The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

After Hermione ran away crying, the atmosphere in the kitchen suddenly became a little awkward.

Scott's three roommates and Luna all stopped eating and turned to look at him.

Harry and Ron also stood up from their seats awkwardly.

"Oh, don't worry about it." Ron said unnaturally, "Hermione always has some weird ideas."

"Yes... yes." Harry was also a little unnatural.

Scott was still very calm.

He shook his head, "Speaking of which, her ideas are not strange. Kindness and compassion are good things."

Ron and Harry looked at him with obscure and strange eyes.

Scott smiled, "Although we have different ideas, we just discuss them with each other. I don't accept her ideas, and I don't intend to force her to accept mine."

"That... that's good." Harry also smiled reluctantly, "I will tell Hermione, and she is just a little angry for the time being."

"Come on, she always wants to put her own ideas into everyone's heads." Ron muttered in a low voice.

Although his voice was very low, everyone present could hear it.

Hearing him say this, Harry could no longer maintain the smile on his face.

He nudged Ron with his elbow, "Let's go back and continue celebrating, everyone is waiting for us, oh and food!"

He turned and ran to the stove, said something to the group of house elves hiding there, and then ran back to say goodbye, pulling Ron to leave.

"Congratulations again on winning the championship." Scott paused and waved, "By the way."

Harry and Ron stopped again.

Scott looked into Harry's eyes, "Harry, have you learned it, I mean, the magic that Sirius is responsible for teaching you?"

Looking at Harry's current appearance, he guessed that the boy should no longer be troubled by the nightmares brought to him by Voldemort.

"Oh, I have to say that it's really difficult." Harry nodded and laughed, "But there has been some progress."

Scott said: "Congratulations, you will feel better after learning it."

"Thank you!"

After the two left the kitchen, Scott continued to eat.

"Oh, Scott, are all the things you said in the debate with Little Meg true?" Eddie asked him.

"What do you think?"

"I don't know. Of course, maybe you're just trying to confuse her."

Scott shrugged his shoulders and said nothing more.

He said so much, but in fact he was just responding to Hermione's accusations.

As for whether what he said made sense, he didn't think much about it.

Milton on the side said: "Speaking of which, house elves are indeed a bit pitiful, but I never think there is anything wrong."

Roger said: "I think as long as they are not deliberately abused, the rest should follow their own wishes."

"You're right." Milton thought about it and nodded in agreement.

At this time, Luna, who was sitting next to Scott, put down the knife and fork in her hand.

"Are you full?" Scott asked.

Luna nodded.

"I'm full."

Her eyes were erratic, and she seemed to be in a trance again.

After a long while, she was heard to speak again, "I don't have any house-elves at home."

This was said without any beginning or end, and Scott said "hmm" as a response.

"They are very happy in Hogwarts." Luna said again.

Her eyes moved to the group of house-elves who were busy again.

"It will be difficult to change their ideas." She said lightly again.

Scott said "hmm" again.

"What if, their ideas really change?" Luna suddenly turned to Scott and asked, "What if they ask for wages and holidays themselves?"

"Then give them." Scott said indifferently, "Don't those goblins also control Gringotts and do well in the wizarding world."

"Oh." Luna nodded.

Scott asked her curiously, "What do you think? If Hermione invites you to work together to improve the rights of house-elves, will you agree?"

Luna tilted her head to think about it, nodded, and shook her head.

Eddie, who had been listening to the two people talking, couldn't help but ask Luna curiously, "What does nodding and shaking your head mean?"

Luna glanced at him and didn't answer.

Her eyes began to empty again.

"Let me guess." Scott said, "Nodding means you can agree to her, and shaking your head means you feel you can't do anything about it."

Luna's eyes refocused and nodded.

"What do you mean?" Eddie asked again.

"The most difficult part of this matter is not to fight for the rights and interests of this ethnic group, but to awaken their own thoughts." Scott said, "If you can't change their deep-rooted ideas, no matter how much you do, it will be useless."

Luna nodded again.

Scott said again: "This can be done, and it may even make the magic world more prosperous. But it may also lead to worse results, such as they may become enemies of wizards after awakening."

Milton spoke again, "I only know that goblins generally have malice towards wizards."

"Everyone has to find something to do, something that they think is meaningful. No one can determine the outcome before it is completed." Luna also spoke, "If this is what Hermione wants to do, I can also provide some help when she needs help."

"Is she your friend?" Eddie asked.

"Not a friend now." Luna said, "but maybe we can become friends."

"I hope you can make more friends." Scott said.

"I will." Luna nodded seriously.

After eating this late lunch, Scott said goodbye to several companions and went to the Room of Requirement alone for class.

Recently, Scott has been strengthening his combat effectiveness and further improving the use of Transfiguration in combat under the guidance of Ravenclaw tutors.

This weekend, he has achieved some new results.

In the empty room where the Ravenclaw portrait is located, Scott stood beside the lonely desk in the middle of the room.

He looked at the iron block placed on the desk, chanted the Transfiguration spell, and waved the wand in his hand firmly.

The black iron block moved.

The originally hard metal block softened into a liquid state and quickly took shape into a rough crow shape.

Then, as various details were deformed, the image of the crow began to become more and more vivid and lifelike.

While deforming, a complex magic loop began to take shape, and the fiery red magic flowed on the surface of the crow.

Huh!

As the magic loop became more and more dazzling, the flames finally burned on the surface of the crow's body.

"Ga!"

The crow wrapped in the red flame opened its mouth and called, and its black feathers trembled in the flames, but it was not damaged at all.

"Ga!"

It called again, and spread its wings and flew up.

The black crow was wrapped in red flames and flew in the air, like a ball of fire.

