A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 46 Guest Psychiatrist
With the fermentation of the Creevey incident, the little wizards of Hogwarts showed an extremely unreliable side. They exchanged amulets, exorcisms and other things to protect themselves without telling the teacher.

During this time, the practice quickly spread across the school, and Neville Longbottom bought a large, stinking onion, a pointed amethyst, and a rotting salamander tail.

It turns out the other Gryffindor boys tell him that he's not actually in danger: he's pure-blooded, so he won't be attacked.

"They started with Filch," said Neville, his round face full of terror. "Everyone knows I'm pretty much a Squib."

The professors had to harp on in class, repeating that these things were completely useless.Among them, Felix has won the fans of many young wizards with his good reputation and gentle attitude.

There are even many lower-grade students who "come here especially" and ask for psychological guidance.

"Professor, I, can I talk to you?" A curly-haired Hufflepuff boy stopped him as he was patrolling the hallway.

"Of course." Felix sighed inwardly, the fourth one this week, tired of being famous.

When the two came to a pillar, the little wizard seemed a bit cautious, but Felix had a very high "favorite rate" among the young wizards, which made him calm down quickly.

"Professor, I have encountered some difficulties." Felix motioned him to continue, "My name is Justin Finch, and I come from a Muggle family..."

Felix understood.

"...when I got the offer, I wasn't sure if I wanted to come to Hogwarts, but, well, you know, I was going to Eton, which is where my father graduated from."

Felix agreed, "I've heard of the school. It's pretty well known in the Muggle world."

"Yes, that's right." Justin became more interested, "But I was more curious about magic, and I persuaded them to let me come to Hogwarts to study. At that time, Professor McGonagall's performance scared them."

Felix nodded. Hogwarts has always had the habit of visiting new students from Muggle families.

But it must be interesting to think of the expression on the Muggle's face when he saw magic for the first time under the materialistic view.

Justin continued: "A lot has happened this year, it's been a tough time...everyone is panicking, and a lot of people are writing letters home."

"Your parents are also worried about you, right? Did they suspend your studies?" Felix asked.

"No, no, professor," Justin said quickly, "I didn't tell my family, I believe Hogwarts will continue, professor, I like magic! I, I'm just a little scared, there are many rumors... …Potter, Harry Potter, he is the heir of Slytherin!"

"Most of the rumors are unreliable." Felix said calmly, "Do you believe this theory?"

"I'm not sure either, from logic, um, professor, you know the word logic, right? Great, from logic, they just appeared in the wrong place, but I don't know much about magic..."

"Don't worry, it's not him. I can assure you that the professors have enough insight to distinguish facts from rumors."

Justin was visibly relieved.

"Do you have any other questions?"

"Also, Professor, I heard you were Muggle-born too? Sorted into Slytherin?"

"Yes."

"Then you must have been embarrassed by many people, right? You paid them back severely?"

"Ah, I can barely say that."

Justin's expression became excited, "Professor, many young wizards, especially those born in Muggle families, adore you very much, you are their idol!"

? ?
Now, am I becoming the idol of commoner wizards?

"Professor, everyone wants to be as brave as you..."

Felix was still a little surprised after seeing off this little wizard who was shy at first and then quickly turned to chatter.After a while, he smiled lightly, this feeling... not bad.

The time came to December, and with the tireless efforts of the professors, the little wizards finally abandoned the unreliable amulets and turned to more practical gadgets, such as the looking glass that can detect potential dangers in advance.

It is popular among girls to carry a small mirror with them and take a picture with the mirror at every corner, but this practice was quickly abandoned, and not many people can persist.

The devil vine that Felix had raised for a long time also thrived and was ready for use.

There are also branches of the Whomping Willow. After more than a month of hard work and magic power, every inch of it is soaked with Felix's own magic power, which makes its surface radiant and still maintains enough vitality.

Felix tried the effect, and he pulled out his wand, "Get smaller quickly!" The seven or eight-meter-long branch shrank rapidly, turning into a long snake in the blink of an eye.

"It's still a bit rough."

He kept casting spells, and the branches became smaller and smaller, but the process became more and more difficult. Fortunately, the branches were soaked in his magic power and did not repel him. With the help of a few techniques from ancient books, he successfully turned it into a A green, flexible string.

Without taking a break, he quickly carved dense runes on the surface to maintain the magic effect.

"Looks pretty good!"

But then, he got into trouble.

According to his idea, he will rely on whooping willow string as the skeleton, and weave unicorn hair into it to form something like a small pocket.

But he's stuck at the first step, how to weave them together in the right way?
"I know this, my mother and I have learned how to knit sweaters!"

In the end, it was his assistant who provided help. Hermione provided seven knitting schemes in a row, which impressed Felix.

After three days of busy work, the little witch finished her work excellently, and even wove a small beaded bag for herself with the leftover scraps after getting permission from Professor Haipu.

Beads were also readily available, made by Hermione from the chestnut blocks used to practice runes.

The reason why beads are used for embellishment is because the original materials were insufficient, and she had to make a compromise.

The final semi-finished products are an exquisite men's wallet for Felix and a beaded pouch for Hermione.

"The rest of the work is to engrave the rune circuit, let the devil's net move, and mistakenly think that it is still thriving... and debugging, it will take about a week or two."

"When you are in danger, you can use magic power to inspire the devil vine to attack."

"Of course," Felix explained, "your beaded pouch isn't made of good enough material to hold too many sprigs of devil's vine."

"That's enough for me." Hermione said happily, "Professor, can I complete the rune construction myself?"

"You can't do this yet, but you can help me."

……

On Thursday afternoon, a small crowd gathered around the bulletin board, reading a piece of parchment that had just been stapled up.

The top few words shine brightly, constantly attracting attention.That is--

Dueling Club.
