Chapter 254 Professor Hwangeshi's Class Begins
The new week began, and Hermione spent almost all of it running up and down the stairs.
From the defense class classroom to various towers, she reviewed her brilliance magic at every stage, from high to low, over almost a week.
In the morning, he was teaching the most basic theoretical courses to the first-year students, and in the afternoon, he was teaching the fifth-year students, who were in Gemini, advanced practical exercises on pyroxene meteors.
However, this made her re-examine the magic system of the borderlands. Teaching more people from the perspective of a teacher made her think more deeply about the nature of the Radiant Stone, and she also felt that she was a bit like Teacher Seren. But she firmly did not choose the path of the Origin School.
The method of transforming the soul into a semi-organic Source Stone, a technique that allows rebirth by transplanting Source Stones even after the old body dies, is not perfect in her view. The fact that Teacher Seren eventually became a Magician Ball is proof of that; it is too easy for flaws to occur.
The ultimate goal of the Origin Faction is to transform themselves into life forms of stars, that is, life forms from the source of the Radiant Stone, like the Dark Abandoned Estelle, revealing an unusually beautiful yet terrifying stone worm appearance. Unfortunately, from the perspective of the Faded Ones, the greatest value of that thing is to remove its beautiful wings. Estelle's thin wings are quite good curved swords, capable of ranged attacks without consuming resources.
Voldemort might be interested in such immortality technology, but the Finger Witch prefers a safe and practical path.
However, the power of the Origin faction's magic is still considerable. To this day, Hermione has not been able to reproduce the three most powerful legendary gem magics—Destroying Meteor, Creating Star Rain, and Comet Azrael—on her own. Even with the help of the castle's gem core, it seems there is still something between them.
She guessed that, much like the difference between a great wizard and an ordinary wizard, she would need to at least step halfway across that threshold before she could possibly unleash Origin-level magic.
The duel with Little Barty did create a good classroom atmosphere for her. The first and second graders were in awe of her and sat in the classroom in a very proper manner. They would even raise their hands before farting. This made her, a first-time teacher, quite comfortable, as she did not need to spend extra energy maintaining order.
In the third and fourth years, the pressure was reduced a lot because of the help of her friends. The Harry Quartet could even teach the fourth-year students and help her correct the mistakes of other students little by little.
However, the third and fourth year courses were relatively heavy. Although many of them had read Hermione's papers, not many were truly proficient. To go from being complete novices to learning to combine and cast spells from the sky, and to master the maintenance of the magic circle, Hermione had to assign them extra homework.
The courses from fifth grade onwards are relatively easier. Although the difficulty of magic has increased significantly, the students are also older, and their thinking and magical abilities are higher and they are more sensible.
George and Fred had warned their classmates beforehand that the Queen of Gryffindor would turn failing students into snotty-nosed children, so they had better take it seriously!
However, when it comes to the subject of joint spellcasting, hard work alone is not enough. The key is cooperation with companions. With the aid of the magical realm, they can barely keep in step. But for twins like George and Fred, who are quick-witted, it is easy for them to synchronize themselves, but it is too difficult for them to keep in step with others.
Even Lee Jordan couldn't keep up with their pace, let alone the relatively slower-burning Sculpture students. Hermione had to separate the two of them, while the others were able to complete their spells better under Cedric's guidance.
As for the seventh graders, their main challenge lies in mastering the magic of the Highmo Cannonball. Even in the borderlands, only the most talented apprentices can be selected for the Highmo Classroom. This school of magicians is dedicated to quelling conflicts, and their spells are known as the magic of cannons and retribution, emphasizing their immense power.
Although it looks bulky, it actually requires a high level of intelligence and magic. Only a strong person who can wield it independently can walk the earth alone and quell disputes and wars. This is also Hermione's hope for Harry.
It's worth mentioning that Barty Jr. stubbornly left the school hospital before his injuries had fully healed, and he was very interested in attending Hermione's Brightstone Magic class.
"How could I not attend the teaching assistant's class? Besides, to be honest, I'm quite interested in Radiant Stone magic!"
Barty Jr. had indeed studied Hermione's papers in detail, and even had a rough grasp of the latest techniques like Shattered Rock and Falling Magic.
Except for the first and second years, which he didn't attend because they were too basic, he attended every class from the third to the seventh year, listening to Hermione's complete theory from the basics to the advanced levels.
However, Hermione didn't care. If Barty could suddenly become a great wizard through this lesson, she would have to think highly of him.
"Miss Granger, I've heard that besides this radiance-controlling magic, you seem to have also created a pale flame that ghosts fear? It seems to be a magic that points towards death?" Crouch, dressed like a gentleman, asked casually.
Hermione glanced at him with some surprise. She hadn't expected that this guy, who had been at school for less than a month, had already found out about what happened the year before last.
"That's not a mature magic system, so there's no intention to teach it to others for the time being." She refused decisively.
"I see—." Little Barty said with a hint of regret.
"My father passed away too suddenly, without leaving behind many things. I've consulted many books, but I still lack the ability to communicate with the deceased."
"I just wish that I could use that kind of magic to see my father one more time—" His handsome appearance was filled with sadness, which even moved many of the older girls.
Hermione, unsuspecting, thought for a moment and said, "If I had your father's ashes, I could indeed arrange for him to see you one more time."
As long as an incomplete soul-binding ritual is used, it is possible to merely summon the soul, have a brief conversation, and then disperse, which will not have any impact.
But Little Barty hesitated for a moment: "Um, I mean, can't you teach me this magic? My father and I might not have some things to talk about..."
His real purpose was simply to spy on Hermione's death magic; he had no interest whatsoever in whether he could summon old Crouch's soul. Besides, if that old guy really came back, he would definitely shout that he was the patricide.
He knew that Hermione had taught Lockhart the incredibly powerful magic of the Great Bow, and that Lockhart had specifically thanked the little witch when the basilisk's corpse was on display, the huge wound of which had shocked everyone.
Hermione just smiled at him. Although she wasn't interested in the Crouch family's dirty secrets, she couldn't possibly entrust her exclusive magic to someone like Barty Jr.
Seeing that his request was unsuccessful, he had no choice but to leave.
