This is what Ravenclaw looks like..

Chapter 294 The vacation is over
"Occlumency..."

Andrew looked up from the table and stretched his body.

This was his first time coming into contact with this type of magic, and he found it very interesting - a protective spell that required no incantations, no wands, no rituals, and no gestures.

For that alone, it's worth exploring.

It hardly looks like magic, but it is an excellent ally against Legilimency, and if a wizard's Occlumency is good enough, it can even resist the memory reading of those who are natural Legilimency masters.

This was described in the information Andrew obtained, and although he had never seen a so-called natural telepath, he was very clear about how outrageous the Metamorphmagus in the field of Transfiguration was.

If the two can be replaced, then the Legilimency will be so terrible that it can read other people's thoughts without casting a spell, as simple as breathing...

"So I have to learn more. Although I haven't heard of the relevant introduction, if I read it all out, it will be more difficult than just the Astronomy Tower..."

He thought so while flipping through the documents.

According to the information described in the material, the so-called brain closure technique, the basis for entry is emotion control.

Because Legilimency relies on picking up emotional fluctuations to read corresponding memories - even a natural Legilimency user can only read more information when the other person is experiencing emotional fluctuations, not to mention imitated Legilimency.

Therefore, the most basic corresponding brain closure technique is to clear the emotions and thoughts in your brain, so that the other person can only feel that your head is empty and gets nothing.

The ultimate goal of Occlumency is even more outrageous. It is to suppress some emotions and memories so that the revealed situation will not be exposed, thereby achieving the so-called lying to the other party.

According to the speedrun that Andrew saw, Professor Snape had achieved the ultimate level of brain occlusion - and no matter how you calculate it, this information is undisputed.

But this information was meaningless - he could not get such help from Professor Snape, who was a Ravenclaw, not a Slytherin.

Moreover, the traditional practice method was not suitable for him - it required the cooperation of a Legilimency master, who had to read the memories in his mind many times to make him adapt to Legilimency, so as to mobilize the potential of brain occlumency little by little and finally master it.

But not to mention the speed pass that cannot be talked about the most, nor the matter of the astronomy tower, just the office task alone is something that cannot be revealed at all.

Fortunately, there is an alternative way to learn - starting with the art of telepathy.

In other words, although it is called a heretical method, in fact most people who master the art of brain occlumency learn it through this channel, because not many wizards who have access to this will hand over their memories to others many times.

Long illness makes a good doctor. The more you practice telepathy and the more you master memory through emotions, the more you will naturally figure out the tricks of protective behavior.

But this kind of learning also has disadvantages, because when you are exposed to more emotions, you will inevitably become more indifferent to your emotions, which will lead to slower learning progress than before.

Andrew didn't care anyway - compared to having his memory read, the cost was much smaller, and Professor Snape was probably trained on this, he was very cruel when scolding people, saying that he was very emotionally indifferent, Andrew would never believe it.

But here comes the problem. Legilimency is in the restricted area, and the information he got did not include this thing.

"Fortunately, there is enough basic information, so you can just read it. Besides, there is also a way to combine the two, extract the memory, and then let people practice... In that case, the Sorting Hat can also be a good teacher."

When it comes to the master of Legilimency, no one in Hogwarts can catch up with this magical prop that has been used many times and for many years...

"Forget it. It would be fun if the speedrun was exposed..."

Anyway, he wasn't worried at all about whether he could learn it or not - the professor would agree to learn magic like Occlumency after considering it.

"I just have to go back to school early, otherwise I might not be able to make it in time. Damn it, do I have to go back to school early after a 20-day vacation?"

After thinking it over, Andrew nodded helplessly - without a doubt, yes.

Fortunately, he had already built a solid foundation in German and could report back to school, so he simply gave up his study assignment and started playing with the kids on summer vacation. "Only ten days of vacation? Didn't you say you could stay an extra week at the beginning?"

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Camille," Andrew lowered his head. This time he was really a little willful. "I was a little greedy."

"Studying is important, but don't be so anxious. I saw it a few days ago. Your plans have been disrupted, right?"

Mrs. Camille sighed, "If you guys can balance it out, there's no need for people to worry so much. Go ahead, but remember not to go astray and learn bad things."

"I will, Madame Camille."

Andrew assured earnestly, then pulled the box away.

In order to avoid being exposed, he went ahead and bought a train ticket, but instead of riding the train, he found a nearby fireplace and flew directly to Hogsmeade.

When he knocked on the door, Hagrid's face was a little distorted.

"Ten days, Andrew, you only have ten days off!"

Hagrid was about to say something, but suddenly he seemed to have thought of something and shut his mouth.

"It's just that I have other plans, Hagrid, please open the door for me during the holidays."

"It's fine if I have something to do temporarily. I just said that the professors at Hogwarts don't seem to be that busy."

???

Andrew's mind raced.

He didn't understand the meaning of Hagrid's complaint for a moment - he was a student and Hagrid was a gamekeeper, so what did they have to do with the professor?
Wait, it seems to be related, he almost forgot!

It seems that Hagrid has become a professor, taking over the class of that old professor!

It was he who organized Professor Kettleburn's retirement party, but he was unable to attend it because he had exams to take, which was a pity.

So, the new Care of Magical Creatures professor is Hagrid?

Yes, that's right!

But theoretically he shouldn't know this information - so he gave up the idea of ​​congratulating him.

"Professors are busier than expected. Homework alone is hard enough to handle, not to mention a bunch of problem students and final exams. There are also many things that need to be prepared for class."

"Is it so difficult?"

"Of course," Andrew said, looking like he knew nothing. "It was very tiring."

The castle is almost in sight - his recognition of the professors' hard work has also been conveyed. So let it be, no matter what, he will first try to gain their favor in front of the professors who may hear it.

"See you later, Hagrid. I have to report to the professor first."

"Well," Hagrid opened his big hands and said goodbye with a complicated expression.
