Chapter 16:

Becoming stronger is a human instinct in nature.

He did not have that ability before, and he did not have that opportunity. Now the chances are before his eyes. If he does not fight for it, wouldn't it be a waste?

Then, in this class, he was teasing Luna while paying attention to Professor Quirrell from time to time, and it ended quickly.

"This class is...ends here, see you next time." Quirrell stood on the professor's stage and ended the class.

All the students stood up and said goodbye to the professor one by one, with a reluctant expression in their eyes. I have to say that Ravenclaw and even Hufflepuff's students are always the most eager for learning.

"Yes... By the way, Wilkes, stay here for a while." As Wilkes took Luna to prepare to leave, Professor Quirrell suddenly stopped Wilkes.

"Huh?" Wilkes looked wary.

Professor Quirrell stopped him. Could it be that he wanted to attach him? No, he should not dare to do it at Hogwarts.

Besides, for the "accident" just now, it would not be necessary to get rid of him, which would be too stupid.

However, after thinking about it, Wilkes frowned suddenly. Since he has no reason to stop him, which means...

"Is it Voldemort? for what? Because of my father, he wants to control me?" Wilkes guessed.

In just a short while, he had already guessed most of the facts!

"However, you are not the one who decides when I come and leave. Why should I listen to you?" Wilkes talked to himself in his heart and chuckled, pretending to be a frown, and looked at Professor Quirrell.

"Professor Quirrell, I'm sorry, I've to go with Luna to the library to study together. The professor won't mind, right?"

After finishing speaking, before Professor Quirrell could answer, Wilkes hurriedly pulled Luna out of the classroom without looking back.

"Next time you are free?" Professor Quirrell was stunned, but when he reacted, Wilkes was no longer in sight.

Professor Quirrell stood gnashing his teeth: "Wilkes!"

Did you turn me down directly?

...

"Wilks, when did we make an appointment to go to the library to read together?" Luna asked with a blushing expression.

"Just now." Wilkes chuckled and took Luna to the Hogwarts Library.

The Hogwarts Library, located on the second floor of Hogwarts Castle, has thousands of bookshelves and thousands of books.

As soon as he came here, Wilkes's eyes opened widely, which had many books, more than the books in the Ravenclaw's common room.

But he didn't go through the books one by one, as he couldn't finish it after a few days. Instead, he found the librarian, Madam Irma Pince.

She has a catalog of books, which can help him better find the books he needs.

In the end, he borrowed three books: "Forgotten Ancient Magic and Spells," "Guide to Medieval Witchcraft," and "Selected Charms of the Eighteenth Century."

Wilkes put all the books in the dragon skin bag and left the library with Luna, walking around Hogwarts Castle.

"Wilks, didn't you say you went to the library to read?" Luna was blushing all the way.

Because Wilkes had not let go of her hand since then.

"Reading in the library? That was a comment to avoid Professor Quirrell. Besides, didn't I borrow a few books, and I have time to read at night." Wilkes answered Luna with a smile.

Reading in the library with Luna? Wouldn't it be a waste of time? It's better to improve and relationships before the afternoon class start. Maybe you can...

Wilkes turned to look at Luna and smiled bitterly.

"It's a pity that the classes of Ravenclaw and Gryffindor are rarely come cross with each other, which is a troublesome thing." Wilkes sighed.

Not to mention that Hermione and Harry Potter are in Gryffindor. He still wants to try to contact Harry. Will he trigger the system?

"It seems that I have to figure out a way." Wilkes was planning for other things while he was walking with Luna.

There is a way right now. It is Professor Quirrell.

As a professor, he should be able to change the classes of the houses a little bit, right? Otherwise, it would be too bad. In his previous world, this kind of thing often happened.

Now, he does not want to contact Professor Quirrell before the right time as he planned and intends to let him go for a while.

...

Thus, the afternoon class soon arrived. Unlike the morning defense against the Dark Arts class, the afternoon class seemed much more boring.

Herbology class.

A subject that studies magic, common plants, and mushrooms. It is equivalent to botany in the muggle world.

Wilkes learned how to care for and use plants in the herbology class and understand their magical properties and applications.

The first-year herbology class will only talk about two kinds, Dittany and Devil's snare.

The devil's snare, Wilkes only remembered its weaknesses, afraid of light and flames; anyway, he will not plant it in the future.

As for Dittany is a very precious magic material, possessing a strong ability to heal wounds.

When he traded with Borgin for Hogwarts admission letter, Wilkes also bought a lot of bottles and cans, and there were Dittany among them.

Therefore, Wilkes knows this plant as well.

In the class, besides teasing and guiding Luna from time to time, Wilkes's performance was almost perfect.

After class, he was no different from the other Ravenclaw students and began a long and peaceful life.

He did not contact Professor Quirrell, nor did he intend to sneak into the library's restricted area for the time being, nor did he explore the hidden place of the Philosopher's Stone.

Like a "normal student," Wilkes gradually planned to move.
