I'm the paper king at Hogwarts

Chapter 210 Occlumency

Snape let out a sneer.

There was a lot of thunder and little rain. I thought that Louis could make some kind of Patronus, but I never expected that it would be over after a burst of blue smoke.

That's it?

Louis was also a little confused. He was obviously thinking about the happiest moment just now, so logically speaking, he should be able to make the Patronus come into being.

He couldn't help but fell into deep thought, don't I have Catherine in my heart?

So he thought from love to philosophy, from philosophy to science, from science to literature, and finally stayed on who I am, where I am, and what I want to do.

In the end, it was Snape who solved his doubts.

Maybe Snape couldn't stand the kid wasting his precious time.

"I think if you have a little bit of linguistics, you should be able to find out—"

Snape was halfway through his sentence, and he didn't seem very keen on trying to please Louis.

"You said it." Louis waited for a long time but did not wait for the next sentence. When he looked up at Snape, Snape froze there as if he had forgotten his lines.

Those who didn't know thought it was Sun Wukong who came and threw him a fixing spell.

"Your pronunciation is wrong, think about it yourself." Snape said a reason that Louis couldn't accept.

How can it be?This was Louis' first reaction. God damn it is a pronunciation problem. In this country, who's pronunciation is as good as mine?Our family accent is the pronunciation standard of England!

Wang Fa?Lao Tzu is Wang Fa!

But... He thought about it carefully, and it seemed, it seemed, probably, that he really pronounced the wrong pronunciation.

He inadvertently changed the "num" of "patronum" to "nam"...

Louis couldn't help feeling a little ashamed, quickly raised his wand, and cast the spell again.

"Expecto Patronum! (Call God to protect)"

*Congratulations on learning the special spell: Patronus Charm, current skill level: MAX
*Reminder: The Patronus Charm does not have proficiency and level, it is only linked to one's current mood.

This time, it was not only the misty mist just now, but also many silver filaments. Suddenly, a small bird flew out of the mist, flapping its wings and flying in the air. Louis always felt very strange. It looks familiar, but I can't remember what kind of bird it is.

On the contrary, Snape looked at the bird with a feeling of nostalgia.

After a while, he said, "Well... it's expected, Yanzi..."

Still a barn swallow.

Louis suddenly realized, no wonder he seemed to have seen it somewhere, it turned out to be a swallow...

I still remember the nursery rhyme I sang in my previous life, Little Swallow, wearing a floral dress, coming here every spring.

I asked Yanzi why you came here, and Yanzi said, take care of yourself first...

The memories of the dead were attacking Louis frantically, and he didn't even notice Snape's words "It's quite expected".

He controlled the patron saint swallow to fly around the room with a little rustiness, wondering why his patron saint was a swallow while flying.

To be reasonable, this doesn't match his painting style, it's not that he looks down on Yanzi, it's just that his painting style doesn't match.

It was Snape who solved the confusion for him.

"Back then, Emma...your mother's patron saint was the swallow." Snape thoughtfully looked at the swallow that was still flying.

It seems that there is such a trace of anger that he can't fight - angry that he can't fight, that he has failed the high expectations of the senior sister.

"My mother?" Louis controlled the swallow to fly to his hand and stood still, looking at the swallow and then at Snape: "Is it possible that the Patronus is also inherited?"

"Generally speaking, the shape of the patron saint varies from person to person, and it is related to the personality and physique of the wizard." Snape said slowly, "But I can't understand it, you..." He said, Looking Louis up and down, he continued with some disgust, "You little monster whose growth rate is as fast as that of Hagrid, why is the patron saint a swallow? Even from a genetic point of view, I can't tell..."

"I heard that the patron saint is not always the same. It will change when it suffers a big blow or changes in feelings." Louis said meaningfully. He didn't mean to say this, but intentionally.

Snape paused, glanced at him like a knife, and did not continue speaking.

"You can ask Ms. Liv when you go back." Snape pointed to Ye Ziyan: "Perhaps the wizard from the mysterious Eastern Kingdom can answer this question for you well."

"I will accept this suggestion, Professor." Louis waved his wand to disperse the Patronus Charm: "Okay, can we proceed to the second training now?"

"You mean Occlumency?" Snape snapped his lips, "I think you should start from the basics. In order to avoid the embarrassing things just now, I think it's necessary for me to teach the pronunciation of this spell."

"That's not necessary, Professor." Louis spread his hands, "It was just a beautiful accident just now, and you don't need to worry too much."

Lewis had learned in a book in the Restricted Section that Occlumency was a prerequisite for defeating the Legilimency lie detector abilities, using dubious practices like avoiding face-to-face or eye contact in the process.

"You'll be an excellent Occlumency master, Louis." For the first time, Snape did not spit venom, but praised Louis.

This is a bit of a mess for Louis, he is not a cheapskate, but he just feels that he doesn't quite understand what kind of medicine Snape's gourd is selling.

"Speak frankly, Professor, I am a little afraid of you."

Snape's eyelids drooped, he sneered and said, "Occlumency requires people to suppress certain emotions, but you, Louis, at your age, I have never seen such a joyous expression like yours. You are so angry, sometimes I even wonder if the smile you show is from the bottom of your heart."

"Why not?" Louis revealed a smile that he thought was kind.

"Look, just like now, your smile is fake." Snape commented: "You don't have to smile if you don't know how to smile, don't force yourself, Louis."

Louis: ...

After being speechless for a while, he said as if he suddenly remembered something: "According to what you said, I actually think Draco is extremely talented in Occlumency, and Harry should not have the talent for Occlumency.

