Bab 109: Chapter 109: Parseltongue, Magic Bracelet
"Live for yourself!" After hearing what Professor Lockhart said, Harry murmured to himself, his eyes becoming brighter and his whole body trembling slightly. Lockhart looked at this scene, nodded slightly, and encouraged: "Harry, you have to understand that in the wizarding world, there are only a handful of people with magical talents, and those with Parseltongue are even rarer. You have magical talents that others don't have, which will make it easier for you to learn magic."
"Really? Professor." Hearing the professor say this, Harry's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Of course." Lockhart affirmed without hesitation: "Do you know why I asked you to come to my office?"
"Why? Professor." Harry couldn't help asking.
"Because I don't want to see a genius go astray because of other people's prejudices." Lockhart said decisively. Then he explained: "I know a young wizard who was extremely talented in magic, but because of some initial prejudices, he stepped into the path of black magic, and finally made himself crazy, his life worse than death."
Harry suddenly shuddered when he thought of the scene described by Lockhart and then brought himself into it.
Seeing Harry's reaction, Lockhart's lips curled up slightly. Well, the case he cited was Voldemort, and he had a copy of Voldemort's Horcrux that was still at school age. Overall, there is nothing wrong with this case.
Looking at Harry who was a little scared, Lockhart continued to encourage: "So, Harry, don't be afraid, don't waste your talents in vain. You have to believe that your talent will be an advantage for you in the future."
Hearing Professor Lockhart's encouragement, Harry nodded vigorously. The nervousness and apprehension he had felt before disappeared and was replaced by excitement.
"Harry, I need your help with something." Lockhart looked at Harry and said with a smile.
Harry: "?"
Seeing Harry's confused expression, Lockhart said softly: "I want to learn your Parseltongue."
"Huh?" Harry felt dizzy after hearing Lockhart's request. He had heard Ron say before that his Parseltongue talent was so evil and a symbol of the dark wizard. Before entering the office, he was filled with disgust at his own gifts. He would pay any price to rid himself of his gift of Parseltongue. Now, with the encouragement of Professor Lockhart, he is not so repelled by the gift of Parseltongue. But it still feels a bit incredible that someone would be willing to learn Parseltongue.
Seeing that Harry was confused, Lockhart smiled slightly, waved his wand, and a magic bracelet floated in front of Harry: "Harry, I told you not to underestimate your talent. The talent of Parseltongue is extremely rare in the entire wizarding world and has great research value. It just so happens that I'm doing some magic research. Parseltongue, a language full of magic, I guess will be of great help. So, I need your help."
Hearing what Professor Lockhart said, Harry nodded subconsciously, and then kept staring at the magic bracelet floating in front of him. This bracelet had a faint silver light as a whole. It was inlaid with some turquoise magic gems. On the silver-white metal surface of the bracelet, there was a line of small runes engraved on it. It looked very delicate, full of mystery and nobility.
Seeing the anticipation in Harry's eyes, Lockhart smiled and said, "Harry, as a professor, how could I let a young wizard work in vain? This is my gift to you. At the same time, I will also teach you some of the magic spells I researched later. Help you develop your talents."
Hearing this, Harry nodded with excitement, his eyes full of excitement. He quickly took the magic bracelet in Lockhart's hand and gently touched it with his fingers, feeling its delicate touch.
Watching Harry's movements, Lockhart introduced softly: "Harry, I believe you will like this magic bracelet very much. It can increase the power of the spell and enhance your strength. The most important thing is that it can increase your mental power and improve learning efficiency. Through the magic bracelet and subsequent special training, you will soon be able to perfectly control your Parseltongue talent. I believe this will be helpful to you."
"Thank you. Thank you, Professor." Harry said with gratitude after hearing Lockhart's introduction. Although he was enlightened by Professor Lockhart, he was not as repulsive to the gift of Parseltongue as before. But if he can control Parseltongue freely, that would be great.
Soon, under Lockhart's gaze, Harry put the silver-white magic bracelet on his hand and played with it repeatedly. Looking at Harry's expression, Lockhart didn't say much. After all, he is still a young wizard, and it is normal to be happy when he receives a gift.
Cough! After a while, Lockhart coughed lightly as he saw the happy expression on Harry's face slowly fade. Looking at Harry who had come to his senses, he smiled and said, "Okay, Harry, let's study your Parseltongue."
As he spoke, Lockhart waved his wand, and a red dictionary floated over from the bookshelf and was placed in front of the two of them. Lockhart opened the dictionary, pointed to the word on page 1, and said to Harry with some anticipation: "Harry, try to translate this word in Parseltongue."
However, this process does not seem to be easy. Harry looked at the list of words in the dictionary, blushing, but couldn't say a word.
"Professor, I can't do it." After a while, Harry raised his head helplessly, with a hint of apology on his face, and said to Professor Lockhart: "Professor, I want to do it, but I don't know how to."
As he spoke, he subconsciously touched his bracelet, fearing that Professor Lockhart would take it back.
Lockhart didn't pay attention to Harry's movements. He thought for a moment and comforted Harry: "Harry, don't worry. It may be that you are not proficient in the talent of Parseltongue, or you lack direct stimulation. In this way, we can use the magic bracelet to increase your spirit and try again."
As he spoke, Lockhart waved his wand and cast a spell on the dictionary. The effect of the spell is very simple; when people read the dictionary, they will feel like they are facing the face of a snake. Well, he suddenly had some evil thoughts. If he cast a spell on the dictionary, Harry could see Voldemort's noseless snake face. Will it directly stimulate the Parseltongue talent?
Shaking his head slightly, he collected his thoughts and paid full attention to Harry's movements. Harry, who had just activated his magic bracelet, suddenly felt a cold feeling in his brain. Immediately afterward, Harry felt that the scene in front of him changed, and everything around him became extremely clear, as if he could even see traces of dust floating in the air. At the same time, he could keenly feel the friction texture between his clothes and his own skin, as well as the delicacy of the magic bracelet and the cold touch it brought. He could even vaguely feel the huge fluctuations of magic power emitted by Professor Lockhart. An inexplicable feeling of being in control arose. Harry quickly shook his head and focused on the dictionary in front of him. A series of words came to mind quickly, and at the same time, a snake's face appeared in his mind. But he didn't have any panic, instead, he was very calm. He quickly scanned the first word on page 1 and tried to translate it.
"Hiss!" Soon, a hoarse, eerie, strange, and evil voice sounded in Lockhart's ears.
