Hogwarts School of the Dark Arts

Since the hot pot base incident came to light, Professor Snape, who serves as the Potions professor, is more "prejudiced" towards Xavier than Harry to some extent.

However, unlike Harry, Xavier was impeccable in the preparation of potions.

Impeccable in every sense of the word, even down to the knife skills in handling those materials.

In the first Potions class after the start of school, Xavier even received praise and extra points from Professor Snape for his superb knife skills, and used this to educate students on the importance of knife skills in processing medicinal materials... Although during the praise process He had a dead look the whole time.

However, Professor Snape immediately deducted these points from Harry. One plus and one deduction was no different than no points.

"Okay Harry, don't be unhappy. We all know that Snape is deliberately looking for trouble just to deduct points from Gryffindor so that Slytherin House can win the House Cup. Even if he doesn't deduct points from you, he will definitely Deduct points from others," Ron said with relief.

"I know." Harry nodded: "But I'm still very unhappy! Why can Snape still be the dean when he's so unfair? And why does our dean never favor us?"

"Because Professor McGonagall believes in us." Hermione said, "Professor McGonagall believes that Gryffindor students can beat the students of Slytherin House. Even if the Dean of Slytherin House is partial, we can win!"

"This has nothing to do with whether you believe it or not, Hermione, you must know that we are in an unfair competition." Xavier said.

"This has nothing to do with competition or not. It's a matter of principle."

Hermione slapped the thick magic book on the table.

"Do you know? Professor Flitwick will teach us more than three new spells this semester. Do you want to know what they are? I have inside information~"

Hermione pretended to be mysterious and changed the subject. Professor McGonagall was usually very nice to her. If she continued to talk about Professor McGonagall, Hermione was worried that it would eventually lead to some criticism of Professor McGonagall.

You must know that they are dining in the auditorium at the moment, and it is too messy here.

Hermione, however, did not divert Xavier's attention away.

"Does this have anything to do with principles? Even if Professor McGonagall abides by the principles and bottom line and doesn't want to deduct or add points randomly, she can stop Professor Snape from doing whatever he wants! Don't forget, Professor McGonagall is not only a righteous The dean of Lanffindor College, she is also the vice-principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and managing the professors in the school is one of her responsibilities!" Xavier said.

"Maybe Headmaster Dumbledore is personally responsible for this kind of thing, and Hagrid told me that Headmaster Dumbledore trusted Snape very much."

Harry replied to Xavier absentmindedly, then turned to Hermione and asked Hermione absentmindedly what new spells would be taught in the Charms class.

He looked like he was in a state of wandering mind, and I didn't know if he was really interested in new magic, or if he was just looking for something to say to kill time.

"I heard from George that the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was very good and taught them a lot of useful knowledge in class... but they refused to tell me what specific things they taught." Ron said.

"Oh, really?!"

Harry, who was in a daze, suddenly became energetic.

"It seems we finally have a reliable Defense Against the Dark Arts professor... I'm starting to look forward to Thursday. I really hope it comes soon."

"Tomorrow is Thursday, how much earlier can it be? Now?" Xavier yawned boredly.

"One second ahead of time is also ahead of schedule! It would be better if it were now, I can't wait." Harry replied eagerly.

"By the way, Ron, can you tell me how you distinguish your two brothers? I can't tell them apart every time I see them. I don't know what to call them. It's very embarrassing."

"Oh, I can't tell either."

Xavier was immediately confused: "Didn't you just say that you heard George say..."

"Oh, you said this." Ron took a bite of the sandwich: "When you don't know who you are meeting, you can call any of them by name. No matter whether that name belongs to him or not, he They will all pretend that he is who you call him."

Xavier:…

Learning is useless!

After chatting with Hermione about homework for a while, Xavier left the table first and planned to go back to the dormitory to rest after eating something.

I feel sleepy for no reason today.

"The sleepy spring, autumn, summer nap, and the three winter dreams of being unable to wake up are so suitable for the season of sleeping."

Just after walking around a corner, Xavier suddenly noticed that he saw a ghost messing around with something facing the door of a utility room.

"A ghost tinkering with the door? No, ghosts are incorporeal and can't do anything to the door, so... this must be Peeves."

Just when Xavier was about to get closer to confirm, the other party discovered Xavier.It suddenly let out a sharp cry, then plunged into the door and disappeared.

"It seems that it is indeed Peeves who is so afraid of me...but why is it so afraid of me?"

Xavier touched his chin and remembered that when he first opened Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Xavier saw Peeves once. Peeves was also very scared after seeing Xavier that time.

"It's definitely not something that happened after I evolved, but because of my own special characteristics... Is it afraid of Obscurus?"

Xavier guessed an answer, but had no proof.

Peeves is so special that he can walk through walls like a ghost, and at the same time he has an entity that can pick up real-life objects.

In the entire wizarding world, the only ones that can compare with Peeves are special: Dementors.

"Wait a minute, could Peeves be a special non-living entity created by magic like the Dementors?!"

A gleam flashed in Xavier's eyes.

If Peeves was created by magic, it must have been created by accident given its uniqueness.

But even if it is created accidentally, as long as it is created, it means that it can become inevitable as long as you master the correct method!

"Dementors, Peeves...if they can do it, then so can I!"

"It's interesting to think about creating a magic-like life with real special abilities!"

At this moment, Xavier suddenly found a new target.

Although Xavier still has no clue how to accomplish this goal, the only clue is the dementor captured by Xavier.

"Go back and take a silver knife to see if I can dissect the dementors. If it doesn't work, I will apply garlic juice, black dog blood, cinnabar on the knife... a combination of Chinese and Western, there will always be a suitable one for it!"
