I'm a priest at Hogwarts

Chapter 10 Repairing Peeves

The first year Gryffindor followed Percy through the noisy crowd, out of the dining hall and up the marble stairs.

As you walk through the door, which is hidden behind sliding panels and hanging drapes, a small ghost suddenly appears.

"It's Peeves," Percy said, "a ghost who likes to play pranks."

Peeves threw a water bomb into the crowd, hitting Hermione on the head and soaking her all over.

Just when he was about to cast the second one, Orlando took out a talisman and pointed it with one hand. He wanted to test whether the Taoist method was also effective on ghosts.

"Capture the spirit, edict." The talisman blessed by mana spontaneously ignited instantly and turned into a stream of light, hitting Peeves in the air.

Peeves remained in the throwing position and was unable to move in mid-air. Peeves, who had never experienced anything like this before, screamed in horror: "Damn first-year brats, what did you do to Peeves?"

All the freshmen looked at Orlando with curiosity and shock.

Percy also opened his mouth in surprise, "Only Bloody Baron has been able to control Peeves. We senior students can't do anything about it. I didn't expect Orlando to be so powerful."

"It's not as powerful as you think, it's just that I happen to have the means to subdue ghosts." Orlando said modestly.

"This talisman can immobilize Peeves for three hours. I think I taught him a lesson at that time."

Peeves was still roaring and cursing. Orlando, who had originally decided to let it go, decided to teach it a lesson after hearing its dirty words.

"It should be taught a lesson." Hermione wiped the smelly water from her face. For a girl who loves beauty, this is really an unforgivable prank.

What Orlando didn't know was that his action to punish Peeves made him famous in the entire ghost circle. In the days that followed, all the ghosts in Hogwarts knew that there was such a person among this year's new students. A student who restrains ghosts.

A group of first-year freshmen were whispering to each other, excitedly telling about the magic that Orlando had just used. They were very surprised that he cast a spell to stop Peeves without using a wand, just a piece of paper.

There is a portrait hanging at the end of the corridor. In the portrait, a very rich woman is wearing pink clothes.

"Password?" she said.

"Dragon scum," Percy replied.

The painting was seen swaying forward, revealing a circular hole in the wall, and everyone crawled in through the hole under the leadership of Percy.

This is the Gryffindor common room, a comfortable round room filled with soft armchairs.

Orlando likes the layout here, it feels like home.

Percy directed the girls through one door to their dormitories, then led the boys through another door and through a spiral staircase.

As early as the dinner, Ron and Harry agreed to live with Orlando, and Neville also came over (Percy's dormitory as prefect). The four of them found their own dormitory, with four rooms with four pillars. The bed was hung with a crimson flannel curtain, and their boxes had already been delivered.

Ao looked around the room. It was obvious that they were in a tower. Orlando pointed to a bunk by the window on the east side and said, "I choose this place."

"As you wish." Ron said. He was so sleepy that he found a bed and fell down.

"Neville, where do you choose?" Harry was also very sleepy, but still let Neville choose first.

After allocating the beds, several people fell asleep one after another.

Orlando lay on the bed, smelling the sunshine from the sheets and pillows, and sighed, the service at Hogwarts was quite attentive.

In the castle, in the Hogwarts Principal's office, Dumbledore was sitting in the principal's office chair, wearing a Sorting Hat on his head, communicating with the Sorting Hat from time to time.

Professor McGonagall was sitting in front of the desk, pointing her wand at her head, and occasionally pulling out a wisp of white smoke and putting it into the stone basin on the table.

"Albus, is it really okay?" Professor McGonagall asked as Dumbledore took off the Sorting Hat.

"Minerva (Professor McGonagall's nickname), don't rush to conclusions. Let me take a look at the memory in the Pensieve first." Dumbledore said as he waved his wand.

After a moment, Dumbledore came back from his thoughts and said: "Minerva, I think this child has a good nature. From this point of view, we cannot discriminate against him. After all, we are a magic school. Teaching and educating people is our job, isn’t it?”

