In this Hogwarts without a savior

Chapter 316 314. Nick's Showoff
"Then if Gabriel goes to a magic school in the future, will the time of admission be calculated according to her soul age or her body age?"

Lily didn't give a clear answer to his question, she shook her head and said.

"There is no precedent for this, but if it is calculated according to Hogwarts' standard for normally recruiting 11-year-old students, it should be based on her mental age."

As they talked, Nick's gray body began to lighten noticeably.

The effect of the potion prepared by Lily was immediate, and the effect of petrification was being removed.

While waiting for Nick to recover, Lily did not forget to look at the Mandrake blade in Jon's hand and reminded him.

"If you plan to try to learn Animagus, you'd better do it under the guidance of Professor McGonagall. This kind of magic is very dangerous, and there are many failure cases in history."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention, Professor."

Although Jon agreed in this way, he actually had no intention of going to McGonagall.

After all, the Animagus form he wants to complete is different from that of a normal wizard, and there is no way to provide any help except for those who know the ring in his hand.

Soon, the changes in Nick's body became more and more obvious. The gray and white on his body had completely faded away, and the original frightened expression on his face gradually began to loosen, and his mind regained control over his soul.

After recovering from the petrified state, Nick floated up from the hospital bed immediately.

He looked at Jon with a smug expression on his face.

"17! I've been counting! There are 17!"

Even in petrification, he still maintained his perception of the outside world, and he knew exactly what he and Jon had experienced.

Lily tidied up the materials on the table, and was a little confused about the numbers that Nick said.

"17 what?"

Jon clutched his forehead.

"17 killing spells."

Hearing his words, Lily guessed what it was just by thinking briefly.

"You used petrified Nick as a shield?"

"Hey! Jon is simply a genius! The two of us cooperated perfectly. I will help him form an absolute defense, and he will attack! In that maze, we defeated countless opponents!"

Nick was visibly excited.

He doesn't mind the problem of being used as a shield to block the death curse. The ghost has already become like this. In front of the little wizard, he used it as capital to brag about.

Lily seems to have a strong desire to complain about Jon's whimsy.

"That's really beyond the imagination of ordinary people."

Nick, who had just recovered, was obviously agitated. According to his description, being petrified felt like being stuffed into an extremely small space, and he couldn't move anything all over his body.

After recovering, he couldn't stop floating in the air for a moment, then left Lily's office, and traveled around the temporary school.

Jon also bid farewell to Lily and left here. He waited until night and saw a full moon rising in the sky before putting the piece of mandrake into his mouth. In order to prevent it from being swallowed accidentally, It was also specially placed under the tongue.

However, Jon still underestimated the difficulty of learning Animagus.

This leaf was kept in his mouth for less than three days, and he accidentally ate it mixed with milk during a breakfast.

After drinking the milk, Jon was stunned. He clearly felt the feeling of the leaf that he had been holding for three days sliding down the esophagus.

Hermione, who was sitting next to him, saw something wrong with his face, and couldn't help asking curiously.

"what happened?"

Jon wasn't too discouraged, this was just the first step, and the leaves of the mandrake were not poisonous, so it wouldn't be a big deal even if he ate them.

"It's nothing. By the way, what were you talking about yesterday." He changed the subject.

Ron raised a copy of the Starlight newspaper in his hand.

"The Quidditch World Cup, which was originally scheduled for this year, was postponed. It is said that the final of the game was originally scheduled to be held in the UK, but obviously the current situation is not suitable. So they postponed the game to Next summer, if there is another accident, it is estimated that the venue will be changed."

Jon took the newspaper from him, and sure enough, he saw the news that the Quidditch World Cup was postponed.

This is something that cannot be helped. Judging from the current situation in Europe, the Quidditch match cannot be held even if it is not held in the UK. First of all, teams from the UK and France cannot participate, including Ireland, Spain, Switzerland, etc. have also been affected.

It would be safest to wait until next year, when the bet on the outcome of the Triwizard Tournament, which the whole of Europe is paying attention to, comes out, before considering whether to continue holding the tournament.

Hanton said with some regret.

"I also want to look forward to the teams in the World Cup showing their superb skills. It seems that we can only wait for next year."

When he was at Hogwarts Castle before, he was a little envious of the Quidditch matches played by the purebloods. Some time ago, he finally had the opportunity to really get started on a broomstick in Durmstrhamton.

And Ron is a fanatical fan. Even when Arthur was wanted, he secretly took his sons to watch some Quidditch League matches, told Handon about the deeds of many teams, and some Professional court technical moves.

Jon is not very interested in the sport of Quidditch.

Because he could fly directly without relying on a broomstick when he was in the first grade, so he cut off his attempt to play on a broomstick from the beginning.

"Nick will show off to everyone these two days about his experience with you in the North Pole."

Ron said enviously.

"It's a pity that we didn't go with us on the last trip."

"It's nothing to be sorry about, it's really too dangerous there." Jon shook his head and said, "It's more luck to be able to escape from there. If Nick happened to be petrified and could block the death curse, then I would say Maybe he gave up and brought Gabriel back with him long ago."

Jon was telling the truth, that kind of narrow space restricted him too much, if it wasn't for Nick, he would have been killed by the death curse.

After breakfast, Jon ran to Lily's office again, got a new mandrake from her, and put it in his mouth again.

This time he paid more attention, as long as he encountered using his mouth, he would deliberately press down on the blade. In the following days, Hermione and the others often felt strange because his accent became slurred.

　There is another chapter. It seems that the starting point is normal today.
