Struggling to survive at Hogwarts

After the prefect and the others left, the second group to visit Thea and Draco included Theodore, Daphne, and others.

The group had clearly done their research beforehand and knew that Harry, Harry, and his two companions were in the hospital wing, so they weren't surprised and greeted them politely.

Thea was also curious about Pansy's reaction to Hermione. Unexpectedly, Pansy, along with Daphne and the others, greeted Hermione and the others somewhat stiffly.

Thea smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this.

Daphne noticed that Thea was in a good mood, and she became bolder, volunteering to help Thea organize the list of visitors who had just arrived, and also to write a few thank-you letters for Thea.

Thea looked at Daphne with a half-smile for a while, and seeing that the other party still showed no sign of backing down, and then seeing the stiff Pansy beside her, her eyes flickered, and then she smiled and said:

"Daphne really knows me best, but it would be too much work for her to do all these things."

"So... Pansy, do you have time? Could you and Daphne help me write a few replies? Draco and I are about to break our hands from writing!"

Pansy was stunned by the unexpected gift, but luckily Daphne quickly pinched her from behind, and Pansy hurriedly agreed.

Theodore and Zabini felt a huge weight lifted off their shoulders as they watched this scene. After all, Pansy had grown up with them, and they couldn't just watch her be completely excluded from the group by Thea!

"Draco, I heard you cast several spells last night?" Theodore asked curiously.

"That's right! I did it last night..." Draco was very proud when he mentioned this, wishing he could take all the credit for driving away the monster.

Seeing how easily Draco was diverted from the topic, Zabini shook his head. He really was still a young master!

Thea will be hospitalized for a week, and Harry will be hospitalized for three days.

Hermione and Ron also felt guilty for not being by Harry's side that night to fight the monster, so they often came to the hospital wing to visit Harry.

Thea, not wanting to lie in bed all day doing nothing, decided to restart the study group and begin filling in the gaps in Daphne's and others' knowledge.

This made Hermione, the academic star, really restless. She pleaded with Thea to agree to include her as well, and Draco and the others naturally had no objections.

Since Thea had already made it clear that she wanted to recruit Hermione, and given Pansy's experience as a precedent, the others naturally had no choice but to nod in agreement.

When Ron saw that Hermione had joined this study group full of snakes, he was worried that Hermione would be isolated and helpless, so he decided to join in himself and casually dragged Harry along as well.

Thea naturally agreed, as Harry was her original target.

After all, knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle.

Thea had hesitated before about whether to include Harry, but after weighing the risks and benefits, she made a decisive decision.

Anyway, she's only a first-year student and is currently hospitalized. Even if Dumbledore and the others disagree, they probably won't directly break off relations, right? They could just barge in and give Thea a Killing Curse, right?

Anyway, that's how it was. Thea stayed in the medical wing for a week in a state of anxiety, but Dumbledore didn't come looking for her.

Snape, on the other hand, has been looking at me with a gaze that seems to want to slice me into pieces and turn me into potion ingredients lately.

Thea responded: Whatever! You're not going to attack with Avada Kedavra anyway.

However, Thea soon had no time to think about anything else, because exam week was fast approaching.

The arrival of exam week caused anxiety among all the young wizards, and even the Weasley twins temporarily calmed down and devoted themselves to intense studying.

Of course, This does not include Thea.

At a long table by the window in the library, Thea was lounging in a large chair, absentmindedly flipping through a book called "Potions and Magical Elixirs".

"We're only in first grade now. The practical exam mainly consists of: First, a spell exam. You just need to perfectly unleash a few spells from the professor, and Professor Flitwick won't make things difficult for you."

Secondly, regarding the Potions exam, the Potions that Professor Snape taught in class were all at the most basic level and were not difficult at all.

Third, Defense Against the Dark Arts," Thea's expression turned strange, then she continued, "Given the professor's skill, I think Defense Against the Dark Arts should be the easiest exam."

As soon as Thea finished speaking, the expressions of Daphne and the others sitting around her relaxed.

“Thea, what about the History of Magic exam?” Harry asked.

"Professor Binns, the professor of the History of Magic, is a ghost, so the exam format will generally remain the same."

As she spoke, Thea casually picked up the textbook in front of Harry.

Excellent, very new!

Thea couldn't help but glance at Harry, once again doubting her memory. Could this guy really defeat the Dark Lord?

Harry felt a little embarrassed by Thea's gaze and explained, "...It's mainly because History of Magic is too hypnotic..."

Thea glanced at the young wizards around her. "You all think so too?"

The young wizards nodded hesitantly.

Thea said cryptically, "The history of magic is the most interesting subject..."

Then he didn't say anything more and started highlighting the key points for them.

Thea didn't keep the fact that she was forming a study group a secret from anyone. As the end of the semester approached, many first-year students, upon hearing that Thea would be helping the young wizards fill in any gaps in their knowledge, started asking how to join the study group.

Theodore and a few others were also approached. After all, they were all from pure-blood families, and many of the people who came to them were partners of their families. They couldn't just break off relations directly.

So they passed the problem on to Thea.

Thea didn't leave it unresolved; she immediately convened a discussion about whether or not to expand the study group.

After everyone agreed, Thea went to the prefects of each college to ask for their opinions.

The other three prefects also agreed. In their eyes, it was just a study club formed by a few first-year students, and they didn't take it seriously.

Fane and Gemma also heard about this and naturally agreed wholeheartedly. With a few compliments from Thea, Fane even took on the important task of reporting to the dean.

Of course, the study group also secretly added a few pre-selected spots.

The two foxes looked at each other, and both were satisfied.

Thus, with the tacit approval of the professors and prefects, Thea's study group was established.

At the first activity of the study group, Thea generously shared her review methods.

And amidst the admiring gazes of the first-year wizards, Thea outlined the exam scope and highlighted the key points, helping these young wizards shorten the time they needed to review.

Thea felt that the expansion of the study group had gone too smoothly.

But so what?

She simply formed a study group; after all, what student doesn't want good grades?

The weather has been gloomy for the past few days, and Thea feels that this is the prelude to an impending storm.
