Harry Potter: A Certain Ancient Rune Professor of Hogwarts (TL)

Chapter 444



In the evening, Harry knocked on the door of the Ancient Runes office and saw Professor Hap holding a book and reading it with great interest.

“Professor Hap?”

Felix looked up, the book in his hand silently disappeared, which caused Harry’s eyelids to jump.

But he had grown accustomed to this kind of strange sight, so he sat down with the professor on the other side of the couch. And with a wave of the professor’s finger, an enchanted book flew down from the shelf and landed precisely in his hand.

“Professor, I want to ask you a question.” Harry didn’t rush to open the book.

“About what?”

Harry told Felix about his unintentional blocking of information from the hurdle during the second task, and finally asked with an expectant tone, “Is this an entry-level of Occlumency?”

Felix thought about it, “This can only mean that we are on the right path … entry-level of occlumency does not simply mean that you are aware or can resist external invasion with good preparation, as it is more about improving your sensitivity and self-protection, allowing the mind to spontaneously shield your mind from external influences, including in your sleep. Besides that, it can also effectively strengthen your mind …”

“I see, Professor.”

Harry proceeded to read the book he had, although the professor did not acknowledge his entry-level occlumency, but that was probably because he was expecting too much, Harry thought, I fought off at least one invasion … maybe more than once, he hadn’t had a nightmare in a long time.

He flipped to a new page, and the page featured a fluffy, orange orb that looked pretty cute. But the next second, he felt itchy all over, more so than when he had eaten Fred and George’s canary cookies and faded his feathers, next he couldn’t resist reaching out to scratch–

“Ahem!” Felix coughed, flipping over a page of the book in front of Harry, and then he continued to read that disappeared book again that he didn’t notice appearing again.

Harry withdrew his hand, flushed, and fought the sensation, but the “itch” felt worse than the “torture”, at least he knew the feeling now is fake, because he is comfortably sitting on the professor’s couch, but he can’t help but suspect that the professor had secretly cast a Tickling Charm …

Fortunately, the remaining reason kept Harry from asking, and he tried to empty his mind, but it didn’t always work, and when he got up to leave as he walked down the castle corridor, he could still feel the “phantom tickle” on his body.

Maybe it is the residual effects of the enchanted book, he thought, it is best not to take a hot bath today.

Harry took a deep breath, and the irritation in his mind got suppressed, this is a trick he figured out, when he encounters negative emotions he can try to use the Occlumency to block that emotion and then divert his attention.

Only he is not skilled yet, and often can’t remember to use it … in stressful situations

The weather became a little sunnier in March, but it was closely followed by windy weather. During the first week of March, at least five days were passed with howling winds, and Felix could see the flags on the Quidditch pitch whistling as he watched Beauxbatons’ carriage and Ilvermorny’s school statues through his window.

Felix and Valen huddled on the couch, looking idle.

He was too lazy to be interested in anything these days, apart from spending most of his time reading the Book of Runes; he even only went to dueling class – which had become an elective – when it was his turn.

From time to time, he could hear some interesting news. Professor Moody liked to arrange people who disliked each other as opponents, “It will inspire your courage and wisdom!” he proclaimed.

The effect is obvious. At the end of each dueling class, the students looked most miserable in appearance.

The transformation of the right index finger is slower than he expected, as it has only just passed one more finger in the past two weeks. He tried to speed it up, but nothing affected it, good or bad, as if everything was an illusion, but he knew the reason he didn’t succeed was because he hadn’t thought about the possibility of integrating the runes into his body before …

But this type of possibility naturally never existed in the past.

Felix is certain that he is undergoing a healthy, beneficial transformation, as evidenced by his lazy behaviour of late – his mind and magic are not giving him any sense of alarm.

At that moment, the communication mirror on the shelf rang out, and he couldn’t help but get a headache at the sound of the distinctive voice. “Valen, fetch it for me.” Felix yawned and said, Valen who was examining a gold butterfly-shaped brooch (from Future World Shop 7), could not help but look at him when she heard the words, “Kiki?”

“I don’t want to move … just to train your sense of smell.” Felix said wilfully.

“Kiki (what do you want)?”

” Andys’s communication mirror, that unkempt uncle.” Felix casually described him, and Niffler immediately thought of the fool who performed coin magic in front of her and as she recalled his smell.

Valen huffed and moved her fluffy body to jump off the couch and found the communication mirror from the shelf. Then she slipped back into the couch as she found a comfortable position again to lie in the fold of Felix’s arm, and continued to gawk as she raised the butterfly brooch in her hand.

Felix picked up the mirror, he looked through the messages on it, most of them were the sales statistics of ” The Strange Adventures of Little Wizard Mick”, he read it a few times and did not care. The latter were various variations of inquiring about his plans for the new book.

Uh …

Felix scratched his head, he did consider publishing a small booklet about runes, but the style of the book is not meant to be in line with the comic book. However, it is possible to consider an extra comic book to accompany the booklet, telling the story of young wizard Mick when he started to go to school.

While he had nothing to do, he thought about it in his head.

“The plot of the comic is relatively simple, that is, the story of Mick’s third grade when he came into contact with the ancient runes and followed the professor to learn, which is considered as a short story.”

“As for the booklet, I want it to have more science and communication attributes, well, first, an introduction to the history of runes, this part does not need to be too much, just a few hundred words … After flipping a page, you will see a series of dynamic pictures of ancient magic… … To be fair, add a picture of an old scholar translating the manuscript …

The second part is the development and evolution of the runic language, which also needs to be simplified, no one wants to read a long-winded essay …

The next part is the main part, need to explain the division between runes and ancient magic clearly … uh, I’d better find simple ancient magic as an example to dissect, preferably one that is easy to get into practice,” Felix’s expression perked up a bit when he thought about it and said. “Just illumination magic.”

Felix lay on the sofa and mulled it over while looking at the time, there is a dueling class this evening, he hasn’t been there for almost a month, and he wondered what surprises these little wizards would bring him?
