Chapter 474 I Can’t Help It, I’ve Always Been so Smart!
Harry and others expressed doubts about Ivan's words.
"Do you really think she's pretty good?" Hermione looked at Ivan and suddenly asked, her tone a bit serious.
"As a friend, that's how it is." Ivan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
It can be seen from the original time and space that Luna is loyal enough to her friends and very smart.
In the last school year, he indirectly helped him crack the code left by Slytherin. It is natural to be lucky to have such a friend.
"Then you also believe that harassing flies really exist?" Hermione's tone sounded a little unhappy.
"I don't know. I never draw firm conclusions about unknown things!" Ivan shook his head and answered truthfully.
"The bugger is just a figment of her imagination, it doesn't exist at all!" Hermione said angrily, then packed her things and stood up to leave the Gryffindor table.
"Where are you going, Hermione?" Ivan looked at Hermione who left suddenly, feeling a little confused.
Hermione didn't look back, and it took a while before the voice came.
"library!"
Ivan immediately understood. Seeing Hermione's efforts, a sense of urgency filled his heart again. He took out a copy of "Analysis of Advanced Magic Curses" from the pocket where the extension spell was applied, and started to read it.
"Ivan, won't you go to the library with me?" Angelina said suddenly.
"What am I doing there? All the books I want to read are here!" Ivan was very surprised. He patted the books in his hand and took out a few more books from his pocket and piled them together.
In order to facilitate reading, Ivan had already borrowed all the books he wanted and carried them with him. He could read them whenever he wanted from morning to night without having to go all the way to the library!
This saves him a lot of time
There's no way he's always been so clever!
Ivan thought smugly, but did not notice Angelina looking at him speechlessly.
In the days after the Quidditch match, Ivan was still immersed in studying.
The grade points accumulated through hard work this school year were consumed in a short period of time.
And these efforts are completely worth it. Most of the magic spells he knows have been upgraded to the fifth level, and a few have been promoted to the sixth level.
Since there is no way to increase the upper limit of strength in a short period of time, it is a good choice for Ivan to make up for his original weaknesses.
However, considering that he would consult the alchemist master Nick Flamel during the summer vacation, Ivan still reserved some academic points. Coupled with the rewards received at the end of the semester, it should be enough for that time.
The only thing that gives Ivan a headache these days is that Hermione seems to have become very irritable, and she usually seems to be indifferent to him.
If we hadn't been able to review lessons together frequently recently, I might not have seen anyone for several days.
Harry and Ron were also very troubled, but their troubles came from the upcoming final exams.
Several new courses have been added this school year. Not only have the academic tasks become much heavier, but the content that needs to be reviewed has also increased a lot.
What worries them the most is Snape's Potions class, because they spent most of the class focusing on breathing and did not study well at all.
Now that the exam is approaching, they can only improvise and work hard, hoping to pass the exam successfully.
Ivan looked at Harry and Ron, who were frowning and memorizing the contents of the textbook, and shook his head helplessly.
At this moment, Hermione walked in from the entrance to the lounge holding a book.
Ivan turned his head and looked over, then froze.
Today's Hermione is a little different from before, she has changed from her usual casual look.
The messy hair was carefully taken care of, making it smooth and shiny, and was tucked behind the ears to reveal the delicate cheeks. The front teeth were also magically transformed to look like normal people.
This makes Hermione, who was originally not very eye-catching, become very stunning and even more beautiful.
Harry and Ron, who also noticed this, were so speechless that they almost didn't recognize Hermione.
"Hermione, how are you doing today?" Harry hesitated to ask.
"I suddenly thought of this, can't I?" Hermione interrupted him, glaring at them like a little lion.
Harry and Ron suddenly didn't dare to speak because of her aura.
Like Harry and Ron, Ivan, who was about to open his mouth to praise, quickly shut his mouth. He didn't want to be scolded.
Hermione put down the book as usual, sat on her seat and started reading.
Soon, the only sound left in the Gryffindor common room was the sound of turning pages.
"By the way, do any of you know the formula and efficacy of the shrinking potion?" While taking notes, Ron suddenly patted his head and complained.
He flipped through the book hard but couldn't find the page where the shrinking potion was, so he had to look at Harry, Ivan, and Hermione to ask for help.
Ivan didn't even raise his head, and answered casually based on the impression in his mind of a certain section of the textbook.
Hermione, who was opposite, spoke subconsciously, and the two voices immediately intertwined.
"The shrinking potion can make a creature return to its childhood appearance. The required materials are daisy roots, fig peels, caterpillars, a small drop of leech juice, and mouse spleen. The steps for configuration are"
"The shrinking potion can make a creature return to its childhood appearance. The required materials are daisy roots, fig peels, caterpillars, a small drop of leech juice, and mouse spleen. The steps for configuration are"
Ivan realized something was wrong and immediately stopped, but he didn't expect Hermione to do the same. Ivan turned his head and looked at the little witch.
Hermione quickly turned her head and spoke.
"It's better if you come!"
"It's better if you come!"
Two voices sounded at the same time again, and the atmosphere in the lounge became very awkward. For a while, neither of them spoke.
Ron, who was taking notes, was anxious and wanted to drop his pen. What are the configuration steps? You should tell me, don't stop at such a critical time!
Fortunately, Harry provided him with help in time. Harry felt that the situation seemed not good now, and it was better not to get into trouble.
"Aren't you going to see your friend Luna these days?" After a moment of silence, Hermione asked casually.
But when she mentioned the word "friend", Hermione couldn't help but increase her tone of voice.
"Luna is in Ravenclaw Academy, what should I do with her? Even if we are friends, we don't need to meet so frequently, right?" Ivan looked at Hermione strangely. He is so busy now, unless he happens to meet her, or... I have something to do with the other party, otherwise how would I have the time?
