Chapter 308: Ivan: I'm not a devil either!
Peter became more and more convinced in his heart that the little wizard in front of him wanted to torture himself, otherwise why would he use a spell to injure him, heal him, and then repeat the cycle...
Does this make any sense?
Peter's anger welled up in his heart, but when he saw Ivan approaching, his anger was instantly extinguished, and then turned to fear...
Ivan didn't continue to torture him as Peter had expected, looked at the parchment in his hand, and said to him.
"Alright, that's all for today... You become a rat, and I'll send you back later. ”
Hearing this, Peter's tears were about to fall, and it was finally over...
To Peter's surprise, Ivan was not going to kill him, but was going to send him back to Ron.
A hint of gratitude flashed in Peter's eyes, and he immediately transformed into the Animagus form as Ivan commanded...
But soon, Peter realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Ivan's words.
Wait a minute... That's all for today?
Does that mean there may be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?
Thinking of this, Peter suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and a cold air rushed from his heels to the top of his head.
Before he could think about it, a white light suddenly lit up, and Peter only had time to make a "squeak" before he passed out.
"Forget it!"
Ivan looked at the unconscious Peter and slowly put away his wand.
The Forgetting Charm he had learned from Lockhart was now more and more adept at it.
Inevitably, Peter sensed that something was wrong with his memory, and Ivan simply deleted the process of tonight's experiment, so that Peter would only think that he had fallen asleep deeply.
After finishing the mouse, Ivan turned his gaze to his research notes again and nodded in satisfaction.
With the addition of Valerian and a few neutralizing potion ingredients, the duration of the Polyjuice Potion was almost doubled!
The stability is also much stronger than before, and no matter how much he casts a spell to damage Peter, it will not affect the effect of the potion.
This means that the research and development of potions is almost underway, and with the help of Peter Pettigrew, Ivan estimates that he will be able to find the best potion recipe in two or three days at most, and complete the improvement of the compound potion!
At the same time, Ivan felt that he still needed to find an opportunity to confirm what was going on with every rotation of the time turner, and the risk increased by one point...
Thinking of this, Ivan sighed, grabbed Peter, who was unconscious on the ground, and left the room of requirement.
Back in the bedroom, Harry and Ron were still asleep on the bed, and Ivan quietly put the gray-black mouse back in its original place.
......
Early the next morning, a terrible scream suddenly sounded in the closed boys' dormitory, waking up everyone who were asleep.
After only a short nap, Ivan yawned and sat up from the bed, only to find that the sound was coming from Ron's bed.
Ron rubbed his ears, confused, and turned his head to see his pet Spotted curled up in the corner, desperately biting at his pillow.
"Spotted.. What's wrong with you?! Ron was startled and reached out to catch the mouse, but the latter was just like the frightened man who bared his teeth at him...
In fact, when Peter woke up early this morning, he suddenly found that he was sore and weak, as if he had been secretly beaten while sleeping at night...
Could it be Sirius who swooped in last night?
But why didn't he have any impressions?
In Peter's memory, everything was fine last night, he just slept and nothing happened.
Or are you really sick?
Peter looked a little suspicious...
After tossing for a while, seeing that it was almost time for class, Ron no longer cared about his emotions, grabbed it and stuffed it into his pocket.
Ivan watched this scene silently from the sidelines, somewhat strange, he remembered that he had deleted all the relevant memories, why did Peter's reaction still be so big?
But soon, Ivan figured out that Peter had been tossed by him all night, and even though the injury had healed, some symptoms of muscle soreness were always inevitable.
Since it wasn't his Forgetting Charm that went wrong, Ivan was much more relieved, and then got out of bed to wash up and prepare for class.
After working for most of the day, it wasn't until dinner in the evening that Ivan remembered to care about the current situation of the guinea pig, so he turned his head and looked at Ron and said.
"Ron, how is Spotted now?"
"It's terrible!" With a worried look on his face, Ron pulled the blob out of his pocket.
The gray-black rat had lost its former vigor and was lying on Ron's hand, motionless...
"It seems to be really sick, it was like crazy this morning, and it is not in a good state of mind now." Ron looked depressed.
"I've got a bottle of energy tonic here, you can get him to try... It should be better. Ivan thought for a moment, took out a reagent from his wizard's robe, and spoke.
"Good! Thank you so much, Ivan! Ron quickly took the potion and was about to pour it into Spotted's mouth.
The latter was like crazy, desperately resisting, and even scratched Ron's skin...
Although Peter lost his memory of last night under the influence of the Forgetting Charm, as long as he saw the reagent containing the potion, he still had some psychological shadows, and he always felt that there must be something wrong with the potion, not to mention that the potion was given to Ron by Ivan.
Peter was even more reluctant to drink it...
However, he is only a rat now, and even if he tries to resist, it will not help.
Ron was resolute, beckoning Harry to come and help hold Spotted down, but he himself broke Spotted's mouth and poured the potion into it.
Squeak squeak...
Peter's screaming was so terrible that Ivan remembered Peter's screaming that had lasted for a long time last night.
Ivan was very helpless, this potion was just a powerful euphoric that added some tonic effects, and it was not a poison...
After a while, Peter suddenly stopped screaming, and his body relaxed.
Because Peter found the potion to be quite sweet... It doesn't seem to be poisonous.
After drinking, a natural happy mood surged into Peter's heart, his body seemed to be washed, the stubborn expression on his face slowly relaxed, the exhaustion was swept away, and the corners of Peter's mouth brought a smile.
Peter looked around, everything was very pleasing to the eye, and when he saw Ivan, he couldn't help but feel that he had misunderstood him all along.
This little wizard might really care about himself...
