Have something to do? Ryan and the other little wizards looked clueless. But they still sat on the long table according to their seniority as per the professor's instructions and looked at the professor afterward.
Professor Sprout waved her magic wand, and a paper and a quill appeared in front of everyone. "Before the teachers have told you that you need to learn a little bit of Spanish by yourself, so let's take a test to see your self-study results."
Alas, Ryan has been busy studying magic these days and had no time to learn this language. But luckily, Spanish was included in the language memory implant that he had received in Fallout World before.
Naturally, Ryan, who was an expert, successfully won first place in the language test. After finishing the test papers, Professor Sprout used her magic wand to command a blackboard floating in the air from behind, preparing to make up lessons for everyone.
Ryan would have to not only master classes at the new school, but he's is also going to self-study this year's Hogwarts textbook thus he would be very busy this year, he did not expect In addition to these there are additional things to learn.
For example, on the train, they need to learn etiquette and common herbs used in the Amazon, and they also need to understand some attack magic unique to South America.
Attack magic? Isn't this an academic exchange? If the etiquette is to avoid being rude when communicating, and Castelobruxo is good at things related to magical plants, it is also useful to know the other's specialty in advance. So what happened to this attack magic in the end? Why does it sound like we're going to Venezuela instead?
Seeing everyone's puzzlement, Professor Silvanus Kettleburn tapped his wooden leg with the magic wand and said: "You are all top students in your respective years in your respective house, so there are some things you need to know. In the world of wizards, strength is absolute. Our headmaster, Dumbledore, as the most powerful white wizard is one of the main reasons that made our school stand out from the crowd in these decades.
So it is inevitable that some of the students there will challenge you to see how's it like to study under the strongest wizard. Therefore, I will try my best to teach you some self-protection methods on the road. Finally, I know that there are some disagreements between your houses in the school, but I hope you can maintain unity during this event." It was then that Ryan realized that the Silvanus Kettleburn in front of him was also known for his brutish behavior. He had received a record 62 warnings during his teaching period.
And he, like Hagrid, has a soft spot for dangerous and magical creatures, and he often makes things out of it. This year he successfully retired with only half of his leg and one arm. If it wasn't for this exchange to be more important, Dumbledore would have said his farewell to this guy. It is estimated that he has been in close contact with the dangerous big guys in the Romanian Fire Dragon Reserve.
But this can also explain from another aspect, even if he is scarred. But he was able to survive decades of dealing with dangerous and magical creatures is likely the proof of him being as capable as many elite Aurors. In this case, sending him out as another leader teacher can well show that this exchange activity may not be so peaceful.
After the first class, they ate their meal hastily. The taste of the meal is not comparable to that in school, but it is also much better than the box lunch that Ryan ate on the train in his previous life. For a simple meal on the road, this is already good enough, far better than eating instant noodles. Professor Sprout went to the front of the car to question the driver after the meal, and then told the little wizards that everyone would arrive at Castelobruxo in the evening tomorrow.
Since this journey was not long, the two professors tried their best, hoping to put more knowledge into the students' minds. So at the end of the course at 9:30 in the evening, an extremely tired expression appeared on every student's face.
After the course, the two professors opened the door and went to their own rooms. At this time, a sixth-year Slytherin girl stood up, and you can tell that she was a prefect by looking at the badge on her robe.
Ryan saw her come towards him and then facing all of the students she said: "I know that most of our houses aren't exactly on good terms, none from my house is fond of other houses either, but this time we all represent Hogwarts, So I hope that in the course of this exchange, everyone can put aside the contradictions from the school. Unite and let the students of Castelobruxo see how good we are."
After the senior student spoke, the carriage suddenly became quiet. Then a sixth year from Ravenclaw walked up, shook her hand, and said, "You are right." After that, everyone shook hands with her.
Obviously, the friendly exchange between the magic schools is not just a friendly exchange, it is also a kind of competition between magic schools. Since it is a competition, then the winner will naturally be rewarded. So to win, the students of the four houses began to try to unite together. Although not very harmonious, at least this is a good start.
Of course, this situation is also attributed to the more pure-blooded houses such as Ravenclaw and Slytherin. Those students who come from large pure-blood families often have no ambitions for academics and put a lot of energy to build a better network. So they are not the top academically. The few pure-blood students who came to exchange this time all came from some relatively marginal small families in the wizarding world and did not dare to show strong racist tendencies. In this case, achieving harmony is much easier than imagined.
In theory, long-distance travel in the magical world is often a happy journey. But none of the students on this trip felt happy —there was just a boring blue sky and white clouds outside, with no scenery to see. Also, they need to study intensively. In addition, the diet is also very monotonous.
Fortunately, such days were not long, when the wall clock in the lounge rang the next day. Professor Sprout told everyone to change into dresses and gowns because the destination was approaching. Ryan's gown is navy blue. When he got dressed and walked out of his room, he happened to see Hermione walking out of the next room. She was wearing a goose yellow robe, which made her look sunnier than before.
When they came to the common room, they saw Professor Sprout wearing a brown silk robe standing there and shouting: "Everyone stand in two rows according to year, and after a while, you will follow Professor Silvanus Kettleburn and me to get out of the carriage. Now check your clothes again to make sure there is no problem."
Afterward, Professor Sprout called out some student and another fifth-year Slytherin boy from the team and asked them to hold a silver instrument that Ryan didn't even recognize. And told them that after the two professors greet the other school, they would give these gifts to the Headmaster of Castelobruxo.
It turns out that even in the magical world, there is this habit of exchanging gifts. Therefore, Professor Sprout selected representatives who will not act detrimental to the image of Hogwarts.
Ten minutes later, when the students were feeling a little impatient, they could feel the train slow down and it came to the halt slowly, and then a feeling of weightlessness hit them.
After a few minutes, with some shock, the carriage came to a complete standstill. They must have arrived at Castelobruxo.
