I'm the paper king at Hogwarts

Chapter 210 Occlumency

Snape let out a scoff.

The thunder was loud and the raindrops were light. I thought that Louis would be able to create some form of patron saint, but I never expected that it would be done by releasing a burst of blue smoke.

That's it?

Louis was also a little confused. He was clearly thinking about the happiest time just now. Logically speaking, he should be able to make the patron saint take shape.

He couldn't help but fell into deep thought, don't I have Catherine in my heart?

So he thought from love to philosophy, from philosophy to science, from science to literature, and finally stopped at who I am, where I am, and what I want to do.

In the end, it was Snape who solved his doubts.

Maybe Snape couldn't stand this guy wasting his precious time.

"I think if you have a little bit of linguistic foundation, you should be able to find out-"

Snape didn't say anything, but just turned his head to look at him. The hollowness in his eyes made Louis feel a little tremor in his heart for no reason.

"I understand, Professor." Lewis nodded: "How about... let's practice it now?"

Before he finished speaking, Snape's wand was raised.

"Huh?" Louis didn't understand what Snape meant: "Why do you say that?"

"I think it is necessary for Harry to practice Occlumency." Louis suggested.

It was Snape who solved his confusion.

"Why not?" Louis showed a smile that he thought was very kind.

"Generally speaking, the shape of the Patronus varies from person to person, and is related to the wizard's personality and physique." Snape said slowly: "But I can't understand it, you..." As he said,

Looking Louis up and down, he continued with some disgust: "You are a little giant whose growth rate is fast catching up with Hagrid. Why is the patron saint a swallow? Even from a genetic point of view, it is not clear..."

"I will accept this suggestion, Professor." Louis waved his wand to disperse the Patronus Spell: "Okay, can we start the second training next?"

"If you want to deceive someone who is interested in your Legilimency, you must not only clear your brain." Snape's voice was still disgusting: "You must learn to just close your emotions and part of your memory, and then simulate some"

Illusion', so that people can't see that you are lying, do you understand?"

"How could it be possible..." Lewis grinned: "If you happen to read it, it can only be said that I am not good at learning and I can't blame you..."

How is it possible? This was Louis' first reaction. What the hell is it a pronunciation problem? Who in this country has the right pronunciation as my family does? Our family's accent is the pronunciation standard of England!

"Okay, Louis." Snape sneered: "You really can't see it? I don't think so. Sometimes you really get too involved in the drama...don't you just want to use them two...

…”

Snape's eyes suddenly sharpened.

And I think Draco is the kind of person who is very talented and can separate his life and emotions. He has always done this. He can turn off his pity and lock up his sympathy, so as to be effective.

He often bullies others. For example, when he was in first grade, he liked to tease Neville very much. If I hadn't seen it..."

"It's a good Occlumency technique, but it's a little fake." Snape said with a smile.

"If you don't mind having your memory read by me." Snape shrugged, just like he did when talking to Lockhart on the dueling stage.

He jumped back quickly and reached out to stop Snape's movements: "Forget it, I won't bother you anymore. I'll just go back and practice slowly with Catherine..."

"Occlumency!" Louis' eyes became blank, and he emptied his mind in an instant.

"Stop talking." Snape pointed to the door: "I will consider your opinion. Now - please get out, Mr. Lewis."

Only then did Louis suddenly realize, no wonder he seemed to have seen it somewhere, it turned out to be a swallow...

A skill that costs ten mana points every minute. It's quite fun to call it out and play with it. Louis, who is rich and wealthy, doesn't care about this mana value at all.

"That's what you said." Louis waited for a long time without waiting for the next step. When he looked up at Snape, Snape was frozen there as if he had forgotten his lines.

*Congratulations on learning the special spell: Patronus Charm, current skill level: MAX

*Tip: The Patronus Charm has no proficiency or level, it is only linked to one's current emotions.

Snape paused for a moment, glanced at him like a knife, and did not continue to speak.

Just kidding, if you want to practice partial closure, part of your memory will inevitably be read by others. For this matter, it is more reliable to practice with Catherine.

This is a very addictive game. Louis stood beside the two of them for a long time without attracting their attention.

Halfway through Snape's words, he didn't seem to want to make Louis happy.

"How did you know?" Snape obviously didn't believe it.

"You mean Occlumency?" Snape asked, "I think you should start from the basics. In order to avoid the embarrassing thing just now, I think it is necessary to teach the pronunciation of this spell."

"Ahem..." Louis coughed violently, interrupting Snape's words.

"Speak directly, Professor. I'm a little scared of you."

"I heard that the patron saint is not always the same. It will change when it suffers a big blow or a huge emotional change." Louis said meaningfully. He didn't say that on purpose, but on purpose.

As he was walking on the road, Louis called out the patron saint and the swallows were chirping around him. Although there was no sound, Louis could clearly feel that the swallows were chirping happily.

After a while, he said: "Well... it's quite expected, Yanzi..."

Those who didn't know thought it was Sun Wukong who came and threw a restraining spell on him.

"Dumbledore told me." Louis started to pull the flag: "You may not know that when Voldemort went to Godric's Hollow to kill Mrs. Potter..."

"Your pronunciation is wrong, think about it yourself." Snape said a reason that Louis couldn't accept.

"In addition, according to some books, Occlumency can effectively prevent being possessed by unknown entities." Snape added: "In the war a long time ago, wizards avoided being forcibly possessed by demons in this way."

Louis couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and quickly raised his wand and cast the spell again.

Louis was very understanding of the situation, leaving Snape who was still thinking about life.

I still remember the children's song I sang in my previous life, "Little Swallows, dressed in floral clothes, come here every spring."

