Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 295: Nightmare course
After the lunch without lamb chops, Sean and Hermione walked towards the second floor of the castle together. When passing the library, Hermione's footsteps became visibly lighter.
"It's great that the ancient rune classroom is so close to the entrance of the library." The girl said happily.
Obviously Sean was not so relaxed. With two talents, he could still struggle with Hermione and Snape's notebooks in Potions class, but he should not be so lucky in Ancient Runes class.
A lot of time and energy have been invested, but Sean has not understood the most basic "Introduction to Ancient Runes" until now.
However, runes are the key to mastering ancient magic, so the feeling of not getting feedback after hard work is terrible.
Hermione glanced at Sean with a frowning face. She naturally knew the distress of her friend. She would comfort her and said, "It's difficult to get started with ancient runes, and all magic subjects have their own peculiarities. Maybe ancient runes are just so difficult to learn by yourself? Professor Babling's teaching level is very high, and you may be able to master it after listening to the class."
Sean smiled, and put away his bitter face. He knew that Hermione was comforting himself. The same "Introduction to Ancient Runes" took only two months for Hermione to study by herself.
At present, he can only hope that Professor Bathsheda Bablin, the teacher of ancient runes, can give him some inspiration for this stone.
At the end of the corridor, they came to the classroom of ancient runes.
The curtains in the room were closed tightly, but it was still bright. There were invisible light sources on the four walls and the ceiling, which made Sean's eyes dizzy.
There are bookshelves reaching to the ceiling in the corners and on both sides of the blackboard, and there are many ancient books and materials with old or no covers.
Other than that, this classroom is normal to the point of abnormality, with desks and chairs, blackboard, globe, it's almost like the classroom that Sean used when he was in elementary school.
"Seeing this at Hogwarts, there is a strange sense of familiarity..." Hermione sighed.
Sean nodded in agreement, and the two sat in the middle seat in the middle row, which is probably the most suitable seat for listening to lectures.
Professor Babling walked in during the class time. This is a witch who looks quite young, but she has an old pedantic temperament. It is said that this professor is already very old, and for some reason he still maintains his youthful face—this is one of the reasons why many girls choose ancient runes.
Professor Babling came to the desk, and she spoke very fast: "Welcome, ancient Dalunian is a profound but boring subject. Your choice may be right or wrong. It all depends on how much knowledge you can absorb from me. I can only guarantee that I will not have any reservations. At the same time, I allow you to ask questions within ten minutes after the end of each class. If you have more questions, please come to me every Wednesday and every Friday from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. The office on the easternmost side of the hallway."
After finishing the opening remarks in one breath, Professor Babling pushed his black-rimmed glasses and glanced around the crowd expressionlessly.
"Do you understand?"
"Understood." Many people were still digesting her opening remarks, and the answers came one after another.
Behind Sean, there were two Hufflepuff girls talking in a low voice: "Professor Bablin seems to be similar to Professor McGonagall?"
"No, I heard from others that Professor Bablin is not strict at all, and she talks a lot. But she has a strong sense of time, and I heard that she always focuses on reviewing her rune knowledge in her mind, so she often has no expression on her face."
The whispered discussion between the two did not attract the attention of Professor Baburin. She walked to the podium and put down the textbook: "Can someone tell me the source of ancient runes and the current learning direction?"
Hermione immediately raised her hand.
"Miss, college, your name and your answer."
"Hermione Granger, from Ravenclaw, Professor," Hermione stood up quickly, "Ancient runes are a set of alphabets that originated 1,500 years ago. The first wizards discovered some special symbols that could have a wonderful connection with magic power when exploring magic. With the development of wizards, symbols gradually developed into alphabets.
Hermione took a breath and continued: "It comes from the German word Raunen, which means "secret talk". These symbols are believed to contain mysterious factors, and each letter is a hieroglyph with a deep meaning. Of course, due to various historical factors, runes are now half-lost. We are now learning this kind of characters mainly to study the magic manuscripts of ancient runes, so as to obtain some information about ancient wizards. At the same time, the field of alchemy also relies on runes. However, modern wizards can borrow ancient runes The ancient magic cast is very rare as far as I know."
Professor Babling stretched out his hand to signal Hermione to sit down: "Very well, Miss Granger, five points for Ravenclaw."
"Miss Granger's words are accurate enough. This is the common understanding of ancient runes in the mainstream academic circles. It is also destined that your course is mainly a theoretical course."
Many girls made regretful voices. They originally thought that Professor Baburin's youthfulness came from an ancient magic that they had never heard of.
Professor Bablin ignored these voices. She just opened the textbook quietly and said at a very fast speed: "I understand the thoughts of many people. You want to learn gorgeous, powerful, and magical ancient magic, so what is the reality?"
She pulled out a stiff smile: "The reality is that the ancient magic you can think of really exists."
The students in the audience widened their eyes in surprise.
"But that requires very in-depth research. I look forward to your future studies to discover mysterious areas that I have never discovered. I will be proud of you."
"But now, please turn to the third page of the book."
Sean flipped through the book, and saw the epigraph on this page:
Runes are regular scripts.
Professor Bablin patted the textbook: "Just like the preface, before formally studying, I hope you can understand the key point of the runes, which is [rules]."
"Runes are rules, and their learning, use and even research must follow the rules. This rule means the fixed flow of magic symbols, and the different effects of ancient magic come from the combination and arrangement of different symbols."
"Also, does anyone know why ancient runes are associated with alchemy?"
No one in the classroom raised their hands, and even Hermione was a little unsure.
Shawn's hand went up.
"Also, give me your name and your answer, sir."
"Sean Wallep, Ravenclaw, professor," Sean hesitated a little, but still gave his own answer, "Both have one thing in common, that is, equivalent exchange."
