367 Divination class, people who shouldn’t be there, house elves

Will there be one?

This is the second time Sybil has said such inexplicable words. Karan still remembers what she said the first time: "When falsehood becomes true."

The rest of the people did not doubt the identity of Sybil's assistant. Cassandra Seer was blind and had difficulty moving, but——

"Won't this delay your class?" Pandora asked curiously as she passed the ladder: "I remember you are only in the first grade, right?"

"No." Sybil stared directly at Pandora, her eyes bulging: "My grandmother and the principal have already agreed that the divination class will be staggered with other classes in advance."

Karan deliberately fell at the back of the group. When he passed by Sybil, he suddenly said to her: "When falsehood becomes true."

Then Karan watched Sybil's reaction carefully, but Sybil just blinked her eyes, and she seemed not to remember saying this at all.

"Then what?" It was she who asked Karan: "This sounds like a half-truth."

Karan frowned slightly.

"Nothing," he said, and walked up the ladder.

Sybill Trelawney's most famous prophecy is that Voldemort will not be able to coexist with children born at the end of July to a family that has resisted him three times. This refers to two children - Neville Longbottom and Harry Potter, but Voldemort chose someone with the same bloodline as himself - the half-blood wizard Harry Potter.

Voldemort took the initiative to mark his powerful enemy, and under the magic of Lily's Love, he encountered unmatched power, causing the Death Curse to hit him, turning him into an existence worse than a ghost.

Karan was not sure whether the current Sibyl had inherited the third eye, nor whether the words she said inexplicably were accurate, but there was obviously something wrong with the current Sibyl, and she was far from the half-assed prophet he remembered.Of course, she never had a bottle of sherry in her hand.

After reaching the top of the ladder, Karan came to the strangest classroom he had ever seen - thick curtains completely blocked the windows, preventing any sunlight from entering, and there were more than 20 small round tables placed in the room. , there is a candle erected on each table, which is the only light source in the classroom, and everything in the background is dark.

And Karan also smelled a wonderful fragrance-it came from the candle.

"This is a special incense candle." Sybil said behind Karan: "It helps relax and meditate, allowing the mind to settle down faster, thus opening the Third Eye."

Karan was indeed relaxed. The scent of the incense candle was good and fresh. And unlike future Sibyl's divination class, the whole classroom was neither stuffy nor filled with a nauseating thick fragrance, even the items. The arrangement must be much neater - of course, this may be because Cassandra Seer has just arrived at Hogwarts and has not had time to move everything.

A few of them were the last students to arrive in the classroom. When Karan sat down next to Gaspard, the ladder closed automatically, and the classroom suddenly became darker. The candlelight swayed slightly, and it felt like listening to a ghost story. .

The students excitedly took out their textbooks. This was exactly what they wanted - a unique class atmosphere worthy of the reputation of a prophet.

Sybil walked into the darkness where the candlelight could not reach. After a short while, Cassandra the prophet finally walked out with her support.

"Welcome, kids."

Her voice was ethereal and unreal, as if coming from a very far away place, even though she was standing in front of the students.

"Welcome to the divination class. I am Professor Cassandra, you can also call me Cassandra Prophet. I believe you have never seen me before, I rarely go out. This time is also a chance, Only then will I come to Hogwarts to teach."

"You should all know that I am blind, but this is not important. The third eye will never become blurred due to sight. On the contrary, what is really needed for divination is always the mind, but not every wizard can With such a gift, someone like you, kid—"

At this moment, Cassandra's prophet's vision seemed to have suddenly recovered. Her white eyes looked at Lovegood accurately. This scene looked particularly scary in the dim candlelight - Karan He even speculated that this might be Cassandra's purpose in setting up the classroom in this way.

"Me?" Lovegood was startled: "What's wrong with me? Um...Professor?"

"You are very lucky." Cassandra Prophet said: "It seems to have the potential to open the third eye. Don't give up the ideas in your mind. This will help many people and allow them to be saved."

These words were so inexplicable that many Ravenclaw students looked suspicious - they all knew that Lovegood had a dream of opening a newspaper, where he would publish what he had in mind. Many weird ideas - such as moon frogs, large-mouthed colorful ball fish, and non-existent animals such as molesting flies. He even believes that the Ministry of Magic has a conspiracy to cause tooth decay in people, as well as weird ideas such as a secret army. .

Is this a reference to "The Quibbler"?

Karan thought that in the future when Voldemort ruled the Ministry of Magic, "The Quibbler" would become the only newspaper that dared to tell the truth. This did help many people, although Lovegood had been forced to do so since Luna was captured. Changed my mind.

"And you."

Cassandra Seer turned her pale eyes away from the elated Lovegood and turned to Pandora sitting next to him, who was also staring at her closely.

