Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way - Chapter 402
c386 A toad that is not human inside or out
Although there was a small incident earlier, the bell has not yet rung, so the class still has to continue.
In the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, Umbridge’s face was filled with sadness.
At this time, she was pouting her fat lips vigorously and sitting in the last row of the classroom aggrievedly.
If this kind of aggrieved expression were placed on Harley, it would definitely be extremely tempting and attract a lot of attention in an instant.
At Backlund’s ball where aristocratic ladies and young ladies gather, Harry will instantly become the center of attention.
And when facing these underage wizards who are ignorant about many things, she will definitely be surrounded by a large circle of people, whether they are boys or girls, who will come to care.
But if this expression is placed on Umbridge… the students will only be disgusted and want to vomit, and want to spit out the “essence of beauty”.
How old are you and what are your conditions? Are you still pretending to be young here? Isn’t it disgusting? Do you really take the compliments from those flattering staff at the Ministry of Magic seriously?
When Umbridge felt good about herself and sat down in the last row, her surroundings were instantly cleared, which was even more effective than a barrier spell.
Those grades were all at the bottom of the grade, and the little wizard who usually liked to sit in the last row consciously slipped to the front.
After all, when Umbridge came over with bared teeth, she endured the pain and showed them what she thought was a beautiful smile.
That kind of expression was still too cruel for these children who were just fifteen years old.
Sit a little further forward, it’s better than sitting with pink toads and making yourself sick.
Umbridge, who occupies the entire last row, has a thick pink notebook spread out in front of her, as well as several quills of the same color, which fully proves that poor students have more stationery.
Of course, she did not write down what Professor Snape said at all, but rubbed the back of her head with a look of pain on her face.
I don’t know when a big bump had bulged out of that curly hair. The big bag was a strange deep purple color, and there seemed to be pus flowing inside, which made it particularly oozing.
Umbridge used all the magic she could think of, but still couldn’t eliminate the bag.
Professor Snape firmly stated that he was just demonstrating Defense Against the Dark Arts to the students and “just happened” to hit Umbridge. He used the most commonly used stun spell.
This unpredictable change in Umbridge must be because of something wrong with her.
So it’s impossible for him to help break the curse. In a word, it wasn’t caused by his spell. Why should Professor Snape help break the spell?
As for wanting magic potions for treatment? I’m a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Why do you come to me with questions like this about potions?
Umbridge was quite indignant about this, but did not dare to speak out.
After all, she carries a curse from Voldemort. Umbridge is afraid that if she gets a little arrogant and attracts Dumbledore, she will have nowhere to cry.
Moreover, she had a vague suspicion that it was Voldemort’s spell on herself that caused this change.
With something in her heart, Umbridge could only admit that she was unlucky.
Professor Snape naturally doesn’t care what an insignificant bug like Umbridge thinks of him.
At this time, he still looked indifferent, carefully analyzing the pictures on the wall for the students, and waving his wand from time to time to summon a mouse to conduct on-site experiments on some less dangerous spells.
It was obvious that Umbridge wanted to express some unfriendly views on this teaching method, but she did not dare to speak.
The Gryffindor and Hufflepuff little wizards sitting below were all smiling.
I really didn’t expect Professor Snape to be so straightforward and give that disgusting toad a lesson!
For little lions and little badgers, eating melons and other things is really enjoyable!
…………
The fact that Umbridge was severely beaten by Professor Snape when she entered the classroom for the first time caused quite a commotion in Hogwarts.
After all, more than a thousand underage wizards were locked up in a castle, and there were no entertainment activities. The most they could do was play wizard chess in private, and they could only go to Hogsmeade every few weekends.
In this situation where grass is growing on everyone’s body, all kinds of gossips full of bad taste have naturally become the favorite programs of the little wizards.
Under normal circumstances, a piece of gossip that just appeared in the afternoon would be spread throughout the school in a completely new version by dinner time.
Tonight’s gossip spread faster than in previous years, and at the same time it became more outrageous.
Before eating, Harry also heard Susan and Hannah telling others about Professor Snape’s easy move to kill a toad.
After dinner, Harry heard the first-year wizards describing to their friends how Professor Snape used various spells to hang Umbridge in the classroom and whip her.
Their confident looks made Harry suspect that his memory was wrong.
This news is simply outrageous!
It seems that Professor Snape is still unpopular, so everyone is trying their best to make Professor Snape and Umbridge confront each other.
It would be best if Professor Snape was caught and expelled by Umbridge, and then Umbridge was sent to St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries by the angry Professor Snape and needed to leave Hogwarts forever.
If that’s the case, it would be perfect!
However, Umbridge did not have a direct conflict with Professor Snape as the students had hoped, and she no longer even attended Defense Against the Dark Arts.
Even Umbridge never stepped foot into the underground classroom again, and would only linger at the top of the stairs at most.
This gave Umbridge another nickname of “weak toad” in addition to the nickname “Pink Toad”——
The Weasley twins spent just one night uncovering Umbridge’s past glorious deeds at Hogwarts and focusing on her Slytherin identity.
It can only be said that this nickname is also deeply loved by Gryffindor House. It is a black and white nickname, which not only hits Umbridge but also disgusts Slytherin.
This made the little snakes in Slytherin extremely angry. Coupled with Umbridge’s conflict with her dean and subsequent cowardice, the little snakes wanted to expel her from the hospital.
Umbridge also felt that she had been wronged, and she really wanted to confront Professor Snape head-on.
Anyway, he had the legal reason given by Fudge, so Dumbledore couldn’t target him.
Could it be that as a dignified senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic, with Voldemort’s assistant behind him, he would still be afraid of a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?
