Hogwarts: This wizard wants to make progress too much

"He didn't go out with you today?"

These two have always been inseparable, but recently I seem to see Harry alone often, except during class, I never see him.

"He's probably practicing spells!"

"Ron has been very diligent lately, he doesn't even play wizard's chess anymore, he practices spells alone until very late every day."

"He's been like this since he was hit by his own rebounded magic last time, maybe it's a good thing, he's willing to learn now."

Harry was quite happy, Ron knew how to work hard, and he was embarrassed to play along, so he studied together, and his grades have been pretty good recently, and he passed the last small assessment smoothly.

It's just that Ron seems a little distant from him, but it's not exactly distant!

It's more like he's avoiding me.

"Ron is actively practicing magic?"

Ethan looked at Harry in disbelief, was this a joke? Is Ron that kind of person?

But thinking about it carefully, Ron hasn't lost any points recently, whether it's Transfiguration or Charms, or even Potions, although he hasn't gained any points, he doesn't seem to have made any jokes.

"That's right, maybe he wants to take revenge on Malfoy!"

"Has Ron had any changes recently?"

"He eats a little more, and he's a little thinner, and he had a bad cold a while ago, it was quite serious, I think that's it!"

Although he didn't know what Ethan was asking, Harry told him honestly.

"Alright! I just feel like Ron isn't someone who would study."

"Also, if you want to donate Nimbus 2001s to Gryffindor, you can only give the Gringotts key to Hagrid and let him help."

"Yeah, I know, I'll go find Hagrid when the rain stops."

"I'm going back to the dormitory to take a shower first, I feel sticky and uncomfortable, I'll go eat later."

Harry still trusted Hagrid very much, even if he entered his vault, he wouldn't steal his money.

……

"Ethan, I finally found you."

At the Ravenclaw long table, Cedric grabbed Ethan and dragged him out.

"Where are we going?"

"To the Hufflepuff common room, the house-elves have already made the hot pot, if we eat it and it's okay, we'll prepare hot pot for the Halloween feast."

Walking on the way to the Hufflepuff common room, Cedric explained to Ethan.

"It's a success?"

Ethan hadn't been to the Hufflepuff common room since the beginning of the semester, and he really didn't know about this situation.

"I ate it once last week, it tasted pretty good, I'm here specifically to find you, Nellie said she wants you to comment on it."

Nellie was the house-elf who asked Ethan for some hot pot base, and the hot pot recipe was mainly developed by him.

Ethan also told him about many other soup bases, not everyone likes spicy food.

And some dishes, Ethan also told him, I haven't seen him for so long, I don't know what tricks Nellie has come up with.

After Cedric knocked on the barrel, Ethan took the lead in entering the Hufflepuff common room.

Then Ethan was stunned, it was so misty that he couldn't even tell who was sitting in front of him, and it was especially stuffy.

Without any other way, Ethan could only use other small uses of the Weather Charm to gather these mists, collect them, and turn them back into water.

After regaining his vision, Ethan knew why this was happening, there were more than a dozen cauldrons used to cook hot pot here, and the Hufflepuff little wizards were sitting all around, in the case of no ventilation, the water mist could not escape.

But wouldn't this cause hypoxia?

"Ethan, that move was really cool!"

York, who is now a sixth-year prefect, gave Ethan a thumbs up with a flushed face.

They also wanted to solve this problem just now, but found that there was no other way except ventilation.

But the Hufflepuff common room is on the first floor underground, unless the door is opened and the smell is spread throughout Hogwarts.

In the end, this idea was rejected.

"Mr. Adrien, this way please, it's already prepared for you."

The house-elf Nellie ran over immediately when she saw Ethan.

Nellie was very enthusiastic about this little wizard who respected her and taught her how to cook.

"Okay!"

Sitting with Cedric in the position prepared by Nellie, he found that the dishes were much richer!

In addition to the beef and mutton from last time, there were also beef balls, shrimp paste, and tripe made with magic.

