Felix waved his wand to beckon a few plates of small treats, " Have a seat first, then we can talk."
He casually took a chocolate chip cookie and stuffed it into his mouth, as the taste of chocolate lifted his spirits.
Hermione looked at him a little strangely, the professor did not eat?
"How was your summer holiday?" Felix picked up another cookie.
"It was great, we went to France as a family and I saw a lot of interesting things about magic and put them all in my history of magic paper." Hermione gleefully described her summer experience.
Felix nodded approvingly now and then, and soon the two plates of snacks were emptied, and he nudged the table with his wand, and the little plates were immediately refilled.
"Professor, you didn't eat dinner?"
"Uh ... yeah, you try it too, it tastes pretty good."
Felix ate until he became 70% full, and paused to slowly make himself a cup of tea. "I saw the postcard you sent, and in fact, I went to France for the holidays."
"Really?" The little witch blinked as she asked with interest, "Was it for a trip too?"
"For official business, I went to Paris for a few days, and something happened in between ..." Felix briefly told about his experience, and then asked, "I suppose you practiced your runes during the holidays, right? "
"Of course!" Hermione does not want the professor to think that she spent the whole holiday playing around, she hurriedly said like a series of bullets: "I put everything in a small beaded purse and carried it around with me, rune carving knife, chestnut wood, and my holiday homework ..."
"I'll show it to you." She pulled out a small pouch from her wizard's robe, and when her wand tapped on it, sheets of chestnut wood flew out, which soon stacked up in a tall pile.
These chestnut wood sheets are modified from chestnut wood, and they look very much like parchment except for the difference in colour.
Felix picked up the top one, which probably represents the highest level of the little witch, he looked at the dense magic runes on it.
Hermione said: "A third of them are used to practice individual runes, and the rest are used to practice rune circuits, as you told me before. However, I have only mastered the circuit used on the beaded pouch so far."
"You really break my expectations about you from time to time again." Felix did not mince words in praise.
He led Hermione to the workbench, "Open my eyes, Miss Granger."
Hermione's expression became sober while sitting in the chair, lifting the chestnut wood carving knife that belonged to her, quickly outlining a magic rune, after a summer break, her hand has been very steady, the magic operation become more and more smooth, no trace of the last year's dull and sluggishness there.
Then, one by one, the magic runes were outlined, and the whole process is like flowing water, with a hint of ethereal beauty.
Felix stared at the tip of the rune carving knife, watching it pouring out a spiritual red aura, like a dancing fairy, he subconsciously remembered the experience of discussing the zooming charm with Filius during the day.
Magic balance.
As well as the aura he now saw ...
He gently curled his fingers, and a rune appeared in the air.
Hermione wrote down seventeen magic runes in one breath, the most difficult set of rune circuits she had ever mastered, 'The next step is to thread them through one by one, you can do it!' She cheered herself up.
Then she drew the magic lines from the magic rune more carefully, connecting and tying the individual magic runes together, so carefully that she completely ignored her perception of the outside world.
Felix also followed Hermione's steps, one by one magic rune in the air automatically connected together, to complete the construction of the entire circuit faster than the little witch.
Fortunately, he connected the circuit from beginning to end, forming a circle.
''This kind of feels like the pattern on the Pensieve!''
Felix suddenly had an epiphany, he looked at the circle in his hand, broke it back up into individual magic runes, and then reconnected them together again.
The magic power flowed through the circle like water waves, and the movement contained the ultimate beauty. At this moment, a thought popped into his head, and he wanted to try to recover the complete zooming charm.
Not the pieced-together version that Filius, and he had studied, but the real ancient magic.
He had long spent a lot of time on this magic, plus today he got inspired twice in succession - Filius's magic balance theory and the feeling of the spirituality of magic brought to him by Granger.
'Perhaps today there is hope for success?'
More runes appeared, Felix first showed the magic runes in the zooming charm, and a skeleton sphere made of magic rune took shape a little ...
On the other hand, Hermione breathed a long sigh of relief, 'successfully completed the first group of magic rune circuit.' She looked at her work with satisfaction, and she could hardly pick out any mistakes - at least from her point of view.
'Carve out the rest of them as well, and surprise the professor.' The young witch thought to herself, and as she was doing so, she suddenly noticed a small, bouncing object standing on the edge of the chestnut wood sheet - something she is no stranger to, having seen it too many times in the Thinking Room.
It's definitely a magic rune!
Hermione looked back hesitantly, "Professor ..." but her eyes widened as if she had seen the unimaginable.
