The Plane Merchant of Hogwarts

Rolf slowly opened the cover of the book, his hands still trembling slightly, not because he was afraid of being caught wandering at night, but because he knew that an unknown piece of history was about to be revealed before his eyes.

On the title page, apart from a blank space, there is only one sentence written in the center, which makes the reader's eyes involuntarily focus on it.

"Magic does not come out of thin air, nor does magic, and of course, neither do gods!"

Rolf read this sentence carefully, and it seemed that a different emotion was slowly emerging in his body.

Different from the Western church's propaganda that human beings were created by God, although Eastern mythology also has legends about Nuwa creating humans, there are also legends about immortals.

One thing that makes people feel very strange is that in the East, which places the most emphasis on blood relationships, there are not many families with extraordinary powers in mythology.

However, in a Western mythology system that flaunts independence and freedom, family pantheon can be found everywhere.

From the vampire family model, to the Greek gods of Olympus headed by Zeus and Hera, and the Aesir headed by Odin.

These divine power systems linked by blood relationships can be found everywhere, which made Rolf couldn't help but have a guess...

Could the disappearance of these gods in the Harry Potter world be due to some problems in the family pantheon?

He continued to turn the pages of the book. The first chapter of the book was a title that made Rolf excited:

"Gods and Magic"

Rolf read slowly, but this book was obviously not a book handed down from ancient times, but was re-copied and written by later generations.

There are many incomprehensible words in it, which gave Rolf an extremely unbearable reading experience.

“The origin of the gods has long been unknown, and the gods we know are difficult to describe in detail, because many records of the gods have disappeared in the long river of history.

The known gods that we can still find records include the goddess of life, the god of light, the goddess of water, and the goddess of war. Other gods, except for some temples where no signs can be found, have been difficult to verify.

The above-mentioned gods have also disappeared from people's sight long ago. Counting from the time when the author is working on these materials, the gods have disappeared from people's eyes for thousands of years.

And we also know that many powerful magical arts come from these long-lost gods.

The author was fortunate enough to once interview a priest to the Goddess of Life, but through conversations with her, I guess she doesn’t know as much about the gods she believes in as I do.”

Rolf watched the author describe his visit to the gods in his own voice, but there were very few truly meaningful things.

After reading this chapter, Rolf felt lonely, as if someone asked you if you have finished reading it? You said you have finished it.

But to give you a rough recap, you can only say that you should go and see it yourself, because you haven’t remembered anything. What you said seemed to make sense, but it seemed like it was all nonsense.

Rolf endured his patience and did not throw the book out. Instead, he continued to read down and roughly scanned the structure of the book.

In addition to the first chapter, there are different chapters such as "There is also the origin of magic", "Exploration of the relationship between divine arts and magic", "Comparison between ancient divine arts and ancient magic".

Looking at the title, it seemed to me that it was very awesome, but Rolf was really afraid that after patiently reading these chapters, he would still gain nothing.

But this thought soon disappeared, because when Rolf turned to the last chapter, he saw a topic that excited him:

"Ancient Divine Magic, Magical Textual Research and Examples"!

Could this part be about the specific use of magical spells? Rolf excitedly opened the book to the last part, ready to see what divine spells and ancient magics were in it.

But suddenly there was a continuous meowing sound, and then a beam of light shone in time, it was Filch and his Mrs. Lollys!

The nugget had long gray hair, a skinny little body that looked even thinner in the dark, and a pair of bulging eyes like Filch's lightbulbs.

A minute later, Fairf was indeed squeaking, panting, holding an oil lamp and shining it. He shook the oil lamp in his hand around. People who didn't know it thought he was shaking the red wine glass.

But no matter how hard he shined, it was all blank and nothing was found. But looking at Mrs. Lollis who was still meowing non-stop, Filch said:

"Okay, stop barking. There's nothing here. It's probably that annoying guy Peeves who is causing trouble again. The principal should expel him from the castle!"

He bent down and picked up the thin Mrs. Lolis while talking to himself.

Rolf in the invisibility cloak was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe. Although he was lying in Filch's arms, he was still looking straight at Rolf and meowing constantly.

Mrs. Si, he couldn't help but have a headache.

Because he understood the specific meaning of Mrs. Lolis’s meow:

"Kid, I know you are there. Don't underestimate any cat's intuition. Either you come out on your own, or you don't show up in front of me in the future, otherwise I will always find out who you are, your

I remember the smell!”

"Okay, Lolis, stop shouting, otherwise the professors will think something urgent happened in the castle."

Filch had already reached the door of the library at this time, and his other hand was constantly stroking Mrs. Norris.

Rolf was very lucky that Filch couldn't communicate with this keen cat, otherwise instead of comforting the meowing Mrs. Norris, he would be looking for the missing Rolf everywhere.

He waited for Filch to disappear in the library and quickly put the book back to its place. Firstly, it was too late now, and secondly, he was afraid that if he continued to stay here, he would really be raped by Mrs. Lolis.

Seize the current situation.

Fortunately, what made Rolf more gratified was that Lockhart was now in his second year as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and he had a way to borrow this book.

