duel day at hogwarts

Chapter 57 Before the exam

Dumbledore's investigation came to an abrupt end.

The final review for the little wizards is still in full swing.

In the library, Sean guided Blaise in his review while speeding up his reading, trying to catch up with the communication progress of the Potions Club before the end of the first year.

"Sean, the exam will start the day after tomorrow. What do you think I should do if I fail?"

Looking at Blaise who looked confused, Sean lowered his head to read and said to him: "When you are worried about gains and losses, why not memorize the second part of my Transfiguration Notes, and then go back and try more, Transfiguration Exam

It's mostly about practice. As long as you practice the practical projects to a similar level, you should get an A (pass) and not fail."

Scratching his head a little irritably, Blaise calmed down and continued to chew on Sean's notes.

It has to be said that Sean's notes helped Brace save a lot of time. Without Sean's notes, Brace would definitely be living in an even more embarrassing situation now.

In addition to flying lessons, there are only seven required courses in first grade.

Among them, Sean is best at Potions, followed by Transfiguration, Charms, and Defense Against the Dark Arts, and his results are quite good despite Sean's deliberate use of time and energy. Finally, History of Magic, Herbal Medicine, and Astronomy are three courses.

Apart from herbal medicine, which was taken in conjunction with the potions class, and her grades were good, Sean could only say that he was passable in the history of magic and astronomy courses, not much different from other outstanding little wizards.

Therefore, before taking the exam, Sean actually had some idea of ​​his performance.

After dinner in the auditorium, Sean and Blaise parted ways. Blaise went back to his room to study with Sean's notes in his arms. Even he didn't dare to meet his girlfriend again a few days before the exam, otherwise

It's really going to fail.

Sean came to the Potions Club classroom with his book in his arms. As soon as he arrived, Jennifer Foley came up and whispered to Sean: "Sean, have you collaborated with others to sell potions recently?"

Strictly speaking, it is indeed against school rules for Hogwarts students to sell potions in private. However, Hogwarts has not strictly pursued this matter. Instead, it is a bit indulgent. Of course, the premise is that the sale

The potion must be qualified and there must be no problems, otherwise the punishment at Hogwarts will be severe.

Therefore, students at Hogwarts have no taboos about buying and selling potions.

Looking at Jennifer, Sean nodded and said, "Yes, I cooperated with others to sell some magic potions. What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just want to ask you, are you interested in cooperating with me? As long as the potions you provide meet the quality requirements, I can help you sell them in the Foley family store and only charge you a 10% commission. What?

Sample?"

After hearing Jennifer's words, Sean raised his eyebrows slightly. The conditions she gave him were even better than what Dorian gave him. When sold in the store, the price would be the outside commercial price, not the price within Hogwarts.

The price is cheap, and the 10% commission is extremely low.

This condition really couldn't be better, but Sean didn't intend to agree to it.

It's not because of Oliver Foley, but because Sean has always been quite wary of Jennifer and always felt that his nominal cousin wanted something from him.

"Thank you very much, but I am currently very happy working with my partner, and the Galleons I earn are enough for me. I don't want to switch to another company."

Listening to Sean's words, Jennifer did not show any displeasure. Instead, she smiled and said, "That's okay. Since you don't need it, I won't disturb you. Professor Time will be here soon."

As soon as Jennifer returned to her seat, Snape walked in with his billowing black robe wrapped around him, and began this Potions exchange.

After the exchange ended, Sean sat in his seat and let out a breath. After catching up with the progress for more than half a year, he could finally keep up with the communication speed of others. In order to catch up with the progress, he spent all the time during the Christmas vacation.

He did not choose to go home, but continued to stay in Hogwarts to catch up on his progress. For this reason, Sean's parents complained for a while.

Of course, keeping up with the progress is just keeping up. Sean spends most of his time listening to other people's exchanges and rarely participates in the exchanges himself, so Sean still needs to work hard.

The potion club ended and everyone left again.

Sean was still the last one to leave. He packed his things and waited for Snape to give him a new book list. However, this time Snape did not give him a new book list, but said directly to Sean:

"The exam is coming soon. After the exam, the school year will be over. I will not give you a new book list during this period. If you still want to further your studies, then summarize what you have learned before and study it again.

, you will have new gains.”

"Professor, why don't you recommend two books to me, otherwise I'm afraid I'll slack off after the holidays."

Hearing this, Snape's expressionless face suddenly revealed a very ironic smile, and he opened his mouth and began to spit venom at Sean, saying: "If you can slack off during a holiday, it means that you

You are not suitable for the Potions Club or Potions at all, just like those stupid Gryffindors. In that case, there is no need for you to stay and occupy an additional position in my Potions Club."

There was an awkward yet polite smile on his face. Sean originally wanted to make a joke, but it turned out that he still thought too much and wanted to joke with the Slytherin Snake King. He was just looking for trouble and waiting to be sprayed.

.

Back in his room, Sean put down his book and looked at Kulkan who was sleeping in his nest. At this time, he was a lot bigger than when he first started school. He didn't know that it was because Hogwarts was extra nourishing.

Fantastic beasts, or for some other reason. When he was at the Magic Zoo, Sean asked the store and found out that Kurkan had been maintaining the same size as when he bought it for two or three years. As a result, he started to grow as soon as he brought him to Hogwarts.

Yes, it’s okay if it grows a little bit. I’m just worried that it will grow too big and it will be difficult to raise it in the future.

He reached out and stroked Kulkan's head, causing Kulkan to retract his head into his snake array, obviously not wanting anyone to disturb his sleep.

Seeing this, Sean smiled and sat at the desk and continued reading.

The two days passed by in a blink of an eye, and soon the day of the exam came.

The exam is divided into two parts: written test and practical operation. For Sean, the written test is not difficult at all. As for the actual operation, Sean is not afraid of any test as long as it is not a flying test.

The first exam was Charms. Sean walked into the exam room together with Blaise, who was praying to Merlin for a smooth exam, and the three-day exam began.