When it approached, Scott could still feel the scorching temperature of the flames.

"Success."

Scott laughed.

He took out a wooden block from his pocket and threw it out.

"Attack it!"

Hearing Scott's order, the flames wrapped around the crow's body gradually subsided and extinguished.

"Crack!"

The crow, which seemed to have recovered its normal state, opened its mouth and spit out a burning line of fire, which accurately hit the block of wood thrown by Scott.

The block of wood immediately burned and turned into ashes in a very short time.

"Crack!"

The crow cried happily, flew two more circles and landed on the desk again, leaving several charred footprints on the wooden board of the desk.

Not long after, about 1 minute, the surface of the crow's body burned again.

"No mistake!"

Scott said happily, waving his wand again to turn the crow into a bare block of iron.

At this time, the iron block was already burning red, and the wooden board of the desk sizzled and almost caught fire.

Scott waved his wand and moved the iron block to the stone slab on the ground in the corner of the room.

"It seems that you really succeeded."

In the portrait, Ravenclaw, who had been watching Scott's operation, smiled slightly.

"I also want to thank you for your help, mentor." Scott turned around and bowed to the portrait, "You helped me analyze the magic circuit of the [Arson Ring] and guided me to make appropriate modifications to the magic circuit."

[Arson Ring] is an alchemy secret recipe that Scott cracked from the gift Michael gave him on Christmas Day in 1994 with the help of his Ravenclaw mentor.

The gift was a tattered piece of parchment. The content on the paper looked like a menu, which seemed to come from a somewhat poor cooking enthusiast, but it was actually left by an alchemist and written in a special encrypted way.

After the magic circuit of the [Arson Ring] was cracked, Scott always wanted to incorporate it into his own transformation.

Through continuous efforts, this idea was finally realized today.

From now on, his transformation product no longer only has a solid defense effect, auxiliary effects such as monitoring and video recording, but also has an attack effect similar to the fire spell.

With the "Arson Crow" that has its own flame and high temperature and can spit out hot fire from a long distance, his choices in battle will increase and his tactics will be greatly flexible and enriched.

While Scott was happy, he certainly couldn't forget the great help that Ravenclaw, his mentor, had given him.

"This is also the result of your own efforts." Ravenclaw said lightly, "Keep working hard, my apprentice."

Scott stood up and smiled, "Follow your teachings, my mentor."

A new week has arrived, and the students of Hogwarts bid farewell to the hustle and bustle of the Quidditch finals and enter their ordinary study life.

But this week is not ordinary.

First of all, this is the last week before the end-of-year exams.

Many students who are afraid of the exams or are unsure have begun to review frantically, or try their best to find some strange potions and cheating props to try to find loopholes.

Eddie has washed his hands and hasn't sold fake medicine for a long time, but there are still people who take the initiative to ask him to buy a few bottles of Bafe Brain Refresher.

You know, the Bafe Brain Refresher that Eddie used to sell secretly was actually a foxy dung.

"It's like this every year, there are always some little fools trying to find a way to cheat." Eddie sighed in the dormitory, "But they don't know that even the real Bafe Brain Refresher can't make their grades better."

Roger laughed, "Professors can tell whether a student is cheating or not. That's too easy. Cheating is impossible in Hogwarts."

"But every year during exam week, professors always catch a few cheaters." Eddie said with a smile.

"Oh, Scott, Roger, how are you reviewing?" Milton asked, "I'm worried about my O.W.Ls."

In the dormitory, three fifth-year students were also facing O.W.Ls, and only Milton was very anxious.

"It's almost done." Roger thought for a while and said, "I don't have too high expectations for my grades. I will be satisfied as long as I can get 5 or 6 certificates."

Scott told the truth: "I'm not worried about my grades either. Although there won't be 12 certificates, I should be able to get all the subjects I take the exam for."

Milton quickly picked up the book, "I need to study harder."

Scott and Roger looked at each other and shook their heads.

Although Milton's grades are not top-notch, they are not bad either. It's just that he gets particularly anxious and unconfident when he encounters an exam, which is the result of his personality.

Experience tells them that any persuasion and comfort at this time is useless, but will make him more nervous.

The best way is not to disturb him and let him immerse himself in his efforts.

In this way, he will not have time to think too much.

In addition to the exam, there is another unusual thing this week.

Miss Grubbly-Plank, the assistant teacher of the Care of Magical Creatures class, who is very popular among students, suddenly resigned quietly.

Scott didn't notice this at first until he heard other students who had taken this course talking about it.

It seems that Dumbledore has launched an investigation into the previous attack in the Forbidden Forest?

Scott just thought about it and didn't have the energy to learn more about it for the time being.

He has to get through the exam week first.

Although he is confident in his learning results, he can't be too careless. He still spent some more time to sort out the knowledge he learned in the past five years.

Also, he found that he might have caused another trouble.

The name of this trouble is Hermione.

The girl who ran away crying and returned home in defeat was obviously very unconvinced and wanted to get back at him.

Facing her request to "debate" again, Scott refused because he had to deal with the exam first.

Because Hermione herself took the exam very seriously, she didn't say anything else.

But she obviously couldn't hold back the urge to "debate".

Every time she saw Scott, her expression was eager to try, and she wanted to rush up and refute Scott's point of view with her newly prepared arguments.

At this time, Harry and Ron, who were following Hermione, always looked at him with sympathy.

Roger and others who knew the inside story would also gloat over his misfortune.

"Her desire to win is too strong."

Luna found it interesting.

She said with a smile: "If she doesn't win the debate, she won't give up."

Scott nodded.

He muttered in distress, "We have communicated with each other and confirmed that we can't reach a consensus. Isn't it better to respect each other's views?"
