Study Days at Hogwarts

Having just finished the Apparition class, Albert followed the dejected students back to Hogwarts Castle.

"Why do I feel that something is wrong with the way Snape looks at you?" George reminded in a low voice.

"Just ignore it. It's useless even if he stares his eyes out anyway." Albert signaled that they don't need to care. Ever since he declined Snape's "make-up lessons", the Potions Master had looked at him less kindly.

Well, it should be said that Snape was never friendly towards students outside of Slytherin House.

But he would not trouble Albert because of that matter.

Of course, even if you want to trouble Albert, it will probably be useless. Snape must be very aware of this, and there is no major conflict between the two parties. There is no need to make the matter a big deal, so the matter will naturally be settled.

"That's why you don't take him seriously." Fred chuckled, "If others encounter him, they won't be scared to death."

Lee Jordan secretly glanced at Snape not far away, shrugged and said, "There is nothing we can do about it."

"Be careful if you are overheard. I might find an excuse to lock you in confinement."

"Don't tell me, it's really possible."

Fred, George and Lee Jordan all stopped going to Potions class. As long as they didn't make random jokes in front of Snape, there was nothing he could do about them.

As for the "tutoring" matter, naturally it was settled.

That afternoon, Albert took the time to knock on the door of Professor Flitwick's office.

"Sit down, Mr. Anderson. What would you like to drink?" Professor Flitwick asked sharply.

"Black tea." Albert pulled up a chair and sat opposite Professor Flitwick.

"Are you confused about what fighting skills I plan to teach you, right?" Professor Flitwick seemed to see through Albert's doubts and said to himself: "Everyone's fighting style has its own characteristics, such as Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall are better at using transformation magic to deal with enemies, and I am good at using spells. As for you, in my opinion, you have many advantages, and today we will discuss your advantages and understand your own advantages. And you can quickly improve your strength by making better use of your own advantages."

"Advantage?" Albert asked.

"I noticed that you use the silent spell very well. This is a great advantage." Professor Flitwick handed the steaming black tea to Albert. "Most wizards can't do whatever they want like you." Use the Silent Spell, I think you should be very clear about the advantages of mastering the Silent Spell?"

"Others don't know what magic you can use." Albert added in his mind, "It's very suitable for sneak attacks on others."

Well, Albert has been doing this all the time, using the Silent Curse combined with the Disillusionment Curse. He doesn't know how many unlucky Hogwarts students have been put down silently. It's really effective against rookies.

"You are right. Silent spells can give you an advantage. In magic confrontations, this has a strong advantage, especially those extraordinary wizards who can do this and use it to take advantage. , counterattack in advance and interrupt the opponent's spell casting."

"How to counter other people's spell casting? Are there any special skills?" Albert has never learned it. Although he can indeed cast spells to interrupt other people's spell casting, it is only at an ordinary level.

"Write it down first, I will teach you next time." Professor Flitwick continued, "I can see that your magical power is very powerful. To be honest, your magical power is definitely the best among all the Hogwarts students in the past. Being able to rank high is also a big advantage for you, which means that certain spells can have 'special effects' in your hand."

"Stunning spell? Full body binding spell?"

"Yes, the probability that a wizard knocked down by a coma spell will faint directly is actually not high, but for you who are powerful in magic, ordinary spells can be very powerful and can easily knock down others or kill others. It subdues the opponent and makes the opponent lose the ability to resist. Whether it is black magic or ordinary spells, as long as it can defeat the enemy and make it lose the ability to fight directly." Professor Flitwick believes that as long as Albert grows up completely, he will definitely To be a wizard like Dumbledore.

Albert nodded noncommittally to show that he understood. In fact, he did so, knowing this very well.

"What should I do if I encounter a powerful wizard who easily breaks all my spells, or uses some magic to block my spells?" Albert asked, "You should know that some spells can be easily blocked. Guard against it, no matter how powerful it is, no matter how fast you cast the spell, it will be useless."

As he spoke, Albert raised his wand and turned it in a circle towards the teacup on the table. A translucent barrier covered the teacup on the table.

Ordinary spells cannot break through the protective barrier at all, but black magic can, although the power of black magic will greatly weaken the defensive magic.

"This... is true, but I think with your strength, you should be able to use the explosive spell." Professor Flitwick thought for a while and said, "Powerful dark magic can be found in the restricted area of ​​​​the library. Quite a few, but I feel that those black magics are not as easy to use as many ordinary powerful magics, because the powerful black magic has many restrictions on its use, and you may hurt yourself if you don't use it well."

"I think the more important thing is that it is easy to use, but there are also some problems."

"I suggest you develop into advanced magic in the future." Professor Flitwick said while looking at the magic barrier holding the tea cup.

This is actually a very advanced usage.

This all shows that Albert is very good at magic spells.

Professor Flitwick suddenly understood what Albert meant by asking him to learn combat skills.

However, he still planned to finish what he wanted to say and try his best to point out a way for him. Professor Flitwick did not want Albert to get too involved in dark magic because of his pursuit of power.

"Do you know how the wizards of the Ministry of Magic usually deal with those powerful dark wizards?"

"Numerical advantage?" Albert said, "I heard that they will stick together closely, form a dense formation, and rely on their numerical advantage to attack the enemy."

"Yes, if hit by a large number of stun spells, not to mention the dark wizard, even the fire dragon will fall." Professor Flitwick nodded.

"Although this move is very powerful, I think it is not very effective against powerful wizards." Albert said, "A dense attack may be overwhelming, but it should not be effective against powerful wizards like Dumbledore." , after all, they can easily use the Iron Armor Curse to reflect the spell back."

Even Albert could withstand the onslaught of Fred, George and Lee Jordan.

Professor Flitwick: "..."

