Harry Potter’s Defense Professor
Chapter 398: Applying for an Auror (Part 1)
Lockhart let out all his anger and felt much more comfortable. After listening to Sirius' words, he subconsciously looked at Teddy, who was being held by Tonks, and stared at him with big eyes, not looking frightened.
Exhaling, Lockhart leaned on the back of the chair and sat down, grabbed Hermione's hand that he had thrown off just now and said the last sentence: "I'm sorry, Jasmine, I know what I did was a little presumptuous, but I've made up my mind .As for whether Pandora is willing to marry me, that is a matter between the two of us. Please don’t make things difficult for me—one thing please rest assured, no one I marry will touch your daughter!”
"Professor Lockhart, don't be angry, if Sister Pandora doesn't want to marry you, I will marry you!" Gabriel said the first sentence since the meal. Liven up the stiff atmosphere.
Tonks burst out laughing: "Gabriel is so young that she is anxious to find a good husband."
"Kids, don't talk nonsense!" Fleur stretched out her hand and patted her sister's head. Lockhart's outburst didn't frighten the proud woman who had seen the world at all: "Hmph, the Minister of Magic is so majestic!"
"No...not right—what do you mean, why am I an exception!" Ginny was being confused by Lockhart's seemingly reasonable and imposing lines, and suddenly realized that she was in his last sentence. The words fell to the ground, and he shouted dissatisfied in an instant: "I am also a witch! I also want to—"
Arthur quickly stopped Ginny's next words with his eyes, because Jasmine looked at his daughter with murderous eyes, and if she continued to speak, it would turn into domestic violence.
"Well, you have made up your mind, well, I don't care about it, whoever you want to marry," Mrs. Weasley said sullenly, "but please see what people outside are saying about you now!" She stood Get up and go back to your room.
"That's because I killed a few Death Eaters, not because of polygamy!" Lockhart looked at her back and explained helplessly, knowing that he had offended Mrs. Weasley this time.
But so what.
"Why is Sister Pandora unwilling to marry Professor Lockhart?" Gabriel asked stammeringly in English.
"She will!" Lockhart drank another glass of wine, realizing that he was indeed a little drunk. He squeezed Hermione's hand tightly. "It just needs a process..."
——
Although he drank a lot of wine, when the sun shone through the windows of the old house the next day, Lockhart was woken up on time by Hermione beside him. Downstairs in the dining room, Harry and Ron had cleaned themselves up. Looks like they're in good spirits - they're ready to be a "glorious" Auror.
"Good morning, Professor." Harry and Ron greeted him.
"Good morning, Professor Lockhart." Gabriel also said sweetly.
"Good morning." Lockhart said lightly. Gabriel had the same amazing beauty as her sister Fleur, but she didn't have Fleur's outspokenness and arrogance. It's really endearing.
"Hurry up and have breakfast, we'll go to the Ministry of Magic together later," Arthur said.
Mrs. Weasley didn't come out to make breakfast, and she was obviously still angry. Fortunately, there were not many people living in this house who could make breakfast, so they didn't have to worry about having nothing to eat. After eating, the group left the house in a mighty manner and headed to the Ministry of Magic collectively. Gabriel also clamored to go to the British Ministry of Magic, so Bill took her with her.
The headquarters is not far from the Ministry of Magic, even if you use Muggle transportation, it only takes more than an hour, let alone the Knight bus. After the number of wizards in London increased greatly. The Ministry of Magic has expanded the size of the Knight Bus, adding many more buses.
After a strict inspection, the group entered the Ministry of Magic, and the people who worked here left separately, while Lockhart led the trio of salvation to the Auror application office in the lobby.
"When I signed up for the Aurors, Crazy Eye hired me, and then he brought me in." Lockhart said as he walked, "To get into the Aurors, you must first pass the basic courses. Of course, now the The rules have been lifted for the time being, or—” He squinted at Harry and Ron,
"It's really only Hermione who can be an Auror."
"Isn't there a professor here? The Minister of Magic, tell me..." Ron said with a smile.
"That's what you say. But your thinking is not very positive." Lockhart shook his head. "The first step in entering an Auror is a loyalty test. It's loyalty, but it doesn't mean loyalty to the Ministry of Magic. It's to ensure that the wizard you apply for is not from some dark wizard or spy from the opposition. In addition, there must be no Wizards with extreme tendencies, such as looking down on Muggles, hating goblins and so on... Actually, I don’t like non-human creatures like goblins, but they can still be selected to a certain extent without strong hostility.”
"How to detect it?"
"An Auror who holds a position above the captain must perform Legilimency on the applicant," Lockhart said. "If the other party has practiced Occlumency before being selected, a scene must be planned... If it is still No problem, just pour Veritaserum."
"Planning a play?"
"Before I applied to the Aurors, I taught myself a bit of Occlumency out of interest," Lockhart said. "Mad-Eyes can't secretly perform Legilimency on me, but I can't force-you know, Occlumency If the technique is forcibly broken, it will cause damage to the brain."
"Um."
"When I chatted with Mad Eye, I thought I had been accepted, but that night," Lockhart recalled: "I was captured by the Death Eaters."
"Abducted?" The three young men immediately looked surprised.
——
"I was tied up in a small dark room, tortured, poured cold water, and all kinds of torture." Lockhart said, I really don't know how I persisted at that time, maybe it was really passionate when I was young? "They asked me to promise to provide them with Auror's action data and other Auror's data during my tenure as Auror..."
"You definitely didn't say yes, but how did you escape?" Hermione asked with wide-eyed eyes. "Could it be that these Death Eaters—"
"Of course I didn't agree. At that time, I thought that if I agreed, I would be branded with the mark of the dark devil." Lockhart laughed: "I was ready to be brave, and then they used Gallon, beautiful women, powerful black magic and even Eternal life came to tempt me, and I gritted my teeth and refused to let go. It was not until they brought my parents before me... I finally gave up resisting and agreed to their request."
"Isn't it?" Harry asked, "But I heard that the professor's parents hid in the United States, did you agree to the Death Eaters as spies..."
"After I promised them for my parents," Lockhart said with a wry smile, "my mother stood up, poured me a cup of Veritaserum, and asked if I really didn't know they were Aurors..."
Ron looked surprised: "The professor's parents are Aurors? No wonder the professor is so powerful!"
"Don't be unconvinced if you say you are stupid. If Gildero's parents are Aurors, why give him Veritaserum." Hermione pretended to be contemptuous. His parents are Aurors in disguise, this is a loyalty test!"
"Right." Lockhart nodded. "Now that the Aurors have lost their elites, it's not so particular—it's been replaced by Veritaserum, but don't be nervous, they won't ask irrelevant questions after drinking Veritaserum, just make sure you are not Death Eater A spy sent by gangsters will do.”
"How could we be spies!"
"There is no exception. Of course I know that you cannot be the spies of the Death Eaters, but if you skip this step, it will be a bit informal."
