"One of the chess players."
Luke had a proud look on his face.
Just before Gemma showed an expression of surprise, Luke himself ruthlessly poured out a basin of cold water.
"But he is also one of the chess pieces."
Looking at Gemma who was still hungry and stiff, Luke smiled and said: "What happened last night was the result of mutual use, rather than a simple victory for one party."
He didn't finish his words, and there was indeed no one who won completely. Even he has become the target or means of others' actions invisibly.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
But there is indeed a party that is completely defeated.
Voldemort's goal was ruined.
No matter what his goal is, there is no doubt that he is definitely not just trying to destroy Hogwarts and make a bad breath.
But even if this is the case, he has not achieved the most obvious purpose.
The four magical animals were obviously restrained by wisdom. Although their attacks seemed to frighten the students, the so-called near miss was that none of the students received any substantial harm.
There was no room for Voldemort's other goals to be implemented, because he was locked in the auditorium with Luke's words, and in the end he was attacked by the students behind him.
Of course, when Luke thought of this, he was instantly stunned.
He must not underestimate his opponent.
Gemma's head didn't turn around for a moment.
"I thought about it for a long time last night, and I think you planned this. That's why you were so prepared."
Gemma frowned and said a little disappointed.
"It's just a lack of information. Don't think too much. If you knew the information I know, you would be able to figure it out."
Luke did not remain mysterious, nor did he undermine Gemma's self-confidence. Instead, he smiled and comforted Gemma.
Gemma glanced at Luke, then nodded and said, "Then I will take the initiative to ask you more information."
"For now, if you ask."
Luke agreed naturally without too much embarrassment.
Then he looked at Hermione and asked with a smile: "What's your problem?"
Hermione looked at Luke, then frowned and asked, "You know how to cast the Patronus Charm, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the other three people present were stunned for a moment.
Gemma and Taylor looked at Luke with somewhat changed expressions.
"I thought you'd pay at least a magic item as a price."
Taylor looked at Luke in surprise and said something strangely reminiscent.
"Stop talking nonsense, do you think the Flint family can afford multiple high-level defensive magic tools?"
Luke said angrily: "Not to mention Wes coming home."
"So, Marcus is one of the chess pieces in your hand... he is a bait?"
Gemma turned the question to this aspect again, but Luke had no further response. If possible, he would rather not mess with these things.
He asked curiously: "How do you know?"
As he spoke, he took off the broken white gem from his belt and placed it on the table.
"The magic here is not the Patronus Spell, but a more ancient and mysterious amplification spell. I used it to strengthen the power of the Patronus Spell I released."
The good news is, Luke can cast the Patronus Charm, the bad news is, only a little.
"Can't this thing be replaced?"
Hermione picked up the gem with some surprise and said.
"Even if it can be replaced, how many complete gems can there be in such a large piece of stone that is imbued with a lot of magic and fixed with magic?"
Taylor looked at the gem in front of him with regret. Whether it was used as a magic prop or as a decoration, the preciousness of this thing was breathtaking.
Looking at Luke's fancy belt before, some people thought that this guy really loves to show off too much.
Now everyone will just lament that this guy is so rich that he is no longer a human being.
It is inlaid with multiple gems, and if each gem has a kind of magic attached to it, then this belt is enough to buy a large store, whether it is Diagon Alley or Knockturn Alley.
Forgive them. In their eyes, this is the bustling commercial street.
Perhaps for wizards, buying a Tuofan clothing store is similar to buying Chanel for Muggles?
Looking at the three people with regretful expressions on their faces, Luke looked somewhat strange.
Then he took out another gem from his belt, a complete, undamaged gem that even shone with a magical halo.
Then the regretful expressions of the three women quickly froze on their faces.
Luke did not put the things on his belt immediately, but put them back silently.
You have to pretend to be pitiful later, you can't show off like this.
"Do you have another piece?"
"Do you have another piece?"
Hermione asked the first question, and she put the emphasis on 'and'.
The second sentence was asked by Taylor. Her emphasis is on 'piece'.
Luke smiled politely: "I still have one on hand."
Before everyone could react, he immediately said: "There is another box in the treasure house, the kind of box with the traceless extension spell added."
As a result, Taylor and the others' breathing stagnated.
This was probably the first time they felt what an astronomical legacy an ancient pure-blood noble had left behind.
They used to have a lot of chips in Luke's hands, enough to buy enough properties and maintain a luxurious life, but also enough to complete his great goals.
But now it seems that poverty still limits their thinking.
Everything they had imagined before, that box of magic gems was enough.
And obviously, there can't be only magic gems in that treasure house. Of course the most valuable thing is not the magic gem.
According to rumors, the reason why Professor McGonagall was so kind to Luke was because Luke lent her a priceless magic notebook. This notebook is even so precious that it puts Professor McGonagall at a loss.
Some people also say that Luke dedicated the most precious treasure in the treasury to Professor McGonagall in order to seek the protection of Professor McGonagall.
Those who are familiar with Luke will certainly know that this is nonsense. But they all felt that the treasure that could make Professor McGonagall moved or even lose her temper should indeed be the most precious treasure in the entire treasure house.
But now it seems, I’m afraid it’s really not the case…
There was no complacency or pride on Luke's face, just a proud smile.
But for some reason, this smile seemed to them to be full of arrogance.
"Let's not talk about it." Luke straightened his expression, then looked at Hermione and asked seriously: "How did you guess that I didn't use the magic in the gem?"
