A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 77 The New Wand

"Bang bang bang!"

Professor McGonagall pushed open the door and saw Harry and Ron wrapped up tightly.

She ushered them in, and Harry and Ron sat down next to the fireplace chairs.

"Potter, Weasley, what can you do?" Professor McGonagall asked.

Ron took out a hideous wand from his robes. It was broken in half and connected only by a unicorn tail hair in the middle.

Ron said stiffly, "Professor McGonagall, I would like to ask you for leave to buy a new wand."

"Oh?" Professor McGonagall looked down at the body of the broken ash wand, her hair was combed meticulously, "Weasley, you should have got a new wand a long time ago, I said why are you in class?" Accidents happen again and again."

Ron bowed his head and said nothing.

Harry chimed in and said, "Professor, we may need to use your fireplace and go to Diagon Alley."

Professor McGonagall looked up at them, "Of course it's no problem." She waved her wand, and out of the tip of the wand jumped out a silver cat with the same pattern around its eyes as Professor McGonagall's glasses.

"Weasley, come to my office," she said.

The silver cat jumped out of the window and quickly disappeared from Harry and Ron's sight.

Harry was still staring at the window, and Ron stammered, "Professor McGonagall, we can go ourselves..." Professor McGonagall's stern gaze answered him.

"Don't be silly, I won't let two second-year wizards go to Diagon Alley alone," said the Transfiguration professor.

Ron had a bitter face. Although Professor McGonagall didn't mention the name, he knew that she couldn't be twins after thinking about it with his not very bright head.

Harry couldn't help but give Ron a sympathetic look. The relationship between the brothers was still frozen.

"Professor, what was that magic?" He changed the subject.

"The Patronus Charm, Potter, when you are in your senior year, you will have a chance to get in touch with this magic."

After waiting quietly for a while, the figure of Percy Weasley appeared in the office.

Seeing his younger brother, he was obviously taken aback, "Professor McGonagall, did Ron make any mistakes?"

"No, Percy," said Professor McGonagall, "Ron is going to Diagon Alley to buy a new wand, and I need a senior student to accompany me, and no one is more suitable than you."

The expression on Percy's face was even more surprised. He looked at Ron and couldn't help but ask him, "Where did you get the money?"

"None of your business!" said Ron angrily.

"I'm your brother! I warn you, if you dare do anything—"

"Percy!" interrupted Harry. "Professor Hemp." He turned to Professor McGonagall and said vaguely, "In recognition of the feat that night."

Professor McGonagall showed a look of enlightenment, but Percy Weasley was even more confused.

"Ron Weasley, I'm proud of you. So are you, Potter," she said with rare emotion.

Percy was about to ask something, but Professor McGonagall said, "Go ahead and be back early."

So the three stood in the fireplace, and their figures disappeared in a cloud of green flames.

After half an hour, the three came back.Ron held a fourteen-inch wand carefully in his hand, with a happy expression on his face.

Percy's arm was on his shoulders, and it looked as though their relationship had improved.

When they walked out of the office, Ron was still raving about his new wand, "The willow body, the unicorn hair core, it's a perfect combination! Harry, look at the lines..."

Back in the common room, Harry was pulled aside by Percy, who whispered, "Harry, can you tell me exactly what you guys did?"

On the way, Ron couldn't help but let slip that he, Harry and Hermione jointly won the school's special contribution award, but when Percy pressed him, the two kept their mouths shut.

Harry said vaguely, "You'll find out when the new term starts, he'll surprise you."

On the other hand, Ron couldn't help showing off his new wand to the twins, so he was dragged by the twins to play a duel game.

Fred said with a grin, "Ron, you need to get used to your new wand as soon as possible."

"Yes, that's right. We'd like to help you." George patted him on the shoulder.

Hearing the twins' proposal, Harry's heart fluttered instantly. He saw a few simple spells from the "Duel Book" given to him as a Christmas present by Professor Haip.

He was very eager to try the effect.

"Come on, Ron," he said.

But Percy wasn't interested, so Harry, Ron, and the twins walked out of the castle into a clearing by the Black Lake.

The four of them take turns as opponents, casting spells on each other.

After changing to a new wand, Ron's spellcasting was indeed much smoother, but he was still at the bottom of the game.

He was knocked down three times in a row.

And Harry first defeated Ron, and then narrowly defeated George, but when he was attacking Fred, he tripped and was fixed in place by a petrification spell.

Ron grinned happily: "So, that's how Hermione cast Neville's spell in first year?" He kept poking Harry with his fingers.

When the spell was broken, Harry immediately fought back - he grabbed a large cloud of snow from the ground and threw it on Ron.

So under the influence of force majeure, the duel game was changed to a snowball fight in the middle, and several people rolled in the snow like having fun.

After Harry completed a successful sneak attack with agility, he was surrounded by the twins. He ran for a distance in a panic until he saw the figure of Professor Haip.

It's a pretty weird picture.

Outside the cold castle, Professor Haipu was lying on a rocking chair, reading a book leisurely.

The rocking chair made a "creaking" sound, rocking back and forth.

On his head is a blue flame that stretches freely like a ribbon.

"Hello, Professor Hemp." Harry greeted.

Felix closed the book and sat up from the rocking chair with a happy expression on his face: "Hello, Potter."

At this time, Harry noticed that the title of the book that Professor Haip was reading was "Selected Collection of World Jokes", which didn't seem like a book in the wizarding world.

But it had the same transparent pearly color as a ghost. Harry suddenly thought of the gift that the professor had given Hagrid, and he subconsciously had an idea.

Is this book also a modified version of Professor Haipu?
"Harry—"

"Don't run!"

Ron and the twins also caught up, and they also saw Professor Haipu.

"Are you having a snowball fight?" Felix asked.

"We're practicing dueling, and now it's halftime," Fred said. "Professor, can you give us some advice? Your performance in the dueling club is amazing!"

"Ah, not today. I've decided not to think about magic today." Felix blinked. "But don't worry, I'll restart the dueling class after school starts."

"By the way," Felix looked around, "Why didn't you see Granger? Isn't she with you?"

"Well, Professor," Harry stammered, "Hermione, she's sick."
