The Deep Sea Wizard of Hogwarts - Chapter 148
c148 Azkaban
Hearing Lind’s answer, Dumbledore was a little surprised, but then he felt it was natural.
is a good boy.
“Okay, then” Dumbledore was mid-sentence when he saw a silver cat suddenly rush in and rub against Dumbledore.
Dumbledore’s expression suddenly became serious,
“Sorry Linde, it seems something happened again. You wait for me here. You can take a look at the candies on the table and the books over there.”
After saying that, Dumbledore hurried out of the office. A confused Linde was left behind.
That was Professor McGonagall’s patron saint just now!
In other words, there are some troublesome things happening in the school! Something happened in the secret room again?
Well, he didn’t really care. As long as it has nothing to do with him, he doesn’t care.
Lind walked slowly to the cabinet Dumbledore mentioned, and kept scanning the spines of the books inside.
“Comparison Table of Free Translation of Ancient Magic Texts”
“The Origin of Runes”
“The Magical World: Ancient African Witchcraft Outside Egypt – Vodou”
…
“These are all unique copies!” Linde carefully stroked the spines of the books. He was afraid that he might accidentally injure these books that had fallen off pages, turned yellow, and had a musty smell.
“The Decline of Indian Witchcraft”
“The Origin and Development of Contemporary Charms”
“This is an interesting book. I currently lack knowledge in this area.” Linde immediately selected the book “The Origin and Development of Contemporary Charms”. Moreover, this book was quite new, so he was not worried about damaging it.
The spells they now learn in school are all “modern spells” that have been optimized and updated over several generations. They are short spells and a simple wave of a wand.
The previous spells were long and complicated, and consumed a lot of magic power, which was far from comparable to contemporary spells.
But that’s in terms of use.
If you want to learn and really understand the magic spells, you have to trace the source of them one by one. As far as Linde knows, there is no one in the magic spells club who doesn’t understand the ancient magic texts at all.
Thinking about it, Linde opened the book and took a look.
How could a modern book be found only in Dumbledore’s office but not in the library!
If this is the case, there is generally only one possibility, and that is that the book was not released.
Sure enough, when I opened it, I found that the content inside was not only handwritten, but also unsigned.
Solitary copy.
Although it is an only copy, Linde feels that there are no rubbish books that can stay here. Linde didn’t waste any more time, turned directly to the first chapter, and quickly immersed himself in it.
The content of the book was really good, so he simply squatted down next to the bookcase.
After reading two pages, Linde was hooked, and then his reading speed suddenly accelerated. He turned the pages every few seconds. He had to use Occlumency to “photograph” each page, and then re-write it afterwards. Copy it and savor it slowly.
“Who is this master? This is too strong! These arguments are so crazy, but I can’t refute it.” Linde was amazed while taking pictures.
I thought about telling Professor Flitwick the arguments in this book next time and see what he said.
The book is not thick, and it only took about ten minutes for Linde to record the entire book.
The moment he closed the book, he suddenly heard a familiar rustling sound in his ears.
“Oh, yes, yes… your position is particularly difficult to pinpoint, but I still stick to my original statement – you will be very suitable in Slytherin.”
As soon as Lind stood up, he saw that Harry’s entire head was covered by the old Sorting Hat, as if someone had covered it with blood, and it looked like his head would be separated in the next second.
“Harry? What are you doing here!” Lind asked while putting down the book.
“Uh, ah!” Harry was frightened and trembled. He raised his hat and looked at the source of the sound, “Lind? Why are you here?”
“I’ve been here all the time. But you didn’t see what I was squatting on just now. It’s normal. What are you doing?” Lind continued to look at these books, his mind filled with the same thoughts as the thief.
“Uh, okay. I really didn’t see it. It scared me.” Harry raised the sorting hat and said, “I want to ask where I would be if I were sorted again.”
“Oh?!” After hearing his words, Lind also became interested, “What does it say?”
Harry was a little disappointed, “He said I was suitable for being in Slytherin.” He put the hat back on, “But I think it’s wrong.”
As he said that, he looked at Lind again, “It’s possible to make mistakes, right, just like those machines.”
Linde smiled and said, “Maybe, after all, nothing in this world is absolute.” As he said that, he also walked over and picked up the sorting hat.
The mouth on the hat said disdainfully, “I never make mistakes, it’s just you who haven’t seen yourself clearly.
You should trust my professionalism. ”
Linde patted his hat, “What’s the fuss about? Could it be that he can change colleges?” As he said, Linde put it on his head, “Tell me the real answer this time.
The first time I put it on, you said, ‘Don’t worry, I won’t take your advice at all’, but I still remember it clearly!
By the way, Occlumency won’t affect your work, right? ”
“It doesn’t matter. I won’t enter your brain, and I don’t have that ability. I will just analyze what kind of person you are through basic observation of your soul.
And that’s only roughly. After all, people are multi-faceted.
So the brain is closed… Oh my god, why do you smell so salty now,” the Sorting Hat said with some disgust.
“Are you sure? Did you have it last year?” Linde confirmed. Smell, he definitely doesn’t have a smell, but if he does have a charming masculine scent.
Then the Sorting Hat can only talk about the “taste” at the soul level. Plus it says salty. Does it mean that Cthulhu’s influence on him has deepened?
“Last year?” The Sorting Hat thought for a moment, “No, or just a little bit, so little that I didn’t notice.”
“Um…Okay” Linde sighed, “Let’s sort them into different hospitals first!”
“Azkaban!”
“??”
“Not satisfied? Then you’ll be in Slytherin first, and then sooner or later you’ll go to Azkaban for further training. Are you satisfied?”
“…Satisfied!”
Lind took off his hat. Then he threw it back on the cabinet and said, “Hey, be friendly to the elderly. Considering your age, I’m your great-great-great-grandfather.”
“It’s a pity that you are just a dirty and smelly old hat. You can feel that those little wizards disliked wearing you when they were sorted!” Lind said unceremoniously.
“You…” the Sorting Hat was a little angry, but couldn’t think of anything to say to refute it, “you…ask yourself, am I wrong in my evaluation of you?”
“…”
Well, Lind asked himself, not only was he Slytherin in character, but he should also be grateful to the Sorting Hat for not sorting him into Slytherin.
If he were divided into Slytherin, he would definitely have greater conflicts and more troubles with those self-righteous idiots.
“No!” Linde shook his head, then straightened it up and patted it again, “But let me tell you the truth!”
“Say.” the Sorting Hat said angrily.
“You really should take a shower.”
“You…you will go to Azkaban in the future!” the Sorting Hat shouted angrily, and then his mouth stopped for a moment, giving the impression that it had turned back into an ordinary hat.
“What’s wrong with it?” Harry asked worriedly.
“It’s broken!” Linde waved his hand, and then began to play with the naughty little silverware on the table.
“Oh, okay.” Although he didn’t quite understand what breaking the defense meant, it didn’t mean he couldn’t understand the atmosphere. “Where is Azkaban it’s talking about?”
“Azkaban? That’s the Hogwarts branch. Every year, many students who graduate from Hogwarts go there to learn advanced skills.” Lind said with a smile.
There is nothing wrong with saying that, Hogwarts is the only wizarding school in the UK, and Azkaban is the British wizarding prison.
So I said there’s nothing wrong with most of the people who go to Azkaban having attended Hogwarts!
