Chapter 275 The Most Special Class At Hogwarts

Among the magical subjects at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the History of Magic class is undoubtedly the most extraordinary.

Professor Cuthbert Binns, in charge of teaching the subject, is the only ghost teacher in the whole of Europe and the longest-serving professor in the history of the magical world. It's no surprise that he covers the entire history of Hogwarts.

The History of Magic classroom is located on the second floor of the castle. Unlike other classrooms, it only has a chalkboard. The most remarkable thing about Professor Binns' class is that he enters the room through the chalkboard, although this peculiarity only happens in the first class.

It is said that when Binns stood up to teach on the last day of his life, he accidentally left his body in an armchair in front of the fireplace in the staff room. But this minor inconvenience did not hinder his path to the classroom. Many claimed that he didn't even realize his death. Others said that he wanted to continue his beloved teaching career forever.

Regardless, since then, all his daily activities have remained unchanged, without any alteration.

As a result, the vast majority of students respect this class, despite it being the most boring of all, even if Professor Binns' teaching method is always with a voice devoid of emotion when addressing the topic, as if his voice were a whisper from a vacuum cleaner...

But there is no doubt that Professor Binns could be considered the best in the subject of History of Magic; there is no one like him.

As a member of the faculty personally invited by Salazar Slytherin, Professor Binns was very old when he founded the school at Hogwarts, and his ghostly and translucent form is a clear indication of the toll on his body.

This means that Professor Cuthbert Binns is also a member of the sequence of ancient wizards, and the history he has witnessed is even older than that of the four founders.

Few people have considered how incredible it is for a great ghost to exist for more than a thousand years and continue to learn; Professor Binns' teaching scope spans from ancient times to modern times. Throughout the history of magic, the textbooks for this course are updated more rapidly than those of any other course at Hogwarts.

For example, the textbook "History of Magic" used by first-year students, whose author, Bashida Bashat, is still alive, and this is one of the few textbooks written by a wizard from Hogwarts.

The person who wrote the history book is still alive, but the person who taught the history class is deceased. This world is truly wondrous.

And the most astonishing part is not just this.

...

After dinner, before the three Elenas left the auditorium, "Otto Apocalis" appeared in front of Elena.

"Miss Caslana, here's a package for you."

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows with a look like a gift from Santa Claus and said, pulling out a heavy package wrapped in parchment paper from behind and placing it solemnly in front of Elena.

"Miss Bahida Bashat said she hopes this will play a certain role in your further study of the history of magic."

Then, without waiting for Elena's reaction, the elderly man waved his hand and left the auditorium entrance in a very graceful manner.

As for the contents of the package...

As Elena descended the stairs, she lowered her head to look at the "Historical History of Magic and Collector's Edition in Hardcover" she held against her chest, and glanced at the stern Hermione beside her. But she complained a little that the previous "History of Magic" had accidentally torn out some pages by her. Who could have thought that Grindelwald would specifically write to Bahida Bashat.

"It's great, Miss Bahida Bashat delivered the book in person..."

After looking at the elaborate large book in Elena's hands, and then looking at her own "History of Magic," Hermione seemed to have swallowed five or six lemons in one go, and envy and jealousy almost condensed into substance.

There is no harm without comparison.

Compared to the "History of Magic" sold by the Lizhen Bookstore, Elena's "History of Magic · Collector's Edition in Hardcover" has achieved comprehensive refinement in terms of content richness and typography. Not to mention the prestige, there is also the metaphysical stimulus of the original author's blessing.

"In reality, when you arrive in the classroom, you will discover that willpower is what is truly useful in the potions class."

Elena shrugged helplessly, looked at Hermione, who was about to turn into essence of lemon, and said softly.

"It's alright, it's just a slightly better packaged and looking book. If it were Hermione, it doesn't matter if you gave her the entire library of Hogwarts."

"Well, here's nonsense again, as if Hogwarts were yours."

Hermione wrinkled her nose slightly, huffed softly, and glared at Elena angrily.

Although she didn't quite understand what Elena was referring to as "willpower", the expression on Hermione's face instantly improved. She looked hesitantly at the exquisite "History of Magic · Collector's Edition Hardcover" and said.

"You don't need to gift me the book, after all, it's a gift from Miss Bahida Bashat, you should treasure it. Then lend it to me to see what difference it has with the common "Potion Book"."

"No problem." Elena nodded eagerly.

Indeed, throughout Hogwarts, except for Hermione, you may never find another person interested in "History of Magic", even in the "History of Magic · Collector's Edition Hardcover".

At times, Elena wonders if Little Beaver suffers from mild amnesia and reading addiction ~ ~ However, Hermione's slight excitement reminded Elena of something.

For her, how to address Mrs. Bahida Bashat later is truly a headache.

After all, in terms of kinship, Bahida Bashat is also Gellert Grindelwald's aunt, and from the current situation, Grindelwald is temporarily her grandfather.

The father's father is called grandfather, the father's mother is called grandmother, the father's brother is called uncle, and the father's sister is called aunt...

Then comes the question, what is the uncle's aunt called?

This topic seems to go beyond the scheme!

Hmm, should I consider this question as the first one to ask Professor Binns? The complex relationship between people and their ties has always been the favorite part of the Turing test.

Indeed, on the way to the classroom, Elena has silently prepared dozens of strange questions, of course, all carefully crafted to ensure they have a slight connection to the history of magic.

Elena's hair swayed, and her delicate face seemed to glow with a holy and gentle light.

In the years since the founding of Hogwarts, there aren't many people who ask questions in the history of magic class. Won't Professor Binns feel lonely in such a quiet class?
