[hp] Noyce's Magical Journey

It was the first time that Noyce was detained after school, and he couldn't figure out the reason all the way. Finally, he came to the office of the herbal medicine professor with a face full of apprehension.Unexpectedly, Sprout received him with a smile, which relieved Noyce who thought Liberty had committed something.

Noyce sat on the sofa and took a sip of the scented tea made by Professor Sprout, gradually relaxing.After chatting for a while, Professor Sprout got straight to the point: "I heard from Cedric recently that you are more interested in alchemy and spells, is that true?"

Noyce didn't know why Cedric told the dean about this, but he must have a reason.Therefore, Noyce was unambiguous and nodded without hesitation.He also talked about some books he had borrowed from the library recently. Although they were not profound works, Noyce thought they were very good.

Professor Sprout listened attentively, and nodded slowly after Noyce had almost said something.

"Among our Hufflepuff freshmen, you are the smartest, and you are also very hardworking. Not to mention, at least you have always performed very well in terms of courses." Professor Sprout said a few words After speaking, Noyce felt that his ears were so hot.After all, he has lived for hundreds of years, how could he play like a child every day, he must work hard, but today he was praised for this, and Noyce felt a little embarrassed.

But this time Professor Sprout specially called him here, certainly not just to praise him.Therefore, Professor Sprout talked about the spells and alchemy that Noyce was studying recently.

"Ancient spells, that is, runes, are elective courses that only start in the third grade. But to be honest, not many people take this course every year. On the one hand, it has something to do with the difficulty of the course-many take this course Even if students work hard at ordinary times, their grades in the final exam are often not satisfactory; on the other hand, this course is not as practical as other subjects, unless they specialize in this aspect in the future, it is really thankless." Si Pu While sipping the tea in the cup, Professor Lauter sighed as if thinking of something.

"In recent years, very few Hufflepuff freshmen have chosen this course. Since you are interested in this course, I hope you can continue; The professor has discussed that you can take the magic literature course this semester, and follow along first. If you like it and can follow along, just follow along, and the grades will be recorded on the third-grade report card; If you don’t like it, you can give up this subject temporarily, and your grades will not be recorded.” Professor Sprout saw Noyce’s shining eyes, and couldn’t help laughing: “But the premise is to ensure that other subjects The grades cannot be dropped, if it affects the study of other courses, I will cancel your privilege."

Noyce did not believe that he would affect his grades in other subjects because of this course, but he still made a serious promise to Professor Sprout.And Sprout also knows that he has this ability, I believe he will not neglect one thing and lose another. "This year you will follow the magic literature first. If possible, I will find a way to apply for the alchemy course for you. Although alchemy is a course that can only be taken in the seventh grade, it does not require much foundation in other subjects. You You can try it too."

Noyce's eyes almost narrowed when he heard this.He hurriedly thanked his dean, but Professor Sprout just waved his hand indifferently: "It's nothing, since you are willing to learn, I will naturally help you." Noyce said Unable to accept this with peace of mind, he still thanked him earnestly, and then asked Professor Sprout to send him out for dinner.

It is much more convenient for someone willing to teach him than for Noyce to figure it out by himself. Noyce is delighted with Professor Sprout's support, but another person who needs to be thanked is Cedric.Dinner was almost over when Noyce went to the auditorium, and he took the time to get himself an apple pie and a glass of milk, and a sandwich.

Noyce looked around the lounge and did not see Cedric. He calculated the time and thought that Cedric might be training on the Quidditch field at this time.After hesitating for a while, he took his own broom and went to the field, hugging Miss Cat, whom he knew nothing about.

Noyce found Cedric who was training on the court. At this time, a group of people were flying around the court. He was sitting on a broom with Amicia in his arms and was flying slowly at low altitude.Miss Cat lay in his arms coldly, she had adapted to this height very well, and enjoyed the scenery below very much.

As soon as the Quidditch training was over, Noyce walked slowly to Cedric's side.It was getting late at this time, and everyone went to the lounge one after another.Noyce and Cedric walked last, he hesitated for a moment, always felt that expressing his gratitude in words was too pale.Just taking advantage of no one around, he took the initiative to give Cedric a hug.

