“Now, I want you to work in pairs.

Each person takes a tea cup from the shelf and comes to me. I fill the cup with tea.

Then you sit down and drink tea. When only the tea leaves are left, use your left hand to sway the tea leaves three times in the cup, and then turn the cup upside down on the tray.

Once the last drop of tea has seeped out, pass the cup to your partner for interpretation..."

Professor Trelawney held the tea cup in her hand and used her unique soft voice to describe the divination skills of tea leaves.

At this time, the teacups in front of Clark and others were filled with tea. They sat at the table and drank the hot tea in three sips according to the teacher's instructions.

Then they shook the tea leaves a few times, drained the tea, and exchanged cups.

"You know what, Clark!" Hermione muttered, staring at the brown abstract pattern, "predicting fate based on tea leaves makes me feel stupid."

Clark took Hermione's teacup and nodded in agreement, "Actually, tea leaf divination is an outdated method of divination."

He did not lower his voice, so that these explosive words instantly made some young wizards around him prick up their ears.

“This divination method first originated in the 17th century. Compared with those ancient divination techniques, it has no historical foundation at all.

After all, it wasn’t until 1609 that we learned about tea, this magical plant from the East.

It was not until the middle of the 17th century that tea became a mass consumer product.

But even so,

Tea divination also became popular at the end of the 19th century.

Therefore, the development of this method of divination only took more than two centuries, and it quickly became less popular. "

While introducing the origin of tea divination, Clark turned to the fifth and sixth pages of the textbook, and compared the shape of the tea leaves in Hermione's teacup, trying to start an interpretation.

Unfortunately, he didn't see any useful information from it. He looked at the piece of tea leaves that looked like some kind of iron lock. The description in the book was "will lead to premature marriage."

Looking from another direction, it looks like a towering tower.

Before he could think of what this pattern meant, Ron and Harry suddenly burst into laughter not far away, which also attracted the attention of Professor Trelawney.

"Honey, let me see." She turned around quickly and took Harry's tea cup away from Ron with an unhappy look on her face.

The students all fell silent and focused their attention on Professor Trelawney. She was staring at the teacup and turning it counterclockwise.

"Eagle...honey, you have a nemesis."

"That's true," Hermione deliberately raised her voice so that everyone could hear, "everyone knows about Harry and the mysterious man."

Professor Trelawney glared at her, and Harry and Ron looked at her in surprise and admiration. They had never seen Hermione behave like this towards a teacher before.

"Bludgeon...an attack." Professor Trelawney ignored Hermione and just continued to turn the tea cup, lowering her terrifyingly large eyes.

“Oh my gosh, this is not a pleasant cup…

Skull... My dear, your future is in danger..."

Everyone stared in awe at Professor Trelawney's performance. She gave the cup one final twirl, then took a deep breath and screamed.

Professor Trelawney plopped down into an empty armchair, pressed one hand tightly to his heart, and closed his eyes tightly.

"Oh - my dear child - my poor child - no - it's better not to say it - don't ask me..."

As expected, someone was fooled by such an exaggerated performance.

"What happened, Professor?"

Dean Thomas asked immediately, and everyone stood up and slowly gathered around Harry and Ron's table, trying to see what was in Harry's teacup.

"That's ominous!" Professor Trelawney suddenly opened his eyes, "I pity the child, you are 'ominous'!"

Her words seemed to have magic power. All the children from the wizarding family gasped and covered their mouths with their hands in horror.

Children like Harry, Dean, and Lavender who grew up in the Muggle world don't know why.

Of course, there were also people in the crowd, like Clark and Neville, who had no fluctuations in their expressions, and Hermione, who looked disdainful and seemed to have seen through everything.

"What?" Harry asked, "Excuse me, Professor, what do I have?"

"Ominous, dear, ominous!" Professor Trelawney shouted in shock when she saw that Harry didn't understand.

"The big black dog wandering in the cemetery! My dear child, I saw a bad omen in your tea cup. This is the worst omen, a omen of death!"

Harry's expression began to look unnatural, and his heart clenched.

If it had been anything else, he might have thought the professor was lying to him.

But he had really seen the big dog, the dog on the cover of Omen of Death at Flourish and Blotts—the dog in the shadows of Magnolia Crescent.

All the little wizards present looked at Harry, except Hermione.

In her opinion, everything that happened in today's divination class had neither scientific basis nor magical principles. It was purely a trick of charlatans.

Clark also shook his head. He was not surprised at all by Hermione's reaction.

In fact, he wanted to see the true ability of Professor Trelawney. After all, the other party did complete several real prophecies in the original work.

Whether it is the birth of the savior or Peter Pettigrew's escape from trouble, they are all accurate.

So from the beginning of this class, his powerful psychic perception ability has been turned on to the maximum, and the psychic power spreads out in circles, lingering around the opponent.

However, Professor Trelawney today did not show any special changes.

Clark can conclude with certainty that what Professor Trelawney said just now is all bluff!

So when Hermione couldn't sit still, Clark didn't stop her.

Hermione stood up, walked around behind Professor Trelawney's chair, looked down at the teacup in the other person's hand, and said bluntly.

"Professor, I don't think this is anything sinister."

Professor Trelawney turned to look at Hermione, his dislike for her gradually increasing.

"Don't be upset when I say this, my dear, but I see that the aura around you is very small. Maybe you don't have much perception of the future."

Ron tilted his head from side to side to prevent Hermione from seeing him snickering. Gu Qian

Hermione sneered and glanced at Clark. She knew that since Clark didn't stop her, he must have a backup plan to deal with it.

