Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

Chapter 132 Occlumency

Improving the Vanishing Cabinet was a familiar task for Vader, and he completed the task in only half the time he expected.

Learning the Disillusionment Charm was somewhat complicated, but Wade had actually been teaching himself for a long time, and he also had a solid foundation in Transfiguration. On Saturday evening, he had finally mastered the Disillusionment Charm.

Currently, his Disillusionment Charm only changes the color, which can still be seen if you look closely, but if the magic power is strong enough, the Disillusionment Charm can also make a person completely invisible.

In addition, the Disillusionment Charm is also required to repair the Invisibility Cloak.

The expected work was completed and Vader still had one day off over the weekend.

"Perhaps you could wander around Hogsmeade? Or go on some adventures around here."

Lupin brought up his favorite activities during his student days: "There are quite a few interesting places nearby that I can serve as a guide to. If there is anything you want to buy, I can also buy it for you."

However, Vader said, "Remus, do you know the Imperius Curse?"

Lupin looked a little unnatural: "The Imperius Curse is one of the three unforgivable curses... Do you know the Unforgivable Curses?"

"I know." Wade said calmly, "The Imperius Curse, the Cruciatus Curse and the Killing Curse are the three unforgivable curses. Once used on a person, the person will be sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban."

"Now that you know that, you should understand that I will never teach you this kind of spell!"

Lupin said decisively: "These are all evil black magic, no one should learn or touch them!"

"It's getting late, you should go back to school."

He turned around to open the Vanishing Cabinet.

"Don't be so sensitive, Remus."

But Wade said, "I'm not asking you to teach me the Imperius Curse. I just want to ask, can Occlumency resist the Imperius Curse?"

Lupin knew he had misunderstood and felt a little embarrassed, but he felt that he could not blame himself for being too sensitive -

Wade wanted to learn everything and learned everything very quickly. Even though he had surpassed the level of many graduates, he still seemed unsatisfied.

That kind of greed and thirst for knowledge that seems to be never satisfied...sometimes it makes Lupin feel frightened.

After learning all the orthodox magic, will Vader turn to the more powerful black magic?
Lupin didn't know, but his sense of responsibility made him worry about it all the time.

He thought for a moment before saying, "As long as one's willpower is strong enough, one can resist the Imperius Curse. However... Occlumency does help."

In fact, Occlumency not only protects against the Imperius Curse, but also prevents possession and even the effects of Veritaserum.

The Wizengamot originally believed that Sirius might have acquired Occlumency, and even using truth serum to interrogate him could not guarantee that he was telling the truth.

Add to that the situation at the time... Sirius Black killed Peter, and he was a well-known secret keeper, but the Potters were killed by Voldemort in their own home...

In the end, Sirius Black was sent to Azkaban without trial.

Life imprisonment.

After so many years, Lupin never had the chance to ask his former friends... why...

Lupin looked dazed for a moment, then heard the voice of the student in front of him.

"I have been practicing Occlumency for a long time," said Vader. "I would like you to help me test the results."

The magic of clearing the mind is not complicated to practice, but the boundary between it and being in a daze seems unclear.

Without actually experiencing the mental infiltration of the outside world, it is difficult to confirm whether the level of one's own brain blocking skills can resist such invasion.

Lupin was silent for a moment, then asked, "Aren't you worried that I would see your memories?"

"I believe you won't mess around with my memory. And if it really involves privacy, I will use other magic to resist." Wade said.

Harry's experience in the plot tells him that if he is well prepared, offensive spells can also interrupt the brain block.

For example, the disarming spell.

"……All right."

Lupin had no reason to refuse. He took out his wand and said, "If you are ready, let's start." "Of course..." Wade also took out his wand: "Let's start."

"Three, two, one... Legilimency!"

Magic invaded... Lupin felt obvious resistance and read only a blank.

One second, two seconds...

Ten seconds later, it was like a bubble bursting, and countless images flashed by alternately...

Eating in the Great Hall…attending classes…doing homework…eating in the Great Hall…walking in the corridors of the castle with friends…doing homework…attending classes…

He interrupted the magic on his own initiative.

"You didn't resist?" Lupin asked in surprise.

Based on his understanding of Vader, the effect of his Occlumency shouldn't only last for a dozen seconds.

"If your mind is completely clear, doesn't that tell others that there is a problem?"

Wade endured the pain and said, "I tried not to recall anything, but then I thought... it might be better to cover the important memories with invalid ones..."

Lupin was speechless for a moment.

Vader was unsure: "Did I overdo it?"

He remembered that Snape was the master of Occlumency and was undercover in Voldemort's place. When Voldemort wanted to check his memory, could Snape still let him see a blank?

He would have to let the Dark Lord read what he wanted instead of simply resisting.

Vader has been working towards this.

"No." After a long while, Lupin finally spoke: "Ordinary wizards usually cannot practice to this level... But if you can learn to overwrite memories, or even forge memories, it would be better."

"But we have to change the way we practice."

He took a bright red apple from the cupboard and placed it on the table, saying, "Look at it and remember this picture. Then hide this memory and don't let me find it."

Vader stared at the apple.

Lupin asked, "What fruit do you like?"

Wade said casually: "Watermelon... mango and cherry are also good..."

"Legitimate!" Lupin suddenly attacked.

Eating in the auditorium... attending classes... doing homework... eating... attending classes... flying on a broomstick... a tapestry with a troll... reading a book... a red apple...

The red spell suddenly knocked Lupin's wand away, and Vader staggered and almost fell.

My head is buzzing and hurts badly.

Lupin helped him sit down and poured him a cup of hot chocolate.

"That's very good. It's amazing that you can achieve this level at the beginning." Lupin praised.

Wade drank the chocolate, which seemed to contain some strange magic that soothed his throbbing temples.

"I couldn't resist." Wade sighed and said disappointedly.

He knew that he had subconsciously tried to hide the Room of Requirement, and then the Apple was exposed.

"Don't be so hard on yourself, Vader." Lupin said softly, "Such difficult magic cannot be learned in one go. It requires a long period of practice."

Vader rested for a while, put down the cup, and took out his wand again.

"Come again!"
