Study Days at Hogwarts

After the final exams, Hogwarts school is filled with a cheerful atmosphere again, and students who have finished their exams are enjoying the last few days of leisure before the holidays. At this time, the news that the Wizard Card Club planned to hold a party quickly spread among the students.

However, at this point in time, most students are not very interested in joining clubs.

After finally getting through the final exams, everyone prefers to enjoy the relaxation and comfort after the exams on a sunny field. Many students plan to go to the Quidditch field to play ball, enjoy the leisure time, and vent their savings during the exams. pressure.

There are very few students willing to join the Wizard Card Club, at least compared to the original members of the Wizard Card Club, but there is nothing that can be done about it.

Albert was not surprised by this. At least twenty people were willing to come and did not fall into the embarrassing situation of no one attending the party.

Students who are willing to participate in the Wizard Card Party are relatively enthusiastic about Wizard Cards. Naturally, Albert will not disappoint them. After officially completing the ceremony for Luna to take over the club, Luna took the lead in holding a relaxing party. The competition offers extremely rich prizes, which can be regarded as a promotion for the "Happy House" products.

Originally, Fred and Lee Jordan wanted to use "Flag Joke Shop" as the name of their store, but both Albert and George thought the name was strange, so they eventually changed it to "Fun House", which is said to be a store that can bring joy.

Everyone had a great time at this party. Not only did they taste ice-cold butterbeer, but also a variety of delicious sweets. They could also win prizes through competitions, including Albert's newly published "Self-Defense Guide" or Frey's Dark magic defense props and joke props made by De and George.

"Does this thing really work?" Hermione held the pocket watch she had drawn and curiously looked up and down at the magical thing in front of her.

"Of course it works, this is the latest product," Fred introduced enthusiastically: "Invented by Albert, as long as there is danger nearby, the pocket watch will heat up to alert the user. It is a bit similar to a looking glass, but the looking glass thing It’s so unreliable. Once I make a sound, don’t I tell others that I am here?”

"Once there is a dark wizard or dark creature around, it can tell the user which direction the enemy is coming from, so as to avoid running into it directly. Isn't it very effective?" George took out a similar pocket watch and said, "The only drawback is that the effect is only about It lasts for half a year.”

"Of course, this is a mass-produced version. If you want a more perfect black magic warning device, you can only ask Albert to customize it, but the price will be so expensive that you will doubt your life." Fred reminded with a shrug.

"Are you sure you are running a joke shop and not a shop for defense against the Dark Arts?" Ron had just tested the defense badge, which actually reflected Harry's obstacle spell.

Although Harry had used similar gadgets before, only by personally testing them could he truly appreciate the magic of these defensive props.

"Since the resurrection of the mysterious man, the entire magical world has been unsafe, so Albert took the initiative to share his research results with everyone." George introduced, "By the way, where are the Alberts?"

Everyone looked around for Albert, and finally found Albert talking to Luna in the corner.

Soon Albert was pulled back by Lee Jordan to introduce these magical defense against dark arts props.

"As we all know, the magic world is not at peace now. Everyone..." Albert was actually surprised why this group of people liked to listen to him so much, but he still restrained himself and briefly talked about the current situation.

A simple summary is:

The wizarding world is going to be in chaos, the Ministry of Magic is unreliable, and wizards born in Muggle families will be in big trouble. It is recommended that you learn some means of self-protection. Most of the vendors selling amulets are scammers. Don't believe it. Fred and George's dark magic defense tools are not as magical as you think. They need to be used wisely.

"Mr. Anderson, can you create an amulet that resists dark magic?" the famous Hufflepuff girl asked curiously.

"No way, most black magic is difficult to resist directly with spells." Albert shook his head, "Amulets can only deal with some small magic, small evil curses, etc., of course, they can weaken black magic to some extent. power, but don’t expect too much.”

"Keyou is the champion of the duel competition and has defeated many dark wizards. I think you must know how to deal with those evil villains."

