Chapter 200 A Big Secret

Lockhart jerked his wand out, striking a standard wizarding duel pose.

He looked at the smiling Anton, swallowed, and trembled all over.

"Okay, okay." Lockhart sighed.

He put away his wand, and sat slumped on an oak barrel in the kitchen, "It's not that I'm powerless, really, Anton, I've dealt with so many powerful wizards, I'm really good. "

He pursed his lips, "But facing you, I always feel powerless."

Anton shrugged, "You should be glad you didn't release the spell just now. I'm in a particularly bad mood today, and I might not be able to control myself to do something terrible to you."

Lockhart looked up in astonishment, staring blankly at Anton, blinking his eyes.

He stood up, with a hesitant expression on his face, and took two steps back and forth. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he turned around vigorously and stared at Anton vigorously.

"It's impossible for me to stay in this school. It's too dangerous here. My life has finally reached a stage of rapid improvement. I can't die. If I die, you won't know how unwilling I will be."

"It's impossible for me to time travel with you, that kind of thing is more dangerous."

"Anton..." Lockhart begged, "I'll exchange a big secret with you, and you promise to keep it for me, okay?"

"Big secret?"

"Yes, a secret that you will definitely find a bargain."

"Oh?" Anton raised his eyebrows, "Tell me about it."

"How could I say it so casually!" Lockhart's eyes widened. "You will form an 'unbreakable oath' spell with me."

"Yes." Anton replied simply, staring at Lockhart coldly, "If your so-called big secret doesn't satisfy me, I won't tell you about it because of the 'unbreakable oath' spell. but I will give you a 'Forgetting Curse' to wash away all your magic skills from your memory."

Lockhart was obviously taken aback, "How is this possible!"

His complexion changed for a long time, and finally exhaled forcefully, "Okay!"

Oh huh~

So, you really have a big secret?

And think it's enough to convince me?

Anton's eyes lit up, this is really possible, anyway, he didn't intend to tell Lockhart's secret to the outside world.

"Okay, you come to chant the mantra." Anton stretched out his hand very knowledgably.

Lockhart held out his hand too, and they held each other, and...

"It's better for you to release it. I think this can show my sincerity enough. You see, I won't do things secretly."

Anton sneered, "The premise is that you know how to do it."

He was stunned for a moment, smacked his lips, and looked at Lockhart, "Don't you tell me that you don't know how to use this spell?"

Lockhart grinned, forced a smile, "You don't need to remind me, okay, you can just release it."

"Oh~"

Anton's face slumped, "I can't either!"

"!!!"

Lockhart said he couldn't understand, "How is it possible, you are so good!"

Anton shook off his hand and looked at him helplessly, "Although it makes me feel good if you praise me like this, I really don't. Have you forgotten that I am only in the second grade this year , and it’s been less than a month since the second grade started?”

This is a fact.

Even if Anton studied hard, he had only just finished the first grade.

Lockhart, Lockhart, are you kidding me?

Thank you for being laughed at.

Now...

The two stared wide-eyed and remained silent for a long time.

The air became extraordinarily quiet.

"Anton..." Lockhart hesitated for a moment, staring into Anton's eyes, "Can I trust you?"

Anton sneered, "I have my pride, and I will keep the secret for you if I say a secret exchange. I'm not a person like you who is full of lies."

"That's good!" Lockhart clenched his fists vigorously, "I tell you, you can help me keep a secret, and you can't stop me from leaving this school."

"certainly."

"Actually, you should tell Professor Dumbledore that."

Lockhart didn't take it seriously, "I'll write him an apology after I leave."

Tut tut.

Has Lao Deng's external image always been so easy to bully? Just have such a good temper? I'm afraid you don't know how terrifying old Deng is now.

Anton shook his head. He had already reminded him that benevolence should be done to the utmost, so do whatever you want.

"You come with me."

Lockhart walked straight towards the fireplace in the corner of the kitchen, took out a bag from his wizard robes, grabbed some Floo powder from it and put it in Anton's hand.

