The ordinary classroom door seems to separate two worlds.
On one side is a warm and peaceful school, and on the other side is a dark, unknown world with a bitter wind blowing through it now and then …
The students gazed slightly hesitantly at Professor Hap’s face, as if trying to read something, but Felix just looked at them with an encouraging gaze.
Penelope couldn’t help but take a gulp, that sound is quite clear, and Percy, who sat two seats away from her, asked, “Professor? There’s no danger, is there?”
“What? Oh, of course not … Why do you think so?” Felix looked at him with surprise as his eyes skimmed over the faces of the rest.
“… I see, don’t worry, well, I did add some interesting and mind-blowing surprises, but our class is still going to be ancient rune class, not Defense Against the Dark Arts.”
“Go ahead, I’ll be at the end of the room.”
One by one, the male and female wizards walked in, with Felix following behind and closing the classroom door.
“Bang!”
…
In this mysterious space, the light is very dim, which makes it impossible for them to judge the exact size of the space.
Some tiny sounds broke into their ears: the sound of the wind, crows, insects, and some rustling odd rhymes.
More than thirty students cowered together like quails, standing unsure of what to do, seemingly waiting for the professor’s instructions, with only seven or eight raising their wands and chanting Lumos, surveying their surroundings with the aid of the light of their magic.
Felix shook his head, and the next second his voice came from the ceiling above –
“Little wizards, you are now the staff of the Ministry of Magic a hundred and fifty years ago, adept at magic runes. The command you received is to examine the surrounding area, remove any danger and bring back any valuable manuscripts.”
“You should act like professionals, being cautious, but also never miss a trace, magic manuscripts don’t just swagger in front of you, there is no single carrier for knowledge. Believe me, there is much here for you to explore.”
“Now, take out your wands and, if necessary, take out the parchment and make a record. I will be watching you all the time.”
Then the voice disappeared.
After a short silence …
“Ahem!” Percy cleared his throat as he raised his wand to attract the attention of the rest of the group, “I think this is the professor’s test for us, and we should provide a satisfactory result, and as a grade head, I am willing to lead the group …”
“There’s more than one Head of the Grade here!” A Slytherin student chorused, and in the chaotic chatter, the students quickly divided themselves into four teams according to the house.
Twelve in Ravenclaw, seven in Gryffindor, five in Slytherin, and nine in Hufflepuff.
The three other houses had grade heads, so Hufflepuff selected a male wizard of some prestige, and they gathered around a rock to discuss exactly what to do.
“We should explore the boundaries of this place, it’s obvious that the professor has applied an Undetectable Extension Charm, this place can’t be this big.”
” If I may add, I think we should find the safe house that the professor was talking about and get the manuscript as soon as possible, I don’t want to stay here one second longer!”
“You want to split up?”
“No?”
“Guys, we’d better move together.”
…
Percy advocated exploring the surroundings first and making a clear division of labour and each doing their own job, while the Slytherin Head of the Grade objected, strongly urging them to find the safe house as fast as possible, “This is the key information provided by the professor!”
The other two houses heads, Penelope, supported Percy, while Hufflepuff suggested that everyone should act together.
Ten minutes passed quietly.
But opinions were never unified, and finally, everyone decided that it would be better to act as a group by houses, and leave one person behind to release a red spark towards the sky every ten breaths, and so on ten times before releasing a green spark, and everyone who saw it quickly returns to share their respective intelligence.
Gryffindor and Ravenclaw went together, and to keep the balance in numbers, Slytherin and Hufflepuff moved together.
“Everyone, chant with me: Lumos!” Percy said.
A light illuminated in the darkness and not far from a similarly bright light that lit up like stars, both sides felt slightly reassured.
They chose a random direction, sullenly moving forward, and they were still cautiously moving at a steady pace, but now and then a crow flew up around them, making a ” gah~ gah~” sound, making them feel a little hairy.
They can’t help but speed up their pace.
Percy with a little trembling voice asked: “We are still students, certainly will not encounter anything extraordinarily dangerous, at most some small traps or something …”
Penelope’s calm voice remarked, “We’re just having a special practical class, which won’t take more than two hours maximum.”
The mood of the male and female wizards relaxed slightly.
“Wait! What’s that over there?” Quidditch Captain Wood asked, pointing up ahead.
“Is that a mound of rocks?” Percy squinted his eyes to look further ahead.
“No, it’s, it’s a tombstone!” Wood’s words trailed off.
In the shadows, rows of tombstones that were even darker than the night stood tall.
After a brief panic, they pushed out five people, to go over and take a look.
“Don’t worry, there’s no danger,” Percy said in a very unconvincing tone.
The group of five carefully explored toward the cluster of gravestones, their feet trod on the loose dirt, occasionally making the sound of snapping branches, and in the silence, Percy suddenly blurted out, “Penelope, you should have stayed behind.”
“I’m the Head Girl!” Penelope retorted.
“But …”
“Oh, come on, you two,” the lanky Wood snapped back, “you have to pick your time to have a lovers’ quarrel, and we’re in the middle of something.”
“Who, who, said we are a couple?” The two stared at him with jaws agape.
“I’m not dumb …,” Wood muttered.
Percy and Penelope instantly quieted down, and even the sudden sound of frogs didn’t seem so intimidating.
In a slightly awkward atmosphere, they walked into this cluster of tombstones.
“Look here!” Wood pointed to a tombstone and said, ” There is some rune on it that seems to say–” His voice trembled.
“What is it?” Percy held up his wand and looked over.
“… I, we’re waiting for you here …,” Wood swallowed.
” Gulp!”
Right at that moment, they heard a strange noise, and something poked out of the dirt in front of the tombstone where Wood stood by.
Percy’s eyes widened, it IS A HAND!
“Run, Wood!” He raised his hand to make a smashing spell.
Wood jumped swiftly out of the way with a crunching sound behind him, and when he looked back, a white bone arm scattered into pieces.
“Ahhhhh!” Penelope let out a shriek as something grabbed her ankle and she struggled to break free, a ghastly white hand dangling around her ankle.
“Penelope!”
Percy shouted, and then dumbfounded to see, Penelope ran away a few steps, gritted her teeth, and released a series of “Eradication Spell”, “Incendio” in a direction, the intense light illuminated a corner of the tombstone cluster, under the effect of the magic spell, the ground exploded with a big crater.
After almost thirty seconds –
A group of people came panting, looking at the scene in confusion: Percy and Penelope kissing, the other two wizards looking away awkwardly, and Wood kicking a skeleton with a disgusted face further away with an arm missing.
The skeleton also looked strange, about half a man high, short limbs, but the head is particularly large, nearly occupying half of the body.
The big-headed skeleton’s mouth is grinning exaggeratedly, anthropomorphically emitting a “woo-woo-woo-woo~” sound, clumsily trying to get up from the ground.