Sure enough, after Professor Trelawney finished belittling Hermione, Clark stood up on his own initiative.

"Professor, of course we believe what you say. After all, you are a teacher."

Clark's words made Professor Trelawney's face become much better.

"And students may not know that Professor Trelawney's great-grandmother was once a famous fortune teller named Cassandra Trelawney.

This diviner's prophecy is as powerful as the original Dark Lord Grindelwald.

Wizards with this kind of prophetic ability often have a unique title in the magical world, that is, "Prophet". "

Clark's words caused the young wizards present to exclaim. After all, they had been listening to the story of Dumbledore's victory over Grindelwald since they were children.

The corners of Professor Trelawney's mouth were also slightly raised, and a proud look appeared on his face.

In fact, according to the original work, Professor Trelawney is also a divine prophet, that is, the legendary [Prophet].

But it seems that due to the baptism of time, when this prophetic talent belonging to the [Prophet] spread to Professor Trelawney, it had been greatly diluted.

This also caused her predictions to be ineffective at times, and she even had half-doubts about her abilities.

"But!" Clark changed his tone, "Professor Trelawney, you don't seem to have shown us your true strength today."

His words instantly made Professor Trelawney nervous, "What? Real strength? I don't understand what you mean..."

"Professor, I actually know a little bit about prophecy.

Of course, I am incomparable to a prophet like you. I can only be regarded as an intuitive diviner at best, not even an astrologer.

But my intuition can tell that you did not use the ability to predict just now. "

Clark could see that when he said these words, Professor Trelawney's originally nervous expression suddenly became even more uglier.

However, she didn't cry until she saw the coffin, and she didn't completely believe Clark's words.

"Oh, really? But I can't see the spirituality surrounding you." Professor Trelawney said in a slightly questioning tone.

Clark calmly clicked on the list of abilities belonging to [Psion]. As an expert in manipulating psychic power, [Psion] also has the ability of prophecy.

"That may be because my spirituality is hiding."

He made a joke, and then said: "But since I awakened my magic power, I can often see things that have happened to some objects."

Clark spent 500 experience points in exchange for a prophecy-based psychic power - [Reading Objects].

[Reading Objects]: Level 1 power, consuming 1 point of psychic energy. You can use psychic energy to sense the remaining information fragments on an object. The traceback time is 12 hours. You can extend the traceback time by increasing the psychic energy consumption.

He glanced around, and the invisible mental fluctuations turned into a circle of ripples, spreading outward, colliding with surrounding objects, and then transmitting the general information carried by certain objects back to his mind.

"Professor, did you buy this necklace from a stall in Diagon Alley yesterday?" Clark's eyes fell on Professor Trelawney.

"How do you know? You are following me!" Professor Trelawney was shocked and almost blurted out.

However, Hermione said disdainfully, "Clark came to school by train with us yesterday."

Clark just smiled faintly and didn't defend himself. He just looked at a girl from Ravenclaw aside.

"Padma, you seem to have lost the pearl brooch on your dress the day before yesterday?"

The little girl with freckles nodded nervously under everyone's gaze.

Clark showed a true expression, and then said: "If I were you, maybe I would look through my own Transfiguration textbook, maybe there will be a surprise."

As soon as she said this, Trelawney's face suddenly turned pale. She knew that since Clark dared to say this, he must be completely confident.

After all, this kind of thing is not as vague as the prediction she just made. The Ravenclaw female student only needs to go back and read the book after class to verify the truth of his words.

The young wizards around him were also aware of this. In their opinion, the ability Clark showed was not much different from what Professor Trelawney showed just now.

The pressure now came to Professor Trelawney. Under everyone's gaze, she opened her mouth, but was too nervous to say a word.

The classroom suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Clark saw the sweat dripping down from Professor Trelawney's forehead. Knowing that the heat was almost done, Clark smiled again, "Of course, I can also see that what you just said was teasing us."

"Ah, yes! Yes! Yes!" Professor Trelawney nodded quickly.

“Actually, the real point of tea divination is not the interpretation of the tea residue after drinking the tea, but the cup of tea.

Just like the professor you light the incense in this classroom, and the half bottle of sherry on your desk.

If I guessed correctly, these two things must contain some special ingredients.

These special ingredients may teach you ancestral secret recipes, which can slightly weaken our subjective consciousness, while improving spiritual power and helping diviners better perceive fragments of information from the outside world from a spiritual perspective.

The tea leaves needed for tea divination should also be special magic materials with the same effect. "

Clark's words made the young wizards present suddenly realize that his words were actually easier to understand than Professor Trelawney's mysterious and vague statement.

It turns out that it’s not that we don’t have the talent for divination, but that the tools and materials we use are wrong!

Professor Trelawney also had a stern expression on her face. In fact, she didn't know much about the techniques Clark mentioned.

Fortunately, Clark took it easy and gave her a step down.

“But I also know that just like the ancestral incense and sherry that I taught you, this special divination prop material is very precious.

After all, it is just the first lesson of school, and we are all still beginners. It is a waste to use this precious material on us, so it is excusable. "

"Ah, yes, thank you for your understanding," Professor Trelawney said in a particularly vague voice, "Yes, those skills are indeed too early for you."

"Then Professor, what you just said is unknown..." Clark struck while the iron was hot.

Professor Trelawney could only hold his nose and said, "Hahaha, that was just a joke between you and me. I say that every year in the first class."

After speaking, as if he was worried that these students would cause trouble again, Professor Trelawney said directly: "Okay, I think that's the end of today's class, yes... please pack your things... …”

Then, she returned to the shadows. At least in Hermione's view, her back looked very embarrassed.
