Hogwarts in a parallel world

Chapter 60 The Room of Requirement

Surrounded by the cheering Gryffindor crowd, Aurora, Hermione, Harry, and Ron returned to the common room.Ron's twin brother approached Hermione solemnly and said that they wanted to write a summary of the battle, but Hermione refused.

"This is the result of teamwork." Hermione was a little embarrassed.

"We shouldn't forget about Winters either," Harry said, giving Winters a cup of lemon tea.

"Without his efforts, we would have to face Elena - facing her, no matter how good our teamwork is, it will be in vain," Harry continued after drinking the water.

"There's one thing I don't quite understand. I remember that Delk was scared away by Aurora, but I didn't see him showing any cowardice in the rest area just now." Winters remembered that Aurora had scared away Del. gram.

"He had special training last summer. He couldn't accept the fact that he was worse than he thought he was, and he worked very hard." Neville's round face showed some anxiety again.

"We are not afraid of him anyway. Since we can defeat him once, we can defeat him a second time." Aurora was full of confidence.Friday of the first semester of school ended in a happy atmosphere.

At 6:30 on Saturday morning, Winters heard a noise.

"Quidditch?" Winters said drowsily.

"No way, Wood is just like this, crazy about Quidditch - where are my shoes?" Harry said with a yawn.

"Say hello to Aurora for me - if she's going to train too. I want to take a nap." Then Winters fell asleep again, and he didn't wake up until almost 9 o'clock.As soon as he put on his coat, he saw a glowing snake floating outside the window, and he heard some vague sounds.

"Today at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the first meeting place is the library" was Elena's voice.Although it was a little blurry, I could still hear it clearly.

"No problem" Winters whispered as Neville and Ron snored.Then Elena's patronus spell disappeared.

People were sparsely sitting in the auditorium. Hermione had a dark circle under her eyes. It was obvious that she was still in a state of excitement after returning to the dormitory yesterday.

"You were so high yesterday, that's not like you." Winters looked at Hermione's listless look. It might be more than just insomnia.

"The whole dormitory was sleepless. They were all discussing the details of the duel. Except for Aurora, she was told that she had to train today, and then she cast a sleeping spell on herself before falling asleep." Hermione couldn't stop yawning.At this time, Slyer also came to the auditorium with dark circles under his eyes.

"I don't know, I thought Hufflepuff won the House Cup." Slyer smiled bitterly. His dark circles were better than Hermione's.

"Who did you fight yesterday - I was here to celebrate." Winters was a little embarrassed.

"I didn't play yesterday, but I played two games yesterday. I still have training today. After all, at four o'clock in the afternoon, I still--I still have to sleep in." Slaer was stunned for a moment, realizing that he almost spilled the beans.

"Oh... I wish you a happy training. If you meet Aurora, tell her and I'll be there soon." Winters said immediately

"Of course" Slyer drank all the coffee and ran out without looking back.

Winters arrived at the training ground and saw Aurora sitting on the bench, somewhat listless.

"If you feel bad, you should rest first. Your tasks are no less than Harry's." Winters sat down.Harry had just completed an almost right-angle turn.

"I know, but I don't want to give up my Quidditch dream, and...and I heard that Elena also likes to play Quidditch," Aurora said speciously.

"I also like Quidditch, but it's useless. My broomstick flying movements are extremely stiff. Not to mention those difficult movements, even simple movements like turning have to be ordered by me personally." Winters had already stood up. Standing up, Harry's flying movements can be said to be dazzling.

"You are very generous - her family can hire the best coach to teach her Quidditch." Aurora was also a little excited after seeing Harry's wonderful flight trajectory. She was already eager to try it.

"You are always anxious where you shouldn't be - ask the best coach to explain that Elena is not particularly good at Quidditch. Look at Harry. His coach is Wood. Didn't he still win several championships?" Winters simply does not believe that there is an omnipotent person in this world.

"What you said does make sense." Aurora's expression was no longer stiff.At this time Wood blew the whistle.

"Very good, let's continue at 2:30 noon. Aurora, you can arrive at 4 o'clock. I found that you are not very good at accelerating, but your flexibility is more than enough," Wood said cheerfully.

"Hmm... That's it... Of course." Aurora froze for a moment, then quickly pressed Winters down with her hands and eyes.

"We have to gather at 4 o'clock this afternoon, have you forgotten?" Winters whispered after Wood and the others walked away.

"You said you would give me one-on-one lessons," Aurora said dissatisfied.

"Of course I remember, but what time did you finish training? Of course I will try my best to teach you, won't you rest?" Based on past situations, Winters did not believe that Wood could let Aurora go before 9 o'clock.If you train 10 hours a day, do you still have the energy to do other things?

"It's none of your business. If I'm too tired, I'll ask for leave." Aurora's attitude was very firm, and Winters couldn't say anything else.

"Okay...I've convinced you...just don't show off," Winters said helplessly.

In the afternoon, according to Hermione, Aurora returned to her dormitory and fell asleep, and was even more tired when she got up.Winters' heart pounded as he listened to Hermione's description.In order to prevent Aurora from having an accident, he asked Hermione to tell Harry to keep an eye on Aurora.

"I will," Hermione said simply.Winters looked at the clock hanging in the auditorium and saw that it was already 3:50. He was about to leave.When he arrived at the library, he found that Elena, Slyer, and Elsa were already there.

"Where's Aurora?" Elsa put down the book in her hand.

"She really can't get away, I'll give her extra lessons," Winters said simply.

