Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 180 The Fear Curse

There was no sound around the restricted area. Dumbledore lowered his head and thought about something, while Hagrid subconsciously touched his chest, as if to confirm whether he was really still alive.

"What did you mean just now that Lu Wei thought I was dead, that's why he went crazy?"

Hagrid scratched his hair, feeling very confused.

"Hmm... that should be the case."

Kyle nodded, looked at Dumbledore and asked, "Professor, do you think someone used a confusion spell on Lu Wei?"

The magic resistance of the three-headed dog is very high. Hitting it with ordinary spells is similar to scratching it, but that is also different.

Just like Dumbledore just now, Lu Wei is no different from a weak doll in front of him.

A stun spell fell down and fell asleep.

"It's possible." Dumbledore said after pondering for a moment, "But it doesn't look like a simple confusion spell to me."

Kyle frowned and said, "You mean, besides the confusion spell, there is another spell on Lu Wei?"

"That's right, and it's still a black magic."

Dumbledore took two steps forward, bent down and looked at Lu Wei carefully, the tip of his nose was almost touching its fur.

Then Dumbledore tapped Lu Wei's middle head with his wand again, and murmured, "It's the same as I thought... the Fear Curse."

"The Fear Curse?" Hagrid was taken aback for a moment, obviously hearing this spell for the first time.

"Yes, strictly speaking, it is not a traditional black magic, but it only appeared 50 years ago, and you probably haven't heard of it."

Dumbledore stood up and asked, "Kyle, do you know Boggart?"

"Of course, Professor." Kyle said, "It's a shape-shifting magical creature that can see through people's hearts and become what they fear most."

"The inspiration for this black magic comes from Boggarts?" Dumbledore put away his wand, and said calmly in a dark color: "It can create illusions, so that people under this spell can always see what they fear most. thing."

"It seems that someone cleverly combined the confusion spell and phobia, which made Lu Wei what he is now."

Kyle nodded thoughtfully, he probably understood what Dumbledore meant.

The Fear Curse made Lu Wei see Hagrid's "death" again and again, gradually torturing his spirit, while the Confusion Curse made him see everyone turned into a "murderer".

Kyle felt a little rejoiced.

If Dumbledore hadn't discovered Lu Wei's problem in time, if Lu Wei broke through the gate and ran into the castle...

Kyle shivered, and didn't dare to think about it anymore. It was foreseeable that it would be an irreversible disaster.

You must know that almost all the professors are on the Quidditch pitch at this moment, and there are only some students who are not interested in Quidditch left in the castle.

If they met Lu Wei who was crazy, they might be torn to pieces after meeting each other.

If this kind of thing really happened, I'm afraid Hogwarts will be closed because of it.

Fortunately... Dumbledore discovered it in time, and the worst situation did not occur.

Kyle took a deep breath and asked, "Professor, do you have any solution?"

"Is there a solution?" Dumbledore's eyes flashed, "It's very simple, as long as..."

"No, Dumbledore!"

At this moment, Hagrid suddenly burst into tears, ran to Dumbledore, and begged, "Please...don't kill Lu Wei...he's a good boy...please..."

"I think you misunderstood, Hagrid." Dumbledore looked up at the crying Hagrid, patted his arm and comforted him: "I never said I would kill Lu Wei."

"Really...really?" Hagrid sobbed, clutching his chest.

"Of course." Dumbledore smiled, "I promise."

Although it is indeed the easiest and most convenient way to directly kill the three-headed dog Lu Wei, Dumbledore never thought of doing this.

Because in the whole thing, Lu Wei is the most innocent one.

After Hagrid gradually calmed down, Dumbledore continued: "Coincidentally, before I became the headmaster, I just studied the Fear Curse for a while, and I still understand it."

"But now, Kyle...can I trouble you to accompany Hagrid to the school hospital?"

Dumbledore blinked and said, "I think he needs a good night's sleep now."

Kyle nodded and walked out of the room.

Apparently, Dumbledore didn't want them involved in what was to come.

Hagrid also followed behind him step by step and turning his head three times.

"Oh, I almost forgot..." At this moment, Dumbledore's voice came from the room again.

"Fifty points for Hufflepuff."

……

After leaving the restricted area, Kyle accompanied Hagrid to the school hospital.

Originally, Hagrid didn't like going there very much, but now he didn't care so much.

As long as he thought of Lu Wei's appearance before, Hagrid felt as uncomfortable as a needle prick in his heart, which made him unable to concentrate at all, and almost fell down the stairs several times.

Dumbledore was right, he did need a good night's sleep.

After arriving at the school hospital, Kyle explained his purpose to Madam Pomfrey, but for some reason, he didn't say what happened in the restricted area, only that Hagrid was stimulated.

Madam Pomfrey glanced at Hagrid who was standing there with his head bowed, and didn't ask any further questions. She just took out her wand and enlarged a bed in the corner.

Then she walked to a cabinet, took out a bottle labeled "Water of Life and Death", and poured all the potion inside into a wooden barrel about the size of a Quaffle.

Madam Pomfrey poured out a total of three bottles, and then handed Hagrid the wooden barrel filled with the water of life and death.

"Lie down on the bed over there, and drink it."

Hagrid took the barrel and walked over in a staggering manner, bumping several beds on the way.

This made Madam Pomfrey very unhappy.

Fortunately, Kyle arranged those beds in time, so she didn't say anything, but left after a few words of advice.

Not long after, there were bursts of snoring in the school hospital.

Kyle finally breathed a sigh of relief and closed the curtain beside the hospital bed.

After walking out of the school hospital, Kyle walked quickly across the courtyard, looked up at the direction of the Quidditch pitch, and sighed faintly.

There was no one flying above the field, and he could vaguely see a large group of young wizards walking towards the castle.

All of this clearly shows that the game is over!
Kyle rubbed his forehead, he had already expected this result.

It seemed to be like this from last year, whenever there was an important Quidditch match, something always happened to him.

I thought it would change this year, but I didn't expect it to be the same.
