The attitude of the witch outside the door was very clear.
It would be great if he was willing to leave, but if he wasn't, he would just wait until the execution time was over.
However, magic had a time limit. He could afford to wait, but magic couldn't. Once the time limit was over, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
There was only one last road sign left. As long as it was completed, the agreement between the association and the Black Devil would be over, and he would be the greatest contributor.
Holding the cup of water, Edmund narrowed his eyes and quickly calculated the possibility of completing the plan ahead of time.
Although he was trapped in the basement, it didn't mean that he was willing to be trapped here.
Since the original execution time wasn't feasible, he would carry out the plan ahead of time and take one last gamble. If he couldn't, he would leave the mess to the Black Wizard in England.
Touching the piano case with his left hand, Edmund lay down on the bed again.
He would take a good rest first. When night came, it would be his home field.
…
In the study room of the Hufflepuff Magic Research Society, Hogwarts …
Jon was finishing the homework for his class on transformation and his paper for his class on magic spells. Sitting behind him, Farren and Scully were also working hard.
Stephen, the only one who wasn't present, had finished the homework a week ago when it was first assigned. This student who wasn't present was probably somewhere communicating with Eddie from Ravenclaw College.
Homework wasn't difficult for Jon, and the paper was a piece of cake. After finishing these tasks in a hurry, Jon said goodbye to his two roommates who were sitting behind him and went straight back to the dorm.
Stephen was already waiting for him in the dorm.
"How did it go?"
Stephen made a 'done' gesture. "He agreed. He also accepted your bracelet, but he said he had to ensure his safety. I'll agree on your behalf."
Having been involved in the management of the Magic Research Society for so long, Stephen was really good at this kind of thing.
Eleven years old was actually not very young. Only those children who were protected in an ivory tower by their parents could still be so innocent at this age.
"How did you do it? Even I find him tricky. "
Stephen smiled mysteriously and leaned close to Jon. "Because I'm Stephen. It's a secret."
Fine, a secret it was.
Jon didn't really want to know what Stephen did. Compared to the results that had been achieved, the process wasn't that important.
She just didn't know how the current stubborn Eddie had turned into the Eddie who had a carefree personality in the original novel.
"By the way, are you going?"
Inside Stefen's bed, Jon leaned against the bed ladder and watched Stefen looking for something in the storage rack.
"Go where?"
Stephen was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"I'm not going. I'm not as reckless as you guys. Besides, you'd better take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Eddie. I won't disturb you guys."
"You make it sound like I'm going to do something bad." Jon raised his eyebrows. "I'm serious about this. Don't say those useless things. Your strength is much better than Eddie's."
"Not going."
Stephen said bluntly, "Good students never go out at night."
"…" Alright.
After coming out from Stephen's bed, Jon tidied up his clothes and left the dorm.
Earlier in the evening, he received a note from Professor Sprout, asking him to go to the office.
Although Jon didn't know why he was suddenly called, he was still prepared to deal with it.
Soon after.
"Professor, can I come in?"
Chown respectfully knocked on the door of the office. After a while, Professor Sprout's kind voice sounded from the inside.
"Come in."
Professor Sprout was sitting behind the desk. It seemed that he had been waiting for a while.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, professor. Is there anything you need me to do?"
"Sit, Jon." Professor Sprout had his usual smile on his face. "Here's the thing, Professor Flick and I have a discussion. We want to let a few junior Ravenclaw students join our Magic Research Society. What do you think of this proposal?"
Ravenclaw students? What's going on? Are they here to steal my knowledge?
Jon was silent, but he also knew that the fact that Professor Sprout called him here meant that she had no opinion on this matter. She called him here out of habit.
For a long time, whenever there was something related to the Magic Research Society, Professor Sprout would at least say a few words to Jon. This was because Jon was more mature and could give a lot of good suggestions.
Jon didn't think there was a problem. Other people didn't know, but his opinion still carried some weight in the society.
"This is not a problem. If it's just junior students, it won't affect us. Professor, you can agree. I'm sure everyone will be hospitable."
The Magic Research Society's improved spells were not taught in the first and second years. Professor Flick must have some new students that he valued. Under the premise that he couldn't violate the rules, he could only use this method to teach.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it was a matter of face. Although the senior students of Ravenclaw had learned Hufflepuff's improved spells, they didn't have the inclination to teach them to their juniors. If they taught them, it would be tantamount to admitting that their own spells were not as good as Hufflepuff's. Not to mention Ravenclaw, which had always been known for its wisdom, the students of Gryffindor and Slythrin wouldn't accept this kind of thing.
Except for Béla, she had already gotten the improved spells from Jon, but she didn't teach them. Instead, she beat Jon up to show that she was righteous on the surface.
An academy with the strictest admission requirements had lost to an academy with the least stringent admission requirements. This kind of thing would be difficult for adults to accept even if it happened to adults, let alone children who were easily impulsive.
That was why Professor Flick could come up with this idea. The students could join a club in their spare time. Which club in the school was not composed of students from multiple academies?
To outsiders, it was an exchange of learning and mutual learning. No one would lose out.
Jon didn't think the original intention of this matter was "no one would lose out," but he did have a way to make this matter "no one would lose out." By then, the students of which academy would learn more.
With Jon's support, Professor Sprout was a lot more relaxed.
So the witch wrote a reply to Professor Flick on the spot, and Jon took the opportunity to leave the office.
Speaking of the study exchange, Eddie might be able to come here as well. In that case, Zhang Zian thought that Eddie might be able to come.
If that was the case, it would be beneficial for him to instigate a rebellion.
