Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 155: Almost Headless Nick
While practicing with the jade flakes, Sean also got some real leaves. However, after practicing with real leaves, he finally understood why Dumbledore suggested he use jade flakes first—Sean swallowed two leaves while eating, and was stuck by leaves five times while sleeping...
Besides, the jerky taste of those leaves already made him a little uncomfortable, and the smell of mandrake leaves was a hundred times worse—it also smelled like dragon dung... unimaginable...
Seeing that he no longer made a sound, and his face was distressed, Hermione flipped a page of the book and said casually: "The difficulty of Animagus is beyond your imagination, why don't you wait two years and try again?"
The girl has always wanted to persuade Sean to give up Animagus practice. In her opinion, although Sean is outstanding, he is only in the second grade after all—this kind of dangerous magic should be tried in the sixth or seventh grade. Besides, Sean is still aiming at the illegal Animagus.
Sean smiled and did not answer. He knew that Hermione was worried about him, but he would not give up practicing Animagus either. Before the prophecy comes true and his bloodline wakes up, he will not give up any way to improve himself.
When the two came out of the Room of Requirement, they happened to meet Hagrid walking from the other end of the corridor.
"Sean, Hermione, good evening," said Hagrid with a pile of chicken feathers on his body, "what are you doing here?"
"Oh, lost, the stairs in the castle, you know." Hermione blinked.
"That makes sense," Hagrid nodded and looked at Sean, "Shawn, thank you for what happened that day."
Sean shook his head and signaled that there is no need to be so polite: "I didn't help much, Yaya is okay?"
"It's okay, your white fresh essence is very useful."
The three of them walked towards the lower level of the castle together. During the conversation, Sean learned that Hagrid had almost no memory of what happened that day. He went to the Forbidden Forest to sprinkle medicine to drive away the flame caterpillars, and after a while of dizziness, he didn't know anything.
Hagrid came to the castle to find Dumbledore, but Dumbledore didn't seem to be in the school, so Hagrid missed it.
When they reached the third floor, they had just walked down the stairs when there was the sound of conversation in front of them.
"Troublesome, Nick, you should understand." A voice came, and Sean recognized that it was the voice of Hufflepuff's ghost fat friar.
"The bad things really came together, didn't they? None of the melancholy nuns could come, and the Wailing Widow said she couldn't come—and then I was rejected by the Headless Hunters. Really, really sucks..." The voice that answered was full of regret.
Eavesdropping is obviously not a good behavior. Sean and the others deliberately amplified the sound of their footsteps, and at the other end of the corridor, two milky white figures looked over.
It's Fat Friar and Nearly Headless Nick.
"Good evening, both of you." Hagrid was obviously familiar with the two Hogwarts ghosts, and he greeted loudly.
"Oh, Hagrid, good to see you." Nearly Headless Nick looked preoccupied.
Sean and Hermione also greeted each other, and Hagrid had already chatted with each other.
"Looks interested, Nick?"
"It's a small matter, a small matter." Nearly Headless Nick waved his hand gracefully, his tone nonchalant, but his whole body was downcast, "It's just that I was rejected by the Headless Hunters team for the 138th time... I don't really want to participate."
The Headless Hunters are a very popular group of ghosts, they only accept hunters whose heads and bodies are completely separated, obviously, Nearly Headless Nick does not meet the qualifications - as can be seen from the nickname.
Besides, the fat monk said cheerfully: "Nick, maybe you can consider forming a headhunter team?"
"Don't be stupid," Nick flicked a large stack of transparent letters in the other hand irritably, "then you won't be able to perform overhead hockey and horseback juggling comfortably—this is a big reason why the Headless Hunter is popular!"
He grumbled and complained for a while, and finally looked at Hagrid expectantly.
"Oh... Hagrid, I have a question... You always go to the school's Halloween dinner, aren't you getting a little bored?"
"Stop hinting at me, Nick," Hagrid said straight away, "but I'm sorry, I have something to do on Halloween."
Nick, who was almost headless, laughed dryly: "Yes, yes, you have to be responsible for the preparations in school."
"What's the matter?" Before Sean could stop Hermione, the girl asked curiously.
"Good question! Hermione!" Nick's eyes lit up, "I'm going to report a party on the eve of Halloween. It's my 500th anniversary. Can I invite you to attend? Of course, Sean, you are also welcome, and all your friends can come!"
"Oh, that sounds interesting." Hermione looked very interested.
Sean secretly sighed, the death day party is not a good place to go, wouldn't it be nice to attend a warm and lively Halloween banquet?
Nick and Hermione chatted a few words, and happily decided to attend the Deathday Party.
When they parted, Hagrid said, "Oh, I can't speak in front of Nick, but, Hermione, I must warn you—the Deathday party is not a good place to go, I've been to it once before, and it sucks."
"Is it so bad? I just think the party of the ghosts must be very interesting. Few people alive have attended it. It should be amazing..." Seeing Hagrid's expression, Hermione said a little nervously.
"Wonderful, but also bad." Hagrid concluded.
…
"Oh, I wonder if my promise was a bit hasty." Hermione muttered as she passed a huge pumpkin on the eve of Halloween.
"I want to stop you ~IndoMTL.com~ Sean shrugged beside her.
They were walking through the festooned auditorium to the basement classroom.
In the crowded auditorium, the students were happily chatting beside the Halloween decorations. It was said that Dumbledore had ordered a skeleton dance troupe to entertain them.
"Seriously, I am the one who agreed, Sean, you can stay here for the banquet." Hermione said.
"It's okay, I'm also curious, we can go over to say hello or something, so that when we come back, there will at least be desserts in the auditorium." Sean said with a smile.
"You are so kind, Sean."
They walked through the auditorium and headed for the party location. Candles were also lit in the passage leading to the ground, but those candles were all dark, and when they burned, they shone with a bluish light, giving everyone who passed by a gloomy look.
