Chapter 56 It feels so good to be a bad guy! (Thanks to [QwQwQwQ] for 100 starting coins
"Welcome, children, here you will travel in the world of divination."
In the slightly crowded church, a woman wearing a thin and transparent shawl with many shiny metal pieces was welcoming the students who came to her class.
[Harry Potter]: Something's wrong. Why are there no new people today? This doesn't fit the setting of the web novel.
【天行九歌】: My reading speed is really too fast, and I still have to understand the principles. It’s so troublesome. Isn’t there a genius Chen Yi who appears?
[The Matrix]: Speaking of geniuses, I remember a movie called "Never Ending". It would be perfect if Chen Yi traveled to that world and obtained the NZT-48.
[Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba]: It turns out that even if you hit NZT-48, you can’t speak Chinese well.
[Super Out of Control]: This is an actor’s problem, okay? Also, this is not the point.
[Qianwumei Xiaomi]: Let me calculate, fifteen Chen Yi, three months, nothing wrong!
[Strong Breeding Armor]: Is it possible that the author also fell in love?
[Marvel]: Maybe I can’t hold back the words.
[Ready Player One]: Maybe the first batch of people should be excluded.
[Frozen]: What you mean is that we are the members who officially count time.
[Legend of Sword and Fairy 4]: If you calculate it this way, wouldn’t it mean that you have to wait another month?
"you!"
A face with big glasses suddenly appeared in front of Chen Yi. Chen Yi was so frightened that he almost punched him. Fortunately, he saw clearly who the person in front of him was. It was the teacher of this class, so he did not punch.
"Your magic guidance is not smooth, and someone will say bad things to you!"
Trelawney made her own prophecy, or guess, about the new students.
Sybill Trelawney is a descendant of the famous soothsayer Cassandra Trelawney in Greek mythology. Legend has it that she offended Apollo, which caused her predictions to be accurate, but no one believed her.
This is actually very similar to Sybill Trelawney. Even as a wizard, most people think she is a liar and will look for various factors to explain her prophecies.
In addition, her prophecy method is actually too broad and seems to be a bit accurate. For example, she once predicted that Lavender Brown's most feared thing would happen on October 16th, but she did not tell him exactly what it was.
Let the other person guess what happened.
In the end, because she was crazy, her predictions naturally became even more unbelievable.
Chen Yi had no ill feelings towards her, but this guy actually predicted him, so he had to let him know what it meant to be a top student, so he raised his hand.
Seeing students asking questions, Trelawney seemed very happy and motioned for Chen Yi to speak.
"Professor Trelawney, I have a question that I don't understand. If I predict that something will happen, but I change it, is my prediction accurate?"
"certainly……"
Trelawney subconsciously thought it was accurate, but soon realized why it was changed if it was accurate.
This is a bit like the grandmother's paradox. You have changed the future, but you are a product of the future, so your future should theoretically not exist.
Trelawney fell into deep thought and began to mutter: "No, the prophecy cannot be changed!"
"If the prophecy cannot be changed, then why prophecy? It is already happening anyway."
Chen Yi asked again.
Trelawney's face turned pale. This problem was quite fatal. It was so fatal that she began to doubt whether the profession of divination was even necessary.
Hermione couldn't bear to pull Chen Yi's sleeve, indicating that it was enough, and refused to go to class if he asked again.
Although she also believed that the divination class was pure nonsense, as a studious student, she had always believed in learning it first and then considering its usefulness.
In the following divination class, Trelawney spoke dryly, wishing she could pour beans out of a bamboo tube and explain all the topics and let the students leave quickly.
"cool!"
Ron gave Chen Yi a thumbs up. Perhaps it was Dumbledore's arrangement that Chen Yi lived in the same dormitory as Ron and Harry.
In fact, he would rather live in the same dormitory with Hermione, but considering that the person involved may not agree, he has no choice but to share a room with two men.
Fortunately, the dormitory in Hogwarts is not the canopy bed he had when he was in college, but a magic bed per person.
The next class is Hagrid's Care of Magical Creatures class, which is a joint outdoor class, Gryffindor and Slytherin take it together.
It has to be said that it is quite simple for foreigners to come up with names. For example, the protagonist of their class today is named Hippogriff. Although the name is very long, it is easy to understand at a glance.
Chen Yi thought that if this magical animal were in the East, it would probably be called Xiao Yingzhao.
"Another Mudblood."
At this moment, a harsh voice came into Chen Yi's ears.
The speaker was a young man with blond hair, his pointed chin raised high, looking at Chen Yi.
Obviously Trelawny's prophecy was successful, but in fact this is natural. For Slytherin people, it is a sin in itself for Muggle descendants to possess magic.
Hermione's face became a little ugly. If she were asked to choose one person in Hogwarts that she hated the most, that person would undoubtedly be Draco Malfoy.
In fact, to a certain extent, Malfoy undoubtedly helped a lot in bringing Hermione and Ron together in the original plot.
Think about it, there is someone who has been calling you a bastard, and now someone stands up for you. Even if he is embarrassed every time he stands up, it is hard not to be moved by him.
"Boy, if you raise your neck so high, be careful of dislocating your jaw."
He was scolded for nothing. If this was not Hogwarts, Chen Yi would have rolled up his sleeves and beaten him on the spot.
"Hmph...Oude goes down to the dam!"
Just when Malfoy said a few more harsh words, he was shocked to find that his jaw was really dislocated, and he covered his chin and screamed.
Seeing this, several of Malfoy's younger brothers hurriedly supported the boss. Chen Yi flicked the fingers of his right hand, and the younger brothers' feet were weak and they fell towards Malfoy, knocking him down and directly pressing him under him.
Benedict!
A magic wand fell in front of Chen Yi. Chen Yi blinked and raised his leg to step on it.
"Oops, I'm sorry, Malfoy, I accidentally stepped on your wand. How about I pay you for it?"
Chen Yi took out a few gold galleons and threw them in front of Malfoy.
"Well……"
Because his jaw was dislocated and he was out of breath due to the pressure, Malfoy's originally pale face turned blood red, and he was obviously very angry.
It feels so good to be the bad guy!
Chen Yi thought about it and felt it wasn't bad enough, so he put his hand on Hermione's shoulder and smiled like a second-generation ancestor who had done evil.
Hermione rolled her eyes, but she didn't refuse. Once she said it, she felt that being a bad guy was actually quite good.
Ron:……
Harry:......
I always feel that Hermione's style of painting has changed since Chen Yi came.
