HP Polar Night

Chapter 19 Christmas Presents

On Christmas Eve, Agares signed on the retention list.This move seems to have annoyed Draco. He had always thought that Agares would go back to Malfoy Manor with him for Christmas. Those families who go to school.

If Agares wasn't there, Draco thought he would be bored to death.

In order to express his anger, Draco didn't speak to Agares all week, and whenever Agares said anything to him, he would always hum in reply.

This phenomenon lasted until Draco knew that Harry Potter would stay in school, and it directly deteriorated to the point where he couldn't even look at Agares.He felt that Agares must have betrayed him, so he chose to stay in school with Porter.

Agares was a little helpless.

When the Christmas holidays began, Draco and the Slytherins left school by express train.

Hogwarts suddenly became empty.

With no one around to disturb him, Agares got more free time, and he spent most of his time in the dormitory, doing his little research.Every night, he would go to the library and enter the restricted area through that small room.Although Filch and his cat patrolled the castle every night, Agares was never caught.

The time has come unhurriedly to Christmas.

Early this morning, when Agares opened his eyes, he found a pile of presents at the foot of the bed.The owls in the dormitory cannot fly in. These gifts should be delivered by the house elves.

Agares has friends in all four colleges, and he is very popular, and some friends of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons who met at Malfoy Manor last year also sent gifts.It would take him a whole morning just to remove the pile of presents that looked like hills.

He picked a few out of them and opened them up, and the Malfoys gave him a copy of Medieval Dark Arts and the Influence of Wizarding Powers, which must have been one of the books they kept hidden at home.Although Draco was still in a cold war with him, he still didn't drop a Christmas gift. He sent a bottle of Felicia, which was said to be a gift he received on his 9th birthday.Eddie gave him a brooch with a curse on it, and bet him whether he could undo the curse in one vacation time.There were others, all of whom gave various gifts, none of which were the same.

The gift from Agares had been mailed out as early as last night. He requisitioned almost half of the Hogwarts public owls in the owl hut. After all, there were a lot of people who wanted to give gifts.

When it was almost time, he changed into his robes and left the Slytherin dormitory for dinner in the Great Hall.

Only 3 people in Slytherin chose to stay in school, except for Agares, the other two were senior students.

There are not many students staying at Hogwarts. In the auditorium, there is only one long table with food on it. Tall Christmas trees are around. The walls are covered with holly and mistletoe festoons, and snowflakes are falling from the ceiling. , melted and evaporated in mid-air.

Agares saw Harry and the boys of the Weasley family at the dining table. They were unpacking wizard color bags and firecrackers, and there was a huge salute in the auditorium.

"Agares, here!" Harry saw him at a glance, and waved him happily to go over.

Agares noticed that when Harry did this, several unexplained glances were immediately cast from the professor's chair.Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor Snape, and the head of Gryffindor, Professor McGonagall.

This was the first time Harry had communicated with him in public, especially in the presence of professors.

He walked over to sit next to Harry as if nothing had happened, and he reserved a seat for him, next to the Weasley twins. "Merry Christmas, everyone."

"Merry Christmas!" Several people responded to him.

"The Great Demon King Agares."

"Send thesis materials during the holidays."

"You may have misunderstood Christmas presents."

The twins had great dissatisfaction with the gift from Agares they received in the morning, and felt that the thesis materials could not be called gifts compared to the Hogwarts toilet seat.

Agares said mysteriously: "If you had read carefully, you wouldn't have said that."

The twins look at each other.

"Could it be that,"

"Is there a secret in there?"

"You have to find out by yourself, I can't say." Agares shrugged.When he had said that, the twins leaned aside, and they whispered to each other.Finally, he came to a conclusion and decided to study the things Agares sent at night.There must be something very interesting in there.

Agares gave Harry a book, a blank book.He obviously didn't understand how to read this book, so he took this opportunity to ask quickly.Maybe some spell?Or roast it over a fire?

After listening to a bunch of his guesses, Agares laughed out loud: "No, no, Harry, that book is one of my experiments, as long as you write the questions you want to ask on the title page, this book will be published." The content related to the problem will automatically emerge. But this is still in its infancy, and I only have about two hundred books of various types. You can try it out. If there is any problem, you can give me feedback when the time comes. There is still room for further improvement.”

Harry was stunned after hearing the explanation. "Agares, your experimental product is too advanced!"

The Weasley twins on the side also rushed to ask: "Does our thesis material also have this function? Does it mean that you don't need to read a bunch of books when you write a thesis in the future, just write on it, and the answer will come out?"

"It's a pity that I only made two copies. One was given to Harry, and the other is with Draco. After I improve it, I will consider mass production." Agares said mercilessly.

The twins were heartbroken.Several young wizards who were watching stared at Agares with bright eyes, full of longing.Books that can automatically find answers, this is simply the nemesis of papers!

Ron nudged Harry silently and gave him a knowing look.

