Hogwarts Melting Ice Journey

The afternoon Charms class will teach the Disarming Charm. Professor Flitwick may have considered that some first-year wizards also wanted to join the duel club, so he taught them this spell in advance.

The students walked into the Charms classroom. Professor Flitwick was standing on a chair on the podium. There was a training iron man on the aisle in front of the podium.

Stephen observed it, and it seemed to be similar to the one Professor Flitwick used to train him last time.

After everyone gathered, Professor Flitwick knocked on the desk with his wand. The desk made a clear sound. The classroom instantly became quiet, and all the students turned to look at Professor Flitwick.

"Good afternoon, little guys. You must have seen the notice on the bulletin board this morning. The school has decided to reopen the dueling club, and I am the instructor of this club." Professor Flitwick looked around with gentle eyes. The little wizards who stood there said, "The Duel Club welcomes all students who want to join, but the prerequisite for joining is to complete some small tests."

Professor Flitwick pointed his wand at the iron man in front of him, "What you are going to learn in this class is an offensive spell and disarming spell. His spell is expelliarmus. And this is also the entrance test that will be taken later. part, so I think if you want to join, you'd better take today's lesson seriously."

The origins of the Disarming Charm are still debated. Some believe it was invented by Merlin, while others say the spell was widely used in Madagascar in the 11th century.

According to Miranda Gorshak, the author of The Book of Spells, the inventor of the Disarming Charm was a young witch named Elizabeth Smaglin, who used this spell in a dueling competition held on Dartmoor in 1379. .

"The disarming spell can cause any object held by the opponent at the time, usually the wand, to fly high out of his hand when it hits the opponent. If you control it properly, you can also make the opponent's wand fly into your hand." Professor Flitwick He briefly introduced the function of the disarming spell, and then began to demonstrate this spell to the students.

"You have to wave the wand in your hand in a 7-figure shape, and then say expelliarmus in your mouth. The tone must be firm and the pronunciation must be accurate. Only in this way can the power of the spell be effectively controlled. Now you can try it on these iron men."

"But since the space is limited, you have to queue up. Now, who wants to be the first to try it?" Professor Flitwick added.

Stephen raised his hand, how could he miss this opportunity to score points for nothing. Professor Flitwick saw him and nodded with a smile, "Then we'll ask Mr. Tony to demonstrate it first."

Stephen took out the wand from his sleeve, stepped forward slightly, waved the wand at Iron Man, "Expelliarmus"

A ray of red light flew out from the tip of the wand and hit Iron Man's arm. The Iron Man slid back a short distance, and then returned to its original position, and the wooden staff in its hand flew to Stephen's left hand, and was caught by Stephen.

"A perfect demonstration, two points for Ravenclaw." Professor Flitwick nodded with satisfaction, "The strength and precision were well controlled."

With Stephen's good start, the other little wizards couldn't hold back anymore and raised their hands to try. Professor Flitwick asked them to line up and come one by one. The situation was not always perfect like Stephen's, but instead was full of accidents.

Owen Cooper was the second to go up. He successfully cast the disarming spell, but the power was too great and the accuracy was quite inaccurate. His spell hit Iron Man directly in the chest, and then knocked Iron Man flying into the wall behind it.

Professor Flitwick had to get Iron Man out of his stuck position and then repair the wall.

Rowan didn't have any accidents. Although he didn't like fighting, he still had no problem understanding it. The power of Ben's spell was very weird. Instead of knocking away the wooden staff in Iron Man's hand, it directly made his arm rotate in a circle, which surprised Professor Flitwick.

Some little wizards either can't use it, or their power is too high or too low.

The most outrageous thing was Gryffindor's Rodiana. She didn't let Iron Man's wooden staff move. Instead, she successfully knocked her own wand away. God knows how she did it.

Professor Flitwick came over to check her wand. He picked it up and waved it, and a cloud of black smoke came out of the wand.

"Oh, Miss Anna, I think you may have to consider changing your wand. This may be because you have not taken good care of your wand." Professor Flitwick handed the wand to Roddy, "But it's okay if you don't change it. If you take good care of your wand from now on, it can still be used for a long time, but its power will be affected to some extent."

He waved Roddy to sit back in his seat, then turned and walked back to the podium, "Okay, I think you should already know how to use the disarming spell. If you want to do some surprise training, I will be there after class until the entrance test. In the testing room, you can come over and give it a try..."

Rowan leaned his head towards Stephen's ear, "Stephen, have you noticed Martin? Why don't I remember that he went up and tried."

Stephen looked back at Martin's position curiously and found that he was indeed in the classroom. He turned back to look at Rowan, "I don't remember him going up there, but I think this is normal... ...He really doesn’t attract attention after all.”

Rowan shrugged and sat up again to listen to Professor Flitwick's lecture.

"When you use the disarming spell, you must remember that your emotions need to be stable when reciting the spell, so as to ensure that the power of the spell is controllable. But if you encounter an emergency, you can do whatever you want. After all, protecting yourself is the most important thing. ..."

Professor Flitwick reiterated some of the things you need to pay attention to when using the disarming spell. He looked at the time and saw that get out of class was about to end.

"Okay, now you can read about this magic spell in the textbook. Practice requires theoretical guidance. Mastering the theory will allow you to use these magic spells better."

After class, because Stephen had to go to the Duel Club, Rowan went to the library alone. Martin and Ben followed Stephen, and it seemed that they wanted to take a look too.

"Ben, are you also interested in dueling?" Stephen felt that Ben had given him a strange feeling recently, especially after knowing that someone disguised himself as him and fought with Snape in the courtyard last time.

Ben shook his head and nodded again, "I just want to take a look."

Stephen felt that he had better be wary of Ben. This really went against the previous impression he had given people. Martin glanced at Ben expressionlessly, then turned away to chat with Stephen.

The three of them walked as they did until they reached the classroom where the Duel Club was located.