You know, the problem with Harry is that his emotions are always too close to the surface and hurt too much in a way.But at the same time he can really feel how he feels about his own experience.He didn't suppress his emotions, he was very honest with them, and he couldn't suppress them, he couldn't suppress those memories.

And I think Draco is one of those people who has the talent to separate his life from his emotions, and he's always done that.He can shut down his pity and lock up his sympathy, so that he can effectively bully others. For example, in the first grade, he liked to make fun of Neville, if I didn't see it..."

"Okay, Louis." Snape said with a sneer, "You really can't see it? I don't think so, sometimes you really get too deep into the drama... Don't you just use the two of them... ..."

"Ahem..." Louis let out a violent cough, interrupting Snape's words.

"Okay, let's change the subject—do you really think I have this talent?" Louis asked with a smile.

Snape rolled his eyes in a classic old-man style: "For a British aristocrat like you who puts interests first in a moral vacuum, not learning Occlumency is the biggest waste."

"In addition, according to some books, Occlumency can effectively prevent being possessed by unknown beings." Snape added: "During the war long ago, wizards avoided being forcibly possessed by demons in this way."

"I see, Professor." Louis nodded, "How about... let's practice it now?"

"If you don't mind being read by me." Snape shrugged, as he had when speaking to Lockhart on the dueling ring.

"How could it be..." Louis grinned: "If you happen to read it, it can only be said that I am not good at learning, and I can't blame you..."

Before the words fell, Snape's wand was seen.

"Legilimency!"

"Occlumency!" Louis' eyes became blank, and he emptied his brain in an instant.

Occlumency with the Heart of Oak, Spirit Sword, and Eye of Griffon was pretty good, at least Snape put down his wand slowly.

"Not bad Occlumency, but a bit fake." Snape said with a half-smile.

"Huh?" Louis didn't understand what Snape meant: "Why do you say that?"

"Your head...just now..." Snape said with some distaste: "If a crooked demon opens your brain, you will definitely leave disappointed..."

"If you want to deceive someone who is using your Legilimency, you have to go beyond just emptying your brain." Snape's voice was still disgusting: "You have to learn to only block your emotions and part of your memory, and then simulate some' False', people can't see that you're lying, understand?"

"I understand a little bit." Louis said, and his eyes became blank again.

He hurriedly jumped back, reaching out his hand to stop Snape's movement: "Forget it, I won't bother you later, I'll just go back and practice slowly with Catherine..."

Just kidding, if you want to practice partial closure, someone will inevitably read part of the memory. For this matter, it is more reliable to practice with Catherine.

He didn't want his memory to be read by a middle-aged, greasy old man who didn't wash his hair, and he wasn't Harry...

Porter: Don't cue.

Seeming to be used to Louis killing donkeys, Snape waved his hand impatiently and kicked Louis out like a fly.

"By the way, professor." Louis poked his head back into Snape's office at the door.

"Say." Snape said succinctly.

"I think it's worth having Harry practice Occlumency," Louis suggested.

Snape didn't speak, just turned his head to look at him, the emptiness in his eyes made Louis feel a little chug in his heart for no reason.

Louis looked left and right, opened the door and walked in, turned around and closed the door, and said to Snape, "Harry's body...well, there is Voldemort's remnant soul..."

"How do you know?" Snape obviously didn't believe it.

"Dumbledore told me." Louis began to pull the tiger's banner: "You may not know, just before Voldemort went to Godric's Hollow to kill Mrs. Potter..."

Snape's gaze sharpened suddenly.

Louis said quickly: "After that, her ancient spell protected Harry, but when the Killing Curse rebounded, it also tore out a part of Voldemort's soul and possessed it on Harry. That's why Voldemort, staring at the back of Quirrell's head at the beginning of the year, gave me a headache."

Snape froze for a moment, seeming to believe what he said.

Louis struck while the iron was hot: "After all, professor, you don't want Harry to be controlled by Voldemort, do you? Think about it, if after Harry was controlled by Voldemort, he found a place where no one was in the underworld and killed him quietly, look at his pair of hands. In those beautiful green eyes, what on earth..."

"Stop talking." Snape pointed to the door, "I'll consider your opinion, now—please get out, Mr. Lewis."

Louis moved in a timely manner, leaving behind Snape who was still thinking about life.

Louis, who was walking on the road, called out the patron saint and flew around him chirping. Although there was no sound, Louis could clearly feel that the swallow was singing happily.

A skill that consumes ten mana points per minute is quite interesting to call out for fun. Louis, who is rich and powerful, doesn't care about this mana point at all.

Open the attribute bar to see, the mana value that is automatically restored every minute is almost two hundred, does the big business still care about this?

There was no one between Snape's office and his own office, so no one noticed his Patronus Charm. When they returned to the office, Ye Ziyan and Christassa happened to be playing wizard legends.

This is a very addictive game, and Louis stood beside the two of them for a long time without attracting their attention.

"Cough cough." Louis coughed, and the two women noticed the existence of Louis and raised their heads.

Ye Ziyan saw the Patronus of Swallows standing on Louis's shoulder, her eyes lit up, and she said in surprise, "Louis, you can summon the Patronus? This is... hey, this Patronus is the same as Sister Yu's! It seems that you really Her child..."

"What? Could it be that I was born to my mother?" Louis rolled his eyes. If I am not my mother's son, who else could it be?

"No, what I mean is." Ye Ziyan stood up and hooked Yanzi's virtual beak with his hand, "You inherited Sister Yu's blood, and that's why you can summon the patron saint of Yanzi."

"Aren't you kidding, Ye Zi." Louis looked down at the swallow, and then at Ye Ziyan: "Why didn't I see anything special about it?"

"Of course there is, this is not an ordinary swallow." Ye Ziyan turned his eyes and recited an ancient poem in a low voice——
