A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 590 Respective Difficulties and Gains
"I don't remember an invitation being sent out, and the activities of the Rune Club have been suspended because—" Felix looked at them.Luna nodded and said, "Participate in the trial." "Yeah, that's why," he said.

"I saw the photos in the newspaper—Professor Dumbledore, Ms. Burns and you." Luna said happily: "Papa said in "The Quibbler" that you are the three most powerful people in the wizarding world. "

"I also saw that article, it's very interesting." Felix said with a straight face: "Especially the part where we imagined us joining forces to fight against the magic world."

He turned his head and looked at the others—they looked at each other, their eyes averted, and they hesitated to speak.

"Okay, come and sit." He conjured up some soft chairs with magic. At this time, Fred and George on the desk also stopped. They ran out of the range of the spell and stood on the edge of the desk, staring Staring intently, while waving his arms to attract attention, "Hey, come on - we can't get down by ourselves!"

"Let me do it!" Ron yelled, as if he was afraid of being robbed by others, and he looked at Felix after he finished speaking, "Um—is it okay?"

Before Felix nodded his head completely, he rushed to the desk, bent down to look at his two brothers, and said in a gloating tone: "Look what I found, the flower fairy who lost her wings? I But I've never seen such a strong flower fairy..."

"Come on, you brats." He held out his hand with a big smile.

Fred and George took a step back subconsciously, they didn't have the upper hand right now.But compromise is impossible. Fred raised his head and stared at Ron's face carefully, "From this angle, your face looks like a disaster scene, full of bumps—"

"That's freckles! You two have them too!" Ron said angrily. He grabbed his two brothers and shook them in his hands. "I haven't settled with you yet, that boxing telescope—"

He gave them a warning look, led them to the sofa in the office, threw them on the sofa cushions, and sat down.Fred and George screamed away from Ron's slowly sitting body.The two climbed up and down, and finally leaned on the armrest of the sofa, patting their chests with lingering fear.

"Zhenxuan, I was almost murdered by my brother—"

"It's still the way of being crushed to death with my butt. To be honest, I will die with regret."

Harry squinted at the two, who seemed to be having a good time.

"So——" Felix watched the interaction between relatives with great interest, and the others suppressed their laughter, and then he sat on the single sofa and asked: "What kind of coincidence brought you together Together? Potter?"

"Uh, Professor, Colin saw—saw—" Harry snapped, staring at Felix's pocket, and at the twins still fighting on the table, not knowing how to describe it.

Could it be said that Colin Creevey saw the professor bouncing up the stairs while pushing Fred back from his pocket?That was too weird.

"I see what you mean, all three of you have this purpose?" Felix looked at Harry, Ron and Hermione, the three nodded in unison, and Felix turned to the others.They chattered away.

"I have some learning problems," Cedric said, taking out a notebook from his pocket. "I tried to imitate the rune booklet and write something similar, but there was always something vague about it."

"Qiu came here with me." He pointed to Qiu Zhang who was sitting quietly beside him.

Felix nodded approvingly, then looked away slightly.

"I have nothing to do, just drop by to have a look." Draco said slowly.

"I have something to ask you, some questions about the course..." Felix said vaguely, "I'll leave it later."

Draco nodded hesitantly.

When it was the turn of the Greengrass sisters, Daphne hesitated to speak, but her sister pointed at Draco generously, "We followed him, he has been acting alone and secretive lately, I don't know do what."

Draco shot her a hard look.

These words caught Harry's attention. He stared at Draco's face, as if he wanted to see something. He thought of the recent rumors about "Malfoy's master turning against the Death Eaters", and guessed that it was a rumor Malfoy should be affected quite a bit.

With Neville, Luna and Ginny remaining, Felix turned to Neville.

"I, uh," Neville opened his mouth nervously. It seemed that there were so many people around who were embarrassed, making Felix think he was going to talk about something difficult to talk about, so he tentatively said, "We can talk about it alone. talk--"

"No, no need," Neville said, "I want to ask—" He paused, "Knowledge of Potions."

"Potions?" Felix asked in surprise.

Even the others looked at Neville strangely, which made Neville's face more rosy, he swallowed, and said: "The school distributes brochures of various occupations during the holidays, I saw The Auror flyer requires applicants to have at least five NEWTs certificates, with no less than 'good' in each subject—"

Harry and Ron inhaled lightly. They had identified the Auror long ago, but they just thought it would be good to wait for the school to talk to Professor McGonagall and listen to her advice.

"—and a series of rigorous character and intelligence tests prepared by the Auror Office."

When Neville had finished speaking, Harry and Ron's faces turned pale, as pale as Draco seemed to be.

"Oh, I understand." Felix smiled, "You learned that you must obtain a certificate in Potions to apply for the Auror exam, and you are worried that you will not meet the requirements, and you don't know how to deal with it..." Neville nodded head.

"It's no wonder that many students who want to apply for the Auror exam are stuck at the level of potions. Who told Professor Snape's improvement class to only accept students who are outstanding in the OWLs exam." Felix said with half emotion.

