Hogwarts Card System.

Chapter 65 Happy Valentine's Day~
With a mentality of not wanting to admit defeat and something she couldn't explain, Hermione gritted her teeth, pressured herself, redoubled her efforts, and squeezed herself to death.

In just over a week, she had dark circles under her eyes, her hair was messy and she had no energy to take care of it, and she walked unsteadily.

I thought that with the magical power of "arcane wisdom", I could go one step further and narrow the gap between me and Ted, but I didn't expect the gap to become even bigger!
Hermione clearly felt that the things that Ted was currently researching were things she had never heard of before and could not understand.

Even after looking through the second and third grade textbooks, I still didn't find similar knowledge.

Even though she is more mature, studious and hardworking than the average little wizard, she is only a 12-year-old girl after all. She cannot withstand the tremendous pressure of studying for a postgraduate entrance exam or a civil service exam.

In less than two weeks, her mentality changed!

That day, she still insisted on staying in the library until the end, even though she was already dizzy...

As a result, on the way back, Hermione suddenly collapsed, the books in her hands fell to the ground, and she collapsed, sitting on the ground, crying loudly. Later, she picked up the books at random, stumbled back to the dormitory, and cried all the way.

She is so tired, she wants to go home! She misses her mother~
Ted only found out about this after he finished detention with Professor McGonagall.

Hermione, who had not even washed her face at night, lay blankly on the bed, staring at the ceiling.

This scared her roommate, who was worried that she was under a curse. She had not been in a good state during this period.

At this moment, a paper crane fluttered into their dormitory, landed on Hermione, and then unfolded into a piece of paper.

Hermione sniffed and picked it up with red eyes...

She rubbed her still red and swollen eyes, muttered something, and finally got up to wash her face, then went to the lounge to meet Ted.

"Come on, I'll take you to a place no one else knows about!" Ted pulled her away.

"Ding ding ding ding~ The Room of Requirement, the most magical room in the castle! Now open to Miss Hermione~" Ted introduced the Room of Requirement with an exaggerated expression and movements.

I need a date place.
I need a date place.
I need a date place.
A sandalwood carved door appeared. After entering, Ted took out the food and drinks he had asked for from the kitchen elves and sat opposite Hermione.

If you are in a bad mood, have a big meal first.

Sweets, in particular, can make people feel happy.

While eating, Ted began to talk about his "adventures" during the Christmas holidays.

About Helena and Ravenclaw, and the current Room of Requirement, Dumbledore, and the legacy of Ravenclaw.

"So, the reason why you are so good at studying now is because of the Ravenclaw heritage?" Hermione asked while biting the spoon.

Ted shook his head. "What Ms. Ravenclaw left behind are some of her past research materials, which are all things we have no use for now. Even the simplest ancient runes can only be taken as electives in our third year. As for why I learned faster, that's not important at all."

He looked at Hermione: "What's important is, what do you want? You work so hard, what is your goal?"

"What do you want? A goal?!" Hermione was stunned. What else did she want besides studying?
"In the East, a philosopher once said: My life is limited, but knowledge is infinite. It is wrong to pursue infinite knowledge with limited life..."

"I study hard and have a clear goal, so I have a clear direction in my studies. What about you? Have you considered your own direction?"

Ted began to counsel Hermione and help her sort out her thoughts - what was the purpose of studying so hard? Grades? Spells? Transfiguration? Potions? Or a sense of accomplishment?
With the help of the psychic's advice and some philosophical concepts, Ted was able to calm Hermione down.

At the same time, it also made her begin to examine her own heart and start to find her own path.

Although it may be too early for a first-year wizard, it was Hermione's fault that Ted was "forcing her growth".

Sometimes, geniuses are many, many steps ahead of ordinary people.

The next day Ted got up, washed, and went for a run to exercise.

Neville had already started warming up by the Black Lake.

It is the age of development. After starting scientific exercise and diet, the height of the children began to grow rapidly.

Neville's height now stands out among all the first-year wizards.

After running for a while, Hermione came and scared Neville.

She didn't like this kind of "sports activity" before, especially in the past two weeks, she spent almost every minute studying.

