Hogwarts doesn't need a savior

In just a few seconds, when the rune letters in the air dissipated, a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs spread.

The white fresh vegetables on the table have reached maturity.

Chapter 33 Son of Freya

Cedric's success is a great encouragement to every young wizard in the class.

There are only two types of students who can pass the assessment and enter this classroom. One is the top student who can achieve excellent results even when this course has little practical value, and the other is someone who meets Lynn's strict standards. No matter which type, they are all talented and confident students.

Take Percy for example.

Until the end of the get out of class, they were stimulated by Cedric and burst out with motivation that surprised Lynn. Two of them actually completed the rune activation under the guidance and explanation, and the others also made progress.

Although he could only rely on runes to barely feel the effect, it was still nearly twice as fast as Lin En expected.

This made him feel both bleed in his wallet and a little relieved.

When the bell rang, he stood on the podium, looked at the students with different expressions, and said loudly:

"You can keep this rune for review and study. The content of the next class will still be activating and experiencing the Feihu. Students who failed don't need to be discouraged. Different runes are suitable for each wizard. It's already outstanding to be able to master three to five kinds - of course, you don't need to use runes."

Smiling and waving his hand, Lynn signaled the end of get out of class.

The students gathered in groups of three or five, holding runes and discussing non-stop, preparing to use their after-school time to make up for the missed lessons.

The second successful Percy was beaming with joy. He dragged Penelope to the library, determined to write a brilliant review and get the teaching assistant position.

Another successful person, Doris Foley, walked up to Lynn and asked a few more questions before leaving.

Soon, Cedric was the only one left in the classroom.

"Professor Eric, is there anything you want me to do for you?" Cedric asked when he saw Fry packed up and left.

"Nothing, sit down and talk. I'm just curious, how did you find all the magic nodes so quickly? Percy and Doris also had to be guided by me before they succeeded."

Seeing that he was a little reserved, Lynn smiled gently and pulled a chair over to sit next to him.

Under Lynn's encouraging gaze, Cedric also relaxed a little. He pointed to the letters on the rune and said, "Professor, I don't know what's going on. It's like it can speak, guiding me and my magic."

"Oh?" Lin En was a little surprised. "This is not common."

Cedric went on to say, "Not only this, but the first eight of the twenty-four runes seem to be the same."

"...You mean the entire Freyaet?" Lynn showed a surprised expression, "What about the other two?"

"It seems not. Is this normal, professor?" Cedric was a little nervous.

"Of course it's not normal, kid." Lynn smiled, "It's just abnormally good."

"Eh?"

Cedric was stunned, obviously not used to Lynn's heavy breathing.

Lin En didn't rush to explain, but began to ask questions with interest: "Do you know why Rune is divided into these three Etes, Cedric?"

"Because 3 and 8 are magic numbers?"

"This is one of the reasons, but not the only one." Lin En drew out his wand, and the twenty-four runes appeared again. "The three eters represent three legendary gods and three concepts."

"concept?"

"Yes, Freya who created, Hagar who fought, and Tyr who ruled."

"Create, strive, dominate..."

“Freya symbolizes fertility and wisdom, which is the source of creation; Haggart is also regarded as Heimdall’s Etter, carrying light and knowledge, similar to Prometheus who stole fire in Greek mythology; Tyr represents law and war, which is the cornerstone of rule.”

The titles of the three gods flashed before Cedric's eyes, as if there were really three people standing in front of him.

There was more mystery in his eyes.

"You mean, Freyaet chose me?"

Cedric's eyes widened. In a trance, the two tall male figures disappeared before his eyes, leaving only a goddess with flaxen hair and a kind face.

"That's right, Cedric." Lynn did not hide her admiration. "Freya only favors kind and intelligent people, who are rare. You will achieve something."

"I... sir... this is a bit..."

Although he was widely regarded as the best student in Hufflepuff since Lynn, Cedric was still a teenager after all. His brain was temporarily frozen and his speech became halting.

"You deserve it." Lin En was very sure, "This set of runes is also very suitable for you, son of Freya."

Clear magical paths appeared as Lynn's fingertips moved, lighting up the classroom.

"Phehu of abundance."

"Uruz of strength."

"Guardian Sulizaz."

"Ensos the wise."

"Moving Redo."

"Kennaz of Fire."

"Gift of Kifer."

"The last is the joyful Wujuu."

Following Lin's soft and clear voice, eight kinds of rune magic appeared before Cedric, each of which made him feel familiar.

Uruz filled him with energy and strength, Sulisaz seemed to have put on a thin but strong armor for him, and Ensos's arrival made him feel more sober and sharp than ever before.

Coupled with Redo, which is more magical than Apparition, and the blazing Rune Fire, except for Kifer and Wujiu who did not feel the effect, he suddenly realized that this was almost a set of Rune magic designed for duels.

"Every wizard has a specialty, Cedric. Don't waste your talent. I suggest you dig deeper into it."

Patting Cedric, who was overwhelmed with emotion, Lynn said meaningfully.

"Freya must have a reason for favoring you. The real key may be hidden in Keefer and Wujiu. You are a true Hufflepuff. I am very optimistic about you. Take these eight runes back and study them. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time. I hope that you can get rid of the runes within a year and truly master them."

"This is very valuable, sir!"

Cedric saw the specialness of these runes at a glance and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but they were stuffed directly into his hands.

