From Azkaban To Hogwarts

On Christmas morning, William was still sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by the movement outside the window.

'what's the situation? ’

He reached for the wand, cast an Iron Armor spell directly on himself, and then instantly rolled towards the bed against the wall. While his body was in contact with the wall, the bed under him quickly flew out under the magic effect. , causing William to fall towards the ground with the quilt.

While falling, William protected the back of his head with his left hand and waved the wand with his right hand, pointing directly in the direction of the sound - only then did he have time to look in that direction.

Then, dumbfounded, he let himself fall to the ground and sat up holding on to the ground.

‘Aren’t owls supposed to deliver letters to the office? Why knock on the bedroom window? ’

He looked carefully, and after confirming again that it was an owl, he stood up in his pajamas and waved his wand to open the window.

"Fortunately, I put the big bag of food in the bedroom to prevent the owls from rummaging through the food. Otherwise, I would have to get dressed and go out." William shook his head, took out the whole bag of owl food he bought, and waved his wand to clean it. After the table, a large amount was scattered on the table.

There was no choice, there were seven owls knocking on the window, and William didn't have enough containers, so he just let them divide it.

'What kind of letter is this urgent? Has Dumbledore cracked the secret of the diadem? ’

As the window opened, the cold wind blowing in made William's drowsiness disappear. He began to think about why these owls did not go to the office, but before he could start thinking, the owls lining up on the window sill flew in one after another, surrounding them. On the table.

'pack? ’ William took a look, put some clothes on himself, and walked over curiously—didn’t he order so many things?

Before he could pass by, the owl surrounding the table unloaded the package on its own and barked twice at William, as if to indicate that my work was done and not to affect my meal.

This operation made William smile. He waved his wand to close the window, then pointed at his poor quilt and let it return to the bed.

After moving the bed back and using a descaling spell to remove the dust on the quilt, William slowly walked to the package unloaded by the owl and inspected it with his wand.

‘There is no magic fluctuation, and it is highly likely to be safe. ’ William then picked up the package with his left hand and looked through it, “Who sent it, so many packages at once?”

Opening the package, you will find a packaged wine-filled chocolate with a card attached.

"Merry Christmas, little William-Tom."

William shuddered at the name, then realized it wasn't a Tom.

'I'm so used to shouting Old Tom, I almost forgot...'

He opened the package and threw a chocolate into his mouth. His eyebrows jumped up in surprise - such a good wine was so ruined?

‘Okay, the willfulness of the bar owner. ’

He excitedly examined the other package, and after confirming that it was harmless, he turned it to the front and opened the package.

It's also a small card, but from Hagrid.

Although the giant tried his best to make the words smaller, they were still ridiculously large, which made William couldn't help laughing.

'etc! ’

William suddenly realized something was wrong and started checking other packages without even looking at what Hagrid had sent.

The old professor's, Adams's, Singed's...

He opened the packages one by one and then held his head.

'Christmas present! Damn it, I obviously spent Christmas in Azkaban exchanging gifts in a simple cell, why did I forget all about it! ’

He looked fearfully and found that there was no owl outside the window. He calmed down a little, and then quickly rummaged through his belongings based on the names on the cards.

‘It’s a joke to spread the news. The students and professors who have been planning to stay on campus for more than a week have planned a perfect invasion of the lounge today, but they ended up having to work on gifts so early in the morning! ’

‘This is even more outrageous than becoming a king and having to clear the toilet in the game! ’

William rummaged through the boxes and began to prepare suitable gifts—things were already like this, and careful selection was no longer possible, so he had to fill in the holes first!

‘Don’t give me any more gifts later! ’ William quickly prepared seven gifts, then took out the packages he bought at the beginning of school from the cabinet and packed them carefully. Fortunately, with the help of magic, the work was not so tiring.

