Harry Potter’s Natural Villain

"Practice brings true knowledge, and the demonstration ends here! Now I come among you and divide you into two groups. Professor Snape, if you are willing to help me..." Lockhart began to organize a duel among the students.

Snape leaned over with a murderous look on his face. He was so powerful that many students still leaned back unconsciously when they saw his appearance. Lockhart could beat him, but it didn't mean that he could do it. Neither are stupid.

Seamus and Justin made a pair, Harry and Ron tried to get closer to Lockhart, but Snape walked up to them first. "The dream team should be broken up, I think," he sneered. Said, "Weasley, you can pair with Finnigan. Potter—" He seemed to want to take out his defeat on them.

"Draco, I think the Savior would be a good match for you. Let's see what kind of person you can make the famous Potter. As for you, Miss Granger." Snape looked down. to Hermione.

"Just pair with Pansy." Snape found a Slytherin student nearby.

Hermione let out a sigh of relief, so that she would have a chance to approach Pansy. She also took a few steps in that direction just now, but she did not expect to succeed.

"Face your partner!" Lockhart yelled back on stage, "Bow!"

The two walked slowly onto the stage. Harry was extremely nervous. He still remembered the horror of Ron in Hagrid's cabin.

"Raise your wand and get ready!" Lockhart exclaimed. "When I count to three, I'll cast a spell to disarm—just disarm—we don't want an accident. one two Three--"

The two raised their weapons over their shoulders, and when they counted to three, the two turned around, not knowing if it was because of nervousness or what, Harry shot first, he raised his wand and pointed it at Malfoy: "Except your weapon!"

A thin red light was lasing out. Compared with Snape's, the color was much darker and the speed was slower.

The spell was deflected by Malfoy's Iron Armor without a doubt.

"The python is haunted!" Malfoy raised his wand and moved quickly, and then the tip of the wand didn't emit anything.

"I said, just disarm!" Lockhart looked at Malfoy with some dissatisfaction, but Malfoy smiled and said, "This magic is safer than the Disarming Charm."

"How is that possible!" Ron said angrily in the audience, "You should deduct points for breaking the rules."

"Snakes mentioned in the spell?" Hermione's heart skipped a beat, these days all the students were getting nervous about that basilisk that might or might not exist. There was also a murmur in the audience, and everyone heard the incantation about the snake.

Harry was watching intently, only to find that Malfoy's wand didn't respond after he chanted, but he wouldn't underestimate his opponent, he didn't believe Malfoy would make such a low-level mistake.

Soon Harry heard the exclamations from the audience. He buried his head and saw a python wrapped around his waist, hissing and spitting out letters, his green eyes staring straight at him, moving towards his upper body. Circling up. Except for the fear in the first moment, after that, Harry unexpectedly wanted to communicate with this snake. He felt that the snake could understand what he said.

"Can you let me go?" Harry asked, staring at the snake.

No effect at all.

"Hermione, what's wrong with Harry?" Ron asked involuntarily. "Harry talking to the rope?"

"I don't know." Hermione shook her head, puzzled by that, and she couldn't understand what Harry was saying.

The students off the field only saw that the corner of Harry's robe began to disintegrate into a thread and then reassembled into a rope, which was tightly wrapped around Harry's body, as if to restrict his movement, and Harry was spitting out syllables they didn't understand either.

"He's talking to that rope?" a Ravenclaw student asked.

"Or another spell to break the spell?"

Harry desperately searched for the words he knew, and ordered the snake he saw. He didn't know how he could pronounce those strange syllables, but his intuition told him that the snake could understand, but the reality was different. It gave him a ruthless blow, and the snake's head was wrapped around his neck. It was opening its bloody mouth, exposing its fangs, and attacking his neck fiercely.

And the students saw the rope wrapped around Harry's neck.

"Draco, it's over, it's over," Snape said, interrupting the duel.

"Of course, Professor." Malfoy had closed his eyes just now, as if he was confident in his spell, standing motionless across from Harry as if he was lost in thought. "Stop the curse!" He suddenly pointed his wand at Harry.

Harry saw the snake slowly withdraw from him, then disappear in the blink of an eye, as if it had never been there.

The students in the audience felt that the duel was boring. It was far less exciting than a duel between teachers.

It was Lockhart who spoke up: "It's a wonderful spell. It reminds me of an old oriental adage, without a fight... and what's going on?"

"Fight without fighting," added a black-haired girl in the audience.

"That's right, that's the sentence. You all know that my ideal is world peace. This spell is really good for my appetite. Slytheringa is ten points!" Lockhart raised his wand and said happily. .

Harry was still staring blankly at the opposite side, even though his opponent had already ended, he hadn't come back to his senses, and now he was confused and didn't know what was going on until he heard Hermione and Ron shouting, He just came back to his senses, he was going to give the position to the next group of opponents.

He walked off the stage numbly, the figure of the snake still appeared in his mind.

"Oh, Harry, what are you in a daze, you can pull the rope away with your hands." Ron couldn't help complaining, because he thought it was too strange for Harry to lose.

"Rope?" Harry looked at Ron in surprise.

"Did you see anything else?" Hermione asked, her gut telling her that the magic wasn't that simple.

"I only saw one snake," Harry said slowly.

"It's obviously a rope, everyone saw it." Ron looked at Harry in disbelief, but he believed that Harry couldn't lie, so he couldn't understand it.

"It should be that he combined several magics, and while giving people hallucinations, he disassembled and combined his robes." Hermione explained her reasoning.

"Well, then there's no way." Ron sighed, thinking that if he saw a spider during a duel, he wouldn't be any better than Harry, for most people , snakes should all be feared creatures.
