citrus hogwarts

After finally leaving the hospital, Hermione was still looking at her face worriedly: "Are you really okay?"

Kate was silent for a while, she had heard Hermione ask this question no less than ten times in this half morning alone.

"Gryffindor has herbal medicine class this morning, so hurry up and don't be late."

After finally sending people away, Kate ran all the way to the History of Magic classroom before the bell rang, so she was not late.

I originally wanted to ask Hermione to help me try the spell, but it seems that today may not work.

Who should she turn to?

Subconsciously looking at Malfoy who was obliquely ahead, she twitched, forget it, next one.

After finally finishing History of Magic get out of class, Kate packed up her books and quickly left the classroom, struggling to squeeze through the crowded corridor.

Let's try again with Harry. It was because of him last time that the Blue Bellflower Flame was upgraded two levels in a row. Maybe this time there will be unexpected results.

While thinking about how to speak, Kate squeezed, and finally squeezed into the classroom for the next class, but ran into an acquaintance head-on.

"Qiu Zhang, did you just finish class?"

Pulling him to the door of the classroom, Kate and Qiu Zhang were alone against the door frame. There was a bustling crowd outside and an empty classroom inside.

"Yeah, I don't have class later."

Qiu Zhang glanced at the friends who had been pushed farther and farther away in the crowd, then at Kate in front of him, and decided to value sex over friends: "Do you have anything to do with me?"

"This..." Kate thought for a while, "I've been practicing a spell recently, which is the one I showed at the Dueling Club last time."

Anyway, it's all practice. In fact, it doesn't matter whether it's Harry or Qiu Zhang, as long as it can achieve the effect of practice.

And compared to Harry, she felt more comfortable with girls.

After thinking for a while, Qiu Zhang remembered the blue flame that seemed to be alive that Kate released on the day of the dueling club: "That blue flame? Do you want me to help you try its power?"

"Well, I promise I will control it well, and there won't be a situation where I almost lost control like last time!"

Kate asked a little nervously, "Can you help me?"

"Of course, I also want to see how powerful it is."

Qiu Zhang nodded very cheerfully, and stretched out his little finger as he spoke: "Then make an appointment. This afternoon, I will wait for you on the lawn behind the school."

Do you still use pull hooks at this age?

Looking at her little finger strangely, Kate had no choice but to stretch out her hand, hook her up, and then said with a smile, "Then I'll leave it to you!"

"I am the one to thank you for giving me such a chance." Qiu Zhang blinked at her, and then turned to the direction behind her, "It seems that I have to go."

As she spoke, she turned around and squeezed into the crowd, not forgetting to turn her head and wave to her: "Then we have an appointment!"

"Yeah! It's an appointment!" Kate smiled back at her, and when she turned her head, she saw Hermione and the others walking in through the front door.

For some reason, Harry's eyes were a little straight, and he kept staring at the direction where Qiu Zhang left. He didn't look back until he could no longer see him, and coughed lightly.

"What did you have an appointment with Qiu Zhang, and you still haven't told us?" Ron leaned close to her and asked, winking.

Kate looked strange: "It's nothing, just let her help me practice the spell."

As he spoke, he sat next to Hermione who had been silent all this time.

I just don't know why, as soon as she sat down, Hermione moved the books on the table a little, as if deliberately trying to draw a line with her.

She leaned over to look at her strangely, and Kate blinked blankly: "Hermione, you don't look very well, are you freezing?"

Although places like the herb shed have magic to maintain a constant temperature at any time, they are not as warm as the inside of the castle.

Reaching out to hold Hermione's hand tightly, Kate raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Why is it so cold?

Before the class started, he quickly put her hands into his arms and rubbed them again and again. After finally warming up, he took out a bottle and lit the blue bellflower flame.

"Come on, it's not winter yet, you must keep warm," Kate paused, then smiled and winked at her, "You told me that."

Hermione's expression was obviously a little surprised, but more hesitation and wavering than surprise.

She took the jar and said hesitantly, "Kate..."

