Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 221 Nightmare Omen
OWLs are the most important exams in Year [-], and they are for everyone.There are a total of twelve courses, each of which needs to be tested for a whole day, with theory in the morning and practice in the afternoon. Not only the professor invigilates the exam, but also the staff of the Ministry of Magic, which is very strict.

Candidates take the exam according to their own course selection. For the vast majority of students, they can get one to two days of rest to adjust their status, but for Hermione who chose all the courses, these two weeks except You can relax and relax on Sunday, and you have to take the exam every other day.

The first week is basically a compulsory course. The topics of Charms, Transfiguration, Herbalism, and Defense Against the Dark Arts are all very difficult, and they are completely different concepts from the final exam.There was Ancient Runic Studies on Friday Harry didn't take, but there was Divination on Saturday, which he took.

I finally took a break on Sunday, and before my chaotic brain fully recovered, I started the exam for the next week.Potions, Care of Fantastic Beasts, Astronomy and Muggle Studies, Friday is Arithmancy.I was able to rest for two days, and finally recovered.

Saturday is the last exam, History of Magic.This was arguably Harry's worst subject, in fact he had hardly been sober in Professor Binns' class for five years.

There is no practical part of History of Magic, so the time is set for the afternoon.When he got up in the morning, Harry wanted to crawl back to bed after breakfast and sleep again, but considering the miserable results he might get, he decided to hug the Buddha's feet.He forced himself to hold Hermione's thick notebook and read it all morning. When he came to the examination room in the afternoon, he was dizzy.

After the invigilating professor announced the start of the exam, Harry stared blankly at the questions on the test paper, and suddenly found that he couldn't understand each of them. He seemed to know the answer, but also didn't seem to know, and his mind was completely messed up.

He heard the rustling sound of a quill in his ear, and he raised his head to see Hermione not far in front of her answering the question seriously, while Ron was plucking his hair frantically.

Looking back at the test paper, the quill began to write on it.But in fact, he himself didn't know what he had written. In his impression, Hermione's notebook had more content about these topics than what he had written.

Dazed, Harry finally finished the last question.Heaved a sigh of relief, raised his head, looked at the hourglass on the podium, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he found the familiar black corridor in front of him.

Going forward along the corridor, through a series of doors, he came to the place full of crystal balls again.This time I didn't see Ike, it was two other people.

One was covered in a black robe, only showing a hand holding a wand.The other fell to the ground, blood-stained, and struggled painfully from time to time.

"Deep to the bone!"

"what!"

"Lord Voldemort is waiting..."

"Unless you kill me!" The people on the ground raised their heads, and it was the face of Sirius!

Harry yelled loudly, but the two men didn't hear him at all.The standing one was still torturing Sirius with the Cruciatus Curse, and Sirius still held on firmly.

Suddenly, as if someone had bumped him, Harry woke up with a start.Opening his eyes, he found that he had returned to the examination room.

Before I knew it, the exam time had come, and Hermione and Ron were beside me with anxious faces.

"What's wrong with you, buddy, do you want to go to the school hospital?" Ron asked softly.

"No... I'm not going..." Harry patted his head hard, trying to wake it up.

"It doesn't look like it's going to be all right..." said Ron.

"I'm fine...no, Sirius..."

"Sirius? What's wrong with Sirius?" Hermione asked suspiciously, but suddenly realized, and asked seriously, "What did you dream about?"

Harry finally regained consciousness and looked around. There were only six people left in the examination room.He, Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Neville, and Luna, without those nasty investigation teams.

"Voldemort has captured Sirius!" said without hesitation.

"what?"

"how come!"

Everyone was shocked, their faces full of disbelief.

"I saw it, just now, during the exam," Harry said.

"Where? How did you catch it?" Ron asked anxiously.

"Department of Mysteries, I told you..." Harry stood up abruptly as he spoke, but his head was dizzy and he almost fell. He quickly put his hands on the table in front of him, "He wants to use Sirius to get That crystal ball, for which he was torturing him, using the Cruciatus Curse...and killing him!"

"We're going to save him!"

"Harry!" Seeing that Harry was about to run out staggeringly, Hermione stopped him directly.

"Calm down!" Hermione pulled Harry back, "Are you sure Sirius was captured?"

"Of course! I'm sure!" Harry said anxiously after trying to break free several times without success, "I won't be wrong! It's the same as Mr. Weasley's last time!"

"Then make sure, Harry," said Hermione. "It's five o'clock in the afternoon, and the Ministry of Magic is full of working people. How could they go in without being noticed? It doesn't make sense!"

"I don't know, maybe it's the invisibility cloak, or maybe it's something else... That's Voldemort, he must have a way..."

"Harry's right, I think," interjected Ron, "after all, it was the same way Dad... last time."

"Then make sure!" Hermione glared at Ron. "At least ask to see if Sirius is in Black's old house."

"Yes, yes, let's do it..." Harry was persuaded, "Go to Umbridge's office, we have to go there!"

"We need a plan." Hermione said, she looked at Luna, Ginny and Neville next to her and said, "This needs your help, lure Umbridge away again, keep watch, don't let those annoying people guy found out."

Hermione told several people about her plan, and everyone agreed.Then, they rushed out of the examination room.

Harry immediately returned to the dormitory, found the invisibility cloak and Sirius' knife and left quietly.The dormitory and the common room were full of people relaxing after exams. They were discussing having a big party at night, and they didn't notice Harry's departure at all.

In just 2 minutes, he came to the corridor where Umbridge's office was located, where Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Luna and Neville had long been waiting.

Ron left first, he was going to find Umbridge and lure her away.Ginny, Luna, and Neville stood guard on both sides of the corridor, pushing as many people out as possible.Hermione and Harry put on their invisibility cloaks, and when the corridor was almost gone, Harry pried open the door with Sirius' knife.

Ignoring the portraits of cats and cats all over the room, Harry went straight to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of Floo powder and threw it in, while sticking his head into the dancing flames, and shouted: "12 Grimmauld Place! "

His head was spinning so fast it made him nauseous.But it wasn't long before he found his head in the dirty fireplace of Black's old house, facing the cold kitchen.

"Sirius! Sirius!" Harry shouted loudly, but he didn't get a reply from Sirius for a long time.

"Master is out." A voice sounded, and Harry hurriedly followed the sound, and saw Kreacher's ugly face.

"Where did he go? Where is he?" Harry shouted, but Kreacher didn't answer, just sneered.It made Harry angry, but he couldn't care less now.

"Where's Lupine? Mad-Eye? Is anyone there?"

"There is only Kreacher here, no one else!" Kreacher was very happy, jumping and turning in circles and was about to leave
"Where did Sirius go? Did he go to the Department of Mysteries?" Harry shouted after Kreacher left.

"Master won't be back from the Department of Mysteries! Kreacher can be alone with Mistress again!" Kreacher kept walking, and disappeared directly into Harry's eyes.

"You!" Harry shouted angrily, but before he could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in the top of his head.It was an uncomfortable spin again, and when he opened his eyes again, there was Umbridge's pale face with a terrible smile in front of him.
