Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 83: Bogut’s I am afraid of dizziness
" Then, what I want to tell everyone is: in the closet, the Bogut sitting in the dark has not yet appeared in any image. It does not know what can scare the people outside the door... …No one knows what Bogut looks like when alone, but when I release it, it will immediately become the thing that each of us fears the most."
"This means," Professor Lu Hu said, "Before the practice officially begins, we have a huge advantage over Bogut... Does anyone know where the advantage lies?"
"I think... because there are too many people here." said a student.
"Yes, that's right!" Lu Ping smiled, "When dealing with Bogut, the best way is to have more people, so that he is confused. Because he doesn't know what to change."
"The spell to repel Bogut is very simple, but it requires willpower. You know, what really scares Bogut away is laughter! All you have to do is force it to become what you think is ridiculous."
"Let’s chant the spell without a magic wand. Please tell me... funny!"
Maca is obviously not cold about this, in fact, Bogut is almost harmless. Even if the other person becomes the thing you fear most, it won't cause you corresponding harm-they will only scare you with bluffing.
"Okay," Professor Lupin said, "Very good. But this is only the easiest part. You know, just saying this spell is not enough..."
Lupin had everyone line up, one by one, to deal with Bogut in the closet.
At this point, Lupin’s course content is undoubtedly better than Hagrid. Although Bogut looks terrible, it has no possibility of hurting people, and it is very suitable as the content of the first class.
Everyone seems very happy, after all, such an interesting course is really rare.
Of course, occasionally, it is inevitable that some students are frightened and dizzy, but at least so far no one has experienced this.
Soon, it's Maca's turn.
"...Oh, ok! Very good!" Lupin praised loudly, and then went on, "Then, next one!"
Maca stepped forward, facing Bogut, who had previously turned into a snow monster in Christmas costume, and waited quietly.
He was also curious about how Bogut would react when facing him.
The next moment, the snow monster twisted and spun, making a crackling sound-this was a sign that Bogut was about to deform.
The crackling sound continued, it rotated so fast, but it didn't complete its transformation.
There was a look of doubt on everyone's faces, and Professor Lupin looked at Bogut suspiciously, not knowing what it was up to.
You must know that people are fearful, no matter how small they are, Bogut will detect it and transform himself into what the other person fears.
So Lupin didn’t think about anything else, he just thought something was wrong with this Bogut.
But Maca knew exactly what was going on. He looked at Bogut, who was twisting and spinning in mid-air, and seeing that it didn't seem to stop, he couldn't help but stretch out his wand.
Originally, Maca wanted to use a Frozen Charm, but after a little consideration, he gave up.
"Funny and funny."
Maca turned the spinning Bogut into a big ball of yarn, bounced on the ground a few times, and rolled aside.
"Perhaps because I am more afraid of dizziness, it wants to make me dizzy by spinning constantly." Maca explained dryly.
"Hmm..." Lu Ping said, "Oh, okay...maybe that's right."
The other students were wondering. When they heard Maca’s reason, they couldn't help but laugh.
Generally speaking, this class was very successful. If possible, everyone hopes that Professor Lu Ping can break the curse that "Defence Against the Dark Arts professors can only serve for one year" and stay forever.
The students love his Defence Against the Dark Arts course.
Perhaps only Draco Malfoy and his gang of Slytherin House people are talking bad about Professor Lupin.
"Look at his robe," Malfoy would say loudly as Professor Lupin walked by, "He is dressed like a house elf in our house."
But apart from them, no one cared that Professor Lupin’s robe was patched and fringed.
His next few lessons are as lively and interesting as the first.
After Bogut, they studied the red hat, which is a kind of unpleasant little guy like a monster. Wherever someone bleeds, they are lurking somewhere. In the main castle building, in the potholes of the deserted battlefield, they waited to violently attack those who lost their way.
Then, the content of the class changed from a red hat to a Kabbah.
This is a crawling aquatic animal that looks like a scaly monkey with webbed hands, busy trying to strangle the waders walking in their ponds without knowing the depth.
Every class, everyone is looking forward to it. The Defense Against the Dark Arts class hasn't brought you this feeling for a long time.
