The Christmas holiday was short, but everything that happened during this period was enough to shake the entire magic world.
What the students at Hogwarts didn't expect the most was that Lucas, who was also a student, had turned into the White Devil King!
Thinking of their relaxed time playing during the holidays and comparing themselves with Lucas who could already fight the Dark Lord, many students felt a burst of depression in their hearts.
"Wait, aren't you curious? Why can Grindelwald use magic outside of school?"
As soon as the person finished speaking, he saw everyone staring at him like he was a fool.
All right, he admitted that it was a silly question to ask.
By this time Filch had come down the wooden ladder, so everyone's attention then shifted to the new education decree.
"From today onwards, all Hogwarts students will be required to undergo a monthly assessment every month, and halfway through the semester, a mid-term assessment will be required."
That short sentence caused despair in the hearts of many students.
"Exams every month? Merlin's beard, how could Headmaster Dumbledore agree to let this woman come to the school as a professor?"
"The thought of my parents being able to see my grades once a month, Merlin, this is a nightmare."
The students in front of the great hall were all sad and a lot of people were cursing Umbridge under their breath.
Although the toad has only been here for a few short months, she has already made all the students of Hogwarts hate her.
Especially the dozens of educational decrees issued one after another which made a lot of students abhor her from the bottom of their hearts.
Because of Umbridge the four Houses were unexpectedly united like never before.
There is a kind of atmosphere in the school, as long as you scold Umbridge together, you are good friends.
Lucas who just arrived saw a lifeless picture.
Seeing everyone lowering their heads listlessly, he looked curiously at the new education decree on the wall.
What exactly is written on it that can actually make a group of people become like this?
Lucas raised his eyebrows when he saw familiar words such as monthly exam and midterm exam.
Could it be that Umbridge went to the muggles for training?
He is too familiar with this format.
Thinking of the days when he was struggling between books and examination papers, he almost felt a tear fall from his eye.
"Mr Grindelwald, I happen to have something to talk to you about."
Umbridge happened to come out of the great hall at this time and her eyes lit up when she saw Lucas.
The Toad's eyes made Lucas feel very uncomfortable.
She was looking at him as if she had just found her prey.
"Professor, what can I do for you? I'm very busy!"
"Mr Grindelwald, if you have time, please come to my office. I have some questions about education that I would like to discuss with you."
Something is wrong.
Lucas frowned slightly, the toad must be planning something bad if she's being so enthusiastic suddenly.
"Well, I will definitely go to you when I have time." Lucas said arrogantly.
His tone seemed to regard the other party as his subordinate.
But even so, Umbridge still didn't change her expression, at most the smile in her eyes was slightly reduced.
This affirmed Lucas's thoughts even more.
Voldemort must have given her a task. Otherwise, with the character of this toad, it would be impossible to act like this at all.
"Well, I'll be waiting for you in the office."
Umbridge walked towards her office after speaking.
…
Slytherin common room.
Lucas closed the door to his dorm and gave the system the order to start the platinum lottery, then a prize pool shining with platinum light appeared in front of him.
The platinum light illuminated the room.
Soon a ray of light flew out of the prize pool and came straight to Lucas.
[Ding, this platinum lottery draw is over, congratulations to the host for getting: Talent Evolution Scroll*1.]
When he first heard the system prompt, he thought it was another talent breakthrough scroll.
But after careful inspection, he discovered that although the names of the two scrolls were similar, the effect is completely different.
The talent breakthrough scroll that was drawn before was used to break through the upper limit of Lucas' talents in various disciplines.
And this talent evolution scroll is specially used to evolve his unique talents.
For example, void fissure, or the eye of foresight.
"I didn't expect there to be such a good thing."
Lucas opened his attribute list and glanced at the talent column.
The three talents of Void Fissure, Void Aura, and Void Strengthening do not need to evolve.
Fissure is usually used for long-distance travel, and an evolution is meaningless.
Besides, he now has time magic, which will be more convenient in battle.
As for the void aura and void strengthening, both are passive talents. With Lucas's current strength, even if they are evolved, the improvement will not be much, so he looked at the remaining talents.
Eye of Medusa (weakened version) If Lucas guessed correctly, he will get the full version of Eye of Medusa after evolution.
But what's the use of that? There is actually no difference between petrification and direct killing for him.
So the Eye of Medusa is a pass.
The combination skills talent is good enough for now, so it is not considered.
In the end, only the two talents of Obscurus and Eye of Foresight are left.
And if he must choose, he will definitely choose the Eye of Foresight.
The ability to predict the future is simply too tempting.
Lucas also wants to see what the eyes that can already predict the future will look like when they evolve again.
"System, use Talent Evolution Scroll on the Eye of Foresight."
[The Eye of Foresight is being evolved... Estimated evolution result: unknown!]
