Hogwarts School of the Dark Arts

"Do you think there is a possibility...that Professor McGonagall had an affair with Professor Snape? She is actually a spy sent by Slytherin House!"

Xavier:…

What a strange idea!

"Professor McGonagall just has stricter requirements on us... I want to go to the library, do you want to go?" Xavier asked.

"No, if there are other classes in the afternoon, I would still be interested in studying. Forget about Potions class. Points will be deducted for various reasons anyway," Ron said.

Upon hearing what Ron said, Harry, who seemed a little moved at first, immediately gave up his idea and expressed that he didn't want to go. Instead, he discussed with Ron where to go to play later.

Taking his notes with him, Xavier left the dining room alone and walked out of the Gryffindor dormitory building to the library.

Now Xavier is still not familiar with the hundreds of stairs at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but he is very familiar with the two points and one line from the dormitory to the library, so familiar that he can pass it with his eyes closed.

When passing by a utility room, Xavier suddenly heard something moving inside. Out of curiosity, Xavier walked over and took a look. He saw a ghost playing with a bundle of canes, and he didn't know what he was doing.

"Peeves? What are you doing?" Xavier asked.

Peeves seemed to be frightened by Xavier, and quickly hid his staff behind his back... However, its body was translucent and could not block anything at all.

When Peeves turned around and saw Xavier, his face suddenly showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and he swished through the wall next to him at an extremely fast speed.

"This...do I look so scary???"

That's not right. At most, it looks a bit scary, but certainly not scary.

"Well, it seems that the aesthetics of ghosts are completely different from humans. Otherwise, how could I scare ghosts with my face, which has appeared in so many advertisements and movies?"

Although Peeves interrupted, Xavier still came to the library to study as planned.

There are a large number of magic books on every bookshelf in the library, and Xavier has already emptied two bookshelves.

Xavier will read every book, but he does not read every page in detail, but selectively.

There is no way, each of these magic books has more than half of the author's autobiography, and the autobiography is full of self-promotion, and there is really very little useful information.

Even the non-autobiographical part contains a large number of past experimental processes, especially the author's own past experiments that were proven to be wrong.

After removing these useless contents, a [-]-page magic book would probably only have about ten pages left at most. It would not take long to finish reading a magic book.

And as he read more magic books, Xavier read new ones faster, because almost every magic book contained a large number of references to content from other magic books published earlier.

So far, Xavier has read no fewer than ten magic books on the basic theories of magic. By reading these magic books, Xavier discovered a shocking secret!

In previous lives, all European mysticism was discovered on the basis of the four-element theory. The four-element theory is to the West what the five elements are to the East.

The story of the Harry Potter novel is based on British mythology, that is, King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, so the magic system is naturally developed based on the four-element theory.

But now at Hogwarts, after reading so many magic books about magic theories, Xavier discovered that none of them mentioned the theory of four elements!

Today's magic world seems to have skipped the stage of the four-element theory and developed directly backwards. As a result, the magic world does not have a systematic general outline of magic theory. Instead, there are countless scattered disciplinary theories.

"If it is certain that no one in the magic world has proposed the four-element theory, can I get the Order of Merlin if I propose it?"

With this idea in mind, Xavier's next goal is to read those magic books on the basic theories of magic to see if there are any similar theories in the magic world.

If you don't have it, you can think of ways to get medals. If you have it, you can better understand and learn magic. Regardless of whether you have it or not, Xavier will definitely make money.

Until the afternoon, Xavier left the library and headed to the Potions classroom in a happy mood.

Xavier was even happier when he went to Potions class, because Snape liked Xavier quite a lot...at least that's how Xavier felt.

The proof is that Xavier has never been penalized by Snape!

In fact, if you think about it, Xavier never takes the initiative to answer questions to express himself, he has no grudge against Snape, and he can perfectly complete the assignments assigned by him. Even a professor would not hate this kind of student.

And Xavier felt that his father might have had an interaction with Snape, and it was in a positive way, because Snape paused for a moment when he called his name in the first Potions class.

Both of them were Death Eaters back then, and they both shared a different bed with Voldemort. It was very possible that they had crossed paths.

"Xavier, should you stir the scabies potion clockwise or counterclockwise?" Harry asked in a low voice.

"Can you forget this?"

"Professor Snape didn't give me any trouble today, and the potion is almost finished, so I'm a little excited."

"Oh~" Xavier rolled his eyes: "Counterclockwise."

"How many laps?"

"Three laps."

"Okay, thanks..."

Bang!

"Harry Potter! What are you doing again?" Snape heard the sound and looked at the cauldron: "You must have been stirring counterclockwise, right?"

Harry looked towards Xavier, just in time to see Xavier stirring the cauldron clockwise.

"Xavier told me to stir counterclockwise," Harry said, looking at Snape.

At this moment, Harry's heart was: Let you harm me!Let's all be punished together!

"Really? So why did he finish?"

"He's teasing me on purpose!"

"Then why didn't you realize he was teasing you? Because you didn't know the right way. Two points from Gryffindor for that."

After saying that, Snape strode away, his back showing an aura of pleasure.

"How is it? Are you not so excited now? Have you remembered the correct configuration method?" Xavier asked softly.

Harry glared hard at Xavier: "Thank you, I'm not excited at all now, but my blood pressure is a bit high and I want to hit someone!"

"You're welcome. We are good friends and helping you is what I should do."

Patting Harry on the shoulder, Xavier looked at Ron who was across from Harry. His potion hadn't been brewed yet.

"Ron, do you need my help?"

Upon hearing Xavier's words, Ron's hand trembled, and his wand suddenly moved in the wrong direction.

Bang!

"One point from Gryffindor."

Snape's voice came as promised.
