In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

"Then if Gabrielle goes to a magic school in the future, will her enrollment be based on her soul age or her physical age?"

Lily did not give a clear answer to his question, she shook her head and said.

"There is no precedent for this, but according to Hogwarts' normal admission standards for 11-year-old students, it should be based on her mental age."

While they were talking, Nick's originally gray-white body began to become noticeably lighter.

The potion prepared by Lily has an immediate effect, and the petrification effect is being removed.

While waiting for Nick to recover, Lily did not forget to look at the mandrake blade in Jon's hand and remind him.

"If you plan to try to learn Animagus, it's best to do it under the guidance of Professor McGonagall. This kind of magic is very dangerous, and there are many cases of failure in history."

"Don't worry, I'll pay attention, Professor."

Although Jon agreed, he actually had no intention of going to Mag.

After all, the Animagus form he wanted to complete was different from that of a normal wizard. Except for those who knew the ring on his hand, there was no way to provide any help.

Soon, the changes in Nick's body became more and more obvious. The grayish white on his body had completely faded away. The originally frightened expression on his face gradually began to loosen, and his mind regained control over his soul.

After recovering from the petrified state, Nick immediately floated up from the hospital bed.

He looked at Jon with a proud look on his face.

"17! I've been counting! There are 17 in total!"

Even while petrified, he still maintained his awareness of the outside world and clearly knew what he and Jon had experienced.

Lily packed up the materials on the table and was a little confused about the numbers Nick said.

"17 what?"

Jon held his forehead.

"17 death curses."

After hearing his words, Lily just thought about it briefly and guessed what it was.

"You used the petrified Nick as a shield?"

"Hi! Jon is simply a genius! We work together perfectly. I help him form an absolute defense, and he attacks! In that maze, we defeated countless opponents!"

Nick was visibly excited.

He didn't mind being used as a shield to block the death curse. The ghost had already become like this. No matter what he did, it was impossible to die again. But following Jon's adventure this time was definitely exciting, enough to make him do other things in the future. Use it as capital to brag in front of the little wizard.

Lily seemed to have a strong appetite for complaining about Jon's whims.

"That's really something most people wouldn't think of."

Nick, who had just recovered, was obviously a little excited. According to his description, being petrified felt like being stuffed into an extremely small space. He couldn't move anything in his body and it was very uncomfortable.

After recovering, he couldn't stop floating in the air for a moment, then left Lily's office and wandered around the temporary school.

Jon also said goodbye to Lily and left here. He waited until night and saw a full moon rising in the sky before putting the piece of mandrake into his mouth. In order to prevent it from being swallowed accidentally, It was specially placed under the tongue.

However, Jon still underestimated the difficulty of learning Animagus.

This leaf only lasted less than three days in his mouth, and he accidentally swallowed it mixed with milk during breakfast.

After drinking the milk, Jon was stunned. He clearly felt the feeling of the leaf that he had held in his mouth for three days sliding down his esophagus.

Hermione, who was sitting next to him, noticed something was wrong with his expression and couldn't help asking curiously.

"What's wrong?"

Jon was not discouraged. This was just the first step, and the leaves of mandrake were not toxic, so it would not be a big deal if eaten.

"Nothing. By the way, what were you talking about yesterday." He changed the subject.

Ron raised a Starlight newspaper in his hand.

"The Quidditch World Cup originally scheduled for this year was postponed. It was said that the final of this game was initially scheduled to be held in the UK, but obviously the current situation was not suitable. So they postponed the game to Next summer, if there is another accident, the venue will probably be changed.”

Jon took the newspaper from him and saw the news that the Quidditch World Cup had been postponed.

There is nothing that can be done about this. Judging from the current situation in Europe, Quidditch cannot be held even if it is not in the UK. First of all, teams from the UK and France cannot participate, including those from nearby Ireland, Spain, Switzerland and others have also been affected.

It would be safest to wait until next year, when the bet on the outcome of the Triwizard Tournament that the whole of Europe is paying attention to comes out, to consider whether to continue holding the competition.

Hanton said with some pity.

"I also want to look forward to the teams in the World Cup showing their superb skills. It seems that we can only wait until next year."

When he was at Hogwarts Castle, he was a little envious of the Quidditch games played by the purebloods. Not long ago, he finally had the opportunity to actually play with a broomstick at Durmstranghamton.

Moreover, Ron was an avid football fan. Even when he was wanted, Arthur secretly took his sons to watch some Quidditch League games and told Hanton many stories about the team and some Professional court technical moves.

Jon had little interest in the sport of Quidditch.

Because in the first grade, he could fly directly without relying on a broomstick, so he stopped trying to play ball on a broomstick from the beginning.

"Nick has been bragging about his and your experience in the Arctic to everyone these days."

Ron said with an envious look.

"It's a pity that we didn't go with him on the last trip."

"It's no pity, it's really too dangerous there." Jon shook his head and said, "The final escape from there had more to do with luck. If Nick hadn't happened to be petrified and could block the death curse, then I'd say Maybe I gave up and came back with Gabrielle a long time ago.”

Jon was telling the truth. The narrow space was too restrictive for him. If it hadn't been for Nick, he would have been killed by the Death Curse.

After breakfast, Jon ran to Lily's office again, asked for a new piece of mandrake from her, and put it in his mouth again.

This time he paid more attention. Whenever he encountered someone using his mouth, he would deliberately suppress the blade. In the following days, Hermione and others were often surprised because his accent became vague when he spoke.

There is another chapter. It seems that the starting point is normal today. I woke up and felt
