Chapter 202: Occlumency

Chapter 202 Occlumency

Before returning to the dormitory, Albert went to the library to see what was going on there. After all, this matter was caused by himself, so it is natural to pay attention to the follow-up development.

Before passing the library, he found several students around him looking into the library, as if they were curious about what happened inside.

"What's going on?" Albert walked over to ask a student who was watching around.

"Don't know."

"Mrs. Pingsi is counting the collection of books in the restricted area." A girl gossiped, "I heard that several books were taken away from the restricted area."

"The books in the restricted section are all dangerous books." Someone came over and joined the topic.

Albert didn’t stay and continue to join in the fun. This matter has nothing to do with him. He returned all the books he “borrowed” from the restricted section.

Backing to the dormitory, Albert took out ten Galleons directly from the interlayer of the suitcase, and put them into the money bag made by Transfiguration.

If ten Galleons can allow Albert to learn Occlumency, the money is well worth the money.

Before mastering Occlumency, Albert would never have revealed the matter of the crown to Dumbledore.

When Albert came to the classroom No. 17 used by the Transformation Club, he found that Isobel had arrived ahead of schedule. She was sitting in her armchair and flipping through the latest issue of "Transformation Today".

"You came on time." The girl said without raising her head.

"Being on time is a virtue." Albert took out a money bag from the pocket of his robe and handed it to Isobel. "The agreed tuition fee, I think we can start."

Isobel closed the magazine, looked up at the money bag handed to him, reached out to take it and put it in his pocket, nodded and said, "Let's get started!"

"Aren't you going to check it?" Albert reminded with a half-smile, "Maybe it's not Garen, but Nat."

Isobel's expression froze, he raised his head and glanced at Albert, and then, under the gaze of the other party, he took out the money bag and took out a... Nat from it.

This guy definitely did it on purpose.

Isobel realized that he was molested by the other party, he really is a bad character!

"Sorry, I was just joking." Albert had an unconcealable smile on his face, and he saw a moment of astonishment on Isobel's face just now.

As he spoke, Albert took out another money bag from his pocket and handed it to Isobel. As for the ten Nats just now, he has no intention of getting them back at all.

After the latter took it, he opened his eyes and looked at the Garen inside. This time it was really Garen.

"I think you should have read "Advanced Occlumency Guide." Isobel put the purse in his pocket and said meaningfully, "I think you should have been to the restricted section of the library last night , secretly borrowed that book!"

Isobel pointed out very simply that Albert was the culprit of the riot last night.

"No, I haven't had time to borrow "Advanced Occlumency Guide" from the library to read it." Albert also denied this matter very flatly.

"Well, Occlumency is actually a kind of magic that can prevent the mind from being invaded and affected by magic. Generally, wizards who are good at using Occlumency are also good at Legilimency." Isobel didn't care about Albert's denial at all. For this matter, two armchairs were pulled in, and Albert sat opposite him. The distance between the two sides was only three feet, and Albert could even feel Isobel's heartbeat and breathing.

He looked at the Ravenclaw genius in front of him openly. This is a very beautiful red-haired girl, but her temperament is a bit cold, or arrogant.

However, geniuses are like this, and Albert is not incomprehensible.

"...Some wizards are very good at Legilimency." Isobel noticed Albert looking at him, raised his eyebrows, and continued: "They can usually easily tell whether you are lying, Professor Snape is The best example, he can always see if others are lying to him... Only a wizard who is good at Occlumency can seal the feeling and memory that contradicts the lie, and lie in front of the skilled minder without being discovered. "

"Obviously, you're not a good conjurer, are you?" Albert blinked, and casually made another harmless joke.

"Yes, I'm not a good Legilimimist." Isobel admitted bluntly, and continued: "One thing you must know is that eye contact is often crucial to Legilimency, so...look into my eyes. "

Albert suddenly had a bad feeling.

"It seems that you are not ignorant of Legilimency and Occlumency." Isobel said after a moment of silence.

"You just used it, right!" Albert said suddenly.

"Yes." Isobel said: "I used Legilimency to open a window in your eyes just now, and extracted the feelings and memories I need from the brain inside. The head of an ordinary wizard, for a Legilimist Said, without any defense. Of course, it is not easy to learn it."

"Do you know what I'm thinking right now?" Albert looked away, with a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth.

"It's useless even if you compliment me." Isobel said subconsciously: "Also, whether I will age prematurely has nothing to do with you."

"Sure enough, it was directly seen through." Albert looked at Isobel in surprise, and continued, "It seems that your Legilimency is not as bad as you said!"

"What an annoying guy, put away your boring temptations." Isobel's eyes flashed a trace of embarrassment, and she had realized that Albert's words just now were to test her.

