The Silent Witch of Hogwarts

Chapter 44: The Harvest

First, pay attention to the runes inscribed at the center of the magic circle. Although they resemble watermelons, you absolutely must not draw them exactly like watermelons...

Then there's the surrounding spell, which should form a circle... but definitely not a perfect circle, but rather an ellipse, narrower on the sides...

Also, pay attention to the ink you use. Vee's blood ink works very well, but research suggests it would be even better if dragon blood were mixed in...

Looking at the notes filled with writing, Loila smiled slightly.

finished!

I guess so……

Loila spent a whole day conducting numerous experiments and also compiled notes.

My notes on magic arrays have been updated with another significant addition!

Feeling satisfied, Loila leaned back in her chair, her pointed ears twitching happily, her blue eyes filled with joy.

But after the initial joy, Loira suddenly realized something...

Have I forgotten something?

Ah! Yes! Mr. Lupin's wolfsbane potion... Loila patted her face to bring herself back to reality.

I was so focused on studying the magic array that I completely forgot about Mr. Lupin... Royla, you rascal.

Fortunately, Mr. Lu Ping will not need the wolfsbane medicine in August... I just need to get it ready before the middle of September.

However, the wolfsbane medicine itself requires a lot of time; it needs to be left to stand for a full seven days after it is made.

Professor Snape also mentioned a lack of datura... but how would I know where to buy it... after all, I've never eaten it before.

Loila tilted her head, unsure of what to do. Perhaps Diagon Alley was a good option... but there were just too many people there.

If I go earlier, I should avoid these dangers. I can also write a note in advance telling the store manager what I want to buy... that way, I shouldn't need to communicate.

"You're a genius, Loila Hamilton..." Loila nodded in satisfaction, leaning back in her chair and letting it tilt slightly upwards.

And then there's nothing much going on for the time being. I just need to wait for school to start in September... Wait, school starts?!

"Bang!"

Loila lost her balance and fell to the ground, chair and all.

"Ah..." groaning as she slowly got up, Loila quickly apologized in a low voice as she looked at the owl Sia, whom she had disturbed.

But after apologizing to the owl, Royla had to think about Hogwarts.

Lupin suggested that he wear a mask to class... which was indeed a good idea, but... it didn't solve the core problem.

How should I teach my students?

We can't just keep stammering like this, can we?

Loila pursed her lips, feeling incredibly embarrassed, but speaking in front of so many people was inherently awkward!

Loila had just broken her own record for the most people she addressed in a speech that morning; it was really too far ahead of her to be thinking about even more people now.

But the date is getting closer and closer... It's already almost mid-August, and I'll be going there in a few days...

"Buzz".

Just as Loila was fretting, the wristband she was wearing made a soft sound.

Then a line of text slowly appeared.

"Good evening, or good morning, Loila! Because I don't know if you're in London or Tokyo."

It's Miss Lovegood! She's greeting me in her most peculiar way.

Seeing Luna's message, Loila felt a slight lightening of the heaviness in her heart.

"Good evening, Miss Lovegood. I'm currently in Diagon Alley," Loila wrote slowly.

"Oh, I see. Then quickly open the window."

Should we open the window?

Loila paused for a moment, then slowly walked to the window and opened it.

The night sky is beautiful tonight, with no dark clouds, and the starry sky and crescent moon are clearly visible from Diagon Alley.

"We're looking at a starry sky right now."

Seeing Luna's words, Loila smiled gently... Miss Lovegood is always such an interesting person... even though she said she was interesting before.

By the way, should I tell her about what I've learned today?

Thinking this, Loila's wand began to write on her wristband: "Today I discovered a new ancient rune and learned a new magic circle."

"What kind of magic array? Is it for dispelling disruptive energy?"

"It shouldn't be," Loira tapped her wand lightly. "It's about memories."

"Memory" (ºДº*) Luna even drew a surprised expression on her wristband, which made Loila chuckle and caused Sia to tilt her head and look over.

"I'm...sorry!" Loila quickly said, "Did I disturb your rest?"

Wait a minute... owls are supposed to rest during the day, right?

Loila turned her head away somewhat awkwardly and continued chatting with Luna.

"That's right, memories. I can use a magic circle to see my own memories."

"Just my own?" Luna's voice came quickly, and after a pause, she added, "Can someone else's be used?"

"If you can see other people, can you see my memories?"

"It's still unclear, but looking at other people's memories and stuff..." Loila paused and wrote, "It doesn't seem like a good thing."

Yes, it's very rude to casually look into other people's memories... Royla couldn't help but think of Dumbledore.

Only someone as rude as him would do that.

"It's certainly impolite to casually look into other people's memories, but I want to show them to Loira."

"After all, Loila taught me a lot about magic arrays, and I also want to teach Loila how to deal with the harassing Mang."

"They're invisible... If I could let Loila see my memories, it would be much easier to teach you, wouldn't it?"

If only I could see my memories...

Loila paused for a moment when she saw this sentence, then her eyes widened suddenly.

Miss Lovegood, you are a genius!

Loila banged on the windowsill, and ended up clutching her hand while gripping her wand tightly.

Yes, memories!

If I could use a memory magic array to transmit my memories to others... wouldn't that solve the problem of attending classes?

Moreover, such memories are very easy to find!

Loila listened very attentively to every black magic lesson Durmstrang taught. If she could find a way to extract and store these memories like Mr. Riddle did, and then share them with her students using a magic circle, that would be great.

Then I can teach without saying a word during class!

Miss Lovegood is truly a genius! She should serve Lord Grindelwald just like me!

No, no, no, no… Loila quickly patted her face to calm herself down.

Miss Lovegood is not even eighteen years old yet. How could Lord Grindelwald's cult want child labor?

Even though I was only seventeen years old back then, I was just a few days away from becoming an adult!

And how can a half-breed Veela be the same as a wizard, right?

"Buzz".

Luna seemed to have sent another message after Loyla didn't reply.

"So, Loila, do you want to learn?"

"Of course, of course!" Loila wrote on her wristband. "Also, thank you, Miss Lovegood, your words have been very enlightening."

"Is that so? That's wonderful."

"After all, we're friends, aren't we?"

Upon seeing the word "friends," Loila's smile slowly faded as she recalled the memory she had witnessed that afternoon.

friend?

Will I always be friends with Miss Lovegood?

She pursed her lips, remained silent for a long while, and then slowly wrote: "Thank you, Miss Lovegood."

"Good night."
