Study Days at Hogwarts

 Chapter 1477 Albert’s Trick

 Babajid is missing!

Some people said he was hiding, others said he was dead, and some even said he was captured by a mysterious man.

  Anyway, the president of the International Federation of Wizards suddenly disappeared.

The current situation in the European wizarding community is not good. According to inaccurate rumors, several members of Congress and their families have died suddenly at home. Many wizards suspect that it was Voldemort's handiwork, but no Dark Mark was found around them.

So much so that some people suspected that this incident was revenge from bounty hunters. However, the group of bounty hunters hired by them had already dispersed and left this world of right and wrong after determining that they could not get the rewards they wanted. There are very few bounty hunters willing to stay in Europe.

 No one is a fool. They know very well that after the assassination fails, they will definitely be retaliated by Voldemort.

If you don’t run away now, will it be possible to stay and wait for death?

 Placing hope on the enemy is something only a fool would do.

Albert put down the newspaper in his hand and sighed softly: "Those guys are really a bunch of trash!"

Although he did not expect the International Federation of Wizards to withstand Voldemort's pressure from the beginning, he did not expect it to collapse at the first touch.

 As for the disappearance of President Babajide, it actually has something to do with Albert.

 He once told Babajide that Voldemort would definitely come to take revenge on the International Federation of Wizards.

 So, the president, who was unwilling to continue taking the blame, chose to abandon his responsibilities and go into hiding to prevent Voldemort from harming his family.

Whoever wants to be the president of the International Federation of Wizards can take over. Anyway, Babajid no longer intends to continue to take the blame.

 If you should give up, you should give up immediately.

 “Is the situation outside very bad?”

Although Hermione couldn't understand the foreign language in the newspaper, it was not difficult to guess the reason from the changes in Albert's words and expressions.

"The International Federation of Wizards is...worse than I expected. They almost gave up resistance and were easily defeated by the mysterious man." Albert closed the newspaper and looked up at the three people who were doing routine exercises: "You guys Gotta work harder.”

"I would like to, but it is really not easy to solve the curse." Ron couldn't help but ask, "Why did they just give up the resistance? Aren't they worried that their Ministry of Magic will be controlled by a mysterious person?"

 They really are not worried.

 The mysterious man was able to control the British Ministry of Magic, mostly with the help of Death Eaters.

In foreign countries other than Britain, the mysterious man does not have enough supporters. Even if he uses the Imperius Curse to forcibly control people in other countries, it will be difficult to control the Ministry of Magic as easily as in Britain.

It is precisely for this reason that Voldemort chose to stay in England instead of spreading his tentacles all over the world like the previous Dark Lord Grindelwald and causing public outrage.

This is also the smartest thing about the mysterious man. If they are not forced to do so, other countries would not want to interfere in Britain's messy affairs at all.

Harry, Hermione and Ron thought of one thing. Moody once thought that the International Federation of Wizards and Voldemort were directly confronting each other, and it was related to Albert in front of them.

It seems that this should be true.

“You really need to master the Fire Spell. Don’t you have an easier way?”

Harry doesn’t mind continuing to delay for a while, but the current deterioration of the situation is obviously not optimistic.

"This is the simplest and most convenient way." Albert looked at the three Harrys and said, "Otherwise, why do you think I would waste my time insisting that you must master this **** black magic."

 The three of them looked at each other and fell silent.

“How about letting Hermione try it?” Ron suggested.

"Hermione's magic power is not very strong, and I don't think she has the courage to use such dangerous magic." Albert glanced at Hermione and directly denied Ron's idea: "She is more rational than you. , which means that she will not take this risk easily, and you also need someone who can control the devil's flame in time, which can prevent you from burning yourself to death."

 “Then we can only continue to practice.”

 The three of them are not in high spirits, but there is nothing they can do about it. Continuous failures can indeed easily damage people's confidence.

“I’ve thought of a way that might help you get the hang of it faster, although it may involve a bit of risk.”

　　Seemingly aware of the depressed atmosphere at the scene, Albert said suddenly. "any solution."

"use this."

 While talking, Albert took out a medicine bottle from his pocket, which contained golden medicines.

 “Are you going to let us practice using Felixir?”

The expressions on the faces of the three people were a bit stunned, and they really couldn't follow Albert's train of thought.

“This is a minimum guarantee to ensure that you can do it when taking Felixir.” Albert explained.

"Is it not?"

Ron was even more confused. Since they had the help of the elixir, they didn't need to spend a lot of time training to break the **** curse. As long as they used the elixir during their actions, everything would be solved.

"of course not."

  “It’s not something.”

"Fortune Elixir is never a lucky potion, but a, um, stimulant. It can stimulate various abilities of the user's body in a short period of time." Albert glanced at Ron and felt that it was still necessary to explain. For a moment, lest they have any illusions about the elixir.

"For example, your punching power is ten in total, but your actual punching power is only three. After taking the Felixir, you can exert at least 80 to 90% of your power, and this power is It's something you already have, it's not something that was born out of thin air after taking the Felixir."

Albert reminded: "If you haven't learned the Fire Curse, nor how to resolve the curse, nor have you undergone strict training, then how can you be able to skillfully use the Fire Curse when taking the Spiritual Elixir?"

“So, are we getting started now?” Hermione had a particularly strange expression.

 “You come first, Harry.”

Harry took the elixir handed over by Albert and threw it directly into his mouth. After feeling the magical changes brought by the elixir to himself, he actively tried to summon the Fire Spell.

Sure enough, as Albert said, the overcontrol of the Fire Curse was smoother than Harry expected.

 At least the demonic flame in front of him is no longer as uncontrollable as before, but instead resembles a docile sheep.

This scene left Hermione and Ron stunned.

"Very good. In the remaining time, I hope you will try to master it and find the secret to controlling the devil's flame before the elixir completely expires."

 Following the guidance of his intuition, Harry continued to try to master the Devil's Flame.

 Albert on the side helped him through words how to master such power.

 With the help of Felixir, Harry's progress was amazing.

 After a while, he discovered that he could shape the devil's flame into other shapes and easily suppress its power.

The feeling of completely mastering the Devil's Flame is simply amazing.

“Don’t get carried away, Harry, don’t forget that you just took the Felixir, and don’t forget that the dose of Felixir you take every year needs to be strictly controlled, so don’t waste this precious time.”

Albert's voice calmed Harry down from his excitement.

  Unfortunately, the dosage of Fulingji pills is only that small, and it loses its effect in a short period of time.

Harry also soon discovered that the effects of the Felixir were fading, and the Devil's Flame, which was previously under his control, was no longer obedient.

"Calm down, think about how you did it before, and think about how it felt." Albert continued to guide, "You should have confidence in yourself and believe that you can master the Fire Spell."

 “Look, you can almost do it.”
