Hogwarts: I'm Harry's older cousin

Chapter 182, page 180: Heimer's Notebook

Dudley gave the old wizard a proper burial and built a tombstone using alchemy.

Siziel Heimer, that's the old wizard's name.

On the way back, Dudley flipped through the notebook, which contained some trivial matters about the old wizard after he lost his memory.

The content lacks coherence, is mostly disjointed, and some sentences are even incoherent.

Whether it was due to age-related memory decline or the aftereffects of the Forgetfulness Curse, Dudley himself leaned more towards the latter.

Because these are the latter half of the notes.

The first half of the notes is completely different, both in terms of font and content.

That was the culmination of a wizard named Haimer's life's work.

Research on werewolves.

Dudley initially only glanced at it briefly, but he quickly became engrossed in it.

It's short, but full of useful information, with no fluff.

moment

Dali looked up at the vast sea in the distance and let out a long sigh.

This old wizard is definitely a master of werewolf research.

He spent most of his life on this.

If the contents were released, it would definitely cause a sensation.

According to the old wizard's research, he discovered that although werewolves and vampires both belong to the dark creatures, they are fundamentally different. Vampires are transformed from humans into another kind of creature. They were once human, but now they belong to magical creatures and are the living dead.

Once a person becomes a vampire, their lifestyle completely changes. Things they used to like become things they dislike, and things they dislike become things they like.

Werewolves, however, are different. It's not a species transformation; they remain human, only forced to transform into beasts called werewolves during the full moon. Haimer believes this is something like a curse, spread through biting, and he calls the transformation during the full moon a "curse attack."

Since it's a curse, then it can be lifted. Heimer has been researching this very reason.

This is a very novel way of putting it.

Werewolves are still human before they transform, but vampires are different. They no longer belong to the category of humans. Although they look very similar, they can be described as humanoid creatures like Veela.

Once a werewolf transforms, the vast majority will lose their rationality and become a true beast.

This perfectly fits the definition of a "curse".

Haimer's research seemed to open a new world for Dali, making things much clearer.

In order to find a way to break this "curse", Haimer conducted much deeper research and traveled all over the world to conduct more experiments.

The notebook contained some of Heimer's experimental data.

Finally, when he was in his sixties, Heimer created a very complicated and intricate spell.

This curse is specifically designed to target werewolves.

It's important to understand that even the renowned wolfsbane potion can only keep werewolves sane, not transform them into humans.

But the curse left by Haimer is different.

It can even suppress the werewolf after it transforms, and can even restore its sanity and human form for a short time.

Yes, in a short time

Because Haimer's research is not yet complete.

Shortly after he tested the spell and successfully turned a werewolf into a human, he met Lockhart and told him his story.

Unfortunately, Lockhart was not interested in Heimer's research, but he was interested in his life story.

So they took away his experience.

"If Haimer were still alive and had successfully created that complete spell, it would have been an absolute blessing for the wizarding world and for wizards struggling with their werewolf identities."

Lockhart is truly wicked.

Dudley carefully put the notebook away, feeling even more disgusted with his former useless professor.

Ten books, ten wizards. Apart from two who were found, the remaining seven were almost all dead, even the two who were found by themselves were in very bad shape.

Because the magical world lost ten outstanding wizards.

Stealing someone's memories without caring whether they live or die is not much different from those dark wizards who indiscriminately kill innocent people.

What do you mean by a ten-year sentence in Azkaban? You'd better never get out of there.

I must complete this curse myself when I have the chance.

Although the unfinished spell left by Haimer was complex, it was relatively so. As a top student, Da learned it very quickly and had mastered most of it before even arriving home.

The effect will only be known after a werewolf that has actually transformed.

The first thing Dudley did upon returning to England was to contact the two old wizards who had been found and send them to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries. With Galleons paving the way, Dudley directly hired the best healers at St. Mungo's.

Dudley had assumed that professional matters should be handled by professionals, but to his surprise, St. Mungo's best healer told him that they could only do their best and they couldn't say for sure how long it would take for him to regain his memory.

Dali asked them how confident they were of curing the disease.

Their answer was 10%.

I'm not as confident as I am with myself.

Come to think of it, in the original story, Lockhart, who was under his own forgetting spell, stayed at St. Mungo's until Harry graduated without regaining his memories.

What ability do they have to heal these two old wizards who are also under the Oblivion Curse?

It's better to consult Professor Snape than them.

Every potions master is an excellent healer, and of course, a master of poisons.

Dudley wasn't confident enough to handle the situation alone, so he needed the assistance of a Potions Master.

Snape is the best person.

"Follow me, Pipilu and Luxixi, don't get lost."

Dudley led the two old wizards out of the St. Mungo's healer's place, intending to settle them down before going to find Snape.

Since Dudley didn't know the names of the two old wizards, he gave them two aliases.

As for their real names, we'll talk about that when they regain their memories.

Whether it was because they were terrified of hunger or something else, these two people, despite having lost their previous memories, were extremely obedient to Dali.

"Where's Neville?" Dudley asked Hermione after coming out and noticing that one of them was missing.

Hermione hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the corner ahead: "Neville said he had something to take care of. But I saw him go to another ward."

Somewhat worried, Chongda asked, "Is anyone from Nawei's family hospitalized here?"

Dalli paused for a moment, then made no attempt to hide anything: "Yes, it was Neville's parents, two very respectable wizards."

"Hermione and I will go check on them. Harry, you and Malfoy keep an eye on Pipilu and Luxixi, make sure they don't run around."

While we're at it, let's see if there's anything we can do about the Longbottoms' injuries.

Let's not even mention the level of healing at St. Mungo's.

Dudley and Hermione walked together to the ward at the corner and slowly pushed open the door to ward number 49 of St. Mungo's.
