Hogwarts: I'm the only cultivator here!

"what!"

These words immediately caused an uproar among the crowd in the tavern, because in the magical world, besides wizards, there are actually a considerable number of Squibs, who are people with magical talent but unable to cast spells.

Now, with a divine book that can not only boost a wizard's magical level but also turn a Squib into a true wizard, it's impossible for these people not to have some ideas.

The Death Eaters in the crowd had their eyes light up when they heard the news, because the reason they chose to lie low was because their strength was not strong enough, and their master had not yet officially returned and recovered to his peak condition.

"If we can snatch this book and present it to our master, then the day when we rule the magical world will not be far off."

While everyone was fantasizing about what would happen after they received the book, one person was the first to come to their senses and ask the question that everyone was so concerned about.

"Where is that book now? At the Ministry of Magic? Or...Hogwarts?"

The moment the question was posed, everyone perked up their ears again, and the tavern became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The man was momentarily startled by the atmosphere. More importantly, he actually wanted the book too, but he couldn't resist showing off, so he mentioned it. He really didn't want to say where the book was, because saying it would create many more competitors.

However, looking at the gazes of the group of people in front of him, if he were to utter a single word of refusal, it would be difficult to say whether he could even leave this tavern today. So he swallowed hard and said in a low voice, "It is said that the Ministry of Magic made a copy of the book after obtaining Black's consent, since it was originally on Black."

"However, according to my friend's third aunt's brother's girlfriend's ex-boyfriend, neither the one Black had nor the one in the Ministry of Magic was the real original; they were both simplified versions. The real original is still at Hogwarts."

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

"Holy crap! What did I just say?!"

The man suddenly realized what he had said and quickly covered his mouth, but it was too late. Some people noticed his expression and their eyes flickered, while others quietly got up and left the tavern.

No matter how much the man regretted it, it was too late, because the news had already been spread. Unless he killed everyone here, the news would likely spread throughout the entire magic world in a very short time.

While everyone was busy with their own plans, someone asked an extremely explosive question.

"I don't really care whether the book you mentioned is real or not. After all, even if it were, it would be difficult for me to obtain such a book given my abilities and family background. So, I'm more concerned about one thing: why would your friend's third aunt's brother's girlfriend's ex-boyfriend... tell you all this?"

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Upon hearing this question, even those Death Eaters who had been slightly influenced by magic to reveal information they didn't want to say, and who were about to inform their master Voldemort, couldn't help but stop in their tracks and look at him with curiosity.

Big Mouth A: (；'A`)

"Gulu~"

"Can I... not say? This is my... private matter."

"no!"

A chorus of rejections rang out. Clearly, at this moment, the answer to the question was more appealing to them than the book itself. After all, gossip is human nature, something even wizards cannot avoid.

"Okay, actually, my buddy's third aunt's brother's girlfriend's ex-boyfriend met my buddy at a dinner party. But later, their girlfriends couldn't accept it, and they broke up. I saw him all alone and felt sorry for him, so I went to comfort him, and then..."

"Oh~~"

Upon hearing this, everyone instantly smiled with realization, their gazes towards Big Mouth A filled with amusement. However, many also cast their blessings, since even in the magical world, same-sex relationships are not accepted by the mainstream.

Of course, some people are still confused by the complicated relationships between the people in the topic and can't get out of it.

A few days later, news of Black's greatly increased strength due to a magical book spread throughout the wizarding world. However, by this time, Black had already returned to Hogwarts from the Ministry of Magic, so these people were destined to return empty-handed.

As for the one from the Ministry of Magic, it is indeed genuine, but that one was only used for record-keeping, so it only contains the beginning. More importantly, that one is the version before Ye Feng translated it. In other words, even if they were given the entire book, they probably wouldn't be able to understand it without studying in China for several years.

As a result, the topic gradually lost its popularity, but some people, after obtaining a copy of the Ministry of Magic's version through various means, became determined to get their hands on the original Hogwarts version.

"Although this is only a small part of the content, even this little bit has given me a lot of inspiration. If I could get the original, I could not only quickly recover to my peak, but I would also be close to becoming the most powerful wizard in the history of the magic world."

Someone at Hogwarts who was dozing off: Oh right, Voldemort, come quick! You're just one step away from becoming the greatest wizard in the wizarding world.

Chapter 184 Ye Feng: Rumors? No, they're true!

Passerby A: "Hey, have you heard? It's said that Black got a magical book that grants him immense power, even greater than Dumbledore's."

"More importantly, it's said that the book Black has is only a simplified version; the original one is still at Hogwarts!"

Passerby B: "Who told you that?"

Passerby A: "A friend of my father's, who was supposedly at the scene."

Passersby B, C, and D: →_→

"Excuse me, where are you right now?"

Passerby A: "Hogwarts, huh?"

B, C, and D: "Oh~ I thought you weren't at Hogwarts."

Passerby A: [○?｀Д?? ○]

"What do you mean?"

