Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 195 Sequelae

The expression on Thorfinn's face instantly changed from admiration to fear, because Cedric did not give up after knocking down the two Slytherin students. He grinned and kicked the Slytherin who was kicked away by him before in the stomach.

Following a muffled sound, the Slytherin student vomited a large amount of acid, his pupils dilated and his eyes staring straight ahead, as if he was stunned by Cedric's kick.

But Cedric turned a blind eye to this and continued kicking him again and again, as if he wanted to kick him to death.

"No! What do you want to do? Stop it!"

Another Slytherin student, ignoring the blood that was still gushing from his nose, yelled and rushed forward to try to stop Cedric. However, he was no match for Cedric when he was not injured, let alone his current state.

Cedric seemed to have eyes on his back. He dodged his attack by turning sideways and continued to beat the poor Slytherin.

Mike looked at all this with some surprise. He really didn't understand what was wrong with Cedric today.

The two Hufflepuff seniors who had been following Cedric had expressions on their faces as if they had lost their lives. They took out their wands and pointed them at Cedric.

"Hey! What are you guys doing?"

Mike began to question the two of them, and at the same time, the blackthorn wood wand appeared silently in his hand.

He did not stop Cedric from beating the two Slytherin students immediately because Cedric used only fists and feet. Although the two Slytherin students were beaten so badly, in fact, these injuries could be healed by lying in the hospital for a few days.

But now the two senior Hufflepuff students had pulled out their wands and pointed them at his friend Cedric, so he had to step up. After all, a spell like this could kill someone if it wasn't used properly.

Seeing Mike take out his wand, the two Hufflepuffs froze for a moment, but then one of them reacted and said to Mike with a sad face:

"Mike, I'll explain it to you later. The most urgent thing right now is to stop Cedric."

Seeing that the two looked like they were about to cry, Mike raised his hand and hit Cedric, who was still beating the kid, with a stun gun. And as Cedric responded to the end, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, what's going on?"

Hearing Mike's question, the Hufflepuff who had just spoken to Mike wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, walked up to Mike and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"This is the aftereffect of Cedric using human transformation to turn into a honey badger. His current personality may be affected by the beast's bestiality, and he has become very strange. He often fights with others over the slightest thing, and he doesn't even know how hard he is."

After he said that, Mike understood everything. Cedric was ultimately influenced by the nature of the honey badger.

The honey badger is known as the African flat-headed brother. It is famous for holding grudges. If you offend it, it will chase you to the ends of the earth until you die.

And this act of revenge is irrational. No matter how strong the creature is, the honey badger dares to rush forward.

No wonder these two people kept following Cedric. It was probably because Professor Sprout was worried that Cedric would kill someone outside because of the aftereffects of this disease, so he sent these two people to follow Cedric.

This also explains why these two people dared to take out their wands in the auditorium. You know, school rules stipulate that students cannot use magic in corridors and auditoriums. It is estimated that Professor Sprout gave them the two authorizations.

As for your question of why Mike dared to use magic casually in the auditorium?

Come on, an outstanding student who just destroyed Voldemort's Horcrux violated school rules and used a spell to stop a sick classmate from hurting others. If you tell others about this, others will only praise you.

Thinking of this, Mike looked at the two Hufflepuff students with a little more understanding and compassion.

Their lives will definitely not be easy following this person who would beat others from time to time.

But the two men were not in the mood to pay attention to the look in Mike's eyes. When they saw Cedric being knocked unconscious by Mike, they immediately used the levitation spell to lift Cedric up, turned around and quickly left the auditorium.

Seeing this, the two Slytherin students who were beaten beyond recognition stretched out their hands with difficulty to stop Cedric and the others from leaving, while they kept shouting, "I will make you pay the price. I will go to Professor Snape to sue you! No! I will go to the Ministry of Magic to sue you!"

Hearing the two people's shouting, Mike slowly walked up to them.

The two Slytherin youths who were still cursing weakly in the direction Cedric left suddenly saw a pair of disposable slippers, which were standard equipment in the Hogwarts Infirmary.

Looking up along the pair of feet in white disposable slippers, they saw Mike in hospital gown looking at them with a smile on his face. Suddenly, the words that the two of them hadn't spoken yet got stuck in their throats.

Mike smiled at the two Slytherins who were looking up at him, squatted down, pulled one of them's hair with his right hand and said, "You forget thousands of things every day, why not forget this one too?"

As Mike spoke, his mind moved slightly, and he saw an extremely thin black mist floating out from the greed pendant around his neck.

The black mist slowly floated in front of the two Slytherin students, and finally entered their bodies with their breathing.

As the two men inhaled the black mist, the expressions on their faces instantly became extremely distorted. They screamed in fear twice and then fainted.

Seeing this, Mike nodded with satisfaction and released his hand that was holding one of the men's hair.

Feeling that his hands were a little greasy, Mike wiped his hands on the man's clean white shirt inside the robe, then nodded with satisfaction and stood up.

Raven Papi's ability is very practical for this kind of coercion.

The black mist before was essentially weakened nightmare seeds. The two Slytherins who inhaled the black mist would have nightmares for at least two days after returning. If they still had the courage to sue Cedric by then, Mike would kill them.

After Mike asked Raven Papi in detail about the nightmare seeds, he also learned that the nightmare seeds also have a monitoring effect, that is, the person who has the nightmare seeds planted, his every move is under the surveillance of Raven Papi.

