In the Harry Potter Without Harry Potter

Chapter 138: Hostility



Chapter 138: Hostility

No matter how many times she tried later, Hermione didn't succeed even once.

Her situation was completely different from Jon's, obviously, there was no problem with the spell casting and the incantation, but the rock cake on the plate just wasn't affected by the spell in any way.

Contrary to the failure on their side, Hagrid brought Gabrielle along the lake and caught several fish in his net, both of them were in a very happy mood.

After the failed experiment, Jon and Hermione did not stay in the driving seat, they could not stay here too long as they had their afternoon classes after lunch.

After saying goodbye to Hagrid and Gabrielle, the two went back inside the wagon.

"This could be my personal mistake, not an error in your thinking, you can try again with someone else."

Hermione still comforted Jon, Jon waved his hand unconcerned.

"It's okay, I'm not that fragile, it's just a spell that didn't work."

Just as the two talked and pushed the door into the wagon, an abrupt voice suddenly sounded near them.

"Who let you enter this door? It's clearly written in the school rules that you can't enter a room without a door sign in the wagon, don't you guys know that?"

Jon turned to look in the direction the voice had come from and spotted a boy with glasses, trademark red hair and a Prefect badge pinned to his chest, standing just three meters away from them.

Percy looked like he had just come out of Professor McGonagall's Deputy Headmistress's office, and happened to spot Jon and Hermione pushing their way into the wagon, and as a Prefect, he asked them with a serious attitude.

To his attitude, Jon has no discontent, Percy's character is a little unpleasant, but he also does everything according to the rules, without Hagrid's invitation, they really can't open this door which leads to the driving seat.

"We received Hagrid's invitation, Mr Weasley, and it is also written in the school rules that with the permission of the faculty or a person in charge of the room, it is alright to enter a room without a sign, isn't it?"

Hearing Jon's words, Percy did not immediately respond by saying something but looked deeply at Jon before saying in an inexplicable tone.

"Don't think you are entitled to privileges just because you did something for Professor Dumbledore, Green."

Jon froze, and before he could say anything, Hermione jumped in front of him and looked at Percy with an unkind expression.

"I don't think Jon has ever thought that way, Prefect Weasley, he has never acted as if he ought to be superior."

Percy didn't bother to argue with Hermione, nor did he continue to stay here, he grunted coldly, then turned around and left.

Looking at his back, Jon touched his head somewhat inexplicably, he could not remember when he had pissed off this Ron's brother and did not understand why he seemed to be speaking as if he was targeting himself.

But he didn't bother to delve into this matter.

Where there are people, it won't always be harmonious, and there's no way Jon can make everyone like him, and it's Percy's right to dislike him for some reason.

Of course, if he continued to be hostile for no reason, Jon wouldn't tolerate it because he is Ron's brother.

Jon and Hermione ate lunch together in the great hall, and he then once again thanked Hermione for her help before they parted ways.

The end of the school year is getting closer and closer, and the study atmosphere on the wagon is getting more and more intense.

Even the first and second-year students who were just rescued and brought here at the beginning of this year have to meet certain score requirements to officially enter the corresponding grade class in the next school year, otherwise, they will be held back and have to join the new students at the beginning of next academic year.

Jon was not on the wagon for the vast majority of this semester, and without the usual classroom performance, there was no way for him to be exempted from the final exam and get his grades directly, as he was during the last school year.

But even during that time at Hogwarts Castle, he was not entirely unproductive. He learned a lot of magic spells and transfiguration techniques under Aberforth's guidance, so now that he has returned to the wagon, the second-year courses are easy for Jon.

During this period, Jon still has not given up studying the modified version of the " levitation charm " matter.

He asked Justin to give it a try, the boy who would have entered Eton if he hadn't got brought to Hogwarts, knew even more about gravity than Hermione.

But the result is still the same, after he changed the concept, there is still no way to successfully use the levitation charm, not to mention like Jon, directly change the effect of the original levitation charm.

This made Jon notice for the first time that he is special.

When he got the ring from Slughorn, he heard him say that his 'will' is much stronger than normal people, but such characteristics are not visible on the outside, usually, Jon only felt that he learned magic easier than others, but did not notice more abnormalities.

Now it seems that the strong 'will' brings him the benefit of not only faster learning of spells and the ability to use the magic ring that others cannot simply use, his 'will' can even directly change the function of the levitation charm, which is a kind of transformation.

It's just that Jon doesn't feel that such a gift is a blessing from the heavens.

He vaguely felt that the reason why his 'will' seems to be stronger than others most likely has something to do with the transmigration.

Since there is no way to promote the modified magic spell, Jon didn't dwell on it too much, nor did he stop collecting magic power from other students.

In the last week before the final exam, he found some excuse to ask the students of the first to third year on the wagon and part of the fourth year to help and collected all of their magic, but he didn't continue to ask fifth year students to help him as he had felt the limit of the general counter-spell already.

In other words, Jon's own magic level is just equal to the normal fourth-grade students, which is already considered a very high level of talent.

And the collection of all this magic, lets the original light blue gem colour have some slightly visible changes, but it is still far off from the previous deep red.

But after collecting all this magic, Jon finally obtained a complete picture of the restricted book that was written by Snape on The Invisible Sword: Sectumsempra.

He did not rush to study it but took the time to copy down the contents, and then knocked on the Headmaster's office door in the evening of the day the final exams began.

Dumbledore was reading a letter and after seeing Jon walk in, he stuffed it back inside the envelope, looking slightly tired with a smile on his face.

"Good evening, Jon. I heard about your Transfiguration exam today from Minerva, and you have performed very well."
