And finally they came to numerical part. Ira had revised this topic after the last lesson, when it was told that they would be studying about curse breaking again this term. So she did know the spell of course! Raising her hand up high in the air, she answered, "Arithmos Revelio. Thats the spell finding the associated numbers." And oh yes, Ira remembered that lesson in her first year, when the wrong spell had frozen her and many others. Looking back, that had been a fun lesson. Quote:

Spell. She wasn't even sure, but yeah. "I agree with the Gryffindor Ira, Professor," Kat said. "The incantation is Arithmos Revelio." Hmmm... yeah. Quote:

And...oh, right, class.
Nodding, Kurumi looked down at her notes again for a brief moment. She had brought up the spell last lesson and had been hoping then that they would get to apply it to something - Kurumi like analyzing numbers - but they all THAT had happened and...yeah. "Arithmos Revelio," she said after raising her hand. "And you move your wand down, then up, and finally flick it towards the object." Quote:

Numbers associated with a curse. Little bells were going off in Hannah's head. Maybe she had actually retained something from a previous class. Then it hit her. She knew the answer. She actaully knew the answer. She raised her hand in the air. "Professor, the spell is Arithmos Revelio." She eyed the Gryffindor prefect...of course she would go futher explain something that the professor did not ask. Oh yeah...Hannah was very judgemental of others! Quote:

He was also going to go in to detail about the wand movement, but of course the Gryffindor prefect had gotten to that first.
He quickly scribbled everything down in his notebook. He couldn't really remember WHY they needed to know the numerical base behind spells, but he was sure he would find out soon enough. Quote:

Sierra sat back and listened as the professor went on about how curses related to numbers and how there was a simple incantation used to find the numbers associated with a curse. "That'd be Arithmos Revelio," she said, her hand raised. Not much else to say there. She looked up and waited for the lesson to continue.
Of course Josephina had not expected every student to know the incantation she was talking about, but a fair few of the older kids did remember, which pleased her. "Excellent. Yes, the spell to reveal the numbers associated with a curse is indeed Arithmos Revealo!" "So in numerology, there are 10 single-digit numbers that have individual meanings when they stand alone, but when it comes to Curse-Breaking, we have to pay attention to compound numbers." Something that after the chaldean method last term, they'd surely get now, right? "But instead of us learning the parts of spell numerization like some of you remember from a few years ago, we're going to discuss another, more basic form of curse-breaking which comes in the form of solving cryptograms!" Hadley explained, glad things were moving along finally. "Cryptograms are important to curse-breaking too, which is because .... well, first, what is a cryptogram?"