"The professor has moved the thinking room into reality?!"
In Hermione's eyes, Professor Hap holding a complex skeletal sphere, surrounded by hundreds of magic runes of different colours, and there are new magic runes that are constantly emerging, which have spread over half of the room.
She stared at the skeletal sphere, a small part of which is missing, like some kind of artwork with fragmented beauty, she had seen similar exhibits in art exhibitions.
But Professor Hap clearly does not recognize this 'fragmented beauty', he is trying to restore the sphere, runes were beckoned by him, in the edge of the sphere, occasionally one or two runes were attracted and connected to the sphere.
Only at this moment, Hermione realized that the sphere is actually built with magic runes.
She looked confused for a while, magic runes, rune circuits, and then what is it, rune ball?
Despite her confusion, she slowed down her actions, and even her breathing became inaudible.
One of the greatest benefits of being a little assistant for an ancient rune class is that she could always passively refresh her knowledge of magic runes, expanding them to completely new boundaries over and over again.
Felix now simply felt like he slipped into a magical state where he could rely on his intuition to eliminate some choices and pick out the right magic rune.
He is trying to complete the missing parts and so far it is going well, the only thing he needs to worry about is that this ancient magic may have magic runes he has yet to master ...
The sphere became more complete, and Felix's confidence grew, he had a strong feeling that tonight he would succeed.
Time passed, the surface of the skeletal sphere began to jump with wisps of golden arcs, which seemed to symbolize that he is just a tiny bit away from success, it seems, just short of a magic rune.
But another five minutes passed, and Felix broke out in a cold sweat, "My God, it can't be this close, huh?
Just one magic rune away?
One by one, the stray magic runes lined up and kept flying past him, and the air in the office is torn with a hurling sound.
''Not this one, not this one either ...''
He forced himself to calm down, even if he failed this time, it didn't matter, he had got damn close to success, hadn't he?
In his relaxed state, a sudden disruptive thought struck him.
'Why don't I deduce that only remaining magic rune, based on the existing vacancy?'
His gaze fixed deadly on the only gap in the skeletal sphere.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and he had even analyzed, some characteristics of the unknown magic rune.
With a thought, he became calmer and calmer, his pulsing magic power calmed down, and he put most of his consciousness in the thinking room, constantly trying to construct the magic rune he envisioned.
Soon, the first attempt began, and a fragmented rune emerged in the air, just half outlined, and disappeared in thin air.
Error ... again!
The thinking room can only be imaginary, not tangible. But at this moment he used the thinking room to speed up his thinking, trying his best to buy time.
Unknowingly, he broke the speed of the thinking room, soaring from three times, four times, all the way up.
Predictably, he would not be comfortable in the next few days ...
From Hermione's point of view, the construction of the skeletal sphere seemed to be stuck in the last step, and Professor Hap began to keep sketching a mysterious rune in the air, each time its shape changed slightly.
Terrifying speculation surfaced in her mind, Professor Hap is creating his own magic rune?
What a feat this is!
She really isn't in the thinking room?
Half an hour passed, and after countless failures, a radiant golden magic rune had been outlined, and as soon as it appeared, it had been attracted to the skeletal sphere and merged with it.
From the gaps between the skeletal sphere erupted a dazzling golden light, accompanied by a "snort" sound like melting metal, the gaps closed little by little, until forming a complete skeletal sphere.
Felix held a skeletal sphere in his hand, bathed in golden light, this moment, all the pressure disappeared, he felt the best pleasure he had ever felt as if the body and mind were completely washed over.
Hermione looked dumbfounded at the scene in front of her, she suddenly remembered when she was a child reading the Encyclopedia Britannica, she saw a great list of names, the book used a variety of beautiful words to describe them: genius, great man, hero, legend ...
At that time she was still a child, struggled to hold the book which exaggerated in size, and asked her father: "Dad, what is a legend?"
Her father softly said, "Probably those who transcend the times and are born only once in a thousand years."
"They're smart? Or had a power?"
"I think it's more than that. History is never short of smart people, or people who have grasped power."
"And what exactly is that?"
"I honestly have no idea, dear, but I think it must have been at least someone who made it all the way to the top with the approval and blessing of countless people."
...
She didn't know why she suddenly thought of this little thing, but the thought grew like a seed breaking through the soil, quickly growing wildly in her mind until it grew into a gigantic tree -
'If a legend will be born in this era, it must be Professor Hap, right?'
