The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

"Avada Kedavra!"

In the Room of Requirement, which was lined with targets, the pale-faced Link waved his wand fiercely.

A green light suddenly appeared.

In an instant, a perfect arc was drawn from the air and shattered all the targets along the way.

After successfully releasing the Death Curse, Link's face did not look happy, but instead became weaker.

He turned his head and counted the number of smashed targets, then nodded and slumped down on the sofa.

The three unforgivable curses are actually not very complicated and difficult to learn.

Especially the Death Curse and the Cruciatus Curse.

The trick of the Death Curse is that you must have the strongest and most sincere killing intention towards the target of the spell in order to force your own magic power to operate and turn it into that ominous green light that is heart-stopping.

The more murderous you are, the more powerful the life-killing curse you release will be.

In the same way, the release of the Cruciatus Curse also requires the caster to maintain hatred and anger towards the target, or simply want to torture the target.

Therefore, for Link, who has mastered self-hypnosis skills through learning Occlumency, the Death Curse and Cruciatus Curse are particularly simple.

In fact, the reason why these two curses are listed as unforgivable curses is because they are easy to learn and have powerful and vicious effects.

So in less than two months, Link had completely mastered the Cruciatus Curse and the Death Curse, and raised their levels to lv2.

This skill level is not really high, but it is enough for Link to use in normal combat.

As for the soul-stealing curse and the fierce fire, it's different.

Their complexity is far beyond that of the Death Curse.

Just like the fierce fire, to release it not only requires maintaining the malice in the heart, but also actively transforming the power of the curse into flames.

Therefore, even though Link has tried his best to understand and learn in the past two months, without anyone's words and deeds to teach him, Link still has not been able to completely master these two magic spells and turn them into skills on the system panel.

After truly in-depth study of black magic, Link understood why Mrs. Foley had been reluctant to hand over "Advanced Black Magic Revealed" to him, and why she was reluctant to let Link learn the three unforgivable curses. .

The magic in this world is actually a truly idealistic thing.

The release of any magic requires the cooperation of the caster's inner emotions at that time.

For example, the Patronus Spell requires the positive emotions in the caster's heart as the root force.

Another example is that the Killing Curse requires you to have a sincere intention to kill.

Compared with the power of inner emotions, the magic power that most wizards value most is actually not that important.

The reason why black magic is called black magic is that the release of black magic generally requires the caster to activate the darkest and cruelest malice deep in his heart.

Even with the ability to self-hypnotize and isolate the mind.

But once the evil thoughts in the heart are aroused too frequently, the person will inevitably be affected and become more and more evil and wanton.

Many dark wizards have proven this with their own examples.

Many of those Death Eaters who do all kinds of evil were not evil from the beginning.

The reason why they finally appeared in front of people with such a terrifying goal was that, in addition to Voldemort's persecution and temptation, releasing too much black magic and corroding their souls was also a very important reason.

Therefore, it becomes understandable that Mrs. Foley wants to prevent Link from being exposed to dark magic.

This kind-hearted mother doesn't want her child to fall into evil ways, especially when there is a monster hidden deep in Link's heart.

this point is very important!

Link has felt it this time.

Mike is actually a split personality from the original owner that carries pain and other negative emotions. All the negative emotions generated by Link's release of black magic will be borne by Mike.

The advantage he brings to Link is that Link himself will never be affected by the mind-eroding effects of releasing black magic.

But as a side effect, Mike, carrying negative emotions, will become more and more powerful.

This forces Link to use time and mental energy to restore Mike to his original state every time after using black magic, and to resolve those negative emotions.

Otherwise, Mike will get stronger endlessly and eventually break through the prison of the heart.

This is why Link is so weak now, and why it took him two months to level up the Death Curse and Cruciatus Curse to level 2.

Compared to others, although he has no side effects when releasing black magic, the amount of mental energy and time he consumes is also terrifying!

"call!"

