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

This is the most powerful aspect of this spell. It is absolutely irreversible. After all, the soul is very complex and invisible. It is impossible for it to be broken like other things and then restored with a repair spell.

Draco suddenly said, "You can't use the three unforgivable curses, so how are we going to deal with these ghosts?"

This is why he felt sad for Ariana, even though she threatened others in order to protect her own safety.

But in fact, she has always adhered to her moral bottom line and never hurt anyone. Even when she was angry, she just wanted to blow up the principal's office.

"How do you know I can't use it?" Ariana said lightly.

In order to deal with the mysterious man, she had just made up her mind to study the three unforgivable curses. After all, the mysterious man knew them, but she didn't. If they faced each other, she would be at a disadvantage.

Draco looked at her sadly and said, "Don't I know you already? You won't give anyone a handle unless it's absolutely necessary. The Ministry of Magic has clearly stipulated that using the three Unforgivable Curses is equivalent to committing a crime. Would you commit a crime?"

Chapter 126: Definitely Can Reach Another Level

Draco sometimes didn't quite understand Ariana. Compared to the most powerful wizard in the magical world, she cared more about the weak and incompetent Ministry of Magic.

All we can say is that the two people have very different ideas. In the ordinary world, no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot compete with an institution representing the country.

But it is possible in the wizarding world. Who in the Ministry of Magic dares to disobey Dumbledore?

Even those newspapers that published negative news about Dumbledore still put the blame on the reporters who were hiding their true intentions.

Ariana smiled helplessly and put her hand on Draco's shoulder.

"Okay, you're worthy of being my boyfriend. You do understand me, but not well enough. Even though I can't use it directly, it doesn't mean I can't analyze it and use the principle."

Just like her research on curses, everything has its pros and cons, and there must be a program that can be used for the three unforgivable curses.

Moreover, when it comes to life and death, she doesn't care about laws and regulations. She has to use them and survive first.

Ariana didn't have detailed spell analysis for the Killing Curse and the Cruciatus Curse, but she did have the Imperius Curse.

She planned to analyze the energy data of the soul from this spell, and then create a spell to detect this energy, and even research a spell to confine this energy magnetic field, which could be regarded as an alternative application of the Imperius Curse.

The two of them are indeed good friends. After being together for a long time, their personalities have influenced each other, and Draco also learned from Ariana to divert conflicts.

"If Dumbledore hadn't gone too far, you wouldn't have had to study the Imperius Curse and break your own bottom line."

Ariana should have studied the magic that interested her instead of studying the three unforgivable curses for survival.

Before having the absolute strength to change the environment, temporarily forbearing is nothing. In Ariana's view, nothing is more important than life safety, including the bottom line.

"One shouldn't dwell on what one has lost, but also on what one has gained. Although I was forced into this, it made me determined to study this taboo. My growth will only accelerate."

She now had a premonition that after studying these three spells, her magic would definitely reach another level, and she would not be unable to fight against Dumbledore.

Ariana's first choice was Dumbledore, more because this man would definitely not kill her. At most, he would duel with her like she did with Snape, but now she was really impatient to see this old man.

Draco remembered his conversation with Dumbledore yesterday and reminded Ariana, "Yesterday he wanted to join the Dueling Club just to see your research results. You'd better tell Senior Farley and the others tonight that the spell you shared must not be shared with anyone else."

This old man even knew what Ariana had said. If someone else leaked Ariana's information, he would probably be sent to the principal's office soon.

"I don't like forcing others to do anything, so telling them about Dumbledore's interest in my spells will actually achieve your goal."

Ariana finally wants to make her achievements public.

She had said before that she wanted to solve the survival problem of wizards. There are so few of them, and if they are all so incompetent, how can they have fun? So it was impossible for her to say such words.

"That's a good idea." Draco agreed.

Then he discovered a new problem: "But if you want to study the soul spell, what do you plan to use as a magical experiment? You can't just catch a ghost in Hogwarts, right?"

Before in the Room of Requirement, Ariana always used animals for experiments, and some scenes were quite bloody. Now that it works on souls, it’s impossible to use animals again, right?

Ariana thought for a moment and said, "First, design a spell to sense ghosts and use it for experiments. If it works, we can start experimenting with the binding spell. It won't kill anyone anyway."

Thinking of the disgusting surveillance, Ariana sneered and said, "If our whereabouts are exposed again, I will go on a killing spree in Hogwarts and capture and torture all these ghosts to see who dares to be a spy again. They are dead, and Hogwarts doesn't even pay them. I wonder what these ghosts want?"

Do they have to pay rent to live in Hogwarts? But they don’t have a room, and they don’t eat.

