Harry Potter: The Wizard of Apocalypse

Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Return to Hogwarts



As the last second in the hourglass passed, Ian's figure instantly disappeared from the room.

At the same time, in the Ravenclaw dormitory, Ian's figure under the bed curtain vanished almost instantly and reappeared solidly in the next second.

If someone didn't look closely, it would be almost impossible to tell the difference.

In just that short second, he had spent an entire month in the apocalypse.

Ian quietly lifted the bed curtain and found that his two energetic roommates were still playing wizard chess. He felt relieved and fell asleep peacefully.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, as expected, he was still the first one to wake up in the dormitory.

Without disturbing his roommates' sweet dreams, Ian quietly washed up and left the dormitory alone, carrying the books he needed for this morning's class.

Because it was early, he had a simple breakfast in the auditorium.

He strolled leisurely through the corridors of the campus, like a tourist checking in, stopping at every window he passed by and gazing into the distance.

There was a feeling that the green mountains were green mountains and the white clouds were white clouds.

The desolation and low points in life he had experienced in his previous life made him appreciate this carefree campus life all the more.

Ian traveled around the campus. At this moment, he had broken the shackles of "teleology," which made him finally understand a word: "experience beauty."

Any scheming, action, or cognition is a destroyer of beauty. Beauty is a feeling and an experience, and he happened to be immersed in this experience.

The first class in Ravenclaw this morning was History of Magic, and the professor was a ghost named Professor Binns.

It is said that one time he forgot to bring his body to class, and since then he stayed at Hogwarts and became the only ghost professor.

Calculating the time, Ian arrived at the History of Magic classroom almost on time.

Professor Binns had obviously inherited the traits shared by other ghosts. His lectures lacked agility and gave the impression that they were a 3D projection teaching video course.

He never calls the roll and never cares about what the students are doing. It seems that the whole world is just the classroom and him.

His unchanging, monotonous, and boring voice recited the contents of a book that was obviously older than the textbook in his hand.

It all sounded like an AI-powered audiobook reading program, making the entire class perfect for catching up on sleep.

In fact, even Ravenclaw students, who are known for their intelligence, couldn't help but doze off in this environment.

As for the little badgers next to them, they had already fallen asleep one after another.

Only one person listened attentively throughout the whole class.

That was Ian.

He took notes quickly while listening to the lecture. He found that, as long as he endured the professor's tone and ignored the long, slow pauses, Professor Binns actually talked about a lot of magical and useful content.

"…Ordinary wizards do not have the extraordinary ability to crush Muggles as imagined, especially after the Muggles raised their flaming weapons…"

"...The wizards who had to hide in the dark corners of the world finally couldn't stand this kind of life that could endanger their lives at any time, so they invented a magical spell..."

"…This is also the most critical turning point in the history of magic. The Muggle-Repelling Spell appeared…"

"…After the spell was released, the Muggles without magic power could only leave the wizard's sight without any resistance, as if nothing had happened. Even the Muggles' well-trained army, with a large number of flaming weapons, could not find the enemy. Yes, they even forgot who the enemy was…"

"…Let us remember this turning point, this turning point for the continuation of the wizarding world, and reiterate the importance of the Muggle-Repelling Charm. Turn the wand twice, press it down, and then quickly raise it high, and chant loudly, 'Aradimobiudaampa.' It's that simple, we conquered…"

Ian really didn't expect that he could learn these obscure spells in the History of Magic class.

Knowing that Professor Binns never cared about what the students were doing, Ian couldn't help but take out his wand and experiment with the Muggle-Repelling Charm in the classroom.

There was a flash of light at the tip of the wand, and although he couldn't see any effect, he had a feeling that the spell had been successfully cast.

After coming to his senses, Ian looked at his notes on the Muggle-Repelling Spell, along with the causes and consequences of its creation.

This made him feel more and more that spiritual construction is the most core and important thing for a wizard.

The invention of firearms gave Muggles great power. Wizards were discovered and persecuted, living a precarious and fearful life.

What the wizards at this moment desperately desired was peace and security, and the strong thoughts made the power of the mind burst out.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

They created this spell so simply, and this Muggle-Repelling Spell, which ignored the rules and was even a little unreasonable, was born.

In fact, Ian also discovered that throughout the history of magic, whenever wizards encountered problems they could not solve—problems that threatened their survival—spells would eventually be invented to address those problems.

Just as the legend goes, the most famous dark wizard in ancient Greece, Hercules the Devil, created Dementors, evil creatures that cannot be killed and feed on emotions and souls.

At that time, the entire magical world trembled in fear of this creature, but not long after, the ancient white magic—the Patronus Charm—was invented.

"Extraordinary intelligence and talent are the greatest wealth of mankind. It is true that only wisdom and knowledge are the most basic driving forces for human progress. Reading history can make you wise, and knowing the past can help you learn from the present."

Ian was very glad that he had listened carefully to this class, which was considered the most useless History of Magic course by all Hogwarts students.

The road ahead is long and arduous...

I will search up and down...

A class is not long, and it seems even shorter when you are focused.

When Professor Binns finished assigning the homework, the bell for the end of class rang as scheduled.

Like an alarm clock in the early morning, large numbers of sleepy little wizards opened their hazy eyes and left in groups of three or five.
