Hogwarts: Breaking off the engagement at the beginning and marrying Hermione instead

Chapter 155

This made Braun interested.

"How much are you going to give me?"

"Five percent... ten percent!"

Seeing Brown turning to leave, Lockhart changed his words without hesitation.

As if he was afraid that Brown would ask for more, he hurriedly said:

"That's a lot. I only have 20% left!"

"I want 15 percent!"

"This is impossible!"

Lockhart said angrily.

"I want 15%. Think about it carefully. If I complete this competition for you, won't you make more profit?

When the semester is over, you can just quit and use your Oblivion Charm to publish a few more books.

Then, the rights to those books will all be yours, right?"

Lockhart was a little tempted by what he said, but he still didn't give in:

"What you said is all about the future.……"

"You have no other choice, right?

Either break up and you go to jail because of the Ministry's suspicion.

Or give me 15% and I will clear your name.

Let people know that you are not a useless wizard.

Then spend the remaining months smoothly, resign and leave, and continue to write books to make a fortune.

What choice do you make? The choice is in your hands."

After saying that, he picked up his and was about to leave

"I...promised……"

Hearing the voice behind him, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of Brown's mouth.

The moment he turned around, the smile disappeared:

"Wise move!"

After signing the contract, Braun and Lockhart each received a copy.

Braun blew on the ink on it.

When the signature dried, he put it in his pocket.

He also shook hands with Lockhart, who looked a little reluctant:

"Waiting for your good news, Professor. I promise to help you when the time comes."

……

Although Brown did not know what Lockhart had said to Dumbledore, there was no doubt that the Duelling Club's plan was carried out as planned.

"Have you heard, Braun?

Lockhart, that idiot, is going to hold a duel club!

It's really funny. I don't know why the principal gave him the approval."

Zabini said quietly while sitting next to Braun.

He looked at Lockhart in the classroom with disdain.

"Who knows? Maybe it's just talk. There's no exact time now."

"It might just be another farce that starts off well but ends badly."

I went back to the lounge with Zabini and the others.

I found a large group of young wizards standing in front of the bulletin board.

They were talking about something.

"What happened? What happened?"

Shabini was a lively person. Seeing so many people gathered in front of the bulletin board, he walked over impatiently to see what was going on.

"Lockhart said the club will be held at 8 o'clock tonight in the Defense Against Magic class as scheduled."

A small snake explained to Zabini

"I didn't expect this to be true. I thought Lockhart was just bragging."

"It might be another farce.……"

The little snakes were talking when a man appeared here.

""Haha! Looks like everyone is very happy about my dueling club!"

Lockhart walked in with a big laugh.

No one was surprised that Lockhart could enter the common room.

All professors (abcg) have this privilege. It's just that except for the deans of each college, they usually don't come.

"Professor Lockhart!"

"Good evening, Professor Lockhart!"

"……"

In terms of superficiality, perhaps no other college can compare to the little snakes of Slytherin.

The sneers on their faces turned into respect and admiration the moment they saw Lockhart come in. They even greeted Lockhart constantly, asking about his well-being.

It was as if Lockhart was really an admirable professor.

Lockhart also greeted him readily and enjoyed the false admiration to his heart's content.

"Brown, come with me. Your father has something to send to you.

Let me give it to you by the way."

Lockhart's words dispelled the gazes of some young wizards.

When people came to Lockhart's departure, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

They started to do what they had to do.

The two did not speak along the way.

After arriving at the office,

Lockhart hurriedly said:

"How is it? Are you ready? Oh my God! I really didn't expect that my opponent this time would be Snape!"

Lockhart said anxiously.

Originally, he thought that even if it was a battle, it was just to guide students. With Brown's strength, he should be able to handle it easily.

But he never thought that he would have to fight Snape.

"Professor Snape? What's going on?"

Brawne's face darkened.

He was not sure about dealing with Snape.

Having studied with Snape for a while, Braun knew more about his terror than ordinary people.

If they really fought, he would definitely not be his opponent.

Lockhart grabbed his hair in pain:

""Originally, things were going well. When I went to Dumbledore to explain my idea, he agreed. (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

But who knew Snape was there too.

Maybe he suspected me or he just didn't like me.

Anyway, he was very interested and said he wanted to duel with me to set an example for other young wizards!"

"Did you offend him?"

Brown asked doubtfully. Generally speaking, Snape would not be so idle as to meddle in other people's affairs.[]

Unless that person is extremely disgusting to him, like Harry Potter.

"I, I once said I was good at potions... maybe I could help make them?"

"No wonder!"

Brown slapped his forehead.

Snape had been coveting the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts for a long time.

So he usually didn't have a good face for the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher he trusted, not to mention that this new teacher wanted to take his position.

"What should I do now?"

"What else can I do? Just go for it! But I can't guarantee that I can beat Snape."

"Alas, I no longer expect you to win, as long as the fight isn't too ugly."

Lockhart said pessimistically.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he asked:

"Did you bring the Polyjuice Potion?"

"Of course, it was prepared long ago. And it was not diluted to prevent accidents."

Braun shook the test pipe.

"No dilution? There won't be any problem."

Lockhart looked a little hesitant.

Generally speaking, pure water will be added to dilute the polyjuice potion after it is refined.

One reason is to ensure that the deformation time will not be too long, and the other important reason is to prevent any problems.

This is not alarmist.

Since the polyjuice potion appears in a banned book like"Powerful Potion", it means that it must have its dangers.

And it is a very strong danger.

That is, it is very likely that it will not be able to change back like Animagus.

Or it will take a very long time.

These are still minor problems.

The dangerous thing is to become a half-human, half-cat creature like Hermione.

Hermione is fine because she is the protagonist, but if a normal wizard makes such a mistake, it is very likely that he will be a half-human, half-cat monster for the rest of his life.

There are many cases of such things in the magic world. This is why potions like this usually add more pure water, the purpose is to dilute

"Oh? I didn't expect that you, Professor, actually knew the danger of the original liquid!"

Braun was a little surprised.

Lockhart seemed dissatisfied:

"After all, I have received systematic education at Hogwarts and have been working in the wizarding world for many years.

Don't think so badly of me!"

Brown shrugged and handed one of the potions to him:

"Don't worry, it's okay.

I brought it from home and it has been tested on biological materials."

(Jerry, who was used as a test subject, expressed his frustration)

"Well, the time is almost up. I have prepared the clothes for you."

Lokhat pulled aside the curtain to reveal a set of extremely sexy clothes.