"Need a Potions certificate?" Harry asked blankly.

"Still getting an excellent?" Ron exclaimed in despair.

The faces of the two were pale at this time - in their minds, getting an 'excellent' in the potions test was simply a fantasy.

Harry felt his heart shatter into ice along with his dream of being an Auror.

"If you want to be an excellent Auror, you must at least understand how to detoxify, right?" Felix said, explaining the two people's problems. "Of course, the actual situation is much more complicated."

He thought about it, and said to Neville: "If you just want to improve your grades, you can get high scores." He looked at Neville uncertainly, and Neville nodded repeatedly. He smiled and said, "There is still a way." Yes, we'll wait and see."

"Professor?" Harry asked urgently, "Can we stay and listen?"

"Yeah, Professor, we think the same as Neville," Ron said hastily, "as long as we can get high grades."

"Professor Snape won't be happy," Felix shook his head, he seemed to think of something, and looked very happy. "However, he has no reason to refuse some kind of trickery. Unless he wants to deny himself..." His last sentence was inaudible.

Felix's eyes alternated between Luna and Ginny, and finally set his sights on Ginny.This time he guessed wrong, and Ginny pushed Luna away, who was staring straight at Fred and George. "Oh," Luna came to her senses, "I have something to tell you." She said seriously.

"About what?" Felix asked.

"Have you read "The Tales of Beedle the Poet"?" Luna said, her eyes suddenly became very bright, not like the usual daze. "There's a 'Tale of the Three Brothers' in it, which mentions Reaper and his three—"

Harry, Ron and Hermione exchanged cautious glances.

"I know what you're going to say." Felix interrupted her. Luna blinked, a little confused, but she didn't ask any further, but looked at him expectantly, which made Felix very headache .

Trouble seemed to be coming together, and he didn't expect Luna to bring up the story.How did she know?
"The Elder Wand rumors are wrong, I think I've proved it," said Felix curtly.At the cost of a dozen lives, and an open battle with Voldemort, all shadowy ambitions were wiped out.

Of course, it didn't disappear all at once. Felix would take out the Marauder's Map and look for it when he was free in those few months, exchanging those suspicious people for bounties.

"I'm talking about another one," Luna said softly, "the resurrection stone."

Felix frowned.

"Miss Lovegood—"

"I did a divination with Firenze," Luna said quickly while looking at him. "He said that from the results, what I desire seems to be very close—so close that I passed by."

Felix was silent for a moment, what?Resurrection stone?Did she mean the resurrection stone was in the school?
It can't be in one of her roommate's schoolbags, right?

And he guessed that Firenze's meaning of "passing by" might be different from Luna's understanding...

"Okay," he said, "you guys really surprised me a lot." He stood up and looked around. "There are a lot of problems, let's solve them one by one. It happens that I also need your help. Luna, come here first."

He and Luna walked to the other side of the office and chatted quietly.

The result of the discussion made him a little surprised. It was the first time he heard about the Deathly Hallows. In this legend, the three creations of the god of death mentioned in fairy tales were pinched together and regarded as a whole.And it has a special meaning-that is, mastering three holy artifacts can become the master of the god of death.

All Felix knew was that the Elder Wand was real and was currently held by Dumbledore.

"Have you ever thought that this is just a legend similar to a proverb? Even if they really exist, they may be just three powerful magic items, which were forcibly linked together by future generations?"

But Luna gave a realistic basis.

"The Elder Wand." Luna drew a vertical line across his hand. "Resurrection Stone." She added another circle under the vertical line. "Invisibility cloak." She finally drew a triangle outside the vertical line and the circle, wrapping the former two, forming a complete and delicate pattern.

Felix stared at his hand, which seemed to be another person's sign, if he was not mistaken?
Like his Ouroboros, once synonymous with himself.

"Grindelwald?" he asked softly.

"You know him too?" Luna asked curiously, "Papa said that this symbol is indeed misunderstood by many people, but the truth is that this symbol does not belong to him, Grindelwald just borrowed it, and its real creator is Peverell Three Brothers."

"Peverell... three brothers? Three brothers?"

"Antioch, Cadmus, and Ignotus, they are the original owners of the sacred artifact." Luna said with certainty, but Felix estimated that she was just paraphrasing her father's words, "Ig That symbol still remains on Nottus' tombstone, in Godric's Hollow. Papa took me to see it. It's the coat of arms of House Peverell."

Felix lowered his head and seemed to be talking to himself.

"So, people who know this symbol should also know the meaning behind the symbol?"

On the other side, the few people sitting on the sofa couldn't help looking at the professor and Luna repeatedly. They talked for a long time, but they couldn't hear clearly because they were too far away, which might be the reason for the spell. "The professor's attitude is really kind." Qiu Zhang said, obviously, she took this matter as a responsible professor pointing out a little girl whose mind was full of fantasies.

"But who is Firenze?" she asked.

"A centaur," said Harry.

