Chapter 78
"Forget it, never mind! Focus!"
Devereaux shook his head.
Release all distracting thoughts.
He came back to his senses and observed Quirrell's spell display.
At this point Richlot suddenly stopped.
Raise your head and say to everyone.
"Well, since there are new students here, I will repeat what I said before class."
Devereaux saw Quirrell swallow.
He glanced out again.
"According to the regulations of the Ministry of Magic, there is currently no need to teach so-called "illegal black magic" to school students. They feel that the world is very safe now, and we should train more talents to...well...production ,Yes...yes, that's what they said."
Quirrell paused.
"Yes, but obviously everyone knows that the situation has changed, so this week I submitted a new lesson plan to Principal Dumbledore. He was very happy, hehe, it exceeded my expectations."
"But in order for this course to proceed smoothly, please keep it quiet."
Quirrell seemed to be extremely timid when he said this.
I barely looked at the students in the classroom.
Keep staring at the movement outside the window.
It was as if someone would suddenly rush in and take him away.
After a strange pause of more than ten seconds.
Quirrell nodded slowly.
"Well, it seems... everyone understands. Let's continue. What we want to show next is the Soul-Impering Curse."
Many people couldn't help but want to laugh when they looked at Quirrell's timid appearance.
Some people even laughed out loud.
But Devereux frowned.
"In other words, the Ministry of Magic still believes that the three unforgivable curses cannot be displayed in school? Then why did Quirrell say he made a mistake when showing me the lesson plan before?"
Devereaux vaguely sensed that something was not right.
But he couldn't figure out why Quirrell did this.
But Quirrell didn't care what he was thinking.
Lift the toad up.
Place on open palm.
For everyone to see.
Then he pointed his wand at it.
He muttered.
"The soul is out of body!"
The toad's body suddenly became extremely stiff.
Jumped hard.
Leap directly into the air from Quirrell's palm.
Then he landed on the first row of desks in the classroom.
The students in that row screamed.
And Toad ignored them.
Its limbs swayed slightly.
It's like trying to swim.
Subsequently.
The toad began to sway in some strange rhythm.
It's like performing a complex dance move.
Its eyes widened.
But there doesn't seem to be any awareness.
Just repeating these actions mechanically.
Quirrell waved his wand.
Toad immediately changed his actions.
Start with only your belly touching the table.
My limbs and legs kept kicking on the table.
The whole body rotates rapidly.
It's like a spinning top spinning out of control.
at last.
Quirrell waved his wand again.
The toad stopped spinning.
It jumped back into Quirrell's hands.
He stood up and continued to jump in a strange way.
It's like performing a one-man show.
Except for the students in the first row.
The other students were amused by Toad's strange behavior.
Laughed loudly.
If you ignore his glance out the window from time to time.
Quirrell seemed to enjoy this classroom atmosphere.
Keep making the toad do all kinds of funny actions.
In other words, his classes have always been known for being dull and boring.
It happened suddenly today.
It's quite surprising.
Devereaux didn't join the group in laughing.
But the corners of his mouth could no longer be suppressed.
【bite! 】
[New spells have been added to the inventory! 】
[Spell library: Soul-stealing Curse (Introduction)]
After all, he is a [Magic Wizard].
Under his undivided attention.
Devereaux instantly understood the methods of casting and undoing the Imperius Curse.
Now I think I only need to test it once.
He can then achieve proficiency.
Devero grinned at the thought.
"Al, don't blame me. Next time I sneak away to Hogsmeade, I will bring you a lot of fudge flies!"
Devereaux couldn't help but want to practice with Al.
Soon everyone stopped laughing at Toad's antics.
Quirrell wisely solved the curse and asked Marcus to put it back in the cage.
While doing this.
he muttered to himself.
"Perhaps you don't know much about that period of history. Many wizards were controlled by the Imperius Curse many years ago. At that time...you couldn't trust anyone, no one..."
These words made the students who were laughing just now shrink their necks.
"Haha, but fortunately, we believe that there will never be another large-scale control incident."
Quirrell smiled and comforted everyone in a high-pitched voice.
But the effect doesn't seem to be very obvious.
then.
Quirrell unexpectedly looked at everyone seriously.
"Dear students, just like when I showed you the Death Curse just now, those who are timid and feel that they can't bear it can close their eyes first. Oh, yes, you may also need to cover your ears this time."
Hear Quirrell's warning.
Many students immediately covered their ears.
But they still kept their eyes open to see the effect of this last spell.
"Because, the spell I want to demonstrate this time... is the Cruciatus Curse."
Quirrell trembled as he spoke.
It was as if some horrible memory had come to mind.
But he recovered immediately.
call!
Quirrell took a deep breath.
Then walked to the podium.
At this time Marcus had taken out the last toad and placed it on the table.
At this time, it was lying there quietly.
The lack of reaction reminded Devereux of Al's normal self.
Obviously he doesn't know what he will experience in a while.
Quirrell raised his wand tremblingly and pointed at the toad.
Devereux stared closely.
He did not follow Quirrell's advice to cover his ears like other classmates.
After all, he wanted to fully understand this spell.
If you can't hear clearly, how can you learn how to pronounce it?
Quirrell suddenly put his arm down suddenly.
Everyone gasped.
But nothing happened.
"Sorry, sorry..., well, maybe you can't see it clearly this way, so I think I should enlarge it a bit."
This suddenly broke Devereaux's power.
The students next to him also made a noise.
"No, Professor Quirrell, why don't you do the challenge for me?"
Devero groaned inwardly.
"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet and get bigger quickly!"
Quirrell bowed his hands and told everyone to keep their voices down.
Then he pointed at the toad and cast an enlarging spell.
The toad suddenly swelled.
It's now bigger than a bench.
After confirming that the students in the last row can also see.
Quirrell took another deep breath.
He pointed the wand at the toad tremblingly.
"Heart-breaking and bone-cutting!"
The words just fell.
"Quack——"
Toad's body shrank suddenly.
Then there was a deafening scream.
The voice was filled with anguish and fear.
It was as if its soul was undergoing the cruelest torture.
Limbs fluttering wildly!
The students who had been brave enough not to cover their ears just now felt regretful!
The cry of this toad is so sad!
It even made their ears feel a little sore!
They had to cover their ears.
Devereaux didn't cover his ears.
Instead, he stared at Quirrell's wand.
Quirrell's trembling hands gradually became steady amidst the toad's screams.
Until the end, it was as stable as holding a spoon for eating.
But there was a slight red light in Quirrell's pupils that Devereaux didn't see.
