Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 94, Cruel Curse

As the summer vacation ends and students return to school, the ancient Hogwarts regains its vitality.

Every morning it wakes up while students are running around, and every night it goes to sleep with them.The thousand-year-old castle stands there, witnessing the growth of batches of students.

Accompanied by the castle, the new school year gradually gets on track and a new learning life officially begins.

Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration was always difficult. A rigorous subject coupled with a strict professor made it even more difficult.Professor McGonagall gave each student a beetle, and the students had to turn the beetle into a button before get out of class was over.

But when the get out of class bell rang, the students turned in very few buttons, not enough to make a shirt.Most students spent a long time and could only force those beetles to lose weight and run around in circles on the desk.

Professor Sprout's dress is still simple. She often wears a patched hat. There is always a lot of mud on her clothes, and sometimes there is mud in her fingernails.

The third greenhouse is filled with the smell of damp soil and fertilizer, mixed with the rich fragrance of flowers.The flowers were as big as umbrellas and hung from the ceiling.

The difficulty of herbalism for second-year students has also increased. They no longer come into contact with simple flowers and plants, and begin to learn about more magical and dangerous plants.

The first lesson was to repot the mandrake roots.This is a powerful restorative and an important component of most antidotes.But it's also dangerous, and hearing a mandrake's cry can kill you.

Even though the mandrake roots in the greenhouse are still seedlings, their cries can still make people faint.Therefore, students need to wear safety earmuffs as protection when repotting green and purple seedlings.

Perhaps due to the racial talent bonus in his previous life, Mesa seemed very capable when dealing with flowers and plants, and he completed his work quickly.Pull the grass roots out of the soil and replace the baby-like grass roots in a larger pot.

No students forgot to wear earmuffs, and no students fell into coma.But everyone seems to be disgusted with the ugly-looking grass roots, and the light green, spotted mandrake roots are indeed unpleasant in appearance.

Potions and the history of magic come together on the same day.In the morning, with the help of Professor Binns, the students fell asleep quickly and slept soundly; in the afternoon, they endured the torture of Professor Snape in the underground classroom.

After a summer vacation, Professor Snape is still the same, still lingering in the underground classroom like an old bat.

The Potions Professor seems to like to stop behind each student and then spray his venom to destroy the students' confidence.

Even students like Mesa and Lilia who were good at potions were not spared.Professor Snape was exposed to both rain and dew, and could be regarded as a model of the Duan Shui Master.

"Mr. Black, when you cut off the rat's tail, did you also cut off your own brain?"

"Miss Shafik, rats may seem a little annoying, but in the field of potions, they are more useful than you."

Snape once again proved with practical actions who is the most unpopular professor at Hogwarts.Even Slytherin students secretly said that Professor Snape was good at everything except for his bad mouth.

After finally getting to the end of get out of class, the students swarmed out of the underground classroom.It seemed that as long as he walked slower, Professor Snape would stay here forever and gain the favor of the Potions Professor alone.

The students obviously thought too much. Snape's small stove was not something that could be obtained casually.

Do you dare to let Professor Snape know that you are practicing dark magic in secret?If you don't dare, then stay away. You've delayed the venomous old bat from taking off.

The classroom became deserted after class, and Snape whispered a few words to Mesa at this time, asking him to come to the underground classroom on time on Friday night to receive his private tutoring.

In an instant, the mysterious Professor Mikkelsen became no longer mysterious, and Mesa was looking forward to Friday night.

For the next two days, Mesa no longer cared about anything except Snape's private lessons.Mesa didn't know what Snape would teach him, but it was better to have a professor who was willing to give guidance than to try and figure it out behind closed doors.

Even the mysterious Professor Mikkelsen, Mesa no longer pays attention.As more and more students take Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, there is more and more discussion about Professor Mikkelsen, especially the gruesome content of his lectures.

Compared with the content of the upper grade classes, the five-legged monsters in the second grade pale into insignificance.

Professor Mikkelsen actually discussed the Unforgivable Curse with sixth and seventh grade students, discussing which of the three curses was more cruel.

Although this was only taught to senior students, the discussion about the Unforgivable Curse quickly spread among the students.People who knew these three curses started a heated debate, and those who didn't know these three curses also broadened their knowledge.

Mesa and Lilia also had a small discussion.Lilia thought the Cruciatus Curse was more cruel, but Mesa thought the Imperius Curse was more cruel.

The death curse was unanimously excluded by both of them.Death is death, once and for all, the pain is reserved for the living.

Lilia believed that the pain of the Cruciatus Curse was unbearable.It can not only bring physical torture, but also psychological and spiritual torture.You can't live but you can't die. This is much crueler than death.

Mesa disagreed.You must know that some people's will is stronger than steel, and no amount of pain can shake the lofty ideals in their hearts.Although he hasn’t seen it in person, Mesa has heard a lot about it.

Mesa believes that the Imperius Curse is cruel because it can control others and forcibly "reverse" their consciousness and behavior.You can even force the person being cursed to do anything, as long as he cannot resist your spell.

"If I cast the Imperius Curse on you, and then order you to kill your parents with your own hands. After you do it, I will release the Imperius Curse from controlling you." Mesa gave an example, "You still think it is Is the Cruciatus Curse more cruel?"

Is there anything more painful than destroying all the good things you hold dear with your own hands, whether voluntarily or involuntarily?

After listening to the example Mesa gave, Lilia silently sat a little further away, while staring at Mesa with a perverted look.The big dark eyes seemed to be saying: I only knew you were a lunatic before, but I didn’t expect you were not only crazy, but also a pervert!

In a flash, Mesa finally made it to Friday, and could finally reveal the content of Snape's private lessons.Mesa couldn't hide his excitement every time he thought about it.

For Mesa, nothing is more tangible than being promoted.After all, the magic world still depends on individuals. Any third-rate wizard on the side of the road can knock you down and talk about your fart ideals.

After dinner in the auditorium that night, Mesa couldn't wait to walk to the underground classroom.While waiting for Snape at the door of the classroom, he mentally reviewed the dark magic he had mastered in case Snape asked questions.

About ten minutes later, Snape appeared in the corridor of the underground classroom.Seeing Mesa waiting here in advance, he nodded with satisfaction, but it didn't show on his face at all.

"You're here too early, Mr. Black," Snape said. "It's not yet time for you to have some tutoring."

"If the professor still has something to do, you can be busy first, and I can wait for a while." Mesa said.

When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something.Mesa can put on airs and lose face.If you want to learn something from Snape, why should you bend down and lower your head, not shiver.