'It's outrageous to say that I actually bought this wrapping paper at the beginning of school...' William quickly filled out the card and sent his blessings, 'When school started, I also considered how to set up punishments and rewards, and even prepared small kindergartens for outstanding students. We had already thought about the gifts, but then why did the fifth-grade students start to fail? ’

The small surprise card that was supposed to contain words of encouragement for students was not inappropriate at all when used as a Christmas gift, which made William feel relieved.

'The Hamster Party still has its benefits, I don't know when it will be used...'

After packing the last gift, William took a look and carefully stuffed the gift into the small bag with the invisible expansion spell - I'm afraid it would be possible for a student to see him carrying a bag of gifts out on Christmas Day. Ten years passed!

——

In Ravenclaw's tower, a group of students who had been cheating all night were in high spirits.

Because of tradition, Ravenclaw is the house that uses incense the most, because it has the function of helping people think - and last night, those refreshing spices never stopped.

"Oh my god, it's already half past six!"

Some students looked at the sky and found that there was some light. They couldn't help but look at the time, and then exclaimed.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you don't sleep. If you take a short rest, you will be more tired," an experienced senior introduced. "It's good to study for the exam. It's best not to eat breakfast. Eating will affect your thinking ability. "

"It makes sense, but we need to get some air and let the smell of incense go away, otherwise we might faint and not even know it later."

Another senior smiled and stood up before pushing open the window to let in some fresh air.

"What's over there!"

The classmate who opened the window exclaimed, and most of the others who had stayed up all night put down their books and gathered around the window.

After a while, someone ran out of the dormitory, "I bought the telescope from the World Cup. Make room for me and let me see what's going on!"

Soon, the person holding the telescope recognized the person walking steadily in the snow below - the professor they had talked about the most these days, Professor William, who generously gave out a portion of the elixir.

The telescope was quickly spread to everyone. After confirming who the person below was, everyone became curious. What was Professor William doing up so early on Christmas Day?

"Isn't it a means of arranging anti-cheating measures?"

Someone boldly suspected, "I heard that someone can disguise surveillance magic as a bird!"

"How can there be such magic! Why don't you guess that Professor William wants to bribe the owl?"

"Owls don't help spy on people!"

A group of students quarreled over this academic issue - whether owls can be used for surveillance has always been a hot topic in the wizarding world, and in Ravenclaw, there are far more quarrels due to different concepts than in other houses. The situation in the school is so …

——

'Ah,' William wiped his sweat and started to head to the auditorium - something he didn't want to see happened. When he returned to the office, the second batch of gifts arrived, and he had to go to the owl shed again. .

'It stands to reason that Bart must be quite willing to help, but I always feel that it is a bit embarrassing for the elf to know about this...'

William thought so while holding the thick test paper.

He didn't eat breakfast - although skipping breakfast is not good for the body, it is not too serious if it happens once in a while.

After all, he was going to invade the Slytherin lounge. He was too full to react and would be slow to react. If something unexpected happened, he might not be able to deal with it for a long time if he was slower.

‘I always thought that Christmas was not a very important holiday, but I just realized it today—it’s almost the New Year, right? ’

William regretted setting the exam for today. The exam on the first day of the new year was originally going to be hung up and framed, right?

‘Forget it, I’ve passed all the exams, and I’m even allowed to open the paper and cheat, so it’s just a New Year’s entertainment. ’

William packed up the papers and persuaded himself not to be too serious - if everyone thought this was a Christmas event, then the exam would not be an exam.

On the first day of the mobile game event, you still have to sign in and participate in activities, and you can also get free draws when you go online. Didn’t I take out all the elixirs in the prize pool?

Add some more prizes and it will be a New Year event!

Encouraging himself like this, William's mentality suddenly became calmer - don't cheat, there are really big prizes, and the activities are a lot of fun. If you put this plan in the game, players will worry about being fired. It's so conscientious. Who’s to say this is a thriving event?

'Snapped. ’

There was a soft sound, and William realized that an elf had appeared - not Bart, but someone he didn't recognize.

