Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard - Chapter 290

c290 288 Dumbledore’s Army II

“I think we can start practicing. I think the purpose of everyone participating in this activity is to learn some knowledge and adapt to magic combat, right?”

Feeney was the first to speak,

“If you want to engage in magic combat, the first magic you need to learn must be the disarming spell. This is a very useful magic…”

Feeney began to introduce the functions, effects, and usage of the disarming spell.

“Please,”

A young wizard from Gryffindor shouted,

“I guess Expelliarmus didn’t work on You-Know-Who?”

Feeney smiled and said,

“Although I haven’t used it on him, this spell is indeed very useful. It even works on Professor Dumbledore sometimes. As for Voldemort, I don’t think you need to worry too much,”

Harry looked at Finny very confused when he heard this and asked,

“Don’t worry? Finny, what happened?”

Feeney nodded and said concisely,

“Something happened. I can’t tell you the details. In short, Voldemort has not experienced or had time to cause trouble in the wizarding world for a long time.”

Astoria glanced at Finny thoughtfully, and then began to practice the disarming spell with Luna.

Seeing this scene, other little wizards also found their partners to practice magic spells.

Shouts of Expelliarmus suddenly rang out in the room, wands flew around, and the missed spells hit the books on the bookshelf, causing them to fly into the air.

Seeing this, Feeney kept waving the wand in his hand, and the books that were about to fall returned to their original positions.

He looked around at the little wizards practicing these magic spells. Sure enough, he was right to start with the basic skills. These little wizards used various spells in a mess. Many of them couldn’t use Expelliarmus at all. What he saw in this scene was that Feeney had a headache.

“Do you have a headache?”

Penello walked to Fini and said with a smile,

Feeney spread his hands,

“I didn’t expect that their basic skills would be so bad,”

Penello nodded and said with some sympathy,

“Naturally, there is a reason why the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts changes every year and the things they learn are no longer within the system. However, it is more because they are only in their second year now, and they live in a different environment. There aren’t many shadows of the mysterious man left.”

Having said this, Penello sighed,

Feeney looked over with some confusion, thought about it carefully, and suddenly understood in his heart,

Penello is now in sixth grade, which means that she was only five years old when Voldemort disappeared twelve years ago, and she already has memories. In other words, when she entered the magical world, she was under Voldemort’s shadow, but… It’s just not as serious as it was in earlier years.

The wizarding world has been looking down on Voldemort more and more year by year in recent years. This has also resulted in the younger wizards becoming less stressed, and their level is naturally not that of other young wizards.

Feeney asked helplessly,

“They are only in second grade now, and they are learning the basics of Defense Against the Dark Arts. If we follow the normal curriculum, they should be learning dark creatures this year, right?”

Penello thought for a moment and nodded and said,

“If I remember correctly, I remember I was in second grade learning how to deal with werewolves, vampires and whatnot.”

Feeney nodded and said,

“Okay, I think we need to tutor them carefully.”

After saying that, he put the wand against his throat and said,

“Okay, stop!”

Under the sound of the magic spreading, many young wizards stopped what they were doing and lowered their wands.

“Everyone is practicing well, but there are still many areas for improvement, but this is normal.”

Feeney paused and continued,

“Most of you have never learned this spell. Although it is a bit difficult to practice it directly, I have to tell you that this spell is originally a spell that you should learn in the second grade. If Hogwart If the current Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is still Sirius, you should have learned how to use this spell by now.”

“Of course, there are many people paddling. Don’t think I can’t see it, George, Fred!”

When the twins heard this, they smiled coquettishly and stopped making mischievous faces. They raised their hands towards Feeney to show that they would no longer cause trouble.

Feeney then continued,

“Come in and I will work with Penello to teach those of you who are less familiar with this spell. Please continue to contact us. Remember, your tone must be decisive and resolute. Don’t hesitate. The spell is your weapon. Instead of getting rid of your firearms, be sure not to pronounce it wrongly. A wizard was killed because he made the enemy’s sleeves catch on fire because he made the wrong spell.”

Next, Feeney and Penello shuttled among the little wizards, constantly teaching them how to use this spell.

Time also gradually passed during this process, until the magic clock that Feeney specially placed on the bookshelf nearby rang.

Only then did Feeney stop what he was doing and said,

“Okay, everyone can stop now,”

After hearing this, many people lowered the wands in their hands. However, the spell that had been released obviously would not be interrupted because of this. Finally, there were several crackling sounds of the wand falling to the ground.

Feeney continued,

“Very good, everyone is fine. However, the time is up now. You need to return to the common room, otherwise Filch will come out to catch you. Well, that’s it for this year. As for the next time, it will be next time. Same time on Monday. Also, remember to pay attention to the magic coin. If there are any new changes, I will let Hermione inform you.”

“I know some of you want to practice Quidditch, but I think your practice time should be on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. In short, it will be tentatively scheduled for next Monday. The specific time will be notified separately depending on the situation. ”

After saying that, Feeney directed three or four of the little wizards to form a small group and leave the Room of Requirement in batches.

Harry looked nervously at the little black dots representing the little wizards on the Marauder’s Map. The Hufflepuffs returned to the common room next to the kitchen, and the Ravenclaws returned to the southwest tower of the castle. Llanffindor walked back along the eighth-floor corridor behind the portrait of the Fat Lady,

The Marauder’s Map was given to Harry by the twins at the beginning of this school year. They no longer have any use for it. One reason is that they rarely go out at night now and spend most of their time in Finny’s bedroom in the Room of Requirement. Inside, for a small part of the time, they also fully understood the secret passages in Hogwarts Castle, and could avoid Filch’s pursuit without a map at all.