Dude, future papers are up to you.

At this moment, there was a loud noise from the teacher's bench. It turned out that Principal Dumbledore pulled a firecracker, and a small firecracker jumped out of it, causing a series of explosions.

When everyone was attracted by the principal, Agares looked at his dean, Professor Snape.

A Hogwarts owl flew in clutching the gift box, and threw the box in front of Professor Snape.

Professor Feliway next to him saw it and asked, "Severus, who sent it? It's a bit late."

Professor Snape looked at the box, only his name was written on it, not his signature. "Probably some boring person." He didn't seem to be interested in the box, and the action of opening it was very rough.

But suddenly, he froze there.In less than a second, his face suddenly turned white, and his whole body was shaking.

Before Professor Feliway was about to say anything, he slammed the box shut, stood up, and left the auditorium straight away.

Agares then looked back.

Harry and Ron also noticed Professor Snape's situation, and they exchanged a tacit look.Ron suppressed his voice and whispered: "Look, Snape, he didn't know what he received, and his face changed." Harry replied with the same volume: "I don't know if it has anything to do with what we are investigating. "

Pretending he didn't hear anything, Agares tapped the glass with his wand and replaced the pumpkin juice with raspberry juice.

What did you receive?

In fact, nothing, just a handful of lilies Bale.

He turned the cup in his hand, and the bright red juice flowed in the cup like blood.He drank the juice, drowning the sneer on the corner of his lips between the cups.

After enjoying the Christmas dinner, Agares bid farewell to other people at the table and prepared to go to the library to spend time.He only completed the first ten pages of his conjecture, and later there are other topics such as analysis of magic elements and advanced elemental law systems, how to improve magic spells into wandless magic, the difference between the meditation methods required for reciting magic and silent spells, and how wizards use magic. Magical creatures gain biological gifts... and so on.The further back, the more profound the magic knowledge involved in his conjecture.

At present, it has taken him nearly two months to study the channeling and precise amplification of magic wands. During this period, he had to find time to make a magic book because of various information.That's the one for Harry and Draco.The progress of the research has been stretched again.

The last time he saw a book about wand making in the forbidden section, he decided to check it out tonight.

"Maximum Power with Minimal Power—On the Importance of the Wand" by Fitzgerald Ollivander.

It is mentioned in the book: the composition of the magic wand is composed of a powerful magic wand core (from magic creatures, generally choose the parts of dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, thestrals, snakes and other creatures, kill the creatures, and thus get the most magic power deep parts), the body of the staff must be made of materials that complement the core of the staff, most of which come from trees or plants, but a few come from animals, and it was very popular to use wizard bones for a while.

Each material and wand core has its own bias, the fusion of two black magic attributes, the greater the bonus to black magic, and the fusion of two white magic attributes, it is often impossible to use black magic.

The book lists several wand combinations that are "powerful and difficult to control", such as the combination of blackthorn wood and basilisk nerve, the combination of ebony and dragon heart tendon, the death curse issued by the laurel wand is very powerful, and the yew wood is suitable The darkest of wizards, and elderberry is the most powerful of all wand materials.

The combination of ebony and dragon heart tendon, isn't this his wand.

Agares looked at the wand in his hand.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.

Agares waved his wand, turning off the fluorescent lights.He narrowed his eyes and looked in front of the bookshelf.Who broke in?It didn't even trigger the alert he set.

A lamp floats in mid-air, slowly drifting in through the entrance, as if it is being carried by an invisible ghost.But Agares knew that this was impossible. All the ghosts in Hogwarts could see their bodies, and the invisible ghosts almost disappeared into the world.And these two kinds of ghosts are rarely able to wander around the forbidden book area in the middle of the night with a lamp.

The lamp stopped in front of the bookshelf, and a hand appeared out of thin air, rummaging through the bookshelf.

Invisibility cloak?Agares reacted.

"God, what are these books, they don't even have titles." From that position, there was a very low murmur.

Agares raised an eyebrow.The voice, Harry Potter?

"Harry?"

With a bang, the lamp the other party was carrying fell to the ground by mistake.Agares threw a "quiet" in the past, and the sound disappeared immediately.

He walked over and appeared in front of the bookshelf.Seeing Agareth's face, Harry, who was terrified, finally revealed his head from the invisibility cloak. "Hey, Agares, why are you here?"

"Hmm, that's exactly the question I wanted to ask you." Agares folded his hands and leaned on the bookshelf.

Harry picked up the lamp on the ground and walked towards Agares. "I'm going to the library to do some research."

"Invisibility Cloak?" Agares asked.

"I received a Christmas present today, which is said to be left to me by my father." Harry took off the invisibility cloak, and only then did the rest of his body appear in front of his eyes.

Before Agares and Harry could say anything else, Filch's voice came from outside the library. "Who is wandering around in the forbidden book area?!" His footsteps hurried over.