Compared to the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, Hagrid’s class on Protecting Magical Creatures looks terrible.
After the first lesson full of action, this course became very dull.
Although Maca gave Hagrid a good start, the rumors spread by Malfoy made Hagrid lose his confidence. Now they learn how to take care of the Flobber caterpillars from lesson to lesson. They often stuff shredded lettuce into the slimy throat of the Flobber caterpillar in class...
In the eyes of the students, they must be the most annoying creatures in existence.
Maca has nothing to do with this.
Although he doesn't mind being an "assistant" outside the organization by the way, since Hagrid has lost his confidence, he is not the kind of person who insists on helping out.
What's more, he has a lot to do!
Even later than today, he has to spare time to go to Hogsmeade Village and get something from his partner Tyrande.
Hogsmeade Village is always covered in white because it has been located above the snow line for many years. On this point, Maca has long been used to it.
But the recent Hogsmeade is a bit different from usual—there are dementors searching everywhere, and most wizards rarely go out.
Sirius Black’s escape from prison did cause a lot of trouble. After all, since Azkaban operated as a wizard prison, there has never been a prison escape from prisoners!
Maca walks alone in the dark village of Hogsmeade, and will pass by one or two dementors in a short while, but they all ignore the existence of Maca without exception.
It turns out that they really can't find Maca.
And Maca didn't have the time to pay attention to the monsters. He hurriedly bypassed the tall and thin big guys, and quickly came to the back door of an unremarkable shop in a certain alley.
"咚咚."
Maca knocked on the wooden door lightly, and the sound was particularly abrupt in the silent night.
Soon, the door was opened from the inside, and a bandaged face appeared behind the door.
"Oh, it's you... come in quickly." Tyrande opened the wooden door halfway and beckoned in a hurry.
Maca walked in sideways, and the door quickly creaked and closed again.
"It's terrible! Those damn...cough cough...damn dementors!" Tyrande angrily said, "Business is all...cough cough...all driven away by them!"
"So I'm here to give you something good." Under the disguise of Maca, the file-like voice still made people want to pick their ears.
He took out a small bottle and placed it on the table in front of Tyrande.
"This is a gadget that has a similar effect to the Patronus Charm. Although the effect is a lot worse than the Patronus Charm, after all, anyone can use it..."
"Why...cough cough...how to use it?" Tyrande picked up the small bottle and looked at it. It seemed to contain a cloud of milky white floc, glowing with a faint light.
"You just need to pull out the cork." Maca explained, "It will burst out with a burst of white light, blocking the dementor from the outside, and the effective duration is about one minute."
"Oh! This is really a...ahem...good thing." Tyrande looked very happy, "How many are there?"
"It's a pity, not much." Maca spread it out~IndoMTL.com~At least don't expect it to be mass-produced...but the price can be higher, can't it? "
"Ahem...Yes, I think...Ahem, yes!" Tyrande nodded and said, "Oh, by the way...Ahem...Your stuff is ready. "
He stood up, took a flat box from the shelf behind him, and placed it in front of Maca.
Maca opened the box gently and took out the contents.
It was a dark outfit, from clothes to pants, to a long cloak with a hood, and even a pair of boots and a pair of gloves.
They all look exquisite. At first glance they seem to be black, but if you look closely, you will find a faint dark green in them. And just on their surface, they seem to have fine scales, which reminds people of snake skin.
That's right, this is the raw material that Maca used to peel off the snake skin from the basilisk, and asked Tyrande to find the craftsman to order something.
In addition to this, there is still a lot of material left on the basilisk, enough for Maca to slowly arm himself.
Especially the basilisk horn, Maca intends to handle it by himself. If nothing happens, a powerful self-made magic wand will become one of his powerful aids in the future.
The things he wanted to do have been done. Maca sat here for a while at Tyrande. After learning about the recent rumors, he got up and left.
What he didn't expect was that in the village of Hogsmeade, where dementors were everywhere, Sirius Black was daringly running around in the form of Animagus.
"...I really have a heart."
Just when Maca walked out the back door of Tyrande's shop, he caught a glimpse of a certain black dog flashing by in the depths of the alley.
