Chapter 205 Playing with People’s Hearts Is Another Kind of Magic
The green light from the tip of the staff spurted out, and Grindelwald hit himself with the death curse.
In Sean's disbelieving gaze, the old but still powerful body opposite fell straight down.
"Bang!" The body collided with the floor, and the dull sound echoed in the office.
"No, it's just for teaching. There's no need to engage in such a big battle, right?" The corner of Sean's mouth twitched.
Of course he didn't believe that Grindelwald would commit suicide. This was probably what the other party just mentioned about how to deceive and how to distinguish the true motives of others.
It's just that this old man's teaching method is a bit too rough...
Sean stood there for a moment, but Grindelwald still didn't stand up on the floor.
He stepped forward helplessly, muttering "Sir, do I have to pull you up?", while reaching out his hand to pull the other person up.
Grindelwald's hands were already cold, his eyes were blank, and his pupils had completely lost focus.
Sean pulled twice, but the other party still didn't move.
"Sir, how many minutes have you been dead? You didn't get cold so quickly..." Sean said helplessly.
However, Grindelwald seemed ready to carry out the joke to the end. Sean stayed there for more than ten minutes, but there was still no movement from the other party.
"Sir, a young man's time is very precious, and it won't take me that long to come over and get the timetable, right?" Sean tried to shout loudly, but Grindelwald was still lying there straight.
"What the hell..." Sean muttered and squatted down. He looked at the other person's lifeless body.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open.
Vita Rozier appeared at the office door.
"Lord Grindelwald, I have something to do..." She just raised her head and spoke, but stayed where she was.
In front of her, Grindelwald's body had made no sound, and Sean was poking at the other's body with his hands in boredom.
"You...you! What did you do!" Vita's eyes instantly filled with blood, and her face and body were trembling.
"No...Professor Rosier, Mr. Grindelwald is not dead, he is just joking with me..." Sean did not expect such an accident to happen, so he quickly stood up and explained quickly.
But the middle-aged woman opposite immediately lost all reason. She took out her wand and fired a magic spell instantly.
Wait, are you serious? !
Sean quickly turned his body and was just a little bit hit by the curse.
"Boom!" The magic spell blasted open the lattice floor-to-ceiling windows at the back, splattering glass shards everywhere, and the cold wind of Austria's night roared in.
"Calm down! Professor!"
Vita had no intention of listening to him, and the curses followed.
Crazy, crazy! Damn old man, aren't you awake yet? !
Sean explained the current situation loudly while avoiding the opponent's powerful spell.
Wait a minute, that's not right... Sean muttered in his mind as he escaped a spell.
Vita Rozier was Grindelwald's absolute confidant. She had just been at the dinner and she should have known that Grindelwald would lead her away to talk.
And she respected Grindelwald so much that she came in without knocking even though she knew he was visiting?
In addition, her first reaction should be to see if Grindelwald on the ground could be saved...
Damn...this weird old man...
Sean stuck his head out and shouted: "Sir, isn't it appropriate to become Professor Rozier?"
As soon as the words fell, Vita Rosier, who was still full of madness, suddenly calmed down her expression, her whole body twisted up, and then turned into a smiling Grindelwald.
Sure enough... Sean stood up from behind his desk, the corner of his mouth twitching.
Grindelwald walked over with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.
"It's okay, whether it's the ability to avoid spells or basic logical deductions, Sean, I'm glad to see you are willing to use your smart brain more."
For the first time, Sean rolled his eyes so gracelessly. He sat down on his chair and said angrily: "Mr. Grindelwald, can your teaching methods be more normal?"
Grindelwald smiled and sat down next to him. He stroked his beard proudly: "I have always felt that the most important way to improve teaching effectiveness is to leave a deep impression."
"Thank you." Sean was speechless.
"This is what I just told you, deception and motivation, how to deceive people and how to distinguish lies can all start from the emotional aspect," Grindelwald said without any embarrassment, "Because of our previous interactions, Plus your wisdom, so you won’t be deceived by me, but what if it’s someone else? We can use this situation to achieve a certain goal of our own.”
