MTL - I Wield a Sword at Hogwarts

"Gudong, Hagrid, are you sure they are friendly?" After swallowing, John nervously approached Hagrid.

Hagrid's tall body can give people a sense of security, but only if they are outside and not in the spider's lair.

"Don't worry, these spiders are Aragog's children and will not hurt you."

Hagrid's vows always seemed unreliable to John.

Those spiders are almost drooling. You told me they won’t hurt me?

He had already grabbed the wand in his left hand. As long as a spider dared to come close, John swore that he would fling it to pieces.

At the end of the cave is a gray spider the size of a car. It is an Acromantula. Cataracts make this old spider unable to see clearly.

"Hagrid, you're here."

Aragog was very happy for his friend's arrival. He suppressed his heir who was about to move and told Hagrid about the Forbidden Forest.

"Something's coming in, and it's evil, and it's following unicorns."

Hagrid entrusted Aragog to investigate the matter of unicorns, and Aragog sent his descendants all over the Forbidden Forest.

"He is very powerful. Many of my descendants have been killed, and he is as elusive as a wandering spirit."

The Acromantula family feeds on humans. Although Aragog suppressed his descendants for Hagrid, the Acromantula is definitely not that easy to deal with.

The guy who came into the Forbidden Forest killed several Acromantulas single-handedly, and was as powerful as an Auror.

Although he met the other party, Aragog could not keep him.

Hagrid felt heavy after hearing this. It was exactly what John said. The evil guy had not given up on the unicorn.

The blood of unicorns contains a curse, but it can also prevent people with only one breath from dying.

"I know Aragog."

Hagrid said hello to Aragog and was about to leave, but at this time, the Acromantulas around him were gradually approaching.

"Aragog?" Hagrid looked at his friend in confusion.

Aragog apologized and said: "Sorry Hagrid, I asked my descendants not to hurt you, but they have no resistance to other people."

"Oops!"

After Aragog reminded him, Hagrid also realized that he had done a stupid thing by bringing John here.

"John, let's go quickly."

Lifting John up, Hagrid's huge body was like a humanoid truck.

A spider stood in front of him and was knocked away by Hagrid.

It’s rare to find someone to eat, and the spiders don’t want to give up.

Naturally, John would not be merciful. He pulled out his wand and pointed it at an approaching Acromantula to cast a spell.

"Reducto"

The white light hit the spider, instantly knocking it back and bleeding but not killing it.

"Beautiful spell." Hagrid praised him upon seeing this.

Although Hagrid is big, he is actually very agile.

Being carried by Hagrid, John saved himself the time to dodge and directly concentrated on building a fort.

The "Incendio" wand shoots flames and ignites the spider.

"Wingardium Leviosa (Wingardium Leviosa A fallen log hit the back.

Under constant bombardment, John's magic power gradually bottomed out.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, he grabbed a stone and threw it at the spider.

[Ding, the magic power has been upgraded successfully, the current magic power is level 3]

John felt a warm current gushing out of his body, and his magic power was restored.

An Acromantula the size of a small car appeared from the front. John aimed at the spider and fired a magic spell.

"Reducto"

This time the white light became even bigger. It was only the size of a satsuma orange before, but now it is a lot bigger.

The moment it came into contact with the Acromantula, the Acromantula's body was covered with cracks and then shattered into pieces.

The power more than doubled, John turned around and fired the magic spell at the chasing spider.

With the cooperation of Hagrid, John successfully escaped from the spider nest.

After coming out, Hagrid blamed himself and said: "Sorry John, I thought Aragog could control them."

Aragog was indeed controllable before, but now Aragog is too old and may not have a few more years to live.

The young spider no longer listened to him as before.

"It's okay Hagrid, but it's best not to let anyone else go there in the future."

John was lucky this time. If it had been anyone else without Hagrid's help, he would probably have become a meal.

Hagrid was also scared.

The two of them continued searching in the Forbidden Forest for a while before ending their patrol for the day.

In Hagrid's hut, John poured a large bowl of dog food for Yaya.

This big dog ran the fastest in the spider cave, and he was probably exhausted.

After saying goodbye to Hagrid, John returned to Hogwarts.

He opened the Marauder's Map and took a look. Professor Quirrell was not in the office.

[Ding, get the blessing: Night Demon]

[Night Demon: Inhabit the darkness, increase stealth and visibility, increase stealth kill damage]

After completing the one-hundred-hour night tour, John turned off the wand light, blinked twice and began to adapt to the darkness.

The originally dark corridor gradually became clearer to the eyes. Although it was not as clear as during the day, it was still possible to read in the dark.

"This is a lot more convenient."

With the Night Demon trait, John is difficult to detect even if he is walking in the corridor without using the Disembodiment Spell.

After using the Illusion Curse, he can directly achieve the effect of the invisibility cloak.

…

In the days that followed, John could often 'encounter' Quirrell.