Passerby Ding: "Use your brain to think. If this is true, why didn't Headmaster Dumbledore react at all? And don't you find it strange? We've been studying here all this time, but has anyone heard anything like this at the school?"

Passerby C: "Even if this is true, guess who was the first person to contact Blake? And guess why Ye Feng didn't react at all when he heard the news? And guess why Blake is so respectful to Ye Feng?"

Passers-by A, B and D: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

"Wait, what did you just say?"

Passerby C: "Hey, Ye Feng didn't react at all?"

Passerby A: "No, the next sentence."

Passerby C: "Blake is very..."

Passersby A, B, C, and D: "Holy crap!"

Passerby A: "Wait, that can't be right, can it? That's the book that made someone who just came out of Azkaban as powerful as Headmaster Dumbledore. I admit Ye Feng is indeed amazing, but it's unlikely he wrote this, right?"

Passerby C: "I think... it's quite possible. Don't forget his talismans and heavy broomstick, especially the talismans. Those things have been renowned throughout the magic world for so long. Have you ever seen anyone research something that can be replicated? Even just something similar."

Passerby Ding: "It seems... there really isn't one, so... it can't be true, right?"

Passerby A: "That's easy, just ask someone."

B, C, D: [?_??]

Passerby A: (￣▽￣)／

"Ye Feng, I heard that Mr. Black obtained a magical book from you, and now his strength is almost the same as Headmaster Dumbledore's. Is this true?"

Ye Feng: [?_??]

"No, there is a book, but it's not as good as Dumbledore's. At most, it's about the same level as Dumbledore a few years ago."

Passerby A: ヾ(????)ノ"

"OK, thanks."

Ye Feng: (*??v?)

You're welcome.

B, C, D: ...

"Although there seems to be no problem with this, I don't know why I always feel like I have to say something, like I have to get it off my chest."

Others: "Yes, me too."

Passerby A: "So, the rumor is true? Does that mean we can become as strong as Headmaster Dumbledore?"

As soon as Passerby A said this, everyone else looked at him as if he were an idiot, which left him extremely puzzled.

"Why do you think that if Black could get the book, Headmaster Dumbledore wouldn't? And don't forget, the rumor actually originated in our school. Guess who has the real original copy now?"

Others:!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ

Ye Feng: "You guessed wrong~ The content of that book is quite difficult to learn and has a certain degree of danger, so I hid it in a very safe place. It's a place we go to every day and even look at every day, but we don't necessarily set foot there."

"Oh, by the way, you mustn't tell anyone, or Headmaster Dumbledore will definitely come after me again."

A, B, C, D: (?*?*?)

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, A, B, C, and D nodded frantically, and then…

"Have you heard? The rumor about Black is true, and it was originally hidden in our Hogwarts. Ye Feng himself confirmed it."

"Yes, yes, I also heard that the book is hidden in the Gryffindor common room!"

"Huh? Wasn't he supposed to be hidden in Professor Snape's room?"

Others: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

"Where did you hear that from?"

The unimportant character said, "I just guessed. After all, Professor Snape is so terrifying, his room should be one of the safest places in Hogwarts."

Others: Σ(゜ロ゜;)

"Now that you mention it, it does make some sense."

"But that's just your guess. What I heard is that Ye Feng hid the book in Professor Dumbledore's office. After all, he goes there often, he knows it well and it's safe. It's definitely a good place to hide something."

"You're all wrong. Actually, that book is hidden by the girls in Gryffindor..."

Others: っ?Д?)っ

Please be sure to elaborate!!!

I only heard Dumbledore's words by chance while passing by: ...

"What exactly is this guy trying to do? But I've also read the book Blake is holding. It's indeed a very ingenious and creative idea, and it's very popular."

"However, without guidance, it would take at least one or two months for an average person to get started with that. Even I spent three days trying to understand it, and I still haven't really started learning it yet, since there are many things in the book that I haven't fully grasped."

"This guy is really... unfathomable. Perhaps only by understanding the original manuscript in his hand can we get a glimpse of where his terrifying strength comes from."

"However, this doesn't seem so bad. I can almost see a more prosperous and higher-level magical world beckoning to me..."

"Perhaps this is an opportunity, an opportunity for the magical world to flourish even more..."

With the deliberate instigation of certain individuals, the news quickly spread throughout Hogwarts. From that day on, Filch wished he could strangle Ye Feng, because every night after the rumors started circulating, he had to play 'hide-and-seek' with these students until dawn.

You have to understand that even when the talismans first came out, he would only catch people until the middle of the night at most. This was the first time he had worked overtime until dawn. This made Filch, who had always enjoyed this 'cat and mouse' game, feel tired for the first time. He suddenly had the idea of ​​retiring.

then…

"Have you heard? It's said that the book can turn Squibs into real wizards, and the claim is highly reliable."

"Where did you hear that from?"

“I heard this from a distant cousin of mine who works at the Ministry of Magic. Apparently, they tested it with that photocopy, and even though the contents were incomplete, it still allowed a Squib to successfully cast a spell, albeit just a simple cleaning.”