He waved his hand, and the devastated office returned to its original state, and his own body disappeared from the ground.
"Sir, you have achieved your goal. I am really impressed..." Sean sighed and said, "But there is no need to die for so long, right?"
Grindelwald frowned in displeasure: "Do you know why it took me so long to show up?"
"Because you're too busy?"
"No, because you didn't yell. You have to understand that over a hundred years old is the age when you love to play. You should satisfy my desire to perform." Grindelwald said seriously, "By the way, I will teach you another point. Learn to observe words and emotions.”
Sean: "..."
Okay, I understand...
Grindelwald was still talking nonstop: "And if you want to achieve the effect just now, you also need to understand the importance of another thing. That is - power."
"I can use magic spells to deceive your senses. This is my strength. As the principal of Nurmengard, I have the freedom to apparate within the school - so I can teleport outside and transform. This is that power."
He smiled and opened his hands: "Child, to play with people's hearts requires not only wisdom, but also strength - similarly, this can help you leave safely when the deception fails."
Sean nodded thoughtfully. He actually understood what Grindelwald said, but this was the first time he heard such a detailed and vivid explanation.
I have to say that I have benefited a lot - of course, I have also been frightened a lot.
"I'll teach you a little spell by the way," Grindelwald raised his wand, "Avada Kedavra!"
The green light hit the unsuspecting Sean, and then Sean saw a layer of green light emerging from his hands, and at the same time, a warm current began to flow in his body.
"Is it interesting?" Grindelwald smiled and crossed his legs, "For the same spell, just change the gestures and pronunciation emphasis, and at the same time, bring joy in your heart, and this spell will become a mild healing spell. The magic spell of effectiveness – great for colds.”
It's true... Sean stretched out his hands and found that the green light on his body had disappeared, but the warmth was still flowing.
"Sir, did you improve this yourself?" Sean asked curiously.
"No," Grindelwald shook his head, "To be precise, the Death Curse is an improved spell, and the Healing Curse is the original one. Its original intention is indeed to destroy, but the object of destruction is not the soul, but the soul. disease."
The Death Curse actually has such an origin? Sean waved the spell in surprise and released the spell according to Grindelwald's demonstration just now.
The green light hit the ground in front. There was no explosion, only a flash of green light.
"Well, you learn very quickly," Grindelwald looked at with a smile, "But don't use it too often - otherwise it won't be effective when you scare people."
"I understand." Sean nodded.
He and Grindelwald had the same idea. This wand was good for scaring people - it could even be mixed with a truly soul-destroying death curse after being used many times.
Grindelwald stood up: "I think that's enough for today's class. You need some time to digest - Sean, think carefully about everything I just said. Remember, wizards play with magic, and only Magic that does not require strength is to play with people's hearts. Many times, the power we can use is not limited to ourselves."
"Besides," he winked at Sean, "as a coward like me, you don't like to take risks, right?"
Sean nodded, but he didn't understand the meaning of the other person's last sentence. It didn't look like Grindelwald was a coward...
Maybe there's something else hidden in it... Sean thought.
He stood up and said: "I have benefited a lot today, thank you for your teaching, sir, shall I go back now?"
"Go ahead, by the way," he handed over a pile of parchment, "This is your class schedule. Your dormitory is at the east end of the first floor. Remember to distribute it to your classmates when you get back."
"Okay, sir." Sean took the pile of parchment and glanced at it, and then he was surprised to find that the top one had more than a dozen spells written on it that he had never seen before.
Grindelwald stretched out a finger in front of his lips and gestured: "Don't be surprised, these are just some practical spells, such as the disembodiment spell I used before and the color-changing spell to change the color of the spell. They are not harmful. power, but I think a wizard should have knowledge in all aspects - unfortunately, most of these spells are troublesome and difficult to learn, and today's students prefer explosion spells and the like."
He kept smiling: "Go back. These spells are very difficult, but this is just a small test. If you can master them in this half term, I will teach you other things."
