Natural Magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 179 Nico Flamel is really going to die

Another week passed in the blink of an eye, and today's Defense Against the Dark Arts class was conducted by Professor Lupine, who was very harmonious. Although Lupine was a Gryffindor student, his gentleness, humility and status as a professor still impressed the little snakes. With a hint of goodwill, at least she would not disobey him, so that when she met Snape later, Bree could feel the chill surrounding Snape.

"The weather has been going up and down these days, and I'm afraid it will get very cold in a while. Brie, I ordered two sets of wizard robes in France. You must like them."

Draco wore a Quidditch uniform and walked past Snape with Bree. He said: "Quidditch, Flint has finally graduated. I must win a championship for Slytherin." Come!"

Flint is the buck-toothed captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team who repeated his grade for Quidditch. He had a conflict with Draco last year, so much so that Draco quit the Quidditch team. This year, Germany Racco hopes to make one last effort for Quidditch, which he has loved for a long time.

"At least don't let Porter win the championship."

Draco said this, but Bree's attention was not on Quidditch.

"Is the wizard robe you just mentioned a Christmas gift?"

Christmas is coming, and just after this Quidditch match, Bree has been thinking about what gifts to prepare for her friends and professors for the past few days.

"Oh, there's no point in telling Christmas gifts in advance, Brie, don't fool me like you did two years ago."

"Haha, sorry Draco, I will prepare carefully this time."

"I hope so." Draco laughed too, but soon his face fell again.

"Look, it's Potter, and that stupid hair. Isn't the title of savior eye-catching enough?"

Harry was walking out of the hall with messy hair, accompanied by an angry-looking Hermione and Ron who kept talking to Harry.

"Harry, it's the first game soon. This is good news. At least the school didn't cancel the game because of Black." Ron said excitedly: "I also heard that there will be a Fantasy Game game in the future. I still want to participate, but the last championship was taken away by Diggory of Hufflepuff, damn it!"

Ron was so angry when he thought about losing the game that he was one step behind in the fantasy game and was deceived by the honest and honest Cedric into using a magic spell. But if he lost, he lost. He quickly cheered up. .

"I have studied Diggory's cards thoroughly. I will definitely win this time!"

Hermione heard Ron's words and retorted: "How can you be sure that Diggory won't have new cards?"

"Oh, stop joking. Can we go out? The answer is no. I have included the cards after he won the prize. I have a way to deal with it!"

"Hmph." Hermione snorted. She handed her backpack of books to Ron and said fiercely: "Read it for me, Weasley."

After saying that, Hermione hurriedly ran to catch up with Bree who was walking in front.

"Oh, look, what do you think of me?"

Ron held his backpack tightly and said dissatisfiedly, making Harry laugh out loud.

"That's pretty good, Ron, but Hermione still calls you Weasley...she hasn't forgotten what happened last year."

Last year in Quidditch, Ron gave Hermione the title of Mudblood, which made Hermione always resentful. Later, Ron wanted to make up for it, but as a macho man, he didn't know what it means to be submissive and gentle. He was groveling, which resulted in the current situation.

Ron intends to ease the relationship with Hermione, but Hermione just doesn't accept him, and Harry is in the middle of it, but he has nothing to do with the state of his two friends.

Here, Hermione trotted up to Bree and chuckled: "Hey, Bree, are you going to the stadium too?"

Bree nodded, looked at Hermione in a bright red outfit, and said unexpectedly: "Hermione looks very good. There are too few colors for little wizards in Hogwarts, they are all large black."

"Hmm." Hermione pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I came to see you for something."

Speaking of this, Hermione looked at Draco who was on the side, and said hesitantly: "The cards in my hand don't suit me now, I can feel that I should look for some cards that suit me, so as to strengthen my strength." Strength."

"When I used the fantasy game to practice magic, I could clearly feel the difficulty. I thought I could master it quickly."

"Granger, you have to learn to take it one step at a time. Magic is not that simple. You can turn around and look at that red-haired pig head. He may really only regard the fantasy game as a game and not delve into the magic in it. , this is not a game of chess. Over time, the more you get in tune with the cards, the more you will understand the magic in the cards, and that’s when the real card game begins.”

