The Great Writers of Hogwarts

Chapter 8 "The Witcher", Fly Hope!

Andre quickly retrieved relevant memories in his mind.

His thoughts are like a falcon fluttering its wings, passing over the precious memories accumulated in the past 20 years.

Suddenly, the eagle flew across the vast wilderness of Skyrim Province, listening to the roar of the dragon from the top of the snow mountain.

Then, it dived into the mines of Moria again, and flew past under the flame whip of the Balrog.

Then, it flew deftly, flew out of the sweltering mine, burrowed into the ice and snow, and looked at the prince who pulled out the cursed blade in front of the throne with pity...

In the end, Andre's thoughts stopped on a tall witcher.

He has golden vertical pupils, a long scar on his left eye, long silver-white hair, two long swords made of silver and steel on his back, and the symbol of the white wolf on his chest.

"Geralt the White Wolf, the character in "The Witcher", the protagonist of the "Witcher" series of games..."

The quill in Andre's hand moved suddenly, listing Geralt's abilities as a witcher.

"Superb swordsmanship and physical fitness, his swordsmanship is famous for being able to block flying arrows, with gorgeousness, sense of speed and practicality."

"The medicinal formula accumulated by the demon hunters over the years is extremely useful, whether it is to enhance the lethality or its own vitality, and can be adapted to a variety of situations."

"The ability to cast spells without a wand. Demon hunters have the ability called the seal, which can be released with concentration and a gesture. The effects include impact, fire, control, protection, etc."

"..."

Andre examined the abilities listed on the parchment, and the more he looked at them, the more satisfied he looked.

Geralt is by no means the strongest among the many fantasy characters that Andre remembers, but for Andre's current needs, Geralt's ability is definitely the most suitable at present.

Perhaps in terms of height and depth, the witcher system is not as good as the world of Harry Potter.

But almost all of its abilities are born for killing and fighting. The so-called specialization in the art industry, this system can quickly make Andre form a fighting force.

There is not much difference between the two worlds, and the ability to extract Geralt will not be greatly lost.

After pondering for a moment, Andre made up his mind.

He picked up the quill and wrote the name of Andrzej Sapkowski, author of The Witcher, on the parchment.

"The next work to be published is "The Witcher."

As Andre penned, ink also poured out on the parchment.

"This pseudonym has been protected, and any extraordinary power will not be able to trace the host through this pseudonym."

"The current host can be protected under the pseudonym: 2/3."

At this time, the Lovegood house outside the door has fallen into silence.

Xenophilius shut him up in the workshop, preparing for the next issue of "The Quibbler". According to the usual practice, he would have to sleep and forget food for at least two or three days.

After temporarily getting rid of the annoying babbling sound of the "harassing horsefly", Pandora put lunch and dinner on the dining table for the family to take, and then went into the magic experiment again.

As for Luna, she has long been used to this rhythm of life, whether it is reading or playing, she can stay in the room all day long.

Feeling the silence in the house, Andre exhaled lightly, and his mood also calmed down.

Before he picked up his pen and started preparing for "The Witcher", his heart moved, and he looked out of the window to take a look at the flower pot he had just poured the "Evil Potion".

The Whomping Willow in the flowerpot still looked dry, and there was no abnormality in the slightest because of the potion.

This also made Andre completely relieved.

It seemed that until he got enough magic power, the "fel potion" brewed by Pandora could be poured into this flowerpot.

Only then did Andre continue to sit back at the desk, thinking about the issue of "The Witcher".

It's just different from the smoothness when he was pondering "Harry Potter", this time Andre's brows became tighter and tighter, and the quill in his hand did not write any words for a long time.

On the one hand, this is because the original work of "The Witcher" is more complicated in terms of narrative logic and length structure than "Harry Potter".

After all, "Harry Potter" was positioned as a children's book at the beginning, so it will naturally lower the threshold in terms of narrative as much as possible, and there will never be any obscure or difficult to read.Complicated settings in the original Harry Potter are very rare, and many settings are completed by J.K. Rowling and HP fans outside the original.

But "The Witcher" is different. From the very beginning, Andrzej Sapkowski created it in the tone of traditional fantasy novels, which contains a grand world view, involving kingdom forces and struggles between races. The depth of content is much more complex.

In terms of narrative logic, it has a lot of interludes and flashbacks, which is much more complicated.

If he wants to turn "The Witcher" into a masterpiece that can be enjoyed in the magic world, Andre will undoubtedly have to put in more effort and thinking.

On the other hand, stuttering and pain are the norm in the process of text creation, and smoothness in the adaptation of "Harry Potter" is rare.

At this time, Andre just returned to the normal state of the text creator.

He kept admonishing himself in his heart.

"A good beginning is half the battle.

"The Quibbler" is no better than the "Daily Prophet" where anyone can read anything casually. If you want to cause a sensation on "The Quibbler", just like the writer who wants to become a god on the street, the opening must be more elaborate.

You must not come up with an imperfect opening just because you are eager for quick success and rushing for a few days, that will directly lower the upper limit of the whole book. "

After taking a deep breath, Andre got rid of distracting thoughts in his mind, and sorted out the context of "The Witcher" bit by bit on the parchment, hoping to find an entry point that would catch his eyes.

The sunlight on the window sill gradually slanted and became dim red, then gradually changed into silvery white moonlight, and then climbed up to golden sunlight again.

Before I knew it, three days had passed.

The life of the Lovegood family is so peaceful. Except when they meet for dinner, everyone has a separate space of their own. Even the youngest Luna wanders in her own world.

Sometimes Andre sat in front of the window with a pen in his hand, looking at the scene outside, feeling as if he had passed away in a trance.

In fact, in the previous life, what he yearned for was just such a peaceful life, but he did not expect to get it after time travel.

However, on the evening of the third day, when Andre drew another mind map on the densely packed parchment, a cry from Xenophilius' workshop broke Lovegut's mind. The tranquility of the German family.

"finished!"

Xenophilius shouted excitedly.

"New issue of The Quibbler!"

Brandishing a freshly bound magazine, he made the announcement over the dinner table at Lovegood's house.

Both Luna and Andre opened the door to celebrate this day as usual, and even Pandora stopped her magic experiment and came to congratulate Xenophilius.

When the two of them looked at the magazine, there was a look of apprehension and anticipation.

If the sales of "The Quibbler" have not improved, Xenophilius can only give up his beloved "The Quibbler" to contribute to the "Daily Prophet" in order to inspire magic for Andre.

I am afraid that the name "The Quibbler" will also become history from now on.

Andre's gaze was full of enthusiasm and anticipation.

Whether or not the immediate problem can be solved depends on how much repercussions "The Quibbler" can arouse this time.

After taking a deep breath, Xenophilius stroked the head of a taupe owl vigorously.

It will be sent to the most remote parts of the UK, and it will have to start flying now to make it tomorrow morning.

Xenophilius fed the owl named "Hope" well, then let it go with a wave of his hand.

"Fly, hope!"

"Fly with the Quibbler!"
