Primordial Warlock of Hogwarts

Chapter 70: The Courage to Smash Voldemort

When Dumbledore left, he did not forget to use magic to clean up all the traces to prevent more students from seeing it and causing riots.

"What do you think?" Harry couldn't make up his mind. He looked at Ron and wanted to ask Ron, but seeing Ron's confused look now, he gave up asking Ron when he had a better choice. En's thoughts turned to DeWitt and the twins.

"It's an accident." DeWitt had a faint smile on his lips. His eyelids were drooped and he couldn't see his eyes clearly. He said ambiguously: "The principal has already spoken. What else can it be if it's not an accident? It's a disabled person." Is the soul controlling a snake to attack Filch?"

Children should not know too much, DeWitt thought. Excessive curiosity will lead to unnecessary troubles.

"There must be a ghost here!" There is no doubt that the twins' yelling crushed DeWitt's intention on the spot, and then he threw it to the ground and stomped to pieces: "We have to start investigating! Hogwarts imagination The Ministry of Magic is still fooling the public, so we must unite..."

"What about the mirror? What about the movie?" Ron suddenly woke up and yelled unwillingly.Now that Filch can't die, his unbearability has naturally disappeared, because Filch is no longer the poor dying man, but has turned back into the hated castle administrator.

"Yes, this is the key," George said seriously: "We are looking for the evil snake... What about the movie?"

Fred was also hesitating. He would always be consistent with his brother, even if he was hesitating.

"Isn't the movie bad?" DeWitt tried his best to persuade them. He was worried about the safety of several people and asked them not to go into details: "That's the professors' business. Are you going to find the snake? A snake with a curse Snake?"

Exaggerating the danger might make them retreat, DeWitt thought, but he ignored Gryffindor's nature - bravery at best, and sometimes recklessness.

Therefore, the danger did not deter the twins. Instead, they became curious about the unknown that coexisted with the danger - a snake with a curse, who has seen this before?Just like everyone knows that dragons are dangerous creatures, but now there is an opportunity to see the true appearance of dragons, how many people can make the right choice?Only those who deeply understand themselves and have a reverence for their own lives will find a balance between curiosity and safety after careful consideration, and make harmless choices, rather than like the twins -

"That's even more important. How harmful can an animal that specifically targets Filch and a cat, only to injure Filch be?" The twins spoke plausibly, but DeWitt's attitude was still against it. , they had no choice but to lower their voices and say: "Then let's break the news... This was originally inappropriate... but now... Filch is a squib."

Ron immediately questioned: "How can a Squib be a caretaker at Hogwarts?"

Harry was about to ask, he was the only one who didn't know what a squib meant: "What is a squib?"

Ron turned to Harry and explained:

"Squibs are half-wizards who cannot use magic. They are often born in wizard families and have some characteristics of wizards. Most people do not recognize squibs as wizards. Although they are physically the same as wizards, they just cannot cast spells. , Filch turned out to be a squib... This makes sense, no wonder he always hates us freshmen..."

"Don't spread it outside," the twins thought carefully: "This was something we accidentally thought of when we were in confinement - think about it, does Filch not have a wand? All the sanitation in the castle is done by ourselves, and we are a little bit Sympathy... Of course, there is only one point. Being unable to cast a spell cannot be the reason why he wants to restore the system of corporal punishment for students."

"So it's not a big deal at all. The snake that can hurt Filch is nothing to be afraid of." The twins were extremely confident and vowed: "We are not squibs..."

"But we don't have any offensive magic..." Harry said without strength. He was suddenly a little tired from all the adventures. Now that he was mentally relaxed, he just wanted to go back to the dormitory and take another nap.

"Harry is right," DeWitt found the right opportunity and said with a similar tone and choice of words: "You two have been learning magic for a few years, but now we have no way to protect ourselves. This year we... well , 11 years old...still a child..."

The twins suddenly looked at DeWitt and stopped talking. Their eyes looked strange, as if they had heard some shocking and rare news.