"Professor William, we have decorated the auditorium and added examination tables under the original Christmas decorations. The examination room has been prepared very well."

The elf said in a happy tone, "We decided after discussing it for a long time!"

"Thank you," William looked at the elf, "As usual, are you ready to decorate?"

"Of course, Professor, we do most of the holiday decorations. This time we added exams to make the Christmas atmosphere even better!"

…

In an incomprehensible conversation, William thanked the elf again and began to wonder why exams would make the Christmas atmosphere better...

The conversation didn't last long. The elf left in a hurry when William was about to enter the auditorium, leaving William's curiosity until the moment he opened the auditorium door.

——

‘Which devil arranged this scene? ’

After associating Christmas with New Year, William was stunned when he entered the door.

Today's auditorium looks particularly majestic - there are not only a dozen Christmas trees covered with silver frost, but also thick ribbons composed of mistletoe and holly crisscrossing on the ceiling, which look like Christmas-only decorations.

The enchanted snow falls gently from the ceiling, warm and dry, adding to the festive atmosphere.

But who can tell him why there are test papers mixed in the falling snow?

All kinds of papers fell with the snow. On a normal day, William even thought it could be used as a background for the fifth grade. But after receiving so many gifts and feeling the warmth of Christmas, he felt that it was too much to scare people with papers on this day. A little bit...

The students have arrived early, and Professor Lockhart is standing among the students in a green robe and is talking about something - if it weren't for the students around him, William would even think that Professor Lockhart is also a decorated Christmas tree...

"Good morning, classmates," William waved in greeting, and then looked at Professor Lockhart, "Good morning, Professor Lockhart."

"Good morning, Professor William." Lockhart's smile was brighter than usual, in stark contrast to the fairy-like students around him.

Didn't you sleep at all?

William suddenly felt more like the Chinese New Year - the warmth of Christmas deepened.

"Okay, the Christmas carnival begins!"

William took out a large bag of candies from his pocket, used his wand to control the candies to fly into the air, and then cast a spell to make the candies fall down together with the magic snowflakes.

"I've put the papers here. Professor Lockhart, could you please pass them out?"

Lockhart smiled and responded, "No problem."

"Then I wish you all a Merry Christmas, and let me tell you by the way," William stood up and walked out of the auditorium, waving to the students, "There will be rewards for the top ten, but they are far behind the first place. It's a holiday for everyone. joy!"

The job of handing out papers was left to Lockhart. The New Year atmosphere was too heavy and William didn't want to do it anymore.

'Let's go to Slytherin. The password is - well, long live Salazar. ’

William repeated the password he had obtained yesterday and began to walk towards his office - there was a secret passage nearby, which happened to lead to the Slytherin lounge.

——

"What did I say?"

In the venue, students took advantage of the last moment before papers were handed out to whisper to each other.

"Even if the owl doesn't know how to monitor, there must be other monitoring methods. Don't forget, Professor William can climb up any floor of Hogwarts Castle with a rope!"

The student carefully added his conspiracy theory, "We were given candy before the exam, but we didn't even have breakfast. If our reaction speed after eating candy slows down, our grades will be lower - don't forget what happened in fifth grade." It’s the same routine for the exam!”

The surrounding students nodded together.

Not far away from them, on the Gryffindor table, the twins were winking.

"How much did you make, Fred?"

They communicated with their eyes.

"I estimate it's seven or eight Galleons, it's like picking up money!"

"We're all preparing for exams, aren't the prices of those refreshing things soaring? You use owl to increase the price to get permission from those who have left school, and then sell them at a higher price. The store won't open at such a late hour - you can't be more genius! "

"I also made a lot of money on food. Although I didn't increase the price much, it's good business to get food from Hufflepuff and sell it."

The two of them laughed quite happily. Although they were a little sleepy, they still insisted on preparing to finish the exam - the goddess of luck had already favored them enough, but what if the goddess was so happy today that they ranked first?
