Chapter 324 Patronus Curse!

Umbridge was not popular to begin with, and no professor wanted to deal with her at all.

When Umbridge was frothing at the mouth and fell to the ground twitching, the professors who were focused on their work discovered this situation in the voices of the students.

"The senior investigator has been poisoned!" someone shouted excitedly.

The professors gathered around and then all looked at Snape.

"Severus—" Professor McGonagall shouted.

Snape quietly put a piece of food into his mouth, chewed and swallowed slowly, and wiped his lips gracefully before standing up.

He didn't even check, he just poured a bottle of potion on Umbridge's face casually, then sat back down and continued eating.

Finally, Haggerty, who looked disgusted, slipped Umbridge, who finally stopped foaming at the mouth, to the infirmary.

Madam Pomfrey’s final diagnosis was food poisoning. One of the ingredients in the kitchen had spoiled, and Umbridge happened to eat that spoiled food - it seemed that the degree of spoilage was quite severe...

Anyway, Umbridge needs to rest in the infirmary for two or three days before she can resume normal activities.

Professor McGonagall immediately sent someone to investigate, and the results of the investigation were given before the dinner was halfway through: a house elf named Val did not notice the spoilage of the food.

The result was also announced directly in the auditorium: this accident was regrettable, Val did not fulfill his duties, and was the main person responsible for Mrs. Umbridge's poisoning. However, considering that Val usually worked hard and that the students did not suffer any discomfort, it was finally decided to punish Val by not being able to work for two weeks, and the Galleons as compensation were also deducted from his salary.

Hermione, who was listening below, pulled Sean's sleeve: "There is no house elf named Val in the Hogwarts kitchen."

She already had the idea of ​​liberating the rights of the house elves, so Hermione knew the names of every Hogwarts house elf.

Sean shrugged and said that was normal.

It couldn’t be more obvious who poisoned it…

The question is, is there any evidence?

If Snape could be caught by the Ministry of Magic with evidence of poisoning, he would probably be beaten to death by smashing an egg in shame.

And there must be an explanation for this accident, so just find a house elf - anyway, the noble wizards of the Ministry of Magic will not pay attention to the job list of house elves at Hogwarts...

This 'unfortunate' incident soon passed, and the auditorium was filled with cheerful chatter again.

The next day, without Umbridge wandering around looking for trouble, Hogwarts Castle was much peaceful. In the free afternoon, Sean and his three friends came to the Room of Requirement again.

Originally, Hermione and Daisy's official Animagus transformation should have started in these two days, but considering that Umbridge will come back to disgust people in a few days, and she doesn't know when she can get out. Hogwarts.

To be on the safe side, Sean decided to delay the Animagus transformation of the two girls.

This makes Daisy, who has always looked forward to turning into a cute little animal, quite regretful - she has always dreamed of turning into an animal, and then letting Sean turn into a fire dragon and fly her into the sky for a ride.

In the Room of Requirement, Hermione picked up the parchment handed over by Sean and took a look at it, wondering: "How many of us can practice the Patronus Charm together?"

"Yes, let's help each other and make progress together." Sean nodded.

The Patronus Charm is necessary, whether Sean wants to use the dementors or the two girls have enhanced their self-protection capabilities.

The practice points on the parchment were given to Sean in private by Professor McGonagall.

She noticed what happened during the last dementor attack. Sean's Patronus Charm could only emit a thin silver mist, so she wrote a copy of her mastery experience overnight and gave it to Sean.

Therefore, Sean decided to take Hermione and Daisy to practice together.

Hermione picked up the parchment and read it carefully, then nodded solemnly: "It is indeed necessary to practice the Patronus Charm now."

"That's right, and I plan to teach it to the members of the Golden Dawn after a few of us are proficient in it."

Daisy, who was still a little disappointed because of thinking about Animagus, suddenly became energetic. She is becoming more and more lively now, and little girls always like the powerful and gentle magic of the Patronus.

"Come on, come on! How do we start?!" Daisy raised her wand and looked at the two of them excitedly.

Hermione and Sean looked at each other and shrugged.

Sean had a little experience with the Patronus Charm. Although there was only a faint silver mist, he could at least cast it.

After explaining the Patronus Charm spells and wand movements to the two of them in detail, Sean stood up and took out his wand.

"The spell and wand movements are important, but not the key. The key lies in thoughts and emotions." Sean explained, "This kind of spell only works when you concentrate your thoughts, so you must do your best to recall something when summoning the Patronus. A happy thing or something full of love and hope.”

