"So, by chance, I guessed a certain spell of the Disguise Curse correctly?"

"I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, Ryan." Dumbledore erased the writing in the air. "There used to be a very small school in the world of magic theory. They believed that the pronunciation of the spell itself was not important, the key was something in the spell. Rhythm, this can well explain the phenomenon that spells can be cast in different countries and languages. However, as spells were standardized and unified, accurate, and effective pronunciation became mainstream, this theory also died out.

"You can try changing the pronunciation to see if it has any effect." Dumbledore said, "Many wizards in ancient times had local accents. People in different places may say the same spell completely differently. You can try 'Dice Lefeu' can't make it."

Ryan nodded, took out his wand and knocked on the table: "Disillusionment."

As the light distorts, the pattern of the floor appears on the table.Although it failed, it was obvious that the spell was effective.

Closing his eyes and feeling the flow of magic just now, Ryan adjusted the rhythm of his wand: "Disillusionment."

This time the table disappeared completely.

"Incredible..." Dumbledore took off his glasses, wiped them, and put them back on, "So that's what happened."

He looked at Ryan as if he were looking at a strong leek, with an indescribable smile on his face.

What does "so that's what happened" mean?Also, what kind of weird smile is that of yours, Old Glass? Ryan felt like he had goosebumps all over his body.

"Ahem, okay, I already know what happened." Dumbledore said, "I'm sorry for the interruption, and, Ryan, I just want to confirm whether you have used any dangerous transformation techniques privately. If there is any misunderstanding, I would like to express my sincerest apology to you. Of course, you must also promise me not to try to study spells by yourself. Many people have lost their lives because of this."

Ryan curled his lips and did not answer.

Lao Deng deserves to be single for the rest of his life because of his attitude of never saying anything, taking a tough stance, and making amends after the fact.

"Well, Spencer, it's time for us to go."

"What? Just leave now? Where's the punishment?"

"I think you have also heard the whole story." Dumbledore said helplessly, "From any point of view, Mr. Franklin was just accidentally bumped into by a Muggle without knowing it, and there is no reason to bear the punishment anyway. "

"What about our Ministry of Magic's losses?" Spencer waved his hands, "The Memory Cancellation Command works day and night. Until now, there is no way to confirm whether any Muggles have been missed. Such a major illegal incident has been revealed in one stroke. Already?"

"Besides this, do you have any other options?" Dumbledore asked.

"Penalty! Go to the Wizengamot court! Confiscate the wand! Fine!" Spencer pointed at Ryan, "We must teach him a profound lesson."

"Is this what Connelly meant?" Dumbledore's voice suddenly became extremely cold.

"No...no, it's just our suggestion." Spencer whispered in a timid voice.

The power of the most powerful white wizard on the surface is far beyond what a small employee of the Ministry of Magic can contend with.

"Do your work well and finish it carefully. This is my suggestion." Dumbledore clasped his hands behind his back, "Or are you willing to go to the Wizengamot with me? If you can find any law that applies to the current situation..." He sneered, "Then Hogwarts is willing to bear all losses."

Spencer immediately spoke: "Article [-] of the "Confidentiality Act"..."

"Oh, that's right." Dumbledore said, "Wizards who use magic in front of Muggles and cause significant impact will be punished by the local magic agency. But Spencer, there is a special provision in No. 90 of the Statute of Secrecy, minors The management and confidential education of wizards are organized by local magic institutions, and any losses caused by improper management will be borne by the magic institution."

He looked at Spencer, who was blushing, and continued: "You don't want to punish yourself, do you?"

The "Law of Secrecy" issued in 1692 is already full of loopholes.

Spencer still refused to give up: "There is also the "Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act"..."

Before he finished speaking, Dumbledore interrupted: "Article 12, paragraph 17, of this law says that this law applies to minor wizards in school between the ages of [-] and [-]."

Ryan is only 11 years old and is considered a preschooler in the magical world, so the "Restraint Law" naturally does not apply.Only after the first grade is over and a confidentiality agreement is signed, the "Restraint Law" will officially come into effect.

Looking at Spencer who was dejected and thinking hard about the legal provisions, Ryan knew the Ministry of Magic's plan, and he decided to make up for it.

He rolled his eyes and said confidently: "I ask the Ministry of Magic to pay me a compensation. I only need 100 gold galleons..."

"What? You damn mud... little bastard!" Spencer, who was being stared at by Dumbledore, changed his words decisively, "How dare you ask the Ministry of Magic for money? Why do you dare to ask the Ministry of Magic for money?"

"I made it very clear." Ryan said with a sullen face, "First, due to your negligence, I wasted my time and hurt the feelings of a child who loves magic; second, my new academic research The result may have been plagiarized by you. And, because of your insult to me, I now want 500 gold galleons."

"You think so beautifully!"

"Or, I can write a pamphlet called "New Illusion Spell: A Simple Application of Invisibility"?"

Spencer laughed a little hysterically, and he shouted loudly: "Don't even think about it! We only need a law, and it is illegal if you dare to reveal the Disappearance Curse!"

"It's really ridiculous." Ryan said in a relaxed tone, "Who told you that I planned to leak the Disillusionment Curse? I just wanted to put my insignificant achievements in the restricted book section of the Hogwarts library."

"Anyone is welcome to leave his wisdom behind," Dumbledore responded with a smile.

Restricted book zone?In a sense, it is not equivalent to a public spell.

"You can't..." Spencer's voice was a little whimpering. Instead of completing Minister Connelly's task of making a small fortune on Muggle families, he would have to lose a lot of money. The stingy minister would definitely not keep it all, so this money , it can only come out from oneself.

"Professor Dumbledore, is it forbidden to learn the Disguise Curse at Hogwarts?" Ryan pretended to be confused, "Isn't this obviously not conducive to the inheritance of the curse?"

"Oh, that's a good question, Ryan." Dumbledore said, "Of course we won't teach this kind of spell easily. You know, young wizards of your age are always very restless. Speaking of which, since you have already mastered After using the Disillusionment Curse, I think I might ask the professors to watch the night..."

Ryan shrugged. Learn the Illusion Body Spell for night walks?nonexistent.As a future Hufflepuff, how could he possibly violate school rules?Sleep is very important, okay?

The Disillusionment Curse was just in case, to save a trump card, which was why he didn't want Dumbledore to know about it in the first place.

"However, in the fifth grade, as long as you apply to the professor and get approval from the Ministry of Magic, you can learn the Disillusionment Curse." Dumbledore added, "In fact, the Disappearance Curse is not a spell that is strictly prohibited. The Ministry of Magic is proud of it. Almost everyone knows it, and learners only need to sign a loose confidentiality agreement. After all, the patent for the Disguise Curse is currently controlled by the Ministry of Magic, but since you are self-taught, the Ministry of Magic has no reason to pursue it."

"Professor Dumbledore..." Spencer's voice was desperate and resentful.Why?Why is the professor so heartless? I obviously graduated from Hogwarts.

Dumbledore seemed to relent: "Well, my personal suggestion is, Ryan, to give up the compensation from the Ministry of Magic..."

Spencer just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Dumbledore say: "Instead of having a dispute with the Ministry of Magic and causing the spell to be hidden, it would be better to donate the patent of the spell to Hogwarts. Of course, in recognition of your contribution to the study of magic Contribute, I can privately sponsor a bonus, but I can only give you 100 Galleons."

"No, you can't - there's no reason - it's too hasty - the Ministry of Magic wouldn't..."

"make a deal!"
