Chapter 148 Exposure caused by the soul-stealing curse
When he returned to the dormitory that night, while Michael and Anthony were there, Ike threw four badges to them.
"What is this?" Terry looked at the huge SPEW on the badge and was stunned.
"As you can see, a badge."
"What badge am I talking about? SPEW? Vomiting?"
"No, it's the House Elf Rights Promotion Association. I'm the chief promoter, and you are members." Ike put the book on the desk, "By the way, two Sicos each, give me money."
"Is this... the one that Hermione made?" Stewart, who was well-informed, asked, and when Ike nodded, he immediately threw the badge on the bed.
"This is simply impossible!"
"And, Two Siko! Why don't you go rob Gringotts!"
"Believe me, Gringotts is not that easy to grab." Ike said seriously, "Besides, this money is going to be used for the development of the association, and it has a serious purpose."
With that said, Ike stretched out his hand.
Just as Stewart was about to say something else, he was pulled by Michael and Terry on the side, and then he saw the cushions and pillows that had floated up and surrounded them.
"I would love to be a house elf..." Stewart counted out two Sickles and placed them solemnly on Ike's hand.
"What association is this?"
"House Elf Rights Promotion Association." Ike replied seriously.
"Yes, that's right, he is... a member of the Promotion Association!"
Several people paid the money one by one, watching the "floating objects" around them falling back to their original places, and silently breathed a sigh of relief.
They had experienced Ike's "Pillow Technique" before, and they didn't want to enjoy it again.
"Don't worry, I guarantee that the money will come back to you." Ike collected the money and said, "How about you just treat it like I borrowed it from you? Isn't that much better?"
"Forget it, just support Hermione's 'great cause'." Terry shook his head helplessly.
"Seriously, didn't you tell her that this was impossible?"
"I said it, but..." Ike spread his hands, and everyone immediately understood.
They also understood Hermione's stubbornness.
In the next few days, the number of members of the House Elf Rights Promotion Association expanded rapidly. Almost all fourth-year students in other houses except Slytherin joined, but there was not much progress in other grades.
It is obvious that the development of the association has reached a bottleneck, but there is nothing that can be done.
In fact, even these existing members are basically friends of Ike and Hermione, and they only support friends who occasionally go "crazy".
Free the house elves?They're not crazy!
Moreover, after Ike's strong suggestion and modification, the association badge has many more functions, such as temperature control, anti-dirty, and good-looking. It is not a big loss to buy such a "decoration" for two things.
Of course, Hermione didn't know this. She thought Ike had really put his energy into it, and was used as an example to teach Harry and Ron a lesson.
The two of them dared to be angry but dared not speak out...
But it’s okay, it’s just a little change in the boring life.
In October, Moody, who had demonstrated almost all the dangerous dark arts, took up a new trick: he decided to let the students learn to resist the Imperius Curse.
This was undoubtedly an outrageous decision, and what was even more outrageous was that Dumbledore actually acquiesced to Moody's approach.
"I think Professor Moody has his own reasons for doing this." Dumbledore said this after being asked by an unknown number of people.
Ever since, the entire Hogwarts was captured by the "Soul Seizing Curse".
In every class, Moody would call the students up one after another and use the soul-stealing spell on them, making them perform all kinds of incredible actions.
Among the boys in Ravenclaw, Stuart was the worst. He danced tap dance and ballet. Once, he even lay on the ground like a puppy and almost performed in public.Among the girls was Moratti, who jumped up and down on the table while standing upside down, performed a set of extremely difficult yoga movements, and stuffed herself directly into a small box.
Almost everyone suffered from this "torture", but Ike was "lucky" to escape every time.
"None of you have successfully resisted the Seizing Curse, which makes me very disappointed." After another "successful" teaching, Professor Moody said, "Potter did it two weeks ago. Now my Soul Seizing Curse can't even have an effect on him."
"Are you really a Ravenclaw known for your wisdom?"
"Hufflepuff didn't surprise me."
"get out of class off!"
Maybe it was Professor Moody's arrogant appearance, or maybe it was the reason why he had escaped death many times. Someone directly retorted: "Professor, there are still people who have never experienced your soul-stealing curse!"
"You're talking about Strider, I don't think he needs to go through this."
"But I don't think you deserve special treatment!"
"That's right!"
"Let's also cast a soul-stealing curse on Ike!"
The classroom instantly became chaotic, with everyone talking and making a mess. Even Stuart and the others were making noises.
"Haha..." Looking at this messy scene, Moody suddenly laughed sinisterly, and his magic eye moved around.
"Since you ask so, then... Ike Strider, come forward!"
Ike helplessly glanced at the aggrieved people around him, as well as those like Hermione and Stuart who were ready to watch the excitement. Shi Shiran walked up and stood at the front with his back to Moody.
"Soul out of the body!"
Ike shrugged.
"Soul out of the body!"
Ike winked at Hermione.
"Soul out of the body!"
He even waved to everyone.
"As you can see, Strider is completely capable of resisting the Seizing Curse." Moody put away his wand and said.
"This is impossible!"
"This is a lie! You didn't use the Soul Seizing Curse at all!"
Someone whispered something, but in the classroom that became extremely quiet due to Ike's performance, this sentence was particularly clear.
Then, a louder discussion broke out.
"Bang! Bang!"
Moody's crutch hit the floor hard twice, and everything fell silent again.
His magic eyes moved faster, and everyone felt that the thing was staring at them, as if they had seen through them.
"Strider, I will use the Seizing Curse on you with all my strength next." Moody pointed his wand directly at Ike and shouted.
"Soul out of the body!"
Before Ike could react, the white light on the tip of Moody's staff flashed away. Under everyone's gaze, Ike moved.
Spread your arms, look diagonally upward, and point your toes, in a ballet posture.
Moody's wand moved, and Ike's left leg also moved and was raised to the side.
But very slowly, it was obvious that Ike was resisting.
On the stage, there was Moody, whose magic eyes were turning faster and faster; under the stage, there were a group of students looking at him expectantly.
Gradually, Ike's calves bent, as if they would jump to the side in the next second.
Suddenly, a magic text glowing with soft silvery white light flashed on Ike's body. Moody snorted coldly and suddenly raised his wand.
The next moment, under everyone's surprised gaze, his body hit the wall behind him hard and penetrated directly.
"boom!"
Before anyone could react, the entire wall collapsed.
Along with the smoke and dust, Moody's body slowly floated up from the ruins and moved towards Ike bit by bit.
At this time, people noticed that Ike's body was wrapped with strands of golden threads, flowing like water, from his ankles to the top of his head, and then to the extended wand.
"Isn't this what a classroom exercise should be like, Professor Moody?" Ike's tone was cold, his eyes emotionless as he stared at the powerless Moody in front of him.
Or rather...
Little Barty!
