Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

Chapter 289 Divination of Dumbledore

 The weekend of the second week is the day when new Quidditch members are selected.

 It's just that this year is a little different from before. Not only Hufflepuff, but also the teams of the other three houses do not need to recruit new players.

 Among the four teams, there is only one new face like Malfoy, the others are old acquaintances from last year.

Kyle only watched the Quidditch pitch for five minutes before he got up and left.

It's too boring. If he has this time, he might as well discuss the magic text with Riddle.

Of course, Kyle also fulfilled the request that Riddle made before...but it was not a fairy or a Bowtruckle, but something else.

"Sorry, Tom, I was discovered by Hagrid when I went to the Forbidden Forest. He was the gamekeeper and he didn't allow me to go to the Forbidden Forest, but I found this."

Kyle put a hick in his diary.

 As the Bowtruckle's food...this thing may have something to do with magical animals.

And Riddle didn't seem to care whether he brought a country bumpkin or a bowtruckle. Ver asked with interest:

  【Is it Rubeus Hagrid? 】

 “It seems to be called by this name. Do you know him?”

  【Actually, we were still classmates, but he was expelled in the end because of a very serious mistake. 】

　　【Do you want to know what happened? I can take you to see it. 】

"In no mood!"

Kyle wrote in his diary without hesitation:

“I only care about learning now, let’s continue discussing the magic text.”

  【I mean, the reason why Rubeus Hagrid was expelled is also related to another thing, a legend circulating in Hogwarts about Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets...】

“What secret room or greenhouse is none of my business, only studying can make me happy.”

Before Riddle’s handwriting disappeared, Kyle wrote in the blank space below:

"By the way, I still have some questions about the symbol that represents "light". Is there a different order of the magic words that make up it..."

Kyle wrote a lot eloquently, until he couldn't write anymore.

Riddle was a little confused. This was the first time he encountered someone who didn't play by the rules.

That's the legend of Hogwarts...are you really not interested at all?

 But in order not to arouse suspicion, he had no choice but to give up his original plan, did not mention anything related to the secret room, and instead answered Kyle's question.

I have been chatting with Ridel for a long time. By the time of 6 pm, Kyle went to the West Tower and participated in the curse club of Professor Frievy.

 There were a lot more people here than Professor McGonagall's, there were more than twenty, but Kyle didn't meet any acquaintances.

 The content of learning here is mainly based on practical operations, which is somewhat similar to dueling.

　　also very interesting.

 …

I have to say that since joining the professors’ club, Kyle has become busier.

 Especially after entering October.

 Because Quidditch training three times a week has also begun.

 In order to take care of Kyle's time, Harris deliberately adjusted his training to days when he did not need to participate in the club.

This also meant that Kyle had a schedule every night, either going to the eighth floor, the west tower, or the Quidditch pitch, and couldn't return to the common room until curfew.

Coupled with the heavy homework, busy Kyle wants to apply for a time turner again.

 There was no other way, Professor McGonagall only allowed him not to attend class, but he still had to write homework... This was also to check his learning status.

 So, in order to squeeze out more time, Kyle took aim at Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Although Defense Against the Dark Arts is a basic course and cannot be skipped, it is still okay to do other things in class. Lockhart was reading a long passage from his book on the podium, while Kyle was in the last row holding a quill, writing something on the parchment.

 Looks like I'm taking notes.

 But as long as you get closer, you will find that the content on the parchment has nothing to do with what Lockhart said.

“The tea leaves formed the shape of an eagle, which indicated that he had a mortal enemy, and the stick under the eagle’s talons indicated that he would be attacked…”

Kanna looked at the contents on the parchment and asked in a low voice: "...Do you have a mortal enemy?"

 “Oh, not mine.”

Kyle said casually: "I asked the house elves in the kitchen to bring Professor Dumbledore a cup of tea, and he drank it."

"Are you making a prophecy for Professor Dumbledore?" Connor said subconsciously.

Perhaps her voice was too loud, which caught Lockhart's attention.

 “Miss Prince, do you have any doubts about this passage?” he asked.

 “Sorry Professor, it’s me.”

Kyle stood up first, still holding the book "Wandering with Werewolves" in his hand

“I have never understood the principle of the humanoid restoration spell you just mentioned.

 Is it a transfiguration spell? Or a special spell like All Curses End, which can remove the influence of magic. "

 “Both, kid.”

Lockhart paused slightly, and then said in a very light tone: "Although it is very simple for me to do, in fact, the restoration spell is very complicated and involves many aspects of knowledge. You may I can’t understand…”

Kyle looked at Lockhart and smiled:

 “If it’s you, there must be a way to make us understand.”

 “Sure, I can.”

“But it will take a few lessons, and I don’t think your Headmaster Dumbledore would agree with me doing this.”

Lockhart blinked, "But I'm glad you found this out. Five points for Hufflepuff..."

 Let's continue with the class, and this is what you need to consider. "

Kyle sat back down again.

 As long as you find the right method, dealing with Lockhart is quite easy.

"Thank you..." Kang Na whispered: "But weren't you reading a divination book just now? Why did it become "Wandering with Werewolves"."

 “It hasn’t changed, it’s always been divination.”

Kyle spread out the books in his hand, "I just changed their covers."

　　"I should have thought so." Connor muttered under her breath, and then continued to ask: "So you were helping Professor Dumbledore do divination just now."

 “Quite accurate, isn’t it?”

Kyle smiled, "Everyone knows that Professor Dumbledore has a mortal enemy, and this is absolutely true."

“What about the stick that represents attack...Can anyone still dare to attack Professor Dumbledore?”

 “That’s not certain.”

Kyle touched his chin thoughtfully, "Maybe it's Fawkes... Haven't you noticed that Professor Dumbledore's beard is getting shorter and shorter? That's his masterpiece."

  To a certain extent, this should be considered an attack. "

Kanna frowned and expressed doubts about Kyle's words, but she couldn't find any reason to refute it for a while.