"Huh?" Kate responded lightly, bending her eyes with a smile, "What's the matter? You're even hesitating to me?"

"No..." Hermione shook her head hastily, her eyes turned red for some reason.

She quickly lowered her head and covered her face with fluffy hair: "Why didn't you find me?"

Kate didn't hear clearly at first, so she asked again, and immediately laughed a little: "I wanted to ask you this morning, but you dragged me to the school hospital and cared so much about me, so you didn't have time to speak."

She said with a smile, and stretched out her hand to gently pinch Hermione's little face: "It's okay, I'll invite you next time, okay?"

The brown-haired little head tilted, and fell into her arms, accompanied by a muffled answer: "Okay."

What a cute cat.

Kate rubbed her head. From the corner of her eye, she saw that Professor McGonagall had entered the classroom, so she quickly helped her up and began to listen to the class seriously.

Harry Ron, who sat behind them and witnessed the whole process, looked at each other with gritted teeth.

Is this the legendary cat plucking master?

Chapter 30 Letter of Intent with a Turnaround

That afternoon, Kate, who had just finished her meal, came to the lawn as agreed.

There was still a while before the appointed time, so she simply found a tree and sat down, leisurely flipping through the alchemy-related books she brought from home.

These should be the materials left by the ancestor Ariel, which is in line with Nicole Flamel's knowledge system, and can help her better digest the knowledge in her brain.

Yes, even after several months, the alchemy knowledge she learned from Nicole Flamel was less than one-thirtieth of the total amount.

After all, she is still young, and she has plenty of time to read slowly.

Fascinated by the book, she gradually lost track of time until a cool breeze blew past, waking Kate up from the world in the book.

Looking up and looking around, Qiu Zhang had sat beside her at some point, holding a book and reading.

"When did you come?" Kate stood up in surprise, and hurriedly put the book in her hand into her purse.

Qiu Zhang shrugged: "It was about 10 minutes ago. You seem to be quite fascinated, so I didn't bother you."

"This..." She scratched her head embarrassingly, "I asked you out, but I fell into it myself, sorry."

"It doesn't matter. Even in Ravenclaw, it's rare to see a student who is as fascinated by reading as you are. Even I was infected by your side."

Qiu Zhang smiled lightly, picked up a piece of fallen red maple at his feet, and put it in the book: "It seems pretty good to use this as a bookmark."

"Ordinary maple leaves are too inconspicuous." Kate glanced at the fallen leaves in this place. "How about it, I will make you a bookmark myself one day, and you will be satisfied!"

"Really?" Qiu Zhang asked in surprise, "Then this will be my Christmas present!"

Kate smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I will definitely do well."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while before each took out their wands.

Kate originally wanted her to try the Iron Armor Curse, but after asking, she found out that although Qiu Zhang was a primary school bully in Ravenclaw, he hadn't learned the Iron Armor Curse yet.

In the original book, Qiu Zhang also learned various practical defense against the dark arts with a group of students in DA (Dumbledore's Army), with the help of the Iron Triangle trio.

The offensive magic she is best at now is probably only the relatively simple and easy-to-learn magic spells such as the Obstacle Curse or the Fire Curse.

If it is in peacetime, as long as they are not wizards who specialize in defense against the dark arts, this kind of daily spell is enough for most young wizards to learn.

But only a small group of people like Kate and Dumbledore knew that Voldemort was still in the dark, and only these ordinary spells would definitely not work.

It seems that an opportunity must be found to make the teachers and students in the school realize the necessity of protecting the magic spells.

"Then follow what I taught you just now, only use the Fiery Curse, and if you can't hold it, you must tell me."

Kate repeated the rules aloud, and only carefully released the blue flame after seeing Qiu Zhang give her an OK gesture.

"Burning fire!"

At the moment when the flames invaded, Qiu Zhang successfully launched the Blazing Curse, forming a confrontation with Kate's blue flame.

At the same time, Kate was carefully adjusting the magic power she released.