"It's just a little alchemy thing. Don't forget that I'm also a Hufflepuff." Lynn smiled and winked, saying playfully, "Besides, how do you know I have no selfish motives? Let me remind you that my club will be recruiting new members soon."

"I understand, Professor." The cool touch of his palm made Cedric excited and excited, "I will try my best! Please give me more advice!"

"Of course, Professor Sprout thinks highly of you. She has always thought that you are the best student in this class - and now I think so too. Come on, it's time for dinner. If you don't hurry up, you will have to go to the kitchen to cook in the evening."

Just a few words made the potential stock that he valued get excited. Lynn watched Cedric leave with a smile.

This tall and handsome boy gave him a big surprise and also brought back many memories.

When he was the only one left in the classroom, he raised his head and looked at the rune letters that had not yet dissipated in the air.

The powerful magic keeps them alive for a long time.

In the middle, a line symbolizing light and knowledge slowly lights up, emitting a surging magical aura.

"I didn't expect that besides Fei, there is someone else who can be favored by Rune..." As he muttered to himself, the fragmented memories gradually condensed, "Maybe this is also the so-called 'arrangement of fate'? Haha, I knew that old liar Sibyl was unreliable."

He stood up and waved his hand. All the letters were dispersed. He looked like a yew tree towering into the sky, strong and upright.

Chapter 34 Two Faces

After the first class that surprised her, Lynn's teaching got on track.

Not to mention Cedric who worked day and night and Percy who treated the library as his home, and those sixth graders who studied very hard. The next day, Lynn had to give advanced courses to the NEWTs candidates.

Compared to the cheerful sixth grade, Lin En’s attitude and approach are naturally different when facing the seventh grade, which will have the most important exam next year - and of course the fifth grade next week.

You could even say they were like two different people.

On Friday morning, looking at the little wizard who had just finished breakfast and was full of excitement, he had a blank expression on his face and the air in the classroom was frozen.

The little wizards didn't dare to speak, and they communicated with each other through eye contact in groups of three or four.

This is totally different from what we said yesterday!

Professor Eric acted as if someone owed him tens of thousands of gold Galleons early in the morning!

His expression was even more grim than Snape's... Oh, that's not the case, after all, Professor Eric was good-looking, but that wasn't the point!

Quietly looking at Lin En's tense face, the seventh graders had a bad feeling and quickly sat up straight.

"Well... let's have some discipline." Lynn nodded, tapping the wand against his palm. "We are all adults, and I don't think we need to say too much or too much about what we will experience next June, right, Andrew?"

"Yes, professor, we are going to participate in NEWTs." Andrew trembled when his name was called.

"It's good to know."

Lynn waved his wand with satisfaction, and the parchment file flew into the air and landed steadily in front of each person.

"I've looked at all your grades, and the situation is similar to that of sixth graders. Unfortunately, you only have one year."

Lin En's tone was like that of a teacher in his previous life, calm but with a low pressure.

"So, the step-by-step practice of ancient magic is too luxurious for you, even if you have an extra weekend training every month - because there is still not enough time, and I believe you all want to get good grades."

"After all, next year's Auror selection and Gringotts Curse Tester recruitment will use it as a bonus item."

In just a few simple sentences, he has made the pros and cons clear.

The students who had just been secretly dissatisfied now deeply felt the imminent pressure of reality.

And what Lin En said next was like a bucket of cold water poured over one's head.

"My comments are on your desk. They include your overall situation in the first six years, with an emphasis on magic knowledge. Please forgive me for being blunt. For this year's NEWTs, if you are only at your current level, then no more than half of you will pass. A few people will have a chance to get an E. As for an O, I don't see any chance."

As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was in an uproar.

There are many top students here, and many of them have obtained more than eight certificates in the OWLs exams.

Andrew, who had the best results, had twelve certificates and nine outstanding certificates, including ancient runes.

But in Lin's opinion, he was just one of the few people who had the possibility of getting E.

Andrew looked grim as he silently read Lynn's comments, but he had nothing to say.

Every word is irrefutable.

[The vocabulary of magic words is excellent, but it is limited to reading. There are shortcomings in translation and the modern literature is not covered enough. 】

[Able to master and integrate theoretical knowledge skillfully, but weak in research ability and lack of originality. ]

[He is relatively proficient in common magic spells, and his four basic subjects are well developed, but he lacks flexibility and is not good at accepting new things.]

【Comprehensive evaluation: good at knowledge learning, but weak at practice and expansion. 】

Each comment is based on specific performance and hits the pain points.

OWLs and NEWTs are completely different types of exams. The former tests knowledge level, while the latter tests comprehensive ability.

For most careers, OWLs are sufficient, and the focus is on the number of subjects passed and the grades in a few subjects.

But most of these jobs are unremarkable.

Careers that are truly promising often attach great importance to NEWTs results, that is, they examine the growth potential of graduates.

This is precisely the relative shortcoming of Andrew, an excellent student.

He himself was aware of it, but his excellent performance over the years made him subconsciously ignore it.

Until Lynn ruthlessly revealed everything.

It was exactly what his strict father had said.

Andrew clutched the parchment, his face turning pale and blue.

Around him, the little wizards had different expressions.

Some had livid faces, some blushed, and some were secretly afraid.

Lynn, who was at the podium, took in all the reactions and judged them in his mind.

The evaluation on the parchment was objective and fair, but it hid a little trick.