Draco helpfully added, "If you say so, Professor Binns is still teaching students, and he certainly doesn't get paid."

"Maybe it's because he doesn't want a salary that Dumbledore didn't fire him even though he taught the class terribly." Ariana added fuel to the fire and complained that Dumbledore was stingy.

"That must be it," Draco agreed immediately.

After the afternoon classes ended, Ariana followed Draco towards Slytherin when a fourth-year Slytherin stopped them.

"Colin, Professor Snape said that if you have nothing to do, he wants you to go to his office." The man seemed to be called Grave Wentworth, a pure-blood.

Ariana had something else to do later, and she guessed what Snape wanted her to do, so she asked Greve, "Can you run an errand for me? Tell Professor Snape that I can't go over because of something."

Given Ariana's current status in Slytherin, even Farley would be willing to help, not to mention Greve who came from a small family.

"Of course." He smiled and ran away.

Draco hesitated and said, "You don't even want to listen to Professor Snape's message? That's not good, is it? He was defending you yesterday."

He could feel that Ariana and Snape's relationship had improved a lot recently, although the tension between them was still very strong.

But they discussed various magical theories and even made plans to do experiments together.

Ariana said with certainty, "No, I know what he wants to say now. He probably saw me talking to Mr. Barrow in the Great Hall. Dumbledore looked over at me several times at that time."

Snape was not the type to meddle in other people's affairs. This was probably another task assigned by Dumbledore. Ariana could imagine the Black Bat's frustrated mood.

"Then don't go. From now on, no matter which professor wants to see you, let them come to the Slytherin common room themselves." Draco immediately put aside his hesitation.

Seeing her good friend's determined face and thinking of the scene he imagined, Ariana was afraid of going too far and hurriedly said a few words to smooth things over.

"Not really. If there is something really, I will still go. The only place I don't want to go now is the principal's office. I don't even want to see him." Be sure to win first, otherwise it will be suffocating to see him. You can't ask for trouble.

Draco immediately followed suit and said, "If you really have something to say to him in the future, let me say it."

Anyway, he is not afraid of anyone now, even if that person is the most powerful person in the wizarding world.

Ariana smiled happily and nodded immediately, saying, "Sure, that will make you more courageous. You dared to stand in front of me yesterday and face Dumbledore's questioning."

Draco looked so handsome when he spoke righteously to Dumbledore yesterday.

Chapter 127: Weekend Update

Draco was very happy to be recognized by his good friend, and he patted his chest and took on the responsibility.

"Of course. I promised you that I would do anything you didn't want to do. Now I'll add one more thing: I'll say anything you don't want to say." Good friends should help each other.

"You're the best boyfriend in the whole world," Ariana immediately complimented him.

Draco, not to be outdone, also praised: "You are also the best girlfriend in the world."

After the two of them encouraged each other for a few words, their previous depression was swept away, and they walked towards the Slytherin common room chatting and laughing.

Ariana really had something to do and it wasn't just an excuse not to go see Snape.

She asked Adrian to gather the Slytherin half-bloods, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then said, "I haven't made it clear before that members of the Dueling Club cannot participate in the Dueling Tournament. If anyone wants to withdraw now, they can do so."

If an employee participates and wins, the other contestants will think there is something fishy going on. It is also inappropriate to have him fail on purpose. It is better to set this rule from the beginning.

To Ariana's surprise, no one wanted to withdraw.

After all, only the top three in the duel competition will receive prize money and honorary trophies, but there are 10 employees selected. If they do not graduate, they will have income every year and can also manage students from other colleges. Both the face and the substance are in place.

Not all half-bloods in Slytherin are poor, but they lack opportunities to make a name for themselves. Even if it is just to follow Ariana, they will not quit.

Seeing that no one had withdrawn from the competition, Ariana continued, "As for the public interview, I hope you all agree. After all, you can't participate in the duel tournament, and this is your only chance to show your fighting ability to others. Of course, if you really don't want to, I won't force you."

To put it bluntly, the dueling tournament is to show the outside world what students have gained at Hogwarts.

Let employers other than the Ministry of Magic know their strengths, and everyone will have another way out after graduation.

Or when seeking investment from aristocratic families to conduct research, there are also written honors to prove one's ability.

"We all have no problems." Adrian answered for everyone.

Ariana nodded.

"Since everyone agrees, let's hold the interviews near Black Lake. It's relatively open there and suitable for combat. The interviews will be held this Sunday. The top ten will be hired after the interviews, leaving us two weeks to prepare for the November competition."

Ariana decided to schedule each preliminary match on the night after Quidditch ended, so that the contestants' emotions could be pushed to the highest point through the game.

After the main things were discussed, Ariana also discussed some details of the interview duel with Adrian.