"If you are really in big trouble, my advice is to calm down first. If you can't calm down, it's best to take some sedatives. It's important to deal with it calmly.

Moreover, it is best to discover the enemy's traces in advance, and then use a disembodiment spell or an invisibility cloak to hide yourself. If possible, it is best not to confront them head-on. If you have to counterattack, it is best to hide yourself first, and then use the stun spell to sneak up on the enemy. "Albert suggested.

"Stunning spell?"

"Yes, the coma spell. This spell is actually more practical than most spells. Of course, it can also be a freezing spell or a full body binding spell." Albert explained, "As long as the enemy can be subdued, it is considered a win, so there is no need at all. Pursue magic that looks powerful."

"Don't go head-to-head with the dark wizards. To be honest, it's hard for you to defeat them unless you use sneak attacks. Knocking down the enemy in one go is your best option. After knocking the enemy down, remember to hit them a few more times. Spell to ensure that the enemy is completely subdued. If necessary, remember to use the flying charm to take away the opponent's wand. Remember, without the wand, most wizards will lose their deterrence. "

"There are no such things in the self-defense guide." Cedric joked with a smile, "It seems that you have hidden a lot of good things in private."

"If you write it down, it won't be published." Albert said helplessly, "There are some things that the Ministry of Magic does not allow to appear in books, so I can only teach you secretly now."

"Then how do we deal with dark magic?"

"I suggest you turn around and run away when you are in danger, use the Disillusionment Curse to hide, or apparate and escape." Albert said, "Running away is never a shameful thing, and I never recommend that you inexperienced people follow the gang. Fighting wizards will put you in danger."

The second half of the Wizard Card Club turned into Albert's lecture on Defense Against Dark Arts. He taught everyone what to do, how to use the defense items against Dark Arts sold in Fred and George's shop, and how to survive the following turmoil. protect yourself.

Everyone listened attentively, and many people wanted to pick up their quills and take notes, because what Albert said was very practical.

It was not until dinner in the evening that everyone let Albert go.

"I think you should summarize these things and write them in the Self-Defense Guide." Cedric felt that he was really knowledgeable.

"There are always a lot of helpless things in this world."

The news about the Wizarding Card Club spread quickly in Hogwarts. Many members of the Wizarding Card Club regretted not going to the party. Especially after the things that Albert said spread among the students, many students were confused. Think Dumbledore should hire Albert as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Everyone hoped that Albert could give them a few more Defense Against the Dark Arts lessons, but they soon discovered that Albert was missing again.

In the end, this important task was handed over to Harry. Harry, Hermione and Cedric gathered everyone to sort out the contents of Albert's lectures.

Fred and George's defensive props also began to be circulated among students. Especially the protective props that could deflect magic and curses were widely welcomed. They believed that the money tree of Defense Against the Dark Arts would quickly make them rich.

At the year-end party, Dumbledore gave a rare half-hour solemn speech, reminding everyone again of Voldemort's resurrection.

What surprised everyone the most was that Gryffindor actually won the Academy Cup this year.

Although all the gems in the hourglass of other houses except Slytherin have been deducted, Dumbledore still adds points to other houses, in the name of reminding everyone that the mysterious man is back.

It's just that Gryffindor gained the most points because of Harry, which directly caused Slytherin House, which had a chance of winning, to become a laughing stock.

Snape wasn't happy about this and kept a straight face all night, like someone owed him a bunch of galleons.

On the day he left school, Albert became very busy. He needed to personally distribute silver cards to invited friends and explain the risks to them.

Everyone was shocked when they learned that Albert was about to get married.

"For some reasons, the wedding has been postponed, just next month." Albert did not forget to remind them again, lest they spread the news randomly and provoke the Death Eaters.

Albert had a way to ensure the privacy and security of the wedding, but if he was targeted by Death Eaters due to rumors, he could only hope for luck.

"You're getting married!" Hermione's eyes widened in surprise.