He stood in front of the bookshelf and looked at it. After feeling that his little move would not be noticed by Mrs. Pince, he tightened his tight robe and stood up to leave.

But what Rolf didn't expect was that Filch, who had just left, appeared again and pointed the light of the kerosene lamp in the direction of the bookshelf again.

"Come out, don't wait for me to catch you, come out on your own and I can let you go once, but nothing will happen if you are caught by me."

Rolf was secretly glad that he never took off his invisibility cloak and never made too much noise. If it had been Harry, he would have run away in a panic.

He walked past Filch calmly, and looking at the kerosene lamp that Filch was still sweeping around in his hand, Rolf knew that what he just said was just to fool the child.

Will he pretend not to notice when he goes out? Stop dreaming, his lifelong wish is probably to torture an annoying little wizard.

If given the chance to choose, he would definitely set his sights on the Weasley twins. It is estimated that those two would bring him great psychological satisfaction.

As for why Rolf dared to leave in front of Filch? Because when he had nothing to do, he once carved a silent spell model on his robe.

This spell model is not very easy to use. He also had this spell model engraved on his shoes. Malfoy complained every time that Rolf walked like a ghost and couldn't hear any sound at all.

Rolf successfully climbed back into the Hufflepuff lounge, lay down on his little bed, and fell asleep.

When it came to Defense Against the Dark Arts class again, Rolf felt that he had never looked forward to Lockhart's Defense Against the Dark Arts class so much, or even to every professor's class.

Ever since the elf disaster happened in the Gryffindor classroom, our Professor Lockhart has never brought living creatures into the classroom again.

Now, Lockhart read large sections of his book to the students below, and sometimes acted out some dramatic passages.

It is said that his favorite assistant in Gryffindor class to help him recreate the scene was Harry, and in Hufflepuff House, Rolf reluctantly took on this responsibility.

"Mr. Scamander, would you like to come up and help me embody the simple Transylvanian villager I'm talking about who was cast a bubble-blowing spell and cured by me?"

If Rolf hadn't asked for him, he would have taken out his wand and given him a shot of water, but who told him to look forward to this Defense Against the Dark Arts class so much?

So, under the slightly teasing eyes of his roommates, Rolf stood up and walked to the front of the classroom, helplessly cooperating with the peacock's performance.

Rolf guessed that he must have some obsession with the surname Scamander, otherwise why would he be chosen? Well, it’s all because his grandfather was too famous.

Fortunately, this embarrassing performance did not last long, because the bell rang, and Lockhart got up from the ground and patted the non-existent soil on his body.

He really worked hard. In order to "reproduce" his so-called reality for the young wizards, he showed no pity at all for the expensive-looking wizard robes on his body, saying that he could lie down immediately when he lay on the ground.

"Okay, today's homework is: write a poem about the time I helped Segundo Castillo! The best writer will get several copies of "Magical Me" signed by the author."

Rolf curled his lips when Lockhart turned around. He didn't want "Magic Me", but he did want the autograph.

He stood there, and when his roommates passed by, they asked Rolf why he didn't leave. He quickly motioned with his eyes to let them leave first, but he couldn't let them spoil his good deeds.

After the little wizards in the classroom were almost gone, he walked towards Lockhart's podium, holding a piece of paper tightly in his hand.

"What's the matter? Mr. Scamander?" Lockhart asked curiously when he saw that Rolf had not left.

"Emm, Professor Lockhart?" Rolf pretended to be embarrassed and stammered, "I want... to borrow this book from the library.

I was hoping to gain some background knowledge from it." He held up the note and showed it to Lockhart.

"The problem is, this book is in the restricted area of ​​the library, so I need a teacher to sign the note. I believe this book will help me understand what you said in "Wandering with Ghouls"

A chronic attack of venom."

"Oh? "Walking with Ghouls"?" Lockhart took the note from Rolf's hand and smiled warmly at him.

"This is probably my most satisfying book. Do you like it very much?"

"Like it? Oh, of course, of course I like it!" Rolf was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be very enthusiastic and said, "You caught the last ghoul with a tea strainer. How clever!"

As for why he knew so clearly? Because he once asked Hermione which plot of the book "Walking with Ghouls" was most interesting to her.

Rolf couldn't help but sigh, sometimes Hermione's nymphomania has some unexpected effects~

"Ah, I believe no one would object to me giving a little extra help to the best students in the grade." Lockhart said enthusiastically,

He pulled out a huge peacock brush, "Yeah, it's very beautiful, isn't it?" He misunderstood the surprised expression on Rolf's face, "I usually only use it to sign books."

Rolf looked at the quill pen and really couldn't figure out where he got such a big feather that was flashy and made writing more difficult.

He signed a big, curly name on the note and returned the note to Rolf on the side.

ps: The two chapters are combined into one. I have been too busy recently. I answer questions like crazy every day and my brain is going to explode. It will be better after this period of time. When I calm down, I will definitely make it up to you!

It can be seen from the word count that there is not much difference between the length of two chapters, but I don’t have time to describe it in more details~ So in fact, there is no change~

Feinan would like to thank you all for loving me through thick and thin! Shamelessly asking for votes!!!
