The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

With the end-of-year exams fast approaching, Hogwarts students are plunged into a frantic cramming frenzy.

The school library is filled with students reviewing their lessons every day.

Even at Ravenclaw College, many students have started staying up late to study in the common room.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Scott.

He continued to manage his time methodically, studying when he needed to and resting when he needed to.

Of course, he wasn't completely unaffected.

Besides the fact that his Transfiguration Notebooks sold like hotcakes again thanks to the efforts of Eddie and the Weasley twins…

His arithmetic divination career reached a peak—

Many students are willing to offer him Galleons to use arithmetic divination to predict exam questions.

Chapter 211 New Content for the End-of-Year Exam

Scott, of course, firmly refused the request to calculate the content of the year-end exam.

In the empty classroom that Scott and his friends used for their arithmetic fortune-telling business, after the "guests" left disappointed, Fred and George approached Scott and began their performance.

"Oh! Respected Master Trollope! Why don't you help those poor people with your calculations?"

"Please also tell us the exam questions you've figured out."

"If we could know the exam questions in advance, we could save a lot of study time."

"If we can reduce the amount of time spent reviewing, we can launch new products more quickly!"

"That way, we can earn even more Galleons!"

"Of course, your dividends will also increase!"

“Sorry,” Scott simply smiled and shook his head. “I can’t calculate it.”

Even if you can get a rough estimate, it's useless.

He was very skeptical of the Hogwarts students' sense of secrecy.

If this were done, it might reach the ears of a professor.

In that case, not only would the exam questions change, but Scott, the guy who calculated the exam questions, would also suffer.

Fred and George understood this, so they only acted for a short while before giving up.

George said to Fred, "It seems we need to study seriously for a while."

Fred nodded in agreement, "So that we can have a better summer vacation."

"Do you all have plans for summer vacation?" Eddie asked curiously as he walked over.

Fred and George both shook their heads and spread their hands.

“I’m going to Spain,” Scott said. “Maybe to meet my maternal grandfather and other relatives I’ve never met before?”

Eddie gave him a pitying look. "Oh... a relative I've never met before, that must be so boring."

“We don’t like dealing with relatives we don’t know well either,” Fred said, frowning.

George also curled his lip. "It's common for wizards to intermarry. We have too many relatives we don't get along with."

“Like Malfoy?” Scott asked with a smile.

"vomit……"

Fred and George both made a vomiting face at the same time.

"Hey!"

Just then, Roger rushed in from outside the classroom.

"Have you heard... Slytherin... phew..."

He was panting heavily and his speech was slurred, seemingly because he had run too fast.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Eddie rushed over and patted his back hard. "Tell me, what happened to Slytherin?"

"Cough...cough..."

Roger suddenly started coughing, and his expression became even more pained.

He quickly dodged Eddie's hand, pushed him away forcefully, and it took him a while to catch his breath.

“The Slytherins have formed a new dueling club,” Roger told them. “Of course, they call it the ‘Defense Against the Dark Arts Extracurricular Study Group.’”

"Looks like Percy failed," Fred said with a hint of schadenfreude.

Because the Duel Club was founded by Gryffindor students, not a single Slytherin student joined it after its formation.

Percy had been trying to get Slytherin students involved.

"He hasn't given up yet?" Scott asked, somewhat surprised.

George shrugged. "I think he should give up now."

Roger added, "Also, Snape served as their advisor."

“Oh…” Fred frowned, “These annoying guys are all together.”

Eddie stroked his chin. "Snape probably really likes the Duel Club. He was very enthusiastic about it last semester."

“Obviously.” Everyone else nodded.

“Don’t you find it strange?” Scott said. “You know, the semester is almost over, why would they form these study groups at this time?”

Fred, however, was not surprised.

“I understand them very well,” he said with pity.

George nodded. "They're getting annoyed by Percy."

"..."

Scott glanced at the two of them, somewhat speechless.

Please don't blame everything on Percy.

At this moment, Eddie said, "Does Snape want to have a contest with Professor Flitwick?"

"He's not that boring."

Scott was the first to walk out of the classroom.

"Let's go. Whatever Slytherin wants to do, we'll find out eventually. It's time for dinner."

“Hey! You were the one who brought this up first!” Eddie said, annoyed.

During dinner, Scott made a point of observing the activity at the Slytherin table.

He noticed many Slytherins whispering among themselves and glancing occasionally toward the long tables of other houses.

Scott glanced at her a few more times, and his eyes inadvertently met Strilna's.

The seventh-grader, who had lost to Scott several times in a row, seemed to have changed. He had become more composed and was no longer as impulsive as before.

Just like now, after making eye contact with Scott, he didn't provoke him as before, but calmly looked away.

It seems Snape's Slytherin education was quite effective?

Scott raised an eyebrow and looked away.

Just then, he saw Malfoy Jr. stand up from the long table.

He led his two burly, goofy-looking henchmen, and walked with an air of nonchalance to the Gryffindor long table, stopping behind Harry.

"Oh... what's going on?" Eddie whispered excitedly. "Is Malfoy going to provoke Potter again?"

Scott glanced back.

Harry and Ron had already stood up, looking at Malfoy with disgust.

Malfoy seemed to say something, and Harry and Ron's expressions immediately became even more unpleasant.

Scott glanced at the little Harry doll hanging on Harry's backpack and couldn't help but smile.

The next second, the voices from the other end reached his ears clearly.

“I won’t lose to you, Malfoy!” Harry said sarcastically. “If you come home crying, your father will definitely comfort you!”

“Oh, poor Malfoy baby who can’t live without his dad,” Ron said in a drawn-out tone.

Malfoy sounded quite angry.

"Shut up, Weasley, I'm not talking to you!"

He first retorted to Ron, then said to Harry, "You really should keep an eye on your poor lackey, Potter!"

“Ron is my friend!” Harry said angrily. “Look at those two idiots behind you, they’re called lackeys!”

The two of them started arguing back and forth.

For a moment, Ron and Malfoy's henchmen couldn't get a word in edgewise.

Scott listened with great interest while he ate.

After listening for a while, he finally figured out the main point from their endless stream of nonsense.

It seems that the Defense Against the Dark Arts course will be reformed this year, with the addition of dueling as an exam component.

It turned out to be the case.

Scott understood.

Slytherin hastily formed study groups in preparation for the exam.

Duels added to the exam?

Scott was somewhat surprised, as this was not mentioned in the "original book".

It seems that since Medea's sudden appearance, the "plot" has truly changed completely.

The plan to be implemented starting in Chapter 212
