Hogwarts becomes host

250. Memory Magic



Elaine had had Lupine cast an oblivion spell on her in the past.

At that time, she had not yet entered school and could not use magic, but she was very curious about any magic.

After her constant insistence, Lupine finally gave in and let her think that he didn't know any musical instruments and only knew how to sing.

It felt a bit like being hypnotized. First, there was a hazy, soothing, and confusing sleepiness that made her not want to spend too much effort thinking, and then she forgot about it.

If it weren't for the reminder from the live broadcast room, Elaine really wouldn't have noticed anything was wrong.

Or should I say, I won't notice it so quickly.

Lupine explained the principle of the Oblivion Curse, which has three steps.

First, break down the victim’s mental defenses.

Then search for and select Amnestic or Block.

Finally, a method similar to a confusion spell is used to make the victim subconsciously ignore the matter.

The more complex, profound, and important the memory is, the more difficult it is to delete it. Forcibly deleting it will cause serious damage to the other person's mind. The only way is to seal those memories deep in the mind, so that the victim cannot remember, or does not want to recall. this matter.

It sounds very simple, but after Elaine actually came into contact with magic, she realized that the Forgetting Curse was not that easy to cast.

Whether it is taking advantage of a weak point or forcibly breaking through the mental defense, whether it is searching for memories and modifying the blockade, there is a lot of knowledge involved.

It takes a lot of effort to understand this spell. It's okay if you just repair the memory of Muggles, because ordinary people are easily hypnotized or diverted, and their mental resistance is also low. If you want to attack wizards, the requirements are high. If one is not good, the other person will become an idiot before the memory is recalled.

Thinking about it this way, Lockhart is indeed a very powerful wizard.

Not only can it successfully deprive more than seven wizards of their memories, although the victims have all turned into idiots, but it can also prevent their relatives and friends from suspecting the matter. There are really not many people who can match the level of this forgetting spell.

But in other aspects, even the students can't compare. It's a bit weird. To master the Forgetting Curse, you should involve other magic fields. The foundation is not solid. How can you successfully study a magic?

Elaine suspected that he had accepted some kind of special deal, giving up all his magical abilities in exchange for the Forgetting Charm or something like that.

It's not impossible, but there's no way to check it now.

In short, Snape directly cast the Forgetting Curse on Elaine. Elaine did not expect that he would be so straightforward and just do it, so she had no defense at all.

But even so, Snape could not delete Elaine's memory, and Adair's ghost was still there.

Just like when Snape peeked at Elaine but was blocked by the music in the first grade, Adair could block him before she was conscious. Not to mention now, Snape didn't even break through Elaine's mental defense. The green membrane blocked his spell.

"Don't be like this, Severus." Adair's voice sounded in the room, a little noisy and not very clear. It seemed to be affected by the defensive spell set by Snape. "My daughter didn't mess with you."

"He pissed me off." Snape said gloomily, "You told her about this."

Why do I know you like Lily so I go against you?

Elaine wanted to complain, but with the forgetting curse just now, she didn't dare to irritate Snape anymore.

This guy's personality is extreme and egotistical, gloomy and mean, and he is not easy to get along with at all. Elaine doesn't want to fight with him before the live broadcast room recovers, although Snape seems to want to do so.

The painful past, twisted inferiority complex and the influence of black magic turned Snape into a hedgehog covered with thorns. This is why Elaine has never tried to contact him in the past two years. Lytlin and Elaine didn't think that Snape would be kind enough to help her for free.

The act of sacrificing himself for Lily is indeed very touching, but it cannot make up for his character flaws. Just look at it, but it is better to stay away from him when actually getting along with him.

"Just think so." Adair replied, "This is good for you and me, or you can blame the divination, because Lily, your and Harry Potter's fates are tied together."

"I want her to forget this memory." Snape glared at Elaine fiercely, as if
