Chapter 180

After every student at Hogwarts had experienced Moody's completely unreasonable Defense Against the Dark Arts class, the turmoil caused by the arrival of the new professor in the school finally calmed down.

However, after two weeks of peace...

"Look at this!!" Hermione almost screamed and knocked open the door of a boy's dormitory in Gryffindor, frightening the five boys who were still huddled under the covers and hadn't woken up. stand up.

"Ah!!! What, what's the matter?" Neville let out a sharp scream.

"Hermione!! What are you doing!" Ron fell off the bed in fright, and growled at Hermione after seeing who it was.

Harry was also so frightened that he sat up, and hurriedly tried to grab the glasses on the bedside table, but he swung too hard and hit the cabinet hard, hugged his hands in pain and hissed—— the whole dormitory Time was thrown into chaos.

Hermione completely ignored the confusion of the boys and their messy pajamas, even Ron was wearing only underwear at all, and she waved a newspaper in her hand and called: "Look at this!"

When Harry finally recovered from the pain, picked up his glasses and put them on, Ron and the others had already gathered together to read the newspaper that Hermione brought over, and he hurried over to read:

"Extra! Extra! The famous heir to the Slytherin family, Ms. Sylvia Slytherin, published the book "The Source of Darkness".

"I don't think the title of this book is a good book..." Ron muttered and rubbed his eyes, trying to make his sleepy eyes full of eyeballs see clearly the small print reports under the big headlines in the newspaper.

Hermione gave Ron a hard look, grabbed Ron's school uniform that was wrinkled like pickles at the end of the bed and threw it on his head, and said angrily: "When you get dressed and your head is clearer, then open your eyes and look at it again! "

Harry didn't need to be made more awake by Hermione, he was almost scared out of his wits by Hermione's scream just now, and now he was fully awake, pushing his glasses, Harry took the newspaper from Ron's hand Read: "Miss Sylvia Slytherin's series of books were officially put on sale at the London main store of Lihen Bookstore this week. Compared with Miss Slytherin's reputation, this release can be said to be quiet. However, gold always shines. Just three days after the first release, only the [-] copies of the first edition of Lihen Bookstore’s London headquarters and Paris branch have been sold, and the order letters from all over the world are full. Sales Department of Lihen Bookstore!"

At this time, Ron finally got dressed, straightened his messy red hair with one hand, and grabbed the newspaper from Harry with the other, and continued to read: ""The Source of Darkness" is about the ancient dead spirits about the origin of black magic. The content of magic, in simple terms, has unveiled the mysterious veil of black magic for everyone. Because the content is detailed and subverts the current mainstream view of black magic, what will be seen next is about to set off a controversy in the magic world... so it is not just a A book on black magic!" Ron threw the newspaper in his hand on the bed as if throwing away something dirty.

"Senior sister's book is not simply 'a book of black magic'!!" Hermione shouted.

"But...but what's written in the newspaper is the book on black magic..." Neville whispered aside, looking at the newspaper with worried and fearful eyes.

"No! Don't you guys know? If it's just a simple black magic book, it can't be sold in Lihen Bookstore?!"

Seeing all the boys in the room looking at her with confused eyes, Hermione sighed, "The reason why books about black magic cannot be sold in Lihen Bookstore is that those kinds of books are not something that ordinary people can browse at will. There will be all kinds of terrible traps, and if there are not enough capable people to read the black magic book, it will lead to terrible consequences."

Speaking of this, Hermione grabbed the newspaper on Ron's bed and waved it violently, "But senior sister's book is different! Didn't you see the words 'unveiled the mystery of black magic for everyone'" For everyone'? Senior sister's book should be the first book that allows everyone to truly understand what kind of magic black magic is!"

Compared to Hermione's excitement, Harry and the others still didn't seem to understand what Hermione was excited about.Seeing that these boys couldn't communicate at all, Hermione angrily grabbed the newspaper that was sent directly to the dormitory by an extra account in the morning, let out an irritable growl in her throat, turned around and slammed the door, leaving a room full of confused boys them.

The crowd who couldn't understand Sylvia's feat was actually a minority at Hogwarts. When Hermione stepped into the auditorium angrily, even though the breakfast time had just started, there were not many students in the auditorium, but most of them gathered together Looking at the extra issue of the "Daily Prophet" that was the same as Hermione's, there were bursts of exclamations and comments from time to time. This scene finally calmed Hermione's inner anger.

In order not to be unable to eat breakfast for a while by the popularity of Ron and the others who don't know how to appreciate knowledge, Hermione simply walked to Ravenclaw's long table and found Qiu.