"Interesting child." Cassandra said the prophet: "Fate has already planned for you, but you don't know it. You must stop your unnecessary delusions in time to have longer-lasting happiness."

This didn't sound like a good thing. Pandora was still staring closely into Cassandra's prophet's eyes, but she showed a puzzled look - her natural Legilimens failed with the prophet, and she could only The sound of swirling mist is heard, but nothing else can be heard.

However, Karan's expression on the other side suddenly changed - the words of Cassandra's prophet were particularly consistent with his guess - Pandora's death was because she tried to explore the secrets of the castle stairs, but lost control and died while testing the spell. Died in front of his daughter Luna.

But this should have changed a long time ago. Karan did not share the secret of the crown with others. It was a powerful ancient magic that even he himself could not resist.Or is it that Pandora is still secretly studying the stairs without telling anyone?But she has already found Queenie - Karan remembers that Pandora came up with the idea of ​​creating a spell in order to find a way to control Legilimency. Could this not avoid Pandora's end?

Just then, in the silence, Sybil suddenly spoke:

"The magnetic field has changed, Grandma. The magnetic field of magic has changed."

As she spoke, she shifted her gaze, and finally it landed on Karan - Gespard immediately gave Karan a look: I knew you were not simple.

Karan rolled his eyes, but he quickly became serious again - Cassandra asked her great-great-granddaughter to take him over, and walked to Karan's side. The appearance of the figure caused the candlelight to sway and turn white. The blind eye appeared in front of Karan, and all the students in the classroom held their breath - they were all curious about what Cassandra the prophet could see in Karan. In this room, Karan had the richest and most experienced experience. Legends, especially those related to the basilisk, make him even more mysterious.

"Someone who shouldn't be in this room."

Cassandra Prophet suddenly said, her voice becoming somewhat broken due to excitement: "This disrupts the magic magnetic field in the classroom, and even the Third Eye is affected. Why are you here? You shouldn't be here."

Karan was stunned - what do you mean by someone who shouldn't be there?He obviously chose the course through normal procedures.

There was a series of whispers in the classroom, and the students looked at Karan.Steve curiously tapped Karan's arm twice, as if to confirm whether the figure in front of him was an illusion.

At this time, the stunned Sybil spoke again: "It's magic, grandma, it's magic that brought him here. And not only that, it also allowed him to change the magic magnetic field in the classroom and change many people." ——”

Cassandra Prophet suddenly held Sibyl's arm tightly. Sibyl seemed to come back to her senses. She looked blankly at the students who were staring at her curiously, lowered her head and walked back behind her grandmother. He didn't continue talking.

"It's time for class to begin, kids."

Cassandra's prophet suddenly said: "Let's start by learning to read tea leaves, which is the most basic method of divination, then palmistry, flames, and finally the crystal ball - if everything goes well."

The divination class began in a daze. The students were divided into groups of two. They took out colorful teacups from the teacup rack, and then asked Sybil to fill the teacups with tea, and then drank all the tea. , and asked my partner to interpret the traces of tea leaves.

Many people gathered around Karan during the grouping - although they did not understand the meaning of Cassandra's prophet and Sibyl's words earlier, they could also hear that Pandora would have suffered bad luck, but after meeting Karan Her bad luck has disappeared, and Karan can affect more than one person. The magic magnetic field around her is enough to change many people.

After a silent contest, he was finally won by the guy with glowing glasses, Gaspard. This feature of his was extremely advantageous in the dark environment, making it impossible for others to look directly into his eyes.

“How does it feel to be a mascot?”

Gaspard stared at Karan with burning eyes, not even caring that he drank the hot tea in one gulp, as if it was not his own tongue and throat.

Karan's eyes twitched twice.

"What do you think?" he muttered inexplicably: "A mascot is much better than unknown."

"Unknown?" Gespard suddenly became interested: "Do you see the unknown in me?"

He seemed to think too highly of Karan's divination talent.

"Do you think Sybil's condition is a little strange?"

Steve, who was in a group with Greta, leaned back and asked: "I thought there were two professors teaching us, forgetting that she is only in the first grade."

This is not just Steve's opinion, many people think so.

"And she seems to be able to see things that even Cassandra's prophet cannot see," Pandora also quietly leaned over and said: "For example, the magic magnetic field on your body, Karan."

Lovegood is also keeping a close eye on Kahlan, but he has not forgotten Kahlan's other identity.

"Do you want to open a newspaper agency with me, Jixiang - oh, no, Karan." He said enthusiastically: "We will definitely be a great success!"

Callan quickly waved Lovegood away, but Pandora's words reminded him - does Sybil really have the third eye?Even more powerful than Cassandra the Prophet?