"This is a one-way passage, and it can only go to a mysterious place."

Anton nodded, "I know that, there is a stone corridor inside, which is full of lightning."

Lockhart turned his head in surprise, and asked in a harsh voice, "Have you ever gone in?"

Anton shook his head.

Oh, Lockhart breathed a sigh of relief.

"We'll talk about it when we get inside."

Bang~~

Floo powder fell, green flames burst out, and Lockhart disappeared instantly.

Anton thought for a while, pulled out his wand and cast an Iron Armor Charm on himself.

"Iron Armor Protection."

Then he inserted the wand into the hidden button of the sleeve of the wizard's robe, and then walked into the fireplace.

The flames spread.

...

"Thunder and lightning represent new life. In the forest, thunder and lightning will bring fire. The forest fire will burn large areas of trees and animals. After that, the fertile soil will grow more vigorous trees."

"Thunder and lightning also represent the most powerful natural spell in nature, and there is no natural phenomenon more breathtaking than thunder and lightning."

"Thunderbolt also represents..."

Seeing Lockhart, who was eloquent and knowledgeable, Anton was a little surprised.

He really didn't expect that Lockhart would know so much.

Facing Anton's gaze, Lockhart blushed suddenly, "I'm also from Ravenclaw, isn't it normal that I know a lot?"

Anton just looked at him with a smile.

Oh.

This kid is so annoying, what kind of expression is this!

Lockhart was furious, he stamped his feet, he danced, he...

He was a little helpless, "Well, anyway, I don't have much image in your eyes, so it's okay to tell you."

"When I was in school, I was the only one in my family who had awakened to magic. I always thought I was the most unique."

"Later I was sorted into Ravenclaw. You don't know. At that time, the Sorting Hat hesitated between Ravenclaw and Slytherin for a long time."

Ps: Rowling's original setting.

Slytherin?

Anton had a weird expression, he looked up and down for a long time, what did he look like?

Lockhart was a little frustrated, "You know that feeling? Obviously you have always been the best, the most unique, and then you enter a new level, only to find that here you are the most ordinary. No matter how hard you try, It can't compare to those who are talented."

"I almost failed my class."

"When I was in second grade, I was trying to do everything possible."

"That's when Rita, a journalist who had recently risen to fame, came into my sight."

"She's also a Ravenclaw graduate, and I hope to get some help from her to make me look better than others."

"We communicated frequently by letter and became good friends."

"I told her that her news that was trying to create a gimmick would not be liked by people." Lockhart smiled smugly. "I helped her find the easiest way to develop."

"The sage fell, and the prodigal son returned. Just write about these two aspects."

"She agrees with my point of view and has also embarked on this path. I have to say that I have greatly helped her on this path to becoming a famous reporter."

Anton looked at him indifferently, "I'm not interested in the story about you and reporter Rita."

Lockhart shook his head, pointing to the stone door deep in the thunder and lightning.

"It was she who told me about this place, Hufflepuff's Inheritance Chamber."

"Hufflepuff?" Anton couldn't help thinking of the picture in Tom's memory, it seemed that Tom had mentioned it.

Calling this a boring inheritance is very contemptuous.

It seems to say - natural? Animagus.

"Rita told me that after entering, you can learn the Animagus in a very unique way."

"But she was wrong." Lockhart smiled triumphantly, "Only those who fail to complete the task can learn the Animagus."

"If you do it successfully, you will be rewarded to learn an animal's magic."

Lockhart put his hands on his hips, looked very proud, raised his head and puffed out his chest.

"What I got was the magic of the night-walking long-haired centipede."

Oh, Anton has a little impression of this now extinct magical animal.

Nocturnal long-haired centipede, a magical animal with a 5X danger level, good at magic like the 'Forgetting Curse'.

Naturally gifted with the Oblivion Charm, this is why this magical animal is classified as a 5X danger class. It is also the reason for being hunted to extinction.

Too sleepy, there is one chapter left to get up and type tomorrow morning.