"For example-" Grindelwald's body twisted and turned into Dumbledore's appearance.
Not only the appearance, but also the tone, tone, and movements are exactly the same, "For example, my transfiguration, kid."
Sean's heart beat violently twice, Grindelwald's transformation!
This is truly heaven-defying magic!
Among those rare and innate talents, Disguise Magus is a talent that can change one's appearance.
However, Metamorphmagus can only change his face, and the complete transformation of his body and voice can only be achieved by Polyjuice Potion, except for Grindelwald!
This is too precious... Sean looked down at the spells with hot eyes. He wanted to be polite to show his gentlemanly demeanor, but this smelled too good...
'Dumbledore' waved his hand gently: "Go back to sleep. I wish you sweet dreams, child."
"Oh - okay, good night, sir." Sean, who was feeling hot in his heart, glanced at the other party reluctantly, and then left.
After Sean left for a long time, Grindelwald returned to his own appearance. He looked at his hands and said slowly to himself: "What a good student... Albus, I finally understand. Why do you insist on leaving the future to him to decide... It's so similar, so similar..."
He smiled self-deprecatingly: "However, Albus, your thoughts are still too gentle... Regardless of whether the 'guilt' is released or not, the wizarding world needs a new atmosphere..."
…
Nurmengard does not have the winding and moving stairs like Hogwarts. Sean quickly returned to the residence of the students of Hogwarts. When he walked in, those few were selected. The student representative has returned and is telling everyone about Nurmengard's school rules in the common room.
"...You are not allowed to be late for every class, and violators will be deducted three points; you are not allowed to go out at night, and violators will be deducted ten points. Keep your wand by your side at all times. If you are caught without it, you will be deducted ten points."
A Ravenclaw boy with short gray hair and blue eyes was explaining the school rules. That was fourth grader Raoul Francois, a senior with a good personality, one of the very few students who was not scolded in Potions class, and Sean had accidentally heard one of his secrets.
This guy muttered to himself in the cubicle when he was going to the toilet: "Merlin bless me and let me get a Hufflepuff girlfriend before the .ls exam."
Do I need to limit myself to colleges when looking for a girlfriend? Is this an obsession?
Raoul finally spread his hands: "There are more than a dozen school rules, not many, but as long as you get ten points, you have to go to solitary confinement - believe me, you definitely don't want to go to the Nurmengard solitary room, where the trophies are rubbed." Cleaning the Owlery is much worse.”
The students looked at each other. It seemed that Nurmengard was very strict.
Percy, who was recording school rules on the side, saw Sean walking in.
"Sean, why are you back so late?"
"Oh, Mr. Grindelwald is very enthusiastic..."
"It does look like that - by the way, is this the curriculum? Leave the Gryffindor copy to me," Percy said.
"I didn't deliberately divide it. I think it's OK for everyone to share it with each other." Sean said.
This is Sean's little thought. The four houses of Hogwarts are too distinct in many aspects. Although the houses are different, they are students of the same school after all, especially now that they are still in foreign schools. At this time, they must unite. , so Sean wants to slowly eliminate the distinction between houses in the minds of Hogwarts students.
The key is that this time there are no idiots like Crabgoyle in Slytherin. The elite snakes have all come out of their holes. Sean thinks that he can try to unite everyone.
He walked to the field and took the initiative to hand a stack of course schedules to a blond girl from Slytherin.
"Miss Vieri? Can you help distribute it?" Sean smiled.
Vieri was stunned for a moment. After a moment of hesitation, she took the stack of course schedules.
Sean made a point of giving her the entire fourth-year class schedule so that she would have to talk to people from the other three houses.
He followed the same pattern and found other Slytherin students, the ones who were usually not sarcastic. As a result, the immobile Slytherins began to shuttle in the lounge.
Seeing the atmosphere in the venue go from being uncomfortable at the beginning to the people at the back taking the initiative to chat with Slytherin, Sean, who had been watching all this, smiled secretly.
Just think of it as the first step...