"Then let's go first. The Room of Requirement is also called the Room of Coming and Going. It will take some time." Slyer put his books in his bag.

"The Room of Requirement comes and goes, and one can enter it only when one really needs it. When it does appear, it is always furnished to suit the needs of the seeker. This room is located on the eighth floor of the castle. Opposite the tapestry of Ba. When the user concentrates on the desired site and walks through that section of wall three times, a very smooth door will appear on the wall, allowing access to the place - provided all goes well" they go On the way, Elsa gave a brief introduction to this magical room.

"Yes, this is it." Slyer saw the strange strokes, a tapestry of a giant monster over 7 meters tall chasing a wizard with a goatee.Then he walked through the opposite wall three times without saying a word. With a slight sound, like the sound of bricks rubbing against each other, a very smooth door appeared in front of them.

"We succeeded" Elsa said happily.

After they entered, they found that the place had been arranged like a duel practice.

"Next, it's up to you." Elena patted Winters on the shoulder.

"Well... Okay... Let me first explain some key points of the duel - I mean the key points in my opinion." Winters felt that this scene was too ridiculous.He took a deep breath, calmed down and continued:

"I think you also saw the duel between Irina and I yesterday. Transformation is very useful, of course... Your transformation may not be able to do that level. But it doesn't mean that if we When in danger, you are helpless - preemptive strike is also a tactic. The principle is to use the most powerful spell among the spells you are proficient in - do you understand?" Winters added without thinking.

"I understand" Elsa and Slyer said in unison, and then they looked at each other.

"Well...then...someone please explain - because I don't think I really made it clear" Winters was now sure that he was not a good teacher.

"Since we want to strike first, we need to gain the initiative. Therefore, using powerful spells is the guarantee for gaining the initiative," Elsa said tactfully.

"Moreover, powerful spells can prevent accidents to a certain extent. They can resist the terrible black magic of those dark wizards, instead of being bounced back directly," Slaer added.

"Then... you two are going to give a demonstration? Slyer, you use the disarming spell. Elsa, you use the shattering spell - Slyer, don't worry I will give you the most powerful protection spell." Winters immediately added the second half.

"Oh...of course" Slaer couldn't help but frowned.

"Whirlpool Shield" Winters used practical actions to dispel Slyer's doubts.A translucent protective layer with many whirlpools looming on the surface appeared around Slyer.Winters then made the shield appear around Elsa again.

"Are you ready?" Winters confirmed that everything was safe.Still a little panicked, Elena had already taken out her wand, ready to prevent accidents from happening.After both Slyer and Elsa nodded——

"Then... let's start" Winters shouted without confidence.

"Smashed to pieces!"

"Except your weapons!"

Slyer's red light touched Elsa's blue light, and then Slyer's disarming spell bounced back, followed closely by Elsa's blue-lighting spell.The protective shield that the two magic spells cast on Slaer's body was like rainwater entering the sea, without any movement.

"Stop - yes, that's it. That's why we need to master those powerful spells, because they are really useful." Winters' heart was beating wildly.He paused and continued:

"But I just discovered that Elsa is still not very proficient in the crushing spell, but Slyer is very skilled in the disarming spell. So let's practice the crushing spell today - what do you think?" Winters felt My mouth no longer obeys my command.What surprised him even more was that Elsa and Slyer immediately obeyed.

"The movements must be crisp and neat, without hesitation. This spell requires you to show strong aggression," Winters corrected from the side.Elena held her head and looked at him.

"Shattered to pieces!" Slaer shouted sharply, and a blue-light spell with electric current hit the wooden man as the target.This unlucky wooden man was blown to pieces in an instant, and its flying fragments were still smoking.

Elsa was not to be outdone. Her crushing spell left a scorched black mark before it hit the target.It was a trace of her spell.

"Elena, you are quite content," Elsa said dissatisfied.

"I'm recharging my energy." Elena seemed very relaxed.

"Recharge your batteries? Wait... you want to fight Winters again?" Slaer said in surprise.

"What do you think? I hope you're ready. It's just 5 o'clock. Let's just do another demonstration." Elena looked at Winters.

"Why wasn't I ready?" Winters took out his wand.

"Slaer, hurry up and find a place to sit down. I can't wait for the duel between the two of them," Elsa said excitedly.

"Why do you like to duel with me?" Winters asked quietly.

"Slytherin refuses to be mediocre. Duel with someone who is too weak will lower my level." Elena whispered, her tone full of arrogance.

Just like the previous times, the moment the golden thread disappeared, the entire training ground was illuminated by colorful magic spells.Winters' spells are powerful and ever-changing, causing storms wherever they pass.

Although Elena's spell is not as powerful and versatile as Winters' spell, Elena's trackless spell coupled with her silent spelling allows her to do it with ease.

The two sides come and go, and the outcome is difficult to determine.After several rounds of tug-of-war——

"It's past 7 o'clock now, aren't you two hungry?" Slaer shouted.

"It's a draw... If you think you win, then you win. I have no objection... Let's do this for today, I still have to deliver food to Aurora," Winters said, wiping his sweat. Out of breath.

"I don't think I won. Who do you think I am?" Elena's forehead was covered with sweat.

"If you're going to deliver food to your sister, you'd better hurry up. Even though it's unlimited, the tomato steak is what everyone is paying attention to," Slaer said.

"Will it still be this time tomorrow?" Elsa asked.

"If there's nothing unexpected - of course" Elena conjured up a towel and wiped her head.

After determining the time for the next gathering, Winters ran out quickly. After all, you can eat less tomato steak, but you can't live without blueberry pie.
