Chapter 195： Bad omen

Since the last time the Witcher Card Club was promoted, more Hogwarts students who know the game of Witcher Card have increased. Several students even expressed the hope that they could own cards exclusively for their own academy, and they were willing to join the Wizard Card Club to help Albert design new cards.

This is conducive to the promotion of the wizard card. As long as the wizard card enters other academies, it will definitely gradually expand the number of players. Albert believes that within a short period of time, more and more students will like this card game, which is easy to use, has various playing methods, and can freely design various strategies.

At present, the biggest problem with the wizard card is the number of players. As long as everyone is playing the wizard card, others will definitely be curious to play with the wind. Albert believes that the charm of the wizard card itself can conquer everyone.

However, the design and manufacture of cards is still a hassle. Although Fred, George and Lee Jordan are helping him as much as possible, most of the time Albert still needs to do it himself.

Having said that, there are a lot of things that I need to worry about.

The design and manufacture of the wizard card, the magic training and homework of various courses, the frequent correspondence with other wizards, the weekly routine of borrowing books from the library, the research on improving the protective bracelet is still continuing, the use of ancient magic There is currently no progress in the study of Wenshishu. The manuscript for "Transfiguration Today" also has academic research in the Magic Club. It occasionally takes time to practice the Patronus Mantra and searches for books related to Occlumency in the restricted book area.

Filch was brooding about what happened last semester, and he strengthened the night patrol of the castle right after school started. Snape occasionally helped patrol the castle so that Albert would directly dispel the idea of ​​visiting the restricted area late at night.

He didn't want to be the unlucky person who was caught during the next night tour, by the way, Gryffindor, who had been deducted fifty points, was directly at the bottom.

If you insist on saying something good recently, it is probably Albert's small breakthrough in ancient magic text!

Professor Bathsida Babling is indeed an expert in this field, with high attainments in the field of ancient magic texts.

Every Tuesday afternoon, Albert will go to Professor Babling's ancient magic text improvement class, and stay after class to exchange ancient magic texts with Professor Babling.

Not long ago, they also studied, analyzed, and discussed MacDoug’s "Basic Magic Text Complete Solution" and "Advanced Magic Text Research", and Albert's magic text experience has also grown dramatically.

Today, Albert's magic text experience is more than half of the second level.

Although Professor Babling is the Magic Professor at Hogwarts, she does not actually live in the castle and only has five classes a week. There were only four students in the ancient magic writing class, two Ravenclaws, one Slytherin, one Hufflepuff, and Albert came to visit.

Originally, ancient magic writing was an elective course for the third grade. Even fewer students can pass O·w·Ls with good grades. Some students may not be willing to come to the improvement class even if they meet the conditions, which directly leads to this course. There are only two or three kittens in the advanced class.

Of course, the ancient magic texts are not the worst, and there is no improvement class for Muggle Research.

As long as you can take a good O·w·Ls Muggle research certificate, you can work as a Muggle liaison at the Ministry of Magic.

As for the improvement classes for divination, mathematics, divination, and protection of magical biology, the number of students is also pitifully small, and there are very few who can really learn from the improvement classes and come in handy after graduation.

After graduating from school, it is common for professions and majors to be mismatched.

After the bell rang after class, several people greeted each other and left.

Albert did not leave, he will stay and continue the last exchange with Professor Babling.

"How do you feel?" Professor Babling asked gently. This is the advantage of outstanding students. The relationship between the two is actually pretty good.

"It's okay, the content of the lecture is not difficult, I have mastered most of it." Albert said, flipping through the notes.

"You should already have the level of N·E·W·T." Professor Babling said softly. Although some people have a talent for learning ancient magic texts, a talent like Albert was also the first to let Professor Babling fall through.

"The difficulty is lower than I thought." Albert said.

"N·E·W·T is really not difficult." Professor Babling explained, "The difficulty is how to go further in this area after graduating from Hogwarts. We only learn the tip of the iceberg, like Mike After all, there are only a few people who have studied deeply like Mr. Doug."

Albert admits that this can't be seen from the "Advanced Mowen Research" few can fully understand.

Footsteps sounded outside the corridor of the ancient classroom on the sixth floor, and then the door was knocked.

Isobel opened the door and walked in. She was also good at ancient magic texts and had McDoug's relationship. Professor Babling allowed her to participate in this extra-curricular exchange.

Professor Babling waved his magic wand, and several people's favorite refreshments and biscuits appeared on the table. This was not a serious class, but a good atmosphere of communication.

Sitting on a comfortable sofa enjoying afternoon tea and having two consecutive classes, Professor Babling was also a little tired.

The topic started after the three of them finished their first cup of tea.

"The subject we are studying today is rune stone (magic stone) divination."

"I remember, there seems to be a fortune-telling class in the third grade, and it seems to teach how to use runes for divination?" Albert raised his head to look at Isobel and asked, "Do you have a fortune-telling class?"

