Archdruid of Hogwarts
Chapter 38 The Screaming Shack
Although it was designed according to his own preferences, Ernie positioned the Screaming Shack as a campus secret society activity room and temporary shelter from the beginning.
There are single-room dormitories on the second floor that are small and simple, but have good sound insulation and comfortable beds. There is a large restaurant on the first floor that can be used as a conference room.
At this moment, the little wizards gathered in the large dining room next to the kitchen.
There are a complete set of magic kitchenware and daily utensils here, which are very convenient to use.
Ernie hooked his hand to summon a flying pot, and poured thick hot chocolate into the cup.
"Let's have some hot drinks to fill our stomachs first, and we'll have lunch when we get to Wales."
The little wizards held cups and drank hot drinks, the chills on their bodies were dispelled, and Hannah even shivered.
It was already freezing in northeastern Scotland at the end of October, and Hannah's health was the worst among the six.
Hannah had a small talk with Ernie. He was born with a weak body, and later he was nursed back to health with secret methods, but there were some sequelae. After joining Ernie's foodie team, things have gotten much better. In previous years, at this time of year, my hands and feet would be cold when I went to bed at night. In the cold winter, I would even wake up from the cold due to this problem...
"Where are we?" Justin asked. He, Harry, and Ron all seemed restless, lying next to the window outside the large dining room to look outside.
Ron asked: "There is a village over there, could it be Hogsmeade?"
Ernie nodded: "Guessed correctly, but there is no reward." He then said loudly: "As the organizer of this adventure, I have set up a special award. At the end of this adventure, we will determine the MVP and the most valuable player. , get an invisibility cloak and an oak leaf brooch."
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite gem box and opened it. On the velvet lining, there was an emerald-green oak leaf. If you look closely, there seemed to be a faint light flowing on its surface.
Ron and the others also came around to look at it, and they all said it was beautiful. Hermione pointed out that it still gave off a nice grassy fragrance.
Ernie said: "With the blessing of this magic oak leaf, you will have the title of 'Friend of Nature'. You will not get lost in the wilderness in the forest, and the whomping willow guarding the secret passage will not attack. Of course, It still needs to be used in conjunction with the invisibility cloak. If other little wizards discover the secret passage, they would be too stupid."
"This reward is awesome!" Harry exclaimed.
"Thank you!" Ernie said, telling the little wizards the origin of the Screaming Shack.
Only then did Harry realize that the name of this shack had something to do with him.
He said sincerely: "May our friendship be as sincere and long-lasting as our fathers' generation!"
Ron and others all said yes.
Ernie complained in his mind: “It’s actually not that nice.
It is not difficult to see from James Potter's bullying of Snape that he is a typical troublemaker.
Although Sirius, who was born in the Black family, is kind-hearted, he has an arrogant and reckless side.
Fortunately, Lupine, who had a difficult childhood, acted as the lubricant of the team.
Pettigrew can only be regarded as a follower, and he has the wisdom of life to join if he doesn't want to be bullied. "
But at this moment, the atmosphere is so good, Ernie naturally can't talk about this to spoil the fun.
After resting, it was time to establish a secret path and then use Floo powder to teleport.
He specifically reminded the young wizards about the issue of accurate pronunciation when using Floo powder, so as to prevent Harry from going to Diagon Alley and going to Knockturn Alley like he did in the second grade of history...
The history of the Principality of Wales is older than that of England. Around 1000 BC, Celts came here from central Europe to settle.
The place where Ernie and his party came this time was Newport, the third largest city in Wales.
Specifically, Tredeiga Manor.
Tredegar House, located in 90 acres of parkland, can be said to be an excellent example of Charles II's mansion in the th century.
The oldest part of it was built in the 16th century. It has changed owners several times over the past 500 years. The most commendable one is undoubtedly the ancestral home of the Morgan family in Wales.
Yes, it was the Morgan who later became famous in the Lighthouse Country.
Like many old castles in Europe, this manor now relies on opening some facilities and charging tourist fees to pay for its high maintenance costs.
Ernie and his party were stowaways.
"Clean up!"
"The bright moon is in the sky!"
