From Azkaban To Hogwarts - Vol 7 Chapter 587

In the forbidden forest, most of the early summer sunlight was blocked by trees, and it only felt a little warm when it fell on his face, but William didn’t even appreciate it at all, leaning on a dead tree and thinking hard.

‘replace…’

The twins’ prank on their younger brother was obviously just an ordinary book. After changing it several times, it was fabricated into an illusion that it would not be damaged.

‘But in magic, where should this replacement work? ’

When he was in Azkaban, he knew that there was a wizard who was sent in for fraud. In fact, every time the other party showed the real thing, but after the customer checked it, he would steal the goods when they were handed over to the customer. Replacing something with a low-quality imitation, tried and tested – of course, ended up swindling a furloughed Auror…

He had told William—almost all wizards let their guard down after careful inspection, if they were greedy enough.

Because the goods he sells are much lower than the market price, and he also pretends to not understand the market, which will make the buyer choose to quickly complete the transaction after confirming that it is the real thing.

‘But, these two substitutions are completely different…why did I think of this? ’

‘It can’t be a quick Apparition run away when in danger…’

“It’s not impossible… If you use multiple fakes to confuse you, it will definitely run well…”

‘No, it’s not this, it’s definitely not what attracted me back then! ’

William shook his head vigorously. The replacement he thought of was definitely not that kind of replacement, but a very deceptive…

“Yes, yes, it’s a steady stream of replacements, it’s a transformation!”

He pulled out his wand, and towards the open space in front was a stream of clear water like a spring. A large amount of clear water was summoned by him, and then fixed in mid-air, turning into a transparent, whitish sphere.

“Try Transfiguration again…”

He raised his left hand and began to deform the controlled water ball—the water ball was infinitely compressed, and then quickly condensed and formed on the ball with wisps of ice needles, until a water ball high enough for a person was frozen into a Quaffle. The size is like a hockey puck with infinite cracks.

“Yes, add… add…”

A bit of excitement appeared on William’s face. He used his left hand to maintain the hockey puck in the air, and then his right hand began to cast the black magic that he was best at. As the purple magic spell hit the puck, the puck began to look beautiful. Blue, shining brightly in the air.

He was struggling a bit, but the intense study of Transfiguration during this period allowed him to maintain the shape of the puck.

“The last step.”

William held the puck firmly with the wand in his right hand, and began to perform a final transfiguration with his left hand.

“go!”

He waved his left hand, and the ice puck began to spin at a high speed, and then galloped forward at a high speed under the influence of the magic spell.

‘It’s still a bit slower than normal spells fly…’

Just as William was judging this new spell from behind, the high-speed flying ice ball began to quickly throw light blue ice edges under the influence of polymorphism.

The fine ice refracted the light in the sunlight, and then fell on the surrounding trees and grass—they did not directly insert into the trees, but stuck to it like water droplets, and then quickly froze.

The world that was already full of green in the midsummer was suddenly dyed a cold and silent white, but the ice hockey of the initiator did not even have the awareness of slowing down, and still kept throwing out the deadly light blue ice ridges. Under the high-speed rotation, this deadly white is scattered all over the land on the running track with a cruel whistle.

When it whistled and hit a frozen tree, the frozen tree exploded into pieces like ice cubes, and the puck itself was mercilessly moving towards the back. It smashed at a high speed, until the eighth huge tree was destroyed, and it completely lost its strength to move forward, and then it shattered into a shiny ice slag.

‘This power…’

William grinned as he looked at the half-street-destroyed area—the power was in no way greater than he had imagined.

He walked quickly to the ice hockey path. Those plants had been frozen and cracked into pieces, like things that had been weathered for countless years, and they all shattered when he stepped on them lightly – even if he only needed to walk. The wind brought out is enough.

“This effect can only be achieved when the spell is used at full strength…”

‘But it seems the damage to the soul is weakened – is it because of Transfiguration or compression? ’

He tried to remove the freezing effect for a tree that had not broken yet—the usual method of removing the spell was a little jerky at the moment, but it still worked. After about a minute, he initially judged that the tree was still alive, but it had been affected by exceptionally severe injury.

“And a hapless rabbit…”

He saw the life that was accidentally injured with his sharp eyes, and waved his wand and began to try to release the curse.

This time it worked too – the rabbit was pretty badly injured, but still alive.

“The effect is amazing…”

William reconfirmed the effect of the magic and waved his wand at will. Under the blow of the wind, the frozen trees were quickly blown away into pieces and eventually disappeared.

“It must not be used on people at will… Even Li Huo didn’t have such a terrifying lethality before it grew up…”

“It’s just that it takes a little longer to cast spells, it’s not skilled enough, and if it’s hit at the beginning of the flight, it may be harmful to one’s own side… But this is not a big problem, I just need to increase the speed of the ice puck’s departure. And adding some defenses just works…”

He figured out the changes in spells, and was going to find an open place for practice—the new spells had just taken shape, and there were a lot of places that needed to be figured out and corrected.

“You seem very busy lately, Professor William.”

After Lupin corrected his homework, he stood up and looked at the time. He found that William was still dealing with the thick stack of documents at the desk, and he couldn’t help asking.

“Almost…” William raised his head, moved his shoulders, and glanced at the time, “Is it all this time?”

He inserted the bookmark into the book, and then began to search for snacks from his desk. After picking out a pack of gummy bears for himself, he looked up and asked Lupin, “What would you like?”

“A chocolate frog,” Lupin hesitated a little, “but didn’t you say that you don’t dare to eat candy recently?”