Cedric didn't say anything about it. He looked at Noyce's head, which was still below his chest, and ruthlessly ruffled his hair.After Noyce expressed his thanks, he followed Cedric to the library—he was going to prepare all the textbooks of magic literature, as well as the reference books he needed.

After that, the pace of life suddenly became faster: Noyce only had one more rune class in his schedule, but he had to spend more time studying it every day.Not only did he have to catch up with the progress of the previous lectures, but he also had to learn more content by himself - the professor of magic literature gave him permission to take the senior exams in advance, as long as his knowledge level was sufficient.

For this reason, Noyce spent more time on these lessons, and he had to go back to his room very late every day to rest—he no longer sleeps except for practicing every day, so he has more time for him to study A lot of it.But he avoided Cedric every time, and he would definitely be angry if he let him know that he took a rest very late every day.

But no matter how busy he is, he still takes time to go for a walk by the Black Lake every morning, and takes Miss Amicia out for a walk in the evening.He would rather read a book for a while at night than meet Cedric.

And the plot also gradually progresses with the passage of time.After dinner on Halloween, Sirius Black attacked the portrait in Gryffindor Tower.Noyce and the others had just returned to the lounge, and were also called out by the dean.

The prefects were asked to stand guard at the entrance of the auditorium. Noyce found a sleeping bag and huddled in a corner with several other roommates and fell asleep.Before going to sleep, he stared at Cedric's back for a while, but his mind was thinking of Miss Cat who stayed in the Hufflepuff lounge - he didn't know that she had come into contact with so many pets in Hogwarts , will you know a big black dog named Blake.

In a few days, there will be the Quidditch match between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor. Although Noyce sincerely hopes that Cedric will win, the Savior is indeed a rare Seeker.So he just cheered Cedric with all his strength... He vaguely remembered what would happen in this match, but he couldn't remember clearly.

Cedric was quite open about it. To be honest, Hufflepuff's Quidditch team was usually at the bottom of the four houses, and the overall level was indeed inferior to others, so it didn't matter if they lost.

When the game was approaching, the weather had been very bad, with heavy thunderstorms and howling winds. Noyce also knew that he would not be unable to cope with the weather, but he still told him to pay attention to safety before going to the auditorium.

At the beginning of the game, Noyce had been staring at Cedric closely, and he was still a little nervous-this was the first time he had watched Cedric play. Last year, the game was not able to proceed as scheduled due to the attack of the basilisk.

Speaking of the basilisk - Noyce suddenly looked to the sidelines. Although the weather prevented him from seeing clearly, it was certain that something was moving there.Noyce suddenly realized what would happen later, and no longer worried about it, but there might be something wrong with the savior-but this was not what he was worried about.

Sure enough, at least a hundred dementors appeared on the field. They were attracted by the emotions of the living, and couldn't restrain their instincts and began to absorb the happiness around them.Everyone was stunned by this group of guys, and even forgot to cheer for the players.

Noyce was not afraid of them, but fortunately Amicia didn't follow.Originally, Miss Cat could not be absent from such an important occasion, but Noyce felt that the weather outside was really not good, and if she accidentally got wet on her fur, she would suffer from illness—looking at it now, if Miss Cat and Here we come, seeing so many dementors again, her screams might knock down the roof of the auditorium.

Hufflepuff won the match this time.Although Cedric caught the Snitch in the end, he always felt that it was an invincible victory-after all, Harry Potter was stunned by the dementor and even fell off.

Noyce didn't care if this was an invincible victory, anyway, Cedric's victory was excellent.Cedric didn't bother with this matter anymore, he knew that Hufflepuff's victory this time was a fluke - he would not have such good luck next time, so he had stricter requirements for the usual Quidditch training.

However, no matter how the Quidditch training went, Noyce had to return to the study of runes.It should be said that as one of the nightmare subjects at Hogwarts, Rune really deserves its name.Whether it's all kinds of strange symbols, writing methods or expressing meanings, rune is like another language that makes people have no clue.

And what Noyce has to do is not only to know the runes, but also to learn to write and engrave them on objects-this is not just as simple as copying.Even the professor of magic literature said that if he can independently make an item with magic writing and guarantee its function, then he will be considered as a graduate from this course.
