Starting Over at Hogwarts

Chapter 48 Magic is too difficult, can you use it without moving your fingers?

this class.

Vincent Wright listened very carefully.

Professor Amelia Bones did not introduce how to resist and defend against dark creatures. Perhaps she felt that the first class should give students a deeper understanding.

The new professor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, the first class has been introducing the criminal history of dark wizards, and telling the harm of black art to the entire magic world.

even…

She didn't shy away from mentioning the Dark Lord Voldemort.

"When a black mark appeared in the sky of a house..."

When Amelia Bones said this, she frowned slightly and continued: "People already know that there are only a bunch of corpses left in that house, which are the Dark Lord and his Death Eater. gangsters who take pleasure in killing with impunity."

"In that dark age, every wizard was worried that the Dark Mark would appear in their home before going out. They were afraid that when they returned home, they would only see their family members who were saying goodbye in the morning, and only at night. The cold corpses left..."

"..."

A group of young wizards trembled when they heard this.

This was the first time they had heard someone talk about that cruel history. Several young wizards' families had died at the hands of Death Eaters, and they even cried outright.

However, what these little wizards didn't know was that when the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor talked about this period of history, he felt even more sad than the little wizards.

Because Professor Amelia Burns experienced that dark age firsthand, and even her brother Edgar Burns' family died at the hands of a group of Death Eaters.

Yes.

The story the female professor told was her own experience.

When she and her younger brother rushed to his elder brother's house back then, they saw a huge black mark floating in the sky of his elder brother's house, and they only saw the corpses of his elder brother's family.

The grief and helplessness...

It was all experienced by Professor Amelia Bones.

However, this female professor is very strong. She did not show the slightest weakness or sadness, but continued calmly: "Whether it is to protect myself, or to protect my family and cherished friends, I hope everyone present Every freshman can learn how to resist dark wizards through the Defense Against the Dark Arts class..."

"..."

A group of young wizards immediately raised their heads.

Although Amelia Bones' education method is a bit cruel, it still does not prevent the professor who is about to be promoted to a senior official of the Ministry of Magic from having a high teaching level.

At least…

There is no one who does not feel that Defense Against the Dark Arts is not important.

Perhaps that was the purpose of Amelia Burns teaching her first class. She taught so successfully that even Vincent Wright was captivated by the way she taught.

the difference is.

The other little wizards trembled.

Vincent Wright is taking lessons seriously.

The bad things Voldemort and the Death Eaters have done are lessons that Vincent Wright needs to remember. A Dark Lord who only knows how to create terror is destined to be impossible to succeed.

As a Dark Lord...

Don't act recklessly, act without leaving anything behind.

At least like Wesson's own disguised Peter Pettigrew, right?

With the end of the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class, all the little wizards have realized the importance of learning this class, because only this class will teach them to fight in the way of wizards.

Perhaps this is the gap between people.

Some are just realizing the importance of learning, and some have learned from the lessons of their predecessors who failed to become the Dark Lord.

This is not only a difference in cognition of the world, but also a difference in moral character. Whose brain circuit will be like Vincent Wright?

Compared with Professor Amelia of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class,

Professor Flitwick, the teacher of the Charms class, looks a lot like a learned wizard.

Professor Flitwick is Head of Ravenclaw House.

The Charms professor was actually very short, only about one meter tall, a bit like a dwarf, with fluffy gray hair and a beard, and he was a teacher who had taught at Hogwarts for many years.

Even in the whole of Hogwarts.

Professor Flitwick was also highly respected.

certainly.

This does not mean that the professor is not interesting, in fact, Professor Flitwick was a wizard dueling champion when he was young, which has always been talked about by the students of Ravenclaw College.

Quite a few people at Hogwarts know it.

The Hogwarts sorting hat is not omnipotent, it took a long time to judge and sort the two new students into the appropriate house.

One of them was Professor Flitwick.

The other was Professor Minerva McGonagall.

Both of them were considered by the Sorting Hat to have the characteristics of both Gryffindor and Ravenclaw when they were teenagers. Professor McGonagall was assigned to Gryffindor College, and Professor Flitwick was assigned to Ravenclaw. Law School.

It's also the funniest.

If they happened to be assigned to another college at that time, maybe the dean status of the two of them could just be swapped.

It also proved that Professor Flitwick was not lacking in courage.

but…

Professor Flitwick still had to stand on a thick stack of textbooks in class, otherwise most students might not see him.

If nothing else...

Vincent Wright felt that he would win Professor Flitwick's praise in the Charms class, and maybe he could add a lot of house points to Hufflepuff College.

Because before school started, Vincent Wright had been sitting at home and painstakingly transcribing and reciting the spells hundreds of times, learning all the spells that should be learned in the first grade.

Why so hard!

Isn't it just for this time today!

Wesson Wright intends to make a good impression on Professor Flitwick in the first class, so that he will have the opportunity to build a good relationship with the head of Ravenclaw College, and maybe he will get it from Professor Flitwick in the future. It's not a very popular spell at all.

However…

There was still a little hiccup in the middle.

"What does a successful spell include?"

Professor Flitwick stood on a stack of thick textbooks, waved his wand and wrote a line on the blackboard: "A precise swing of the wand, and a pitch that sings the correct spell, accompanied by your brain The will to guide the magic power, at this time a spell is cast successfully, let's practice waving the wand first..."

"..."

Vincent Wright felt stupid.

Why did he have to pay so much attention to the swing of his wand when casting magic? He didn't learn this at all!

And isn't something like magic just a matter of moving your fingers? How can there be such sharp requirements on the width of the wand wave and the pitch of the incantation?

this kind of thing...

It's embarrassing Weisen!

Professor Flitwick really wasn't trying to embarrass Vincent Wright on purpose.

Because the well-known Ravenclaw headmaster has heard of Wesson Wright's learning method, and even praised Weson Wright full of praise.

"Maybe everyone can learn from Mr. Wright..."

Professor Flitwick looked at Wesson Wright, and he didn't hesitate to praise him: "As long as everyone can recite a lot of memory like Mr. Wright, and skillfully change the range of wand waving and the pitch of chanting spells into their own subconscious Instincts, such as the levitation spell and fire spell he used are very proficient..."

"..."

Vincent Wright's eyes were a little dazed.

Do not.

You are wrong, Professor Flitwick.

Of course, Wesson can't tell Professor Flitwick, in fact, he has been pretending to wave and yell casually all the time...

Why does it matter how much you swing your wand?

Isn't that just a couple of swipes with the wand?

Why is it important to pay attention to pitch when chanting mantras?

Isn't that just opening your mouth and saying the words casually?

Why are there so many steps to casting magic?

Isn't that just moving your fingers or blinking your eyes?

to be frank…