But this is somewhat inconsistent with the Sybil in Karan's memory - that half-baked prophet who could only make a living by tricking and deceiving. Fortunately, he was recruited by Principal Dumbledore in the end. Otherwise, I don't know where he would continue to wander.

As for the identity of this mascot, Karan accepted it calmly - Snape is the best proof. If it weren't for his gold galleons, Snape could only live in a place like Spider End Alley, with him Mrs. Prince couldn't open a Gobstone shop without her annoying father.

But what about that magic?What magic brought Karan here?

The strangest thing about Karan is the talent of a closed-brained person - this is the origin of his superb magical talent. His strong willpower allows Karan to quickly master new spells, and the levitation technique he has been practicing since he was a child Strengthened his magic power.

But after his experience at Potter Manor, Callan suspected that his talent was the work of Antioch, that is, his ancestors. Just like Meadows' status as a late bloomer, this may be the result of Antioch. Antioch continued to study the results of blood magic - Linfred finally said that Antioch had made some terrible attempts in his later years.

As for other than that - time travellers?Or does it mean you know the plot well?But the world he lives in now is not exactly the same as in his memory, such as Ariana, Myrtle, and many more...

"If you don't drink the tea, it will get cold."

Gaspard on the other side reminded him, raising Karan's tea cup in front of him, as if he couldn't wait to decipher Karan's tea leaves.

Karan drank all the tea according to Cassandra's prophet's instructions, then shook the tea leaves a few times, drained the tea, and exchanged cups with Gaspard.

"What can you see in my glass?" asked Gaspard.

"Well..." Karan frowned and tried to associate the tea leaves in front of him with a pattern: "Leaves, a lot of leaves."

Gaspard looked up and stared at him, his eyes seeming to say: Are you kidding me?

"Then tell me about it." Karan said impatiently. He had long known that he did not have the talent for divination, and divination is not like magic and transfiguration, which can be mastered quickly through practice-his first The second thing I hate is this kind of subject that only depends on talent. The first thing I hate is courses like "History of Magic", which are not magical at all, except that the teacher who teaches them is a ghost.

"Then let me take a look."

Gaspard pushed up his glasses with an expressionless expression. Karan's heart skipped a beat, and there was a vague feeling of something bad.

"Looking at the tea leaves from this direction is the shape of the moon, not the full moon, which means that you will be full of regrets and lonely and helpless sometime in the future. But if you look at it from the other direction...the cross, which symbolizes Suffering and pain are still not good. Turn another angle - do you think this looks like a carriage? Just think of it as it is, tired from running around and never able to stop. The last 90 degrees - is this a crow? ?Death a violent death.”

Gaspard raised his head, with an appropriate expression of regret on his face.

"You are so miserable." He sighed.

Karan looked at him sarcastically.

"You wait!"

As he spoke, he looked at Gaspard's teacup, bound to find something even worse than his own.

"Honey,"

At this time, Cassandra Prophet suddenly appeared behind Karan. She walked without making any sound. In addition, the dim candlelight could not illuminate the entire classroom, so Karan did not notice that a person suddenly appeared behind him. Big living people.

"Do you mind letting me take a look first?"

Of course Karan wouldn't mind, and he handed over Gespad's tea cup - it wasn't accurate to say it, Cassandra's way of checking the tea leaves was by fingering it, and it seemed that she was doing it through this method. Know the shape of tea leaves.

"I felt a single-plank bridge."

Cassandra's prophet's white eyes moved to Gespard: "A single-plank bridge on the edge of a cliff. You are constantly testing on the edge of danger, my dear, if you make a mistake, you will be in jeopardy."

This sounds no better than [Unknown], and even more dangerous and terrifying. Karan immediately stared at Gaspard, but found that he didn't care about Cassandra's words at all, but Karan's tea cup was handed to Sybil, who came with him, for inspection.

Sybil held the teacup and looked at it for a short while, turning the teacup around.

"The blade, this portends danger, but fortunately it is not insurmountable. Then there is a tombstone, which foretells who you have buried with your own hands, or will do so in the future. The house, no, it is the castle, it seems Hogwarts Very important to you. And then the last one, if I read correctly, this should be a house elf..."

It sounds like Gespard's readings were all wrong - it seems his gift of divination was just as bad as Callan's, but unfortunately Sybil's readings weren't any better.

"I thought it was a crow." Gaspard asked curiously: "But what does house elf mean? Does this shape still appear in tea divination?"

Sybil raised her head and opened her mouth slightly, but at this time Cassandra Prophet had already walked to her side again, and was helped away by her.

The two of them only heard two brief words spoken by Sybil.

"Eternal Servant."

“With being a slave from which one cannot break free.”