After Draco learned about the card game, he quickly discovered the secret. Of course, such a secret was not a secret. Many people knew it. It is conceivable how big the conflict of interests would be in the future.

This inevitably made Draco a little worried about Bree.

Feeling Draco's gaze, Bree shook her head slightly, signaling Draco not to worry.

Bree turned to Hermione and reassured: "It will take some time. I don't have any cards in my hand, but I can guarantee that we will go to Hogsmeade soon."

"Really?"

Hermione wondered.

"Of course, but you should go to training now, beautiful Miss Hermione. You must want to show off your talents on the court, right?"

"Well, okay then, I'll wait for Hogsmeade to open before changing the cards."

Hermione smiled. At this time, they had already walked to the stadium. There were many young wizards in the stadium. Because the competition was tight, the professors arranged for multiple colleges to use the stadium together, and they would allocate time for separate activities in the next few days. Train alone.

"I'm coming over too, Brie, just wait in the stands."

"Okay, Draco."

Bree walked to the stands. The weather has been good these days. The first snowfall of the past few days has melted. Although there is still a chill in the wind, the little wizards can ignore it after exercising.

"Good afternoon, Ode."

Cedric sat down next to Bree, also wearing a bright yellow Quidditch uniform, obviously going to be playing this year.

"To be honest, I thought sixth grade would slow me down, but I didn't expect to be busier than taking the wizard assessment in fifth grade."

Yes, this year Cedric is the grade leader, and he also competed for the position of vice-chairman of the Guardian Ode Club, and the vice-chairman of the Mirage Game Club some time ago, and the Quidditch game again these days.

It can be said that Cedric is excusable for not appearing in front of Bree during this period.

"It's better to be busy, otherwise you'll have to watch the fireplace in the lounge and count sparks in school." Bree teased, and at this time, Ravenclaw's Qiu Zhang flew past them on a broomstick. Yes, the rushing Quaffle almost hit them.

"Oh, nice girl!" Cedric sighed after seeing Qiu Zhang's skills.

Qiu Zhang stopped riding her broom in mid-air. When she heard Cedric's praise, she smiled with a red face and flew away on her broom.

Brie blinked. Why did he feel that Qiu Zhang's eyes were strange just now.

"Hey, Seid, was Qiu blushing just now?"

Cedric looked honest and honest, nodded blankly and said: "It seems so, but to be honest, you Easterners look particularly good when you blush, even when you are angry..."

Cedric, who didn't know what he was thinking of, blushed. When he saw Brie looking at him, he even turned his head away.

"Feel sorry……"

sorry for what?
Bree thought puzzledly, and then said what he thought when he saw Qiu just now.

"Maybe Qiu likes you, Seid. Look, she seems to be peeking at you again."

When Cedric heard Bree's words, he followed Bree's gaze and saw Qiu Zhang looking this way in his Ravenclaw team. When he saw Cedric looking over, he immediately turned around, Talk to your players.

"No, she looks normal, right?" Cedric said calmly: "Besides, I don't like Qiu Zhang either. I just think her oriental face is very pretty. Good looks and liking are not the same thing. the same……"

Cedric said lightly: "Maybe I don't want to have a relationship at Hogwarts, Bree... you are too young, only 13 years old, so you can't understand it."

"After I graduate, I will explore magical creatures. First I will visit Mr. Newt, and then I will travel around the world and write down every magical creature I encounter. Of course, I will be back almost by the time you graduate. I am very interested in adventure." Not loving it.”

Cedric spoke seriously, and he asked curiously, "What are your plans for the future, Bree?"

Bree leaned back and mused: "Maybe a professor, as long as I can tolerate the students' disobedience, haha."

Bree said, laughing to herself.

"This is just one of the ways. You know, I am an orphan from the Muggle world. I just want to have a place and be accepted in this world that does not belong to me."

"Perhaps I will also travel after graduation, but it should be the far east, China. I have an oriental face, and I want to see it." Go and see the world of An Qing in my memory, although this era is so It's not stable, but maybe this is a special obsession.