From this we can see that when the raven Papi told Mike about his abilities, he did not tell the truth, or at least he kept some things to himself.

But Mike was not angry about this. He believed that as they spent more time together, Raven Papi would eventually tell him everything. Forcing him too much would only have the opposite effect. After doing all this, Mike looked at Dolphin, who looked confused.

"Long time no see, Dolphin, are you okay?" Mike said with a smile, "Tell me, what's going on."

Facing Mike's question, Dolphin's expression was very stiff, and he stuttered: "Nothing, they just... um, they just want to borrow some money from me."

Hearing this, Mike looked at Dolphin again and saw that he was wearing much more luxurious clothes than the last time he was in his dormitory. He immediately understood.

A hedonistic person like Dolphin would certainly not be low-key after getting so much money from Mike. He must have lived an extremely luxurious life during this period, so luxurious that even the Slytherin students with generous pocket money would be jealous. That's why what happened today happened.

"It seems like you've been doing really well recently. How's it going? I guess you've almost spent all the money I gave you last time, right?"

Mike didn't think there was anything wrong with Dolphin's behavior of living for the moment, and just teased him a little.

Some people like to indulge themselves after getting huge sums of money, while others like to invest in the future and make money with money. There is nothing wrong with either, it’s just that everyone has different consumption concepts.

In fact, Mike himself is a person who lives for the moment, but he has already enjoyed what he should have enjoyed in his previous life, so he is much more low-key in this life.

What Mike didn't expect was that Dolphin actually laughed after hearing what Mike said.

"Well, actually I was just about to tell you about this recently." Dolphin said, "I lost a lot of money in the duel tournament finals, so now I'm a pauper again."

After hearing what Dolphin said, Mike remembered that he still had this "share" from Lockhart, and his mood immediately improved a lot.

However, Dolphin's next words made Mike's mood take a sharp turn for the worse.

"So I think I should come to you again for some pocket money." Dolphin said, forcing a smile on his face. "I went back and did some research. The Dolphin Magic Drink you sell is named after me, and its formula also comes from my family, so in theory, the Dolphin Magic Drink should be mine."

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Mike's face immediately became gloomy. He stuck close to Dolphin's body and stared straight into Dolphin's eyes. A black mist that was much thicker than before slowly floated out from the greed pendant.

"Are you threatening me, Dolphin?" Mike said softly, "Do you think I look like your ATM machine that can give you a lot of money at any time? Tell me, Dolphin, do you think I am a soft persimmon?"

When Mike's soft voice reached Dolphin's ears, he just felt cold all over, as if he was facing not a second-year wizard like him, but a ferocious beast from the devil's hell.

Dolphin unconsciously turned his head to avoid Mike's aggressive gaze but Mike forced his head back with his hands. He had no choice but to try his best to roll his eyeballs upwards in order to avoid looking into those terrifying eyes.

"No! You misunderstood Mike, I never meant that!"

"Then what do you mean?"

A black mist slowly crawled along Mike's hand, and soon it crawled onto Dolphin's face and went in through his mouth and nose.

At this time, Dolphin was on the verge of collapse. The strong pressure made him burst into tears unconsciously, and meaningless cries kept coming out of his throat.

Seeing this, Mike also became impatient and asked directly: "What you just said, is it your own idea or was it taught by others?"

"It's my own idea..."

After getting the answer he wanted and successfully planting the nightmare seed, Mike let go of his hand and walked away without looking back.

Dolphin watched Mike walk further and further away, then suddenly collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath like a fish out of water.

It was not until then that Dolphin realized that his back was already soaked with sweat. The temperature in Hogwarts in spring was not too high, but now he felt a little cold when the wind blew.

When he looked into Mike's eyes just now, Dolphin almost thought that Mike really wanted to kill him. That look was so terrifying, and the evil and madness contained in it made people shudder.

At this moment, Mike's voice came again.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, send them both to Madame Pomfret, don't let them die in the hall!"

Hearing the sound, Dolphin instinctively trembled all over and curled up, burying his head deeply in his arms. After a long time, he carefully opened his eyes.

Mike walked quickly towards the Ravenclaw common room. He had a gloomy expression on his face and his loose hospital gown swayed with his movements, making him look quite like "Big Bat" Snape.

Dolphin's words just now did remind him. He had been so busy during this period that he had forgotten about it. Not only did Cedric have sequelae, Dolphin himself and his family were the sequelae of Mike, or more precisely, the sequelae of Dolphin's magic drink.

There are also patent laws in the wizarding world, so in theory, the Dolphin Magic Drink is indeed Dolphin's thing.

However, there are exceptions to everything. The patent law in the wizarding world is not as strict as that in the Muggle world. There have been so many cases of patents being revoked in later generations, so how could the wizarding world be an exception?

The Potter family, for example, which Harry belongs to, makes a living by relying on patents. The best hair softener on the market today was invented by the Potter family's ancestors.

So logically speaking, Harry should have several times more wealth than he has now. However, when his parents died, their family patent was taken away.

Therefore, it was ridiculous for Dolphin to use this kind of thing to blackmail him. If it didn't work, Mike could just kill his whole family. Considering the strange killing method of Raven Papi and the current declining situation of Dolphin family, Mike didn't believe that the Ministry of Magic could find out about him.

If they had this ability, they would have used it long ago when the Death Eaters were rampant.

However, Mike does not intend to attack Dolphin directly, he has a better solution.

"Maybe it's time to get in touch with Abbott."
