Chapter 104: Chapter 106: Another Graduation Season
Time flew by quickly.
Due to Hogwarts' long-term closed management, the students felt that the weather in April, which should have been pleasant, was somewhat stifling. Everyone longed to know what was happening in the outside world.
Who could tell them what the situation outside was like?
Had Voldemort resurrected? Were the Dark Lords fighting?
If someone knew these students were curious, they would surely tell them that Voldemort had not resurrected, Grindelwald and the Dark Lord Peter seemed to have vanished without a trace, and there wasn't even the slightest commotion.
Wilson remained calm.
He knew that as long as he and Dumbledore were at the school, nothing major could happen outside, even though one was a student and the other the headmaster.
Wilson had the Marauder's Map in his possession, allowing him to monitor Dumbledore's whereabouts at all times. When Dumbledore left the school, it meant that Grindelwald was about to take action.
At that time, Wilson would also quietly leave the school.
He would cause a huge commotion outside in the guise of Peter Pettigrew, attracting Dumbledore back to protect Hogwarts, thus covering for Grindelwald's actions.
This was the inconvenience of being in school...
Grindelwald seemed to understand Wilson's predicament and refrained from causing any trouble for three or four months, not even a hint of news.
Or rather, Grindelwald had not yet alarmed Dumbledore.
Everyone thought the magical world's turmoil was due to the Dark Lords, but no one expected the real chaos to be because of Hogwarts' vacation.
Nothing happened outside.
Hogwarts was also peaceful.
A few Slytherin students tried to provoke the Gryffindor students, hoping to make them fight with the Hufflepuffs. However, they ended up fighting the Gryffindors themselves...
In the end, a dozen people were hung on the wall by Wilson.
The Slytherin students seemed to have a problem; they tried to provoke their rival, Gryffindor, whose students never minded having a fight with Slytherins first!
Life at Hogwarts was always so dull and boring.
As the semester still required exams in all subjects, everyone gradually focused on their studies, fearing they wouldn't pass the final exams.
Of course.
Everyone agreed that the Charms exam was the easiest.
Professor Flitwick's standard for first-year students was simply to have them control a pineapple to dance a tap dance across a desk. Wasn't that just a Dancing Charm?
The problem was...
This was a challenge for Wilson.
Until he walked into the exam room, he hurriedly tried to memorize the incantation for the Dancing Charm. But it was already too late, so he could only stare at the pineapple on the desk.
Why couldn't the Charms exam...
Test them on the Killing Curse?
"Mr. Wright, please give it a try."
Professor Flitwick stretched out his small hand, smiling as he encouraged his student, "Although you couldn't quickly learn a new charm in class, your diligence and proficiency with spells are unmatched by other students. I've always believed you are an excellent student..."
"Yes, Professor."
Wilson slowly pulled out his wand.
This exam was probably the hardest one. He struggled to use the Levitation Charm to make the pineapple on the desk jump and wriggle across the table...
Professor Flitwick was stunned.
Even though Wilson's performance was rough, far less convenient than a Dancing Charm, Professor Flitwick still gave a generous evaluation. The Ravenclaw head was very lenient.
In comparison.
The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was even more lenient.
Professor Amelia Bones required everyone to be proficient in using the Full Body-Bind Curse in emergencies because it was one of the simplest and most practical offensive spells, effective against dark creatures and dark wizards alike.
This exam was incredibly easy.
For Wilson, using the Full Body-Bind Curse was like drinking water. He had previously immobilized all the students in Hogwarts with this spell, so he earned a direct pass...
Amelia also believed Wilson was trained by Crouch Sr. in the way Aurors were educated, so there was no need to worry about his Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
After the exams.
Amelia, this strong and strict female professor, would no longer teach at Hogwarts, as she would soon become the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
That was the most powerful department in the magical world.
It was undoubtedly a significant promotion.
Many Hufflepuff students were reluctant to part with this Defense Against the Dark Arts professor because she was their Hufflepuff teacher and the aunt of their housemate, Elvin, even though she was strict with all students.
However...
Amelia was not bothered by such matters.
She knew very well that Dumbledore had not announced the next Defense Against the Dark Arts professor: Newt Scamander, a Hufflepuff legend...
Once these students knew that Scamander would be their next year's teacher, they would probably cheer her departure, as Amelia herself thought.
Although Amelia preferred Newt Scamander's brother, Theseus Scamander, one of the most outstanding Aurors recorded in the Ministry of Magic.
Compared to Defense Against the Dark Arts...
The Potions exam was undoubtedly the hardest!
For half a year, Professor Snape had been in a bad mood, strictly requiring first-year students to complete the basic preparation of thirteen potion ingredients within the exam time. This was even more troublesome than some simple potion configurations, as many ingredients were unfamiliar.
Naturally.
Few students could achieve this.
However, Professor Snape said nothing.
He gave a passing grade to students who prepared more than three but less than five ingredients, like Wilson Wright; a good grade to those who prepared more than five but less than ten ingredients, like Elvin Bones; and an excellent grade to those who prepared more than ten ingredients, like Cedric.
No one knew what this Potions professor was thinking...
Only Snape knew. It was the record from Lily's first year, and no one had broken it. He became increasingly obsessed with the Lily he once mutually loved.
In comparison, the Transfiguration exam was simple.
Just turn a mouse into a snuffbox.
In the remaining subjects, only the History of Magic exam was a bit troublesome. Wilson diligently answered the questions and finally got a passing grade;
As for Professor Sprout's Herbology exam, Wilson got an excellent grade while taking care of the Devil's Snare, which required students to remain calm or be skilled at using the Lumos spell.
In the Astronomy exam.
Wilson also got an excellent grade.
Because the first-year Astronomy exam required marking the positions of planets and stars in the solar system, this exam was incredibly easy.
As for the Flying exam...
Madam Hooch allowed Quidditch players to pass with excellent grades.
After a whole year's worth of exams, Wilson was surprised to find he had received six excellent grades and two passing grades, ending his first school year.
Honestly.
Wilson himself was a bit surprised.
Aside from Charms and Potions, he managed to get top marks in everything else.
Of course.
This wasn't as impressive as Cedric's perfect scores in all subjects.
[Main Task: Earnestly Complete Your First Year at Hogwarts (1/1), Task Completed, Reward: 1000 Magic Points, 1000 Health Points.]
[Main Task: Earnestly Complete Your Second Year at Hogwarts (0/1), Task Not Completed.]
This was the accumulation of power.
In this world, the most important thing for Wilson was magic power. The more main tasks like this, the better. Unfortunately, it seemed there were only seven years.
With the end of all exams at Hogwarts, the first school year came to a close, and the students who had studied hard for a year finally got a long summer break.
Likewise.
This was also the season for farewells.
Seventh-year students were graduating and leaving Hogwarts.
From then on, they would have to enter society and seek jobs in the magical world, a challenge most graduates had to face.
Even Voldemort had to look for a job after graduation...
Except for the few who could intern at the Ministry of Magic, life wasn't as rosy for others, as there were too many wizards seeking jobs and too few opportunities.
This was the state of the magical world.
Every graduating class had a high unemployment rate.
"With such low employment rates and high unemployment, it's no wonder some wizards turn to the Dark Lords..."
