Hogwarts Scholar System

After tasting the sweets with Hermione's family, they had dinner together.Afterwards, Hermione took Maple to the guest room prepared for him.However, Hermione did not go back to her room. Instead, she brought a lot of books and discussed her homework with Maple.

It seemed that after living with Hermione, even if Maple didn't read the book herself, Hermione would take her through the course.

"It would be great if I could practice spells at home. I wonder if my magic level will drop after wasting a vacation?" After chatting with Maple for several hours about her studies, Hermione was still not satisfied.Although she hadn't received the book list for next year yet, after Hermione spent a few days reviewing all the knowledge in the first grade, she bought a more advanced textbook through mail order at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore to preview.It was undoubtedly hard for Hermione to see new spells in the book but could only deduce them in her mind instead of practicing them with her wand.In her wild thoughts, Hermione also began to feel inexplicably worried about the spell she had mastered before.

"Okay, let's talk about this issue tomorrow, okay? It's already very late now. Hermione, I think you're not old enough to stay up late now, so it's time to go to bed!" Maple said.

"Well, good night, Maple!"

"Good night, Hermione!"

It was obvious that Hermione was in high spirits tonight, and she had a good mood on her face when she left.Although I could read books to pass the time before, books cannot represent close friends after all.

The next day, Mr. and Mrs. Granger checked each other's teeth and found that there was nothing serious, but they couldn't see any change just once. So when they went to work, they took a small part from each of several candies and prepared them. Go to the laboratory to test their composition.

After the Grangers left and Hermione came to see Maple again, Maple gave her a gift.

"Why are you giving me a wand? I already have one of my own!" Hermione said in confusion.

"This is an adult's wand, which means there are no traces on it!" Maple said.

"Traces?" Hermione always has a strong desire to explore things she doesn't know.

"You don't expect that just by sending a note in the school to make the students be obedient, do you?" Maple said, "I asked, it is said that the Ministry of Magic uses traces to monitor whether underage wizards use magic, and Once the wizard reaches the age of 17, the trace will disappear."

"But we have never had any contact with Ministry of Magic personnel. How did the traces be installed on us? I think it was probably on our wands!"

"Really? If so, that would be great. I can use it to practice magic!" Hermione said happily, but then she frowned and asked, "How did you get this wand?" ?”

"I don't want to lie to you, so I'll ask this question later, okay?" Maple said.

"Is this related to the trouble you're in?" Hermione asked.

"Yes."

This wand was obtained by Maple from the three dark wizards who attacked him for the first time. They were the ones who got into trouble halfway but ran into trouble when Maple was solving the problem, so it can only be said that they are, It's all trouble that happens in Knockturn Alley anyway.

"Are you really sure the trace is on the wand?" Hermione said still somewhat doubtfully.

"Clean it up!" Seeing that Hermione still didn't believe her idea, Maple immediately picked up the missing wand and recited a cleaning spell.

"You are crazy. What if the Ministry of Magic finds out and fires you?" Hermione was startled by Maple and lectured angrily.

"Don't worry, there are so many underage wizards. The school just sent out a notice but didn't tell us about the existence of Zongsi. I think there will always be young wizards who can't help but release magic once, so the first time is probably a warning, not Directly expelled." Maple said without any worry.

"Then you can't either" Hermione's mouth closed as an owl flew into her home.

"Maple, what's going on?" Hermione was stunned at first, and then turned into an angry goose and shouted at Maple.

Because the letter on the owl was actually for her, she opened the letter and saw that it read——

Miss Granger: We have received reports that you used a cleaning charm at your residence at nine twelve tonight.

You know, underage wizards are not allowed to use magic outside of school. If you engage in such behavior again, you may be expelled from the school. (Act for the Reasonable Restraint of Minor Witches, [-], Section [-])

Please also remember that according to Section 13 of the International Confederation of Wizards' Statute of Secrecy, any magical activity that may attract the attention of non-magical members (Muggles) is a serious offense.

Have a great summer!

"It's too much. They didn't even come over to check, and they just made a hasty judgment like that. This is dereliction of duty!" Maple said angrily, and then he immediately shrank when he saw Hermione's eyes like a fire-breathing dragon.

When Hermione was still that arrogant little witch, Maple didn't care at all about her anger. But after her personality changed, for some reason, Maple couldn't help but feel angry at herself again. The ground is a little lower.

"Wait, why didn't you receive a warning letter?" Hermione was angry for a while, and only noticed this when she calmed down.

"I think it's probably because there are no traces on my wand. My wand is an ancient work of the Ollivander family hundreds of years ago!" Maple said, "Maybe there was no such thing as traces at that time!"

"But even though I've been warned, it's still worth it to know about Trace Silk's flaws." Seeing Hermione's displeased look, Maple immediately said: "Didn't I owe you a condition before? I'll add another condition now. , as long as it doesn’t violate moral laws, or let me slip under someone’s crotch, which will shame my noble personality, no matter what you ask me to do, whatever I can do, I will be there at your call, how about it?”

"One is too few, two!"

"Deal!" Maple said, and then felt something was wrong.He inexplicably owed Hermione three conditions. This plot was inexplicably familiar!But why did I feel like I was in a daze just now? I agreed so happily!