After taking a long breath, Link, who felt he was almost rested, got up from the sofa and walked outside.

The second project will start soon, and he doesn't want to continue working on the three unforgivable curses in the short term.

Otherwise, he would really have no strength to swim by then.

Going down the rare quiet stairs, Link soon returned to the dormitory, and naturally found the steaming delicacies neatly placed on his bedside table.

This is naturally the work of the house elves.

Ever since Link began to devote himself to the study of dark magic two months ago, the house elves have been helping Link open the stove and deliver food.

The most important thing is that they did this voluntarily.

They simply felt sorry for Link, an excellent Hufflepuff, who missed meal time because he was obsessed with studying.

Therefore, even Professor Sprout, who strictly prohibited students from using house elves, said nothing.

Link didn't care whether there were other house elves hiding in his dormitory, he just clasped his hands together and said thank you before burying his head in eating.

I didn’t even tidy up after eating. I took a nap after taking a shower.

This period of study made him very tired.

And when he woke up on time before going to class in the afternoon, the messy dinner plate on the bedside table was indeed gone.

Instead, there was a basin of washed grapes.

This is Link's favorite fruit.

On weekdays, once you start eating it, you won’t stop even if your teeth are sore.

Unfortunately, two uninvited guests came to Link's room today. Thanks to their efforts, there was not much left in the pot of grapes.

"You should leave a few for me."

Looking at the two thieves who not only refused to run when their master woke up, but even winked at him while eating grapes, Link said helplessly.

John, one of the thieves, seemed a little embarrassed when he heard this and put down the grapes he was holding in embarrassment.

But the other thief, Cedric, was so kind.

He was not polite to Link at all and put all the remaining grapes in the basin into a clean bag, then took Link's arm and dragged him out of bed.

"You are finally awake. If you don't wake up, I will wake you up with clear spring water."

Cedric helped Link tidy up his robe that was a little messy due to his nap, and finally stuffed the bag of grapes into Link's arms, "Today is Hagrid's first session after he came back. Class, let’s go quickly! As for the grapes, you can keep them for class.”

After saying that, he didn't care whether Link agreed or not, he pulled Link and John and ran outside.

February at Hogwarts is the coldest time of the year.

Continuous snowflakes have been floating in the sky for almost more than a month, which directly caused the entire Hogwarts to not only be covered with a layer of silver, but also the snow on the ground was several centimeters thicker.

Link, who was dazed along the way, woke up instantly when he was blown by the cold wind carrying snow foam outside.

"I'm really impressed by you!"

Link grumbled and cast a layer of thermal and moisture-proof spells on himself and John, which barely blocked the razor-sharp cold wind outside.

John and Cedric did not refute Link's complaint. They just giggled at Link and then quickened their pace.

Some time ago, due to pressure from public opinion, Hagrid was eventually temporarily dismissed from his position as Professor of Care of Magical Creatures.

It was not until the recent lull in the relevant public opinion that he was reinstated.

During this period, Cedric and the others had been working together with Gryffindor to campaign for Hagrid.

So now that Hagrid has returned, they naturally take part of the credit.

That's why they seem so excited and impatient.

Link couldn't resist them, so he could only sigh and quicken his pace.

The three of them stepped on the snow and arrived at the black lake.

Although there is no class yet, many people have gathered here, including Hagrid himself.

In addition, Hagrid was holding a little unicorn in his hand. This beautiful creature exuding divine brilliance was even more adorable and charming when it was a baby. It was instantly loved by all the girls, and it was surrounded by water. From time to time, people in the crowd would There would be a scream or two of joy.

Link guessed that it was probably because someone touched the unicorn with his own hands.

As for the boys, they could only watch the excitement from a distance.

Although being macho men, they also like unicorns very much.

But unfortunately, the unicorn only wants to be in contact with pure and beautiful girls, and is not willing to be touched by stinky men.

Today their Care of Magical Creatures lesson was with Slytherin.

