Hogwarts: I'm just here to enjoy the magic

Jack and the others stood there for a while.

As time passed, Hermione finally gained the upper hand and started the topic with interest.

"If what I just did was all black magic... what kind of spell have I been under?"

Hermione is a qualified Gryffindor after all.

I saw that she was shaking and crying before.

I thought I would just choose to retreat.

Unexpectedly, I now want to study it.

Jack smiled helplessly.

Since Hermione wants to study this, just stay with her.

"After the three of us came in, there were two things to pay attention to." Jack summarized, "First, only you were under the spell. Second, only you took the initiative to touch the object."

After listening to the summary, the smart girl immediately grasped the key points.

"You mean... when we were standing at the door?" Hermione thought.

She seemed to break away from the group and touched the stone wall.

Think about it this way.

like……

The cold temperature of the stone wall was similar to the temperature of Jack's hand that he had touched before.

It's all cold.

Oh no.

Those were not Jack's hands.

That should be the stone man's hand.

This is the right description.

"Maybe it's not just that." Jack did not come to a conclusion immediately. "From our perspective... we only realized that you were missing after walking in the passage for a while."

"We may all be under a curse." Neville immediately expressed his thoughts, "If Hermione is the only one who is under the curse, then she should be the only one who behaves strangely. Then, when she shows something is wrong, we can I found it right away.”

"Yes, what Neville said makes sense." Jack nodded slightly, "Depending on the situation, this is a compound spell or alchemy product that is effective for multiple people."

"Is it a confusing spell?" Hermione, who is a top student and a good reader, speculated.

This is a enchantment used to trick, confuse an opponent, or interfere with an object.

The release is very rapid, usually colorless and silent, and the person who is cursed often has no time to prevent it. Once it is hit, it will tremble for a while, and then it will be like a puppet, obeying the orders of the spell caster.

This spell is very difficult and cannot be used by ordinary wizards.It's not a magic spell that must be learned in school.

Hermione had only seen relevant descriptions in popular books like extracurricular books.

"It doesn't seem like it." Jack shook his head. "When we lost you, we didn't feel any trace of being under a spell. This is probably a more profound spell than a confusing spell, allowing people to be hit silently. A curse."

"A very profound curse, or a curse that is not as powerful as imagined, but it is used so cleverly that we are not aware of it." This is Jack's summary, "No matter which one it is, according to our current knowledge The amount is not enough to complete the analysis.”

Hermione paled a little after hearing this.

No one who has experienced it personally.

It's impossible to understand how she feels.

It is clear that everything is normal in the senses.

As I walked, I discovered that my companions were no longer human.

That feeling really makes one's scalp numb and makes one scream.

She's pretty lucky, right?

In other words, the Longbottom family just wanted to test the wizard's strength and didn't do anything too exaggerated.

otherwise……

When he woke up, he found that the hand he was holding was not a hand made of stone, but a rotting corpse or something.

I'm afraid I have to stop the trial immediately and go see a psychiatrist first.

"Then... move on now?" Neville asked.

Jack listened and wanted to answer directly and continue.

Because this experience is really rare.

I used to think that as long as I mastered the Transfiguration Charm + Levitation Charm and practiced it to a high level, I could learn to imitate Voldemort and eat him everywhere with one move.

But the experience of the trial passage broke his beautiful fantasy.

Real black magic is weird and difficult to prevent.

Like Voldemort, he launches Avada Kedavra right from the start, which is really powerful.

But after all, it is similar to a berserker.

When they meet, they go on a killing spree.

Of course, if the other party dies, it will be over once and for all. If the other party does not die, you will die yourself.

Think about it seriously, how on earth was Voldemort crippled by Harry's mother?

Is it really love, as Dumbledore claims?

Interpret it from another angle.

Voldemort's defeat.

Could it be that he was defeated by the secrecy and weirdness of magic?

Magic is truly profound.

Only then did Jack get a glimpse into the truly magical and mysterious side of magic.

There was no doubt that Jack wanted to experience it again.

But he had to see what Hermione meant first.

"Do you still want to continue watching?"

"That's for sure." Of course Hermione would not choose to retreat.

joke.

Even if it's a little lioness, she's still a lion.

Is it super brave?

You have to walk further in to see what else you encounter.

"Then let's continue." Jack agreed, "As for research... let's wait until we have learned something."

"Okay." Neville nodded.

Holding the wand tightly in his hand, he walked in front and walked deeper into the passage.

Jack followed suit.

After the group of people moved a little distance, Neville suddenly said: "Judging from the direction, this is the road Jack and I came on before, but now..."

Jack glanced at the ground.

There were no footprints on the flat stone floor.

"There is something wrong with the direction here. It may be similar to the settings in Hogwarts." Jack analyzed briefly, "So subjectively, we are going straight forward, but in fact, we may be walking in circles in the passage. not sure."

As a wizarding school that has existed for more than hundreds of years, Hogwarts itself has undergone a large number of magical transformations.

Some of its passages, corridors, and even doors will change their connection points from time to time.

According to normal people's understanding.

If you stand on the first floor, face the stairs leading to the second floor, and walk straight up, you will definitely reach the second floor.

But that's not the case at Hogwarts.

It is obviously a staircase leading to the second floor, but if you go up, it may go directly to the fourth floor.

At this time, standing on the 4th floor, I want to go down and return to the starting point, that is, I want to go back to the 1st floor.

But it is very likely that it is on the third floor.

Just make people confused.

However, such changes are not fixed.

It’s not just about memorizing the changes.

It will show different combinations of changes in different time periods.

Full of unknown and randomness.

Some freshmen who have just entered school are often late for class due to such stairs because they cannot grasp the corresponding rules.

Even the famous Harry was once late for class and was deducted points from his teacher.

A little farther away.

All in all, Jack felt that the stone passage here should be similar to the stairs in Hogwarts.

As such.

Why did they lose Hermione while walking before.

There you have the answer.