Dumbledore tapped his fingers lightly on the table, lost in memories, and continued after a moment: "As for the power he has, I think it is an ancient Eastern Taoism. I have seen this kind of thing when I traveled around the world in the early years. strength......."

Professor McGonagall wanted to say something else, but Dumbledore stopped her with a finger and said: "Since this child has chosen Gryffindor, as the dean, I think you have the responsibility to guide him. On the right path, I have no doubts about your ability, Minerva."

"Well, since you have made your decision, principal, I won't say anything more." Professor McGonagall stood up and left the principal's office.

Orlando, who was immersed in sleep, didn't know that he was disliked by Professor McGonagall, the head of Gryffindor, and almost took a day trip to the new school.

The next day, before dawn, Orlando's biological clock woke up. He washed his face gently, opened the window and climbed out, found a place with a wide view, sat cross-legged, and started the day's morning classes.

After so many years of reincarnation, except for cloudy and rainy days, his morning classes have never stopped. Although he has not yet established a foundation, his Qi practice has already entered the Great Perfection. The failure of the golden elixir in his previous life made him fully realize the importance of laying a good foundation. .

After finishing his morning classes, Orlando returned to the dormitory along the same route. At this time, the genius was dim and Harry and the three of them were still asleep.

Orlando took out a few gravity charms from the glass bracelet and put one on his chest and back, one on each hand and each foot. Due to material limitations, these gravity charms were doubled in order to meet the current needs of body training. , he had to post a few more.

After doing this, Orlando quietly opened the door, walked through the spiral staircase, and came to the Gryffindor common room. The place was empty, and the students were all sleeping at this time, so no one would disturb them. It was the best place to practice. .

After an hour of high-intensity exercise, Orlando was sweating. At this time, the castle gradually started to make noises. Orlando packed up the tables and chairs that he had messed up and returned to his dormitory.

Neville was washing his clothes. When he saw Orlando coming in, he asked in surprise: "Orlando, why are you going so early?"

Orlando picked up a towel and wiped his face, nodded to Neville and said, "Go to the common room to exercise."

"Do you want to use the shower head? If not, I'll take a shower."

"No, you can use it."

The sound of the two talking woke up Ron and Harry. They rubbed their eyes and sat up sleepily.

Orlando dug out a change of clothes and took a comfortable shower.

At this time, Harry and the three of them had already changed their clothes and were waiting for Orlando.

"Orlando, I heard from Neville that you got up before dawn to exercise?" Harry asked curiously.

"Yes, you must practice consistently, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve success." Orlando said casually after changing his clothes.

"Is it the kind of skill that can defeat the three Malfoys with one move?" Ron added hurriedly.

Neville's eyes lit up and he came over.

Looking at the hopeful looks of the three people, Orlando shrugged, "So be it."

"You said you would teach us." Ron said eagerly.

"Are you sure you want to learn now?"

The three of them answered in unison: "We must learn."

"Well, since you are so insistent, it would be good for you to experience it first."

Orlando took out three gravity charms, pressed his fingers to activate them, and put one on each of their backs.

The sudden increase in gravity caused Ron to stumble and sit on the ground. Harry bent over and tried to stand up straight, while Neville immediately crawled to the ground unable to move.

"This is a double gravity charm. You must wear it at all times until you can walk as before."

"Oh my God, what kind of magic are you doing? I can't even stand up." Ron yelled.

He casually tore off the gravity charms on the backs of the three of them. After the three regained their strength, Orlando took off his coat and pointed at himself and said: "See, six times, that is, six times the gravity. When will you adapt to six times the gravity?" When the time comes, you can knock down three people with one move."

Neville had a look of disbelief on his face, Harry looked at him with gleaming eyes, and Ron opened his mouth in shock.

"Orlando, how did you do it, six times gravity, and all-weather? Have you always practiced like this before? No wonder you are so strong?"

