Hogwarts Mystery Sequence

Chapter 12 The Dark Lord’s Dark Magic Class Begins

Last night, Amon rarely went to the library to cause trouble, but slept peacefully in the dormitory.

Mainly because what happened yesterday was really exciting, and he put in a lot of energy for it. He felt like he had played Quidditch all day long, and he still hadn't recovered from it when he got up this morning.

But at least the monocle can still be taken off.

Amon was sure that Voldemort had tampered with it, and Voldemort must have guessed that he could think of this, so this could probably be seen as a disguised show of favor by Voldemort.

As for the "little surprise" Voldemort called, Amon knew it when he met the trio - he was not only able to see the shallow emotions of the trio, but also read some of their shallow thoughts.

This may also be Voldemort's different kind of knock, telling himself that he can't resist his methods.

With a stick and a date, Amon felt that Voldemort's plan must be good.

At breakfast time, as soon as Amon sat down, he suddenly felt three undisguised glances.

Looking over, I saw the trio looking at me fiercely. Those six...eight eyes seemed to be saying: Don't think about doing bad things, we are watching you.

Amon smiled at them, raised the milk in his hand as a gesture, ignored their angry expressions when they felt they were being provoked, and turned back to finish his breakfast.

Overall, he is satisfied with the current situation he has led:

When he was "detentioned", because he noticed the existence of the trio, he responded to Quirrell specifically, which was just enough to attract the attention of the three;

And his unique attire - apart from the hat and monocle that he wore both to class and to bed, could easily arouse their curiosity further;

Naturally, as a well-known genius who has caused discussion both in newspapers and at sorting ceremonies, Hermione will definitely know something about him;

As a member of the Weasley family, it is reasonable for Ron to be reminded of his "son of a Death Eater" identity by Hermione's reminder - this is very important, because it will inevitably make them think of something bad. things;

At this time, they happened to see themselves and Quirrell "conspiring" - this was the illusion created by him taking advantage of Quirrell's subconscious desire to hide himself, and lowering his voice "tunningly" when speaking. , which will make the trio feel more and more that they have discovered a possible conspiracy between themselves and Quirrell;

Driven by inner curiosity, desire to prove and other conditions, they will naturally investigate themselves and Quirrell - this is very Gryffindor;

In the end, I was able to quite reasonably attract Dumbledore's attention to Quirrell in advance, and then I took the opportunity to complete the plan...

Amon pinched his right eye socket and thought about whether he had made any obvious mistakes.

In fact, before the start of school, he had imagined the worst outcome - just like now, he would be noticed by Voldemort and have to do things for him, so he was eager to complete the improvement of the invisibility potion during the summer vacation.

After all, as a child of a Death Eater and with a certain degree of popularity, it would be easy for him to be noticed by Voldemort.

And a little wizard might have miraculous effects in Hogwarts, so this possibility is not small.

Unfortunately, Amon didn't think of any solid response plan at that time and could only decide to improvise on the spot.

Regarding yesterday's response, Amon believed that he had reached the limit under that situation. All factors that could be considered were taken into account. Some conditions required luck. Now that he thinks about it, there is no way to achieve 100%... Fortunately, he Always good luck.

The only thing he didn't take into account yesterday was the following of the trio.

Now Amon still has a headache when he thinks about last night's stalking. He didn't expect Gryffindor's behavior to be so strange.

He also read some of the thoughts of the three of them before he knew that the trio was ambushing him outside Quirrell's office and actually planned to capture the thief first.

They couldn't do anything about Quirrell, so they picked the soft persimmon.

After all, he is just a little wizard, and there are three in the trio. If you want evidence, can you just "ask"?

Even if the car accidentally overturned, what else could he do to them?

This is Hogwarts, known as the safest place in the wizarding world. Dumbledore, the strongest white wizard in the world, is the principal of this school. Who can harm them here?

Therefore, the little lion is reckless because he knows that the old lion is backing him.

But in terms of the results alone, Amon is undoubtedly satisfied.

Originally, he planned to expose some "flaws" to the trio in the past few days, draw them into the game, and then let Dumbledore end early, but how to prevent Voldemort from discovering his "second-five" behavior was a serious issue.

Now, with the trio keeping an eye on themselves whenever they get a chance, it's easier to find opportunities.

……

There is no feast that lasts forever, and this slightly long breakfast will eventually come to an end.

Both the trio and Amon still have classes, so they can't keep an eye on Amon, and Amon can't let them keep an eye on them.

This is really a regrettable thing. Amon sighed and adjusted the monocle of his right eye.

But then again, the first-year wizard's classes are no longer of much use to Amon.

Therefore, in the Transfiguration class, while the other little wizards were practicing Transfiguration, Amon was reading a book. Only occasionally did he raise his head to listen when Professor McGonagall explained some ideas and techniques.

Since he had completed the task of this lesson perfectly, and the book he read was also about transfiguration, Professor McGonagall turned a blind eye to it.