“It’s so cool to be real, Feeny,”

In the end, only Harry, Ron, Neville, the trio, the twins Jordan, Draco, Hermione, Ginny, Luna, Astoria and Penelo were left in the Room of Requirement.

After seeing everyone go back safely, Hermione said to Finny in surprise,

Feeney nodded, smiled and said to several people,

“Okay, now that they have left, let’s talk about business.”

Penello looked embarrassed. She didn’t know whether she should stay here and listen to the next words.

Feeney obviously realized this, and took out one of his men’s notes from the book behind him, and handed it to Penello,

“These are some practical skills I have summarized. You can go back and take a look at them first, and then come to me for practical exercises during the gathering in the next few nights.”

Feeney’s words actually meant a little bit of a farewell. He didn’t completely trust Penello, at least not on some important matters, so he needed Penello to go back before getting down to business.

As for the notes, Penello had been promised to her a long time ago, and now it was planned to hand them over to her.

Penello nodded and said with a smile,

“Then I’ll go back first,”

After saying that, he turned around and left the Room of Requirement.

After watching Penello disappear, Feeney finally spoke out what he called the serious matter.

“Okay, now let’s get down to business. What I told you before practice is that Voldemort won’t cause trouble for the time being.”

Astoria asked thoughtfully,

“Did you cause him any trouble?”

As far as she knew, Voldemort secretly planned Lisa’s attack. According to Feeney’s character, he must have gone to trouble Voldemort.

After hearing Astoria’s words, several others looked at Feeney with surprise, wanting to get a positive answer.

Feeney nodded,

“Absolutely. When we attacked the Parkinson family’s manor, we happened to find that Voldemort was also there. So, I fought with him,”

After hearing this, several people were very surprised. Astoria even ran to Fini’s side and looked at Fini’s body carefully.

“So how are you? Are you injured?”

Feeney smiled and waved his hands to calm the panicked little girl, and said to a few people,

“I can tell you very clearly that Voldemort is very powerful. As a wizard who has entered the legendary realm, although he has not experienced any further in more than ten years and can only be regarded as just entering the legendary realm, I have to admit that he is in the legendary realm. If you have enough time, you will definitely go much smoother than others.”

“So, if you encounter him in the future, try to avoid him as much as possible before entering the realm of the great wizard. Of course, in the past few years, you don’t need to worry,”

Hermione looked at Finny very doubtfully.

“Did you defeat him?”

Feeney frowned and said hesitantly,

“I’m not sure whether I defeated him. He and his pet python Nagini were both killed by me. However, we need to know that Voldemort used some particularly evil magic to make him This magic will not be completely killed until it is completely destroyed. In other words, I just restored him to the form he had last year and did not kill him. However, defeating him should be considered. ”

“Voldemort has been killed!”

Harry obviously didn’t hear what Feeney said clearly and shouted in surprise,

“Then we don’t have to worry about him coming back again.”

Hermione sighed and looked at Harry and explained,

“Harry! Feeney has made it very clear that the mysterious man is not dead, but is temporarily gone. He will still come back. Just like last year, there is still a possibility of resurrection.”

Seeing this, Feeney sighed in his heart that even if Hermione went to Ravenclaw College and the trio around Harry became Harry, Ron, and Neville, Hermione still wouldn’t be able to change. It’s become a scene where a few naughty children are mothering each other.

While the others were also excited about the news that Feeney had just told, Astoria was the only one standing next to Feeney with great worry, looking at him without saying a word, just looking at him.

Feeney smiled bitterly when he saw this. He really didn’t expect that the eleven-year-old girl here in England would be so precocious.

“Don’t worry, Leah, I’m fine. I was surrounded by my wizards at the time, and I was protected by Puff and Damon. Voldemort couldn’t hurt me, so don’t worry.”

Although Astoria breathed a sigh of relief, she still looked at Finny angrily. Her cheeks were puffed up with anger, making Astoria look like an angry little pufferfish. , very cute.

Feeney couldn’t help but stretched out his hand and touched the top of Astoria’s head.

“Would you like to come to my house for Christmas vacation? I think your father won’t mind this.”

Astoria blushed shyly because of Finny’s actions, nodded slightly, and ran to Luna and Ginny without thinking about what Finny had worried her about before, holding the ladies’ hands and saying goodbye. Whisper.

Finny then breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the twins and said,

“We will take the O.W.L exam next year, how are you preparing?”

The twins looked at each other, looking a little embarrassed.

Feeney smiled bitterly,

“George, Fred, I think even if your goal is not to enter the Ministry of Magic, you still need to pass this exam, otherwise your mother will not let you go. Moreover, you can take electives after the O.W.L exam. , If you really want to develop in prank props, you must learn ancient magic texts, potions, herbal medicine, and alchemy.”

George and Fred looked at each other and then nodded to Feeney and said,

“We have considered this, and we plan to study two subjects each,”

The two spoke in unison and told Feeney that they had indeed considered it. As for Jordan, no one else needed to worry. He was planning to enter the International Quidditch League as a Quidditch host after graduation. Now he is at Hogwart. Ci is also doing this work,

As for Harry, they are still a long way from thinking about life, and they don’t need to think about it now.

Seeing the twins and Jordan getting together and not knowing what to say, Feeney looked at Harry,

“Harry, let’s go see Sirius together on Christmas Day. He will probably wake up by then.”
