Trelawney's Prophecy That Lucas Is Going To Die?

Hermione looked so nervous that it made Lucas laugh.

"It doesn't matter if others notice it."

Hearing her boyfriend's words, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"You really scared the hell out of me."

After finishing speaking, she fiddled with the tea cup on the low table.

Hermione had no talent for divination, this is all due to her serious and strictly logical personality. For her, there is just no basis for divination.

Hermione always wanted to understand how divination works.

Why is it that divination doesn't seem to make any sense?

So for Hermione, the scientific way of arithmetic prediction is much more suitable.

"Hermione, you can't always avoid talking to me about your Time-Turner."

Hermione's hand that was holding the tea cup paused for a moment. And helplessly, she looked up at the boy that was sitting in front of her, letting out a long breath she asked: "Okay, what do you want to talk about?"

"Hermione, I think Professor Mcgonagall should have told you about the drawbacks of Time-Turners."

"Of course." Hermione nodded and said, "No one can violate the principle of time paradox, otherwise it will bring great disaster to mankind."

"Yes, it's the effect on other people, but I'm actually talking about the effect the Time-Turner has on yourself."

"On me?" Hermione looked at her boyfriend with a puzzled expression on her face.

Lucas first glanced up at Professor Trelawney and noticed that she was still teaching everyone how to use the so-called tea divination method.

It is estimated that she will not be finished in at least another half an hour.

"My dear, even if you use it strictly according to the rules, the energy you expend and all the homework of the courses will eventually make you collapse. Our bodies are used to the 24 hour long days, so adding extra hours to the day takes a toll on the body."

"And how do you ensure that you won't encounter any unexpected situations when using the time turner, once an unexpected event occurs, not only will you be affected, but other people will also be affected, such as seeing two of you at the same time..."

Lucas shut his mouth when he finished. He trusted Hermione to understand what he was trying to convey.

"But I want to learn more."

"My dear, you should study worthy subjects, such as ancient runes."

"Trust me, Divination just isn't for you."

Hermione was silent for a long time. Looking at her frowning, one can see how troubled she is.

Lucas sighed: "It's just the beginning, you can continue like this, take a few more lessons and you'll understand what I mean."

"Especially Muggle Studies, in fact, Muggle Studies in the wizarding world is nothing more than a joke, they are just way too prejudiced against Muggles, even the Professor of the subject. Heck, just remember Arthur Weasley who works in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Department, does it look like he actually knows anything about Muggles?"

"Okay, I'll try for another week. If it's as you said, I'll give up those two electives."

Lucas was relieved by Hermione's compromise, it's really difficult to convince this stubborn girl.

"That's right, I don't want my girlfriend to spend the little rest time on study, she should be by my side instead"

Seeing Lucas' eyes full of smiles as he waggled his eyebrows, Hermione flushed slightly. She knew this guy was not serious.

"Everyone!" Professor Trelawney raised her voice suddenly.

The students who were about to fall asleep were startled into awakening.

"Now, as you can see you are all paired in twos, so pick up your respective tea cups on the table and I will fill it up for you, after you drink the tea inside, you must wipe the cup three times with your left hand."

". . . When everything is ready, please exchange teacups with your companions, and then explain what you see according to the content of the book. "

They all lined up to fill their teacups.

Lucas took a sip of his tea and frowned, dissatisfied by the taste.

"What's wrong?"

"It's a really bad tea."

Her boyfriend's comment made Hermione laugh, knowing how much tea he drinks all the time.

The two of them quickly finished their tea and following Professor Trelawney's instructions, they turned their cups upside down on the saucer, wiped the outside of the cup three times with their left hand.

Then they waited until the tea inside was dry before exchanging teacups.

"Oh honey, your tea looks great." Hermione said, glancing at the teacup.

Seeing her boyfriend cooperate with her to cast a questioning look, she pretended to open the book and said, "You are so lucky, here it says that you have two very beautiful girlfriends and all their love."

"Yes, very lucky indeed."

The young couple's flirting did not consider the feelings of the people around them.

But at this time everyone was busy studying the teacup in their hands, so they did not pay too much attention to the two.

Ron held Harry's teacup in his hand as he checked the contents of the book.