"Am I wrong?" DeWitt frowned and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"He said he couldn't protect himself, did you hear that? And... did you know?" George suddenly asked Harry and Ron in a confused manner.

"Know what?" Harry and Ron were confused.

"When we were detained by Filch, Snape came to borrow some magic items from the school to make materials. We overheard their conversation." The twins described vividly: "About the trolls."

"Wasn't the troll driven away?" Ron said quickly.

DeWitt knew what the twins were going to say.

"The troll was killed by a certain first-year student." The twins, one on the left and the other on the right, hinted at DeWitt with their eyes at Harry and Ron.

This may be regarded as a glorious deed and a commendable honor, but DeWitt no longer cares about these things very much. He doesn't care if the twins say it. The fact that only the twins know what happened makes him a little surprised.

"It's just a series of low-probability results caused by coincidence," DeWitt said lightly: "If the publicity is spread, more people will think that they have similar strength and can challenge the troll with only a levitating spell. , what’s the result, why don’t you say more than me?”

"We only heard from Snape that the troll was killed by a first-year student," the twins blinked slyly: "We also noticed that you were not there the day the troll came, and Granger ran in a panic. Find a professor."

"Then you are very smart and very observant," DeWitt laughed: "The Weasley twins have seen through a shadow in Hogwarts Castle again - do you want me to praise you like this?"

"So...so..." Ron was in disbelief, and Harry was also dumbfounded: "You...he...isn't right, DeWitt only used the levitation spell to kill a troll?"

"Don't spread the word outside," DeWitt said nonchalantly, as if the killing of the giant monster was no different to him than a fallen leaf on his shoulder: "Of course, it has been so long now, and most people have forgotten it. The honor and pain of others are quickly forgotten.”

"You are like a philosopher," the twins commented with a smile: "You always add some meaningful truth after saying something, which is different from some boring people."

"I am bored in a different way," DeWitt said with a wave of his hand: "Now that you know it, there is nothing to hide. In short, I prefer the principle of the Mirror of Erised, and use this principle to create the magical world. The movie, Filch-related things...that's what professors have to think about, let me think of an analogy - if I were asked to find the snake that hurt Filch, I would rather fight the troll with my bare hands and no wand. "

"What's so scary about a troll that can be killed with a levitating spell?" The person who said this was not Harry, who lacked knowledge about magical animals, but Ron. He didn't take it seriously, thinking that DeWitt was alarmist: "Harm." Filch's snakes are no more dangerous..."

Ron seemed to have forgotten what DeWitt had just said. Not only were the twins a little helpless towards Ron, but DeWitt also shook his head.

"Part of the reason why professors chose to conceal the death of the troll is to guard against people like you." DeWitt looked directly at Ron coldly, forcing Ron's eyes to flee: "The wizards in the magical world have no wands. What's the point? Not to mention a child - a wild dog on the roadside can kill an adult wizard, so how can we fight against a twelve-foot troll?"

The twins were acting like older brothers this time. They patted Ron on the shoulder to express comfort, and gave DeWitt a thumbs up to indicate that it was well said - maybe sometimes the twins can do better things than throw the wand. It would be even more outrageous to challenge the trolls alone, but they should still be reasonable and would definitely not throw snowballs at the Dark Lord during the snowball fight.

Harry felt that DeWitt was speaking too harshly, and he wanted to say a few words for Ron, but the twins began to smooth things over: "Let's go, let's go, DeWitt is right, in short, there will be no problem if we are careful, we are now What are you doing? Oh, by the way, did you find Harry's invisibility cloak?"

Harry had no choice but to reply: "I got it back."

"Let's learn more, shall we?" the twins said, "No, let's forget it. Ron, this kid, will definitely want to see our map - we don't want him to..."

Ron threw the unpleasantness that happened a second ago to the back of his mind and immediately shouted: "I am your brother!"

"Probably adopted."

Ron was so angry that he couldn't speak, and his face turned as red as his hair.

"Go back and rest," DeWitt concluded. "A lot happened this night. We'll see you after lunch."