On the night of the conflict, as soon as she returned to her office from the campus hospital, Voldemort tortured her remotely——
Snape was a senior Death Eater, so he naturally knew Umbridge’s identity. He decisively filed a complaint first, accusing Umbridge of reckless actions that might destroy his “spy” career.
So the pink toad, who had been tortured by the Cruciatus Curse for half an hour, remembered the order to stay away from Snape at the cost of eternal scars on his mind.
And Umbridge also stayed quiet for a while very obediently, and did not do anything too active in the next week.
…………
On the weekend night of the first week of school, Hermione didn’t go back to her dormitory very late because she had to discuss a thesis on arithmetic divination with Professor Victor.
Harry, who was alone, had no daily recreational activities, so he chose to finish washing up early and lay down on the bed.
There is also a large yellowed book spread out on her pillow, which records the ancient magic of “Red Loyalty Curse”.
Unfortunately, before Harry could read the first word, he felt his head sinking.
“Fox, be careful, my hair has just been washed.” Harley said calmly without raising her head, but her voice was inexplicably full of intimidation.
Fox trembled with fright, jumped down and stepped on the book.
“Hey!” Harley pinched the back of Destiny’s neck and lifted Fox up.
“Fox! This is a hundred-year-old antique found in Sirius’ family library!”
“If you dare to destroy this precious book, I will ask Professor Dumbledore to deprive you of your honey candies for a month!”
Fox suddenly trembled with fright, whined obediently, and at the same time flew to Harley’s shoulder, rubbing it hard to please.
“So what’s the matter with you? Professor Dumbledore didn’t give you candy, so you came to my place to look for food?”
After giving Fox a headache, Harley asked softly.
Fox shook his head quickly, obviously not daring to speak ill of his master, and at the same time made a high and low chirp.
“Professor Dumbledore wants to come over to me?” Harry couldn’t help but rub her temples, “Please, does he have no sense of time?”
“It’s so late, I’m ready for beauty sleep!”
Fox glanced at the books and thick notebooks in front of him, and couldn’t help but let out a mocking cry of joy.
“Oh, this is just for fun before bed.” Harley noticed Fox’s performance, but her expression did not change.
“What? Do you have any objections?”
Seeing that little Phoenix started to shrink back and pretend to be pitiful, Harley stopped teasing Fox, and just looked full of sadness.
“Oh, the principal is so energetic. It seems that he will be busy again tonight.”
…………
A moment later, Harley appeared in the principal’s office with Fox’s assistance.
Professor Dumbledore was wearing the woolen pajamas that Harry had knitted last year, and the woolen nightcap that Harry had knitted the year before. He was half-lying on a chair, showing off to the portraits on the ceiling.
And several old men were blowing their beards and staring, obviously very angry with Professor Dumbledore.
After seeing Harley’s arrival, the old principals became accustomed to it and had no intention of pretending.
Only Professor Dumbledore still cared a little about his dignity as a teacher and hurriedly sat upright.
Harry looked at the ceiling, at his hat, then at the opened jar of cockroaches and the dancing black cockroach candies in the glass jar. He didn’t say anything, just shook his head and sighed hard. tone.
But it can only be said that Professor Dumbledore is worthy of being the principal. He did not blush or breath, and coughed twice, as if nothing happened:
“Harry, you’re here.”
“Yes, I’m here.”
“You shouldn’t have come.”
? ? ?
Harry looked at Professor Dumbledore with a confused face, feeling offended.
Didn’t you send Fox to the girls’ dormitory in the middle of the night and drag me out of bed?
Why did I become someone I shouldn’t have come to?
“Ahem, sorry.” A hint of embarrassment appeared on Professor Dumbledore’s face, and he raised the book in his hand.
“Gellert has been really bored recently and is obsessed with Muggle novels from the East, and he recommended them to me.”
“It turned out that I was a little addicted to watching it, and I couldn’t help but imitate a part of the dialogue just now.”
Harry’s face was full of confusion, but thinking about Professor Dumbledore’s character of being careless about trivial matters, he could only sigh and actively changed the subject.
“So Professor, you called me here in the middle of the night just to let me cooperate with you in acting out a plot in the novel?”
“Of course not.” Professor Dumbledore’s expression quickly returned to seriousness.
He stood up from behind his desk and pulled out an ancient box from the shelf.
Professor Dumbledore pulled out a thin booklet from the box, with a line of small words written on it:
“Hogwarts Professor List”
“Roster of Defense Against the Dark Arts professors during Albus Dumbledore’s tenure”
“Take a look at this first.” Professor Dumbledore nodded helplessly at Harry.
“Don’t look at me like that. I haven’t been cast under a powerful forgetting spell, and I won’t have any sequelae.”
Harry then turned his attention back to the roster in his hand and quickly looked through it.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
In the first part of the roster, a name was changed only after five or six pages, but in the middle, it was basically changed on one page, and the reason for resignation was either depression or mental weakness.
By the last dozen or so pages, very few of the wizards on the roster had died well.
The most outrageous reason for the professor’s death that Harry had ever seen was that his wand was blown away by a poisonous tentacle in the Forbidden Forest, and then he was gored to death by a Tebbo warthog!
Damn it, can I be a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor with this kind of ability?
When Harry turned to the last few pages, some familiar names appeared on them: Quirinus Quirrell, Gilderoy Lockhart, Lime Slupin, Alastor Moody, And…Severus Snape.
The first two have died, and their deaths were extremely miserable. Thanks to their high magic resistance, the latter two managed to save their lives.
As for Professor Snape, he only had the first week of teaching on his resume.
Harry returned the list to Professor Dumbledore and couldn’t help but sigh.
This is not a roster, it’s simply the God of Death’s army!