"Yes, this is the invitation card, and the time will be on it." Albert reminded as he handed the silver card to Hermione, "But you'd better keep this secret, because I have offended the mysterious man and the Death Eater. "They will probably find out the specific time and place by inviting people."

"Oh, congratulations!"

Hermione took the card and said worriedly, "But is it really okay?"

"Of course, I also invited Dumbledore, so don't worry too much." Albert added before leaving, "Due to Potter's situation, I did not invite him."

Albert would not be tempted to invite Harry Potter, the big troublemaker.

After Albert left, Hermione looked at the silver card in her hand and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"Get married!"

She really didn't expect that Albert planned to get married so early, and almost right after graduating from school.

Although Albert wanted others to keep it secret, word spread among the girls.

"I told you a long time ago that you can't hide this kind of thing. Maybe you should wait until after the holiday to send the card to them, so there won't be such a problem."

On the way to cross the lake, Lee Jordan said with an innocent face that this matter really had nothing to do with him.

"The secret is actually more to protect them. I'm just worried that they will be visited by Death Eaters because of the leak, and therefore lose their lives." Albert's tone was full of helplessness.

If someone suffered bad luck because of this, there was nothing he could do about it.

"No way, I thought you would be more worried..." Li Jordan raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously a little surprised that Albert would say such a thing.

"I have done the most rigorous screening. Even if I use the Soul Imperius Curse or even the compound potion, I can still screen them out. As for the specific location, no one can enter except those who are invited." Albert We have been preparing for this for a long time and have taken the strictest protection measures to ensure that there will be no accidents during the entire wedding.

"Everyone get on the boat, everyone get on the boat. A small boat can hold two people and get ready to cross the lake." After Hagrid stood on the shore to make sure everyone was on the boat, he took a boat by himself and shouted, "Let's move forward." !”

A group of small boats sailed across the lake in the cool breeze, and everyone looked back at the huge castle that was gradually going away.

"Lower your head!" Hagrid shouted.

As the boat approached the cliff, everyone lowered their heads. The sight of Hogwarts Castle gradually fading away made everyone feel mixed.

They have been at Hogwarts for seven years, but today they are officially leaving.

The lake crossing ceremony did not last long. Everyone got off the boat with mixed emotions. Next, they had to go to the train station and leave on the Hogwarts Express.

"Aren't you leaving?" Angelina asked confused.

"No, you go first, we have to wait for someone, and we will apparate and leave later." Albert smiled and waved goodbye to everyone.

A beautiful silhouette walked towards this side and gave Albert and Katrina a warm hug.

Many boys whistled, and the girls felt sour in their hearts.

"Goodbye Albert." Hagrid waved to Albert and led the seventh-grade graduates across the lake toward the train station.

"What are you looking at?" Isobel asked.

"Watching Hogwarts."

Albert looked at the ancient castle in the distance and said softly, "What a magical place."

Just now, Albert confirmed that he had completed the mission of "Millennium Ancient School: Hogwarts". Although the final progress was stuck at 81.5%, the completion progress was actually very high, and Albert gained a lot. A big wave of experience and skill points.

"Can't bear to leave now?" Katrina was a little surprised at Albert's sentimentality.

"I am still very grateful for that owl letter from the past. That letter changed my life. Otherwise, I would probably still be working hard for money like most Muggles." Albert withdrew his gaze and looked at Yi Zebel said with a smile, "Let's go back too."

"Let's go."

Isobel stretched out her hand towards Katrina, and Katrina reached out to suppress her hair that was blown by the breeze, and put her hand up with a look of helplessness on her face.

A leaf fell on the black lake, causing ripples. The three people standing by the lake had already disappeared.

(End of this volume)

I have finished another volume. I have been busy with a lot of things recently, but I have finally finished this volume. This volume actually pays more attention to everyone's growth, and as the grindstone on everyone's growth path, Umbridge is fully utilized and has more scenes. It's time for Voldemort to get his lunch in the next volume.