No matter what woman she is, she values ​​her appearance very much, and this guy in front of her obviously knows this very well, and uses this to test her own level of Legilimency.

"Okay, I'm going to enter your brain to see your resistance." Isobel raised his wand and reminded: "You need to get rid of distracting thoughts, throw away all your emotions, and try to prevent me from invading your brain."

"I see." Albert muttered.

"Prepare, three, two, one, Legilimency!" Isobel made a move. Although Albert had prepared in advance, the moment he was concentrated by the spell, he was still a little unprepared:

The classroom flickered and disappeared in front of Albert, and pictures flashed through his mind like a movie.

At the age of six, Albert was riding a new bicycle given to him by his parents in the park.

At the age of eight, Albert was sitting on the sofa, telling fairy tales to his sister…”

Albert experienced this feeling with great interest, he knew very well that Isobel was flipping through his memory.

After a while, Albert began to try to prevent her from invading his brain, and began to consciously recall the books on economics and mathematics that he had read, preparing to use these memories to contain the other party, and to gradually deepen and flip through the books. The feeling of own memory is pushed out from the brain.

"You succeeded." Isobel's tone was somewhat amazed, and she never thought that Albert could successfully resist her Legilimency.

In particular, she also noticed that when she pushed her thoughts out, she saw Albert subconsciously create a maze to block her peeping into his brain.

"Well, this feeling... feels weird, not good!" Albert's breathing was a little short, and he found himself back in the classroom of the Transfiguration Club.

"Let me take a break." Albert took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, took a bite, and asked subconsciously, "Do you want it?"

Isobel glanced at the bitten chocolate, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, but she still did not refuse Albert's kindness, took the chocolate, and folded a piece of the back that was not bitten.

"You did a good job, much better than my first attempt." Isobel continued, "Now, you need to concentrate and use your brain to resist my invasion."

After all, Isobel still needs to do a good job of taking someone else's Gallon.

"I know what I should do!" Albert said casually. He began to try to check the skill panel, but unfortunately there was still no Occlumency.

It seems that we need to try a few more times.

Although it was expected, he was still quite depressed. Even though Albert didn't care about being seen some of his childhood memories, he was still a little upset.

"Get rid of distracting thoughts, concentrate your thoughts, and let go of all your emotions." Isobel reminded, "I'm going to start!"

"Wait!" Albert suddenly raised his hand to stop the other party from casting a spell.

"Is there anything else?" Isobel's arms stopped, and he looked at Albert suspiciously, not understanding what he wanted to do.

"Make it on a cushion." Albert moved the armchair away, took a cushion and placed it on the carpet, then sat cross-legged on the cushion, relaxed his body, and tried to put himself in a state of meditation.

"It's time to start!"

"Three, two, one, Legilimency!" Isobel cast the spell again.

Aged nine, Albert was in the kitchen helping his family make Nia’s birthday cake…

At this moment, he was emptying his mind as much as possible, concentrating all his attention on crowding out Isobel's thoughts, and the pictures in his mind gradually disappeared.

Albert suddenly opened his eyes, seeing the momentary shock on Isobel's face.

Yes, even Isobel never thought that Albert could master Occlumency so quickly and resist his own invasion.

"You succeeded!" Isobel said suddenly, "I have nothing to teach you."

As she said, she was about to get up and leave, but Albert stretched out his hand to hold Isobel's arm, because Albert had just flipped through the skills on the panel again, and there was still no Occlumency.

"That's not how you steal money." Albert looked at Isobel helplessly, "I feel like I haven't successfully mastered Occlumency. Let's talk about the things to pay attention to in Occlumency and Legilimency , I am so sincere, you should also show a little sincerity."

"Okay!" Isobel agreed after thinking about it. He didn't know whether he realized that he was too foolish or because of other reasons. He began to explain to Albert her own use of Occlumency and Legilimency. understand.

The communication between the two about Occlumency lasted about half an hour.

Isobel really deserves to be a genius. Even though he just came into contact with Occlumency, he still has his own unique insights into this magic.

After listening to Isobel's explanation, and after trying several times one after another, Albert finally found that Occlumency appeared on his skill panel.

Looking at the Occlumency on the skill panel, Albert couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If he didn't learn it after spending Gallon, he would be in trouble.

Upgrading Occlumency to level two, Albert closed his eyes to feel the changes brought about by the skill upgrade. When Albert opened his eyes again, they became somewhat hollow.

Isobel, who noticed Albert's change, couldn't help frowning slightly.

"I think the deal between us has been completed!" Isobel said. When she got up to leave, she was grabbed by Albert again.
