Jon was recalling Professor Mag's words when he came out of the classroom, but he didn't notice that the three people behind him were all listless.
It wasn't until the four of them sat down in the magic classroom that Jon realized the strangeness of his three roommates.
"What's wrong with you? Why didn't you talk on the way here? "
"Nothing." Stephen looked up, and Jon saw a strange light in his eyes. "We heard you talking to Professor Mag just now. Don't worry, Jon."
Don't worry about what? I'm more worried about you guys like this, right?
Fran and Scully also looked up, and said in a swearing tone, "Yes, Professor Mag is right. Hufflepuff is a powerful academy, and we should restore its glory. Jon, we will work hard!"
Jon: "…"
He was still confused. Could it be that he had just lost his memory? What did Professor Mag say to motivate them?
He wasn't in the mood to deliberately understand the strange inner world of the little boys. Jon felt that it might be a good thing to give them some motivation to learn magic in this way. After all, the magic world was going to be turbulent in the next few years.
But would the changes in the future really develop according to the book's description?
Jon couldn't say for sure.
The professor of magic spells, Professor Filius Flick, was a short man. He had to stand on a stack of books to reach the table, but no one looked down on the professor of magic spells with a sharp voice.
Compared to magic spells and magic potions, magic spells were always the students' favorite subject.
Jon, who had just been taught by Professor Mag to focus, also showed excellent learning ability and won — after all, he had already mastered these elementary spells.
The teaching method of Hogwarts was very different from Jon's self-study method. They taught students to use their own emotions to guide the magic in their body to cast the corresponding spells. This method could help students quickly master magic in the early stage, but they might have to put in more effort to learn how to control their own emotions later on.
Not letting fear, excitement, and other emotions affect the release of magic was a necessary lesson to become a qualified Wizard.
Jon had skipped the initial steps and lacked a substantial understanding of the essence of casting spells. Although he had made up for this through diligence, he still encountered many problems when he began to try the next step of magic directly.
Lunch was mashed potatoes and toast, vegetable salad, ham and drumsticks, and pumpkin juice.
Jon was very dissatisfied with the Hogwarts lunches, especially when the food was so monotonous. The pumpkin porridge was acceptable, but he really didn't like the pumpkin juice.
However, watermelons were not abundant in the UK, and Hogwarts could not supply watermelon juice on a large scale.
Jon switched a bottle of water for himself and decided to write home to get some tea leaves. At least the Hogwarts would still provide hot water.
He finally knew why Béla liked McDonald's so much.
After experiencing the morning class, he was now looking forward to the Dream class at night. Helga promised to talk to him every night, and it wouldn't be too long. This way, he could reduce the consumption of his magic. He wondered what the results of the book he gave Helga yesterday were.
Compared to the morning class, the afternoon class was much more boring.
Professor Sprout was a very gentle witch — perhaps gentleness was a tradition of Hufflepuff — this professor treated every student with a smile and was not stingy with giving extra points to her own students.
Remembering things was Jon's strength, so the classification of herbs was not a problem for Jon. He deliberately finished the task behind a few students of Ravenclaw College so that he could get extra points and not be in the limelight.
But the Potions class was not as simple as it seemed.
Without the bonus from the "Half-Blood Prince" potion book, Jon could only be a normal student, even though he was not very accomplished in the field of Potions.
Jon deliberately avoided Snape's gaze. He did not look down on this class because it was boring. He still wanted to concoct the Bloodline Purification Potion. Speaking of which, the Bloodline Purification Potion was created by Salazar Slythrin. When he had time, he could ask Helga about it.
Jon's effort was not shown on the surface. He and Stephen were in the same group to concoct the potion, but Stephen seemed to be more hardworking than him. Jon deliberately controlled the speed of his group so that they would not attract too much of Snape's attention.
He could not wait for Snape to spend all his energy on Slythrin's students. That way, he would only need to pay attention in class.
Snape did not disappoint Jon. As expected, he did not pay much attention to Hufflepuff's students.
Praise and criticism were all from Slythrin. Hufflepuff's silence prevented them from being scolded harshly by Snape.
It seemed that Snape had not become so perverted before Harry Potter entered the school.
It would not be so easy next year.
Jon successfully endured until the end of class. He did not choose to return to the common lounge with Stephen and the rest. Instead, he asked Stephen to help him bring the crucible back. He made an excuse to walk around the castle and when no one was around, he went to the library on the fifth floor.
The library was a good place to think. Most importantly, school had just started and there were not many people here. When there were more people in the future, he might have to change his location.
Jon randomly grabbed a book from the shelf. He was not interested in reading the collection in the "Forbidden Books Section". Unforgivable curses were not the only ones with great killing power. Moreover, he remembered the unforgivable curses that appeared many times in the original work.
No matter when, mastering a foreign language was indeed a very helpful thing.
Jon took a book called "Guide to a Magical Life" from the shelf. There were many Wizard's social customs from a long time ago. It was rather interesting, so Jon was able to continue reading.
The Wizard's life reflected the magical environment at that time. For example, in the pre-Christian era, the Wizard's ability was still very outstanding. He could create a miracle like the "Stonehenge" by communicating with the heavens and earth. However, in the Middle Ages, the Wizard's ability was greatly weakened. Even the Wizard could not withstand an epidemic like the Black Death.
Back then, the Church had used the Black Death as an excuse to spread rumors about sorcerers. This was because the Black Death originated from a hygiene problem among the Europeans, not a curse. On the other hand, the sorcerers at that time were not like how they were now. They were still divided into the ridiculous factions of dark sorcerers and light sorcerers.
Jon did not think that kindness was wrong, but it was problematic to be so kind that he did not have the power to fight back.
