In the exquisitely crafted porcelain cups, the black tea is steaming for a long time.

Professor Fox's question, Lynn did not answer immediately, but asked instead.

"Professor, I want to know if what they say is true? You really killed five wizards with black magic torture? And ended up in Azkaban?"

Without temptation, Lynn directly threw out the doubts in his heart.

Professor Fox's expression didn't change, but Lynn still noticed that the fingers he was holding the handle of the teacup tightened a lot, and the joints became a little white from too much force.

He was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

"Everything they said was right. I was a murderer. I tortured five wizards with the Cruciatus for three days, and finally killed them with the Death Curse. The wizarding court, Wizengamoor, sentenced me to life imprisonment in Ahmedabad. Zkaban, these are facts, I can't deny them..."

His voice was calm, his hard fingers gradually relaxed, and he looked at Lynn very seriously.

"But you know why Dumbledore, known as the greatest white wizard of the twentieth century, would be willing to be my advocate, and I would be released after Azkaban was locked up for eight years, and those who Are the wizards who hate me all pure blood?"

Lynn didn't avoid Professor Fox's gaze, he shook his head and said, "This is also the reason why I believe that Professor, you are not the kind of cold-blooded murderer they say, so you can tell me why this is ?"

Fox leaned on the back of the seat, but his body did not seem to relax. His deep eyes looked at the cup of black tea on the table that was no longer emitting heat, as if he did not want to recall his past.

"I'm actually quite optimistic about you, Lynn. You have qualities that most wizards don't have. After I sat at your house and listened to you about how you found an adoptive father yourself, I decided that you would definitely be assigned to Sri Lanka. One of the two houses, Lytherin and Gryffindor, at the time I thought Gryffindor was more likely. But even Slytherin is not incomprehensible, because the requirements of these two colleges to recruit students are extremely high Similarly, sometimes it's a matter of the Sorting Hat whether it's a little snake or a little lion..."

Professor Fox said a lot of things not related to Lynn's question, but Lynn didn't interrupt him, but listened quietly until he was willing to say it himself.

"When I was at Hogwarts, the divination professor at the time said I had no gift for prophecy, but I've never had such a strong intuition. Lynn, I think it's very likely that my life's research will be in I can't finish it when I die, it's something I can't accept, can't accept...so I need someone who can continue to follow my research.

Since I came out of Azkaban, I have met many wizards, but most of them are afraid of dark magic, let alone take the initiative to contact it, change it, and explore it.

There is no way, adult wizards have their own ideas and I can't change them. It happened that Dumbledore found me and told me that Hogwarts had vacant professors in several courses. I thought that I might use this opportunity to change a little wizard's view of black magic. After that, I chose you. "

"Your choice is very important to me, Lynn, it's about whether the path I've followed my whole life is the right one in the end, so I don't want you to misunderstand me. But..."

He picked up the hot black tea, took a sip, and said solemnly.

"I don't want to tell anyone about my past, everyone has their own secrets, and I'm no exception. But I can tell you that the five wizards I killed were not good people, you could even say they were A bastard of bastards, they used to have the notorious name of Death Eaters."

Lynn looked at Professor Fox in surprise.

"Are those followers of Fu... Mysterious Man?"

Professor Fox also looked a little surprised.

"I didn't expect you to already know that history. I thought I needed to explain to you the past that the entire British magic world is unwilling to recall."

"Since you understand, you should know why Dumbledore was willing to help me to argue, why I was released after eight years, and why those little wizards from pure-blood families hate me so much."

"Of course, we haven't known each other for a long time. I can understand even if you don't believe what I said, but Dumbledore and Minerva are the insiders of this matter. If you still have doubts in your heart, you can go to Ask them to see if what I say is true."

"No need, Professor." Lynn shook his head, "I haven't known you for a long time, but I have known Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall for even less time, and even Professor Dumbledore didn't know me at all. This first-year little wizard has two more to say. I believe what you say."

Lynn didn't want to have any contact with Dumbledore too early. He just wanted to live in Hogwarts first, honestly and diligently to learn magic. I don't want to be involved in the savior plan of the Principal because of any special performance.

And, he did believe what Professor Fox said.

Because the other party has no reason to deceive him, he is just a little wizard with a little potential and a little precocious personality. It is meaningless to make up such a lie for him that may be exposed at any time.

Lynn looked at Professor Fox impatiently.

"So professor, can you teach me black magic now?"

Professor Fox looked at Lynn with a dumbfounded laugh, but at this time he only looked like an eleven-year-old child.

"You think about black magic too simply, Lynn, this type of magic can be said to be the pinnacle of magic spells, and one of the most difficult to learn. At least 90% of adult wizards can't use even A cutting-edge black magic. Besides, at your age, even if you have the ability to learn it, you don't have enough magic power to use it."

Lynn looked at him puzzled: "Then what do I need to learn first?"

Professor Fox wiggled his finger at the bookcase, and a dark book floated over from the bookshelf, and then gently landed in front of Lynn.

The cover of that book had its title stamped in silver powder: The Book of Wicked Words.

"You should have seen in an excerpt from Standard Spells: Elementary that its author, Miranda Goshak, said this: Hexes, poisons, and curses are collectively called the Dark Curse. This book will not deal with that. Class spells.

The so-called black magic spell actually belongs to one of the magic spells. Like the magic spell, the black magic spell will exert a specific magical effect on the target, but the effect is mainly negative.

Moreover, black magic is also a kind of magic related to black magic, but the effect is not as overbearing and powerful as cutting-edge black magic. "

Professor Fox tapped the Book of Wicked Words.

"Spells are the least negative of the black spells, and they're easy to learn. There are many older wizards who will master a few spells to joke with their friends. This book There are a total of nine common curses recorded above, and the first step you have to do now is to learn all the curses in this book."
