The Death Knell

We sat down and chatted for a while about miscellaneous things, mainly Harry was talking about his feelings after becoming a professor, looking at this familiar castle from a different perspective, you will find something different.

He now feels that Hogwarts is very fresh, even his own office is so interesting, even though there are spiders crawling on the ceiling that has not been cleaned all year round, but being with these things is part of a wizard's life. I feel great, my waist is not sore, my legs don't hurt, and I don't have to strenuously climb the eight flights of stairs at one go. I even feel more energetic than when I was a student.

Seeing him so happy, Su Ming was quite satisfied. After all, he changed Harry's fate without any intention of harming him, just for a better result. After a while, Hermione came back after arranging things. She also brought the current physical education professor Neville, so the group of four started a new round of chatting, mostly about Hogwarts topics.

Neville was a lot more handsome when he grew up. Not only did he not look like he was obese when he was a child, but now this guy is full of tendons and is taller than Deathstroke himself.

You must know that Su Ming is actually not short. 187 cm is a standard height in the superhero circle, but the original little fat man is now a devilish muscular man. Not to mention his height of two meters, his arms are bigger than Harry's thighs Thick round. He is also very grateful to Professor Wilson, because he lost Toad Raffle on the train on the first day of school, and the professor helped to find it.

Later, when he was in school, he couldn't keep up with almost all the courses, except for physical education and herbal medicine, and the corresponding two professors were also the best for him.

In fact, he was also very tired when he started exercising, and he even cried to his grandma, but grandma said that the professor was doing it for his own good, and it was enough for him to be obedient. It has been more than ten years since he persisted in this way. Not only has he recovered from the amnesia he suffered when he was a child, but he also looks good. I don’t know how popular he is with witches. The wizard who said he was about to break the fireplace in his hometown.

It's normal, Neville was born in the Longbottom family, a standard pure-blood nobleman, with a big family and a big business, and he doesn't have to worry about food and drink. He himself is powerful and handsome, plus he and his grandmother are the only ones left in the family, and the family relationship is relatively simple. This makes him the son-in-law that many pure-blood families want.

Su Ming said very modestly that it was not his own credit. After all, he only taught Neville how to exercise, and he taught it to every student. Neville was able to persevere and achieve today's results all because of his own perseverance. Especially for someone like him who had amnesia problems in the past, he didn't forget to get up and exercise every day, and he had to remember every item. The hard work and sweat he put in was unmatched by others.

Most of the time, Su Ming likes smart people, but those with perseverance and perseverance like Neville are also good.

The four of them chatted and drank tea, and when the time came, they went to eat in the small hall on the side of the cafeteria. The food made by the house elves still tasted the same, but at least it was much better than the fish and potatoes in the Muggle world outside.

During the meal, Su Ming also asked Neville about ancient magic by the way. He wanted to recruit him into the Order of the Phoenix and help Hermione in the future.

But I didn't expect that Neville really knew something just by asking casually. There is a faint stubble on the chin of the strong man. When he folded his arms and leaned on the chair, the muscles on his shoulders bulged up the robe. Maybe it was to show his current memory. He only recalled it for a short time. After a moment, he said with certainty:

"I know about ancient magic. Grandma once told me a story."

"Wait a minute, Neville, I know your grandma used to be an Auror, but why did she tell you about it? After all, there's such a thing as ancient magic, we haven't even heard of it before today."

Hermione held a knife and fork in her hand, and there was a piece of steak in front of her. At this time, the steaming food was covered with red wine sauce. She was a little surprised to hear that Neville knew about ancient magic. .

"Ah, I thought it was a scary fairy tale when I said it." Neville shook his head mockingly. His grandma had tried various methods to cure his amnesia in the past, including telling scary stories to scare him: "Then It was in second year, remember the incident with Ginny's diary? She freaked out afterward and told Harry about it

, and I just happen to hear it. "

"Tom Riddle's diary, I remember." Hermione nodded. At that time, the professor lied to her that she was going to slay the dragon. In the end, she went from the bathroom to the secret room, and then killed a basilisk with a flashbang and a shotgun: "One of Voldemort's Horcruxes." The diary was taken away by the professor, and then they had a meeting with the principal to destroy it. It was one of Voldemort's Horcruxes.

"That's right, it's a horcrux, but back then I didn't know what a horcrux was, I just told my grandma what I barely remembered when I came home from vacation, and she immediately said it was a horcrux, and then said The origin of a wicked magic, to frighten me."

When he said this, Neville raised his hand and scratched the top of his head, obviously embarrassed by his unfulfilling state when he was young.

"You mean that the magic used to split the Horcrux is some kind of application of ancient magic?" Harry also understood, but he was obviously uncomfortable, and raised his hand to cover his lightning scar, as if there It started to sting and burn again.

"Yes, at least that's what my grandma said. I don't know if the story is true, but I can tell you."

The strong man grabbed the cup on the table, drank the sugar-free drink in it, cleared his throat, and began to tell the story his grandma told him, which he had forgotten but now remembered.

According to legend, more than a thousand years ago, when Hogwarts was established less than two hundred years ago, there once appeared a girl named Isidora Morgana, who came from a city not far from Hogwarts. In a remote village, the family is poor and life is miserable.

When she was young, a severe drought broke out in the local area, which even triggered a forest fire. By the time the Hogwarts professors arrived, her house had been burned down, and her brother was also killed in the fire. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

But she also saw that day there was a special character among the professors, whose magic radiated a different light from others, that professor was very powerful, he could call wind and rain to put out fires just by raising his hand, and create Going out of the black lake blocked the spreading fire, and flicking the wand can make the forest reappear. So Isidora, who was a Muggle, was stunned, as if she saw God and hope.

As a village on the verge of Hogwarts, although it is farther than Hogsmeade, it can be regarded as a magical village. The Muggles living in it have seen a lot of magic in the past, but they have never seen such a powerful magic. curse.

The young Isidora was very smart. She realized that she could also see the colorful light dancing with magic. She might also have extraordinary potential and be able to use such power. As long as she had the power, probably, she would be able to Bring your brother back to life?

So a few years later, she was proved to have magical talent and entered Hogwarts to study, and soon because she could see the light that other wizards could not see, she was noticed by Percival Rackham and received For the apprentice, it's like the relationship between Professor Wilson and Hermione.

This Professor Rackham was the one who rescued the village with the magic weapon at that time. What he used was ancient magic, and it was said that it came from the most original power of this world.
