A group of people quickly ran out of the classroom, led by the Weasley twins, and ran all the way outside the castle to the lawn near the Quidditch pitch.
Scott looked back at Neville, wanting him to try a spell, but found that he was gasping for air.
It seems that we have to wait for him to rest for a while before talking.
Scott turned and walked over to Hermione.
Although the girl had an ugly face and red eyes, she also ran over.
“I’m sorry, Hermione,” Scott said. “It’s offensive considering the difficulty of explaining it in the circumstances.”
To be honest, his apology was not very sincere, and he just wanted to give this overly proud girl a step down.
“I know!”
Hermione’s expression was extremely aggrieved.
“I made the mistake of blaming you first.”
She said angrily.
Her way of holding back her anger and forcing herself to be reasonable made Scott laugh.
He glanced at Harry and Ron, who were snickering with their eyes raised, and he suppressed his laughter.
“It’s good that you’re not angry.” Scott said deliberately, “To be honest, there are not many reasonable girls like you.”
In fact, he could tell that Hermione was actually quite angry.
But she just endured it.
As soon as he said this, Hermione’s expression became even stranger.
It seemed that the suppressed anger had increased again.
“Of course.” Hermione took a deep breath.
She forced a half-hearted smile.
“I just hope you won’t do this next time. As long as you make it clear what you want to do, won’t I not listen? I’m very reasonable!”
The girl still couldn’t help but yell at Scott.
I don’t think so.
Scott thought.
You are quite a tough guy, Miss Granger.
Of course, on the surface he still smiled and agreed, “Yes, it’s my fault. I’ll be careful next time. I ask your forgiveness this time.”
“I didn’t blame you in the first place.” Hermione said pretending to be generous.
Scott gave her a thumbs up.
Behind Hermione, Harry and Ron also gave Scott a thumbs up.
After taking care of Hermione, Scott turned around and walked over to Neville again.
“Have you rested yet, Neville?” he asked.
Neville nodded nervously, “Okay.”
“Then give it a try.” Scott said, “Cast a random spell and see if you make any progress.”
Neville swallowed and nodded again, “Okay.”
He took out his wand and raised it.
“Get bigger quickly!”
He waved his wand and a beam of light struck the lawn.
The next second, the clump of grass grew crazily, becoming several times larger in the blink of an eye.
“Succeeded…”
Neville looked at the grass in disbelief.
“I succeeded!”
He turned to look at Harry and Ron again.
“Awesome! Neville!” Harry happily ran to the edge of the grass to have a look and said loudly, “This is the expansion spell I just learned this semester. You succeeded!”
“real!”
Neville also ran over quickly and reached out to touch the blade of grass that had grown several times larger.
“Very good!”
The next second, his eyes turned red and he couldn’t help but jump.
“Congratulations, Neville!”
Ron and Hermione also ran over, both looking happy for Neville.
“Thanks!”
Neville thanked his classmates, turned around, and bowed solemnly to Scott.
“Thank you, Scott.”
His face turned red with excitement and tears welled up in his eyes.
“I don’t know how to thank you.”
he said, wiping away tears.
“I will write to my grandmother and she will be grateful to you.”
Scott walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.
He said gently, “I should also thank you for letting me see more possibilities for wizards.”
“No……”
Neville shook his head repeatedly, but was too stupid to speak.
“Okay, okay, now tell us how you did it?” Eddie said impatiently, “I can’t wait any longer.”
“We’re curious too.”
Fred and George looked at Scott too.
“Okay…how to explain it?”
Scott touched his chin.
“Of course…it’s all because of magic!”
After saying this, he smiled, turned around and ran away.
“stop!”
“say clearly!”
Several others were stunned and immediately chased after him.
But Scott quickly rushed into the castle, and he quickly got rid of those people with the help of the Marauder’s Map that had not been returned to the twins.
In order not to be caught by those people, he ate the dinner alone in the kitchen that day.
It wasn’t until night that Eddie blocked him in the dormitory.
“There must be something fishy about this!”
Eddie stared at Scott.
“As long as you understand.” Scott said with a smile.
“Huh?” Eddie was stunned, “Really?”
“Of course.” Scott sat on the sofa, “Some things just won’t work if you say them.”
“oh……”
Eddie squinted.
The next second, he said with a playful smile: “As long as Neville doesn’t know, I can still listen.”
“You?” Scott glanced at him and shook his head. “A big mouth like you is really not suitable for keeping secrets.”
Eddie jumped in anger, “You are slandering! No one has a tighter mouth than me!”
“Okay, okay, I’ll tell you.”
Scott knew that although Eddie was usually a big mouth, he would not tell anyone about the things he was told to keep secret.
He said, “What I want to say is that my action itself only played half the role.”
“What do you mean?” Eddie didn’t understand.
Scott explained, “I cast a very mild psychedelic spell, combined with words, to let Neville open up his heart in his imagination. This is similar to the method of a Muggle psychiatrist.”
Eddie nodded.
“At the same time, I used my own magic fluctuations to guide Neville’s magic.” Scott continued, “While dispelling the haze in his heart, I guided his magic to become active along with my magic fluctuations.”
“I see.”
Eddie understood.
“This method can only be used by a guy like you who can sense magic fluctuations.”
He said with some envy.
“In fact, the effect is not that great.” Scott smiled, “I said that Neville’s problem is mainly psychological. Even without me, he may naturally get better as he grows up.”
“Then what’s the trick?” Eddie asked again.
Scott said, “The trick is… although this incident has made his magic power fluctuate more, it can’t immediately make him successfully cast the spell that he didn’t know before.”
“Is that so.”
Eddie immediately lost interest.
“The reason why he failed to cast the spell originally was probably due to psychological reasons.”
He had already guessed it.
“Your ‘treatment’ helped him build up confidence, which is why he succeeded in casting the spell.”
Scott nodded.
“Neville is a typical example of lack of confidence. But magic is the power of belief. When we cast a spell, we must be firm in both our inner beliefs and the movements of waving the wand.”
“Are you worried that he will think too much after knowing this, and then start to doubt himself and lose confidence again?”
Eddie looked at Scott.
“I didn’t expect you to be so kind.”
“Of course.” Scott said with a smile, “I am a good person who likes to help others.”
