Hogwarts vampire professor

In Hogwarts Castle, Harry obviously didn't know that his mentor and friend, the diary he had obtained by chance, had been ordered to get his blood within a month and a half.

At this time, he was worried about tomorrow's Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Hermione, you are the smartest among us. Can you make a guess about what tomorrow's Defense Against the Dark Arts class will be like?" Harry sat on the sofa in the Gryffindor common room, frowning. Look at Hermione who is writing furiously next to her.

"If you're asking about Defense Against the Dark Arts, then I'm not the smartest one, Harry." The little witch with messy hair said without raising her head, "You are the number one in Defense Against the Dark Arts! "

It could be seen that Hermione was still a little unhappy that she didn't get first place in all subjects, especially because that person was Harry who didn't do his homework well all day and kept messing around with Ron.

"No, Hermione, my score in the last exam was just a coincidence, you are the smartest one!" Harry said to the little witch flatteringly, lying on the table.

Speaking of this, he thought of the diary that taught him lessons.

‘Speaking of which, it seems that I haven’t seen Tom in the past two days? ’ Harry was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had accidentally dropped the diary somewhere.

Harry was about to go find Diary Tom and ask him if he had any thoughts on Defense Against the Dark Arts.

At this time, Ron came over from the stairs on the other side of the lounge.

"Hermione, I brought you the book you asked for!" He handed a book to the little witch who was busy writing with a face full of hospitality. "Look, those magical animals that Hagrid told about What is it?"

Harry stopped the steps he took and looked at the book in Ron's hand.

The cover of this book is dark green as a whole, painted with some golden patterns, and seven glittering words "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" are written in the upper middle.

"This is the work of Mr. Newt Scamander. If we take the Care of Magical Creatures class in our third grade, we will most likely use this book." Hermione took the book and told Harry and Ron The two explained.

She then showed an expression of admiration, "This book contains almost all the magical animals that can be seen in the wizarding world. I really don't know how Mr. Scamander did it!"

"Wait, Hermione." Ron looked a little confused, "You mean... this is a third-grade textbook, but you have read it before?"

"Yeah, Hermione, we're only in our second year!" Harry agreed.

"What are you thinking about, you two." Hermione rolled her eyes at the two of them, "I finished reading this book before the first grade started. I haven't read it for a while and I can't remember some of the content, so I need Ron's help. I borrowed one from the library."

Harry: "..."

Ron: "..."

"Okay, don't just stand there, come and take a look at this magical beast!" When Hermione turned to a certain page in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", her eyes suddenly lit up and she waved to Harry and Ron. , "The name Hagrid mentioned yesterday is Hinkpunk."

Harry and Ron came closer and saw a magical animal in the book holding a lantern and hopping on its only leg.

"Hinkpunk is a short, one-legged magical creature with a blue, gray or white smoky appearance. It likes to pretend to be helpful, carrying a lamp to illuminate travelers at night, thereby luring them away The original path enters dangerous swamps or wetlands..."

Hermione looked at the notes in the book and read out the characteristics of Hinkpunk.

"Hey, does this magical animal like Xinkpunk just lure others into danger?" Ron asked with some disbelief, "It doesn't seem to have much attack power, right?"

"That seems to be true." Hermione nodded, her messy hair swaying, "As long as we pay a little attention in the wild, there is a high probability that we will not be put in danger by Xinkpunk. among them.”

"But... this seems to be different from what we imagined?" Harry showed a puzzled expression, "Just now we were guessing how Professor Dracula would torture us - Neville guessed that he would torture us... Bring a fire dragon to the classroom and let us fight the fire dragon!"

"Harry, Professor Dracula is a good professor. He will not let us face an enemy that is impossible to deal with!" Hermione said angrily.

"Um..." Ron was interrupted and silently retorted, "Hermione, do you think it's possible... Professor Dracula himself is someone we can't possibly deal with..."

Hermione's tone paused, and she was speechless for a moment.

"Ahem, Hermione, let's quickly find out what the other magical creature Hagrid spilled is." Harry covered his mouth and suppressed a laugh and said, "What is that magical creature called...Grinder?" Wo right?"

"It's Grindylow, Harry." The topic returned to magical beasts, and Hermione regained some confidence and corrected Harry's mistake, "I remember that Grindelwald seems to be the character in the chocolate frog picture, no, It should be mentioned in Professor Dumbledore’s picture?”