“Well…” William glanced at the things in his hand, “I recently found a better way to consume the negative effects of candy and chocolate.”

As he spoke, he demonstrated with his left hand, “It’s like this…”

As he waved his left hand, a small cloud of floating water appeared on the palm of his hand. As William slowly pushed his hand up, the water polo began to enlarge, enlarge and enlarge, and gradually converged into a water polo that was large enough to wrap his left hand. .

“This is?”

Lupin stared at it for a long time, still unable to discern how this thing could be linked to weight loss.

“An improvement spell with clear water, I’ve been busy with this recently.”

“But it?”

“It has nothing to do with exercise?” William smiled, “Let me keep it a secret, Professor, this is a killer… The world is getting more and more chaotic, we have to prepare in advance.”

“Yeah…” Lupin sighed, “It’s becoming more and more difficult to see the situation over there.”

“Speaking of which, I have to experiment again. I don’t think I will eat dinner. This time, there may be new progress – I have been lucky recently.”

“Good luck then, Professor William.”

William left with half a bag of unfinished gummies, leaving Lupin, who was guarding the office.

Just as Lupin was contemplating the content of his next class, Moody pushed open the door of his office, all smiles, and behind him the twins were brought in like quails.

“It’s them again?”

Lupin glanced at the twins in surprise, “I remember that their confinement has not expired, right?”

“Of course… it’s just that it’s more busy now.”

Moody grinned, with an unattractive smile on his face. “These two guys actually tried to break through the new defense check to collect the owl’s mail, and I was caught by me.”

‘It actually updated the protective measures…’

Fred communicated with his brothers out of the corner of his eyes. They were caught off guard when they were collecting a big bag of dung eggs.

‘It’s okay, lower your sense of presence and see if there is any news you can find out. ’

“Really… I handled the last confinement. Where are you going to let them work?”

Lupin shook his head helplessly, this time he didn’t care.

“Don’t worry, I have to find out what they shipped in before. This time period is chaotic. I have to carefully question how many loopholes they found.”

“Be careful, Professor Moody, don’t let the human body deform, even when the situation is tense.”

“Okay, okay, I see, the situation is tense…”

Moody waved his hand with a slightly perfunctory tone.

—

“The situation is tense…”

The twins coming out of the office didn’t find much of any significance—or rather, expecting to find out information from a legendary Auror wasn’t very reliable.

“They’re talking about the tension, the last letter from home said, and Bill’s Easter presents, and even that big head of Percy mentioned it…”

Fred glanced at George, “They’ve all said something, but it’s just that the American wizarding community has changed to a chairman of the Magic Congress…”

“Yeah, the atmosphere in the school is not right. Don’t you think the professors are weird this year?”

“There are so many, even Professor William didn’t assign a bunch of homework, and the other professors also lightened their homework appropriately. Ron and the others didn’t have much homework for Easter…”

“It always feels like they’re hiding something from us…”

“Can’t be fooled like that…as if we were just kids…”

The two of you look at me, I look at you, as soon as this hidden mentality emerges, the progress of the original prank suddenly loses its original motivational effect.

It’s like when you play wizard chess, the opponent has already planned to kill your king, and you are still walking tirelessly forward, looking forward to what will become better after the end.

“We’ve got to figure it out… let’s stop the plan before we figure it all out?”

George looked at Fred with a bit of negotiation in his eyes.

Just like they would never attack Ron with a Bludger during the game, if they were really nervous now, they wouldn’t want to make some untimely pranks.

“Yes, and I suggest we ask that one.”

“Karkaroff?”

“Of course, Karkaroff.”

[It’s a mess now, and after hearing similar propaganda slogans, some of Durmstrang’s graduates are preparing to go to the American wizarding world after graduation. 】

[Unfortunately, my friends, I originally expected you to come to Durmstrang for a very pleasant graduation trip after graduation, but now it seems that we have no time to organize this trip. 】

[The chaos is not only in the school, the nearby magic world is also a bit bad. As far as I am concerned, I do not recommend that you apply to other countries after graduation, and I sincerely hope that you will not participate in the other side of the ocean. Things go, I always feel that there is more danger than I thought…]

…

“That’s all, it looks like our friend doesn’t know what’s going on right now – he’s also lobbying the surrounding wizarding world to be more vigilant.”

“Either at home, Percy, Bill, even the professor and our friend, the principal, are all sloppy and talking about things in the dark.”

George raised the letter in his hand, “Especially on the school side, didn’t you realize that, in fact, before the turmoil, the school side seemed to realize that something was wrong, but they never admitted it.”

“The source is the American magic circle…”

“As a result, they seemed to be wearing a veil and refused to lift it at all…”

The two looked at each other, and then there was surprise in their eyes.

“Do you remember first grade?”

“Of course, George.”

“At that time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com used some snowballs to deal with the scarf that never fell.”

“Yeah, it’s really nostalgic. I remember the gossip at the end of the first grade. Although I don’t know if it’s true or not, there is something amazing hidden under the scarf, and we smashed a lot of snowballs…”

“Let’s make a little more snowballs and make a big prank?”

“Would this be too risky?”

George looked like persuasion, but his eyes were full of excitement.

“Of course, why not, since everyone is secretive, why don’t we throw the snowball out this time to see what is hidden under the veil.”

“But we haven’t prepared for the exam yet.”

“Go to **** with the exam—well, for the professor’s sake, let’s finish the snowball this time and come back for the exam.”

Fred said excitedly, and the two of them radiated the light of exploring the unknown – this was more enjoyable than stealing a map from Filch’s office last time.
