Harry Potter: A Certain Ancient Rune Professor of Hogwarts (TL)-Chapter 94
Felix breathed a sigh of relief in his mind, at last, one success.
Coming up to the stage, praising, adding points, a set of processes went down, Felix felt that even if there is only one successful example, the class is considered a success.
But soon, a second, third, and fourth young wizard stepped forward to show the professor their own Disarming Charm.
“Very good!” Felix complimented against his will as he watched a seventh-year male wizard cast a very slim charm.
Felix thought to himself: they need encouragement, they need encouragement …
Snape slowly paced over and said in a sarcastic tone, “They were able to succeed because they were exposed to similar spell casting techniques and theories in other classes. In fact, I never expected any student below the fifth-year level to grasp the spell in this class.”
“We’ll see, Professor.”
Snape crooked his lips and said, “Class is over in a quarter-hour …”
Just then, a Disarming Charm caught the attention of the two.
“That’s … Hufflepuff, who is it?” Felix turned around, the four people who had managed to get in front of him, there was no Hufflepuff’s little wizard yet, which made him unable to even think about treating them all equally.
The little wizards from Hufflepuff House automatically parted a path, and they gleefully shouted a name in unison, “Cedric! Cedric! Cedric!”
A tall, thin male wizard stepped forward, his face slightly pale, handsome, and wearing a Hufflepuff House robe.
“Diggory, please come to the stage, and let’s applaud the first fourth year to learn the Disarming Charm! Hufflepuff plus twenty points.” Felix recognized the face – Cedric Diggory, the top of the fourth year rank.
Katie Bell, next to Hermione, stood on tiptoe, her eyes constantly following his figure.
“You know him?” Hermione asked.
“Of course! He’s the Seeker of the Hufflepuff team, and Wood thinks highly of him as having a chance to take over the position of captain next year. And don’t you think he’s good-looking?” Katie Bell said.
” Is he?” Hermione glanced at him.
Ron whispered quietly into Harry’s ear, “So, he’s your rival?”
Harry nodded, a little frustrated as he looked at the red sparks on his wand.
“That guy is really popular,” Ron said with some envy as he looked in the direction of Hufflepuff House, the young wizards hopping up and down and applauding enthusiastically.
On the gilded stage, Diggory stood next to Felix, who found him surprisingly only one head shorter than himself, standing nearly five feet six inches tall.
“Diggory, you haven’t learned the Disarming Charm before, right?”
“Yes, Professor Hap.”
“Tell me, how did you master this spell?” Felix asked encouragingly.
“Professor, every few minutes I practiced, I looked up my issues with the notes on top of the parchment. The one mentioned above about the spellcasting mindset helped me a lot.” 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖
“Is that the part about confidence?” Felix asked.
“No, it’s the phrase ‘aim to disarm, not to harm’,” Cedric said.
Felix got it, “Understanding the spell intent correctly is very important for us to practice magic spells. At least in the early stages of learning magic, we are bound to mobilize an abundance of emotional power.”
The rest of the day passed with both Felix and Snape working, but only seven young wizards had learned the Disarming Charm until five minutes before the end of the class.
The young wizards below the fourth year don’t bother mentioning them, after all, they still have various shortcomings, and it is difficult to make a leap forward in just two hours. But those young wizards who are close to graduation in the sixth or seventh year are also performing very mediocre.
Most of them, merely let the tip of their wands shoot out a cluster of red sparks.
And this, even some excellent young wizards of lower grades could do.
Felix secretly jotted down a list of names: The Twins, Cho Chang, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Alicia Spinnet, Draco Malfoy, Eddie Carmichael, Anthony Goldstein, Padma Patil, and Hannah Abbott.
These individuals were young wizards in the second to fourth years, yet they showed extraordinary magical gifts and were the best of the different houses.
In the last five minutes, Felix paused the session and regrouped the young wizards.
He waved his wand, causing the ceiling of the great hall to return to its original state and the milky white light to turn into stars. Many little wizards felt in a daze that they seemed to have experienced a real dream.
“At the end of the dueling session, I need to remind you-” Felix swept his gaze over, seeming to see each one of them.
“Time in class is always limited, you must devote more energy to practicing your magic spells, don’t complain about your lack of effort once when you are in danger.”
Felix waved his wand and from the suitcase in the corner once again flew out hundreds of materials, each made up of four sheets of parchment glued together. f𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.co𝓶
Harry opened the information in front of him, and it was written in dense handwriting.
“-This is the details of the ′Disarming Charm′, including various casting techniques and dismantling the objectives. You can follow the list of entries in class and compare them one by one, and if you come across any parts that are really difficult to understand, you can seek help from your professors or senior students.”
“There are also some tables in here that are very informative for you to judge your level of spell casting, and I need you to return them to me before the next class.” Felix blinked his eyes and stated the key points of his concern.
With Felix’s character, of course, he had to collect some research data while teaching.
Certain data – such as how ‘a certain’ little wizard learned the Disarming Charm – is not really important, as it was not typical in nature. But when the number of little wizards expanded to a hundred or a thousand times, with a large enough sample, the information that the data could give back is highly appealing to him.
“Professor, is it still necessary to complete this for those who have already learned the Disarming Charm?” A seventh-year male wizard asked Reluctantly.
“Learned?” Felix made a puzzled expression.
“Yes, I have learned the Disarming Charm, take a look – Expelliarmus!” He waved his wand, and a slim red light flew out from the tip.
Felix and the young wizards watched as the red light flew over a distance of about ten meters and slowly disappeared in midair.
The little wizard looked at him rather smugly.
Felix pondered for two seconds, since the lesson is over, there is nothing wrong with him hitting the student egos appropriately, right?
So he looked back and said calmly, “I am going to save this part for the next class, but since I have this opportunity-”
He waved his arm and his wand stabbed forward like a sharp sword, and a wrist-thick magic spell shot out, spanning half of the Great Hall and hitting the castle wall straight on.