So Link spotted Emily in the crowd from a long distance away.

She wore a furry hat with red and white patterns on her head, and a plush ball hung from the top of the hat, which swayed with her movements.

The unicorn cub, which was indifferent to others, became as obedient as a cat in her hands, allowing Emily to manipulate it into any shape.

This made many people nearby cast envious glances.

But Emily didn't care, all her attention was on the little unicorn.

Judging from her slightly enlarged mouth, the smile at the corners of her eyes, and her slightly red cheeks, she really likes unicorns.

Unfortunately.

She soon spotted Link trotting towards her.

This startled her and she immediately ran away from the crowd, leaving only the little unicorn who was thrown into the snow with a confused look on her face.

"She's still angry with you." John said with a wicked smile, "I guess you must have given Fleur to that, otherwise Emily would never be so angry."

Hearing this, Link just shrugged helplessly, without admitting or denying, but his eyes were still focused on the little unicorn who was once again held in the arms of another girl.

Conducting a Care of Magical Creatures class with the theme of unicorns was actually the idea of ​​Hagrid's substitute teacher during his suspension, Professor Graplan.

Unlike Hagrid, Professor Grapeland is a true scholar of magical animals. Her arrival immediately freed the students from the nightmare of raising snails and plunged into another dream of unicorns.

At the same time, her arrival also made many students really realize that Hagrid might have really used Dumbledore's back door to become a professor.

Otherwise, why could such a good teacher as Professor Graplan fail to become their professor?

As soon as this statement reached Hagrid's ears, Hagrid, who was already unhappy, was disappointed for several days.

Therefore, he learned from the painful experience and the first thing he did after returning was to imitate Professor Graplan's teaching method.

So far, it looks good.

Link was happy about this too.

Because at least Hagrid should be able to learn some lessons from this incident, and at least he shouldn't continue to let everyone raise such illegal and dangerous creatures as blow-tailed snails.

"Hey! Cedric! John! Link! You're finally here!"

At this moment, Hagrid finally discovered Link and others.

He immediately abandoned the students who were chattering around him and wanted him to continue catching more unicorns. He laughed and ran in front of a few people, and hugged all three of Link in a bear hug. In my arms.

"Hahaha! Thank you so much!"

Hagrid laughed and kept spinning the three of them in circles.

Although Hagrid looks sloppy, he is actually not dirty at all and has no smell.

The only problem was that Hagrid was too strong. Link felt like his lunch was being squeezed out of his arms.

Finally, he used a lot of force on Hagrid's arm to loosen it, and then he was able to release the restraint.

"Damn it, are you trying to kill us?"

Before Link could speak first, John rubbed his chest and cursed first.

He was in the worst situation just now, being caught between Link and Cedric.

And Hagrid was worthy of inheriting half of the giant bloodline, with amazing magic resistance. He was freed from Link's slack strength in just a moment, scratching his head and apologizing continuously.

The three of them took turns scolding Hagrid, and then one of them kicked him to calm down.

After this activity, Link felt a little tired.

Said with a smile:

"Hagrid, how are you going to teach this class?"

"Well..." Hagrid turned around and looked at the students who were huddled around the unicorn and said, "This is my first class back. Since everyone likes unicorns so much, I will let everyone be free today. Activity, let’s get close to the unicorns.”

As soon as these words came out, John and Cedric became dissatisfied again.

In their opinion, Hagrid should take advantage of this opportunity to regroup and bring back some beasts for them to play with.

There's nothing interesting about unicorns.

But Link didn't think so.

Hearing this, he yawned and said:

"In that case, I'm going to take a break first. Call me after class."

After saying that, Link walked towards the hunting ground without thinking. Cedric frowned and wanted to stop Link from skipping class, but before he could say anything, Hagrid stopped him.

In Hagrid's opinion, an outstanding person like Link doesn't need to go to class at all. It's more serious to have a good sleep and rest.
