Chapter 13 Roommates Are Really Not Simple

 The explosion at Malfoy Manor has nothing to do with Hogwarts. Here, even Voldemort has to be coiled up, and Grindelwald has to lie down. He cannot affect the teachers and students in class. If you want to cause trouble, you have to wait until the exam is over.

Let’s talk again.

After breakfast, the new students of Gryffindor began to go to the Charms classroom for their first class at Hogwarts. Everyone was a little nervous.

Charles and Seamus were no exception, so much so that when they came back to their senses, they found themselves lost.

Fortunately, there are many oil paintings in the castle, and ghosts pass by from time to time. As long as you politely ask for directions, you will get the correct answer.

Except for Peeves, he will find ways to tease you no matter whether you are polite or not.

"Look what I found?!" Peeves passed through the ceiling and appeared in the corridor, "Two little devils, hahahaha! Let you see how powerful I am!"

He rushed behind the armor on the edge of the corridor and pushed the armor down in the direction of Charles and Seamus.

"Clang!"

The metal armor fell heavily to the ground and immediately scattered in all directions. Seamo was hit by the flying helmet on the front of his calf. The pain made him hold his leg and scream, and the book in his hand fell to the ground.

Charles raised his foot and stepped on the flying iron glove. When he saw Peeves flying towards the armor on the other side of the corridor, he thought of a guess and kicked the iron glove.

Just when Peeves was about to overthrow the second armor, the flying iron gauntlet suddenly hit him, knocking him two meters away.

"Who?!" He shouted angrily, "Who dares to..."

"Peeves is coming!"

"Peeves get out!"

Before Peeves could finish speaking, it was as if he was grabbed by a big hand and thrown out of the window.

"Cool!" Seamus ran to Charles regardless of the pain in his feet and asked, "How did you do it? I heard my mother said that no one can subdue Peeves!"

Charles said to him: "Hurry up and don't be late. I'll tell you on the way."

Seamus hurriedly picked up the textbook and rushed to the Charms classroom on the fourth floor of the castle with Charles.

On the way, Charles said: "Before I came to school, I heard that Peeves could walk through walls and touch objects. This seems contradictory."

"So I have a guess. Peeves has two states: he can penetrate objects and contact objects. These two states may not coexist."

"Just now, he wanted to overturn the armor, which means that he is in a state where he can touch objects, so objects can also touch him."

"In order to confirm this guess, I hit him with something, and the guess turned out to be correct. So while he didn't react, I used the Flying Curse and the Throwing Curse to throw him out."

Simo didn't quite understand what he heard, but he felt it was very powerful.

The two finally arrived at the Charms classroom before class, and as soon as they sat down, Professor Flitwick appeared with the roster.

Professor Flitwick jumped onto a bundle of books behind the podium to emerge, opened the roster and began to call the roll.

"Harry...Potter..."

The professor was so excited that he screamed and almost fainted.

Seamus whispered with some envy: "Potter is very famous. He is watched by people wherever he goes."

Charles comforted him in a low voice: "It doesn't matter. I believe that with your talent, you will also attract much attention in the future."

Seamus said: "I hope so."

He did it quickly.

After the roll call, Professor Flitwick said to everyone: "The learning of spells needs to be done step by step and practiced hard. Don't imagine that you can master those extremely complicated spells in the first grade."

"Today we will first learn a simple spell, 'Breeze Slowly'. Does anyone know this spell?"

As soon as the professor finished speaking, Hermione's hand was raised straight, without even a millisecond of delay.

After being called, Hermione stood up and replied: "The function of the spell Breeze is to blow a stream of wind on the top of the wand, and its spell is... blah blah blah... the casting action is... croak croak croak...



Compared with when she usually talks, she is a little excited now, as if she is doing her favorite thing.

After hearing this, Professor Flitwick clapped his hands and said: "Very good, very good, perfect answer. Two points from Gryffindor."

Charles looked at the back of Hermione's head and knew that there would be a proud smile on her face after she sat down.

Hermione's heart is actually very sensitive. An 11-year-old girl has always been cautious after coming to a completely unfamiliar environment. Her arrogance is just a kind of self-protection for her.

But she is indeed awesome enough to deserve this arrogance.

Professor Flitwick began to explain to the students how to recite the spell, how to wave the wand to cast the spell, and then practiced individually.

This spell is actually very simple, and many freshmen from wizarding families have already mastered it before.

These students learn through the words and deeds of their parents, and when adult wizards cast spells, they always bring some habits that make them comfortable in casting spells. These habits may not be suitable for their children.

Professor Flitwick kept walking around the classroom, correcting their irregularities, learning the standards first and then improving according to his own habits.

When he walked to Charles, he admired the 460 wand, which was almost half his height, and then said seriously: "When casting a spell, you mainly look at the movement trajectory of the tip of the wand. At this point, the longer the wand, the better it will be."

It’s easy to make mistakes, so you have to be careful.”

Charles immediately said: "Thank you, Professor, I will pay attention to it."

Jack didn't tell him this little detail, which is the difference between educators and ordinary people.

After half a class, the whole class was able to make the wand blow out wind like a hair dryer, and everyone cast spells on each other to blow each other's hair.

Charles felt that Professor Flitwick chose such a simple magic for the first lesson because he wanted everyone to gain some confidence.

At this time, Professor Flitwick asked everyone to come over and play a small game to get extra points.

There was a long table in the open space in front of the podium, with a row of candles spaced about 10 centimeters apart. Professor Flitwick asked everyone to cast a spell at one end of the long table to see how far they could blow out the candles.

This row of candles is 2 meters long. If you can blow out a candle over 1.5 meters, you will get one point. If you blow out the last candle, you will get two points.

Everyone has only one chance, so everyone uses all their strength to cast the spell.

Harry appeared in the spotlight and was a little nervous when casting the spell. In the end, only three candles were still burning.

He sighed helplessly and glanced at Charles depressedly.

Charles said with some pride: "Don't be discouraged, you have several more candles than the third place Hermione."

At this time, Seamus appeared, and he was also a little nervous.

Professor Flitwick said from the side: "Don't be nervous, it's just a small game, stay calm."

Seamus took a deep breath to calm himself down and began to cast a spell on the flame of the candle.

"Boom!"

The loud noise echoed in the classroom, and everyone covered their ears.

In front of Seamus, not to mention the candles, even the long table disappeared.

Charles was a little scared. Seamus had used this spell to blow his head just now. If the tip of his wand had released such a huge shock wave at that time, he would probably have to go to Highgate Cemetery to lie down.

"The old man is right," Charles thought, "Hogwarts is indeed dangerous."
