[HP:Failed Art Student]-Chapter 70: Ethan: Puppy, Open the Door Obediently ^▽^

Before opening the door and delivering a bit of warmth to Cerberus, Ethan still needed to practice this Chain Spell.

"Practice makes perfect, but unfortunately, it's the civilized year of 1991, and there are no poaching gangs lurking in the Forbidden Forest just waiting to be used as targets," Ethan murmured, feeling a genuine pang of regr...

And so it went.

Professor Quirrell was surprised to see Ethan wearing an excited expression, even though he'd clearly failed to cast the spell.

Professor Quirrell couldn't understand it.

Just as he was about to offer some guidance, he saw Ethan raise his wand again.

Over and over.

"First, we'll practice the hand movements for memory extraction... They—they're the most basic aids."

"The—the wand tip needs to have a subtle, small tremor."

Quirrell waved his wand, just as Ethan had seen in the book.

The posture was somewhat like extracting one's own thoughts and placing them into a Pensieve.

It must be said that Cassandra’s words were an absolute deathblow to those two.

For wild magical creatures or ordinary animals that neither hibernate nor store food for emergencies, the Forbidden Forest’s winter is a time of scarcity. They must hunt to secure the nutrients necessary for survival.
