Hogwarts: The Book of Chaos, the Power of Knowledge

However, this still didn't reassure Colt. After thinking about it, he looked at Harry again and said, "Do you still have any doubts about the veracity of the story I'm telling?"

Harry has now fully digested the ins and outs of the whole thing, and doesn't think there is anything fake, it was Colt who lied to him, so he nodded, "I believe what you said, and you have no reason to lie to me, no? Well."

"Well, in order to keep this secret and for the safety of Professor Snape, I think we should use a magic to protect this secret, what do you think?"

When Colt said this, everyone had a little bit of doubt, not that Colt would be bad for them, but worried, such a profound magic, can Colt really do it?

But don't have any surprises by then.

Colt, who noticed this, pretended to be helpless and said, "There's no way! I'm not worried about the others, it's just..." When he said this, Colt gave Hagrid an embarrassed look.

So people suddenly realized that there is still a big mouth here!

Seeing Colt's eyes like this made Hagrid very awkward, and muttered, "I'm also very reliable, okay? Dumbledore trusts me the most."

However, anyone could see how unconvincing Hagrid's words were.

In the end, Hagrid simply stopped struggling, looking like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, "Alright, alright, if you want to use magic to protect this secret, then come on, I'll come to the head office first."

Seeing Hagrid's aggrieved look, the others couldn't help laughing, which made Hagrid, who was already blushing, even more red, almost dripping blood.

The magic Colt said was actually a magic involving memory.

However, because it does not involve deep-level memories, and at the same time, it must be performed willingly by the practitioner, and it is used to keep secrets, so it is actually not that difficult.

However, this is a very good magic used to keep secrets.

Because, the power of this magic comes entirely from the will of the caster himself.

When you tell the secret that the magic keeps, you will be reminded, the mouth will be closed for a moment, and you will not be able to speak.

This is to prevent you from unknowingly telling secrets that you need to keep.

And then, whether or not to keep the secret depends entirely on one's own will.

If you don't want to say it, and your will is extremely firm, then, even if you are cast Legilimency at this time, the other party will never be able to get a little bit of the secret.

However, if you are more swaying yourself, or want to say it, then soon the limitations of not being able to say it will disappear and you can say it directly.

After understanding how this magic works, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, this magic itself is not dangerous, and it can even be said to be a very pure white magic.

Thanks to Colt's actions, very quickly, everything they talked about here today and heard everything was sealed up, and everything they said in Haige's hut today, without their intentional disclosure, No one else wants to know a word.

"Hoo~!" Colt, who sighed in relief, finally saved his dog's head, "Okay, it's done."

"Well, I also want to know, what you said before about Neville, okay?" Harry said hesitantly.

In this regard, Colt has nothing to say, nodded, put away his wand and continued to sit down and start the next story.

"Actually, Neville's birthday is July 30. Do you still remember that prophecy? When the Savior was born at the end of July, Neville's birth date also matches, right?"

"So, after Voldemort disappeared, at some point, the Death Eaters found Neville's parents and, of course, the young Neville."

"They used the Cruciatus in the Unforgivable Curse in front of Neville to torture them into madmen. You may not know that they are still staying in St. Mungo's for treatment until now."

"Just with the current magic technology, it is almost impossible to recover."

As sad as it was, Harry still didn't understand what it had to do with Neville.

But he's patient now, so instead of talking, he waits for Colt to continue.

"Neville's grandmother, that is a strong old man. After the Neville family was rescued, the old man was worried that Neville would leave a psychological shadow and had to use the forgetting spell to erase this memory of Neville. ."

"I see." Hermione exclaimed at this time, but she soon realized that this kind of behavior was very impolite. She stuck out her sweet tongue and smiled apologetically.

Colt didn't mind this, but smiled and looked at her encouragingly, "Since you know, then it's up to you."

With Colt's encouragement, Hermione immediately said: "Although the forgetting spell can make people forget some unpleasant memories, but if this memory is too deep, it will also have a great impact on the person's own memory and even personality. That's probably why Neville became what he is now."

After speaking, she also looked at Colt as if to verify.

"That's right." Colt nodded in approval, much to Hermione's delight.

Others felt sympathy for what happened to Neville after learning about it.

After an afternoon full of secrets at Hagrid's cottage, Colt and the others left before dark for Hogwarts Castle.

As soon as they returned to the dormitory, George and Fred were about to hold Colt in their arms, sandwiching him from left to right, and made it to Colt's bed together.

"You guy, you are really dishonest! With such a good place."

"But they didn't say anything to us. If it weren't for today, we wouldn't know at all!"

"Humph, tell me, how can you compensate us!"

Colt knew exactly what the two of them were talking about, and rolled his eyes helplessly, he knew that these two guys would do this.

Seriously, Colt felt incredible that they were able to hold it in until now.

"Okay, okay, tell me, what do you want?"

Seeing Colt let go, the two looked at each other and gave each other high fives in celebration. *
