Study Days at Hogwarts

After breakfast, everyone went to the first divination class of school together.

The divination class classroom is on the top of the north tower. That place is far away from the castle. It takes at least ten minutes to walk. Walking up the spiral staircase is a test for the students who go to the divination class.

It is worth mentioning that there are actually many students who choose the Divination class. This class is the first choice for students who choose to make up numbers, and is more popular than Muggle Studies.

No way, the homework in divination classes is usually relatively simple. You just need to make up some bad things, and you can easily fool them. It doesn't take much time and energy, let alone study hard, because most students don't know how to do it at all. If you can't learn divination, you can only learn some common sense about divination.

By the way, [\\Mi\\Mi\\Reading\\\\\\] is really good and worth installing. After all, you can cache and read books offline!

There is no way, divination requires talent.

Very few can truly predict the future.

"Is there a shortcut? It's really difficult."

Lee Jordan asked breathlessly. It took them at least fifteen minutes to get to the small platform below the divination classroom. There were already several people around who had arrived earlier than them.

"Unfortunately, there is no shortcut to get here directly." Fred took a big breath, and then said after taking a steady breath, "However, there is a secret passage, but don't expect it to be much faster."

"Where is the shortcut?" Angelina asked immediately.

"Behind the nun's portrait on the third floor." Fred didn't hide anything. "It leads to the fifth floor, but you still have to climb the stairs here."

"I hate the stairs here," Albert muttered. The stairs they came up from were very narrow and spiraled upwards. When they climbed up, he felt an inexplicable dizziness.

"This is my first class, what about you?" Albert noticed Katrina looking over, and took the initiative to say hello to her, saying something that others couldn't understand.

"I just came from the math divination place." Katrina said anxiously, "It's really annoying."

"What are you talking about?" Fred asked with raised eyebrows. He felt that the conversation between these two guys was a bit inexplicable.

"Where is the divination classroom?" George looked around and asked with a frown.

"Redheads are indeed a bunch of idiots." Graham Montague's sarcastic voice came from the side.

The relationship between Gryffindor and Slytherin has always been very bad, especially among the Quidditch players.

"When did even the gorilla have the right to call others stupid?" The twins looked at Graham Montague and said seriously.

Montague didn't refute, because someone cast a spell and his tongue was stuck to the roof of his mouth. He couldn't speak for a moment, let alone refute the twins' words.

He pointed his finger at his tongue, and then gestured towards his partner. His cheeks turned red from the frustration, and in the end he almost punched the twins directly, but his partner stopped him.

Before Fred could continue to taunt the other party, the trap door above suddenly opened, and a silver ladder was lowered. Seeing this, the others stopped watching the fun and climbed up one after another.

"Great job!" George winked at Albert, feeling very happy.

Albert pretended not to hear and looked at the divination classroom. It's less like a classroom and more like a cross between an attic and an old-fashioned teahouse.

The classroom was very warm, surrounded by a bunch of small round tables, each with a few armchairs and soft little cushions. There was a fire burning in the fireplace next to it, and a large copper kettle was burning on the fire. The curtains were closed, and the surrounding lamps were covered with dark red lampshades, creating a strange atmosphere.

The circular walls were surrounded by shelves filled with dusty feathers, candle stubs, old playing cards, countless divination crystal balls and a large collection of tea sets.

"Welcome to Divination," Professor Trelawney said to all the students. "I am Professor Trelawney. You may not have seen me before."

"Divination is the most difficult course among all magical arts." Professor Trelawney said in a soft and fuzzy voice: "So, I must remind you at the beginning: If you don't have 'sight', then I There is very little that can be taught to you, and books can only take you so far in this regard..."

After hearing these words, everyone looked at each other in shock, and most people failed to understand the meaning of Professor Trelawney's words.

"She means this book isn't of much use?" Katrina asked Albert with a frown.

"What she means is that divination classes require talent. If you don't have talent, it will be like that." Albert explained in a low voice, "There are actually very few wizards who can truly predict the future."

"Mr. Anderson is right," Professor Trelawney walked up to Albert at some point and said to him with a smile, "I'm glad you can come to my class."

Many people looked at Albert, leaving him wondering what to say.

"Sit down, everyone, please sit down first!"

Professor Trelawney sat in an armchair in front of the fireplace and continued: "This year we will learn various basic methods of divination. In the first semester, we will learn how to read tea leaves. Next semester we should learn palmistry. By the way, I don’t expect to be able to teach you how to predict the future, as Mr. Anderson said, there are actually very few wizards who can truly predict the future, but I can let you understand the most basic common sense and basic usage of divination.”