Ethan's hot pot was still spicy, but he saw that there were also mushroom soup and tomato soup bases next to him, and the dipping sauces were also richer, it seemed that the house-elves had made all of these.

Ethan dipped the cooked mutton rolls in the prepared sesame sauce, the taste was really good.

Even if he opened a store outside, this wouldn't be a problem.

"Nellie, it's delicious, I believe that if you prepare hot pot for Halloween, you will definitely win the love of the little wizards."

Ethan gave his evaluation, and Cedric was still eating in big mouthfuls, with no intention of speaking at all.

Eating hot pot at the Halloween banquet feels a bit mismatched, but the Hogwarts dinner is just sitting and eating a meal, there are no activities, the little wizards might be very happy to eat hot pot.

It's just that Snape might be a little uncomfortable.

Chapter 102: Failed Patronus Charm

Inside the Room of Requirement, Ethan looked at the few people with a serious expression.

"In the next period of time, don't run around, it's best to walk in pairs inside Hogwarts, and don't come to the Room of Requirement, I'll send you back to the common room later."

"What happened?"

Hermione frowned and looked at Ethan.

He said it so seriously, as if something big was about to happen, and it was still the dangerous kind.

But this is Hogwarts, known as the safest place in the British wizarding world.

Dumbledore is also the greatest wizard of this era, according to what I saw in the books, even when Voldemort was at his most rampant, he didn't break in.

I really can't figure out what dangers can be encountered inside Hogwarts.

But you never know, Lockhart's magical accidents, Seamus's exploding magic, these are still somewhat dangerous.

"As you know, I often go to the Forbidden Forest and have a good relationship with the magical creatures inside, the Acromantula told me that a monster has entered Hogwarts, and its offspring are very scared and have fled Hogwarts."

It can basically be determined that the Basilisk has been released, and the person who released the Basilisk is likely to be Ron, otherwise it is impossible to explain these recent changes in Ron.

Unless there is external force involved, otherwise would Ron actively study?

It's just unclear why Ron would get Ginny's diary.

The message was indeed told to Ethan by the Acromantula.

The rain stopped yesterday, and this morning was cloudy. Ethan cast a few spells on himself and went to the Forbidden Forest, where he was informed of this news by the Acromantula.

The Acromantula colony also has some little ones. The newly born little spiders like to run around and are not very dangerous. It's normal for them to run to Hogwarts, but they were all scared out the day before yesterday.

The Basilisk is the natural enemy of the Acromantula. As long as its aura appears nearby, the Acromantula can sense it.

The little spiders only felt fear, but Aragog knew what was going on. His natural enemy, the Basilisk, had appeared again, so he told Ethan the news.

Logically speaking, Ethan should be able to hear the Basilisk's voice like Harry, after all, they both have the ability of Parseltongue.

But Ethan just hasn't heard any strange and weird whispers.

As far as the Basilisk is concerned, as long as Ethan is careful not to see its eyes, it is not a threat. He could even send it to its doom with a single Gungnir.

But for Penelope and the others, it would be fatal. Even if they are not petrified, they may not be able to escape if they encounter it.

Take Penelope as an example. She learned Mjolnir from Ethan, but she didn't master it well. Now it's difficult to even gather a hammer. She can only form a ball of lightning. It's still a bit difficult to blast a Basilisk with extremely high magic resistance.

Harry was able to solve the Basilisk completely because of the protagonist's halo. First, he didn't see the Basilisk's eyes, then the Basilisk's eyes were blinded by the phoenix, and he also got the Sword of Gryffindor, which can cut iron like mud and can grow.

Finally, he was poisoned by the Basilisk venom, which even the soul in the Horcrux could not resist, but nothing happened in a short time, and he could wait for the phoenix to detoxify him.

If it was someone else, he would have died eight hundred times over.

"Monster?"

"What monster has entered Hogwarts?"

Hermione looked at Ethan with a curious expression. She knew that Ethan wouldn't joke about this kind of thing.

