The resident ghost of Gryffindor House is Sir Nicholas of Mimsy-Porpington, but people are more accustomed to calling him "Nearly Headless Nick" because his head did not completely fall off his neck when he was tortured before death.
went on, and continued to his image after turning into a ghost.
It is no longer known when "Nearly Headless Nick" appeared in the academy.
What people know about him is limited to the story of his death repeated year after year, as if it were a relished drama. He served in King Henry's court because he accidentally caused a certain noble lady to grow fangs.
He was sentenced to be beheaded with a blunt axe. At the end of the story, Nick would always take the trouble to persuade everyone to learn magic well, use their magical power carefully, and not to make the same mistakes he made.
This story has been spread among generations of students and has almost become a cultural symbol of Gryffindor House.
Approachable, affable, old-fashioned, and a little funny, this is people's impression of Nick.
However, in today's grammar class, the little wizards got to know "Sir Nicholas" again.
Compared with the ghost who is a bit reckless and sensitive in daily life, and who occasionally talks about small details, Sir Nicholas in the grammar class showed the elegance and confidence that a true aristocrat should have, and he was very good at various ancient allusions and writing techniques.
Countless treasures.
After all, the real name of "Nearly Headless Nick" before he turned into a ghost was the famous Thomas Cromwell.
As the drafter of the "Supremacy Act" and the "Act of Appeal", he single-handedly promoted the "Gondor Revolution", expelled the power of the Holy See from all over Britain during his term, personally planned British finance, religion, and law for the next hundreds of years, and even ended several
The top politician in the non-magical and wizarding wars for centuries. To some extent, he is even more powerful than Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald combined.
Elena was not surprised at all by Mr. World's accomplishments in the field of literature.
In fact, if "Cromwell" couldn't even teach basic grammar courses well, Elena might be a little surprised.
The whole class was quickly attracted by the story told by "Professor Nicholas", and no one made a sound in the rest of the grammar class.
Everyone sat quietly in their seats, focusing on taking notes on "The Nibelungenlied" as Nick explained and asked. So when the get out of class bell rang, many little wizards even had extremely expressions on their faces. A rare look of loss appeared.
"Okay, gentlemen and ladies, today's class is over."
Sir Nicholas clapped his hands and looked at the little wizards in the classroom with a smile.
"As for homework, please reorganize it and copy the "Nibelungenlied" once. The library should be able to see and try to recite the first 12 lines of the "Nibelungenlied". As for this course
As for the overall evaluation, I think...the whole class is excellent."
"Course evaluation?"
Harry frowned in confusion and looked at Sir Nicholas in confusion.
However, before Sir Nicholas could answer, the student handbook placed by everyone on the desk suddenly trembled.
Then, just like in the auditorium, the first page suddenly opened, and words began to appear on the blank page.
This line of text flashed on the paper and was quickly sucked in, leaving no trace at all.
Then, a few new lines of text seeped out of the paper.
The next refresh time of "Daily Tasks" is 08:00
"Mission 1: Top Student!" (3 remaining times to complete)
"Get an excellent evaluation in any class of the day (1/1)"
"Mission 2: Perfect Attendance!" (remaining number of completions: 1)
"Achieve good and above ratings in all classes on the day (1/4)"
"Task 3: Finish today's work today!" (4 remaining times to complete)
"Complete the homework assigned by the professor before eight o'clock the next morning (0/1)"
…
"Weekly Mission" (unlocked after completing any 3 missions)
"Monthly Mission" (unlocked after completing any 10 missions)
"Academy Mission" (unlocked after completing any 15 missions)
…
At the top of the page, two squiggles with golden borders appeared.
"Personalization Settings", "Main Menu", "Learning System (!)"
A red exclamation point flashed in front of the little wizards' eyes, with a faint reminder appearing next to it.
【←Tap the dialog box to view】
As the little wizards' fingers touched the border, the words on the page quickly disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, their class schedule for this week appeared in front of everyone.
And on the small frame of [Grammar Class], a small, golden-red "①" is flashing continuously.
After continuing to click on it, the homework assigned by Sir Nicholas just now is clearly displayed.
Almost all the little wizards had expressions of disbelief, excitement and curiosity on their faces, and excited exclamations sounded from time to time in the classroom.
This unprecedented magic book completely subverted their cognition. Everyone kept flicking back and forth in the "Student Handbook", looking up various contents, if "Nearly Headless Nick" hadn't urged them to leave for the third time.
, and threatened to change the evaluation of this class, these little wizards who had just received the "new toys" could even stay in the grammar classroom to study their "Student Handbook".
Five minutes later, the little wizards from Grade 2 Class A left the classroom one after another, preparing to go to Transfiguration class.
Along the way, almost all the students, not just Elena and her group, but every little wizard walking in the corridor, excitedly held their own "student handbook" and clicked on it curiously.
Sharing their respective tasks and new discoveries.
Even though the functions of the "Student Manual" have not been fully unlocked, the little wizards have also discovered many new uses of the "Manual".
For example, although this manual seems to only have a few dozen pages, it can obviously carry far more content than what is visible to the naked eye.
Whether it's notes in class, excerpts from textbooks, inspiration records... or even random scribblings when you're bored, all of these can be recorded on separate pages. Each page is an independent notebook, which can store roughly four minutes.
One of the contents of "A History of Magic".
Of course, not all pages can be used as free entry spaces for students.
As the project initiator, developer, and system module setter of the "Hogwarts Personal Data Terminal"... Elena is very clear about the basic parameters of the "first-generation terminals" in the hands of students today: in addition to the personal home interface, tasks
In addition to the seven frameworks of system, course module, game platform, achievement record, system settings, and spell slots, the regular "manual" has a total of 21 blank pages for the little wizard to use freely.
However, this is a function only available in the complete version. Except for the little wings and her own copy, the other students currently have 23 blank pages.
In the plan submitted by Elena, rare pages such as "Achievements Page" and "Spell Slots" all need to be upgraded through points. If a little wizard wants to increase the number of pages, he will have to pay extra.
There are too many versions to store, and the new semester has just begun.