Ernie waved the wand, like a master music conductor holding a concert in Vienna's Golden Hall, waving the wand gracefully and calmly, completing two spells in a row.
In fact, Ernie can be even more awesome and can cast spells without a wand.
But he didn't want to be too high-profile, and he also coveted the amplifying effect of the wand.
Like now, a space of more than 100 square meters can be cleaned with just one spell. Ordinary adult wizards may not be able to achieve this level.
Although Harry and the others had seen Ernie cast spells, they still couldn't help but admire him at this time.
Although Ernie's preaching tendencies are sometimes frowned upon, they all have to admit that because of Ernie's relationship, their knowledge of magic has greatly improved.
Even newcomers like Harry and Justin, who had extremely poor foundations, now clearly understand the concept of 'power'.
What's more, since Ernie taught 'Perceptual Spellcasting', these days they have each found the spells they are good at and have made breakthrough progress in mastering them. While their theoretical confidence in 'Perceptual Spellcasting' has greatly increased, they have also made comparisons,' The concept of "power" naturally becomes clearer.
Justin said amusingly: "This adventure is simply Ernie's personal show. He has been amazed all the way."
"Well, thank you for the compliment, mainly because of my powerful ability." Ernie said enthusiastically: "If there is a boss battle in our adventure this time, and the bad wizard asks me what my most powerful ability is? I will proudly tell him that if I have money !”
Everyone is happy.
Ron's horse was a little too photographed: "I think Ernie, your spellcasting talent is really strong, and you will definitely become a famous Auror in the future!"
The result caused Hermione's dissatisfaction.
Perhaps because of the natural opposition between top students and bad students, or perhaps because she couldn't stand Ron's increasingly serious tendency to be a jerk, Hermione directly expressed her flattery to Ron, which was not on point. Shameless:
"Ernie's spellcasting is powerful because he is an excellent Hufflepuff and has an excellent grasp of the emotions corresponding to food and life-oriented magic.
Moreover, Ernie is peace-loving and loves these spells. Every time he casts a spell, he is sincere and emotional.
Aurors mainly focus on combat spells and spells to assist combat. So far, Ernie has not shown any interest or talent in this area.
So your compliment is so embarrassing, you know? "
Ron was blushing at this well-founded scolding.
Ernie thought to himself: "Miss Know-It-All, you are really going further and further down the road of 'as long as your IQ is high enough, there is no need to force yourself to work on your emotional intelligence'. If you continue like this, you will really have no friends!"
Ernie also knew that Hermione's behavior was partly related to his rogue way of handling interpersonal relationships.
I also know that this is a typical example of learning only the dross without learning well.
So I decided to show you the correct way to deal with this awkward situation.
"Oh ho ho ho!" Ernie let out an exaggerated laugh and stood there posing and posing, raising his head and squinting at 45 degrees to show off his charming facial contours.
After combing my hair back, I put the back of my hand on my waist, raised the wand in the other hand and raised my fingers diagonally, with an exaggerated look that could make me mad, and said in a tone of voice: "I will tell you, I ran away in private Do you go to the Screaming Shack to train hard just to be able to show off your skills on such an occasion?”
The little wizards were all amused again by Ernie's nonsensical appearance and smart-aleck silly sayings. The awkward atmosphere disappeared without a trace...
This is Ernie's life wisdom, self-deprecation, joking, and acting stupid.
Some people think that this way of abusing oneself is the wisdom of a small person and is easily looked down upon by others.
Ernie doesn't think that whether he is high or low mainly depends on himself.
If you are strong, you can say to yourself, "Others laugh at me because I'm crazy, but I laugh at them because they can't see through it." One day, they will even be interpreted as a model of good talk and approachability.
If you are weak, instead of caring about and taking care of your poor self-esteem, you should be honest and free-spirited, remember today's humbleness, and turn it into motivation to move forward in the future.
Of course, when Ernie had this mentality in his previous life, he was already quite young, and he had to admit that in this life, there are actually only a few important encounters. If you seize them, it will only take a few years to fully improve. If you miss them, I'm afraid I'll have to spend the rest of my life wandering in puddles of mud and puddles...