Amon was like this in the following courses. As long as he completed the course tasks, he would take out the books for the corresponding courses and read them. The professors also chose to let it go just like Professor McGonagall.

Of course, these professors do not include Snape, who only teaches one Potions class per grade a week, and the content of that class will be very fulfilling.

It's a pity that Amon's peaceful study life lasted less than two days before it was broken by another accident:

After Friday's Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Quirrell kept him again and told him to arrive on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle at eight o'clock on the weekend morning.

When Amon mentioned the eighth floor, the first thing he thought of was the Room of Requirement. Forgive him for ranking his dean's office second, but the Room of Requirement is really a bit special.

That's not only because of the magical qualities of the Room of Requirement, but also because Voldemort's Horcrux, Ravenclaw's Diadem, is hidden in the Room of Requirement.

And it was one of the places Amon went to every night for the past two days... until Wednesday night.

However, he resumed this "good" habit since last night and developed another habit - not wearing a monocle when going out at night.

Amon didn't know what Voldemort had done to this monocle, and Voldemort had to wear it in order to gain his trust.

But at such a time as early in the morning, it’s better to let it “sleep”.

……

Amon waited until the weekend in a quiet study life.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, Amon arrived on the eighth floor of the castle in advance.

He did not go near the tapestry, but wandered leisurely along the corridor like a tourist.

At eight o'clock, the gloomy 'Qi Luo' appeared on time. He looked at Amon and nodded.

Then he brought Amon to the tapestry and asked Amon to walk back and forth three times silently thinking 'a place for duel'.

Seeing the door appear, Amon showed a suitably surprised expression. He raised his hand to adjust the monocle in his right eye and asked in confusion:

"Professor, where is it?"

"The Room of Requirement, a magical place." 'Qi Luo' opened the door directly and walked in.

Amon followed closely behind, and what he saw was an empty circular room.

'Qi Luo' stood in the center of the room, pointing to the position in front of him and motioning for Amon to stand over.

Amon stood and looked at the room curiously.

"Is it really possible to 'response to all requests' here?"

He asked looking interested.

This is a normal reaction for a little wizard to come to this magical place for the first time.

On the other hand, Amon also wanted to take the opportunity to trick Voldemort and see if he had done any research on the Room of Requirement. In any case, the mystery of the Room of Requirement made him curious.

"Only some requirements can be met to a limited extent. You can use this as a place to practice magic spells, and forget about other things." 'Qi Luo' replied casually, and then said impatiently:

"Okay, we're not here for an outing. These are not things you should waste your time on now."

"Of course, Professor." Amon quickly stopped his leisurely attitude. He took out his wand, stood up straight and looked at 'Quirrell' solemnly.

He had guessed today's purpose when he heard that Voldemort wanted a room for duels.

Although it feels a bit strange, after all, two days ago, it was said that he would have to see his performance and test him before he could get the chance to be mentored. Now, it seems that he can't wait to train him, as if he is eager to make him have considerable combat power.

'Qi Luo' looked at Amon's standard posture of holding the wand and nodded with satisfaction. When he saw his wand, he asked again:

"Your wand?"

"Elderberry, Professor." Amon replied.

'Qi Luo' nodded again. He knew the characteristics of the elder tree, which made him value Amon a little more. He even had the idea of ​​accepting an apprentice, but that would only happen after he was successfully resurrected.

'Qi Luo' got to the point without any hesitation:

"How much do you know about the dark arts?"

Amon thought for a while and replied:

"Black magic is a powerful magic that achieves the goals of murder, torture, and enslavement through unscrupulous methods such as curses, bewitching, and secret rituals that are not accepted by most people."

"These spells are often extremely destructive and irreversible. The most representative ones are the Soul Imperius Curse, the Cruciatus Curse, and the Killing Curse. They have no breaking spells, so they are also called the three unforgivable curses."

"Correspondingly, the practice of black magic is also the most difficult of all magic. A small mistake may lead to very serious consequences."

Amon briefly summarized his understanding of black magic.

In fact, he hasn't really started to learn black magic yet. Most of the books he brought out from the restricted area were about the magic stone. He didn't have time to read the few black magic books. After all, it had only been a week since school started.

"Yes, that's right. Black magic is the most powerful magic in the world. You only need to pay a trivial price to do things that other magic can't do." 'Qi Luo' opened his arms. Said drunkenly.

"Of course, it refuses to serve those wizards who are like mud and have no talent. Only truly powerful pure-blood wizards are qualified to master it."

"Amon, are you confident?" 'Qi Luo' narrowed his eyes and looked at Amon.

"Of course, I believe I can do it, Professor." Amon pushed up his monocle and showed a confident smile.

"Very good, this is the style a pure-blood wizard should have." 'Qi Luo' applauded and said:

"Let's start today's study. Do you know what is the fastest way to learn black magic, Amon?"

He spoke in a long, drawn-out tone that made people sound uncomfortable.

Amon looked at his wand.

"I think I know, Professor."

What better way to experience the essence of black magic than to face it head-on?