The students began to whisper.

"In the summer semester," Professor Trelawney continued, pretending not to hear, "we will learn to see the crystal ball. This is also the most important thing we learn. If you have 'sight', the crystal ball will take you on a journey." Entering a whole new realm.”

"I remember that Albert seemed to be able to see things from the crystal ball?" Lee Jordan muttered in a low voice, not knowing whether it was intentional or not.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Anderson already has 'sight'." Professor Trelawney looked at Albert up and down and suddenly said, "Then, why don't we let him show it to us?"

Albert glared at Lee Jordan fiercely, then at Professor Trelawney's urging, he sat down on the seat next to Professor Trelawney with the gazes of countless students.

Professor Trelawney placed a crystal ball in front of Albert.

At this moment, all the students gathered around, seeming to want to see how Albert predicted the future.

Albert stared at the crystal ball and reached out to brush it over it. The silver mist began to rotate, and there were faint shadows moving inside.

He stared seriously at the fog in the crystal ball, thinking about what he wanted to know in his mind.

With the last experience, Albert did not doubt that he would fail.

"What do you see?"

Professor Trelawney's voice seemed to float from afar.

"A pool of silver liquid."

"A pool of silver liquid?" Professor Trelawney repeated doubtfully.

"I was predicting the possible danger just now." Albert said softly, "I saw a pool of silver liquid."

"What do you think that is?" Professor Trelawney asked.

"The blood of unicorns." Albert said with certainty, "As far as I know, the blood of unicorns is silver."

"Is there a unicorn body next to the blood?"

"No." Albert said firmly, "I only saw a pool of silver blood."

"What do you think this means?" Professor Trelawney continued.

"It's very dangerous in the Forbidden Forest." Albert said cooperatively.

At this moment, everyone exploded and started whispering.

"Everyone knows that the Forbidden Forest is very dangerous." Several Slytherin students couldn't help but sneered.

"I think you can organize Slytherin students to go for a walk in the Forbidden Forest." Fred sarcastically said, "Maybe you will have incredible adventures."

"Quiet!"

Professor Trelawney had to raise her voice to suppress all the commotion, "Mr. Anderson, continue."

"As far as I know, unicorns are magical creatures with strong magic power. Very few things in the Forbidden Forest can harm them. This is a bad omen." Albert said calmly.

Professor Trelawney looked at the crystal ball on the table and then at Albert.

To be honest, she wasn't sure whether Albert could use a crystal ball to make predictions.

During her time teaching at Hogwarts, Professor Trelawney had never met a student who truly had the gift of prophecy, but she did see a momentary change in Albert's face just now. Maybe he really saw it from the crystal ball. Something arrived.

In fact, Professor Trelawney really guessed it right.

Albert had really predicted the possible dangers in Hogwarts just now, and he also predicted it. In the blur of fog, Albert saw a scarf on the crystal ball.

He realized immediately what it was: that ridiculous scarf wrapped around Quirrell's head.

It was impossible for Albert to tell the story, so he could only make up a true prophecy to keep his roommates who liked to commit suicide away from the Forbidden Forest.

"Professor Trelawney." Albert said suddenly, "I have a question."

"What's the problem?" Professor Trelawney said.

"Why can't I see my prediction so clearly?" Albert said. "As far as I know, a real prophet can make himself and others see what appears in the crystal ball."

"Yes, yes, many people think that is the case." Professor Trelawney looked at Albert with a complex expression and replied softly, "However, few people know that this kind of talent can only be achieved by extremely talented people. Only a few people have it.”

"But having talent doesn't mean you can do it right away. You need training, you need to try, and you also need this part of the knowledge." She continued, "I suggest you read "Looking Through the Fog to See the Future" first. This book The book will take you into the world of fortune tellers, but you don’t have to pay too much attention to it, because its function is only that.”

"Okay, go back to your seat, we are going to start class." Professor Trelawney added, "Twenty points for Gryffindor. You are indeed very talented in this area."

Perhaps because of Albert's stimulation, everyone was extra attentive in class. They all hoped to have the ability to predict the future like Albert.

No one should think that they are not good enough.

"Did you really see it?" Lee Jordan finally couldn't help asking when Professor Trelawney was teaching everyone how to use tea leaves for divination.

"What do you think?" Albert asked expressionlessly.

Katrina next to her was very crazy. She was not sure whether Albert could really use the crystal ball to make predictions, but with just a few words, she was able to get twenty points from Professor Trelawney. It was really disappointing to her. Can not accept.
