Faced with Kyle's proposal and the eager looks from his students, Professor Lupin hesitated for a long time before finally agreeing.

"I'll give it a try, if the principal agrees."

Kyle was right; learning another spell was always a good thing, and he had no reason to refuse.

Furthermore, Harry had come to see him about this matter before class today.

Teaching one person is no different from teaching a group.

Furthermore, the Patronus Charm has another characteristic: the light it emits can provide additional feelings of happiness to those around it. In other words, the more people there are, the easier it is to learn this spell.

"But..."

Before the students could cheer, Professor Lupin quickly raised his voice and added, "That depends on whether the principal will agree, and as for the timing, I'm afraid it will have to wait until next semester. I have a lot to do before the holidays."

The students didn't care at all... as long as they could study, that was enough. Besides, there was only a little over a month until the Christmas break, so they could wait that long.

After class, everyone cheered and left the classroom, eager to share the news with more people.

"This is fantastic."

During lunch, Cedric excitedly said, "I've tried to learn this spell, but I just can't seem to get the hang of it. No matter how I try, I can only release a cloud of smoke."

I was thinking of asking Professor Lupin, but it seems I don't need to now. It's just that it will take a while; I'll have to wait another month.

Many others shared his sentiments, and people looked forward to Christmas even more in the coming days, not only for the two-week holiday but also for the upcoming "Patronus Charm Club".

At the end of November, the second Quidditch Match began.

Because Harry's broom was damaged, their rematch with Slytherin was scheduled for the next term, and this time the match would proceed according to the original schedule.

Hufflepuff vs. Ravenclaw.

After replacing half of its veteran players, Hufflepuff's chances of winning the championship have plummeted to the bottom of the four houses.

This can be seen from the number of supporters in the stands.

Kyle glanced around on his broomstick...

During previous matches, the stands were mostly covered with yellow flags representing Hufflepuff, but now only this small section of the Hufflepuff stands remains, looking like an isolated island in a blue ocean.

In contrast, Ravenclaw found two very talented Chaser last year, which made up for the team's last weakness. After a year of training and playing, they have begun to show their potential.

In Gryffindor's territory, Fred and George were waving a large blue flag enthusiastically when they noticed Kyle's gaze. They quickly pulled out a yellow one from behind them and started waving it as well.

But how should I put it... the workmanship of this flag is obviously much rougher, it looks like it was just a piece of old bed sheet that was casually torn off before setting off.

"This discrimination is too obvious," Kyle smirked.

But there was no time to think about that now. He caught the Quaffle his teammate threw to him and started flying it towards the opponent's goal.

This time the Dementor didn't cause any trouble, but the match didn't last very long either.

Twenty minutes later, Cedric, with his excellent cornering acceleration, caught the Golden Snitch before Qiu, securing the final victory for Hufflepuff.

A burst of excited cheers immediately erupted from the stands.

"See that, Harry? Speed on the curves is what truly matters."

Oliver Wood yelled at the top of his lungs, "After the restart, we'll be facing Hufflepuff, and that's what you'll be focusing on in your training from now on..."

Harry nodded without saying anything.

His eyes remained fixed on the Ravenclaw Seeker.

"Her name is Cho Chang, I think... She's a charming girl..." Harry felt his heart pounding.

Harry was particularly excited by her clean and decisive Starfish and Stick when she dodged the Bludger, his face turning bright red.

He felt his heart pounding, and he desperately wanted to say a few words to Qiu, or exchange tips on Seeker.

"When do we go to Ravenclaw?" Harry asked.

"It's still a long way off," Oliver Wood said. "Probably not until March. And I must say, this year's Ravenclaw is a formidable opponent, their Chaser ..."

Oliver Wood went on and on about analyzing the players' situation, but Harry didn't hear a word he said... He didn't even notice Ron tugging at his sleeve.

"March...that's too long," Harry muttered.

He suddenly remembered that Qiu and Kyle were also good friends... maybe he could find a reason to get to know them before the game.

Buying things is a good reason.

Kyle and his friends always manage to come up with some interesting little gadgets. He usually buys them from Fred and George, but it wouldn't hurt to get them from someone else...

On the court, Cedric, who was shaking hands with Qiu, suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Thankfully, there were no Dementor; it must have been my imagination...

"What are you looking at?" Qiu asked.

"It's nothing..." Cedric quickly shook his head.

Qiu released her grip and said, "You won this time, but I definitely won't lose next time."

"I'm waiting," Cedric laughed. "Your team is really strong this year."

This isn't a compliment.

Although they won the game, they were only one hundred points ahead of Ravenclaw.

This means that Ravenclaw was leading them by fifty points before catching the Golden Snitch.

This is the first time Hufflepuff has fallen so far behind in basic points.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. After Harris graduated, the two new Chaser were clearly not able to keep up with Kyle's pace, and in most cases, Kyle could only score by dribbling alone.

Naturally, he became the main target. Throughout the game, the two Bludger were almost constantly hovering around him, and he was nearly knocked off his broom several times.

This situation is exactly the same as what Harris was treated back then.

Afterwards, they went back to the locker room to change out of their team uniforms and walked together toward the castle.

Cedric, walking at the back, looked at Cho, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "By the way, it should be almost time to go to Hogsmeade. How about we go to Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop together? We've never been there before."

"Okay, sure," Qiu said. "Let's also invite Kyle and Kanna..."

"Kyle probably doesn't like tea; he only likes lemonade," Cedric muttered.

"What were you saying?" Kyle, who was walking in front, seemed to hear someone calling his name and turned around to ask.

"We're discussing our next trip to Hogsmeade," Cho said. "Do you know when?"

"Probably around Christmas, I'll go again," Kyle said, glancing at Cedric expression seemed somewhat unnatural.

His intuition told him that this guy had something on his mind.