At this moment, Snape suddenly appeared in the lounge.

"Our genius lady is becoming more and more arrogant. The Headmaster has to come to the Slytherin common room in person if he wants to see her. And all she's doing is discussing how to defeat the students who are powerless against her."

Snape's tone was full of sarcasm, which showed how angry he was.

Forget about Dumbledore, after all, that old honey is not a human being, but Snape thought he was pretty good to this little thorn, but he didn't expect that he would end up being treated the same as that old honey.

Ariana handed the interview duel schedule in her hand to Adrian, then followed Snape to his office before speaking.

"The professor wanted to see me because of my conversation with Mr. Barrow this morning. Is Dumbledore afraid that I might develop a spell that would be harmful to ghosts?" Ariana sneered speechlessly.

Snape had no intention of hiding anything for Dumbledore.

"The great Headmaster Dumbledore has withdrawn his surveillance on you. He is afraid of harming innocent ghosts in the school. He hopes you won't study spells that harm ghosts." He also imitated Ariana's sarcasm.

Ariana no longer wanted to complain about Dumbledore's shamelessness.

"Since they're spies, they're not innocent. Besides, I won't trust my safety to anyone. If anyone dares to reveal my whereabouts again, I'll let them know they can't even be a ghost."

Her fierce voice was so loud that it would be heard by any ghost nearby.

Snape ignored her threat and asked curiously, "Have you found a research direction for ghost-killing spells?"

Even though her relationship with Snape had eased somewhat, Ariana had not forgotten that he was still under the control of Dumbledore, and she had no interest in answering any of his questions.

"If you're all right, Professor, I'm going to go back to the lounge to read. After all, I have to return the book within two months." Ariana said calmly.

Snape understood Ariana's attitude, and he didn't force her, but just reminded her of one thing.

"Don't challenge Dumbledore's bottom line recently. Don't you understand? Yesterday, when he lamented that if you were a Gryffindor, he was actually giving you a subtle warning."

Quirrell has been acting more and more impatient recently, so it's inevitable that Dumbledore finds Ariana, this variable, annoying, and really wants to deal with her seriously regardless of the consequences.

If this kid grows up and doesn't follow Voldemort's extreme path, he can really make Slytherin rise.

Why can those reckless men in Gryffindor act so recklessly? It’s because Gryffindor has Dumbledore. No matter whether it is a camp or a country, in the end, strength prevails.

Ariana understood what Snape meant, but she was still the same as before. She would never compromise her present self for an illusory future.

"My opinion is completely opposite to the professor's. Now, as long as I don't kill or burn anything, I will not be able to cross Dumbledore's bottom line, because his primary target is the mysterious man." Ariana said bluntly.

Seeing Snape glaring at her, Ariana had no intention of stopping.

"He even placed a bait like the Philosopher's Stone in a Hogwarts full of young wizards. He simply doesn't take other people's lives seriously."

Ariana really couldn't understand Gryffindor's way of thinking.

Seeing that Ariana had guessed Dumbledore's intention and said it so bluntly, Snape yelled at her in frustration.

"Shut up, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Ariana sneered and retorted, "You say it doesn't matter? Professor Quirrell spied on me several times. Isn't he trying to implicate me? Dumbledore is always on guard against me. Isn't he afraid that I will join You-Know-Who's forces?"

These people say one thing, but what they actually do is completely different.

Looking at the speechless Snape who was squeezed by her, Ariana asked doubtfully, "Dumbledore's weakness is Hogwarts. I wonder what the You-Know-Who cares about?"

She didn't feel very safe just studying the three unforgivable curses.

Chapter 128 Give me the explanation of Cruciatus Curse and Killing Curse

Snape wanted to refuse to answer Ariana's question, but suddenly thought of the disappointing Harry.

He said thoughtfully, "The mysterious man's only flaw is that he's the savior. Are you going to protect him?"

Snape was very skeptical. Could Harry still keep his life if he continued to fool around with the youngest son of the Weasley family and complete his mission?

They both grew up in the Muggle world and both lost their parents, so why couldn't Harry be as self-reliant as Ariana and be on high alert as soon as he sensed any danger?

So, Snape wanted these two to become friends, and maybe Harry could be like Draco.

He hopes Harry will grow under Ariana's influence, and now he can clearly see the growth of his godson.

Ariana didn't understand what the other person meant, so she just grumbled, "If Potter is You-Know-Who's weakness, then he should be the one protecting everyone. Otherwise, this savior is too weak, isn't he?"

Snape was just having a flash of inspiration. Dumbledore would never let Harry enter Slytherin.

Ariana is an extremely rational person. It is impossible for her to like the reckless and impulsive Harry. It is good enough that these two do not fight.
