Hogwarts Melting Ice Journey

Stephen had no more adventures in the next few days, which was undoubtedly a good thing for him. It allowed him to enjoy campus life. After all, a lot of things happened in the first few days after arriving at Hogwarts, and they were related to himself, which made him really unable to relax.

After several days of classes, Stephen finally got his record straight. In addition, due to Rowan's outstanding performance, Ravenclaw climbed to the top spot in the first week. However, the end of the semester is still far away, and they need to continue to work hard if they need to stay in the first place until the end.

After the last class of the week, Rowan told Stephen that he was going to the library to check out some books on transfiguration. There was no way, although he could always make things change, he couldn't completely transform them.

Stephen said he understood this. Based on his observation, Stephen believed that Rowan had almost found a method that suited him. Stephen suggested that Rowan could also ask Professor McGonagall. He believed that Professor McGonagall would be happy to answer students' academic questions.

Martin disappeared mysteriously again. Rowan and Stephen were both used to his disappearance. Anyway, when Martin wanted to find them, he could find them almost anywhere, except the Room of Requirement.

Stephen wanted to talk to Ben. In his opinion, Ben should be the easiest to find because he rarely wandered around in his free time and basically stayed in the Gryffindor common room. But when he went, the Gryffindor students told him that they didn't know where Ben was today.

"It's really strange. Logically speaking, he's not the kind of person who would run around." Stephen had no choice but to return to Ravenclaw Tower. He was going to write a letter home to ask about his parents and if there was any news about Jacob. Although he did not have a strong sense of belonging to this family, he still wrote letters as usual.

I answered the knocker's question casually. After the first day, the knocker never asked a question as tricky as that time. Stephen walked into the common room. There were usually only a few people in the common room on weekends, even if there were classes this Saturday.

Stephen's eyes fell on a blond senior student. He was writing something. There was already a pile of papers on the table, and a lot of them fell to the ground.

A gust of wind blew in, blowing a piece of paper to Stephen's feet. He picked it up and looked at it. "Gilderoy Lockhart" was written all over it. He knew who this was, but he didn't expect that Lockhart really hadn't graduated and was from the same college as him.

"Senior Lockhart, I think this should be your thing." Stephen walked over and handed the piece of paper to the blond student, "I suggest you keep your signature."

"Oh, I think you can collect this piece of paper. Believe me, I will be very famous in the future, and this piece of paper will be very collectible." Lockhart looked up at Stephen and showed his signature smile .

Not to mention, if you don’t bring any subjective views on his future tricks, his smile is indeed charming, but it is a bit disgusting for Stephen.

But he thought for a second and decided to fool Lockhart, which might work: "Senior Lockhart, I think you should ask me for my autograph. I think my autograph will be a stepping stone on your road to success. As for you I really don’t like his signature.”

Stephen folded the piece of paper into a paper airplane, threw it out of the window, and then looked at Lockhart: "Are you interested in discussing cooperation, Senior Lockhart? I can help you become famous, and you need to do something for me."

He thought about Lockhart's future performance, and he felt that using fame and fortune to seduce, oh no, attract Lockhart, would be very effective.

"Think about the stupid things you did, Senior Lockhart." Although Stephen didn't know if Lockhart had done anything stupid when he was in school, it didn't stop him from defrauding Lockhart. "Those people just I’ll think you’re a joke, a clown.”

Lockhart's smile froze, and instantly turned gloomy: "You are right, I once engraved my name on the Quidditch pitch and projected my portrait into the sky when the game started. I thought they You will admire me, but everyone treats me as a clown. I think we can indeed cooperate, but I first need to make sure you are not fooling me."

"My brother is Jacob Tony." Stephen realized that Lockhart had taken the bait. He only said this sentence to see if Lockhart could figure it out on his own. If you can, there's no need to bother.

"Jacob Tony, well, I heard about him, a seventh-year student, a Death Eater, who wanted to find the cursed treasure trove but disappeared. Wait, the cursed treasure trove." Lockhart looked at Stephen thoughtfully.

"Lockhart, I suggest you don't think about using memory charms. You must know that my brother is very good at this." Stephen smiled, staring at the movements of Lockhart's hands. "I think you are a smart Raven. Crow."

"It seems you know what I'm good at." Lockhart put his hands on the table. "What can I get?"

"A story that can make you famous. But the risk is also very high, and you know why. So you can also choose not to join, and I will provide you with the material for the story. Oh, and I can also provide you with many small ways to become famous. "Stephen didn't say it was a story about a cursed treasure house. Smart people will figure it out on their own.

"Then what price do I have to pay?"

"You just need to help me with a few small favors when the time comes. Except that it may be a little dangerous sometimes, but I think it should be easy with your ability at that time."

Stephen added: "It is definitely within your ability, and it is not now or some time in the future, but ten years later, I will let you cash it in."

Lockhart was moved. It was basically a good thing next time. How could he not do it? If Stephen dies before cashing out, then he will make a profit in blood. "Okay, I agree, but I think we need to make a contract."

"Of course, an unbreakable oath. As for the witness, I think you came at the right time, Martin." Stephen saw Martin behind Lockhart.

"What the hell, when did you show up?" Lockhart was also startled by Martin just like Rowan.

Martin nodded to Stephen, indicating that Stephen agreed to be a witness.

Stephen and Lockhart made an unbreakable oath: Stephen provided Lockhart with three ways to become famous, as well as a story material that would make him famous; Lockhart must fulfill it after accepting the method, and promised that after ten years, Complete the three things Stephen asked him to do.

Looking at it this way, Lockhart actually seems to be at a loss, but it is hard to say whether Stephen will be alive or not in ten years, and why not use the method of becoming famous.

"I think I can provide you with three ways to become famous now." Stephen looked at Lockhart, "First, you have to travel constantly. Without the corresponding strength, you are just a vase."

Lockhart nodded to agree with his point of view. At this time, he was not like after graduation and just wanted to take shortcuts.

"Second, the Muggle film industry is very good. You have a charming smile and your acting skills should be very good. You can go to Muggles to make a few movies. I believe you will become a well-known figure in Muggles." Stephen gave a solution that was not very good for the wizard, but he believed that Lockhart would not mind this.

"I have heard about Muggle movies, and I believe this will make me a well-known figure in the Muggle world." Lockhart nodded. For him, being famous is a good way, and it doesn't matter where he becomes famous.

"Maybe you can become a typical representative of harmonious exchanges between wizards and Muggles, and win a third-level medal of the Order of Merlin." Stephen thought of something funny.

"The third method is to find experienced wizards when traveling and try to get them to tell you how to face dark creatures. Accumulate experience from their experiences. Don't think about using memory magic such as forgetting spells. "He added a patch smoothly, and then said, "Combined with the first method, you can hone your strength."

"But that doesn't sound like it would make me famous." Lockhart was uninterested.

"You can come back as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Think about it, all the students in the school have listened to your wonderful lectures and praised you full of praise after graduation. And if that doesn't work, you can write a book after traveling around the world."

Although Lockhart was still not very interested, he was a little excited when he heard that he could return to Hogwarts to teach in the future. He nodded to express his acceptance of this method.