Snape rolled his eyes in a classic old man manner: "For a British aristocrat like you who has a moral vacuum and puts profits first, not learning Occlumency is the biggest waste."

He inadvertently pronounced the "num" in "patronum" as "nam"...

Open the attribute bar and take a look. The mana that is automatically restored every minute is almost 200. Does a big business still care about this?

"My mother?" Louis controlled the swallow to fly to his hand and stood there, looking at the swallow and then at Snape: "Is it possible that the patron saint can also be inherited?"

The memories of the dead were attacking Louis crazily, and he didn't even notice Snape's words, "It's quite expected."

Porter: No cue.

"Look, just like now, your smile is very fake." Snape commented: "You don't have to smile if you don't know how to smile. Don't force yourself, Louis."

"Okay, let's change the topic - do you really think I have the talent in this area?" Louis asked with a smile.

There seems to be a trace of anger at him for not fighting—anger at himself for not fighting for his failure to live up to the high expectations of his senior sister.

I asked Yanzi why you came, and Yanzi said, take care of yourself first...

Ye Ziyan saw the patron saint of swallows standing on Louis' shoulder, his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Louis, can you summon the patron saint? This is... eh, this patron saint is the same as Sister Yu's! It seems that you are really

Her child..."

Louis said quickly: "After that, her ancient curse protected Harry, but when the Death Curse rebounded, it also tore out a part of Voldemort's soul and possessed Harry. This is why Harry is in this situation."

That's why Voldemort would have a headache when he stared at the back of Quirrell's head when he entered the first grade."

You know, Harry's problem is that his emotions are always too close to the surface, and he's too hurt in a way. But at the same time, he's also very aware of what he's feeling about what he's going through. He doesn't.

Suppressing his emotions, but facing them very honestly, he couldn't suppress them, couldn't suppress those memories.

Louis had once read in a book in the restricted area that Occlumency was a prerequisite for defeating the Legilimency's ability to detect lies, using questionable practices such as avoiding face-to-face or eye contact in the process.

"Legilimency!"

This time it was not only the misty mist just now, but also many silver filaments. Suddenly, a little bird flew out of the mist, flapping its wings and flying in the air. Louis always felt very strange.

It looks familiar, but I can’t remember what kind of bird it is.

"I think back then, Emma...your mother's patron saint was the swallow." Snape looked at the swallow that was still flying, thoughtfully.

Occlumency with the addition of the Heart of Oak, the Spirit Sword and the Eye of Grifon is pretty good, at least Snape slowly put down the wand in his hand.

He didn't want his memory to be read by a middle-aged greasy old man who didn't wash his hair. He was not Harry...

But...he thought about it carefully, and it seemed that he had probably pronounced it wrong.

Louis was a bit worried about this. He was not a cheap person, but he just felt that he didn't quite understand what kind of medicine Snape was selling in his gourd.

Snape's eyelids drooped down and he sneered: "Occlumency requires people to suppress certain emotions. And you, Louis, a little wizard of your age, I have never seen such a happy person like you." Your anger is invisible, and sometimes I even wonder if the smile you show is genuine."

"Say." Snape spoke concisely.

"Ahem." Louis coughed, and then the two women noticed Louis' presence and raised their heads.

"You will be an excellent Occlumency master, Louis." For the first time, Snape did not spit out venom, but praised Louis.

There was no one between Snape's office and his own, so no one noticed his Patronus Charm. When he returned to the office, Ye Ziyan and Christasa happened to be playing Wizard Legend.

Louis looked around, opened the door and walked in. After turning around and closing the door, he said to Snape: "Harry has...well, there is the remnant soul of Voldemort..."

To be honest, this doesn't match his painting style. It's not that I look down on Yanzi, I just feel that his painting style doesn't match.

Louis:…

"That's not necessary, Professor." Louis spread his hands, "It was just a beautiful accident, and you don't need to worry too much."

"By the way, Professor." Louis poked his head back from the door and entered Snape's office.

"I understand somewhat." Louis said, his eyes becoming blank again.

As if he was used to Louis' killing of donkeys, Snape waved his hand impatiently and chased Louis away like flies.

Wang Fa? I am Wang Fa!

He controlled the patron saint swallow to fly around the house with some unfamiliarity. As he flew, he wondered in his mind why his patron saint was a swallow.

Still a barn swallow.

Louis struck while the iron was hot: "After all, Professor, you don't want Harry to be controlled by Voldemort, right? Think about it, if Harry found a deserted underworld and quietly killed him after being controlled by Voldemort, look at his pair of eyes. In those beautiful green eyes, what exactly..."

On the contrary, Snape looked at the bird with a feeling of nostalgia.

Snape was stunned for a moment, and seemed to believe what he said.

"Expecto Patronum! (Calling God to Protect)"

After being speechless for a while, he said as if he suddenly remembered something: "According to what you said, I actually think Draco is extremely talented in Occlumency, but Harry probably does not have the talent for Occlumency.

"Your head... just now..." Snape said with some disgust: "If a winged demon opens your brain, you will definitely leave disappointed..."

"You can ask Ms. Liv when you go back." Snape pointed to Ye Ziyan: "Perhaps a wizard from the mysterious Eastern country can answer this question for you well."

"What are you talking about? How could I not be born to my mother?" Louis rolled his eyes. If I wasn't my mother's son, who else could I be?

"No, what I mean is." Ye Ziyan stood up and reached out to hook the swallow's virtual beak, "You inherited the bloodline of Sister Yu. This is the reason why you can summon the patron saint of swallows."

"Are you kidding, Zi Zi." Louis looked down at the swallow, and then at Zi Ziyan: "Why don't I see anything special about it?"

"Of course, this is no ordinary swallow." Ye Ziyan's eyes wandered and he whispered an ancient poem -
