Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way - Chapter 400

c384 As we all know, Hogwarts is the most beautiful place in the world.

As we all know, Hogwarts is the safest place in the entire world.

Regardless of whether others admit it or not, wizards in the British wizarding world, especially loyal fans of Professor Dumbledore represented by Hagrid, all think so.

And judging from the paper data alone, Hogwarts is indeed very safe.

Dumbledore, the most powerful wizard in the world, serves as the principal and personally guards the place. Fox, the only Phoenix who follows wizards in the world, serves as a mobile vanguard. There are four deans who are among the top professors in the wizarding world. Served…

Regardless of whether it is a fake Galaxy Battleship or not, just tell me whether it is strong on paper, right?

With such a powerful wizard guarding it, it makes sense that Hogwarts is the safest place in the world.

As for you saying that Hogwarts often “loses” Defense Against the Dark Arts professors, in 1991 the dark wizards invaded and stole the Philosopher’s Stone, in 1992 the basilisk was rampant, in 1993 the outside was full of dementors, and in 1994 the Six Wizard Tournament A series of dangerous events occurred on…

Accidents, all accidents! Please don’t let the vast number of individual cases affect your view of Hogwarts!

Whether you admit it or not, Hogwarts is still the safest place in the world, just like District 13 for Muggles in North America.

In order to maintain the title of the safest place in the world, Professor Dumbledore can only work harder——

Professor Dumbledore has always had a good habit of using the principal’s authority to inspect the Hogwarts castle every once in a while to ensure the safety of the school.

And every time he tested it, Professor Dumbledore could detect the magical traces of the curse that Voldemort had set for the Defense Against the Dark Arts course.

The curse was simple: no one could hold the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor for more than a year.

The content of the curse is simple, but the method of achieving it is not.

After all, a bad mood can prevent a wizard from being a professor, and permanent amnesia or a twisting of the neck 360 degrees to the right can also prevent a wizard from holding this position, right?

A few years before the curse first appeared, Defense Against the Dark Arts professors could resist the curse and did not change them every year.

These lucky people may teach for five to six years before they become bored with teaching for various reasons and resign due to psychological problems.

But in the middle period, when the curse becomes more powerful, it becomes difficult for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor to survive a year.

Fortunately, most of the professors at that time just had more serious psychological problems, such as not adapting to the naughty and lively students, so they resigned within just one year.

But now, the situation is very bad… The specific situation can be referred to previous years. Professor Quirrell and Professor Lockhart in Hell say hello to you. If Lupine and Moody hadn’t stopped quickly, they would have ended up in the hospital. .

Professor Dumbledore was powerless to do anything about this phenomenon.

At first, when this curse did not cause much harm, its magic was also extremely mild, so Dumbledore, who was not experienced enough at the time, was not aware of it.

It was not until the curse grew that Professor Dumbledore discovered its existence.

But by that time, he no longer had the ability to lift the curse——

This curse has been completely bound to the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts and Voldemort’s life, and Professor Dumbledore’s authority as principal cannot do anything about it.

And just tonight, Professor Dumbledore suddenly noticed that the fluctuations of the curse seemed to become stronger at a certain moment.

“Strange, is it my imagination?” Professor Dumbledore muttered to himself, standing up from his chair.

The elder wand suddenly appeared in his hand. Professor Dumbledore waved it gently, and the silverware on the table made a “ding-dong-dang” sound.

“It seems that it is urgent to solve this curse.” Professor Dumbledore stared at the white mist spitting out from the silverware.

“It just so happens that now Severus has completely gained Tom’s trust and has become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.”

“And Harley’s magic skills are already so strong now… and there are Horcruxes…”

…………

Harry didn’t know yet that Professor Dumbledore was planning to use child labor again. If she found out, she would definitely say… well done.

Harry has been interested in the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course for a long time.

However, Professor Dumbledore did not go to Harley immediately, and Harley was also worried about another thing——

That means the Ordinary Wizard Level Examination is coming.

The exam itself is not difficult for Harry. Even the most metaphysical divination class, the witch can easily complete it with a magic mirror.

But the difficulty is not here, but with Hermione.

Hermione had been chattering crazily in Harry’s ears from the first night, and even seemed a little restless.

And by the next morning, after taking the initiative to assist Professor McGonagall in distributing the class schedule, Hermione’s worry and anxiety almost filled the entire auditorium.

“Today is really busy. Two History of Magic lessons, two Potions lessons, two Arithmancy lessons and two Defense Against the Dark Arts lessons.”

Hermione looked at the class schedule and quickly made plans.

“This year is still O.W.L.S. The professors will definitely make the classes more difficult…”

“I don’t know Professor Slughorn’s teaching style yet. There is no way to conduct targeted previews.”

“What are you worried about?” Harry looked unconcerned, “How can it be difficult for my Hermione to take this kind of course?”

“You learned all the seventh grade knowledge last semester.”

“This is different,” Hermione shook her head vigorously, “Learning knowledge and being able to pass it in the exam are different concepts!”

“It seems that I need to optimize my self-study schedule. I have to go to the library tonight.”

Looking at Harry still buttering his bread slowly, Hermione suddenly reached out and pinched Harry’s face fiercely:

“You can’t be so careless. This year is the most important year for us!”

“What courses we can take in the advanced class and what career we can choose in the future are closely related to this exam!”

“Harry, don’t think that just because you won the Magic School Potions Championship, the Six-wizard Competition, and the International Wizarding Duel Competition, you can take the exam lightly…”

Hermione quickly entered the state and began to criticize Harry wildly.

The Gryffindor students nearby were so frightened that they moved their benches, trying to get as far away from this place of right and wrong as possible.

It would be better to leave those heart-wrenching words that Hermione said to Harry himself. They are just innocent ordinary students and should not bear such pain.
