I'm a priest at Hogwarts

Chapter 27 Unforgivable Curse

In the days that followed, Orlando became extremely honest, looking at the alchemy furnace every day, or making some delicious medicinal meals in different ways.When the weather is good, I will push the old wizard out to bask in the sun. When it is cold, I will accompany the old wizard by the fireplace and tell some jokes to make the old man happy.

The old wizard wasn't really angry, he was just worried that his apprentice was eager for quick success, greedy for success, and lost his life in the end. Seeing that his apprentice was truly repentant, he forgave him. Not enough for a fraction of him, is it inevitable to have some impulses?

When it came time to collect the pills, Orlando began to feel apprehensive. After all, this was the first time he had used a thousand-year-old elixir to refine the pills, so it was inevitable that he would feel a little nervous.

"Master, can you open the alchemy furnace?"

"Wait a little longer, wait until the alchemy is no longer condensed, and then open it again. It's only a sixth-grade alchemy now, so don't worry." Orlando rubbed his hands, saying that he was not in a hurry, and he was scratching his itch in his heart anxiously.

After another hour, the elixir of the pill furnace was no longer rising, and the eighth-grade elixir was half-opened, and then the follow-up was weak. It can be said that this furnace of elixir has reached the top grade, and it can be regarded as a success.

You must know that the pills are of the ninth rank, one to three is the low rank, four to six is ​​the middle rank, and six to nine is the top rank, and now this furnace soul suppressing pill has seven and a half ranks, which is already considered a rare high rank.

"Open the alchemy furnace."

Without Capri's help, Orlando unscrewed the lid of the cauldron with one hand, and saw the fluorescent light in the pill furnace, and a batch of high-grade soul-suppressing pills were freshly released from the furnace.

He took out the medicine bottle made of high-quality Hetian jade that he had prepared earlier, and put the pills in them one by one. There were as many as 52 pills. With a bottle full of pills, Orlando was overjoyed, and gave it to the teacher as soon as possible. past.

"Teacher, how do you feel?"

After taking the soul-suppressing pill, Orlando keenly noticed that the soul eroded by the power of time in the teacher's body began to improve, but he still asked a question with concern.

"It's much better, disciple. This method should be the method of the Danding School of Eastern Taoism. How did you learn it?"

"I don't know the teacher either. I read it from a book. I don't know if it is the Danding school or not."

"The magic of the Eastern method is very mysterious. Unfortunately, the world has changed. Many Taoists have declined, but there is no shortage of great powers. In the future, I will try not to reveal this kind of method in front of people, otherwise it will cause death."

"Understood, teacher. I will be careful in the future."

Nicole Flamel nodded, this apprentice didn't pay in vain, he did his best to heal himself, and he was willing to take great risks.

"With your elixir, I don't think it will be a big problem to live another 50 years. If you want to do something, just go ahead and do it. The teacher is your strongest backing." The wizard has returned to his previous all-powerful figure.

"Teacher, what you said seems to be wishing for your apprentice to cause trouble everywhere."

"Hahaha, I'm afraid that you will be bullied." The old wizard patted Orlando's hand and said dotingly.

"Teacher, I will stay with you for a few more days. These days, you take a soul-suppressing pill every day. I will go back to school when your condition is stable. The final exam is about to come. Besides, the Philosopher's Stone is still in school. I have to go see it." Keep it in order to avoid being stolen."

"Hahaha, you little clever ghost, you must be thinking about the Philosopher's Stone."

"Hehe, who told me to be your heir, teacher, since it is mine, I must take it seriously."

"Okay, up to you."

As the old wizard's health improved day by day, the laughter in the castle gradually increased. Yuri was completely convinced of this little master. Who would have thought that such a child in his teens would make the old wizard The incurable disease was cured.

Taking advantage of these few days, the old wizard began to teach the profound meaning of Orlando's soul spell. From the old wizard's point of view, everything has a soul, which can be taken away or given, just like the armor mechanism he made, which is given by him After gaining the soul, not only can he easily understand the instructions, but he is also extremely loyal.

Orlando studied earnestly, Nicole Flamel taught with great care, the disciple is too good, sometimes it will make the teacher distressed, no, the disciple who comprehended by analogy accidentally learned the three major black magic derived from soul magic - soul-snatching Curse, Cruciatus Curse and Killing Curse.

