After changing the subject for the time being, Malfoy walked out of the auditorium, followed by Pansy. Today's first class is Ancient Runes, which should be for the convenience of arrangement and coordination. Similar electives seem to be They were all in the same building, so they came to the North Tower again, but this time the number of floors was lower.
There were no accidents along the way, after all, I came here once before, but there were a few portraits where the horse jumped off and was grazing leisurely on the grass. If you understand, he wants to charge on a war horse for a while, and recruit these students to be his followers for a while. The short and fat body is especially ridiculous with inexplicable words and actions. This reminds Malfoy of the boy named Don Quixote Windmill Rider.
They went up a few floors, and saw a bright iron sign, which was engraved with strange patterns, no, it should be words, and the various types of words on it were constantly changing, and Malfoy's dynamic vision was powerful enough. Successfully captured the moment when English characters flashed, which read: The ancient rune classroom is in the second classroom in the corridor on the right.
"It's really a special test." Malfoy thought to himself, those words had never been seen in the "Simple Introduction to Ancient Magic Texts" he had taught himself, and they should be advanced words.
Malfoy didn't put too much thought into ancient runes. Apart from his photographic memory, enhanced comprehension ability to a certain extent, and a mature mentality far beyond his peers, he didn't have any more talents in magic. Malfoy is generally cautious and cautious in studying memory subjects in magical subjects such as Potions and Herbalism. Without the guidance of professionals, he does not have the confidence to continue this difficult subject.
Therefore, most of his self-study in ancient magic text subjects was just a little bit.
The sign on the classroom is old, and the magic nailed to the wall seems to have lost part of it. A rusty iron sign hangs on the ground, hanging limply in the air. As soon as the two of them stepped into the classroom, they heard the call The bell rang.
"What a coincidence." Pan Xi patted her chest pretending to be surprised, but she was not afraid of being late.
"Who do you think wasted the time?" Malfoy raised his eyebrows.
"Okay, okay, I'll pay attention next time." Pansy stuck out her tongue playfully.
Then Malfoy found a place to sit down, and looked around the classroom. In this large room, which can accommodate at least a hundred people at the same time, there are only a dozen or so students scattered in each seat, responsible for the ancient magic text course. The teacher—Professor Batheda Babling sat on the podium, showing a faint smile, she didn't mind that there were only so many students in her course, maybe it was a little pleasantly surprised that so many students were willing to come to her class.
Batheda Babling is a middle-aged witch, about fifty or sixty years old. Unlike the divination professor who is full of jewelry and looks a little pompous at first glance, her dressing style is very simple, just light yellow The knitted gown and light blue shawl set off her friendly temperament, and under the wrinkled eye sockets, the eyes are full of depth and wisdom.
"Very well, I am very glad that you have the courage to choose this course. This may be the most profound course you have studied in Hogwarts. Of course, if it is just for exams, this is also the easiest course , You just need to memorize the knowledge in the book." The female professor's voice was gentle and magnetic, but not lacking in seriousness.
"Ancient rune is a rather contradictory course," she said. "Even Professor Dumbledore can't deny that the combat effectiveness of wizards in the wizarding world has declined. This is an inevitability of the times, and it is unavoidable for all wizards." Professor Babling sighed : "Because now is the era of standard spells." Her tone was filled with regret and rejoicing.
"With the progress and development of the times, wizards have gradually abandoned the powerful but equally flawed ancient runes, and instead used standard spells, but they are all part of magic. The more we understand, the more we will understand. It will help us further understand magic at a deeper level."
"Even some of the current spells still have the shadow of ancient runes, can that student say something about it?" Only one person in the classroom raised his hand.
"Well, Miss Hermione Granger, I think you can bring me a good answer." There are only a dozen elective courses for students, so she has enough patience to remember the faces of every classmate , and she had heard about this studious student for a long time, which made it easy for her to call out the girl's name.
Hermione stood up suddenly, looking a little nervous. This class held a much higher status in her heart than the so-called divination class. She had to make a good impression on the teacher.
She straightened her messy hair, took a deep breath and said slowly, "The most evil spell among the Unforgivable Curses—Avada Kedavra has some traces of ancient runes." Then she sat back into his chair.