"So she didn't imagine it?" Qiu Zhang said very interestedly, she looked at Luna in the distance, thoughtful: "I'm two grades away from her, but I've heard of her Nickname - crazy girl, do you know?"

"She's not crazy," said Ginny coldly, "it's just a little—"

"Weird." Ron nodded in agreement.Ginny glared at him.

"Oh," Qiu Zhang said apologetically, "are you friends?"

At this time, Luna had bounced back, her fluffy hair falling down one by one. "How was the chat?" Ginny asked. She hoped that her friend would dispel unrealistic fantasies, such as the resurrection of the dead... This is too far-fetched.

"The professor promised to keep an eye on it for me, and if he finds it, he can lend it to me." She said happily.

"Diggory—" Felix called from the other end, and Cedric stood up and walked over with his notes.Felix flipped through it roughly, went through it quickly in his mind, and said to him: "It's already very decent, and there are many details that I haven't considered. I can see that you have put a lot of effort into it."

Cedric smiled shyly.

"Should you also contribute to the magazine "New Explanation of Magic Text"?"

Cedric nodded.

"It has been sent."

"I will keep this note first, I need to take a closer look, and then we will discuss..."

Then Felix beckoned to Draco, who came reluctantly.

"Tell me, what do you think?" Felix asked, looking in the direction of the sofa, where Sister Greengrass was looking. "Your classmates can see that you are not normal recently. I told you before that you can come to me if you have anything you can't think of."

"They're nosy," Draco said wearily. "Especially the little one, who blamed me for ruining her ghost food."

Felix casually asked a few words about what happened, probably Astoria got some ghost food from somewhere.This thing is actually quite rare and difficult to preserve. It is only available in classroom [-], so he gave Varen some——

He turned his head and stared at Warren, well, he seemed to know where Astoria got the ghost food.

In the subsequent plot, Astoria took it out to show off, but Draco inadvertently shattered it. "I lost the game and didn't notice her jumping out at all." Draco defended himself.

"Then what happened recently?"

A blush spread across Draco's face.Felix was very experienced in this, "I promise not to tell." So Draco took out an exquisitely shaped, gorgeous and complicated coat of arms from his pocket.

When Felix saw the 'M' letter on it, he roughly guessed it.

"The crest of House Malfoy?"

Draco nodded, "It's in the letter from my mother." Felix knew in his heart that he was the one who helped deliver the letter.

"So they dumped the responsibility on you?" Felix asked with a smile, "Is there any gain?"

"A little bit," Draco stammered, looking him over carefully, "Professor, are you going to forcibly break the secrecy laws after the war?"

Felix scratched his head a little, "You all gave me so many surprises today - who told you?" Isn't this a rumor, and he himself mocked Grindelwald with this incident.

"Isn't it?" Draco looked very disappointed. Seeing the professor raised his eyebrows, he hurriedly said, "I guessed it myself. Professor, I think you must have heard my grandfather Abraxas Malfoy's Name?" He asked expectantly.

"I heard something."

"He passed away when I was young, and I remembered his words recently. He said," Draco swallowed, "everyone has their own place, the difference is that the position of the strong is not called a position, but mission."

"Oh?" Felix said vaguely.

"I thought, if you have this plan, I can help." Draco hesitated and said, "You told me before that my wand is suitable for medical magic, plus employment counseling after school starts... I've been looking up information on this recently."

Felix has only one thought right now, Lucius can retire as soon as possible.

It turns out that Draco didn't want to be a healer, but had the idea of ​​a 'Muggle-Wizard joint hospital', and while his idea wasn't perfect, it was enough to surprise Felix.

"Your thinking... is a bit ahead of schedule, and I can't give you a clear answer. After all, it's hard to say what will happen in the future, but you can indeed work hard in this direction. According to your thinking, at least you must first become an excellent therapist. You have a lot to learn."

Draco returned to the sofa and sat down. Neville, Harry and Ron came over. Hermione thought for a while and followed.

The three boys looked at him eagerly, eager for the 'way to get a high score' he said. As for Hermione, she strongly disliked playing tricks, but in order to understand the situation, she came here anyway.

'I'm looking for information. ' Hermione told herself.

Felix didn't talk nonsense, let them wait here for a while, and took out a set of potions textbooks from the bedroom.

He stroked the cover affectionately: "They helped me a lot."

"Is this your potions book at school?" Harry guessed.

"Ah, how do you say it? You don't think I could afford new textbooks when I was in school, did you?" Felix said, "At that time, the school's funding fund was very limited and we had to be careful. I could only buy second-hand books and old robes. But there is a saying, 'If you think a little more about everything, you will be better than you are now.'”

"It didn't take me long to find out that the school had lockers for used textbooks and it took me a while to pick out the best condition ones - I couldn't believe how close some were to pristine books with just one name on them."

Harry lowered his head and stared at the set of textbooks in the professor's hand. It was tattered and the corners were flying, as if he had suffered horrific abuse.

"...not including the Potions textbook. I have carefully selected this set of books, and you will find that its beauty is not in its appearance."
