The Daily Life of a Hogwarts Warfare Professor

Victor twirled the larch wand in his hand, determined to follow Hagrid's suggestion and give it a try.

In fact, he had no idea.Or rather, he didn't hold out any hope of results.

If there really was a God of Bricks or a Pharaoh in the Thousand-Year Bricks who was listening to his question, Victor would be too ashamed to cast a spell just because he asked the question about the breeding period.

Hagrid, on the other hand, seemed to be in high spirits.

"Wow, I've never seen you make a prophecy before."

Hagrid, who had only talked about magical animals with Victor, stared intently at the magical pyramid necklace.

"The professors all praised your ancient Egyptian magic. Dumbledore said that you can use silent spells without a wand. He kept encouraging me and told me to get rid of the wand. I guess he couldn't accept the pink umbrella. Aesthetic.”

Victor glanced at the broken pink umbrella leaning against the door frame.Analyzing in my mind: How did the wand come to be disguised like this? I want one too.

I wonder if Ollivander has this skill.

Although you can cast simple magic by yourself without a wand, the magic wand produced by Ollivander is much more effective than Victor casting spells out of thin air.

"This larch wood wand conducts ancient Egyptian magic very smoothly. If you want a good prophecy card, you can't be too stingy with the magic applied to the thousand-year-old building blocks."

Victor explained to Hagrid while casting the magic of "Alajo Opening".

...how to describe the problem I want to predict.

Well, I would like to ask you, if my red-eyed black dragon has a so-called breeding season, at what time in the Gregorian calendar will this behavior occur.If this question is too embarrassing, a rough prediction of Ha Long's life cycle will do.It would be even better if there was an actual live red-eyed black dragon in Egypt.

Victor poured his thoughts and spiritual energy into the Eye of Horus.

After the spell was recited, Victor kept using the wand and stared at Hagrid.

Immersed in silence, Hagrid looked quite depressed, "Failed?"

"Waiting is part of the prophecy," Victor told Hagrid to be patient.Maybe the God of Bricks is holding a council to brainstorm what Victor wants to predict.

After nearly ten seconds, the Millennium Brick reacted.The pupil of the Eye of Horus flickered.

Oh, the flash of wisdom!

Victor saw this and gently brushed the side of the building block with his left hand.Bring down a purple card like a small advertisement.

This prediction actually has an answer, it’s not a blank slate.

Victor spread the Pharaoh card in the palm of his hand and showed the result of this absurd prophecy to Hagrid, who was struggling to come over.

"You should know that I can't read ancient bird language."

"Oh, I forgot that, my bad."

Victor took the card back to his eyes, touched his non-existent beard, and entered the state of deciphering the prophecy.

To be honest, Victor spent seven or eight years studying ancient Egyptian writing from Hogwarts to Cambridge Muggle University.But there is no guarantee that the magic text of the Pharaoh will be successfully decoded every time.

Moreover, even if the Pharaoh card is an abstract expression, even if it is translated into words, it is hard to guess what it means without any imagination.Only with the help of the jumbled small-word annotations on the cards can one guess the right answer.

Otherwise, how could the final war card be worth Victor's translation for several years without a definite result?

Another example is the black dragon with red eyes, which is a symbol of disaster and plague.The annotation also states that "black flames can burn everything."

The card chooses to use it rather than actual scenes of disaster to foretell the future.Victor failed to interpret this in time, so he did not expect the plague on the farm the next day.

And this time the card, just looking at the picture, is also a black dragon with real red eyes.

But it's different from the dragon with its bloody mouth that he already owns.Behind this red-eyed black dragon is blooming yellow light.Like...born from light.

Victor immediately recognized the name printed on the upper side of the card.

A pitch-black spot, a string of symbols resembling a bird's tail running between two concentric circles, and three scattered triangles underneath the circle indicating the sun, followed by a string of letters that looked like early Greek.

It is the same symbol as the previous section of the previous card "Red-Eyed Black Dragon".

It also means "true red eye".

Then there is only one symbol left.

This symbol was very familiar to Victor.It is also one of the earliest ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs to be deciphered by scholars of all generations in both the wizarding and Muggle worlds.

It looks like a square with a missing cover.The vertical lines on both sides are slightly bulging, which was recognized by predecessors as "upward arms".

Its meaning is "soul".

"The soul of true red eyes."

Victor murmured.

"What? Is that the name of this card? Victor, I don't understand ancient runes or Egyptian pictures. You have to be more specific."

Victor did not immediately respond to Hagrid's question.He's also trying to understand the meaning behind the card.

I asked about the breeding period, and then... I got a card with the soul of a true red-eyed black dragon?

No, think about the full version of the question I just asked.Breeding period, life cycle, are there any living dragons in Egypt.

Victor made a bold guess.

His tutor at Cambridge once taught him to make bold guesses and be careful to verify.He has always been a model.

"Hagrid, I have some ancient literature materials that I want to check. Let's go first."

Victor rushed to the dormitory.He shouted to Hagrid, who was about to follow him out, that the tea was delicious and there was no need to give it away.Hagrid sullenly returned to his hut, muttering that "these Ravenclaws are all the same."

Victor rushed to the office on the first floor of the tree tower. The moment he sat down on the chair, a big book flew out of the bookshelf. The book turned the pages by itself, stopped when it reached the chapter "Life", and then Go back two pages.

Picking up his quill, Victor jotted down a familiar symbol he spotted on the small-print note.This is somewhat similar to the "eggshell" he deciphered before.

But there are actually subtle differences, and I was almost fooled!

The upper and lower ends of the ellipse are opposite in size. This symbol is an upside-down eggshell!

Victor copied the upside-down symbol and wrote his guess about the meaning of the symbol in English next to it.

cemetery.

If we translate it as a tomb, the explanation of the commentary on the Pharaoh Card will be readily apparent.

Monsters are recalled from the graveyard.

I'm afraid this is not a prophecy about the breeding season.

Rather, it was in response to the “life cycle” that Victor mentioned.

True red-eyed black dragons do not need to be bred.Every death is a reincarnation in the cemetery.As long as someone calls it from this world, it can be "born" again at any time.

Just like the evil god in legend.

call.Victor breathed a sigh of relief.Only then did he realize that there was a thin layer of sweat on his back.He walked to the window and let the cool night breeze blow into the office.Also calm down your surging emotions.

If the card "Red-Eyed Soul" means summoning the Red-Eyed Black Dragon from the graveyard.

The cemetery is just a blank slate.

In other words, when the card "Red-Eyed Black Dragon" is summoned too many times and the card's ancient Egyptian magic is exhausted and becomes a blank slate, or when the "Red-Eyed Black Dragon" is directly penetrated by the opponent's magic and dissipates, as long as there is The existence of the "True Red-Eyed Soul" can still force the evil dragon to appear from within the whiteboard.

It is equivalent to extending the life of the real red-eyed black dragon!

The excited hands trembled slightly.Victor took out the wine bottle from his arms and added "Red-Eyed Soul" to his deck, which only had 39 cards left due to the loss of a "fusion".

He was sure that after mastering the skills of controlling a dragon in the future, these two cards would become his absolute combat power.Just the mobility brought by firepower and speed can conceive of a long list of uses.

...If he can really master the skill of controlling a dragon.
