Chapter 171 Information Now Available for Public Release

In the early morning, the spring sunlight shone on Hogwarts Castle and shone through the glass into the office.

Loila sat at her desk, looking at the magic circle in front of her, but if you looked closely, you would notice that she was somewhat absent-minded.

She gently shook her legs, her pointed ears perked up, and whenever she heard any noise outside the door, she would immediately tremble.

The reason is simple—it's all because of what happened a few days ago!

Why—why is this happening?!

I merely dealt with the hidden dangers I left behind—and as a result—I became some kind of hero!

Professor Hamilton's act of saving three students and a professor has become a hot topic at Hogwarts these past few days. Although the students did not know that this matter was related to Voldemort, they still flocked to the school hospital to visit her.

Of course, a large part of the reason was about Loila's appearance—her appearance was seen.

The news that Professor Hamilton was a half-Veep spread like wildfire throughout Hogwarts, as did her appearance.

The photo in that newspaper was dug out and made into many copies, which circulated widely among the students.

"This is what Professor Hamilton looks like under that mask!"

"Professor Hamilton looks so cute!"

Such remarks spread widely among the students and were even discussed in class—it is said that Professor Snape punished more than a dozen students with detention because of this.

But this is just a drop in the ocean compared to the current craze. Luna said that even the number of people joining the Pinecone Party is starting to increase.

This was clearly an organization meant to stop Mr. Lockhart! Why does it seem like it's turned into some kind of fan club now?

Could Dumbledore please shut it down? This illegal organization!

Loila covered her head as she thought about what she had been through these past few days—as soon as she stepped out of her office, students would swarm around her and ask her all sorts of questions.

Some students would ask about spells, while others would ask strange questions.

"What does Professor Hamilton like?"

"Does Professor Hamilton have someone he likes?"

"Professor, what do you think of my appearance?"

Words like that—every time Loila heard them, she had to do her best to stay conscious so she wouldn't faint again.

Thankfully, Dumbledore said he would cancel the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes for the next few weeks so that Royla could recover properly—that was wonderful.

It would be even better if we didn't have to attend classes for the next few months!

For the first time, Loila genuinely praised Dumbledore—if he hadn't given her a chance to rest—

The thought of what might happen in class made Loila's legs go weak.

But it is true that Professor Loila Hamilton has become a celebrity at Hogwarts, even more so than the Harry Potter craze before.

The aloof and silent professor is actually a very cute little girl, and this seemingly adorable girl is incredibly powerful, capable of easily defeating a dark wizard comparable to Voldemort.

Such rumors are always newsworthy.

Not to mention the extra Easter egg news such as the unicorn entrance, the Silent Spell, and the Veela hybrid —

Loila even heard that the Pinecone Party was considering publishing a magazine about her, detailing the various rumors surrounding her.

Thankfully, Professor McGonagall found out about it and stopped it from happening—otherwise, Roy might have chosen to flee that very night.

In any case, for Loira, staying in the office as much as possible is the best way to avoid going out.

Fortunately, I've gotten used to not eating for several days, and Miss Nagini can find food on her own.

With a soft sigh, Loila closed the magic circle in front of her.

Despite some worries, Loila found herself surprisingly not afraid—even though knowing that others would find out she was a half-Veenea would lead to terrible pranks in Durmstrang.

But at Hogwarts—it seems to only make the students like themselves more—more.

Is that liking someone?

Loila didn't quite understand—but she could certainly appreciate the students' good intentions, even though those intentions felt a bit heavy for her.

But this kindness did indeed lessen her fear and anxiety.

Of course, it could also be because none of the people she met—Luna, Mr. Lupin, or Hagrid—expressed any opinion about this identity.

Her friend's understanding eased much of her fear—but her friend—

Is Mr. Riddle still my friend?

Loira was actually a little confused. Maybe Mr. Lockhart had led her astray? After all, Mr. Lockhart was indeed a bad guy.

He is suspected of using obliteration spells on many wizards and of fabricating information in his books—Mr. Lockhart may be sent to Azkaban.

However, Loila felt she should still visit him if she had the chance, after all—after all, he was still willing to be her friend—

Even though it's on the premise that I'm about to be caught—doesn't that also show that being friends with myself is at least much more acceptable than going to Azkaban?

If it were Royla herself, she really wouldn't know what to choose.

Ultimately, however many things have happened, Loira must continue moving forward—the semester's courses are not yet over, and she has yet to meet Lord Grindelwald—

There's been no progress in magic array studies—there's still one magic array that hasn't been cracked, and Loila still doesn't understand the meaning of the cipher text on it—

In addition, Loila had a new idea about an automated magic circle—a magic circle that could replicate actions and had infinite possibilities.

Loila didn't want its function to be limited to just making coffee.

"Buzz".

The communication wristband gleamed faintly as Loila gently waved her wand, adding some coffee beans to the coffee machine.

Seeing a steaming cup of coffee placed in front of her, Loila momentarily thought it was quite nice.

Maybe I can research whether it's possible to make it cook automatically.

That way, I really won't have to leave the office, right?

"Bang bang bang".

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

Loila paused for a moment, then quickly held her breath—I'm not in the office—I'm not in the office—

"Miss Hamilton?"

"Hmm!"

Hearing the voice, Loila breathed a sigh of relief—though it sounded a little sad, hearing Professor McGonagall's voice made Loila much happier than hearing a student's voice.

But why would Professor McGonagall come looking for me?

Loila cautiously opened a crack in the door, her heart filled with doubt.
