HP: I'm not going to rule the wizarding world

She still hadn't figured out how to train Draco. If she continued to learn with such effort, even if he didn't lose his patience, she would lose it too.

The spells taught to Draco were all basic spells taught at Hogwarts. They had probably been analyzed by several generations, and the output of each magic power was very precise, which was why Ariana could learn them easily in class.

So far, she hasn't done her homework yet.

Unlike the black magic books like the Room of Requirement, many of them only contain principles or incomplete procedures, and Ariana still needs to deduce them bit by bit.

Draco complained to her helplessly: "That's for you, not for us."

"Well, you are willing to practice fencing with me, how could I be impatient with you? And I taught you twice, but you didn't know how to do it, so I continued to teach you." She felt that she had treated Draco well enough.

For example, when Snape tried to learn Fiendfyre from her, she was too impatient to teach him and just wrote down the principles for him. In order to prevent him from asking further questions, Ariana acted as if she was keeping a distance from him while teaching him.

After more than two weeks of intensive magic study, Draco was indeed a little bored. He felt that he should give Ariana some advice. After all, she had said that as long as the two of them were still friends, she could raise any opinions.

"Why don't we make better use of our time? If you study magic all day, your patience might be running out." Draco looked at her speechlessly.

Ariana was just impatient, not unwilling to listen to other people's opinions. She felt that what Draco said made sense.

"You're right. It's not just the schedule. Staying in the Room of Requirement all day is also a problem. After a while, everyone will definitely get suspicious. We have to find an empty classroom as an excuse. Otherwise, we can practice fencing there in the future. What do you think?" she asked Draco.

"If you ask me, my opinion is that we have been studying magic for too long. Since you are not dropping out anyway, there is no need to rush to study all these magics thoroughly," said Draco.

Although freshmen were not allowed to bring flying brooms to school, the old brooms in the school could be borrowed. In order to learn these spells, Draco hadn't ridden a broom for a long time.

"But magic is very interesting. I'd be itching to leave it here and not study it." Ariana was a little conflicted.

Seeing that her attitude was not very firm, Draco immediately seized the opportunity and explained things to her in a serious manner.

"Then allocate your time reasonably. Don't be too obsessed with magic just because it's interesting. You always have to do something else. What if one day you find magic boring? You originally thought that magic was the only interesting part of Hogwarts. If you lose interest in this as well, you'll probably want to drop out again." Draco said.

Draco did not forget that Ariana was willing to take a step back because she was reluctant to give up the lightning wood wand in her hand.

Now that he had money, it wouldn't be easy to keep the wand, and he must not remind Ariana of this.

He had been reluctant to see her leave Hogwarts before, and now Draco was even more reluctant.

Imagine if Slytherin didn't have Ariana, it would be overwhelmed by Gryffindor.

"What you said makes sense. We should know when to stop doing anything and not get too obsessed with it." Ariana nodded, agreeing with his point of view.

The next day was Monday. In the morning, Ariana followed Pansy and the others to the auditorium and found that many people were gathered in front of the gem bottles distributed by the colleges, talking about it.

"What's going on?"

"Gryffindor was deducted 50 points. Who knows the situation?"

"It seems that Potter and Weasley were caught by Snape while strolling around last night."

"If you get caught by Filch, you'll probably get detention. If you get caught by Snape, you'll definitely lose points."

Snape no longer randomly deducted points from Gryffindor. How could he let go of this opportunity to deduct points?

Chapter 68: Putting Away the Lightning-Struck Wooden Wand

After hearing the whole story, Draco excitedly moved closer to Ariana and whispered to her about his previous actions.

"I went to ridicule Potter, saying that he knew nothing and had never even seen the trophy his father won. He was unworthy of being a child of the Potter family. But I didn't go and tell Professor Snape about it."

This plan was so simple that Draco hadn't had much hope at first, but he didn't expect it to actually work.

Ariana was right, Potter and Weasley were just idiots and didn't care about anything.

"Why don't I remember you mocking Potter?" Ariana looked at him puzzled.

Draco explained, "Nothing happened yesterday when you went to Professor Hodge to borrow a broom. I thought the plan had failed, but they didn't go on Saturday night. They went last night."

Draco's doubts were soon answered, because Ron told the whole story when he and Hermione were arguing.

It turned out that when Draco went to taunt Harry, Hermione was there. She was a little wizard of Muggle origin, so she naturally didn't know that the trophy room could be visited during the day.

Ron suggested that Harry could go to the trophy room at night to confirm whether Draco was lying.

When Hermione heard this, she strongly opposed the two people's night outing and even stayed in the lounge on Saturday to stop them from going back.

