In October, the UK ushered in the most uncomfortable month of the year – the rainy season.

The damp and cold air eroded into the castle and penetrated into the students. Seeing that more and more students wanted to attend class while sick, Tweel had no choice but to team up with Madam Pomfrey to make a batch of chocolates to prevent and treat colds and distributed them.

After doing all this, and as the days passed, the class was on the right track.

With last year’s fishing experience and Lockhart’s enthusiastic help, Tver successfully gained a lot of free time.

This time is spent on Dumbledore, a little on Malvolio and Cynthia, and a little on the basilisk. Occasionally, there is also the confinement of the three Harrys, and finally they have to provide counseling to Neville and Percy. .

He was surprised to find that this year was even busier than last year!

Fortunately, Lockhart was very helpful and enthusiastic about reviewing test papers and papers.

In other words, it was too high.

He seemed to want to put his own name on every assignment and then bracket Tver’s name.

Little did he know that this made his reputation worse…

But no matter what, Tver was grateful to him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have much time to study the crown.

Ever since he noticed that the crown was absorbing life force, he had been putting the crown and the magic stone together.

The crown is very sensible and obediently absorbs the life force, almost draining the magic stone dry.

Of course, the Philosopher’s Stone seems to have the ability to automatically recover, otherwise Nick Flamel wouldn’t be able to use it for hundreds of years.

It’s just that the crown is a bit too good-natured. No matter how much Tver tests it, it doesn’t show anything special.

So after studying it in the office for a long time, he could only notice that the crown had become more flexible.

This kind of agility is a bit like an embryo. You can feel the vitality inside, but it cannot be called a complete living body yet.

Moreover, the vitality inside was provided by the magic stone. After studying it for a while, the embryo showed signs of decline.

This is too wolf-like and will not let the magic stone rest for a moment.

Putting the crown and the magic stone away, Tver looked at the dull office, only the naughty elf occasionally made a little banging noise.

He expanded the space of the cage a little, enough for the elves to live inside.

Also enlarged are the cages of other magical creatures, so without the dummy to evaluate the test papers, the office is still very quiet on weekdays.

It was so quiet that Tver, a quiet person, found it boring.

So I walked out of the office and prepared to go to the library to supplement some knowledge that I didn’t have.

It’s evening now, the sun is emitting its last rays, and the little wizards are greedily enjoying the last bit of leisure time, laughing and playing in the castle.

But some students are more diligent.

When Tver came to the library, there were still students in twos and threes taking the time to read and do homework.

Most of them are fifth- and seventh-grade students. Although Tver’s courses are considered easy, their learning tasks facing the exam will not be easy.

However, there is also a figure of a sixth grader in it.

Percy Weasley.

Penello, who used to be by his side, is no longer here, and his expression is even weirder.

“Percy?” Teville sat next to him, “I heard that you were in love recently. Did you have a date in the library?”

Jumping at the sudden sound, Percy quickly covered the book he was reading.

“Professor Welfare, I…I’m just waiting for Penelo. She has something to do and has returned to the lounge.”

has a problem!

Tver glanced at the name of the book. Although only the words “—’s control of evil thoughts” were revealed, he recognized it immediately.

One of the must-read extracurricular books for Durmstrang freshmen – “Control of Evil Thoughts by Black Magic”.

“Are you learning dark magic?!” Tver looked at Percy in surprise.

He glanced at the title of the book and smiled.

“I just wanted to learn about black magic out of curiosity.”

Tver did not believe this.

If he simply wanted to understand black magic, he had a lot of summary books to introduce to Percy, but this book was clearly an introductory book to black magic.

It is used to learn black magic.

“Tell me,” he said gently, without getting angry because of Percy’s lie, “Why are you suddenly interested in dark magic?”

Realizing that he had been seen through, Percy hesitated and said, “Do you remember that night? I felt the breath of dark magic in your office.”

Tver recalled

, the night that allowed Percy to feel the dark magic was probably the night when he took out the Horcrux for the first time and conducted research on it.

The aura of Voldemort’s evil soul is indeed a bit conspicuous to a top student like Percy.

This was also the reason why he continued his research when he arrived at Knockturn Alley, because he was afraid that Dumbledore would notice.

Horcruxes are evil enough, not to mention that he is studying the souls in them…

“Yes, I am indeed studying black magic. To be honest, I have never stopped studying black magic.”

He did not explain in detail that things like Horcruxes were not something Percy could come into contact with right now.

Percy took a deep breath before summoning the courage to look at Twil.

“However, black magic is… after all, it has evil intentions.”

He knew that studying black magic was normal in the eyes of adult wizards, especially powerful wizards.

But after reading the book, he understood that twisted evil thoughts when using black magic can easily erode a wizard’s heart.

The powerful characteristics of black magic itself make it easy for people to become fascinated.

To his surprise, Tver admitted this point outright.

“You are right. As long as black magic is successfully used, it must be hostile. The more powerful the black magic, the stronger the hostility.”

“But you have to know one thing. Aurors also have strong hostility when dealing with dark wizards. Even if they don’t use black magic, this evil intention is sometimes no weaker than that caused by black magic.”

“So, as long as you can control your thoughts, you can learn and research even black magic.”

Seeing that Percy was lost in thought, Tver did not interrupt and planned to find a relaxing book to read.

But before he could turn around, Percy was freed from his thoughts.

“Professor, can you teach me the dark arts?”

Tver raised his eyebrows in surprise, looked at Percy’s firm eyes, and instantly felt the power inside.

“You don’t have to learn black magic. If you want to improve your strength, I can teach you a lot of white magic that is enough to defeat most opponents.”

Percy shook his head, “Professor, I want to learn black magic not only to improve my strength, but also to help me… face black magic more calmly.”

He didn’t dare to look the professor in the eyes because he didn’t tell the truth——

I just want to be closer to you…

Tver rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Seeing that Percy was getting more and more guilty, he smiled and said: “Of course, I will add black magic to future tutoring as appropriate, but if you can’t bear it, I won’t It will keep you learning.”

“Of course not!” Percy said with joy on his face.
