H . P . S . T Chapter 263: Hermiones Trust

In the Great Hall, the mood was somewhat awkward .

Ron and Hermione looked at Harry fading away, and no one spoke .

Ron said savvy, with a long sigh, Harry has always been like this, blindly trusting others; hes always too optimistic .

Ron turned to look at Hermione as if expecting something .

Like Harry, I believe in Evan, too . Hermione repeated, Hes done a lot to prove that hes not like an evil Dark wizard

I believe in him too . We all believe in him! Ron said ruefully, waving his tableware vigorously . I know; Evan is very good . He has done a lot of great things I cant do all my life . But the problem now is that he is just an ordinary person, and he may not be able to resist the temptation of power . The evil black magic is much stronger than ordinary magic, maybe thats why he is strong . You understand what I mean, Hermione?

The more Ron spoke, the more he leaned towards this possibility . If Evan did not study black magic, how to explain all the magical power he had at such a young age?

Evan was just an ordinary Muggle-born . He never had any encounter with magic before he came to Hogwarts . If it wasnt for some special reasons, he couldnt have become so powerful so fast, even surpassing all the pure-blood young wizards .

Ron did not deny that Evan was really hard-working . But with just hard work, he should be at most in Hermiones league, not more .

This was very abnormal . He must be studying the evil black magic secretly . At the thought of this possibility, Ron felt this was more unfair than frightening . In his opinion, Evan was cheating .

Evan deceived others and got what he should not have .

Thinking of this, Rons breathing became a bit faster . After being saved by Evan last semester, he had intended to give up on all of his wicked thoughts and decided to see Evan as his true friend, just like Harry and Hermione .

But Ron was uncomfortable with the thought that Evan might be studying the Dark Arts, and that everyone was blinded, and that he currently got everything . The idea kept creeping into his mind that if he had studied the Dark Arts himself, he might not be much worse than Evan .

Immense strength, great fame, others eyes worship, supreme glory, and the affection of Hermione All those things were initially out of reach, but there was suddenly a shortcut, and he had just to stretch out his hand to get there .

Immense strength, great fame, others eyes worship, supreme glory, and the affection of Hermione All those things were initially out of reach, but there was suddenly a shortcut, and he had just to stretch out his hand to get there .

Ron had this fantasy, and then shook his head and repeatedly told himself that he would not do it .

Unlike Evan, he would not degenerate into the study of evil black magic . Such a thing should be absolutely prohibited .

Hermione didnt answer when she heard Rons words . She shook her head blankly .

I mean, Evan is also likely to make mistakes . Ron was dissatisfied with Hermiones reaction, and he continued, frowning . We have to be careful, and if Evan is really working on the Dark Arts now, we have to take action .

What do you want to do? Hermione looked scared .

I havent thought about it yet, but at least I should stop him and publish it so that everyone knows what hes doing . Thats fair, isnt it?

Listen to me, Ron! Hermione took a deep breath and made up her mind to say, If you want to ask others what they think about this, I dont think Evans study of the Dark Arts would be anything to be surprised about . Others would probably think the same, and thats the main reason why no one believes that ridiculous rumor . We all know what kind of person Evan is . He studies magic not to use it, but to enhance his power against future powerful enemies .

What a noble reason . What enemies does he need to face? Ron scorned and said, Pettigrew has been caught . This is HOGWARTS . Dumbledore is HERE . How could there be any enemies?

Did you forget the prophecy that Evan told us the other day in the Christmas holidays? Hermione said, Voldemort will come back, and he will be stronger than ever, with the help of some chosen one .

You mean the prophecy made by Professor Trelawney, I thought you never believed it?! Ron waved indifferently . We all know shes faking it again, bluffing Evan to make Christmas more exciting .

Professor Trelawney may be a liar, but you cant deny that she might make a real prophecy . Hermione continued, trying to persuade Ron, Besides this, Evan mentioned the Secret Treasure left by the Four Founders . There must be something they knew was coming that made them leave something behind .

Its just that Evan himself is the one who said that he had seen it, or that he had returned to Hogwarts a thousand years ago . No one can guarantee its true . Ron said stubbornly, Even if the Four Founders really left any magic items, its another matter if they would work properly . After all, its been so long, any kind of magic should be ineffective!

But Evan said that in the Centaurs colony in the Forbidden Forest

Dont change the topic, Hermione . Were all talking about Evan doing research on the Dark Arts . Its not about the Four Founders or the Centaurs in the Forbidden Forest . Ron looked at Hermione and said expectantly, Come with me to look for evidence, Hermione . Im sure Evans working on the Dark Arts . We can go and uncover him . I feel like Im on the verge of getting to the truth .

No, whatever it is, I believe in Evan! Hermione repeated again, with a firm voice .

There was no need for any evidence . What Ron said, Evan had already told her about it, and she had also made her decision .

There was no need for any evidence . What Ron said, Evan had already told her about it, and she had also made her decision .

I know, I believe in him too! Ron stood up straight and said violently . I cant understand . Whats the matter with you two? Look at you and Harry . It looks like I am doing the wrong thing again . Im just kind enough to remind you that if youre not careful, youll probably regret it in the future .

Attracted by Rons cry, everyone in the Great Hall turned to him in surprise, wondering what had happened and what he was talking about .

Feeling everyones gaze, Ron sat down with a red face, and ears as red as bricks .

A few seconds later, seeing Hermiones unchanged eyes, he was like a deflated balloon, powerlessly saying, Well, maybe youre right, Im just too sensitive . You know, because when it comes to black magic, I want to be more careful .

I understand what you mean, Ron! Hermione patted Rons shoulder and comforted him . We really should be careful . I will persuade Evan . But I still say that I believe in him . He promised me that he would never let me down .

The corner of Gryffindors long table was quiet again, and neither Ron nor Hermione spoke . They ate breakfast silently .

The two of them seemed to have their worries and didnt know what the other was thinking .
