The Plane Merchant of Hogwarts

Chapter 83 "History of the Development of Magic and Divine Arts"

Rolf slowly opened the cover of the book, his hands still shaking slightly, not because he was afraid of being caught wandering at night, but because he knew that an unknown piece of history was about to be revealed before his eyes.

There was only a blank space on the title page, and there was only one sentence written in the center, which made the reader's eyes involuntarily focus on it.

"Magic doesn't come out of thin air, nor does magic, and of course, neither do gods!"

Rolf read this sentence carefully, and it seemed that a different emotion was slowly emerging in his body.

Different from the Western church's propaganda that human beings were created by God, although Eastern mythology also has legends about Nuwa creating humans, there are also legends about immortals.

One thing that makes people feel very strange is that in the East, which places the most emphasis on blood relationships, there are not many families with extraordinary powers in mythology.

However, a Western mythological system that flaunts independence and freedom is full of family pantheon.

From the vampire family model, to the Greek gods of Olympus headed by Zeus and Hera, and the Aesir headed by Odin.

These divine power systems linked by blood relationships can be found everywhere, which made Rolf couldn't help but have a guess...

Could the disappearance of these gods in the Harry Potter world be due to some problems in the family pantheon?

He continued to turn the pages of the book. Chapter 1 of the book was a title that made Rolf excited:

"Gods and Magic"

Rolf read slowly, but this book was obviously not a book handed down from ancient times, but was re-copied and written by future generations.

There are many incomprehensible words in it, which made Rolf an extremely unbearable reading experience.

“The origin of the gods has long been unknown, and the gods we know are difficult to describe in detail, because the records of many gods have disappeared in the long river of history.

The known gods that we can still find records include the goddess of life, the god of light, the goddess of water, and the goddess of war. Other gods, except for some temples where no signs can be found, have been difficult to verify.

The above-mentioned gods have also disappeared from people's sight long ago. Counting from the time when the author is working on these materials, the gods have disappeared from people's eyes for thousands of years.

And we also know that many powerful magical arts come from these long-lost gods.

The author was fortunate enough to once interview a priest to the Goddess of Life, but through the conversation with her, I guessed that she didn’t know as much about the gods she believed in as I did. "

Rolf watched the author narrate his visit to the gods in his own voice, but there were very few things that were truly meaningful.

After reading this chapter, Rolf felt lonely after reading it, as if someone asked you if you have finished reading.You said you were finished.

But to give you a rough recap, you can only say that you should go and see it yourself, because you don’t remember anything. What it says seems to make sense, but what it says seems to be nonsense.

Rolf endured his patience and did not throw the book out. Instead, he continued to flip through it. He roughly scanned the structure of the book.

In addition to Chapter 1, there are also different chapters such as "The Origin of Magic", "Exploration of the Relationship between Divine Arts and Magic", "Comparison between Ancient Divine Arts and Ancient Magic", etc.

Looking at the title, it seemed to me that it was very awesome, but Rolf was really afraid that after patiently reading these chapters, he would still gain nothing.

But this thought soon disappeared, because when Rolf turned to the last chapter, he saw a topic that excited him:

"Ancient Divine Arts, Magic Textual Research and Examples"!

Is this part about specific magical spellcasting?Rolf excitedly opened the book to the last part, ready to see what magical and ancient magics it contained.

But suddenly there was a continuous meowing sound, and then a beam of light shone in time. It was Filch and his Mrs. Loris!

The cat had dark gray hair, a skinny little body that looked even thinner in the dark, and a pair of bulging eyes like Filch's lightbulbs.

A minute later, Fairf came over with an oil lamp, squeaking and panting, and shook the oil lamp in his hand around. People who didn't know thought he was shaking the red wine glass.

But no matter how hard he shined, it was all blank and nothing was found. But looking at Mrs. Lorris who was still meowing, Filch said:

"Okay, stop barking. There's nothing here. It's probably that annoying guy Peeves who is causing trouble again. The principal should expel him from the castle!"

He bent down and picked up the thin Mrs. Lolis while talking to himself.

Rolf in the invisibility cloak was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe. Although he was lying in Filch's arms, he was still looking straight at Rolf and meowing constantly. Madam Si, he couldn't help but have a headache.

Because he understood the specific meaning of Mrs. Lolis’s meow:

"Kid, I know you are there. Don't underestimate any cat's intuition. Either you come out on your own, or you don't show up in front of me in the future, otherwise I will always find out who you are, your I remember the smell!”

"Okay, Lolis, stop shouting, otherwise the professors will think something urgent happened in the castle."

Filch had already reached the door of the library at this time, and his other hand was constantly caressing Mrs. Norris.

Rolf was very glad that Filch couldn't communicate with this keen cat, otherwise instead of comforting the meowing Mrs. Norris, he would be looking for the missing Rolf everywhere.

He waited for Filch to disappear in the library, and quickly put the book back to its place. Firstly, it was too late now, and secondly, he was afraid that if he continued to stay here, he would really be raped by Mrs. Lollys. Seize the current situation.

Fortunately, what made Rolf more gratified was that Lockhart was now in his second year as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and he had many ways to borrow this book.

