Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

"I should also choose all the classes..."

Michael said in annoyance, "I thought the school would stagger the class times, or let you make up for the missed classes on weekends. I didn't expect that the truth might be more interesting than I guessed..."

"Teaching twelve courses will take up so much time, and writing the homework for twelve courses... I think you can only endure it for two weeks at most, and then you will give up on your own initiative..."

Vader said with a smile.

He knew Michael very well. Michael was lazy and had never been good at working hard.

Michael imagined himself having eight or nine classes a day, shuddered, and silently retracted his previous thoughts.

Not long after the two of them sat down in the classroom, Hermione ran in hurriedly. She slammed her schoolbag on the table with an angry expression on her face.

Wade looked at her and guessed that Hermione might have finished her Divination class by now.

Just like he chose to take Arithmancy class with Michael first, Hermione should have gone to Divination class with Harry and the others first and heard Trelawney's prophecy about death.

The two looked at each other and he confirmed his thoughts.

Hermione smiled helplessly at him but said nothing. She even sat at the other end of the classroom, apparently to avoid accidentally passing the information about the "Future Divination Class" to Vader.

So Wade also withdrew his gaze.

The whole classroom was sparsely populated. When the class was about to start, there were less than ten people. Most of them were Ravenclaws. There was only one Gryffindor, Hermione, and no Hufflepuffs.

To Wade's surprise, Theodore Nott from Slytherin also chose this course. He sat alone aside, flipping through the Arithmancy textbook in his hands.

After a while, a professor pushed open the door and came in.

The professor of arithmetic divination is named Setima Victor, a female professor with thick black hair and elegant appearance.

She was wearing a crimson wizard robe and a pointed, cake-cone-like hat. She spoke softly and rarely smiled.

"Arithmetic divination is a rigorous discipline that has been used for more than two thousand years."

She said in a soft and clear voice: "In this class, you don't need to touch the crystal ball or look at moldy tea leaves to make up stories. Our divination rules are based on regular and rigorous mathematical operations, using numbers to explore people's character and destiny..."

Chapter 329 The Disappearing Friend

In the arithmetic divination class, Professor Victor first started teaching the numbers from 1 to 9.

According to this professor, each number has a unique personality and color, corresponding to different graphics, and any object, person's name and destiny can be converted into a corresponding number and then interpreted using a series of theories.

She also taught students to interpret their own names -

First convert the letters into numbers, and then convert the numbers into personality numbers that show personality, spiritual numbers that express inner desires and fears, and social numbers related to external performance through addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

These were all two-digit operations, so naturally, they were not difficult for Wade. He added and subtracted, and soon got his three numbers -

[The behavior is driven by unremitting imagination and exuberant curiosity, pursuing both reality and fantasy, and possessing extraordinary creativity. ]

[It is not easy to establish close social relationships, and I don’t like complicated social activities. I tend to live in the world of ideas...]

——Astrology? Or personality test?

Wade looked at the result of his divination and was silent for a long time.

At this time, Professor Victor also came to Wade's side. She looked at Wade's calculation results, silently calculated them in her mind, and then smiled faintly.

"The calculation results are correct, but social figures are not always constant throughout our lives. To accurately interpret these figures, we need to combine them with the current astronomical phenomena and time."

"Of course, this is something we will learn in the future. You have done a good job so far, and I am very satisfied."

After Professor Victor finished speaking, he nodded at Wade and went to see Michael's results.

Michael nervously showed his parchment.

Wade leaned over to take a look and was immediately speechless.

Because Michael's interpretation of himself is——

[A determined and courageous warrior. Poor communication skills, a loner and suspicious. He will achieve great success in politics and become a dictator who likes to give orders.]

There was no way that could match Michael.

Professor Victor also did some mental calculations and burst out laughing.

"You made a stupid mistake, Mr. Conner." Professor Victor said with a smile: "M corresponds to the number 4, not 5."

Michael looked down and found that it was true. He blushed and apologized to the professor. Then he finally got serious and bent over the table to recalculate.

To Vader, his first Arithmancy lesson seemed like a simple numbers game, with no calculations exceeding two digits.

Even so, his classmates frequently made mistakes. Professor Victor was very patient, and she instructed them one by one, and never got angry at any stupid student from beginning to end.

At the end of the get out of class, the homework Professor Victor left was also very simple - to interpret the names of three acquaintances using arithmetic divination.

Michael heard this and immediately came up with an idea. On the way back, he said:

"Vade, lend me the content you interpreted in class. I'll ask Hermione for reference later. This way, I only need to find one more person to interpret it, and the homework will be reduced by two-thirds immediately!"

"I don't mind lending it to you to copy." Wade said, "But aren't you worried about failing the exam?"

"Don't worry, I've memorized the key points and the symbolism of the numbers. I'm just too lazy to count them over and over again."

After Michael finished speaking, he went to look for Hermione to borrow hers, but after walking around for a while, he didn't see the girl with the messy curly hair.

