The Wizard Supreme at Hogwarts

Chapter 185 Elf Luke

In the past, modern wizards' general understanding of ancient runes was still at the level of "ancient scripts".Although the wizards learned that the ancient runes contained magical powers by reading various documents, they did not know the details.

In the magical world where "knowledge is power", even if some wizards have researched some specific results, most of them will not publicize them, but will leave them as a kind of "inheritance" to their descendants.

Because of this, the power of magic is not as good as one generation after another.Because even if some magic lost its inheritance, other wizards would not know about it, and could only let them rot in silence.

And the magic literature that was once brilliant in ancient times has gradually evolved into the current "ancient magic literature".

Norling listened to Professor Hunter's lecture, but involuntarily started to wander in his heart.He was sure that Rowena Ravenclaw was also a researcher of magic literature, and the research was probably quite in-depth, but why did Hogwarts only leave a scaly claw of ancient magic literature?
"...All in all, the mysteries of ancient magic literature far exceed our imagination."

After finishing the explanation just now, Professor Hunter changed the subject and said, "Next, we will start with the ancient runes that are easiest for everyone to understand, and slowly uncover the mystery of the ancient runes..."

It was also a liberal arts subject, Professor Hunter's Ancient Runes class was much more vivid in Norlin's mind than Professor Binns' History of Magic.Although Noreen is also very interested in the history of magic, Professor Binns is a ghost after all, and he cannot be expected to maintain a vivid and vivid style in his lectures.

Professor Hunt's rune class gave the students a sense of "this is magic too".Although in the specific study, everyone still can't avoid the boring of reciting, but everyone's interest has been aroused by the application of rune that Professor Hunt shows from time to time.

This also made everyone have a good impression of this new professor for the first time.

The next few weeks were the most student-like for Noreen in Durmstrang.Get up on time every day, eat on time, go to class on time, do homework on time, and go to bed on time.Classwork is stable.

Durmstrang's professors are also very good at teaching. Except for the somewhat cumbersome after-school homework of the Transfiguration class and the ancient runes, everything is going on smoothly and smoothly.

During this period, the presidents of those associations still secretly invited them, but they rebuffed the wall under Nuolin's firm attitude, and felt very sorry.

If anything, the only thing that has changed is the presence of house elves in Noreen and Campbell's quarters.He was bending over, wiping the glass, tables and chairs, and the edge of the bed in the dormitory, meticulously, as if to clean up any dirt in the room.

Noreen still remembers the first time the house-elf appeared.

That day, Campbell was still talking about his guess about the Chamber of Secrets with Norlin, and Norlin was very interested in it, carefully studying the ancient rune at the table, but was startled by a sudden explosion, and Campbell almost jumped out of bed. fall down.

It wasn't until he put on his glasses that he could see the source of the noise clearly.

A scrawny house-elf with ears as big as a bat and eyes like green tennis balls appeared in the room.Wearing a shabby cotton jacket, it bowed deeply to Norin, its long and flat nose almost touched the carpet, and whispered in its mouth:
"Dear Mr. Davis, after fierce competition in the clan, I finally won the opportunity to be your loyal servant."

Norin stared blankly at him, the quill in his hand kept dripping ink on the parchment without him noticing.

"You are……"

Norling said in amazement, he was sure he had never seen this house elf.In fact, he hadn't encountered a single elf yet, save the eyes of Gringotts.

"My name is Luke, Mr. Davies."

The house-elf who called himself Luke bowed again, facing the floor for a long time.

Noreen looked at Luke, not knowing what to do.He has never encountered such a battle.A house elf suddenly appeared, and he wanted to recognize him as the master without saying a word, but he didn't react immediately.

After the War of Elves and Wizards, a large proportion of elves became house-elves.They are a lowly race, they must serve their masters from generation to generation, undertake all housework, be bound by their masters, they cannot disobey their master's orders at will, if they disobey, they must punish themselves.No pay, no holidays.

Not to mention being a slave.

The strange thing is that the house elves don't know or dare not fight for their own rights, and they regard serving their masters as their greatest honor for life.

There is only one exception, Dobby, who is a house-elf with independent consciousness, longing for freedom and advocating light.It's just that such thoughts are regarded as aliens among house elves and are rejected by many tribesmen.

Thinking of Dobby, Norin suddenly thought, if according to the time in the original book, Dobby should have been in contact with Harry by this time.It's just that the basilisk in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets has been slaughtered now. I don't know if Voldemort will come up with any moths, and it's not sure if Dobby will show up or not.

"Um... Luke? Why did you come after me?"

Norlin was dazed, his eyes refocused on the house elf, and he asked strangely.

"Because you are very strong, Mr. Davis, and it is an honor for all the house-elves to serve you."

Luke said in a high-pitched voice, still bowed and did not stand up, unable to see his expression clearly, Norin was afraid that his waist would be broken when he looked at it.

It was only then that Norin remembered what he had said in the restaurant when he first met Giles.At that time, I thought he was joking, but I didn't expect him to be right.

"I don't think I need a servant..."

Norin said hesitantly, with a tactful tone, afraid of irritating the house elf.When he was a child, his mother, Liana, took good care of him in terms of food, clothing, daily life, and arranged clearly. He was a little uncomfortable, let alone convincing a house elf with top skills.

To put it bluntly, he is not the kind of young master.

However, Luke trembled as if he had heard some severe accusation, and kept saying in his mouth:

"Please let me stay, Mr. Davis! If I go back, I will be ridiculed forever by the people..."

Nolin rubbed his head with a headache and looked at Campbell, hoping for some advice from him.Campbell, however, saw that it was none of his business, and retreated to the bed to study his Chamber of Secrets guide.

Luke had already raised his head, and his big eyes were full of tears. It seemed that if Noreen refused again, he would cry immediately.

"Then follow me."

Nuo Lin couldn't bear to see it. After thinking about it, it wasn't a big deal, so he agreed with a soft tone.

"It's Luke's pleasure!"

Luke screamed and fell to the floor again, with a gleam in his eye that Noreen couldn't see.
