Arms Dealers From Hogwarts

Days flew by, and soon, the Christmas break was over.

When Hermione returned to school and saw Jemini, she stepped forward and gave Jemini a big hug.

"Thank you for the quill pen you gave me." Hermione let go of Jemini, her face flushed with shame: "It must be expensive, right?"

"It's not expensive, it's made of chicken feathers, only one nut." Jemini spread his hands.

"I don't believe it, I'm afraid I can't even buy a nib for a nut." Hermione said angrily, and couldn't help rolling her eyes: "The nib is gold."

"Really? I thought it was brass!" Jemini said in surprise.

Beside Jemini, Adria looked at Hermione with gloomy eyes to the extreme. If her eyes could be turned into weapons, Hermione would have been pierced by her.

Facing Jemini, Adria put her identity very low, but facing Hermione will not be the case.

The eldest daughter of a pure-blood family, with a beautiful appearance and excellent grades, Hermione at this time looked like an ugly little beaver to Adria.

"And I guess it's a phoenix feather."

"Wrong, it's from a turkey." Jemini spread out his hands: "At Christmas, the kitchen made a hundred turkeys and plucked the chicken feathers all over the floor. I picked the one with the brightest color."

"Turkey feathers are black!" Hermione looked at Jemini with a funny look, and then snorted, as if she was a little dissatisfied with Jemini's coaxing her: "That's the pen you picked, don't you know? That quill pen Can be used as a wand."

"Is there such a usage?" Jemini's eyes widened.

"If it's a phoenix feather and a metal pen holder, it can be used as a temporary wand." Adria said softly, her fair little fists clenched tightly. The moment Hermione took out the quill, her eyeballs froze. famous.

"Wand cores and long sticks made of metal can be used in martial arts magic. Durmstrang has this special wand, but it is not used very much. Medieval Egypt also has a history of using metal to make magic scepters, but it is similar. Compared to wood, metal is really not suitable for making wands, and it is almost impossible to see them now."

Although she would be jealous, Adria seriously gave Jemini the knowledge.

"Is that so..." Jemini nodded.

"It cost a lot of money?" Hermione asked softly, her face flushed.

"Four Galleons."

"You really don't have a word in your mouth, Mr. Lyle!" The little girl rolled her eyes, laughed again, and ran away in a hurry, as if she was too shy.

Adria looked at Hermione's back, murmured something in a low voice with gloomy eyes, what Jemini didn't understand, but judging from the shape of her mouth, it shouldn't be a good word...

"Why did you give her such an expensive gift?" Adria looked at Jemini in confusion.

"I just gave it as I thought it was suitable." Jemini spread his hands and said, "Speaking of which, I'm sorry, Adria, I didn't know you very well before, so I didn't give you anything, and I will choose a good one for you next year. A little gift."

"I am satisfied as long as I follow Lord Fox." Adria whispered: "Although you rejected my gift, Adria will always follow behind you..."

Jemini scratched his hair: "Did you give me a present?"

"I said I would dedicate myself to you..."

Jemini: "..."

It's a Christmas present!

"Originally, I wanted to give you everything I inherited from the Welfare family, but I don't think those trivial things are worthy of you." Adria looked at Jemini with more and more fiery eyes: "So... I gave it myself!"

Jemini opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

The days after Christmas calmed down quickly, and as a first-year Hogwarts student,

Jemini's life wasn't too turbulent.

For Jemini, the most important thing every day is to practice the Patronus Charm.

"If I remember correctly, you have been practicing this spell for half a year, but you still haven't mastered it."

In the Potions Office, Snape sat behind his desk and glanced at Jemini lightly: "After such a long time, the pigs have given birth to a second child."

"Nine, ten, eleven, twelve..." Jemini stretched his fingers and calculated: "Before the second child is born, the pig is five months pregnant."

Snape was taken aback by Jemini's remark: "So you can't use Patronus because you're watching pregnant pigs?"

"I read a miscellaneous book called "The Sow's Postpartum Care" before..." Jemini spread out his hands and tucked his wand back into his arms: "Isn't there any other way to fight Dementors?"

"The Patronus is the only way to fight the Dementors," Snape said succinctly.

"So people like Voldemort can also use the Patronus?" Jemini asked curiously: "Does that guy have the emotion of being able to use the Patronus? I guess it shouldn't, after all, I can't even use it. , but in that case, wouldn't the Ministry of Magic send a team of dementors to kill him?"

Hearing this, Snape was silent for a while, and then slowly said, "To be precise, the Patronus is the only way to fight against Dementors other than black magic."

"Dementors are born in the darkest and most filthy places. They breed like fungi, devouring all the positive emotions, happiness, and happiness of human beings... As long as you have the mentality of fear, it will inevitably become their rations. would be called the most evil and terrifying magical creature in the world."

Snape said lightly, "But in the end, they're nothing but magical creatures."

"It is said that that thing is immortal?" Jemini asked curiously: "Can it still be considered a living thing?"

"If it's really immortal, then what kind of immortality does the Dark Lord pursue? Just turn himself into a dementor..." Snape couldn't help sneering: "Even the phoenix is ​​not really immortal."

"Please teach me other ways to fight Dementors!" Jemini bowed to Snape without hesitation.

"Go away!" Snape was suffocated by his shameless appearance: "As long as I'm still the dean of this academy, don't even think about learning any black magic from me!"

"You said before that if I were assigned to Slytherin..."

"Shut up! You rude and stupid brat!"

Before Jemini could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Snape, who jumped to his feet in anger.

"Alas..." Jemini sighed helplessly: "It seems that when I encounter a dementor in the future, I can only hide, or I can block others in front of me, I am so charming, there will always be someone to do it for me. dead--"

"Yeah, for example, Miss Welfare, that girl fell for you so much." Snape said without yin or yang.

"Like Harry Potter..." Jemini held his cheeks and muttered in a troubled way: "He is actually quite brave, I think he will definitely help me, but unfortunately, those beautiful green eyes How do you feel before you die?"

Snape's face twitched for a moment.

"Ah... that's right." Jemini squeezed his chin and thought for a while: "People who have been sucked by dementors will not die, and will live forever without eyes."

The air fell silent, Snape suddenly looked into Jemini's eyes, Jemini emptied his brain instantly, and Snape returned without success.

"Dementors can perceive human emotions, so Occlumency is a good method. If you want to be more secure, Animagus..." Snape said lightly: "Using the two together will make the camera The spirits are completely incapable of sensing your presence."

"It's just dodging, not fighting, Professor." Jemini shook his head. "I want a way to fight Dementors."

"The Fiery Fire Spell can completely destroy the Dementors, but I can't possibly teach you that. Even I don't have the courage to use it."

Snape said slowly, "Don't even think about studying by yourself, if you let me know that you didn't sleep at night, you went to the bookshelf on the third floor in the penultimate row of the forbidden area and took the book "Flame from Hell" , you are beautiful."

"And don't expect Dumbledore to guide you!"

"I understand Professor."

"roll."

"Okay~"

Chapter 21 of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: The Mysterious Room.

After wasting a lot of time nagging about apparition concerns, Ron was painstakingly writing a particularly difficult paper for Snape. Harry and Hermione are both finished. Harry waited for a low score because he disagreed with Snape on the best way to deal with Dementors. But Harry didn't care, getting Slughorn's memory was the most important thing to him right now.

The above snippet shows that Dementors have other ways to fight.

Because I'm worried that this piece will be offended, I cut out a section of the original book here.

And dementors grow like fungi in damp and decaying places, so I think the blazing fire that burns everything should be able to fight dementors.

After all fungi are afraid of flames and dryness…