Quirrell, who was originally not interested in teaching, could be said to be very considerate of John in private.

And he constantly hinted that John could go to him if he had any questions, and even vaguely mentioned that he had high attainments in black magic.

John pretends to be confused every time, like a nerd, but he doesn't have no ideas about black magic.

After all, black magic like Li Huo is very powerful, which is difficult to achieve in ordinary magic.

Finally, he proposed to Quirrell to learn from Li Huo, and Quirrell readily accepted it.

Although Quirrell is not very good at this curse, don't forget that he has the second generation Dark Lord as his endorsement.

Under the guidance of Quirrell on the surface, but actually under the guidance of Voldemort, John finally learned how to use fire.

But he won't try it easily. Li Huo is the most uncontrollable curse.

Once ignited, the fire cannot be extinguished.

At the same time, Quirrell stopped pretending. He was still hinting, but now he directly talked about the Dark Lord.

John also knew what the other party meant, so he had to fool him every time and show his approval of the Dark Lord's ideas from time to time.

Amidst the endless annoyance, December came quietly.

In the Potions class, after a lesson under Snape's gloomy gaze, everyone was discussing Christmas arrangements enthusiastically.

With Ron not coming home either, the Weasleys decided to go to Romania to visit Charlie Weasley who was raising dragons there.

Chapter 20 Christmas and Lao Ganma

John watched the Weasley twins cast a spell on Snowball so that Snowball would chase Quirrell and hit him on the head, which made him feel secretly happy.

Quirrell, who stopped pretending in front of John, could not show his face in front of other students. He could only continue to pretend to be a person and smile bitterly as if he was cowardly. In fact, he even thought about where to bury the Weasley twins.

The biting cold wind slapped the windows of the Hogwarts classrooms. There was a roaring fire burning in the auditorium, and the weather turned cold.

John rubbed his palms and let out a breath of white air that fell on the glass.

Seeing that Malfoy was going to fall in love with Harry for a while before the holiday, John complained: "They say elementary school students will bully the people they like. Malfoy has a crush on him."

Helga held the fir tree for Christmas in the hallway.

Ron was angered first because Malfoy talked about his family.

But Snape seemed to have waited until this moment on purpose. Even with Hagrid's intercession, he did not hesitate to deduct 5 points from Gryffindor.

Malfoy left triumphantly, and deliberately squeezed the fir tree needles everywhere.

"I'm going to teach him a lesson, just like John taught him a lesson!" Ron gritted his teeth with hatred, wishing he could transform into John and punch Malfoy in the face.

Harry nodded with deep understanding. Malfoy and Snape were the two people he hated most at Hogwarts.

Hagrid poured cold water on him, "That's probably going to be difficult. John is the most capable wizard I've ever seen. Come and have a look at the auditorium with me. John will go with us."

Ron suddenly felt bad. Hagrid invited them to see the almost decorated auditorium. John also wanted to see how Christmas was celebrated in the wizarding world.

The auditorium became beautiful and spectacular under the decoration of Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick.

The walls were covered with hanging ribbons of holly and mistletoe, and twelve towering Christmas trees stood around.

Some trees were hung with shiny little icicles, and others were lit with hundreds of candles.

Hagrid just sent the last tree, and it was over after decorating the tree.

Hagrid began to look forward to Christmas and asked: "How many days until the holiday?"

"There's only one day. This reminds me. We can go to the library in half an hour."

Hermione did not forget Nico Flamel and extended an invitation to John, "John, do you want to come with us?"

"Okay, it's okay to be idle." John agreed after thinking about it and being quite concerned about it.

Hagrid asked curiously: "You are working too hard if you still read books during the holiday."

He is in a good mood because Christmas is coming soon.

But Harry would soon put him in a bad mood. Harry said happily: "We are not reviewing our lessons, we are trying to find out who Nicolas Flamel is."

"I told you to stop. What that big dog is guarding has nothing to do with you."

Surprise turned to horror, and Hagrid persuaded the three little ones to stop this dangerous behavior.

However, he also underestimated Gryffindor's death-seeking spirit. The more this happened, the more motivated the three of them were.

It’s just that this name is too difficult to find. The three little ones looked through many books in the library but couldn’t find it.

For this reason, Hermione also made a list to make it easier to find.

When it was dinner time, the four of them left the library.

Hermione refused to admit defeat and asked them to search during the holiday. It would be best to inform herself of the results through an owl.

…

on vacation.

John was eating turkey, and he had to say that this chicken was really big and nothing else.

Using a knife and fork to cut off a piece of meat from the turkey, John had the urge to wrap it in bread and eat it.

At the same time, his owl Basil had already flown away, probably to get the gift his parents were going to send.

"The express delivery industry is really developed. If we can open an owl express company, we will definitely make a lot of money."

John didn't know what his parents would give him. He just hoped that Mr. Wick wouldn't send a mouse or a black widow.
