curse the world at hogwarts

"Ever thought about the similarities between you and Quirrell?"

As she left the safe house and headed towards her destination that day, Maleficent asked a question that almost shook Rhine's brain.

"Do we have anything in common? Is there some hidden computer system that I haven't discovered?"

"No..." Maleficent shook her head, "You all encounter the same problem at the soul level."

"Huh?" Rhine didn't understand.

"He was trapped by Voldemort's soul. Haven't you been affected by Rhine Lyle's soul?" Maleficent said, "One body and three souls, two of which were stirred up by early experiences. Just as scrappy..."

"Your problem is much more serious than Chilo's."

"Wait a minute? Three?" Rhine was confused.

Maleficent was speechless: "Nonsense, am I not a soul?"

The soul has a huge influence on magic, there is no doubt about it.

Quirrell probably never dreamed that his acceptance of Voldemort in pursuit of power would eventually lead to his continued weakening.

Whatever the reason, Voldemort did teach Quirrell some pretty powerful, even outrageous, dark magic...

But Chilo, have you become stronger?

"In your pasty memories, I saw a question being projected on some kind of strange machine."

That's called a computer screen, you silly bitch from before the Middle Ages~

"In the end, is Voldemort dead?"

Maleficent's words were like a sharp arrow, piercing Rhine's heart.

He remembered that he had indeed debated this question when he was exchanging comments with water friends. The answer was actually said by Dumbledore——

He could neither move forward nor return, and was forever trapped in a confused illusion.

The reason is his soul.

"If you continue to let yourself go like this," Maleficent said seriously to Rhine, "you will be the same, or you will already have a tendency."

"Faced with this world, you can't blend in and you can't break away."

"You seem to be pursuing something, but you are confused from time to time and can never find the most determined direction."

"The originally very ordinary and unconfident souls are constantly entangled in this chaotic state...In the end, Rhine Lyle and you will become a deformed monster entangled with each other."

"And you will probably become a real madman."

"At that time, it will not be you who save others, but those who have been treated sincerely by you once in a while and spend their experiences taking care of you who is drooling and empty-headed."

Maleficent, who has entered the state, is no longer the intellectual big sister she has always been, but has taken the role of the awakener to the extreme.

Rhine suddenly felt that if she could wear an OL outfit, paired with some black stockings...

"Snapped!"

Maleficent swung the staff in her hand and hit Rhine hard on the head, causing him to tremble mentally.

"Starting again?"

Ok!

This is a matter of the soul, definitely not some strange hobby of Rhine!

Once you understand the problem, you have to solve it.

Rhine's soul, whose stable state is worse than that of a four or five-year-old child, is the first direction to be solved.

Soon, he arrived near Hogsmeade without anyone knowing, but instead of going to Hogwarts, he went in the opposite direction.

There was the depths of the Forbidden Forest that Hagrid had never set foot in.

Rhine knew that the days ahead would not be easy for him.

But he didn't expect that this difficult direction would far exceed his expectations.

Rhine: "The Xuanzhong used for physical exercise...ahem...a wand that is so huge that it is taller than me?"

Maleficent: "No."

Rhine: "Okay... then what about a huge block of special metal that I can carry on my back and squeeze out energy in my daily life?"

Maleficent: "No."

Rhine: "Should we be a little more retro, find a waterfall underneath and let the water flow?"

Maleficent: "... It is the best exercise for your soul to restrain those messy thoughts that you don't know where they come from."

Walking into the depths of the Forbidden Forest, she took a deep breath of the surrounding air.

Rhine was curious: "Can you smell it?"

Maleficent: "...Shut up!"

Then, Rhine received his main task during this period - to study every plant and tree in the Forbidden Forest, and gradually become one with nature.

In short, similar to herbalism.

Rhine went numb on the spot!

As we all know, he has a magic book condensed by Maleficent, which records the level of his various magics.

And Herbology... doesn't even qualify to be credited.

"I am the Dean of Academic Affairs at Hogwarts! I am responsible for the teaching affairs of the students, not..."

"Yes, yes," Maleficent nodded as if coaxing a little kid, "The director of the Academic Affairs Office is an incredible scumbag in herbal medicine. Shouldn't you have some basic sense of shame?"

Although Rhine is relatively shameless in daily life, he likes others to experience his shamelessness instead of facing his own shamelessness...

Along with the wailing, a figure began to jump up and down in the depths of the Forbidden Forest. It even scared Hagrid, who came near here one day, and ran back to report to Dumbledore——

There seems to be some kind of ferocious and unknown magical animal coming to the Forbidden Forest. The school must take more precautions!

For more than half a month, Rhine lived like a savage.

Although I occasionally encounter magical animals, engage in passionate battles, and make people skinny and convulse while pretending to leapfrog levels to kill monsters and seize treasures, most of the time...

He felt like a beggar.

He chewed the stamen today and chewed the bark tomorrow. He was originally hesitant about whether to go back to celebrate Harry's birthday, but he decided that he had to go back no matter what.

He almost doesn’t know what normal food tastes like!

But it is precisely these seemingly ordinary barks that can make Professor Sprout salivate and make Professor Snape not hesitate to kill people and steal goods. They have given the Rhine magic world the best gift.

They continue to temper Rhine's spirit and gradually stabilize his originally chaotic thoughts.

At the same time, information isolation and being alone, which are difficult for modern humans to experience, also deprive Rhine of the opportunity to talk nonsense and run off the train...

Some nights, when he lay on the treetops of the Forbidden Forest, looking up at the starry sky playing hide-and-seek in the lush canopy, he could actually feel the faint resonance of his own magic power with that of the Forbidden Forest, with the same frequency.

"Honestly, did you have a similar feeling between the Magical Dark Forest and you back then?"

Rhine asked Maleficent who was hiding in her body in a daze.

Maleficent sighed: "How unique the wizards were back then!"

To this day, most wizards who still like to live in isolation do not know that this habit engraved in their DNA does not stem from their escape from Muggles, but their need to integrate with this magical world.

All wizards have heard that song——

"Brave Gryffindor, from the barren swamp;"

"Beautiful Ravenclaw, from the quiet bank;"

"Merciful Hufflepuff, from the open valley;"

"The shrewd Slytherin comes from the muddy pool."

They paid attention to the bravery, beauty, kindness and shrewdness, and fantasized about the unique magic of the four giants, but they never paid attention to it...

They all had their own birthplace of dominance, which was the source of their connection with the world and shaped the character, pursuit and even strength of the future Big Four.

The Forbidden Forest is a piece of pure land chosen by Maleficent for Rhine.

Here, he received the first gift that suddenly arrived in the world——

Really engage with the world.