Ted was relieved to see that she had finally resolved her worries.

After the morning exercise, the three of them came to the auditorium and found that the students seemed a little restless, especially the senior students.

After listening carefully, I realized that today is Valentine's Day.

Well, it’s a holiday that has nothing to do with the first-grade kid anyway.

The school is not on holiday.

But Ted was shocked because the system came.

"Ding~ Triggering the task: [Break up a pair and they are still a pair (green)]

Hogwarts is a magic school, and students come here to learn. How can they indulge in puppy love all day long? Give them a little bit of China shock!

Goal: To get as many students as possible to give up their plans for dating.

Reward: 250 experience points, card [Sturdy Love Doll (Green)].

Accept the punishment from the singles!"

The mission description and objectives are a bit vague.

So, just do your best.

Isn't it just to discourage their plans to fall in love and calm their restless hormones? I'm so familiar with this! I don't know how many times I've been discouraged in my previous life.

So, during lunch, some love tragedies began to spread, such as the story of being abandoned after having sex, love triangles, cheating in a car accident, being fired from a relationship, siblings with terminal illnesses, who should be saved first if your mother and I fall into the water, and whether to save the older or the younger one.

Then, it is said, it is said! Someone suggested to Professor McGonagall that the students' homework load should be increased during this period, otherwise they would be free and undisciplined all day long...

The boys and girls in grades 4, 5, and 6 all looked extremely unhappy.

Some can only finish their homework in the library and can only have a bite of dinner.

Some boys and girls had disputes over some strange "emotional issues".

Some boys and girls are so scared of each other that they simply don't get together.

…Ted’s mission was completed before dinner.

The problem is that I have to keep a low profile now. If people find out that I am the mastermind behind all this, I will probably be cursed with seven or eight evil spells and commit suicide!

Ted looked at the card he risked his life for:
[Sturdy love doll (green)]

item card

Place an extremely sturdy magic love doll that can serve as a training target for various magics.

Lasts 60 minutes, cools down 2 hours.

Note: It will fight back!
Ted simply tried it and it really worked!

With a weapon in hand, you can practice the disarming spell.

Can fight back, and can practice various defensive magic.

Moreover, it has high magic resistance and is very resistant to attacks.

Ted launched five or six consecutive flame attacks, but nothing happened.

You know, this kind of magic dummy that is fully functional and resistant to impact is quite precious.

The items Ted found in abandoned classrooms were all single-function and dilapidated, and were often broken and then repaired.

As a result, Ted raised the level of the repair spell!
……

In late February, Professor Quirrell began to contact Ted more frequently again.

He began to exchange some more "profound" and more taboo knowledge about the bloodlines of magical animals with Ted.

He began to privately display his knowledge, strength and demeanor as a professor, and began to subtly instill in Ted some ideas of ignoring rules and pursuing power.

At the end of the month, he even subtly lured Ted to study the Greek three-headed dog!
"In short, based on my summary and experiments, I have come to the conclusion that the magic of magical animals exists in their blood, which is completely different from us wizards. That is why so many wizards are able to create new magical creatures, whether it is hybrid breeding or more advanced ritual magic creation, it is all like this..."

Professor Quirrell spoke eloquently, his figure and eyes revealing great confidence, the kind of pride and unquestionable confidence in the field he is best at.

At this moment, he was not the stuttering, timid Professor Quirrell.

If it weren't for the purple turban wrapped around his head, you wouldn't even be able to associate him with the previous Professor Quirrell.

Now he felt that he had great prestige in front of Ted and had convinced Ted with his knowledge. So he stopped pretending!
"Finally, I'll leave you an assignment. Of course, it's just a communication between us. Write a paper on the possibility of cross-breeding and evolution of canine magical animals."

"You can target any crup, Bavrot Hound, or those flashing dogs and winter wolves from other worlds. Of course, some very famous canine magical animals in this world are naturally better, such as the French Bulldog, or the Greek Three-Headed Dog..."

Professor Quirrell's eyes were very "kind" and shining, as if he was very optimistic about Ted.
