The Emerald at Hogwarts

In September 1994, in an empty classroom in Hogwarts Castle, the learning organization held its first internal meeting.Participants actively participated in the discussion and successfully decided on the organization's name and internal responsibilities.

Through the original method of voting by show of hands, the meeting decided to use "Dawn" as the name of the organization, which means "the night (Lockhart) will eventually pass and dawn is coming."At the same time, Ada became the leader of the organization with an overwhelming advantage of 6 to 1.

The day after the meeting, Ada went to Professor McGonagall with the application form and formally applied to her dean to establish a learning organization.

Professor McGonagall was very happy about the establishment of this study group. She thought Ada established this study group because she wanted to be a role model for students.But when Professor McGonagall saw the list of members, her smile disappeared in an instant because these names were too familiar.

Needless to say, Fred and George are masters of pranks and pioneers in deducting points. These twin brothers make Professor McGonagall both loved and hated.Lee Jordan, another Gryffindor prankster, was a Quidditch-oriented commentator. Every time he explained the game, Professor McGonagall wanted to slap him to death.

If it weren't for the names of Angelina and others at the end, Professor McGonagall would have thought that Ada was planning to form a prank group to prank the teachers and students of the school, rather than a group with the purpose of learning.

Professor McGonagall also knew the reason why Ada and the others formed a study group. Reading and study groups have sprung up in Hogwarts recently, and most of them are mainly senior students.

These senior students are all facing the Wizarding Level Examination. Lockhart is unable to help these senior students, so they can only stay together and cope with the upcoming Wizarding Level Examination on their own.

Lockhart gained the dissatisfaction of the entire school's teachers and students in the shortest time. This achievement was achieved at a speed that even Snape could not match.

Professor McGonagall also tactfully conveyed the voices of the people to Dumbledore, but the aloof Dumbledore remained indifferent and indulged in Lockhart's behavior, completely unaware of the suffering of the people.

The application to establish a study group was quickly approved, and Ada and the others were given a classroom as a venue for activities.This classroom is located on the third floor of the castle. Although it has been vacant for a long time, the classroom is not covered with dust, and it is a bit too big for "Dawn" with only eight students.

In early October, the whole school became damp, and this moisture penetrated into the castle.A cold suddenly broke out among the staff and students, leaving the school nurse Madam Pomfrey in a hurry.

It was under such circumstances that Dawn started its first group activity.That night, eight Gryffindor students appeared on the third floor of the castle one after another.

There was a warm flame burning in this classroom, which dissipated the dampness and coldness in the air. The desks were placed in the corners of the classroom, and the empty space in the middle was covered with soft cushions.

The eight people in the classroom started to perform some simple exercises in pairs. These exercises also allowed Ada to understand everyone's level. Ada once again had doubts about the educational level of Hogwarts.Angelina and the others, who are already in fourth grade, cannot even use the spells in "Standard Spells Level [-]" well.

Fred and George were the only ones that made Ada feel gratified. The two brothers had not practiced with her for so long in vain, and they were the best performers among the seven.

Various sounds of chanting mantras came and went in the classroom, but the accuracy of these mantras was really not very good.Katie, who was practicing with Lini, her spells even flew to Ada, and the soft cushions on the ground flew everywhere.Ada had to wave her wand repeatedly to prevent the classroom from becoming a mess.

There was no other way. Ada could only give up her original idea and start teaching from the most basic things. This time the activity also changed from the initial hope that everyone would master the disarming spell and the iron armor spell, to teaching everyone how to hit the target.

Ada used magic power to control the soft cushion to fly around, and then let everyone take turns trying to hit it.After everyone was able to hit it, Ada increased the flying speed of the pad to increase the difficulty of hitting it.

But Ada didn't let everyone do boring target practice all the time. Repeating such boring exercises could easily demotivate everyone. Not everyone is Ada, and not everyone can endure this hardship.

When Ada stopped the practice and let everyone take a rest, everyone had an expression of relief on their faces.Everyone should solve personal problems when they should, drink water when they should, and chat when they should chat.

"Today's practice was too boring," Li Jordan complained. "Are we going to continue practicing this later?"

"Stop complaining, Lee, do you know how Ada practiced hitting the target?" George squeezed Lee Jordan's shoulder.

Before Li Jordan could speak, Fred said: "I used pebbles, and they were small pebbles that flew very fast. This is much harder than hitting a soft cushion."

"Li, I will practice the Disarming Curse and the Iron Armor Curse with everyone later," Ada said. "These are two very practical spells. Someone once won the duel competition with the Disarming Curse."

"Then when can we learn the Patronus Charm?" Alia asked curiously, "The moment you boarded the Hogwarts Express was so exciting!"

"The Patronus Charm is a very difficult spell, and it is not suitable for everyone to learn it now." Ada said truthfully, "If everyone makes progress fast enough, I think we will soon be practicing the Patronus Charm."

After resting for a while, everyone felt much better. Coupled with the temptation of the Patronus Charm and the new practice content, everyone practiced more actively.

Ada explained the key points of the Disarming Curse and the Iron Armor Curse, and then demonstrated with Fred, and then let everyone start practicing the curse.The twins were paired with Lee Jordan, Angelina and Aaliyah, Katie and Lini, and Ada was responsible for correcting everyone's mistakes in practice.

The sounds of "Expelliarmus" and "Iron Armor" suddenly sounded in the classroom.After the hit practice just now, everyone's accuracy has improved. The wands flew around, hit the ceiling, and sparks flew everywhere.There was chaos in the classroom, and the spell that was deflected by the Iron Armor Curse almost hit Ada who was shopping nearby.

After about another hour, Ada stopped everyone's practice.It was getting late, and if they didn't return to the lounge, they would be violating curfew.
