Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

It was obvious that Dumbledore not only knew about the duel, he even knew many details.

For example, what Ryan had done before was almost incredible to other young wizards.

To seize the spell and crush it—it seemed incredible.

But at its core, it is just a simple armor spell.

It's just like Ryan's use of the levitation spell.

As an ancient wizard, he didn't have so many rules and regulations when using the Armor Spell.

He concentrated a large amount of his limited magic power in his left hand and shaped it into a solid one, making it have an effect far stronger than the normal armor spell.

In fact, the prototype of the Iron Armor Curse, the ancient magic 'Soul Protection' itself was used in this way.

In addition, the scales of a fire dragon or the skin of a giant, their ability to resist spells also comes from similar structures.

"Wizards themselves are magical beings."

This is the Slytherin view.

He believed that dragons, giants, and even all magical beasts and wizards were essentially the same in terms of magical power.

What they can do, wizards can naturally do too.

So Ryan can easily crush the little wizards' spells - their spells are unstable to begin with!

As for the spell that Ryan used to defeat MacColl Dolohov, it was just as Dumbledore said - it was an ancient spell called the Star-Veil Curse.

It was a mind-affecting spell that caused the victim to see a vast starry sky and fall into a coma due to the feeling of insignificance.

This spell is one of the few ancient spells that Ryan can cast now, because its power and the magic power required are not outstanding.

Even after being cursed, the person can easily recover after a day of rest.

A wizard with strong enough willpower can easily resist this spell.

But it was obvious that Michael Dolohov did not have such a strong will.

And Dumbledore knew so many details, which made Ryan have to doubt...

"He wouldn't have been watching from the sidelines through some means, right?"

Ryan looked at the principal with some suspicion.

"Oh, that's what Fox told me."

Dumbledore seemed to see through Ryan's thoughts. He pointed to the phoenix beside him, indicating that Fawkes was its name. "The phoenix is ​​a sufficiently intelligent magical animal and a loyal companion, especially for an old man over a hundred years old who is not suitable for much movement... The news it brings me every day is very fresh."

Only a fool would believe it.

Ryan rolled his eyes inwardly.

It’s not advisable for a person over a hundred to move around too much - this is like Gryffindor saying that he is too old to lift his sword anymore.

However, although he didn't believe it in his heart, Ryan answered without hesitation.

"Yes, Mr. Principal."

He remained calm and said, "I read those spells and the methods of controlling magic from books passed down in my family."

Chapter 36 Dumbledore: Believe in the wisdom of our predecessors!

Ryan lied without changing his expression, but at the same time his eyes were full of suspicion when he looked at Dumbledore.

Based on what he had learned so far about Headmaster Albus Dumbledore.

Ryan judged that the other party should be a great wizard, with a just heart and a wise mind, and was extremely influential in the contemporary magical world.

In addition to his powerful magic and great achievements, Dumbledore is also known as the protector of Muggles in the wizarding world. He once defeated the first generation Dark Lord in Nepal.

Drive out evil and never compromise - this seems very similar to Gryffindor himself.

So before today's duel, Ryan had actually concluded that Dumbledore would not fire him because of what happened today.

Of course, he also prepared for the worst.

If Dumbledore's character was inconsistent with the rumors and he was really expelled under the influence of the board of directors, then it would mean that Hogwarts was in fact controlled by the so-called pure-blood supremacy.

If that were the case, Ryan would choose to leave Hogwarts temporarily and wait quietly.

After his magic power recovered to its peak and he became strong enough.

He would return to Hogwarts and drive out all those so-called 'governors'.

He would never allow Hogwarts, the cradle of magic built by himself and four teachers, to be controlled by such insects!

What school board?

He was one of the builders of Hogwarts, how come he didn't know there was such a thing in the school?

But there is no doubt that even in Ryan's best estimates.

He hadn't anticipated the current situation.

Dumbledore obviously knew all the details of the duel, but he was obviously giving him a way out and even helping him find a reasonable explanation.

If Ryan was just skeptical during the sorting ceremony, now he can be sure.

The principal's attitude towards him was very unique, he might know something.

But Dumbledore had no intention of discussing it in detail tonight.

He simply nodded, then said cheerfully, "It's clear that Mr. Elias's past elders left him something precious, which made him an outstanding little wizard."

"As for the school board, I believe they will understand—geniuses always find it difficult to follow rules."

Having said this, he saw Snape's gloomy expression.

"But Severus, you are certainly right... Mr. Elias violated the school rules after all and caused a bad influence."

He looked at Ryan and asked in a friendly manner.

"So I think a week of detention would be a suitable punishment - Mr. Elias, you will have to go to Professor Snape for detention next weekend. What do you think?"

"No problem at all."

Ryan hesitated for a moment and then nodded, then looked at Snape - although the latter's face was gloomy at the moment, he did not express any objection.

This made Ryan realize that although it was not obvious on the surface, in fact... the Slytherin headmaster seemed to respect Dumbledore very much.

"Yes, that's it."

Dumbledore smiled and picked up a candy, then handed one to Ryan: "It seems we have reached a consensus."

"It's getting late. I mean... Ryan, maybe you have classes tomorrow morning?"

By saying this, he was obviously ordering them to leave.

Ryan glanced at Snape, who was still standing there without moving, and realized that the two seemed to have something to talk about.

"Of course, I will be leaving first then - Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor Snape."

But he had no intention of staying to listen, so he tactfully said goodbye and left the principal's office.

And when walking down the spiral staircase and passing by the stone beast.

Ryan put the candy Dumbledore handed him into his mouth.

"Oh, Lemon Sherbet...it tastes good—maybe I should come visit the principal more often in the future."

He smacked his lips in satisfaction and walked away.

At this time, in the principal's office.

"You always are, Dumbledore."

Snape said, "What is he? Another dangerous item in your collection?"

But Dumbledore was not angry in the face of Snape's ridicule.

"Don't get so worked up, Severus."

He just said with a smile.

"Excited? Dumbledore—you know what I'm talking about."

Snape almost gritted his teeth at this moment: "First of all, Quirinus Quirrell. He has... you have clearly confirmed that he is that person."

"And you left him alone, letting him wander around the castle pretending to be that fool every day?"

"And now Ryan Elias is equally dangerous... His magical talent, those spells of unknown origin, as well as his background and ambitions - in the first week of school, he tried to tame the Slytherin students through force... You should know how dangerous he is!"

He placed great emphasis on the word 'dangerous', saying, "You know what I'm talking about. He's just like that guy!"

After he said this, the portraits in the principal's office also exclaimed in surprise.

Of course they knew who Snape was talking about - the one who must not be named!

And as Snape said, Ryan seemed very similar to him.

They both came from orphanages, were gifted, and were talented.

Then Dumbledore's expression became serious.

"I'm sorry about Quirinus."

He didn't deny the first half of Snape's words: "I should have noticed sooner, but I didn't have time... and now it's too late."

"And I let him stay in school and teach because his actions were inconsistent with what I suspected."

Dumbledore spoke softly, with a mixture of sympathy and doubt for Quirrell: "I don't want to sound arrogant, Severus - but in fact, this situation is indeed rare."

"So I have to confirm something, which is why I asked you to keep an eye on him."

He spoke seriously, but Snape did not reply.

But then Dumbledore's expression softened again.

"As for Ryan, his situation is exactly the opposite of what you said."

He spoke gently, "His gifts and spells come from his elders, and his actions are not motivated by ambition, but by a noble purpose."

"He's different from Tom... totally different."

"Noble purpose?"