"I have decided that I will never sleep in again, I will practice with Orlando." Harry said with excitement.

"Me too."

"Me too."

Orlando shook his head. It was not that he disliked them, but he doubted whether they could hold on.

"Well, I really can't do anything about you."

A group of four people walked out the door chatting and laughing.

"It's over there, look."

"Where? Where?"

"Next to the tall black-haired boy, there is a red-haired boy with freckles following behind him. Do you see that?"

"The one with the glasses?"

"Yeah, that's it."

"Did you see his face?"

"I didn't see the scar."

......

Before he found the classroom, Orlando felt crazy. He felt like he was about to become a monkey in the zoo. To be precise, it was Harry. He was the monkey king and they were just monkey grandchildren.

Students lined up outside the classroom, all standing on tiptoe, wanting to see Harry's true face.In the corridor, they passed Harry and came back, staring at him.

This makes it difficult for a few people to concentrate on finding the way to the classroom. There are a total of 140 staircases in Hogwarts.

Some of them are wide and big; some are narrow, small, and rickety; some lead to a different place every Friday; some go up halfway, and a step will suddenly disappear, and you have to remember where it is. Should jump over.

Plus, there are lots of doors here that won't open for you if you ask them to be rude, or poke in the right place, and some aren't real doors at all, just a block of what appears to be The solid wall of the door.

It’s hard to remember what is where because everything seems to be constantly moving.The people in the portraits also visited each other constantly, and Orlando was sure that even armor could walk.

"I regret it." Orlando muttered as he was harassed one after another.

"What?" Harry asked, walking with his head lowered for fear of being discovered.

"I regret not sharing the same dormitory with the savior." Ron said sourly.

"Um..., I'm sorry." Harry blushed.

"Just kidding, don't mind. Let's find a way quickly. I don't want to be late on the first day of school."

The first class was Charms. The teacher of Charms was Professor Flitwick, an unusually small wizard. During the class, he had to stand on a pile of books to reach the desk.

Orlando does not judge books by their appearance. Although he knows all the first-grade courses by heart, he still listens carefully and raises his hands to ask questions from time to time. These questions are all difficult questions he recorded while reading.

Some of these questions go beyond the scope of first grade knowledge, and many also involve the origin of spells and the nature of magic.

But Professor Flitwick still answered the question patiently. He was very satisfied with this studious and diligent student, and awarded 5 Gryffindor points for this.

Invisibly, Orlando broke the school's record of being the fastest to earn bonus points for the academy since its inception.

In his previous life, Orlando relied on two books left by his grandfather to explore the path of spiritual practice alone. This allowed him to develop a good habit of independent thinking.

During this period, we inevitably took many detours. In this life, we have such good learning conditions. If we can't seize it again, we will be so sorry for the opportunity of rebirth given by God.

After class, Orlando felt that he had learned a lot. He needed to go to the library to look for books on the origin of magic. He felt that the evolution of magic was the history of the evolution of magic. In the process of continuous exploration, human wizards gradually The power of magic was developed, which manifested itself in the form of spells.

If he could understand this principle thoroughly, it would be of great help to his Taoist practice.

"Orlando, Ron and I are going to explore the castle. Do you want to come with us?" Harry's words interrupted Orlando's thoughts.

"I won't go. I want to go to the library."

"Oh my god, school has just started, and you have already memorized the entire book, and you are still so serious. Are you working too hard?" Ron lamented.

"There is no end to learning. If you don't advance, you will retreat!" Orlando patted Ron on the shoulder.

"You're right, you're just too lazy." Hermione said, holding a stack of books, "Orlando, I'll go with you."

Ron made a face at Hermione's back.

There was no class at noon, so Orlando could go to the library to look for books. The few of them parted at the door of the classroom.

The school library of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry can be said to be the best library in the entire UK or the entire European continent. Of course, I am referring to magic-related libraries.
