Harry Potter: The Legend of Demigods

Suddenly there was a violent banging on the door and loud footsteps, and everyone in the room raised their heads. They didn't realize how much noise there had been. The people downstairs must have heard the violent collision and the roar of the troll. A moment later, Professor McGonagall burst into the room, closely followed by Snape, and Quirrell at the end. Quirrell only glanced at the troll, then let out a weak sob, clutching his chest tightly.

Snape bent down and examined the troll, although there was no need to do so. The smaller head had been blown to pieces by the curse, without any hope of survival; while the other one was even more miserable, with its chest broken open and its head cut in half, emitting a disgusting smell. Professor McGonagall looked at Anakin and others, her face was as serious as she had ever seen. Her voice was filled with cold fury.

"What the hell are you playing?" said Professor McGonagall, with cold anger in her voice. "Why don't you just stay in the dormitory? And, Mr. Anakin, why are you carrying a sword."

Snape gave Harry a quick, probing look. Harry looked at the ground. He hoped Ron would put his wand down quickly. At this time, a low voice came from the shadows.

"Please don't, Professor McGonagall - they're looking for me."

"Miss Granger!" Professor McGonagall immediately turned around and looked at the place where the voice came from in surprise, as if she didn't expect that Hermione would help Anakin and others break school rules. Hermione finally struggled to stand up, her expression looking tired.

However, before she could begin to defend herself, Haisa stepped forward and said in a calm tone: "Professor, here's what happened. We heard that Hermione was feeling a little depressed. So we decided to come before the dinner Comfort her. We were completely in the dark about the trolls until what just happened."

Hermione immediately understood what Haisa wanted to say, and she added: "Professor, I'm sorry, I feel really sad because my studies are not going well. These friends decided to come to comfort me before I encountered the troll. If they I was not found and I must be dead by now.”

Professor McGonagall nodded. Snape suddenly said: "Really, but I saw Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley at the party. They did not leave before the dinner."

"This is because we thought Hermione would be in danger, so we came to her. We wanted to leave before encountering the troll." Harry defended himself.

Professor McGonagall accepted their explanation: "Well, in that case, I still have to say that you are lucky. Not many first-year students can compete with an adult troll, let alone kill it. Each of you is Your house has earned five points. I will inform Professor Dumbledore of this. Now, Mr. Wilson, please tell me where this sword came from. Don't tell me that I got it from a Muggle. , they can’t make such a sharp sword.”

Anakin couldn't tell them where the sword came from, which would get Anakin into more trouble. Anakin had no choice but to answer in an evasive manner: "Professor McGonagall, do you remember the Room of Requirement, the room where I introduced Pettigrew. I found that it sometimes becomes a warehouse, and I found it there. After all, I Are you a Gryffindor student? It's normal to want a sword like him."

Professor McGonagall gave Anakin a slightly skeptical look, then nodded, seeming to reluctantly accept the explanation. She continued: "Very well, it seems that you came to help Hermione out of good intentions. But, next, I will take you to the principal Dumbledore, who needs to know the details of this matter."

"Wait a minute..." Professor Snape pointed at the larger troll and said suddenly. "Professor Minerva, look at this scar, what do you think this... looks like. As far as I'm concerned... it's the mark of dark magic. Mr. Anakin, I remember... ..It seems that dark magic can only be found in the forbidden book area, and you don't seem to have any professor's consent." He seemed to glare at Quirrell again, and then looked into Anakin's eyes and asked.

Professor McGonagall raised an eyebrow to express curiosity about Snape's observation, but she said nothing and continued to listen to Anakin's explanation.

Anakin remembered that eye contact was the most effective in front of Legilimency, so he quickly moved his eyes away from Snape's eyes and started Occlumency. Although this layer of defense was like paper in front of Snape, After all, it’s better than nothing. "Professor, I admit that I secretly went to the restricted area of ​​the library at night and learned black magic. However, the purpose of my going there was just because I was curious about magic and to learn more about magic."

"What's more, Anakin didn't abuse black magic. This time it was just because our attack couldn't do any effective damage to the troll. He also struggled for a long time before deciding to use it." Haisha held Ana nervously. Jin's hand, she understood that talking too much now would lead to mistakes, which would only make the situation more complicated. Her eyes glanced at Snape, acting innocently, as if it had nothing to do with her.

She concluded, "Well, now that you have explained the situation, and given your kindness in coming to comfort Hermione, I will report these situations to Headmaster Dumbledore, who will make the final decision. Anakin, I understand you curiosity, but dark magic is very dangerous. The rules of the restricted area are for security reasons. I remind you again, no matter what the situation is, do not abuse dark magic. For this incident, I will deduct 30 points from Gryffindor , I hope you won't enter the restricted area again without the professor's permission. Now, if you are not injured, it is best to return to Gryffindor Castle as soon as possible. The students are enjoying Halloween dinner in their respective houses, although I doubt whether you can still eat it Gotta get off."

The moment they left, Snape's eyes were still on Anakin, as if to warn him not to step into the restricted area again, and then he turned and left. The whole situation seemed to be easing, but Anakin knew he had to be more careful to avoid causing more suspicion and trouble.

Anakin and his friends walked out of the bathroom. Hermione looked at him, her face pale, and she said seriously: "Anakin, what's going on with your sword and that strange ability to control water?" Harry and others also looked at it curiously. he.

Suddenly, Haisha noticed Anakin's robe. She was surprised to find that although they had just fought with the troll and the entire toilet was full of water, Anakin's robe was not wet by the water. If it weren't for Anakin's There was still so much blood on Jin that they couldn't even tell that Anakin actually killed the troll with them. She pointed at Anakin's clothes and couldn't help but said: "Anakin, why are your clothes dry!"
