A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Chapter 489 O.W.L.s exam, it’s not just about having the skills

By the time they returned from the Forbidden Forest, the game was over, and as expected Gryffindor won.

Harry grabbed the Golden Snitch, but surprisingly, Ron's performance was not satisfactory. Although it was a mess at first, he later found the feeling of being a goalkeeper and prevented most of Ravenclaw's attacks.

"Should I tell them about Grawp's existence?" Hermione asked tangledly, "Teaching a giant Chinese class, they will think I'm crazy."

"Tell them!" Aaron said helplessly, "The three of you have always shared blessings and difficulties, so it is only natural that they should help you share this trouble.

But you have to keep Abe's matter a secret. I don't want others to know that he has grown so big. "

Hermione nodded heavily. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that the glutton in her arms had turned into a huge monster.

As time comes to June, the O.W.L.s exam is coming.

Professors no longer assign homework and let students review the key points taught in class, but their pressure has not diminished at all.

Compared with the nervous fifth-year wizard, Aaron is much more relaxed.

In the past, he, as a prefect, had to worry about Slytherin's studies and life, but as the final exam got closer, Slytherin was obviously much more stable.

During this period, Aaron taught Harry Occlumency once or twice a week. Although his progress was not obvious, he had not had nightmares for at least more than a month.

What made him most satisfied was that after long-term and unremitting efforts by him and the missing body, he finally achieved the instantaneous use of the ultimate magic of the five elements of water, fire, earth, wind and thunder.

Although light and dark elemental magic only mastered high-level magic circles, his current comprehensive strength also gave him the confidence to fight against high-level magicians. Even when facing Voldemort head-on, he had a certain degree of confidence in running away safely.

The huge improvement in strength did not inflate Aaron's mentality. He knew very well that he only had the ability to protect himself now, and he had no money to waste before breaking through the Holy Magister.

The O.W.L.s exam will last for two weeks, with theory in the morning and practical in the afternoon. Of course, the astronomy exam can only be taken in the evening.

The night before the exam, the Wizarding Examination Authority sent a team of old examiners. Umbridge warmly entertained these authorities and arranged dormitories for them to rest.

The next day, before dawn, many candidates picked up their textbooks and notes and started reading page by page. They tried their best to seize the last time to review. Until breakfast, everyone still had a copy of the review materials.

"Don't you need to review?" Hermione looked at Aaron who was feeding Abe calmly and couldn't help frowning, "This is an ordinary wizard level exam, and it is much more important than the final exam."

"It's the same to me." Aaron spread his hands indifferently, "As long as you have good skills for the exam, I don't understand why you are so nervous."

Hermione's mouth twitched, speechless.

Harry and Ron looked at each other, with a hint of bitterness on their lips.

Listen, is this what people say?

In order to cope with the O.W.L.s exam, they couldn't even sleep well let alone eating. In comparison, they just felt that they were hopeless.

"Ahem!" Professor McGonagall coughed from the teacher's seat, "Leave the auditorium after dinner, we have to set up the examination room here.

Also, other deans may have said it, but I have to emphasize it here: Never try to cheat.

I guarantee that your predecessors have thought of every method you can think of, but no one has succeeded so far, and if you are caught, you will be punished the most severely. "

"Professor." Aaron raised his hand and asked, "I would like to ask, where is our new principal?"

A look of contempt flashed across Professor McGonagall's face, "She must be entertaining the examiners. Dumbledore has never been as enthusiastic as her. He is even more polite than he is to his biological parents."

The wizards of other grades all went to class, but the fifth-year wizards gathered spontaneously in the foyer and began to wait in agony.

At half past nine, candidates from the four colleges entered the examination room in batches.

The four long tables in the Great Hall were replaced by many single desks with quills, inkwells and rolls of parchment.

After everyone was seated, Professor McGonagall turned over a huge hourglass and said, "We can begin."