However, Albert had already guessed the answer after seeing the change in the expression on the opponent's face. Obviously, this Ravenclaw genius was very similar to Professor McGonagall, thinking that taking a divination class was a waste of effort.

"I don't have that talent." Isobel picked up his teacup and sipped his mouth, glanced at Albert and said lightly: "Maybe, you will."

"Sybil is good at this aspect, I also specially invited her to come." Professor Babling saw that the two of them did not seem to be very interested in rune divination, and said, "Rune divination is an ancient British divination. It is said that it is very accurate, but there are not many wizards who really know how to interpret runes for divination. Fortunately Sybil has done some research in this area."

Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard the words, and then said simply, "I heard...Divination requires talent, and only a few people have that talent."

As far as he knows, most students choose divination classes purely for the sake of messing around. They don't care whether they can get good grades in O·w·Ls.

After graduation, there are almost zero wizards who can engage in divination. After all, a fortuneteller who cannot predict is the same as a liar, and no one would welcome such a liar.

Sybil Trelawney does have the ability to predict the future, but her ability is uncontrollable, and she cannot use crystal **** to predict and divination like other fortune-tellers, and directly see certain fragments of predictions.

"Sibyl should have this ability." Professor Babling is also not sure. She knows that the friend has the ability to predict. After all, she is the great-great-granddaughter of the famous fortuneteller Cassandra Trelawney. Ability is often passed on through blood.

As the three chatted around the ancient magic texts, runes and magic runes, the door of the ancient magic texts classroom was knocked again, and the people they had just discussed appeared outside the door.

This is Albert's first close encounter with Sybil Trelawney.

She was a very thin woman with a pair of big glasses and a bunch of chains and beads hanging around her neck. She looked a little crazy, maybe she just didn't want people to figure out her own details.

"Oh, Bathsida, hope I'm not late." Trelawney poked her head into the classroom, her eyes falling on Albert and Isobel.

"I mentioned it to you." Professor Babling smiled and invited Professor Trelawney into the classroom. The relationship between the two was really good. "We are studying runic divination. I think you can definitely help in this regard. Very busy, after all, you are an expert in this area."

"Oh, rune stone divination, this is an ancient science, and now there are very few wizards who are really good at this kind of divination." Trelawney walked in and sat next to Professor Babling, obediently I took out an exquisite bag from my pocket, "...Now, I will only briefly mention it in the divination class. It is easier for most students to predict the future from tea dregs and crystal balls. At least they can compare books. Find the answer. Of course, students who don't have the talent of "Tianmu" can only do this in this subject."

Professor Trelawney's remarks were not wrong. Divination requires talent. Without talent and unable to make predictions, it will only be regarded as a liar without any respect.

Trelawney opened the exquisite bag and poured out the runes inside. She reached out and stroked the symbol on it, and said "thank you" to Professor Babling who brought the black tea in front of her, and continued: "Everything The symbols on the gemstones all narrate the stories and profound meanings contained in the ancient text symbols...and can also be used to seek desired results."

Albert bit a biscuit, listened quietly to Trelawney's nagging, and smiled at Isobel who frequently drinks black tea. The latter seemed a little anxious. She obviously didn't believe Trelawney's nonsense.

"Hold the bag with runes in the palm of your hand, and meditate on your own problems in your heart. You also need to meditate." Trelawney nagging, while repacking the runes in the bag, "Remember, stay ethereal State, follow the instinct to feel the instructions of natural power, and then take a runestone from the bag and place it in the palm of your hand."

Albert and Isobel looked at each other, and both could see the twitching of the corners of their mouths, and the two said nothing.

"Why don't you test it, which of you will come first." Professor Babling said.

"Ladies first!" Albert made a please gesture towards Isabel.

"No, you first." Isabel doesn't actually believe this prediction.

"Okay!" Albert took the bag with the runes, meditated on the question in his mind, and then meditated, keeping his thoughts as ethereal as possible.

He reached out his hand and took out the runes from the bag and placed it on his palm.

"What's your problem?" Trelawney asked.

"The future of wealth~www.novelhall.com~ Albert thought without hesitation.

"I think you are very talented in divination." Trelawney walked to Albert's side and suddenly said.

"Thank you." Albert responded politely.

"It's a positive Fehu." Trelawney glanced at the runes on Albert's palm, with a strange expression. "Fehu itself represents wealth and symbolizes material gains, which means Your fortune is very good. It represents some form of success. As long as you hold the things in your hands, you can achieve success and overcome the difficulties encountered during the period."

"My fortune has indeed been good." Albert said somehow. Put the runes back in the bag and hand the bag to Isabel.

"I want to know, will I be in trouble in the near future?" Isabel said his problem lightly, and then took out a rune stone from the bag.

"Reverse Eiwaz Luen (EIHWAZ Trelawney glanced at the runestone in Isabel's hand, "This is an obvious warning to warn you to be careful... This is not a good sign ."
