The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 419 Black Magic Quill
After the Christmas holiday, the weather has been gloomy, and everyone's mood is similar to the weather.Because Umbridge's presence made everyone feel uncomfortable, especially since she started using the black magic quill to physically punish the students.Maybe she felt that she could no longer control the situation in school, so she could only use violent means to stop everyone's mouths.

Harry, for example, made little progress in the occlumency exercises taught by Professor Snape after Christmas, which annoyed him, and because of the relationship between his father and Snape, which made him suffer in class. A lot of trouble.So I couldn't control my temper and confronted Umbridge in a certain class, questioning her classroom order and teaching content, but was imprisoned by the pink toad, when he came back from Umbridge the next night At that time, there was a white wound that had just healed on his hand.

As soon as Harry returned to the common room, Ginny asked the toad what the content of the confinement was. Although Harry didn't want to worry Ginny and only said that the confinement was to write sentences, but the careful Ginny still She noticed something was wrong from the slight frown on Harry's brows when he held Harry's hand, and soon, she found the scar on the back of Harry's hand.

"Is that what you said you were punished for writing sentences?" Ginny looked very angry, her red hair was like a burning flame.Harry thought he vaguely saw a younger version of Mrs. Weasley. "That old hag! She's not normal! Talk to Mag about this situation!"

"No," said Harry without hesitation, "I don't want Umbridge to know that she's upset me, she'll be flattered. Besides, Professor McGonagall can't control Umbridge right now."

"What about Professor Dumbledore?" Ginny offered another option.

"No way, I haven't even seen him at school lately. And I feel like he's avoiding me. Guess it might have something to do with my bad hunger nightmares lately." Harry was a little frustrated.

"Well, it's fine if you don't want the professor to know. But your hands don't look like this." With that, Ginny pulled Harry towards the corner of the common room. "Hermione, Ryan, can you help me find out what happened to Harry's hand?"

Ryan and Hermione looked up from the pile of parchment, and saw the mark on Harry's hand.

"The confinement of that old woman Umbridge is to slash the back of your hand with a blade?" Hermione looked at the mark on Harry's hand in surprise. "Do wizards allow students to be tortured?"

"No, it's not." Harry waved his hand. "She just asked me to write with a black quill, and when I wrote, there were cuts on my hand, and the quill seemed to be written in my blood."

"At least this thing is likely to meet the definition of black magic supplies by wizards." Ryan said while pulling out his wand. "Extend your hand, let me take a look." Harry was a little unhappy, he didn't want to show the wound to his companions, because he felt that it would make him appear weak.But in the end, he couldn't help but was pulled by Ginny and stretched out his hand.

"Light of Elendil." Ryan tapped the wound on Harry's left hand with his wand while chanting a spell in Elvish, a silver-white light full of vitality enveloped Harry's left hand.Under the silver light, a faint black mist floated out from the back of the hand, and then quickly melted in the silver light.

"It's a very ingeniously made black magic item." After Ryan finished speaking, he took out a ceramic box and threw it to Ginny, "Give Harry this on his wound, and the wound will heal quickly, and there won't be any damage." sequelae."

"It's ingeniously made? Where did you know that?" Ginny opened the lid, and found that the box was filled with a green paste like emeralds, and had a nice smell, so she used her little finger to stir up a little bit of my paste. on the back of Harry's hand, asked at the same time. "Wizards have a lot of magic items that can leave wounds on each other without touching each other. My father encounters several of them every year."

"No, this one is different." Seeing that several people present were staring at him curiously, Ryan decided to explain. "General black magic props will have an obvious black magic reaction, and even the premature wounds of these props will have the same black magic reaction, but Harry's wound does not have that obvious reaction."

After finishing speaking, Ryan said to Harry: "Is it true that every time you finish writing a sentence, the wound on the back of your hand will heal quickly, leaving only a little pain, but this pain will accumulate slowly until you end the confinement. The pain has accumulated unbearably."

"No, I can bear it." Harry focused on an inexplicable point, and Ryan looked at him helplessly.Immediately he realized what said, "Yeah, that's what happened to me."

"Then this kind of reaction means that the black magic pen made by Umbridge probably has a magic similar to the healing spell on the outer layer, so it covers up the fluctuation of black magic power inside. If the average person does not destroy the quill pen, it will be The black magic inside cannot be detected at all, and as the senior prosecutor of Hogwarts and the senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic, no one can conduct a destructive inspection on his magic items." Ryan explained in a low voice.

"Then can you find something from the origin of this pen, such as buying illegal dark magic products?" Hermione thought a little.

"There should be nothing to check." Ryan shook his head, "As far as I know, Umbridge is a very careful person. So she should not be caught in this regard. And I think it is very likely that this pen is She made it herself."

"How is it possible? Just her?" Harry let out a contemptuous laugh. "That old woman who only made us study has this level?"

Ryan also finally figured out why Harry and the others in the original book were so understanding that they still held their DA meeting as usual when they were inexplicably missing one person, because in Harry's mind, this person who had never shown his level of magic in front of everyone The person is probably the same as the Lockhart in the second grade, so naturally he didn't take her seriously.

"Don't look down on Umbridge. It is true that her ability to climb to this position is inseparable from her scheming. However, it is impossible for a person who only knows how to flatter someone to climb from the lowest employee of the Ministry of Magic to this position today. " Ryan saw that Harry and the others still had expressions of disbelief, so he broke the news. "According to the information I collected before, Umbridge can conjure up a physical Patronus in the shape of a cat."

"Merlin!" "It's unbelievable." Harry and the others widened their eyes in surprise when they heard the last sentence.Especially for Harry, as a wizard who can conjure a physical Patronus, he knows how difficult it is.

"Then why doesn't she show her magic? I've never seen her show her magic." After a few seconds of silence, Ginny asked her inner question, because wizards would respect those powerful Man, if Umbridge had shown his level of magic, there would probably be a lot less resistance than there is now.

"Because she knows that she entered Hogwarts as a member of the Ministry of Magic. In this case, she must use her identity to the extreme. If she uses magic, she will put herself on the front line of confrontation, umm Rich is an extremely selfish person. She falls for Fudge only because Fudge can bring her benefits, so she will not give everything for Fudge."

Speaking of this, Ryan used the wand to dissolve the remaining black magic power in Harry's other hand, and then put away the wand and said to Ginny and Harry. "Alright, the wound on Harry's hand has been healed, but I personally suggest that it's better not to irritate Umbridge as much as possible recently, because we have more valuable things to do than vent our emotions."

"What you said makes sense. I will try my best to control myself." When Ginny was helping Harry apply the medicine, Harry turned his head and said solemnly.