He stood in front of the bookshelf and looked at it. After feeling that his little move would not be noticed by Mrs. Pingsi, he tightened his tight robe and stood up to leave.

But what Rolf didn't expect was that Filch, who had just left, appeared again and pointed the light of the kerosene lamp in the direction of the bookshelf again.

"Come out, don't wait for me to catch you, come out on your own and I can let you go once, but what will happen if you are caught by me."

Rolf was secretly glad that he never took off his invisibility cloak and never made too much noise. If it had been Harry, he would have run away in a panic.

He walked past Filch calmly, and looking at the kerosene lamp that Filch was still sweeping around in his hand, Rolf knew that what he just said was just to fool the child.

Will he pretend not to notice when he goes out?Stop dreaming, his lifelong wish is probably to torture an annoying little wizard.

If given the chance to choose, he would definitely set his sights on the Weasley twins. It is estimated that those two would bring him great psychological satisfaction.

As for why Rolf dared to leave in front of Filch?Because when he had nothing to do, he once carved a silent spell model on his robe.

This spell model is not very easy to use. He also carved this spell model on his shoes. Malfoy complained every time that Rolf walked like a ghost and could not hear any sound at all.

Rolf successfully climbed back into the Hufflepuff common room, lay down on his cot, and fell asleep.

When it came to Defense Against the Dark Arts class again, Rolf felt that he had never looked forward to Lockhart's Defense Against the Dark Arts class so much, or even to every professor's class.

Ever since the elf disaster in Gryffindor House, our Professor Lockhart has never brought living creatures into the classroom again.

Now, Lockhart read large sections of the book he wrote to the students below, and sometimes acted out some dramatic passages.

It is said that his favorite assistant in Gryffindor class to help him recreate the scene was Harry, and in Hufflepuff House, Rolf reluctantly took on this responsibility.

"Mr. Scamander, would you like to come up and help me embody the simple Transylvanian villager I'm talking about who was cast a bubble-blowing spell and cured by me?"

If Rolf hadn't asked for him, he would have taken out his wand and given him a shot of water, but who told him to look forward to this Defense Against the Dark Arts class so much?

So, under the slightly teasing eyes of his roommates, Rolf stood up and walked to the front of the classroom, helplessly cooperating with the peacock's performance.

Rolf guessed that he must have some obsession with the surname Scamander, otherwise why would he be chosen?Hey, it’s all because grandpa is so famous.

Fortunately, this embarrassing performance did not last long, because the bell rang, and Lockhart got up from the ground and patted the non-existent soil on his body.

He really worked hard. In order to "reproduce" his so-called reality for the little wizards, he didn't pity the expensive-looking wizard robe on his body at all, saying that he could lie down immediately when he lay on the ground.

"Okay, today's homework is: write a poem about my deeds of helping Segundo Castillo! The best writer will get several copies of "Magical Me" signed by the author."

Rolf curled his lips when Lockhart turned around. He didn't want "Magical Me", but he did want the autograph.

He stood there, and when his roommates passed by, they asked Rolf why he didn't leave. He quickly motioned with his eyes to let them leave first, but he couldn't let them ruin his good work.

After the little wizards in the classroom were almost gone, he walked towards Lockhart's podium, holding a piece of paper tightly in his hand.

"What's the matter? Mr. Scamander?" Lockhart asked curiously when he saw that Rolf hadn't left yet.

"Emm, Professor Lockhart?" Rolf pretended to be embarrassed and stammered, "I want...to borrow this book from the library.

I was hoping to get some background on it. ” He held up the note and showed it to Lockhart.

"The problem is, this book is in the restricted area of ​​the library, so I need a teacher to sign the note. I believe this book will help me understand what you said in "Wandering with Ghouls" Chronic onset of venom."

"Oh? "Walking with Ghouls"?" Lockhart took the note from Rolf and smiled warmly at him.

"This is probably my most satisfying book. Do you like it?"

"Like it? Oh, of course, of course you like it!" Rolf was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be very enthusiastic and said, "You caught the last ghoul with a tea strainer. How clever!"

As for why he knew so clearly?Because he once asked Hermione which plot of the book "Walking with Ghouls" was most interesting to her.

Rolf couldn't help but sigh, sometimes Hermione's nymphomania has some unexpected effects~

"Ah, I'm sure no one would object to me giving a little extra help to the best students in the year," Lockhart said enthusiastically.

He pulled out a huge peacock brush, "Yeah, it's very beautiful, isn't it?" He misunderstood the surprised expression on Rolf's face, "I usually only use it to sign books."

Rolf looked at the quill pen and really couldn't figure out where he got such large feathers that were flashy and made writing more difficult.

He signed a big, curly name on the note and returned the note to Rolf.

ps: Two chapters combined into one. I’ve been too busy recently. I’m crazy about answering questions every day, and my brain is going to explode. I’ll be fine after this period of time. When I settle down, I will definitely make it up to you!

It can be seen from the word count that there is not much difference between the length of two chapters, but I don’t have time to describe it in more details~ So in fact, there is no change~

Feinan would like to thank you all for loving me no matter what!Shameless request for votes! ! !