"I'm not guessing, I feel it." Hermione corrected Luke's words, and then said: "When you use the Patronus Charm, it is basically the same as when you use the blazing flame, but it is different from when you use the Patronus Charm. The difference between spells such as flying spells and floating spells is not small."
Luke was stunned for a moment. He had felt like this before, but he thought it was the difference between the spell given by the system and the spell he learned. In other words, it was the difference brought about by the system, so he didn't care. .
But now, Hermione said she could feel such a difference?
In other words, does this difference exist objectively?
Luke looked at Tyler. Taylor, on the other hand, gave him a confused look. Obviously, she didn't know what was going on.
In other words, there is a difference between the magic spells given by the system and the natural magic spells...
So 'emotional control' is also in the talent column...
Luke seemed to sense a clue. So he looked at Hermione.
Hermione just shook her head and said: "Don't think so much. I can't tell what the difference is. The feeling is inexplicable."
As she spoke, she pointed to her eyes and said, "I thought about it all night last night."
The thick dark circles under her eyes told Luke that Hermione wasn't lying. She really didn't understand.
Luke did not move his gaze away from Hermione's face. He made Hermione feel a little shy.
And when he saw a blush flying on Hermione's face, he finally came back to his senses, and then said: "I'll take you to a place to take a look later. To be honest, I didn't really want to understand this." What’s going on.”
Hermione nodded, her eyes filled with indescribable heat. She is very interested in this kind of inquiry.
Luke looked at Taylor, smiled and asked, "Do you have any more questions?"
Taylor nodded, then looked at Luke and said, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Luke was stunned for a moment, looked at the slight smile on Taylor's face, and said with a puzzled look: "Is it you who dreamed last night?"
His words stunned Taylor for a moment.
Looking at Taylor's confused expression, Luke knew something.
Hermione had a look of confusion on her face. Gemma, on the other hand, looked ambiguous for a moment. His eyes kept changing between Tyler and Luke, and then he looked at Hermione with an expression of pity and a little pity.
Hermione still didn't know why.
Luke shook his head and said: "I had a very strange dream last night for no reason. I didn't think it at first, but now that you said it, I suddenly thought that someone might have caused it."
His expression also became a little serious, and he seemed to know who had done this to him. I just don’t know whether the other party has achieved its goal.
And does such a purpose have any bad influence on him?
But no matter what, some things seem to be prepared in advance now.
"I...just wanted to ask you if you had a good sleep."
Taylor pinched his clothes in embarrassment and said in a low voice.
Luke smiled and said, "Thank you then."
After saying that, he turned around and said, "Eat first, I'm starving."
Then he feasted on the breakfast on the plate. I can't wait to bury my face in the plate.
After breakfast, they got a day off because of last night's incident. Of course, students who know a little bit about it know that this is at the expense of their own homework pressure.
After all, those classes have less time, but the knowledge you have to learn will not be less.
Experienced professors are not unprepared to face all this.
Although what happened last night was beyond their expectations, the plan had already been made.
Luke walked leisurely towards the principal's office.
There are very few students here.
Although Dumbledore seems very amiable and approachable, students generally grow up listening to stories about Dumbledore, good or bad.
Such a legendary figure, no matter how close he is, is still distant to ordinary students.
Anyway, Luke would never think that any other ordinary student could enter the principal's office casually like himself.
Even Gemma, the famous top student in Hogwarts, couldn't get such an opportunity.
"professor."
Approaching the office, Luke saw Dumbledore sitting in his seat reviewing documents, and then Luke curled his lips.
If others didn't know, how could he know that Dumbledore had left most of the writing work about the school to Professor McGonagall. This familiar style gave him a strange sense of déjà vu.
So all Dumbledore had to do was sign the documents that had been sorted, reviewed, and even given opinions in the morning.
"Oh! Luke, you're here!"
Dumbledore looked up and saw Luke, with a bright smile on his face. Looks very happy. Then he pushed aside the pile of documents in his hands and took out his candy from his drawer.
"Here, try my new candy."
Luke couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he looked at those Halloween-flavored candies.
"No, forget it, Professor."
Luke sat carelessly on the chair opposite Dumbledore.
"What a shame!"
Without any regret, Dumbledore quickly took back the candy that was placed opposite Luke and placed it in front of his eyes.
Luke looked at Dumbledore, watching him happily eating candy, and finally couldn't help but asked: "Professor, don't you have any news to tell me?"
Dumbledore didn't show any doubts when Luke asked. He just smiled and said, "If they didn't tell you themselves, I don't seem to be in a position to tell you either."
Luke frowned and looked at Dumbledore opposite, not knowing what to say for a moment.
After all, if the old man in front of him really wanted to cheat, few people would be able to take any countermeasures.
With such a strong strength, any distractions or threats will lose their original effect.
What's more, the old man in front of him is almost alone and has almost no flaws.
Seeing Luke's deflated expression, Dumbledore smiled from the bottom of his heart.
"I really can't tell you, this is also part of the agreement."
But before Luke was disappointed, he winked at Luke and said, "But this might be a good thing for you."
Luke's face was expressionless: "Are you planning to give me a test? It's funny..."
After saying that, Luke stood up and prepared to leave.
Dumbledore looked at his back, the smile on his face still maintained.
Luke turned back abruptly: "Those guys have something to do with Salazar Slytherin."
But Dumbledore just smiled.
"It's boring."
Luke said, shaking his head.
Then left the principal's office.
His plan also failed today.
