Chapter 78 The first battle with Peeves

William just wanted to say if the clothes got wet, should I use magic or something to dry them If he did, he was dragged away by Adams.

"Don't worry, Aphra is a stubborn child. She admits to death when she says she is a mushroom. Unless Professor Taylor comes over in person, no one will be able to persuade her."

"Then leave it alone?"

"What's the hurry, Professor Taylor will be here soon."

Sure enough, as Adams said, the child's father is very fast Came to the door of the common room.

"What? Aphra got into trouble again?"

"No no."

Adams shook his head very freely.

Professor Taylor looked suspicious, then pushed open the door of the common room and entered.

A few minutes later, the sound of wail like ghosts and howl like wolves came from the common room.

"Is this what you call persuasion?"

William rolled his eyes at Adams--you're a professor, what's so vulgar?

"Aiya, everyone is used to it. When Aphra gets stubborn, she is about to be beaten. Anyway, she can't persuade her. Professor Taylor is measured and just watching. Ah, anyway, Aphra is very good and never holds grudges."

While speaking, the door of the common room opened again, and the little mushroom who was squatting in the corner was sobbing and was pulled out by the hand.

"Professor Adams, please take care of Aphra, and I'll find Peeves."

Professor Taylor's face was a little more severe than when he came, and it was only when he entrusted the child Reluctantly restrained his emotions, wand did not put away, carrying wand and strode away at the end of the corridor.

"William, go and have a look. I'm looking at Aphra here. I'm really not sure if Professor Taylor has beaten Peeves."

"You're kidding me. ?"

William had his eye on Adams - although he didn't know what Peeves was, what if a grown wizard couldn't beat Peeves?
"Oh, almost forgot, you're new here, Peeves is the elf of the school and probably existed before Professor Binns - from the day he entered the castle, the school administrators tried every means to get him out , but there is no successful precedent now."

"According to the agreement between the school and Peeves, the professors will not shoot it at will, and it will respect the professor in the school, but if Professor Taylor actively seeks trouble, he will It's not in the agreed range."

Wait, William suddenly thought of the card he had obtained earlier.

Peeves is mentioned on the card in the font densely packed - a card with half a description of his exploits.

If all the information above is true, that thing is really hard to deal with.

"Okay, then I'll go over," William agreed, then took out the candy from his pocket, crouched and handed it to the little girl who was still crying.

—

“Peeves,” William walked briskly down the hallway, recalling what he had seen recently about Hogwarts, and the amazing thing was that there were not many This book is willing to mention that elf in the book.

"That's not great."

William muttered to himself as he walked.

Not being recorded in the book does not mean that the elf is unimportant, on the contrary, the high probability event is that no one has found a very effective way to drive the elf away, and the elf has It's just that he didn't do too much, and it's not worth recording the evil deeds alone.

"Hey, ma'am, could you please tell me where Peeves is?"

William moved towards a portrait by the roadside who was drinking in a painting.

"Peeves? Professor, has the school decided to expel it again? A professor just asked the same. It's looking for moldy bread in the kitchen. I hope you can expel it this time, on my portrait. It almost hit him with bread this time!"

This word made William nervous for a while, such a good elf, Professor Taylor is too impulsive!

'Ghosts are mostly imprints left by wizards in the world. To deal with ghosts, we must focus on the memories he values - Peeves hangs with ghosts all day long, and what he values should be pranks. If you destroy its mischief, it should be able to let it give up and continue to entangle. '

'If Peeves is really as strong as the card says, then it is likely that the prank was too powerful, so no one could interrupt, so the school at the time agreed to give Peeves preferential treatment ——But I'm not sure if it's true, and I don't know if the headmaster at that time released water because he liked this ghost that adjusts the atmosphere. '

"The most direct pranks must rely on props. The spells I need to release should include Impediment Jinx for destroying flying objects, flying spells for holding objects, spells for unlocking traps, and spells for unlocking. Spells - if they don't work, spells that leave peacefully."

Although Peeves hasn't been seen yet, William has planned some scenarios ahead of time.

Although he has a little confidence in his battle strength, he is not arrogant enough to think that he can easily deal with the problems that have not been dealt with in school for so many years - after all, he has not mastered the Silent Spell very well. Woolen cloth!

'This should be the kitchen. '

William, as another portrait said, came to a fruit painting and scratched the pears in the portrait.

Then Pear wriggled, giggling, and suddenly turned into a large green doorknob.

William pulled the door handle, next moment, a moldy loaf flew out - if William hadn't prepared in advance, this thing would have hit him directly in the face.

Upholding the Shield Charm, William stepped through the door.

At this moment, the whole kitchen was thrown into chaos, a dwarf with evil black eyes, mouth wide open, floating cross-legged in midair, holding a full basket of moldy bread in his hand, he was taking down the The house elf used as a target to practice bombing.

'This is Peeves? What about Professor Taylor? '

But there was no room for him to think too much. Just as William was distracted, the bread was already hitting him like a bomb.

"La la la, another bad student who broke into the kitchen! Let Peeves teach you that this school is not for everyone!"

William quickly pulled out Out of the wand blocked with Impediment Jinx, but still a fish that escaped the net landed on the Shield Charm from the air, making a clanging sound.

Such an attack isn't lethal, but it's disgusting enough--William understood almost instantly why this guy had made such a big name.

It's just like dipping the mop in the toilet, and taking it out is War God. It's not that others can't withstand the attack, but the negative state is too disgusting.

'Try it, stop the prank. '

William took time to aim at Peeves' basket while attacking the falling moldy bread.

Good, hit.

The bread basket exploded, and the moldy bread began to move erratically throughout the air. Several smashed into Peeves' face, causing the elf to curse.

With the constant cursing, the elf rushed towards the wall and disappeared into the kitchen.

'It's not as strong as I imagined, it can even be said to be weak, because this time mischief props are just bread? '

William makes a guess and keeps it in his head.

When he turned his head, he saw a serious-looking Professor Taylor and a delighted administrator Filch.

Professor Taylor, co-authored you to find foreign aid?
