HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

Chapter 71 Abandoned Classroom

James is a magical person who can easily bring joy to those around him. As long as he is around, you can always feel the joyful atmosphere radiating from the inside out.

For example, now, everyone was anxious about Sirius's matter, but after James's joke, everyone calmed down, recalled what had happened since the beginning of the school year, and carefully thought about the strangeness of it.

After a heated discussion among them, they really didn't find anything, so they could only regretfully announce that the result of the discussion was that Sirius was suffering from Mercury retrograde.

"But, when I observed the stars at night, this is not Sirius' Mercury retrograde period." Ander held up the astronomy book, pointed to a passage on it and read it out.

James was closest to Ender. He stretched his neck and saw what was written in the book. He patted Ender on the shoulder and said earnestly, "I know you're not good at these, but last year's schedule was too much, wasn't it?"

"What? Sorry, sorry." Ander flipped through the textbook in a panic, explaining, "It seems that astronomy class and I are not meant to be together. I don't like looking at the stars."

"Do you really believe this?" Lily never thought that these things could have such a big impact. They were just illusory things.

Ander answered that he didn't believe it, but after all, he had to put this course to some use, otherwise he really didn't want to take those boring courses. He even had the mood to tease Lily that she was so good at astronomy but didn't believe in these things. The professor must have been sad to hear that.

Lily blushed when she heard his words. She tried to explain something stubbornly, but her voice became smaller and smaller. Finally, she admitted in a frustrated tone that she just didn't want her report card to look bad.

"Excuse me, it's not that mysterious." Lily still disagreed with their attempt to label this incident as Mercury retrograde. "If you look at it this way, then everything is related to Mercury retrograde?"

"Who knows." The boys shrugged their shoulders. They couldn't think of any other suitable explanation.

Lily obviously wanted to argue further, but what Xia said stopped her.

"Oh, we are in the magical world now, what is impossible?"

To be honest, Xia is looking at things from the perspective of Muggles. Generally, wizarding families do not think that magic is a novelty. In their eyes, not being able to do magic is worth making a fuss about. But wizards from Muggle families and Muggle-born wizards will initially think that magic is absurd, which is why Hogwarts will send a professor to visit Muggle families.

Lily suddenly realized, they all learned magic, so what was impossible?

The little witch happily joined the boys in using Mercury retrograde to explain, but she still had to reiterate: the claim that James was deducted points because he was caught by the professor in Mercury retrograde was pure nonsense!

At this time, Sirius, the central figure of the incident, pushed open the door. He didn't expect to see so many people on this road.

"Uh...hi?"

He stood at the door holding a tattered book and spoke awkwardly. During this period, he kept a safe distance from most people. He didn't want to bring bad luck to the people around him. Of course, except for James and a few others, they were useless except sticking to him like a mixture of sticky agent! They couldn't even help him avoid those things!

"Hey, Sirius!" The happiest person among these people must be Xia. She really rarely saw Sirius except during class.

As she spoke, she had already come to Sirius' side: "Did you just come back from the medical wing?" It was clearly a question but he said it as a confirmation.

Sirius, who had just come out of the medical wing, still had the unique smell of the medical wing on his body. Xia had to get close to his collar to smell it. Sirius was startled by Xia's action. He took a step back but was blocked by the closed door.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like Xia is bullying Sirius. After Xia realized this problem, she pretended to be calm and stood up. "Ahem, are you okay now? Are you hurt anywhere?"

"Not bad." Sirius fixed his hair, then raised the book in his hand and said, "I came here to see this. I picked it up on the road. I've never seen it before."

Lily's eyes lit up when she heard this, she couldn't wait to read it. Sirius handed the book to Lily. If anyone was the most interested in it, it would be Lily, besides himself who saw it.

With Lily helping him read, Sirius also had extra hands to tidy up his slightly red earlobes.

Lily was flipping through the book, Xia was frantically making up her notes on History of Magic, and the others were obediently copying Lily's homework. It was truly the most harmonious scene.

"Look." Lily pointed to a passage and said, "It says here that breaking the curse requires the purest blood. That is one of the ways to defeat darkness."

"But isn't the purest being the unicorn? I only know that unicorn horn is a potion material, but unicorn horns are rare to begin with, and now I don't even know where I can find them, let alone unicorn blood."

"Merlin..." Xia was also shocked. She looked at the book in disbelief. "During the summer vacation, I heard from my grandparents that the unicorn's horn, blood and hair all have strong magical effects. The horn has the effect of detoxification. The tail hair can be used to make a wand - my wand is it."

Everyone is actually familiar with the unicorn's horn and tail hair, as they are basically mentioned in textbooks, but what Xia said next was something they had never known.

"But its blood is silver-white and has the ability to cure diseases and even bring the dead back to life. However, legend has it that drinking its blood is equivalent to defiling this pure creature and will result in a curse. From now on, you can only live like a zombie - only half a life, and the other half is a cursed life that began when you drank its blood."

Several people opened their eyes wide, and a cold feeling spread throughout their bodies.

Ender's voice trembled. He asked, "But who would drink the blood of a unicorn?"

No one answered him, and the young wizards who were not experienced in the world could not imagine who would do such a crazy thing. However, they also knew that even the most evil dark wizard would not sell his soul.

"I still don't understand. If you drink unicorn blood to break the curse, then..." James didn't finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant.

Sirius said with some disgust, "Only useless people would think of relying on innocent lives to alleviate their own suffering. It's not surprising why such people would be cursed."
