Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Chapter 118 The centenarian's robbery

After the dementors were honest, life in Hogwarts returned to peace once again.

Classes, Quidditch, and classes are plain without any ripples.

Ike implemented his plan step by step. Although his growth was slow, his success was solid.

In mid-December, many of Ike's researches achieved phased victories, and he finally took time out to read the "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Dark Arts" sent to his door by Dumbledore.

This is a black magic book with a lot of references to the soul and immortality, most of which are based on the many achievements of the despicable Haierbo.The compiler of the book is obviously a paranoid admirer of Haierbo, and there is a lot of personality worship mixed with him between the lines.

The content inside is too evil and dark, including a large number of human experiments. The results of various experiments made Ike feel his scalp numb and his three views ruined.

It is hard to imagine that many of the existing humanoid creatures in the magic world were cultivated as tools of war.

In comparison, the Horcrux is considered a relatively mild method.

The next day, after reading "Secrets of Advanced Dark Arts", Ike took the book to the principal's office.This thing is too distorted, people will really go crazy after watching it for a long time.

"What's the matter, Mr. Strider."

Dumbledore didn't know what he was dealing with, and was sitting in front of his gorgeous desk writing.

"I'll return the book, Professor." Ike put the book on the table, "I don't think this book is suitable for me."

"Oh? I thought you'd have to watch for a while longer." Dumbledore put down the quill in his hand, and pushed off the glasses on his nose.

"One time is enough."

Without saying any more, Ike has already clearly expressed his attitude. Believe it or not, Dumbledore didn't care a long time ago.The rigor of an unbreakable oath is stronger than a blood oath.

"Then don't bother me, professor, I have classes to attend later."

"Well, Mr. Strayer, it's not wrong for students to focus on learning." Dumbledore watched Ike walk out of the door, and suddenly said when he was approaching the door, "By the way, listen Fleurs said something very interesting, and I got an old friend for it, and he happened to be coming to school to see his grandson."

Looking at the time, he continued, "There is still time, I think you can go to Severus."

"I will, Professor." Nodding, Ike left.

After leaving the principal's office, he went straight to the ground, knocked on the door, and Ike pushed the door open and entered.

Snape's office didn't have the usual gloomy feeling, it was brightly lit by many candles.A thin gray-haired old man was standing next to Ellie, holding a wand and poking it from time to time, while Snape stood beside her, looking a little respectful.

"I think you should learn about etiquette, Strider." Noticing Ike's entry, Snape's face instantly changed back to his usual cold expression.

"Sorry, Professor." Ike knew that he had to be cowardly when he should, and he was more interested in this skinny old man than Snape.

After such a long time, Snape still has a deep understanding of Ike. Looking at his appearance, he can understand what he is thinking.

"This is Mr. Scamander..."

"Newt Scamander?" Ike's eyes brightened instantly, "Mr. Newt Scamander, the author of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?"

"Oh? Do kids nowadays know me as an old man?" Newt turned around. "I always thought that no one knew me anymore. My grandson always said that I was out of date."

"Of course not, you are the greatest magizoologist in modern times." Snape said hastily.

"That's right, that's right." Ike nodded again and again, pointing to Ellie and asked, "Are you here to see her?"

"Oh, yes, that's right." Newt's interest suddenly rose, "It's hard to imagine that I actually saw this magical little guy with my own eyes."

"This is really a big discovery! Did you know that there is a snake in Africa..."

Newt gushed about a similar incident he witnessed once while hunting for magical beasts in Africa.

"...It's a pity that it's a magical creature, which is completely different from this little guy." Newt poked Ellie again, "There are magic waves in her body!"

"So, Mr. Scamander, can you cure her?" Ike asked.

"This... I can try." Newt was silent for a while, "After all, I have never encountered such a thing, and there is no record of a situation like her."

"But in the end, there should be no problem."

"In my opinion, she should be..."

Newt said a lot, and Ike was taken aback by what he said.A brief overview is that Ellie hurt her vitality deeply when she gave birth to the red rose. Although Ike's treatment allowed her to survive this process and thus received the favor of magic, she is an ordinary nightingale after all. Magic did not completely transform her.

"...So, if..., then..., her problem should be solved."

"Well, right now, we can just speed up the transformation of her by magic power..." Ike thought of a transformation method mentioned in "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Black Magic". Steps should be fine.

"Thank you, Mr. Scamander." Ike touched Ellie's little head, "I can finally make you better, Ellie..."

"Wait, wait!" Newt nodded in agreement at first, but suddenly came back to his senses, "You want to save her yourself?"

"Yup?"

"Do you have a way?"

"I have a little idea..."

"That won't work." Newt suddenly stiffened, his thin body straightened, "You are still a student, and learning is the most important thing, let me do it."

Saying that, without giving Ike a chance, he ran out with the bird stand in hand, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ike was a little dumbfounded, and quickly followed out, but he didn't see Newt at all.Scratching his head back, he asked Snape in a dazed expression, "What he just...should have been a robbery, right?"

"I agree with Mr. Scamander, he is more sure than you." Snape resumed his cold look, flipped up his robe and sat down on the chair, "As Mr. Scamander said, You should focus on your studies, Stryder."

"Okay, professor." Ike nodded subconsciously.In this situation, even if he was unwilling, it would be useless, and with Newt, a magizoologist, taking action, it would be much more reliable than his conjecture.
