Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 503: Want to win once

"Isobel, may I come in?"

After a brief knock, Katrina's voice came from outside the door.

"Wait."

Isobel raised her finger and touched the double-sided mirror lightly, got up and walked to the door, opening the door to let her sister enter the room.

Before Katrina went to Hogwarts, she often ran into her room and asked her to tell stories or teach some simple magic.

However, the relationship seems to have grown estranged since school.

Katrina has finally grown up and no longer needs to rely on her sister everywhere.

Isobel looked at her sister and thought with relief.

"Who were you talking to?" Katrina asked suspiciously.

"What's the matter?" Isobel changed the subject aloud, "Are you still struggling with your divination exam results?"

Katrina looked at the furnishings in the room, her eyes swept across the desk. Years passed, and there was hardly any change except for more books.

"Do you think you can get good grades in the O.W.Ls divination test?" Katrina did not delve into the question just now, but directly asked about the divination test results.

Katrina ended up with only a good grade in last semester's divination exam.

"You want to ask me if I can divination?"

Isobel looked her sister in the eyes and answered the question calmly, "Unfortunately, I'm not good at divination, nor can I predict the future through a crystal ball. Divination requires talent, and I obviously don't have it."

"But why are you sure that you can get a high score in the O.W.Ls divination test?" Katrina asked her doubts.

To be honest, she doesn't like Professor Trelawney very much, and thinks he is a liar. Although she has worked hard in this area, she has gained far less than other disciplines.

"Professor Trelawney should not be a liar." Isobel seemed to see through his sister's thoughts and explained kindly, "

She is a descendant of famed soothsayer Cassandra Trelawney. If you don't have real ability, I'm afraid you won't be able to serve as a professor of divination at Hogwarts for a long time. "

"Furthermore, prophecy needs the support of talent."

"I didn't say what Professor Trelawney expected to see, she just gave me a good one in the end?" Katrina knew exactly what the crystal ball divination exam was like.

"Katrina, there is one thing you need to be clear about. In fact, the divination we have learned is only the most basic knowledge. Even an advanced class in divination can't really teach you how to predict the future." He smoothed Katrina's blown-up hair like a kitten, "Crystal ball divination, reading tea leaves, palmistry (checking the lifeline and wisdom line) are the contents of the O.W.Ls divination exam."

“Every year the exams are these three, do you know why?”

Katrina shook her head, how could she possibly know why.

"They never expected to rely on divination classes to cultivate excellent fortune-tellers. Prophecy requires talent." Isobel repeated this sentence again: "A gifted wizard, after taking a fortune-telling class, will naturally be able to Quickly master the knowledge of divination, and start to learn to master your own prophecy based on it. Wizards who do not have the gift of prophecy can only ponder the objects they see, and give the so-called standard answers based on the knowledge given in the book. ."

"The result doesn't matter, even if you can get good grades in this class, you can't be a good fortune teller without the gift of prophecy, and you will only end up being seen as a liar."

"What's the point of this class?" Katrina was even more puzzled.

"It's easier to tell who will divination." Isobel thought for a while and added: "Let your three years of hard work have a perfect ending, instead of being completely rejected."

Katrina fell into an even longer silence. According to Isobel, talent is more important than hard work in order to become a fortune teller.

Well, doesn't Professor Trelawney make her feel like an under-talented fortune-teller?

It's still a liar.

"Does Albert really know divination? You should know what I mean!"

Actually, Katrina didn't really want to mention the name in front of Isobel, and it always made her feel embarrassed every time.

"He will." Isobel nodded. "In fact, several of his predictions have come true."

"He told you?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Nothing." Katrina said, "That guy always likes to be mysterious."

"Mysterious boys are more attractive, aren't they?" Isobel said.

"When did you start dating?" Katrina asked dryly.

"Last semester when the school started!" Isobel blinked and said playfully, "I confessed to him first."

"It's impossible, you're so good." Katrina was stunned, stuttering a little.

"He's better than me~IndoMTL.com~Isobel didn't tease his sister, and said with a smile, "Whoever confesses first is really not that important, as long as you can get the results you want. . "

"Did you really confess first?" Katrina was still struggling with this question.

"I just gave a little hint."

"What does it feel like to be in love?" the girl asked curiously. She has seen friends fall in love, and occasionally gets together with them to discuss those things.

"Feel"

Isobel seems to be choosing the word: "Obsessive."

"Obsessive"

"I'm afraid you will have to wait until you have someone you like to understand." Isobel said with a smile, "Do you already have someone you like?"

"No." Katrina glanced at Isobel secretly and quickly changed the subject: "I heard from a friend that when they are in a relationship, they always send letters to each other every day."

"It's the norm," Isobel quipped, "It's a bit difficult for Albert, though, he receives and sends a lot of letters every month, and when we were at school, most of them used The newsletter bookmark is in touch."

Katrina's spirit was a little dazed. She felt that Albert might have created the newsletter bookmarks to get in touch with Isobel.

"I feel like I'm broken."

Katrina leaned her head on Isobel's shoulder and murmured softly.

"You're not in love, so how come you're broken-hearted?" Isobel stroked her sister's hair and comforted her softly.

"I've never beaten you since I was a child." Katrina muttered softly, "I really want to win once, just once."

Looking at Katrina who left in a trance, Isobel shook her head, came back to the double-sided mirror, and called Albert's name softly to the mirror.
