Magical Studies at Hogwarts

The orientation dinner follows the same process every year.

In the branch, Dumbledore gave a speech, introduced the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, reiterated the prohibitions that few people would obey, then started eating, and ended with a school song performed by a group of demons.

For decades, there has been nothing new at all.

But as the first grand dinner of the new school year, the food will not disappoint.Whole legs of lamb, hams, various meats, and desserts filled the table.

The point is, even with the joint resistance of many professors, the pile of cockroaches still stubbornly appeared.

Licking it, soaking it, twisting it, it still tastes delicious!

Stewart and others are no longer surprised by Ike's strange hobby. Even Mandy, Morag and other girls who were very disgusted at first no longer care.There were even junior wizards who followed suit and grabbed one, but in the end they didn't have the courage.

During the entire dinner, perhaps Ike and Dumbledore were the only ones who were keen on this disgusting-looking candy.

"Merlin..." Professor McGonagall glanced at Ike on the Ravenclaw table, then at Dumbledore beside him, and shook his head helplessly.

"Relax Minerva." Dumbledore smiled and narrowed his eyes. "It's the back-to-school dinner. It's enough for one of us to have a cold face."

As he said that, he turned to look at Snape at the side, and then turned back suddenly as if he was frightened by that face that was colder than ice.

Snape didn't notice Dumbledore's indirect nervousness at all. His attention kept wandering between Harry and Lupin.Thanks to someone's deliberate actions, Snape became even more disgusted with the four former Marauders.

If possible, he would be happy to give these "despicable and disgusting" guys a slap in the face...

No, the Unforgivable Curse should be used again and again, otherwise it would not be enough to relieve the hatred in his heart.

"Click, click"

It had been a while since the knife had passed through the steak and was being cut on the plate, but Snape seemed not to notice, staring at Lupin coldly, while his hands were still cutting rhythmically.

In fact, in detail, Snape's hatred was more concentrated on James and Black, who were the initiators of everything.Lupine and Peter mostly agreed with their decisions. After all, one of them looked timid and timid on weekdays, the other had to transform every full moon, and they both had low self-esteem deep down.

But two of the former predators have been declared dead, and the other has just escaped from Azkaban.From the moment he learned that Sirius had escaped from prison, Snape had already made up his mind to kill him with his own hands.One is to avenge Lily, and the other is to vent the anger and resentment that has been accumulated in his heart for so many years.

Although no one knows where Sirius is now, for Snape, Lupin is enough for now.

"Revenge begins with adding wolfsbane potion," Snape said impatiently.

As for Harry?

Forget it, let’s deal with Lupine first.

Out of sight is pure...

Lupine naturally noticed Snape's state, but didn't pay much attention to it, appearing extremely indifferent.As a former member of the Order of the Phoenix, I agreed to Dumbledore's position as Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Finding a job to make some money was one thing, but the more important thing was to protect Harry and ensure that when Sirius found Harry , can stop the crimes of former close friends.

He missed it once more than ten years ago, and he didn't want to miss it this time.

As for Snape's revenge, Lupine had actually been mentally prepared for it.But perhaps it was the suffering he suffered since childhood that made his endurance different from ordinary people.

Besides, since Dumbledore was still there, Snape could only do some small tricks like before and just tolerate it.

The most important thing is Harry.

In today's magical world, Ike is the only one who knows the truth of that year, but he has no intention of telling it.For Ike, the most important thing about third year was not Snape's fight with the Marauder survivors, but learning.

Crazy learning.

There were a total of twelve courses, and only Ike and Hermione took them all in the entire third grade.Due to their stable performance, the Ministry of Magic also approved the application for the use of the Time Turner, which was handed over to Professor McGonagall before the start of school.

"Miss Granger, Mr. Strider, please come with me."

After the dinner, Professor McGonagall stopped Ike and Hermione who were chasing each other at the door of the auditorium, and took them back to her own office.

After entering the room, he ignored the two people who were still "winking" and took out a box from the desk drawer. When he opened it, he found two golden necklaces with a small golden hourglass hanging on each.

"This is a time turner." Professor McGonagall looked more serious than before. "You must swear that it can only be used for learning and not to reveal anything about the time turner to anyone else."

"Turning the hourglass once means going back one hour, but it can only go back five hours at most..."

"You must be aware that time-related magic is very unstable, and a little carelessness may lead to extremely serious consequences..."

"You must remember! Five hours means the hourglass turns five times. This is the limit!"

"Also, never meet your past self, otherwise something terrible will happen!"

Ike and Hermione quickly agreed, solemnly took the time turner from Professor McGonagall, and hung it carefully around their necks.Professor McGonagall warned them several more times and asked the two of them to repeat it before they relaxed a little.

He turned back and picked up two books from the table and handed them over: "This is the law enacted by the Ministry of Magic on the possession and use of time turners. You must write them down or even memorize them."

"I don't want to see you two in the dock of the Wizengamot..."

"Don't worry, Professor McGonagall, we will strictly abide by the rules of use." Seeing Professor McGonagall's eyes falling directly on him, Ike quickly expressed his stance, not forgetting to pull Hermione aside.

"Yes, Professor McGonagall, we promise that it will only be used for study."

"I hope so." Professor McGonagall glanced at the two of them pointedly, then returned to the chair and sat down.

"It's time for you to go back to your dormitory. I hope you won't forget the promise you made today."

"We got it, Professor McGonagall, goodbye..."

The two bowed slightly and then slowly walked out the door.As soon as the door closed, Hermione glared at Ike fiercely, then grabbed his clothes and walked towards the stairs.

"We still have some unresolved matters, don't try to run away this time, Ike Strider!"