"Correct, Mr. Wallop, five points for Ravenclaw." Professor Bablin nodded expressionlessly and motioned Sean to sit down.
She continued: "Equivalent exchange, this is the characteristic of ancient runes, or ancient magic using ancient runes. We all know that magic is a miracle, but unlike modern spells, ancient magic is under the rules and has no upper limit."
There is no upper limit... Everyone is chewing on the meaning of this sentence.
"In addition to the arrangement and combination of symbols, there is also the output of magic power that affects the power of ancient magic. If your magic power is large enough, it can produce a strong enough effect. I think you should have doubts now. There is no upper limit. This seems to be a good thing for magic, so why is ancient magic lost seriously?"
Everyone nodded.
"On the one hand, the evolution of characters has caused a gap in information, and on the other hand, it is because of [there is no upper limit]."
"In history, countless wizards were drained of their magic power when using this unstable and powerful force. The output of magic power in ancient magic is very difficult to judge. Evacuating the magic power often means serious damage to vitality or even death."
"Then, the magic wand that can increase the power of the spell and calm the instability of the spell appeared. On the basis of the wand, the safer spell, that is, the modern spell that we are learning to use now began to develop, and the ancient magic also did not fall."
"This danger is also the reason why Hogwarts only allows me to give theoretical classes."
"Rules, equivalent exchange, these are the two key points I hope you will remember when learning ancient runes."
Professor Bablin had not waited for everyone to digest this sentence before she cast her eyes on the textbook.
"Now, let's start with the sounds and meanings of the alphabet."
Sean subconsciously looked at the alphabet, and then that familiar feeling of dizziness surged up again.
Professor Baburin speaks fast and is used to cramming a lot of information into her words, but she has to say that her knowledge is accurate and unreserved. Just one sentence clarifies many learning points of ancient runes for students.
In the basic teaching of runes such as initials, transliteration, phonetic symbols, and meanings, she is also fast and accurate.
This put a lot of pressure on Sean to study. He stared at those symbols with a headache, trying his best to concentrate.
But it's still the same as before, it's obviously just the meaning of a magic rune, and it doesn't even involve the use of any magic power, but Sean still learns and forgets what the previous teacher taught.
It's a mess... This is the current state of Sean's head one hour after the ancient runes class started.
Damn it, two talents have no human rights, right...
Sean looked away from the alphabet with a headache, and he looked around at the people around him.
Under the sound of Professor Babulin's fast lecture, although Hermione also frowned, but looking at her non-stop quill and mumbling lips, she knew that she was quickly digesting Professor Baburin's teaching content.
Sean slightly raised his head and looked at the other students. Each of them was different, but without exception, there was a sense of urgency on their faces, but this also proved that no matter how they absorbed, they were still trying to digest the teaching content.
No one suffered from headaches and dizziness like Sean.
Professor Bablin has been teaching quickly. Except for occasionally asking everyone to stop and correct the pronunciation of a certain letter, she didn't pay attention to the situation in class at all, and she didn't notice Sean's bewilderment and loss.
However, this professor who has taught at Hogwarts for many years has rich teaching experience, which makes Sean who wants to learn but can't learn it extremely uncomfortable.
The second half of the lesson in ancient runes became a painful ordeal.
"...In the next class, I will check your mastery of the alphabet. If you have listened carefully in the class just now, or even just listened to half of the class..." Professor Babling paused, she did not look at anyone, and continued, "Then you should at least master the accurate pronunciation of more than ten letters and the specific explanation of a single pictograph."
"Study progress checks will not affect your class grades. Unless you blow up my classroom, I will give everyone enough grades to pass the class-but my final exam is very difficult. By the way, getting a p in the ancient runic exam is considered a pass, but the number of people who get d and t in the exam every year is the most of all subjects."
The exam is divided into six levels, o (excellent), e (checked expectations), a (pass), and then there are three levels of failure.
p (bad), d (very bad), t (very bad), by the way, t means troll - you and the troll's IQ are equated.
Now, Sean has almost foreseen his first t and first retake course...
Professor Bablin closed the textbook: "That's it, after class, come to me if you have any questions, you have ten minutes."
Hermione immediately took Sean's hand. She just saw Sean's painful struggle in the second half of the class, just like when the two of them were learning runes by themselves.
Squeezing away two female students who wanted to ask about the ancient magic of maintaining appearance, Hermione pulled Sean, who was rubbing his head, to the front of Professor Babling.
The professor still looked expressionless, and she looked at the two calmly: "What's the problem, Miss Granger, Mr. Wallop."
"Sean..." Hermione pushed Sean.
Shawn took a step forward, his temple still aching.
"Professor, I want to know, is it not normal to feel dizzy and have a headache when learning runes?"
Professor Bablin glanced at him blankly, then nodded: "Yes, not normal."
Sean suddenly raised his head in surprise: "Is there any way to improve it?"
"Go to Madam Pomfrey and prescribe a refreshing potion~IndoMTL.com~?"
"Dizziness and headaches when you overuse your brain are often caused by a cold, fever and lack of energy. If you don't have a cold, then I suggest you go to the infirmary for a comprehensive examination." Professor Baburin said calmly.
"Ah, you misunderstood the professor, I'm not sick or weak, I'm just not in good shape when I'm learning runes..."
Professor Bablin interrupted Sean, her gaze hidden under the glasses was as calm as water: "That can only prove that there is something wrong with your learning attitude."
Before Sean could speak, Hermione argued for him: "No, Professor, Sean is a very serious person."
"No one will have a headache when learning the basics of runes. If you are not sick, it proves that you are not serious enough." Professor Babling ignored Hermione and said to Sean.
