration can do it; extending life? Potion can do it; traveling the world? Seeking excitement? Exploring secrets and treasures...or just becoming an ordinary person."

"Of course, we may also fantasize—" Felix lowered his eyes, "let the world run according to your will, and some changes will occur because of you."

The students fell silent.

Felix fiddled with his wand, and said softly: "Yes, for some people, such as - Principal Dumbledore, what troubles him is never what he can do, but what he chooses to do."

"Being the Minister of Magic...and deciding which sweets to buy from Hogsmeade...maybe the latter is more of a drain on his mind."

"This shows the importance of the right to choose - to choose the life we ​​want. The most intuitive example is that every year, students get more than one recommendation letter from the professor. Obviously, these people have a natural choice Bigger."

"Let's get back to the topic and talk about something practical."

Felix raised his voice and said, "According to the latest news from the principal, this competition is different than before. It will be held in groups. Of course, the difficulty will be increased accordingly."

"Each school selects three people to form a team. After the three projects are over, the school with the highest score will win the trophy of the competition."

He looked at everyone and said, "Students in grades [-] and [-], you will form teams in a random way in the next time. In this way, you will cultivate a tacit understanding. Who may become your teammate in the game. As for the four Fifth grade students can do whatever they want, without any requirement."

As soon as the words fell, Harry, Ron and Hermione immediately leaned together.
