Chapter 42 Will Become Malfoy-Chan

After quickly turning off the projection of the password, Les glanced at Daphne guiltily. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the little girl. Maybe she didn't see the whole password clearly, or maybe she thought that sentence was correct.

After using his authority to change the password back, Rice said the statue's password for the third time: open.

This time there was movement.

The huge stone face moved, and its mouth opened, forming a huge black hole. After the entrance to the cave appeared, there was a rustling sound inside, as if something was moving in the mouth of the statue.

Les's expression changed, and he immediately recognized it. This was the snake king he had left in the secret room that had been awakened. He immediately gave new instructions: go back and hide, and then the sounds in the cave gradually stopped.

"What is that?" Daphne was not deaf, so she naturally heard the sound of the Snake King moving.

After Les gave her a brief explanation, Daphne fell silent.

So there's a giant snake over twenty feet long hidden in the statue? Daphne didn't want to get in now.

It’s a matter of opinion whether sewer pipes harboring filth and dirt are more disgusting, or whether a tunnel hiding a giant snake is more psychologically uncomfortable.

Rice didn't notice the change in the girl's mentality and led Daphne straight into the statue's mouth.

Different from the first impression given by the appearance, the tunnel inside the statue is spacious and flat, and there are even candlesticks installed on the wall every few steps. But now that the candlesticks were empty, Les could only summon a flame for lighting.

There were traces of large snakes crawling on the ground, obviously left by the snake king. Daphne was still a little worried, fearing that she would encounter the terrifying monster at a certain corner. Fortunately, the snake king hid very thoroughly, and she could not find any trace of the basilisk until she reached the end of the tunnel.

"Actually, the spell here is similar to the spell on the wall in the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron. In the future, you will be able to detect it when you master the magic more deeply." Les stood in front of a thick stone wall and talked to Daphne. .

After he said this, Daphne became curious about what the world looked like in Les' eyes.

"Me? Just like ordinary people, but my perception of magic power will be more acute. Of course, if I notice something strange and focus the magic power on my eyes, what I see will indeed change, and I can see the flow of magic power. .

For example, now, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is an ordinary wall, but in my eyes, the whole wall is shimmering with magic. "

Daphne opened her eyes wide and stared at the wall seriously, but her eyes were sore from looking at it and she could not sense the flow of magic in the wall.

"You're still a little underheated now, but you'll be fine in the future." After a little comfort to the little girl, Rice pressed the wand against a stone brick.

"Just count seven blocks down and seven blocks horizontally." With a poke of the wand, the stone bricks sank in and then disappeared. Then, like a chain reaction, the entire stone wall disappeared, exposing the exit.

Coming out of the tunnel, Daphne recognized where they were: next to the underground dock where they had arrived by boat on the day of the opening ceremony.

On the way back to the common room, Daphne couldn't help but ask about the content of tomorrow's teaching. Les told her that he planned to let her brush up on today's flying magic, and then teach her a practical protective spell.

This spell has a simplified version in the modern magic world, called the Iron Armor Curse. It is a relatively advanced spell that many Hogwarts graduates cannot use.

In Les' opinion, this spell is far less effective than the defensive magic he taught Daphne - it is too rigid and cannot be used by beginners due to its high requirements on spellcasters. However, for magic masters, this spell has the upper limit. It's not tall enough and feels a bit flashy. Unlike one's own defensive magic, beginners can use it after a period of practice, but the defense is relatively weak, but as the caster's strength increases, the spell's defense can be stacked up almost infinitely.

As expected by Les, Daphne learned the spell in just one day. She can mobilize her magic power to form a thin protective shield in front of herself. Although it may not be able to stop the bricks thrown at her, it is still a breakthrough from zero to one, and the rest is only left to time.

This can't help but surprise Les: he has found a treasure, and his skills have been inherited.

After taking the class seriously for a week, Les began to adjust his life rhythm to a state he was satisfied with.

What, just a History of Magic session on Monday? Great, my weekend will be three days from now on. What, the professor gave me a lot of homework? It’s not a big problem. Daphne, come here and I’ll check your homework...

After returning to Hogwarts, Les' life has become much more nourishing: he no longer has to prepare lessons every day, worry about stupid and crazy medieval semi-literate little wizards, and he no longer has to deal with the mess caused by energetic students.

After some comparison, Les felt an inexplicable sense of happiness. Especially when he saw Professor Snape cursing and busy dealing with the mess left by his students, he would be glad that he was not the dean of the college now.

Malfoy, who had had conflicts with him before, seemed to have complained to his father, but Lucius Malfoy seemed to have no intention of standing up for him for the time being. Malfoy, who failed to get his father's support, quickly forgot about the small friction between him and Les and turned to target the child named Harry Potter.

Les could see that he wanted to be friends with Potter at first, but the reputation of Slytherin College dragged him down, directly strangling the budding friendship between the two in the cradle.

Of course, the bad reputation of the college was only a secondary factor, and Malfoy's bad character was the main reason. He was high-profile, flamboyant, and disgusting. If he didn't have a good father, he would have been locked in the toilet and beaten by the senior students in the college.

In the first week of school, Malfoy kept showing off his "distinguished" family background to the people around him. In the second week, the topic became Quidditch. He talked about flying all day and complained loudly at the dining table that first-year students were not eligible to join the college Quidditch team.

He liked to run near Daphne and brag loudly about his childhood flying stories. The content of the stories changed a lot, but the result was always the same: Draco Malfoy, who was good at flying, narrowly avoided a Muggle helicopter.

Daphne, who had already experienced the beauty of flying, didn't care about it at first, but Malfoy was so annoying, so she finally couldn't help it.

"At that time, my hair was only a few inches away from the propeller, and I could even feel the strong whirlwind..." Malfoy's story came to an end as usual, but was interrupted by a girl's voice.

"Are you sure it was only a few inches?" Daphne glanced at him.

"Of course!" Malfoy patted his chest and assured.

Daphne didn't say anything. She had heard of helicopters, a Muggle vehicle. After she and Rice briefly described the structure of the helicopter, Rice turned a pair of knives and forks on the table into the shape of a helicopter, and turned a piece of grilled steak into a little man riding a flying broom.

In Malfoy's confused eyes, Daphne controlled the little man to fly to the helicopter floating in the air, and then...

Pah!

The little man was sucked in by the propeller and was instantly turned into meat sauce.

The meat sauce and grease splashed everywhere, and a drop directly smeared on the face of Malfoy, who was completely stunned.

"So how did you manage to hold on? Or has the Malfoy family's medical technology advanced far enough to restore the meat paste to a human body?" Daphne looked at Malfoy with a smile on her face.

Malfoy: ...

Daphne killed the discussion.
