Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 234 Speech Ended! 4 Beast Marks!

The badgers were somewhat flustered when Dudley publicly exposed their violation of school rules by having them go out at night for extra lessons.

But when Dudley asked them to develop the combat applications of food magic, they couldn't help but let their imaginations run wild and their inspiration burst forth.

Studying the magic of food is their specialty!

"Hahaha……"

As soon as Dudley finished speaking, some students in the Slytherin and Gryphon groups couldn't help but burst out laughing, while some students in the Eagle group also showed strange expressions of not being able to hold back their laughter.

"hehe!"

Dali turned his gaze and sneered twice.

The students from the Lion, Snake, and Eagle academies were so frightened that they quickly stopped laughing.

"Smile! Why aren't you smiling anymore?"

Dudley said in an unfriendly tone, "Do you really think that going to an abandoned classroom to fight in the middle of the night and sneaking into the forbidden library to steal dark magic that you can't control is any better than using food magic to eat a midnight snack?"

Many students in the Lion, Snake, and Eagle teams immediately showed signs of panic.

They never expected that Dali had such a complete collection of dirt on them, and that he would so openly reveal it in public.

Keda's words didn't stop because of their panic: "Just because I said Hufflepuff has a problem doesn't mean the three of you schools are without problems."

On the contrary, all three of your colleges have just as many problems!

Hufflepuff House did perform poorly in the test barrier, but the kind-hearted nature of the Hufflepuff students is beyond reproach!

They are genuinely kind and loyal; otherwise, they wouldn't have all passed my classroom screening!

As for your three houses, Gryffindor lacks courage, Ravenclaw lacks wisdom, and as for Slytherin... what ambition do they have!

What, you're not convinced?

Then I have to ask, how many people in Gryffindor, known for their courage, dare to call Voldemort a pig?

Ravenclaw, known for their wisdom, how many of them could rationally analyze Voldemort's strength, weakness, life and death, and remain unaffected by related rumors?

And you Slytherins, known for your ambition, your greatest ambition is probably to be Voldemort's lackeys, isn't it?

As soon as Dali said these words, the students and deans of the Lion, Snake, and Eagle Colleges all changed their expressions repeatedly.

Some people moved their lips, wanting to say something in their defense or to complain, but in the end no one actually spoke.

"Cough cough cough..."

Dumbledore, standing to the side, clenched his fist and covered his mouth, coughing several times as if to make Dudley behave himself.

Meanwhile, Eckeris, in the intensive care unit on the second floor of the castle, was suffering terribly.

Because Voldemort's main spirit had been stimulated by something, it began to emit black magic from inside her stomach, causing Ecclesia extreme pain and discomfort.

Dali didn't see this scene. If he had, he would definitely have said: "Even without a nose, you can't stand being talked about!"

Our gaze returns to the playground.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Dali knew it was time to end his speech.

It has already produced very good results.

At least now, no student still harbors a deep-seated fear of those ugly black magic marks on the playground.

The rest depends on his and the professors' subtle influence, as well as the impact of Old Deng's "Great Wizard's Ideological Cognition Enhancement Course" created using his own portrait.

"It's almost time for lunch. Headmaster Dumbledore has already reminded me with a cough that he's hungry."

Dali concluded his speech with a much milder, more witty remark.

At the same time, a final summary and emphasis were made:

"More than a month ago, I set four conditions for entering my class: kindness and order, equality and non-discrimination, identification with the school and college, and solidarity and friendship."

This is a quality I hope everyone can possess and maintain.

Those students who haven't passed the selection process yet should reflect on this deeply. We're all from the same school, and I don't want to one day find myself on the opposite side of you, personally sending you off to your deaths…”

Dali paused here, omitting the harsh words he had already expressed but hadn't said aloud.

He then continued, "Today, I want to use this realistic speech to help the students who passed the four selection criteria understand that courage, wisdom, decisiveness, ambition, and perseverance are equally important qualities."

I hope that in the days to come, during the relatively peaceful and safe period in the magical world, everyone can absorb these qualities into themselves through training and reflection, and use these qualities to gradually improve themselves into qualified and powerful wizards.

Therefore, I announce that starting with this weekend's classes, we will add practical sparring sessions for students to strengthen their learning of offensive and defensive spells and combat skills.

Meanwhile, the trial space, which was subsequently modified with a testing barrier, will be open 24/7.

I don't mandate how often each student goes, but by the end of this school year, I don't want to see students at Hogwarts wearing fear and cowardice on their faces at the slightest sign of danger!

That concludes my remarks. You may now proceed to the auditorium for lunch.

Dudley abruptly ended his speech and flew down from the giant Black Magic Mark.

At the same time, he unleashed a powerful marking spell, conjuring up a giant red lion, a white python, a blue falcon, and a yellow honey badger.

Arrange the images of the four beasts in the sky, surrounding the Black Demon Mark in the center, posing as if to attack and bite.

This served as a perfect ending to Dali's speech.

His marking magic, though not as permanent as the Dark Mark cast by Barty the Younger by sacrificing his life, was almost impossible to remove.

However, it is enough to sustain this for one or two years, provided that no powerful being with equal or higher magical cultivation intervenes to disrupt it.

Dudley's act of creating the four Beasts' marks brightened the Hogwarts teachers and students, who had been listening to lectures all morning and whose expressions had been gloomy.

A bright light shone in most people's eyes.

It contains hope and confidence, courage and light.

……

Dali ate his lunch with great relish.

But Dumbledore and Snape didn't see it that way.

They had barely taken a couple of bites when Mrs. Pomfrey informed them that it was necessary to go to Eckeris's intensive care unit.

Slightly troubled, Dumbledore and Snape, whose face was so gloomy it looked like he wanted to eat someone, had no choice but to put down their cutlery and go over.

Early this morning, while Dumbledore was writing a batch of letters, he monitored the conversation between Ecclesiastes and Madam Pomfrey, who had come to deliver potions, through the meditative water mirror in the headmaster's room.

As Dudley had predicted, Ecclesia indeed used Snape as an excuse to explain the tattered blankets in the intensive care unit.

He also subtly inquired whether Mrs. Pomfrey had heard her screaming last night.

Mrs. Pomfrey had been taking care of the comatose Professor Moody all night, so she naturally said no, but she had overheard the discussion about several portraits in the corridor as she passed the intensive care unit, so she had also heard about Eckeris's screams in the middle of the night.

This perfectly confirms Ecclesiastes's fabricated story.

This greatly worried Madam Pomfrey. After the events of the last expedition to build the labyrinth in the Forbidden Forest, the other professors no longer held Snape in high regard for his repeated hurts to women.

Now Ecclesia's lovesickness has flared up to this extent again.

After some consideration, Madam Pomfrey decided it would be best to only inform Headmaster Dumbledore and Professor Snape, who were directly involved.

Don't escalate this any further.

But something big happened this morning; I had to give a speech to the whole school.

Mrs. Pomfrey decided to postpone discussing Ecclesia's matter until noon, so as not to affect Headmaster Dumbledore's plans.

That's why we're in this situation now.