Aaron flipped through the test paper, and the test questions seemed to be simpler than he thought. They were nothing more than the spells, effects, methods of using the wand, etc.

The scope was very wide, but it didn't go beyond the fifth grade. In his opinion, it was a little more ritualistic than the usual exams.

During the two-hour exam, he answered all the questions in less than an hour.

Looking up at Professor McGonagall sitting on the staff table, Aaron raised his right hand.

"Do I need to change the parchment?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"No, professor, can you hand in the paper in advance?"

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment, and everyone else looked at him with envy and jealousy.

“I’m afraid not, you can’t just leave the venue during the exam.

I suggest you check your test paper to make sure you don't miss anything. "

"Okay!" Aaron said with some regret, "Then give me a pile of parchment paper!"

Professor McGonagall nodded with satisfaction, flicked her wand, and the spare parchment on the staff table flew to his desk.

Aaron stacked his answers together, placed them in the upper left corner of the desk, and then carved a complex forbidden magic circle on a brand new piece of parchment.

The instantaneous release of the ultimate elemental magic array is called confidence. Even double or even multiple releases only make it more confident. The forbidden magic array that can only be released by the Holy Magister is called the trump card, which must not be left behind.

The task he gave to the missing body was to create multiple instantaneous attacks on the ultimate elemental magic array, while he worked hard on the forbidden magic array.

But one thing is true, practicing magic circles in the O.W.L.s examination room is quite exciting.

"The exam is over."

When all the sand in the hourglass fell, Professor McGonagall used the flying spell to take back everyone's test papers.

The students left the examination room with different moods, and Professor McGonagall reorganized the auditorium. After all, this was also where the meal would be held.

"How did the exam go?" Draco asked curiously.

"It's not bad!" Aaron scratched his head, "Anyway, I've written down everything I know."

"I've written down what I know how to do." Crabbe pursed his lips and said, "But our results are definitely different."

"Stop saying that." Goyle sighed, "There is still a difference between Slytherin and Slytherin."

Draco shook his head speechlessly, "I don't expect much from you two, just be a little better than Potter and Weasley."

Crabbe: ...

Gower: ...

After lunch, the fifth grade students lined up into the room at the back of the auditorium, where Professor Flitwick would notify the students in alphabetical order to take the practical exams.

Aaron Gaius, Anthony Goldstein, Gregory Goyle, Hermione Granger.

The four students whose names were called entered the auditorium. The examiners sat behind several desks with various props placed on the desks.

"Just test some spells and relax, it won't be difficult." Professor Flitwick said, and then brought them to the four examiners.

In front of Aaron was a wizard with gray hair. He looked at Aaron meaningfully, with a playful smile on his lips, "Miss Lisanna's son, Mr. Ollivander's grandnephew?"

"Yes, can we start the exam?"

"Don't be nervous, kid. You have inherited your mother's powerful magical talent. The practical exam is nothing to you."

"I'm not nervous, I just don't want to waste time."

"As confident as your mother." The examiner smiled, and then placed a glass of water in front of Aaron, "Just use the floating spell to make the water in the glass float."

Aaron frowned slightly. The floating spells of others were all solid, but turned into liquid when it came to him. Could it be that Umbridge was deliberately targeting him.

The examiner seemed to have discovered Aaron's worry and explained: "Your mother is my student, and she is still my pride even after more than ten years.

I'm just curious about her son's level. If you don't want to, you can change it to a regular ball. "

"Is that so? Then I can't embarrass my mother." Aaron smiled, then pulled out the black wand and pointed at the water glass, "Wingardim Leviosa!"

As the mantra was uttered, all the water in the water cup flew out and gathered into a water ball in mid-air.

The examiner opened his eyes wide and then smiled with satisfaction, "Very good, perfect."

"Next, the color changing spell, turn it into color."

Aaron looked at the chameleon in front of him and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

When it comes to casting a color-changing spell on a chameleon, this professor is really... quite creative.