These three spells directly act on the soul. Once the caster is hit by the spell, the spell will irreversibly damage the soul of the caster. This irreversible spell is extremely vicious, so why is it called unforgivable? curse.

Ordinary wizards must use a magic wand and fixed spells to learn the Unforgivable Curse. Only soul attribute wizards can cast spells without a magic wand, killing people invisible.

The old wizard repeatedly warned Orlando not to use the Unforgivable Curse unless it is an emergency. In his words, when the spell affects the soul of others, it will also affect itself. Excessive use of black magic will eventually lead to distortion of the mind and degeneration of the soul. .

Orlando was thoughtful. Buddhism talks about cause and effect, and Taoism talks about responsibility. They are all explaining a truth, which is the reincarnation of heaven. Thinking of this, Orlando nodded emphatically.

"Teacher, I understand. I will restrain myself, always be kind, and use power with caution."

Nicole Flamel nodded, and Lao Huai said with satisfaction, "Go, you are still young, you can't always hang out with me, an old man, you should go back to school, come and see the old man when you are free. Of course, if you are If someone bullies you, you must tell me that although the old man is old, he cannot be bullied by anyone." Finally, he said loudly.

After cleaning up briefly, Orlando took Capri back to Hogwarts. It was time for dinner. Orlando asked Capri to stay in the school kitchen, and he went down from the castle to the auditorium. At this time, the students eating dinner.

When Orlando appeared at the Gryffindor table, there was a burst of exclamation.

"Orlando?"

"It's him."

"Isn't it said that he went to study further?"

"It should be back from further studies."

"It is rumored that the International Federation of Magic will award him the Order of Merlin's Order of the Third Class Magician?"

"It's not a rumor, it's a fact. The Daily Prophet has already reported it."

"Yes, the reporter has been here three times, and I saw her interview Professor McGonagall."

Orlando is also at a loss as to what the situation is.Walking to Percy's side, there happened to be an empty seat here, Percy moved his body hastily, "Orlando, is it really you?"

"It's me, Percy, long time no see."

"Where have you been these days? Professor McGonagall said that you went to study, is it true?"

"Well, I have a teacher and I have been studying with him recently."

"Really, is what's written in the Daily Prophet true?" At this time, the Gryffindor students gathered around, and the Weasley twin brother couldn't wait to ask.

"The Daily Prophet? What is it about?"

"The Order of Merlin, Third Class Witch Medal? The youngest recipient of the Order of Merlin?" Ron said impatiently.

"There's also the matter of quantifying that." Harry continued.

"It is to quantify the production of magic dispelling potions and discuss the standardized scale production of magic potions." Hermione added.

"Yes, this is it, is this true?" Harry was envious of the achievements of his peers.

"Well, it has been published. As for the medal or something, I don't know much about it. You must know that I have been isolated from the world these days and have never read newspapers."

"My God, you're amazing, Orlando," said a Gryffindor student in an exaggerated aria.

"Don't surround yourself here." At this moment, a cold voice came, it was Professor McGonagall.

The students dispersed, and Professor McGonagall came over and looked at Orlando with complicated and relieved eyes.

"Professor, okay, I'm back to sell my leave."

"Well, very good, Orlando, you are doing very well, hurry up and eat, Professor Dumbledore is waiting for you in the principal's office."

"Okay, Professor."

Orlando stopped talking, and took the time to eat. Although he can now absorb magical energy from the air, his body will still feel hungry. The title, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape.

After eating and drinking, knowing that Orlando's back kitchen elves hurriedly worked overtime, they delivered three batches of food, and finally filled Orlando's stomach. Capri, who was taken in by him as a servant, At that time, he was enviously surrounded by a group of Hogwarts house elves, listening to his bragging, especially after knowing that his master was about to become the youngest recipient of the Merlin Medal in history, his expression was extremely arrogant, as if it It's like winning an award, and then receiving envious compliments from all the house-elves. It was a pleasant day.

Putting down the knife and fork, Orlando hiccupped. He had never eaten so freely in the days of hiding in the hut. The main reason was that Yuri was too old, and he couldn't cook much food by himself, so he could only eat as much as he could. Instant food, baguettes and the like, it’s the first time this month that I’m free to eat dozens of delicacies like this.