"Oh, China!" Cedric's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Why didn't I think that wizards know too little about China? I heard that it is very ancient and has countless magical creatures. Maybe I should set my target there!"

"Then let me help you find the way first, Bree, we don't even know about Huaxia's Magic Academy, if we can write it down, it will definitely be recorded in the book!"

"Maybe Hogwarts should have an extra textbook."

Cedric was very excited, chattering about his various arrangements for the future, his eyes full of longing.

It wasn't until the Hufflepuffs discovered that their captain was missing, and hesitated for a long time whether to come over and interrupt Cedric's conversation with Bree, that they came over to take Cedric away.

"Huh." Bree never knew Cedric could speak so well, as if he was going to fly to China tomorrow.

"The future...who can tell."

Bree thought about his current arrangements. He would not leave Britain so early. At the very least, he wanted to see Oded's name become famous in the British wizarding world.

"Between black and white, there is another kind of power, and that is balance."

……

In these lively days, the little wizards became visibly noisy, and the quarrels between the houses became more and more intense, especially between Slytherin and Gryffindor, with Draco and Ron being the most popular. .

"It's amazing, Draco. You almost got into a fight with Weasley today, and you were caught by Professor McGonagall and deducted five points."

"Humph!"

In the common room, Bree was sitting on the sofa drinking hot cocoa, and on the other side was Draco, who was having a stinking face at this time. After hearing what Bree said, his face was extremely dissatisfied.

"You're a Slytherin, Bree, don't speak for Gryffindor."

"I'm not being a clique, I'm thinking about Professor McGonagall. Look, you guys have made her miserable. If you don't keep an eye on her for a while, she can cause a lot of trouble."

Bree finally arranged things with Tom and had some rest time, but a lot of things happened inexplicably in school.

"Did Professor McGonagall look for you?" Draco affirmed: "I saw it all. You were called over by Professor McGonagall this morning."

"Yes, Professor McGonagall told me to take a good look at you." Bree did not hide anything and said bluntly: "Can you be more obedient and don't get too close to the savior during this period."

Draco snorted twice, as if he had planned it, and looked at Bree and said, "It's not impossible, but..."

"Hmph, you have to give me some high-level cards, and make one specially for my God-calling Guard!"

Tu Qiong saw that after Draco learned the Soul Guard, he often showed off in Slytherin, as if he was afraid that no one would know. He even asked Bree to teach him the Animagus...

"If you can survive tomorrow's game safely, I will consider giving it to you, but it will take some time. Mr. Nico Flamel is not in good condition recently. I have to go and see him."

Hearing Nicole Flamel, Draco stopped fussing. He still respected this legendary master alchemist, and respected that he was able to research such a great thing as a fantasy game with Bree when he was about to die.

"Didn't Nico Flamel's Philosopher's Stone be destroyed by Dumbledore? He has given up on immortality and is about to die, right?"

Bree nodded. Mr. Flamel's elixir had indeed been exhausted, and the dragon bone egg he had been nourishing with his soul was about to take shape.

"I will go back to Diagon Alley from the Corner Tower tonight. I will be back before the game tomorrow weekend."

"Oh, well, but you should know the consequences of not coming."

Draco snorted with a laugh, and became displeased when he saw Astoria Greengrass walking in from afar.

Astoria walked up to Bree and said a little shyly: "Old, can I ask you a favor? I want to buy a chuck, but Diagon Alley does not support Owl Express yet, and buying cards and Chuck is up for pre-order."

Fantasy games have become more popular recently, and demand exceeds supply, but both Bree and Tom feel that now is not the time to expand aggressively, as the purebloods are watching.

"For the sake of the box of chocolates on the train..." Looking at Draco's awkward expression, Bree said: "Maybe it can be used as a Christmas gift. Oh, I'm sorry, I told you in advance. I hope this won't happen. A gift turned out to be a bad one.”

"No, very good, thank you, Oded." After saying that, Astoria hurried back to her dormitory.

"Heh, it's not a Christmas gift if you said it in advance, idiot." Draco raised the corners of his mouth, but he still reminded Bree: "Don't get too close to this girl, he is an outlier from the Greengrass family, and her older sisters can't get too close." If you don’t like her, remind me to be careful.”