"If you find it difficult, forget it. Just turn the apple red."

Provocation, Chi Guoguo's provocation.

Aaron complained secretly, and then raised his wand unwilling to be outdone.

A little red light flashed, and the chameleon's skin became colorful and full of joy.

"Are you satisfied?"

"Full marks." The examiner praised, then placed a pot of green plants on the table and "Show the growth spell."

"I know." Aaron said angrily. With a wave of his wand, the green plants doubled in size.

"It's not bad." The examiner clapped his hands, "But it's not that good compared to your mother. She made the piranha in my office several times bigger and almost killed me."

Aaron: ...

The case is solved, the mother's debt must be paid!

Aaron immediately restrained his ill will towards the examiner, and his performance in the following spell practices was not amazing, but it was quite satisfactory.

The first exam seemed to greatly stimulate the fifth-year wizards. Many people did not rest that night and reviewed the Transfiguration textbooks all night long.

The theoretical exam of the Transfiguration class on the second day went on normally, but there were many surprises during the practical exam. For example, Aibo turned a ferret into a group of flamingos. It took them ten minutes to send those animals out of the auditorium.

Wednesday was the Herbology exam, and Neville Longbottom's performance in this class was outstanding, impeccable both in theory and practice.

Thursday is the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam.

Umbridge looked particularly nervous. This was a test to prove her teaching ability, but she knew how she taught.

You may be able to pass the theoretical exam, but in the practical exam, except for the students who have received special training at D.A., the results of others are not very satisfactory, and it is estimated that only a few can get an O.

When Aaron left the examination room, he saw Harry with a proud smile on his face, looking very happy, "What's wrong with you?"

"This course is definitely stable." Harry said confidently, "I conjured a Patronus and got extra points.

Umbridge was watching from the door at that time. She looked particularly ugly after hearing the examiner's praise of me. She had always wanted me to fail the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam, but now it seems that she has no chance. . "

"That's really congratulations. However, our principal is not only mentally abnormal, but she is also very vindictive. When she is in a bad mood, she will find ways to make others feel bad too, so you'd better be mentally prepared."

Harry's expression changed slightly, and most of his good mood was instantly ruined.

Based on his knowledge of Umbridge, this was really not an alarmist statement.

Friday is the ancient runes exam. This elective course is more popular among students, but it is also very difficult.

But it was extremely easy for Aaron. He would use ancient rune magic to enchant bullets. The maintenance of firearms and the alchemy that ancestor Alger asked him to learn are all related to runes.

Therefore, his practical exercises were far superior to others, and he finished the exam in minutes and won the exclamation of all the examiners.

There are no exams on Saturday and Sunday, but the fifth-year wizards dare not relax at all and are actively preparing for next week's exams.

"How many courses are left to be tested?" In the Shenming Palace, the missing person looked at his own body meaningfully, his eyes full of gloating.

"If you look at me like that again, I will ask you to take the exam for me."

"It's just a joke, don't pay attention."

Aaron pouted, then raised his fingers, "Potions, History of Magic, Astronomy, Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, Muggle Studies, there are six courses left."

"What about arithmetic and divination?" the missing body asked, "I have memorized all the textbooks, but you said you won't take the test if you don't want to?"

"The plan can't keep up with the changes!" Aaron waved his hand in embarrassment, "Hogwarts doesn't have that high requirements for professors, and you can become a teacher even without taking the arithmetic and divination test.

I am very confident about my results in Defense Against the Dark Arts, and I will definitely be able to take more advanced courses in sixth and seventh grade. "

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want." The missing body said helplessly, and then placed a sharp bullet on the stone table, "The bullet of the sniper rifle has been enchanted four times."

"Oh ho!"

Aaron raised his eyebrows, picked up the bullet and looked at it carefully.

"This thing is good, but we won't be able to use it for a while. Killing enemies thousands of meters away is really not suitable for today's wizards."

The missing body shrugged, "Sooner or later it will come in handy."