"It's better than Hogwarts!" Orlando couldn't help but sighed while touching his chubby belly.

Although he had already gotten used to this big belly king, the Gryffindor students couldn't help but gasp when they saw it again.

"Orlando, you seem to have grown taller." The careful Hermione quickly noticed the change in Orlando.

"Well, it's a head taller." Harry said, gesturing his height.

"The skin turns white"

"Hair is getting brighter too."

"What magic beauty product did you use?"

A group of Gryffindor girls squeezed over and asked in a hurry.

Ron, who was squeezed out by the crowd, looked at Orlando enviously, and muttered, "Another little boy."

"Orlando is not a creamy kid, you know he fought a troll with his bare hands." Harry retorted.

"Yes." Hermione said unwillingly.

"I'm just talking." Ron was jealous.

Using the excuse of Headmaster Dumbledore, Orlando squeezed out of the crowd, and finally escaped from the auditorium. The three of Hermione chased after him.

"Orlando."

"Hermione, I have something to do with you." Orlando stopped in his tracks.

Harry and Ron surrounded the outside to prevent eavesdropping.

"Do you know Nicole Flamel?" Hermione asked.

"I know, and I also know that he is the greatest alchemist of our time, he is the one who forged the Sorcerer's Stone." Orlando asked the master in front of the students with a strange look on his face, and he really found the right person.

Harry looked around and said in a low voice, "Do you know what's hidden in the school?"

"what?"

"The Sorcerer's Stone." Ron said mysteriously, "Snape wants to steal it."

"It's wrong to doubt a professor for no reason, Ron."

"As we saw with our own eyes, he even threatened Professor Quirrell." Harry said excitedly.

"Although I don't believe that the professors at the school would do such a thing, this is the fact, Orlando." Hermione said with some confusion.

"Do you have any evidence?"

"No." Harry shook his head helplessly.

"What does that require of me."

"Could you please provide us with some amulets, we would like to night."

"Ron, it's against school rules to go out at night." Hermione interrupted Ron.

"Then what do you say, without the amulet, we are afraid that we will be eaten by three big dogs in one bite."

"There is no problem with the amulet. I will give it to you later, but I don't suggest you take risks. You can go to Principal Dumbledore."

"That's what I suggested too." Hermione felt the same way.

"Principal Dumbledore won't believe it. I told him about Snape, but he just doesn't believe it." Harry couldn't help complaining.

Patting Harry on the shoulder, Orlando said, "I will give you a surprise in the morning class tomorrow. Recently, I have gained a lot of mana. I will make some gadgets for you, just in case."

Orlando turned and left. Dumbledore was still waiting for him, but it was not good to make people wait too long.

Looking at the back of Orlando leaving, Ron asked curiously, "What do you think Orlando is talking about?"

"I suppose it's a rune?"

"It's a talisman, an ancient Chinese magic." Hermione corrected Harry's mistake.

"No matter what he is, Orlando is always so mysterious. I could tell on the train that he is not an ordinary person." Ron said plausibly.

"Yeah, it feels like a failure." Hermione sighed with some disappointment. She always thought that she was a genius, but in front of Orlando, her genius seemed so failed.

"What failed?" Harry asked.

"It's nothing, we have to work hard, and we can't fall behind Orlando too much."

"I think it's better to forget it. No one can compare to his eccentric talent." Ron curled his lips and gave up directly.

"That's right, it's too perverted. You can learn everything at once, and you still wear gravity charms every day, and you eat ten bowls of food. How do you compare?" Harry felt the same way.

"You are just lazy, make excuses for yourself." Hermione said angrily.

"Do you think Orlando will keep it a secret for us? Will he tell Snape?" Seeing that Hermione was about to start talking, Ron hurriedly changed the subject.

"No way, he's not that kind of person." Harry said with certainty, ever since the three of them worked together to defeat the troll and rescue Hermione, Harry had a very good impression of Orlando.

"That's right, how could Orlando be this kind of person, Ron, have you forgotten how he saved me?" Hermione had always been grateful to Orlando, and when he heard Ron say this behind his back, he suddenly became unhappy.

Ron rubbed his nose, feeling extremely embarrassed, he was at a loss for words, it seemed that this outburst was unavoidable.

Several people walked back all the way chattering.
