Rubik's Cube of Heavens - Chapter 137

A few days later, the semester ended.

During the final dinner, Dumbledore showed his favoritism like the original plot and found an excuse to add a lot of House points to the protagonist trio and the little fatty Neville.

A few dozen-plus points made everyone gradually realize that something was wrong.

But Dumbledore still looked calm and collected. He didn’t care about other people’s opinions.

After all, he was doing this to continue to improve Harry Potter’s confidence and make Harry completely fall in love with Hogwarts as soon as possible, making him feel the same sense of belonging toward Hogwarts.

And Dumbledore’s bias caused Slytherin, who was originally ranked first by Hogwarts, to be suppressed by Gryffindor in the end.

For the next year, the decorative flags in the auditorium would be hung with Gryffindor’’s red lion flag.

Snape was very surprised on the side. Obviously, Dumbledore did not tell him in advance.

In addition, Dumbledore did not add points to Coven. He did not mention anything about Coven at all. This was because he had already discussed it with Coven.

Since Coven was willing to be the last insurance of Harry Potter, then he might as well hide Coven and let Harry Potter stand out and be the target to attract firepower.

In this way, the banquet began with the other three houses celebrating it, apart from Slytherin.

Of course, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff participated in the celebration because Slytherin House had finally been swept off the altar and ended their long streaks of winning House Cups…

This made Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff see hope and hope that they could also get House Cup…

……

The next day, the holiday began, and all the students left school and returned home.

In the next holiday, Coven became full again.

Because there were still people in the outside world who were interested in asking about him, Coven basically did not go out during the holidays. Even if he needed to go out, he drank the ‘Polyjuice potion’ in advance and became a different appearance.

During the whole holiday, Coven almost lived two lines of life. Most of the time, he stayed in the ‘Wonderful House’, and for a small part of the time, took advantage of Dumbledore’s free time to go back to Hogwarts to receive some lessons from the other party.

Dumbledore’s private books were all Advanced knowledge, and they were all dangerous magic spells. The difficulty of learning was unusually high.

For example, the Advanced magic spell of the fire element in that book.

Among them, the flame of the Divine Fire Curse was a flame that could not be extinguished unless there was a reverse curse.

Its flame could even be burned in the water, in the water, not on the water.

The Fire Curse had many forms, and each form had a corresponding control spell. Just these ten or so spells took Coven a long time to master completely.

As for the Hell-Fire, which was also the ‘Magic Fire Curse’, it could only be extinguished by the reverse curse.

However, unlike the Divine Flame, the control of Hell-Fire was extremely difficult.

The control incantation of the Hell-Fire was not as many as the Divine Flame, and there was only one.

However, even if there were the slightest mistake in controlling it, it would cause Hell-Fire to be freed from the control of the caster.

Hell-Fire seemed to have his own soul, which would automatically form the image of fear in the enemy’s heart and automatically chase after the enemy to eliminate it.

After losing control, it would be even more difficult for him to control the fire. He would follow everything around him, regardless of whether it was friend or foe. Only when there was truly nothing that could be ignited would he extinguish it on his own.

Even if he used the anti-curse, just one person could not control it.

That required more people to work together to release the anti-curse. Only then could it be extinguished with great difficulty.

In addition, Divine Fire and Hell-Fire could be combined with many other spells to form some special effects.

For example, by combining it with ‘Floo Network’, one could connect the fireplace on both sides with flames to form a picture of fire.

There was no need to go over. One could observe the scene around the fireplace on the other side through the flames and could even communicate like a video call.

The visual effect was very magical, and it would form the faces of the two sides of the fireplace, which would be formed by flames to communicate.

For example, when combined with the ‘Oath Curse’, the person who violated the oath would be automatically detected by the flames and thus be harmed by the flames.

There were many other ways of combining.

Dumbledore had once given an example to Coven.

Back then, the first Dark Lord, Grindelwald, had used the ‘Fire Curse’ to combine the ‘Loyalty Curse’ and set up a screening mechanism.

Thus, Grindelwald easily identified who was truly loyal to him and who had ulterior motives.

A loyal follower could easily pass through the flames without suffering any harm. On the other hand, when passing through the flames, they would be instantly burned to ashes by the fierce flames.

This led to the many loyal followers of Greenwich in the past, and the catastrophe he caused almost covered the entire western magic world.

Unlike Voldemort, whose followers were either afraid of his strength and cruelty, or some nobles who only used him to achieve some benefits.

By Voldemort’s side, there were only a few who were truly loyal to him.

Speaking of which….

Just the two flame series spells in the book made Coven spend half a holiday to master them.

Then, Dumbledore began to teach Coven the ‘Traceless Spell’.

The ordinary ‘stretch curse’ could be used to make a temporary ‘space bag’, allowing the container’s interior to expand and accommodate more things.

And the Advanced usage had to be combined with Alchemy. It could be used to enchant the package and permanently solidify the internal space that it expanded.

Therefore, Coven certainly learned some ‘Alchemy’ from Dumbledore.

After all, because Nicholas Flamel had lived for more than six hundred years, he was remembered by many people with ill intentions, so he almost never showed up.

In this way, some Alchemy knowledge that needed to be taught face-to-face would not be able to be taught to Coven.

Dumbledore, who was also an ‘Alchemy’ master, just made up for this regret, allowing Coven to continue to improve ‘Alchemy’.

With all this, Coven’s vacation could be said to be very fulfilling, which also made him look forward to Dumbledore’s other private books.

…

…

At the opening dinner of the new school year, there was a new “Defense Against The Dark Arts” professor, as usual this year.

Gilderoy Lockhart was a middle-aged male wizard who was like a peacock who wore very revealing clothes.

He was the only one among the professors with a headdress, so he did not wear a wizard’s hat.

It was unknown what kind of shampoo or hair gel Professor Lockhart used, but his hair shone with all colors under the candlelight.

Coven was very sure of this.

The reason why he paid so much attention to Gilderoy Lockhart was that when Coven first looked at him, he clearly saw that his hair was shining with a green light.

Therefore, Coven deliberately observed and wanted to see what the frequency of the green light was…