She thought that after stopping them once, the two would not go there again, so she did not stay in the lounge last night. The result was obvious.

When Ron learned that the trophy room could be visited during the day, he knew he was in trouble. In order to relieve the psychological pressure, he put the blame on Hermione.

"Professor Snape's duty hours are not on Sundays. If Granger hadn't blocked us in the lounge, we wouldn't have gone there last night and we wouldn't have been caught by Snape." He looked angry and raised his voice very loudly.

However, those who knew Ron knew that he was obviously a coward. There were quite a few people at the Gryffindor table who knew Ron, and soon someone stood up to teach him a lesson.

"Ron, you did something wrong and yet you put the blame on Granger. You're so disappointing. I'll write to Mum." The speaker was Percy Weasley, Gryffindor's prefect.

Ron still refused to admit his fault and said stubbornly, "It's obviously Granger's fault."

Percy was a man who cared a lot about his dignity. He was immediately very angry when he heard that Ron dared to refute him.

"You've caused so much trouble recently, and I haven't told Mom about it yet. Don't you realize your mistakes?" He felt that Ron really needed a lesson.

"I was wrong." Ron gave in when he heard that his mother would know about this.

After watching the whole process, Draco snorted in annoyance and immediately complained about Ron to Ariana.

"Looking at his expression and tone, he only says he knows he's wrong. He'll definitely be outrageous again next time. His brother should tell his mother about all these things and then send him a yelling letter."

He had already apologized last time, but his attitude was still so rude in Hagrid's Hut. It was no wonder that Draco was angry.

Ariana's attention was on Percy, and she stroked her chin and commented.

"This Weasley prefect has a fairly normal outlook. He didn't protect Ron Weasley just because he's his younger brother. Look at the other Gryffindors. Because Ron Weasley is a good friend of the Savior, none of them said a fair word for Granger."

Senior Farley suddenly appeared from behind Ariana and explained Percy's behavior to Ariana and Draco.

"Although Granger is not very popular in Gryffindor, she has earned a lot of house points for Gryffindor. Otherwise, Weasley would never say a word for her."

Although Ariana had an argument with Senior Farley, it didn't get to the point of a big fight, and the Slytherins were all very sensible.

Ariana's magic is so powerful, and she has earned a lot of points for the academy, so even if there are conflicts, they can still communicate with each other.

Ariana hadn't spoken yet, and Draco was the first to give his evaluation after listening.

"That's quite hypocritical of him," he sneered.

Draco had heard of Percy. It was said that the sorting took him a very long time. He didn't know the reason at the time, but later he got to know his character. Everyone said that he was very consistent with the characteristics of Slytherin, but he insisted on going to Gryffindor.

Ariana has a different opinion.

"What's wrong with being positive? It's much better than someone who enjoys the convenience brought by their status but doesn't know how to work hard." She almost mentioned Harry's name.

Although Ariana didn't mention anyone by name, everyone present knew who she was talking about.

"I notice that you have a lot of opinions about him now." Draco looked at her and said.

Before, Ariana would at most agree with him a few words, and would even advise him if he said something too much.

Ariana complained, "It's all Dumbledore's fault. He made me take that side without any reason. It made me feel very unhappy, and it's inevitable that I took my anger out on the savior."

If Dumbledore knew Ariana thought this way, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. This is simply a reverse promotion.

Draco nodded in agreement. "You're right. Compared to Potter, who has the title of savior but doesn't know how to work hard, Prefect Weasley's display of love seems very normal."

In addition to eating at the dining table in the hall, Slytherins also engage in an activity, which is socializing.

Draco's social style was simple and crude, which was to show off his financial strength, so he took out his most recent favorites, the first of which was the memory ball that Ariana had modified for him yesterday.

Ariana had made it clear in the auditorium before that because she was of Muggle origin and had never seen this kind of memory ball, she bought it to study it.

Now the memory ball is in Draco's hand, and it is obvious that Ariana gave it to him.

Although the relationship between Pansy and Ariana has eased, she will never miss any opportunity to dig a hole. After all, she really doesn't want to marry Nott or Zabini.

"Draco, Colin actually gave you a memory ball. Is she trying to mock you for being a fool?"

Pansy raised her voice several degrees, and her tone was already a bit sharp, so many people subconsciously covered their ears.

Although Draco had a fight with Pansy last time because of the announcement of their relationship, they had known each other since childhood. After Pansy humbled herself and apologized sincerely, Draco forgave her.

Now the relationship between the two has returned to its previous state. It is not as close, but they can still talk a lot.