Now that she had a total of three opportunities to take advantage of Maple, Hermione stopped being angry for a moment, and then began to think about the flaws of trace silk that Maple said: "Trace silk can detect whether underage wizards have cast spells, but it cannot detect them." It's not the caster. It was obviously you who cast the spell, but because there was no trace on you, the Ministry of Magic concluded that it was me."

"Obviously the trace silk has a certain range. As long as you put your wand here and we leave the monitoring range of the trace silk above it, we can cast spells at will." Maple also said.

"You still think that the trace is on the wand, what if you are wrong?"

"What if," Maple then thought, if she guessed wrong, Hermione would have to take the blame for her mistake again.I have been warned once, and if I do it again, I will be fired!Thinking of such serious consequences, Maple was not sure.

"But there are indeed no traces on my body, so how do you explain it?" Maple has performed magic many times outside of school before, but nothing happened.

Because of this, Maple was so sure that the trace was on the wand.But he seemed to have forgotten one detail about the world, that is, in the seventh year, when Moody and the others took Harry away from home, they did not let Harry change his wand to an adult's to avoid the Ministry of Magic's tracking of Traces. .If this method is feasible, there is no way Mad Eye Moody would have thought of it.

"Besides the wand, what else is different between us?" Hermione thought, then her eyes lit up, "The Obscurus!"

There is a similar example. Dumbledore's sister Ariana was also an Obscurus, not a Squib, but no one knew about her death. At that time, the International Statute of Secrecy had already been introduced, and Ariana could also be regarded as a Statute of Secrecy. of victims.

The magical world obviously does not have a satellite signal that can cover a whole country, and it would be too laborious to release a magical magnetic field that covers an entire country.

But after every wizard shows off his magical talent for the first time, Hogwarts always has a way to detect it, and the Ministry of Magic should also be aware of it.If the wizarding world wants to add a new account, it is impossible for Hogwarts, the school, to know about it, but the Ministry of Magic, the official organization, does not know about it.

This is probably the first magic wave released by the wizard after awakening. It is a bit special and can be easily detected and tracked. After tracking the magic signal, specialized Ministry of Magic personnel will release a tracking spell registration number on the wizard.

Muggle-born wizards can cast Trace Silk directly without the other party's consent, but when a member of the wizarding family shows magical talent, the cooperation of the other party's parents is required when Ministry of Magic personnel come to visit.

Even wizards like Moody and even Dumbledore couldn't remove the traces on Harry, but most of the wimps in the Ministry of Magic couldn't compete with Dumbledore, so it could only be the power of the magic itself.

Then it would make sense if this magic was cast when the wizard's magic power was very weak, before the wizard had touched the wand.And the sooner this spell is cast, the more deeply entrenched it becomes and cannot be removed.

Just like poison, over time, the poison will become more and more ingrained, and even the original antidote cannot remove it.

In this way, Muggle-born wizards are very dangerous, because the wizard family members are guarded by their parents, and the Ministry of Magic personnel do not dare to tamper with the traces.But if it is a Muggle-born wizard and there is no supervision, if the Ministry of Magic personnel are evil-minded and manipulate the traces, the Muggle wizard will not be able to resist at all.

Trace Thread is obviously a product after the International Secrecy Act came into effect, but it is not like a permanent sticking spell that cannot be broken. Therefore, the only explanation for the magic that makes even a wizard of Dumbledore's level unable to do anything.

In the wizarding world, coming of age at 17 is roughly the age at which a wizard's magic undergoes a major transformation.If Zongsi cannot directly monitor the wizard's age, it is probably because the magic power of the wizard's body changes at the moment of adulthood and echoes Zongsi's mechanism, so Zongsi can undo it.

However, before the age of 17, due to some special reasons, the magic power undergoes a strong change, which can also cause traces to disappear or change, making it impossible to monitor.

The Obscurial One is probably one of them!

Maple's trace silk failed, and no one came to apply it a second time.

I don’t know if Trace Silk can’t be used a second time after being used once, or if Trace Silk is a triggering mechanism.

After the Ministry of Magic applied Trace Silk, it recorded the Trace Silk number, the magic fluctuations when Trace Silk was triggered, and the Trace Silk owner.Then according to this list, wizards who are over 11 years old will be monitored by the Ministry of Magic. Once the Ministry of Magic receives the number of a triggered trace, it will know that a certain wizard cast the spell.

But the trace silk has never been triggered, and the Ministry of Magic will only think that the other party has not violated the regulations, but does not know that the other party's trace silk has disappeared.

Maybe Tracers don't even have the identification function similar to Internet IP. All Tracers are the same. The Ministry of Magic can only use Tracers' signal response to find out where an underage wizard has cast magic and violated the regulations.Then use the residence location registered by the Ministry of Magic for Muggle-born wizards to determine who the wizard is who violated the rules.

Once the underage wizards leave their residence during the holidays and become a floating population, the Ministry of Magic immediately becomes blind and deaf, and then it is impossible to determine who the wizard is from the source of the trace signal.

Harry inflated his aunt when he was 13 years old, and then cast a fluorescent spell a few streets away from home, but the Ministry of Magic staff did not find him immediately, but took the Knight Bus.To be precise, he was discovered by Sirius Black first. If Black had not harbored any ill intentions toward him, he would have been killed before he got on the Knight Bus.