The evolution process took longer than imagined.
Lucas closed his eyes tightly, feeling a cool air brushing his eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, the system prompt finally sounded in his ears.
[Ding, the evolution is complete, congratulations to the host for obtaining: Eye of Time.]
Lucas opened his eyes suddenly, and his pupils turned completely golden.
If you look carefully, you will find it.
There seemed to be a golden river in his pupils that was flowing.
Lucas' gaze slowly scanned every corner of the room.
From the moment he obtained the Eye of Time, time seemed to be running backwards.
Everything that happened in the room appeared in his eyes. He even saw a picture of himself fooling Draco with a black leather diary in his second year.
Immediately afterwards, the screen began to advance rapidly.
Dumbledore, Harry Potter, and even Umbridge began to appear in his pupils.
At this moment, Lucas's face was cold, as if he had lost all his emotions.
This description may not be correct. It should be said that Lucas seems to have something akin to divinity at this moment.
It seems indifferent and ruthless, but the aura it exudes makes people feel comfortable like a spring breeze.
"I see!"
The golden light in his eyes dissipated, and the divine aura around Lucas also disappeared without a trace.
The eye of time, see through the past and the future.
This talent evolution scroll is really amazing, it is obviously only a platinum reward, but it brought Lucas a powerful talent that even diamond rewards may not be able to get.
The Eye of Time seems to have a single ability, but it allows Lucas, who likes to plan three steps ahead, to see a hundred steps in the future.
This ability to predict everything in advance is the real trump card.
He glanced at the clock on the desk, and suddenly stood up from the bed.
"I know, I'm going now!"
Fawkes in the firelight froze for a moment.
Seeing that Lucas had walked out of the room, he had no choice but to use his ability to return to the headmaster's office.
...
Looking at Lucas who came straight up the stairs, Dumbledore said with some surprise: "You are..."
"Fizzing Whizzbees, you just changed the password before Christmas." Lucas answered the old man's question first."
"That's right..."
"I just got a little bit of power, so see."
Lucas was the first to answer again, confirming exactly what Dumbledore had in mind.
He was surprised but also a little happy.
So it seems that Lucas's prediction ability is a little more reliable than Professor Trelawney's.
"You're wrong, my ability is also limited, and I can't make long-term predictions like Professor Trelawney."
Of course Lucas is talking nonsense.
It's just that the Eye of Time is too shocking, so it's better not to let others know.
A look of disappointment flashed in Dumbledore's eyes, but soon he thought about it, after all, not everyone can have the power of the third eye.
As far as he knows, wizards with the ability to predict the future are extremely rare.
Dumbledore cleared his throat and said, "Then you should already know why I asked you to come."
"Yes, the next project can start, and I think it is necessary to give Mr Potter some sense of participation this time."
"Harry? But his Occlumency..."
Before he finished speaking, Lucas interrupted: "Just as I said this, Mr Potter has already been approved by Professor Snape."
"Professor Snape thinks he has mastered some basics in Occlumency. It can be seen that Mr Potter has worked hard during this time and is very talented in Defense Against the Dark Arts."
Dumbledore was silent for a few minutes before saying, "Did you see that?"
"That's right, it's just that it's a little different from what we had originally planned, and we're going to have to make some small adjustments to make it easier for Tom to believe."
"In that case, let's follow your arrangement." Dumbledore said with a long breath.
Lucas stood up and smiled lightly: "Then I won't disturb your conversation with Mr Potter, and I think you need this now."
As he spoke, he handed Dumbledore a box of Lemon Sherbets.
Watching the back of Lucas leaving, Dumbledore ate a candy and said, "What a horrible and annoying ability."
…
Hogwarts dungeons.
Harry happily walked upstairs.
Just now, that nasty Snape finally recognized his efforts.
"I must have a good celebration with Ron when I go back."
As soon as Harry made a decision, he saw Lucas in front.
The two nodded lightly and just as they passed by, Lucas suddenly stopped.
"Mr Potter, when you go up the stairs, remember to step with your left foot first."
Seeing Lucas who turned and left after speaking, Harry looked puzzled.
It wasn't until he slipped and almost fell down the stairs because he stepped up the stairs with his right foot first that he understood what Lucas said just now.
"That wanker, it was actually a prank, I haven't provoked you recently, Lucas!"
Harry had just finished complaining when Fawkes flew from the sky.
Without waiting for Harry to say hello, the phoenix grabbed his shoulders and disappeared from the place in flames.
When Harry regained consciousness, he had already appeared in the headmaster's office.
"Harry, Severus said that your Occlumency learning speed is fast, so it's time to let you know something."
Harry didn't suspect that there was anything wrong.
Instead, because of Dumbledore's words, he was filled with joy.
Not to mention noticing any abnormality, now he couldn't even listen to Dumbledore's words.