But there were only a few students in the corridor.

"Strange, how could Hermione, such a conspicuous person, disappear in the blink of an eye... Vader, did you see where she went? Vader?"

Michael turned his head and found that Wade was gone too.

He was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked around, only to see Theodore Nott walking past him with a gloomy expression.

"Michael?"

Just when Michael was confused, someone patted him on the shoulder from behind. Michael turned around and saw that the person was Wade.

He seemed to have just come out from a side corridor, and suddenly there was a strange and cheap fragrance on his body. He also yawned lazily, as if he had not woken up yet.

"What are you standing there for? Let's go," said Wade.

"okay."

Michael followed, vaguely understanding something, yet also finding it unbelievable.

……

When Michael went to find Hermione, Wade saw that no one noticed him, so he took a step back, used the statues in the corridor to block other people's sight, and then turned the time converter back twice.

The feeling of traveling through the time tunnel reappeared, so fancy that it made people dizzy. Wade calmed down and saw that there was no one around.

The cool light of the early morning filtered through the window, and the corridor was lonely and deserted.

Wade did not stay here for long. He used the Flying Spell to summon his broom, flew back to the dormitory and took a nap. When it was almost nine o'clock, he rode his broom directly to the North Tower.

As he passed through the window and landed in the corridor, Wade heard an enthusiastic voice shouting, "Let's go on foot! Two gentlemen and this lady, forward! Forward!"

Vader leaned his broom against the wall next to him, and soon the house-elf would carry it back to his quarters.

He smoothed his wind-messy hair and walked in the direction of the sound. He saw Harry and the other two climbing the spiral staircase, panting and almost falling to their knees.

In the portrait next to them, there is a short, fat, armored knight riding a dark gray pony, waving hard:

"Goodbye, my comrades! If you need a noble heart and muscles of steel, don't forget to call me Sir Cadogan!"

Harry and the others were too tired to talk. They just watched the knight in the portrait leave, and then saw Wade walking up from the bottom of the stairs.

"Good morning, everyone!" Wade greeted happily.

The classroom for divination classes is hidden. When the class starts, the trap door on the ceiling will open, lowering a silver ladder. Going up the ladder is their classroom.

The curtains in this classroom were drawn even in broad daylight, and many crimson candles with red lampshades were lit, lighting the entire room with an irritating scarlet color.

The room was filled with small round tables and armchairs, like an old-fashioned teahouse that was running low on business. The shelves along the wall were filled with divination props such as crystal balls and tea sets.

I don’t know what kind of incense Professor Trelawney of the Divination class put in the fireplace, but the whole room was filled with a sweet fragrance, and the smell alone made me want to sleep.

But some people think that this environment is great, full of mysterious and ancient atmosphere - such as Padma's sister Parvati, who is looking at a gray crystal ball in the corner with expectant and envious eyes.

Chapter 330 An ominous sign

Wade looked around and found the name "Sybill Trelawney" in the corner.

The professor stood in the shadows where the light could not reach, and her whole body was covered with complicated and strange jewelry, which made her perfectly invisible in this messy room.

She wore a pair of large glasses with bulging eyeballs, and she had an obvious mysterious aura about her.

Vader suddenly felt that she was somewhat similar to Luna - not in appearance, but in the feeling of living in another world.

The students who didn't see the professor didn't sit down hastily. They looked around in surprise. Ron asked, "Where is she?"

"Welcome." A disembodied voice came, "It's great to finally see you in the physical world."

Trelawney came staggering out, the tulle shawl gleaming on her shoulders and the bracelets on her arms jingling as they clashed.

Vader had an indescribable expression.

Trelawney was obviously putting on airs, trying to intimidate these students who were taking their first divination class by portraying themselves as mysterious, powerful, and able to communicate with the gods.

But in fact, the way she stood in the dark and observed the students was exactly how she wanted to be. When she pretended, she looked vulgar and shallow.

Trelawney asked the students to sit down, straightened her shawl, sat in an armchair, and continued to boast -

"...the overly busy school life has made my third eye blurry..."

"This is the most difficult course in all the magical arts... If you do not have 'sight', then there is little I can teach you..."

"… Only a few people have the talent to see through the fog and into the future…"

Trelawney raised her chin slightly, indicating that she was one of the very few talented people, but her eyes were just fixed on a certain point in the air in front of her, not looking at anyone.

It has to be said that the naive students were almost all fooled. Vader saw Padma not far away looking at the professor with a critical eye, but as time went on, her expression became more and more convinced.

Wade flipped through his divination textbook boredly.

The cover of the book features a sun, a giant eye and a woman's back, and the author is Cassandra Vabrsky.

The main text also briefly introduces this famous prophet in the magic world - she was once a beautiful princess who received the Eye of Divine Vision from the sun god Apollo, which enabled her to see what would happen in the future.