The output power of her wand has been increased to 200%, which means that under normal circumstances, she can cast a spell with half the magic power than other wizards.

This naturally greatly prolongs her combat endurance in actual combat.

But now, she has to let go of the restrictions a little bit and strengthen the output of magic power, so as to get the effect she wants.

With [-]% magic power, the flame is still the same as usual, without any change.

Sixty percent, seventy percent, eighty percent...

As the output of magic power continued to increase, Kate finally got her wish and saw the originally silent blue flame gradually stretched out like a claw.

It is no longer a blind confrontation with Qiu Zhang's flames, but gradually becomes flexible, as if it has life, it is still burning, but it can start to gradually wrap the red flames.

Qiu Zhang still gritted her teeth and persisted, perhaps because she was so close, she could already hear the "crackling" burning sound from the blue flame that was close at hand.

Wait a minute, this voice is...

Realizing something was wrong, she immediately yelled, "It's eating! It's eating my fire!"

Kate was startled, so she could only shrink her magic power little by little, and at the same time strengthen her control over the flames, so that she could control the formed blue fire touch in time before the blue flames were about to attack Qiu Zhang himself.

"A strange flame, I have never seen such a spell before!"

Qiu Zhang took a few steps back from the spot, and quickly ran to her side: "Kate, is this your improved spell, why didn't I have this effect when I used the same spell before?"

She also wanted to know why.

Kate maintained the flame that was starting to show its teeth and claws in mid-air, distractedly replied: "I don't know, maybe it's because the magic spell has been practiced to the extreme, and some phenomena that cannot be explained by common sense will be discovered."

After all, it is a magical world, common sense seems useless here.

"Then what effect does it have now?" Qiu Zhang stared intently at the beautiful blue flame, "Its flame tentacles are like vines, do they still have the function of binding?"

When Kate heard this, she immediately turned around, pointed her wand, and the flames immediately wrapped around the big tree behind her.

In an instant, they heard the sound of the tree trunk being scorched immediately.

Good guy, the flame version of Blue Silver Grass, right?

Tried to continue to reduce some of the magic power output, leaving only [-]% of the output power, and now the flame, which was a little difficult to control, began to become more obedient.

Kate manipulated it with her wand at will, and she could easily split into multiple flaming vines, just like when she was dueling with Harry that day.

"Looks like I've found a new way to use this spell." Kate smiled, and the flames dissipated into the air as her heart moved.

Although you can't tie this thing to your teammates like a certain sea god, at least it's no problem to use it to control the enemy.

Might be able to use it for Christmas.

So far, her strongest flames are undoubtedly Chongli Shenhuo and Longyan, but both of them have the disadvantage of being extremely mana-consuming.

Longyan is better, at least she can send it for free every day. Since last year, she has relied on this once-a-day practice every year to raise the level of Longyan to level 2. If she wants to go up, she can only use water.

The Chongli Divine Fire cannot be used in the short term.

The second is Fiercefire Curse and Blue Bellflower Flame.

The attack methods used are all flames, and she feels that she can become a fire dragon someday.

"Thank you for practicing with me." Kate turned around and smiled at her.

"You're welcome, during the Christmas study tour, we can live in the same room." Qiu Zhang raised his eyebrows slightly, and finally threw out his plan.

She has already inquired that during the Christmas study tour, students can live in the same room as long as they are of the same gender, regardless of the college or grade.

And there are still four people living together.

At that time, she, Kate, Hermione and Luna, the four are just right.

She couldn't think of a reason why Kate would reject the offer.

"Christmas study tour?" Kate was stunned for a moment, then touched her nose with a guilty conscience, "How do you talk about this..."

Qiu Zhang asked strangely: "But besides Quidditch, this has been the most discussed topic among teachers and students in the school recently. You haven't handed in the registration form yet, have you?"

"I..." Being poked at the center, Kate was at a loss for words.

"You really haven't handed in the form? Why?" Qiu Zhang asked in surprise, "Maybe your family disagrees? No way, I remember that the butler of your family is very kind!"