Autumn was surprised by Hermione's sudden arrival, but soon returned to her usual gentle smile, and asked Hermione to sit down and have breakfast with her and her friends.

"Good morning, Hermione." Cho greeted with a smile.

"Good morning." Fortunately, even though Qiu and Qiu are no longer best friends since the end of the first grade because of their different ideas, as a friend who can communicate easily in terms of thinking and knowledge, Hermione and Qiu are still together these years. There are contacts in academic discussions, and now it is not too abrupt for her to come to find Qiu suddenly.

"Do you subscribe to the Extra Edition of the Daily Prophet?"

"Well, I've read it." Hermione took out the crumpled extra-issue newspaper from her pocket.

"Senior Slytherin is really amazing." Qiu smiled and took some cereal.

Hermione nodded, seemingly calmly also took some food.In fact, it's not just such a book... Hermione sighed in her heart, she knew what her senior sister did during the summer vacation, the preparations for the deep hypnosis magic ceremony and the large stacks that were sorted out later recorded the dangers Scrolls of great necromancy... yet she could say nothing.

"Has anyone in Ravenclaw bought my sister's book?"

Hearing Hermione's question, Qiu smiled wryly and shook his head. A girl with blond curly hair and a little red sitting next to her came over and complained, "The first edition is only [-] copies! It is said that half of it will go to the Paris branch." It's gone, and we don't even know about the news that Miss Slytherin's book will be put on the shelves! There is no launch event, and it will be put on the shelves quietly."

"Ah, this is my friend, Marietta Ackmore, and this is..."

"I know, Gryffindor's fourth-year Hermione Granger! She's very famous! Haha!" Marietta grabbed Qiu's words very enthusiastically.

"Do you think Miss Slytherin will give you a copy directly? Don't you have a pretty good relationship with her?" Marietta asked.

"I don't know, but if it's so popular, there won't be many sisters..."

Just when Hermione and the others were discussing how to get a copy of the book that is now completely out of stock, and according to the account, orders from all over the world have already been scheduled for next year, there was a sudden rustling sound in the auditorium Quiet.

Sylvia and Camille walked into the auditorium as usual, startled by the sudden silence and the eyes turning to them.

"Senior sister!" Until Hermione broke the silence, excitedly waving the extra issue of "Daily Prophet" that had been crumpled after various waving and pulling tortures, and ran to the door of the auditorium.

After receiving the newspaper that Hermione handed over, Sylvia finally understood what happened to everyone's sudden silence.

"It turns out that this is why you plan to announce the news today?" Camille asked.

Shaking her head, Sylvia returned the extra newspaper to Hermione, and said with a wry smile, "I didn't know that my book sold well enough to be able to publish the extra news."

"What news does senior sister want to announce?" Hermione asked curiously.

"You'll find out soon..." Before Camille's voice fell, Principal Dumbledore walked into the auditorium through the side door next to the professor's chair, smiled and waved to Sylvia who was standing at the door , Following the principal's greeting, Sylvia walked over like this and stood on the steps of the professor's chair.

Seeing that Camille pushed Hermione back to sit at the long table in Gryffindor, most of the students had already arrived in the auditorium at this time, and stopped taking the food in their hands, turned their heads to look at the stage, Only then did Dumbledore speak: "Good morning everyone, I'm a bit hasty, but Miss Slytherin has some good news to tell everyone, ah, by the way, it's not about Miss Slytherin publishing a book, although that's a very Great news." After speaking, Dumbledore looked at Sylvia who was standing in front of the professor's long table, signaling that she could start.

"Good morning," Sylvia smiled at the students in the audience, "As Mr. Principal said, the news to be announced today is... After Principal Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall and the Ministry of Magic Through the joint discussion of the Department of Education, the Ministry of Magic has agreed that I will use a short period of time at Hogwarts to give lectures on ancient magic to everyone."

There was a burst of discussion in the auditorium, and everyone was excitedly discussing ancient magic with friends around them. In Sylvia's speech before, everyone briefly glimpsed a corner of the splendid ancient magic. Now they finally have a chance Have you started learning ancient magic?

Seeing that Sylvia was still standing on the stage, everyone soon became quiet again. Sylvia smiled and continued: "Because my personal plan after graduation is to stay in school to open new elective subjects, and Hogwarts The courses here have not been changed for more than 200 years, so this time, I started to prepare ahead of time. First, I obtained the permission to hold weekend lectures. The current plan is to give lectures every other weekend. Students who are interested in knowing more can come and listen.”