Some of the rest of the students showed blank expressions, and some obviously had heard of this notorious spell, and their expressions couldn't help but change. Panxi was one of them, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, unable to accept the lessons she was studying It could be related to that kind of spell.
"Well, actually, my question set a trap just now." Professor Babling laughed, her eyes narrowed, apparently satisfied that the girl fell into her trap.
"But I still have to give Gryffindor ten points, because you're not wrong," she added. "Please sit down."
Hermione sat down a little happily, and was not depressed by her mistakes. This is the real lesson that makes her happy, not those unfounded "halo" that can determine a person's learning outcomes Suddenly, Hermione sat up straight again, because she heard the female professor begin to explain the question just now.
"It's not so much which spells have the shadow of ancient runes, but which spells don't borrow the ideas of ancient runes." She paused, looked around the classroom and continued: "In a sense, ancient runes Runes are the origin of all current spells, but the current spells have been improved countless times and become stable and relatively efficient."
"Well, I seem to have introduced too much." Professor Babling patted his forehead with some annoyance, put his hands away, and said, "If I keep bragging, your Professor Flitwick may be dissatisfied It's over." She joked, then tapped the teaching desk in front of her with the wand in her hand.
"Can any of you name a piece of equipment in Hogwarts that uses ancient runes?" she asked.
"The ceiling in the auditorium." Malfoy stood up and replied. He would not think that the magic that could see the starry sky outside the window was maintained by a certain teacher. The only answer should be ancient runes. He wanted to follow the instructions of the Big Four. It is quite normal to create such a scene.
"Smart eyes." The female professor glanced at Malfoy appreciatively, "Mr. Malfoy must have previewed it, so may I ask what runes are used on it?"
"Fixation, transparency, perception." Malfoy thought for a moment, then pondered. Needless to say, solidification is natural. The ancient runes of perception and transparency are like a photoresistor on the ceiling, which can be sensitive when night falls. Perceive the change of the light source outside, and then become transparent.
He has reason to believe that both technology and magic are just means, and if possible, under infinite development, maybe the two systems can finally get a unified explanation.
"Oh, perfect answer, Slytherin added twenty points because of you." Professor Babbling began to applaud spontaneously for this wonderful answer.
Hermione looked back suddenly when she heard a familiar male voice, then turned her head back immediately.
"That's right, it's normal for him to choose this course." Hermione thought to herself, she felt that he would definitely not be interested in those illusory futures, this was her intuition.
"Should I thank him for Ron?" Hermione began to think, with Ron's character, he would never apologize to Malfoy, and Harry was the same, so he could do it She should be the only one, at least according to the rumors about the second-year chamber of secrets, she saved Malfoy herself, so he probably wouldn't speak ill of her, but she couldn't help but think of Malfoy's harsh words during breakfast in the auditorium just now .
"Oh, help him and be affectionate? I just want to humiliate him. By the way, you ran over to thank me for him alone. I'm afraid that guy won't accept your favor." Hermione could guess Malfoy would say those things, and maybe even more vicious ones.
"No, no matter what he thinks in his heart, whether it's humiliation or he really wants to help, it's true that he helped Ron, and I should still thank you." Hermione unconsciously clenched the white quill in her hand, and she was done. Prepare to be stabbed by sarcastic remarks.
She could even foresee that if Ron and Harry knew about it, they wouldn't have a good look at her. She also remembered that the crack in her relationship with Malfoy was also due to her own cleverness, and she ran away without considering his feelings. Ask about the origin of the Sorcerer's Stone.
But some things must be done, and we cannot retreat because of friends' harshness and boredom.
It was her own insistence, a Gryffindor's insistence.
This may not make her popular, but she will not regret it.
"The origin of the ancient runes comes from magical creatures..." A kind and magnetic female voice sounded. After a series of guidance, Professor Babling started her topic today, just like many Muggle universities. Like the foreign language department in China, it is similar to a foreign language subject for students. Many professors did not teach "you, me, him" in the first class, but chose to teach numbers. Of course, there is no "you, me, him" in the ancient magic text "We have no way of knowing such a code name at present.
In the inventions and creations of ancient times, human beings or intelligent creatures may not have the concept of "reference" in their minds.
In short, when the teacher started to lecture, Hermione forced her mind to return to the state when she was studying, she threw away those distracting thoughts, and listened to the class seriously.
