Harry had never been so happy. It was like Christmas. He swore that he would engrave the scene in front of him and Umrich's begging face into his mind. He would never forget it for the rest of his life.
When he and Elwyn left Umrich's office, they were still a little dizzy, but they had a smile on their faces.
After passing through a dark corridor, Harry calmed down. After the great joy, there was worry.
Umrich would definitely take revenge, and they would be expelled from the school!
Harry didn't care at all. It was enough to see Umrich's bad luck. He had wanted to do this for a long time. He wanted to rush up and beat the old toad up.
However, Elwyn did better. He used her quill to leave the "I can't lie" mark on her face.
He used her own evil method and her own blood to teach her a lesson that she would remember for the rest of her life. He wanted to see if she would be embarrassed to deliberately distort the truth in the future. If Harry was Umrich, he would probably be too ashamed to go out and meet people in the future.
Think about it, how was she going to explain the scar on her face to others?
Also, how was she going to explain the meaning of the sentence "I can't lie"?
There was no way to explain it. At least, Harry couldn't think of any way to explain it. He knew from Elwyn that because it was caused by witchcraft, it was very difficult to erase the line of words. It might take a very long time to disappear. If it couldn't be erased, she would carry this shame forever.
Everyone who saw her in the future would know that she was lying and that she was a person who couldn't be trusted.
This was what she deserved. No one deserved this punishment more than she did.
"Elwyn, how did you do it?" Harry couldn't help but ask, "Is it the magic on the quill?"
"Oh, it's a witchcraft that sacrifices the user's own blood. It's similar in nature to our black magic. As long as you understand the operating principle, it's easy to break it and change the target of the sacrifice."
Harry nodded, not really understanding. He only needed to know the effect.
After this, Umrich would never use that kind of quill again. Elwyn's behavior tonight would probably leave an indelible shadow in her heart.
"By the way, what should we do now?" Harry took a deep breath and said. He was prepared to be fired.
"Of course, we are going to find Professor Meg!" Elwyn said calmly, "Although the problem with Professor Umrich's quill is her own business, we'd better inform other professors to deal with this accident."
"Hmm, an accident?!" Harry blinked and suddenly realized that they might not be fired!
Yes, they did not actively attack Umrich, and they did not even disobey her orders. She asked Elwyn to copy the sentences until she was satisfied, and Elwyn did as she said. The only problem was the black quill.
As for the quill, it was Umrich who provided it to them …
In the end, the matter was settled with the intervention of Dumbledore and Professor Meg. As for Umrich's accusations, Elwyn denied all of them. He insisted that the problem was with the quill that Umrich gave him, and he did not do anything to it.
Elwyn would not admit that he had that kind of ability. He even said that he did not know what magic was on the quill.
Think about it, this was the "normal" level of a little wizard at Hogwarts. There was nothing wrong with what Elwyn said.
This kind of dangerous witchcraft and magic items were always like this. It was easy to have all kinds of problems, and even accidentally hurt oneself.
Therefore, Elwyn told Umrich not to use this kind of quill to punish students. It was too dangerous!
In the end, even Dumbledore said that the witchcraft on the quill was very unstable, and it was normal for it to have problems. Therefore, this incident was not because Elwyn violated the school rules and attacked Umrich, but it was just an "accident".
Although anyone with a discerning eye could tell what was going on, and that Umbridge's face was still bleeding, there was nothing she could do. There was no evidence at all, and no matter who she found to investigate, it would be the same. On the surface, Ivan did not attack her, and instead did exactly as she said …
Umrich could only admit that she was unlucky. If she wanted to cause trouble for Elwyn again, she would have to use a better method.
It was very bad of her to use such a dangerous magic item to punish students, and Dumbledore had clearly told her to stop using it. It would be very bad for Umrich's image if word got out, and she did not want more people to know about it.
She hated Elwyn to death now, but there was nothing she could do.
No matter how she looked at it, she could not hold Elwyn responsible for this matter, and should instead praise him.
This was because Elwyn had loyally carried out Umrich's orders, even though he clearly knew that such a request was unreasonable.
It was not until a few hours later that Elwyn learned from Professor Meg that Umrich had ungracefully shouted in Dumbledore's office, asking the principal to expel Elwyn and Harry immediately. This was completely different from her usual pretense.
She kept mentioning the Ministry of Magic and Foggy, but Dumbledore did not fall for it.
As expected, he directly rejected Umrich's unreasonable request.
He told Umrich that such a request was unreasonable, and that even the principal of Hogwarts could not expel students for no reason.
Others did not have such a right, and neither did the senior investigators or the Ministry of Magic.
However, he promised to strengthen the management of Elwyn and Harry. Elwyn should stop immediately when he discovered that there was a problem with the quill, and not continue to carry out Umrich's orders, which would cause her great harm …
Since Elwyn and Harry were students of Gryffindor Academy, Dumbledore let Professor Meg decide on their punishment and the rest of their confinement, and suggested that Umrich go to St. Mungo Hospital as soon as possible to have the scar on her face treated …
Professor Meg prepared biscuits for the two of them, and also gave them twenty points each for completing their Transfiguration homework well.
The praise was self-evident. If Umrich knew, she would probably go mad with anger. After a series of warnings, Professor Meg let Elwyn and Harry go back and told them that their confinement was over. The whole process had taken less than half an hour.
In the Gryffindor Academy's common room, they were greeted with a carnival. Everyone was celebrating that they had taught Umrich a lesson.