"Mr. Anderson, is your imaginary enemy a mysterious man?" Professor Flitwick asked tentatively.

"Yes, I think all enemies should be treated like mysterious people, so as not to fall over halfway." Albert said seriously.

Professor Flitwick fell silent again for a brief moment.

"Perhaps, after more than ten years, when your experience and magical power have reached the peak of your life, you can reach that level, but for you now, as long as you can reach my current level, you should be able to deal with most The Dark Wizard." Professor Flitwick said meaningfully.

Of course Albert knew this, and he never thought about becoming fat in one bite, so he listened quietly to Professor Flitwick continue.

Professor Flitwick probably wanted him to understand his own strengths first so that he could better utilize his power. "

Albert is very clear about his own advantages, but it is actually quite interesting to hear what others say. After all, everyone has different views and angles on things. Maybe he has other advantages that he doesn't know about, or maybe he has some advantages that he doesn't know about. Professor Wei has something special in mind.

"I heard that you are also very good at wandless magic." Professor Flitwick asked Albert.

"Not very good at it, but I can do it." Albert raised his hand and pointed at the tea cup, which soon floated slowly.

"This is a big advantage." Professor Flitwick looked at the teacup in front of him and nodded. "Most wizards use wands to guide magic, so that the effects of spells can be more accurate and effective. Transfiguration and spells can be performed without the use of wands." It is basically difficult to use in this situation, so in the eyes of most wizards, they will be wary of your wand, but not your other hand, so no one will expect you to do this, making it difficult for your opponents to guard against it. When you use it, it's best to subdue your enemy in one go."

"I will pay attention." Albert nodded.

Another point is that age is your advantage. Most wizards will look down on you because of your age and identity. Having this layer of cover is also an advantage for you.

In the eyes of Professor Flitwick, Albert has great advantages. As long as he knows how to use his advantages, most wizards who are not familiar with him will overturn, even himself.

However, Albert felt that this advantage was probably useless to Fake Moody. That guy had seen his own strength and was not an idiot. If he really wanted to kill him, he would definitely not take it lightly.

If he were fake Moody, he would definitely hide secretly, and then find an opportunity to use Avada Kedavra to take people away.

"Okay, let's talk about dark magic." Professor Flitwick lowered his voice and said, "To be honest, Dumbledore doesn't really like professors telling students these things, but if you really want to deal with dark magic, If so, you must have a certain understanding of them, how much do you know about black magic."

"Poisons, jinxes and curses in spells belong to 'dark spells', and among black spells, black spells that are mainly used to harm, control, or even kill victims are called black magic and affect black people. The strength of magic is usually related to the magic power of the spell caster and the determination to kill people. "Albert actually has some understanding of black magic, although he basically doesn't know how to use it.

"Basically correct. However, dark magic is actually a term." Professor Flitwick explained. "Dark magic usually refers to spells and actions that can be used to harm others, from powerful unforgivable curses to brewing harmful or poisonous potions and breeding dark creatures.? These actions are generally illegal in the wizarding world, and those who do so are called dark wizards."

"Of course, your understanding is actually correct. If you want black magic to be powerful, you must be cruel. This also leads to the fact that wizards who practice black magic and often use them are evil. This is why Dumbledore doesn't like students. One of the reasons for using black magic, but I have to remind you to treat black magic separately."

"Under any circumstances, do not try to kill someone. It is the most evil behavior. Killing people will make people lose respect for life. In fact, a large part of the reason for the cruelty and disregard for life of black wizards is the frequent use of black magic, just like you That said, it’s about the determination to kill someone.”

"Although I don't quite agree with what you said, you are right. Killing is one of the most evil acts. Killing makes people ignore life and become cruel." Albert nodded.

"Very good. It seems that at least we have reached a preliminary agreement on black magic."

"To deal with dark wizards, my suggestion is to knock them down and make them completely unable to resist, then hand them over to the Ministry of Magic and throw them into Azkaban to spend the rest of their lives." Professor Flitwick continued: "In this regard You have an advantage. With the powerful magic power, it is not difficult to subdue someone. "

"Of course, I think there is no harm in learning a few dark arts, as long as you don't abuse them. When the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic capture dark wizards, they sometimes use black magic to subdue the enemy, but there are a few things you need to remember. , never touch the Unforgivable Curse," Professor Flitwick warned.

"What black magic do you think is more practical?" Albert asked.

"Explosion Curse, the upper and lower limits of this spell's power are very high, and its plasticity is also very high. It is very suitable for you to use." Professor Flitwick did not intend to teach Albert any dangerous black magic.

Albert nodded and said he would use it.

"I will teach you how to use this spell then, and maybe it can provide you with some inspiration." Professor Flitwick decided to give Albert a try in the next class to see what level he has reached now.

"Is there anything else you want to learn?"

"I want to learn a spell that can prevent most of the black magic." Albert said bluntly, "The Iron Armor Curse is not very useful, is it? Although it can block most of the magic spells, it can't deal with those evil spirits." The effect of black magic is much worse."

If possible, Albert actually wanted to learn more protective magic from Professor Flitwick. He felt that Dumbledore should know a lot, and he should find time to see if he could learn something secretly from the principal. .

To be honest, Albert felt that the defensive magic he mastered was a bit monotonous, and in the forbidden book area, there were quite few similar protective magics.

"There are not many protective spells that can prevent dark magic, but I have a way to solve this problem. I will teach you how to do it when the time comes." Professor Flitwick also knows a lot of spells, "We will go to the eighth floor next time Try it in the Room of Requirement. Do you know that room?

"I still use it occasionally."

"That's good. When we go there, remember to bring your wand. When you go in, you need a place to practice magic." Professor Flitwick and Albert agreed on a time and place to meet.
