Apart from the fifth and seventh-year students taking their O.W.L. Exams and N.E.W.T. Exams, the entire Hogwarts was in a state of relaxation.
Since he didn't need to supervise the O.W.L. Exams and N.E.W.T. Exams, Sebastian's life suddenly became much easier.
Although things at a magic school like Hogwarts were always popping up, at this moment, he could temporarily set aside his busy affairs and enjoy some leisure time for himself.
While Harry and his two friends were chatting by the Black Lake, Sebastian called Luna to his office, preparing to give her one last private lesson before the holidays.
Speaking of Luna, this first-year Little Wizard was undoubtedly a very special existence.
She was exceptionally gifted, born with a unique perception for the mysterious power of Emotion Magic.
Because of this, Sebastian took Luna as his apprentice and often personally taught her about Emotion Magic.
It should be known that Emotion Magic belongs to advanced magic, capable of controlling and guiding others' emotions, and is usually not taught to Little Wizards of this age group.
Its learning threshold is very high; even across the entire Wizarding World, Wizards who can master Emotion Magic are few and far between.
Although he had high expectations for Luna, Sebastian did not rush her teaching, nor did he directly teach her ready-made Emotion Magic.
After all, as a first-year student, Luna's magical foundation was not yet fully established, which greatly limited her performance in Emotion Magic.
Moreover, as the old saying goes, 'Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.'
Throughout this year, Sebastian patiently taught Luna various basic magical runes representing emotions.
He spent nearly a year helping Luna build an incredibly solid foundation for Emotion Magic.
After all, for geniuses, as long as you help them lay a good foundation, they will build tall buildings themselves.
Luna did not disappoint Sebastian's expectations, making rapid progress in learning the various basic magical runes representing emotions.
By the end of April, she had completely mastered all the magical runes.
For the sake of her grades, Sebastian did not disturb Luna in May, instead letting her focus on reviewing for her exams.
It wasn't until the exams were over that Sebastian called Luna over, both to check her learning progress and to teach her a little more about the application of advanced Emotion Magic.
However, as soon as they met, Luna brought Sebastian a huge surprise that left him utterly stunned.
"What? You've integrated the magical rune for happiness into your singing?"
Sebastian was full of questions, unable to figure out how the two could be combined for a moment.
"Yes, Professor Swan," Luna said with a smile, "I was under a lot of pressure from reviewing a while ago, so I went to the Forbidden Forest to play with the Thestrals."
"As if sensing my worries, one of the Thestrals initiative invited me to fly a few laps in the sky on its back."
Sebastian's head started to ache.
Good heavens!
Flying on a Thestral without protection, and without an adult Wizard supervising.
The little one was too brave.
This was a hidden Gryffindor!
No wonder, in the original story, all of Luna's friends were Gryffindor students.
After a moment of thought, Sebastian suppressed the urge to lecture her and asked with a curious expression, "And then?"
"Flying in the sky, I felt incredibly free and wanted to sing, to let the Thestrals feel my happiness too."
"Perhaps it was an emotional inspiration; I naturally combined the magical rune for happiness with my singing, and the Thestrals loved listening to it."
It was that simple?!
Sebastian asked, "Can you now consciously control this fusion of magical rune and song?"
"I think so," Luna said uncertainly, "I'll know if I try."
With that, Luna began to sing a happy children's song widely known in the Wizarding World.
The Wizarding World is full of magic,
Spells fly, laughter rings,
Owl letters soar through the sky,
Hogwarts, quickly board the train!
A small wand held in hand,
A spell uttered, light flashes,
"Wingardium Leviosa!"
Brooms carry joy on the wind.
Chocolate frogs leap onto the table,
Explore the Wizarding World,
Laughter accompanies twinkling stars,
A Wizard's childhood is truly happy!
After listening to the song, Sebastian was so shocked that his mouth hung open for a long time.
This was not just a song!
This was magic disguised as a song!
Moreover, the magical attack within it was extremely subtle; if Sebastian wasn't very familiar with Emotion Magic, he wouldn't have sensed its profoundness at all.
Ordinary people would only find Luna's singing beautiful, and feel greatly pleased after listening, completely unaware that Emotion Magic was at work.
Genius!
No, 'genius' was no longer enough to describe this golden-haired little girl.
In her first year, relying on her unique magical talent, she had forged a path that had never existed in the Wizarding World.
Sebastian was uncontrollably excited; many conjectures instantly appeared in his mind.
He wondered if different musical pieces had different requirements for magical runes representing different emotions.
For example, having Luna sing rock music to evoke passionate emotions in everyone.
Or, singing some sad songs to bring deep sorrow to enemies, dismantling their morale and fighting spirit.
Or, incorporating magic to distinguish friend from foe into her singing, bringing different effects to allies and enemies on the battlefield.
Sebastian desperately tried to rein in his scattered thoughts.
No rush, no rush!
The cultivation path for Luna still needed to be carefully planned; under no circumstances could her talent be wasted.
However, this advantage could be used to change Luna's standing among the students, making more Little Wizards like her.
Sebastian's eyes lit up as he thought of a brilliant idea.
Currently at Hogwarts, apart from the fifth and seventh-year students, students from other years had about two weeks of free time.
Volunteers could be recruited to perform at the End-of-Year Feast.
Luna could also sing a song on stage; this would surely make many Little Wizards like her.
"Luna, would you be willing to sing a song for all the teachers and students at the End-of-Year Feast, to let them all feel your happiness?"
"Of course!" Luna's eyes sparkled; she loved making others feel her happiness.
.....
The atmosphere at the End-of-Year Feast was extraordinarily lively; the Little Wizards were all eating quickly, eager to finish dinner so they could enjoy the upcoming performances.
The various delicacies on the long tables rapidly diminished under the children's assault, the sounds of chewing and clinking plates and cups rising and falling.
Anticipation gleamed in everyone's eyes as they ate, teasing each other and guessing the program's contents.
When the students put down their cutlery, Sebastian stepped forward and gently waved his wand.
The long tables of the four houses stretched, transformed, and connected, forming a massive tiered auditorium.
In addition, a huge stage appeared in front of the audience, looking exceptionally beautiful under the illumination of various magical lights.
The Little Wizards cheered as they took their seats, then waited for the performances to begin.
Fred and George became the hosts of the evening, and under their humorous and witty hosting, the Little Wizards who signed up gradually took the stage.
There were singers, dancers, acrobats, and even stand-up comedians.
The entire performance proceeded amidst bursts of laughter and applause; the acts on stage were more spectacular than the last, and the Little Wizards fully unleashed talents and charms they usually didn't display.
Luna was the last to perform, and her singing directly brought the entire feast to its climax.
The Little Wizards had never imagined that this oddly dressed Witch had such a beautiful singing voice.
Now it seemed that it wasn't that she dressed oddly, but that everyone else didn't understand fashion.
The feeling of happiness was so strong that even after Luna's performance ended, they were reluctant for her to leave the stage.
The Little Wizards kept shouting.
"Luna, your singing is too wonderful!"
"One more song!"
"Luna, we love you (づ￣3￣)づ╭❤～"