"The pattern in your cup seems to be an animal, yes it is an animal."

Ron turned the cup awkwardly, trying to identify what animal was inside.

At this time, Professor Trelawney came up to the two.

Seeing that Ron was having problems, she kindly stepped forward to help: "Son, let me take a look for you."

The thick lenses reflected a bright light.

Trelawney looked down, slowly turning the teacup in her hand.

She seemed to see something dangerous because the expression on her face became more and more dignified.

Suddenly, she threw the teacup violently on the table and took a few steps back, covering her heart with her hands and closed her eyes.

Her expression was painful and full of anguish, as if she was hesitating and struggling to say the next thing.

"Professor, what is the meaning of this cup?"

At this moment, the people in the classroom had surrounded Harry and Ron's table, looking at Harry's teacup curiously.

But they just couldn't see why the Professor was acting like that.

"Oh my boy, there's danger ahead of you..."

Trelawney came up to Harry and her eyes, magnified by the lens, stared at him firmly.

"It's the Grim, dear, this is a bad omen, an omen of death."

"You will meet death this year, oh poor boy!"

Trelawney looked sad and returned to her seat after speaking.

Harry's face was pale at the moment. He thought back to the black dog he met during summer vacation.

He also thought of the dementors, all these bad memories he saw that day flooded his mind.

"Look, Harry is freaking out."

"Come on, Dean, his death has just been predicted."

"I actually think that it might not be the black dog that causes Harry's death, but the dementors. After all, both are black."

"I think so too, maybe the professor is wrong."

The students returned to their seats talking and laughing.

Even in the wizarding world, most people distrust divination.

Even Dumbledore wanted to cancel Divination a long time ago if it wasn't for the prophecy he heard from Trelawney during her interview.

So the student's reaction was normal.

Probably only Harry took Professor Trelawney's words seriously.

"Harry, are you okay? Don't pay attention to what these people say."

"I'm fine Ron, don't worry, I'm used to it."

Yes, he got used to it. Summer vacation at the Leaky Cauldron was even more unbearable than it is now.

Harry let out a long breath and let go of the unpleasant memories in his mind.

Picking up his teacup again, he was going to continue to ask Professor Trelawney for advice.

But when he looked up he saw that the professor had already walked to Lucas' low table where Hermione was discussing the result of the divination just now with her boyfriend.

"I think there is no basis for this at all, why does seeing a black dog herald death?"

Facing his more serious girlfriend, Lucas had no choice but to explain according to the contents of the book.

It won't be long before Hermione would drop the course herself anyway. For her, divination is nothing more than nonsense and deceit.

"Oh dear, I feel your confusion, give me the teacup, and I'll help you take a look."

Professor Trelawney's voice suddenly appeared beside them and Hermione looked a little embarrassed.

As a top student, she is well aware of how impolite it is to speak ill of a professor behind his or her back. She didn't know if the other party heard it or not.

Hermione nervously handed the teacup to Professor Trelawney.

At the same time she was curious to see if the professor could see something this time.

Actually, she is not the only one who is curious. The others in the classroom even stood up to look at their table better.

One of the guys even ran up behind Lucas.

Trelawney exclaimed and threw the cup in her hand to the ground. The sound of the cup breaking reached everyone's ears and the divination classroom fell silent in an instant.

Everyone stretched their ears, waiting for the professor to say what she saw.

"Death, a death more terrible than Mr. Potter's!"

"My child, you are so pitiful!"

Professor Trelawney actually shed tears in front of everyone. And Hermione, who originally sneered at divination, tightly clenched her boyfriend's hand.

"Lucas..."

"Don't worry dear, in fact Professor Trelawney predicts the death of at least one person every year, but those people are still alive and well."

"I think the professor felt that one was not enough this year, so she temporarily increased the death quota."

Lucas whispered in Hermione's ear. Then he left his seat under the curious eyes of everyone and walked up to Professor Trelawney step by step.

"What a coincidence, professor, I also have some divination talents, and I also saw something about you, would you like to hear about it?"

These words aroused the interest of everyone in the room. Even Professor Trelawney raised her head curiously and looked at the blond boy in front of her.