Draco muttered speechlessly after hearing this: "What do you know? Ariana was bought to study alchemy. She has already made the changes. Let me show you the results."

Draco put his hand on the memory ball, and the ball glowed red, and a line of words appeared: "No hairspray."

Ariana couldn't help laughing when she saw that line of words. Not only her, but even the pure-blooded little wizard who usually complimented the Malfoy family couldn't help laughing.

Then Brace started laughing, and the others started laughing louder.

Draco glared at Ariana, the culprit. Ariana immediately put away her smile, took out her wand and put it on the table, then looked around at everyone.

The others suddenly stopped laughing, and of course no one dared to talk to him.

Seeing this, Ariana realized that she had gone too far and took the initiative to break the tense atmosphere. She said to Draco, "I was wondering if you looked different today. I didn't notice it at first, but it turns out you didn't use hairspray."

Draco, still a little annoyed, snorted before explaining, "I entered all my schedules in and deliberately didn't use hairspray, just to see how it would work."

With the step Ariana offered, the others also went down directly, mainly because they wanted to ease the atmosphere and hoped that Ariana would put away the lightning-struck wooden wand.

Chapter 69 Do you think it’s powerful?

The first person to speak was Senior Farley.

"This memory ball can actually display text prompts. That's amazing. Where did you buy it?"

When Ariana gestured for him to speak, Draco immediately understood that she wanted everyone to ignore what had just happened, so he took the initiative to talk to Senior Farley.

"This is an ordinary memory ball, but Ariana modified the program. If we forget something, it will not only show red, but also use text to remind us of the specific thing we forgot."

Draco's emotions came and went quickly. After showing off for a few words, he forgot the embarrassment just now.

Not only did Draco stop dwelling on what had just happened, but everyone else also came over to look at the memory ball.

"Colin, I didn't expect you to be so good at magic and alchemy as well."

Ariana was not polite at all and accepted the compliment directly.

"It's just a little thing, very simple."

Blaise, who had been trying to hook up with Ariana, asked, "Can I buy a memory ball and have it altered for me? I can pay for it."

Not only Blaise, but people from other grades also agreed. Slytherins are a group of children from wealthy families who are not short of money. This memory ball is so novel that many people are interested in it.

Ariana realized this was an opportunity to smooth things over and happily agreed.

"We're all from the same academy. If you want one, just buy it and I'll modify it for you. It won't cost you anything."

Anyway, she is not short of money now, so she might as well let these people owe her a favor, so that when she needs something in the future, it will be difficult for others to refuse her.

Then many people made appointments with Ariana to modify their memory balls.

After sitting in the classroom, Draco said to Ariana unhappily, "You shouldn't have agreed to them. If you do, my memory ball won't be unique, and it won't be fun to show it off."

His memory ball should be unique, but Ariana just promised more than a dozen people, so from now on, this memory ball will not belong to him alone.

Hearing Draco's complaints, Ariana felt helpless and reminded him of a very realistic problem.

"My dear young master, do you really want me to be alone at Hogwarts for seven years? It's okay for other houses, but it's really unreasonable that you can't improve the relationship with your own house. Besides, these people have connections behind them. Will there be such opportunities to make friends when I enter society in the future?"

Ariana herself felt that the situation just now was a bit too much. She just took out the magic wand, but no one dared to come out and talk to her. This was something she didn't expect.

"Okay, but if you make any interesting magic items in the future, I must be the first to have them." Although Draco gave in, he made a request.

Ariana only spent five or six minutes modifying the memory ball yesterday. She had never been exposed to alchemy before, so she will definitely be able to create many alchemical items in the future.

I really don't know what's going on in her brain, let alone any mention of brain occlumency assistance. Ariana gave him the old book.

As a result, he tried to learn it, but found that the content was very difficult to learn, let alone using the brain occlumency technique to learn other things.

He saw Ariana often use brain occlumency to simulate the operation of spells. No one had ever used it like her. Even so, she still complained that this magic was not as fast as a supercomputer.

It was just a small thing, and Ariana agreed immediately.

"Of course, you're my best friend. You see, I'm rich, so I bought you the memory ball you like right away."

Draco certainly knew that friendship was mutual. Ariana gave him her favorite thing, so of course he wanted to buy her something too.

"Then what do you like? I'll buy it for you later." He has no money now.

Ariana didn't think twice and answered directly: "I don't lack anything now. I have begun to pursue the spiritual world, so you can't buy what I want with money."

"What do you want?" Draco asked in confusion.

"Immigrate to the United States and create my own consortium myth." Ariana's goal has always been clear.
