The Bard of Hogwarts

Chapter 66 Winter Arrives

Slytherin dormitory.

Ino placed the earthenware pot back on the shelf, then looked at Malfoy, who was looking bored to death.

"Draco, I just saw Harry explaining his flying skills to people on my way back..."

"Where?"

As if springs were installed in the chair, Malfoy instantly stood up.

"I saw it when I passed by the auditorium just now, but I don't know where it is now."

Ino spoke of things he didn't know without batting an eye.

But Malfoy didn't care about any of that. Hearing Harry talking about flying techniques, he couldn't sit still any longer. He hastily threw on his robe and headed for the door.

"Bang!" The door slammed shut.

After sending Malfoy away and confirming that he wouldn't be back anytime soon, Ino sat on the bed, drew the bed curtains, and then slowly opened her suitcase.

He had already decided that rather than waiting until next winter, he might as well plant it now in the seamlessly extending space, since it was currently empty anyway.

The reason for choosing the dormitory was entirely due to its safety. As Slytherin's stronghold, it wasn't as unrestrained as Gryffindor, where girls could freely enter the boys' dormitories.

In this castle basement space, only the young wizards living in the rooms and the headmaster of Slytherin can open the bedroom doors. Even the headmaster cannot enter the young wizards' bedrooms without permission.

For all these reasons, Ino chose the dormitory rather than the Room of Requirement.

Snape wouldn't bother coming in out of boredom, and as for Malfoy, once he saw his bed curtains drawn, this pure-blooded young gentleman wouldn't bother him.

There was no unauthorized intrusion, and Malfoy would even deliberately minimize unnecessary noise in the dormitory.

Thinking of this, he slowly walked into the box while carrying the pottery basin.

……

Seamlessly extending space, an open plaza.

Like a lost land forgotten by time, only the pile of various candies and dried foods in the very center, like a small mountain, has become the only unique sight here.

Choosing a clearing away from the food, Ino slowly squatted down and dug a small pit in the soft soil.

He then poured all the soil from the earthenware basin into the hole he had just dug. After doing all this, he slowly stood up and held the elder wand in his right hand.

Winter is coming!

The second magic inherited by the White Witch was the magic that once froze Narnia, plunging it into a century-long winter.

As the incantation ended, the temperature in the entire infinitely extending space suddenly dropped, the air pressure became heavier and heavier, a cold wind gradually rose around, and snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

As time went by, the fluffy snow gradually grew larger and denser, and even hailstones of different sizes, crystal clear, fell from the sky.

The snowflakes drifted down in dense flakes, like a giant white net. Under this net, one's vision was limited to a maximum of three feet; beyond that, nothing could be seen.

A blizzard has formed!

In an instant, the entire seamless extended space, an area the size of three or four basketball courts, was completely covered in white snow, becoming a veritable ice and snow world.

Everything in sight was white; in the entire small square, only the small area where the candy was stored was not covered by snow.

A few minutes later.

The blizzard gradually subsided. Although the magic had ended, a few snowflakes still drifted down from the sky, as if the reconstructed ecosystem had begun its own cycle.

Meanwhile, Ino looked at the scene before him and let out a long sigh of relief. For a moment, he thought he was completely unable to cast the spell.

But things happened so coincidentally, as if I had drunk Felix Felicis, that slight doubt and hesitation was quickly replaced by a strange confidence and determination.

Perhaps it was due to the frequent snowfalls during the Christmas holidays, or for some other reason, but in any case, this magic was magically unleashed.

Although the ice and snow only covered 10,000 square feet of seamless, extended space, Ino felt a sense of satisfaction.

A successful release is a good start. As for the strength of the magic, you just need to wait for the magic power to increase step by step later.

The drop in temperature and the coverage of ice and snow have completely changed the environment here.

at the same time.

The berry seeds that had just been planted sprouted into an ice-blue seedling in the snow-covered soil; the seeds had germinated.

The two-inch-tall seedlings are crystal clear, just like a carefully carved piece of icy jade, with each tender leaf displaying a unique icy blue hue.

This color is neither the azure of the sky nor the deep blue of the ocean, but a cool and dreamy hue, as if it contains the purity of ice and snow and the vitality of flowers and plants.

Similarly, the moment the seedling broke through the soil, Ino had a feeling, a strange sensation, as if another version of herself was taking root in the soil and growing like a plant.

As the strange feeling deepened, he also developed a strange connection with this seamless, extending space.

This is undoubtedly good news. After all, there will be no more fear of losing luggage on future trips. Similarly, anyone who enters without authorization will be subject to the baptism of ice and snow under his supervision.

At this moment, he also understood why the White Witch planted an ice-blue rose in the frozen castle.

Perhaps when Aslan led Susan and Lucy to raid the house, the White Witch saw everything.

But fate is often so helpless; you see everything but can't change it.

After a brief moment of thought, Ino crouched down and gently touched the seedling in front of her with her fingers.

The ice-blue seedlings swayed gently, a wonderful experience, like scratching an itch on yourself.

But there seemed to be a gut feeling that told him that the seedling had more uses than it did now.

However, now was not the time to consider such things. After confirming that nothing else had been overlooked, Ino slowly stepped out of the box.

……

Meanwhile, in the castle's Great Hall, Malfoy successfully found Harry in the crowd.

"Broken!"

Malfoy said with some excitement.

"You're so smug about winning a Quidditch match by sheer luck? And you, Red-haired Weasley, your family is so poor you can't even afford half a broom. Are you working so hard as a lackey just so you'll have a chance to ride a broomstick and fly around in the sky?"

Malfoy's words, which were full of sweeping generalizations, not only angered Harry and the Gryffindors around him, but also severely damaged Ron.

"Shut up!" Ron said angrily. "You bastard, I don't know where you get the courage to stand here and talk. Those two big idiots not following you is your biggest mistake."

Malfoy was taken aback by what he heard! Indeed... seeing Harry had made him so excited that he hadn't noticed his surroundings at all.

Looking at the group of Gryffindor wizards around him with hostile eyes, he regretted his impulsive actions.

"Cough... So what! This is the auditorium, do you dare to lay a hand on me?"

Although Malfoy managed to surround about ten Gryffindors by himself, he still stubbornly continued to rant and rave.

However, as he said, this is the auditorium hall.

Seeing that red had surrounded green, the Slytherin group quickly noticed the situation as well.

The little snakes silently put down what they were doing and slowly walked towards Malfoy, then formed a counter-encirclement on top of the original one.

New book release, a new journey begins. Thank you to all the big names for your support.