He picked up the parchment given to him by Professor McGonagall and looked at it again: "The professor mentioned that it must be the gentlest and most powerful memory in your heart, and it does not mean recalling the clear scene and all the details of the scene at that time, It’s about focusing all your thoughts and energy on feeling the beautiful emotions at that moment.”

Hearing this, Daisy showed some nervousness on her face, and she took a deep breath.

Sean said with some humor: "Will the clever Miss Granger also be nervous when facing the new curse?"

Hermione glared at him angrily: "This is the Patronus Charm! This is a very, very, very advanced magic, and this ancient defensive magic has not been improved in any way to this day! You know what's in the spell book I read? How do you describe it? There are many wizards and witches who don’t know how to cast the Patronus Charm when they go into their graves!”

Sean blinked: "Okay, I admit, it is indeed difficult, but I must remind you that tension will also affect the casting of the spell."

Hermione's eyes widened in shock, and then she quickly took a deep breath to calm herself down.

On the other side, Daisy didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two. She had slowly closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling.

Seeing both of them like this, Sean took a deep breath and began to concentrate his thoughts.

The happiest thing, no, maybe what is needed is the happiest moment...

Sean did not rush to recall the scene, but quietly thought about it.

Previously, when he was practicing the Patronus Charm, he thought the picture he thought of was happy enough, but he failed to summon his own Patronus until the end.

You know, whether it is spell talent or inner strength, Sean thinks he is quite strong. Moreover, he has learned a lot of difficult spells, and the results are always pleasant.

There was only the Patronus Charm, and he felt that it was almost as difficult to learn as the ancient runes, which he had only two talents.

Joy, hope, happiness, love... Memories of these emotions come one after another.

Then Sean found that he was a little overwhelmed.

In every detail of getting along with his family, Sean can clearly feel the love of his parents and sister for him, and he also loves each other.

The moment he obtained the system was indeed a joyful thing, and he could even recall his joy at that time.

Making new friends and getting to know them more and more, that kind of friendship also makes Sean feel happy.

Dave, a foodie who hatched after being roasted in the fire for a long time, Nadja, who is cold and selfish but extremely clingy and gentle to Sean, Pudding, who appears to be a muscular man but is actually a arrogant kitten, looks like a scary monster but if he changes into The basilisk, which is more like a smart boy as an adult, and the silly little airwing that is still making noise in the ring and almost strangled itself to death when it was born - the time spent with the magical animals is equally enjoyable.

Grindelwald's weird teaching methods, although sometimes painful, always make people smile when they think about it.

Getting along with Hermione and Daisy, these two beautiful girls, also makes me feel very happy.

There are many more... Sean was surprised to find that he really couldn't choose one thing that stood out and made people extremely happy.

After thinking about it carefully, Sean suddenly discovered a point that he had not noticed. This point might be the key to his failure to successfully master the Patronus Charm.

He can cry and laugh, get angry and be happy, but, perhaps because of his status as a time traveler, Sean's growth perspective starts from the soul of an adult.

The experiences and memories of my previous life have always left me with a kind of maturity that is not quite mature, and a calmness that is not quite calm.

Compared to a normal boy who is almost fifteen years old, he has much less dramatic mood swings.

This is a very realistic situation.

So how do I choose... Sean sighed silently.

Soon, he put aside his distracting thoughts and began to recall in his mind how he felt when he received two letters from owls.

That was the first step in opening the door to the magical world to me...

Concentrate your thoughts and recall carefully...

"Expect Patronum! (Expecto Patronum)"

Sean opened his eyes and waved his wand.

At the tip of the staff, silver light began to shine, as if a new life was trying to come out of its shell.

But soon, the light dimmed, and finally, only a cloud of silver mist sprayed out from the tip of the staff.

Still didn't work... Sean sighed with regret.

However, this time the silver mist was much stronger than before in terms of size and brightness. Sean estimated that if he were face to face with a dementor, a patronus spell of this level would be of great use.

Progress is a good thing... With a relaxed attitude, Sean looked at the other two people in the room.

Hermione also opened her eyes and recited the spell.

The tip of her staff trembled slightly, and after the same situation as Sean, a cloud of silver mist sprayed out.

It's a pity... However, for the first time, Hermione has performed very well, and the girl's own face also showed surprise and some small regrets.

"Expect Patronum! (Expecto Patronum)" Daisy's soft, waxy but extremely firm voice rang out.