In addition, sometimes humans can't perceive things, but that doesn't mean animals can't.

Hermione knows that in the Muggle world, animals have omens before many major events happen, it's just that humans may not be able to notice these omens.

"Anyway, it's not simple. It can make a XXXXX-level Acromantula feel scared, so just listen to my arrangements during this time."

Ethan didn't want to explain too clearly, just let them know that there was danger. If they wanted to know more, they could check the information, as for whether they could find what the Acromantula was afraid of, Ethan didn't know, anyway, there is no mention of Acromantula being afraid of Basilisk in any Fantastic Beasts books.

"Alright, just listen to Ethan. Be honest during this time. Or do you think you can deal with a XXXXX-level Fantastic Beast? Win against Onyxia, who is still a baby, first!"

Seeing that Hermione still wanted to ask something, Cassandra directly choked her words back into her stomach.

It's good to know that there is danger and avoid it. Asking more won't solve the problem. Besides Ethan, no one can deal with XXXXXX Fantastic Beasts. Just Onyxia alone can rub a few people on the ground, let alone stronger ones.

Although Hermione's character is a little better than in the original book, she still likes to be serious and wants to get to the bottom of everything.

"Cassandra is right. Fifty years ago, a student died at Hogwarts, and even earlier than that, not to say that students died accidentally every year, but this situation was not uncommon."

Myrtle is from Ravenclaw, and her death is recorded in the Ravenclaw library, so Penelope naturally knows about it.

In the Ravenclaw library, there are books that record what Hogwarts used to be like, which is far worse than when Dumbledore is the headmaster now.

Peeves recklessly caused damage in the castle with a musket, and the administrator used severe torture on students who violated the rules, the kind that could cause psychological shadows on young wizards.

Although there is no Dark Arts class, the Dark Arts are quite popular in Hogwarts, and bloody conflicts are common. Here, a certain headmaster should be named.

There was even an incident where a whole dormitory of Gryffindor wizards ran into the Forbidden Forest to explore, and as a result, they encountered poachers who abducted several wizards.

"Well, just listen to Ethan. Don't come here recently."

Hermione wanted to cry but had no tears. She just asked a few more questions, why doesn't even Cho Chang stand on her side now?

After simply instructing a few words, Ethan and Penelope came to the side, ready to watch Penelope practice the Patronus Charm.

Ethan still really wanted to learn this spell, but after experimenting a few times, he couldn't even release the basic white mist, so he gave up.

Now that Penelope is starting to practice, Ethan is going to see if there is anything worth learning from.

Ethan clearly remembered that Umbridge, that pink toad, could use the Patronus Charm, and it was just a cat.

This also shows that people whose hearts are not pure and are easily influenced by negative emotions can also succeed. He just has a higher talent for Dark Arts, why can't he do it! (The standard is not easy to determine, Umbridge can, but Snape is the only Death Eater who can use the Patronus Charm, because of his love for Lily, other Death Eaters can't learn it.)

The Patronus Charm is usually related to the Animagus form, such as Professor McGonagall's cat, James Potter's deer. (Others who can use the Patronus Charm have not used Animagus, and those who have exposed Animagus have not used the Patronus Charm.)

Ethan also wants to determine his Animagus form through the Patronus Charm.

"Expecto Patronum!"

A strong silver-white smoke emerged from the tip of Penelope's wand. After lasting for more than a minute, it was actively dissipated by Penelope.

"Still no good!"

Penelope was a little frustrated. The difficulty of this Patronus Charm is still too high. The second stage of condensing the entity is always a little short.

She is already in sixth grade. In addition to ensuring her studies, she also needs to improve her strength and obtain more capital.

Although Ethan said that he could let her fulfill her wish and enter the Ministry of Magic, Penelope also wanted to improve herself.

The Patronus Charm is a very suitable magic, because of its difficulty and the positive representation, those wizards who can summon a physical Patronus are often recommended as high-level officials of the Wizengamot and the Ministry of Magic.

"At least you have completed the first stage, and I still have no clue."