Ron thought for a while, then took out a pentagonal blue box from his pocket and opened its outer packaging.

"I just happened to bring a box of chocolate frogs. We can look for Professor Dumbledore's drawings." When it came to things that had nothing to do with study, Ron became interested. "I collected a whole set of chocolate frog drawings before, but unfortunately I left it in the dormitory, I’m too lazy to pick it up now.”

"Ron, how do you make sure that the picture on this box of chocolate frogs is Professor Dumbledore?" Hermione looked at Ron who was unpacking the box with some suspicion.

"There's no way to guarantee it, but the probability is high." Ron took off the outer packaging of the box and then lifted up the pentagonal blue lid. "Dumbledore has the largest number of chocolate frog pictures. Harry and I are the third When we met on the Hogwarts Express, we opened a picture of Dumbledore!"

He took the chocolate frog out of the box and placed it on the table. Harry quickly held down the chocolate frog to prevent it from jumping under the table.

Then, Ron pulled out the pentagonal blue picture from under the frog.

There is a golden frame on the blue picture. In the frame, an old man wearing glasses, white hair, and a long white beard is smiling kindly at him.

"Look! Look what I said, it really is Dumbledore, right?" Ron proudly raised the picture in his hand and proudly showed it to Harry and Hermione.

Hermione snatched the picture from Ron's hand, turned it over to the back, and carefully read the white text on the blue background——

"Albus Dumbledore, the current Headmaster of Hogwarts; recognized as the greatest wizard of our time, Dumbledore's well-known contributions include: defeating the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, and discovering the secret of the fire dragon's blood. For two purposes, he is very effective in alchemy with his partner Nico Flamel, and Professor Dumbledore is fond of chamber music and ten-pin bowling."

The three little wizards didn't know the story behind the so-called "Dumbledore's well-known contribution". They just looked at the picture curiously and were slightly stunned.

"I only discovered now that we didn't have to go to Professor Dracula to ask who Nico Flamel was..." Harry said blankly, "Nicola Flamel's name has clearly been written on Dumbledore. Lido’s chocolate frog picture.”

"But Professor Dracula gave you the opportunity to talk to Mr. Flamel remotely!" Hermione said angrily, feeling very sorry that she did not communicate with the famous alchemist. "Really, you two were in vain. A great opportunity was wasted. If it were me, I would definitely prepare hundreds of questions about alchemy..."

"So Grindelwald is very famous?" Ron asked a little confused, "It is actually written in the chocolate frog picture as 'Dumbledore's well-known contribution'."

"I remember!" Hermione's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard Ron's question, and she pulled out a "History of Magic" from a thick stack of books beside her, "You must not have listened carefully. A History of Magic!”

"Professor Binns mentioned to us in class that Grindelwald is considered one of the most powerful dark wizards in history, and started the global wizarding war fifty years ago..."

"No one except Hermione will listen to the history of magic..." Ron muttered quietly.

Hermione ignored him and turned to a page at the back of the book "History of Magic". On it, a middle-aged wizard with blond hair and blue eyes was smiling wildly at the three young wizards outside the book. With.

If Dracula were to see the image of this wizard, he might be reminded of the blond young man he once saw in the Mirror of Erised, which might make him have a stronger impression of the most famous dark wizard in the first half of this century. interest of.

[By the way, it is currently the best app for reading and listening to books. Install the latest version. 】

However, Harry and Ron were not very interested in the dark wizard who was defeated by Dumbledore. They just wanted to interrupt Hermione's strong curiosity and divert the topic of the history of magic that they were tired of.

"Hermione, have you forgotten our business?" Harry said cautiously, "We are going to look up the information for tomorrow's Defense Against the Dark Arts class and see what we will face."

If it were other subjects, perhaps they would have already found the content of the next class through the textbook.

However, Professor Dracula's Defense Against the Dark Arts class never had any rules. It seemed that he taught it wherever he thought without any plan... It's no wonder that the failure rate of Defense Against the Dark Arts is higher than other major subjects. .

Of course, Professor Dracula is already reliable enough, because the failure rate of Defense Against the Dark Arts in previous years was several times higher than last year!

What makes the little wizards very troubled is that Professor Dracula has published a textbook this year, but this textbook is not for teaching at all. It is full of faults with the book "Dark Magic: Self-Defense Guide", so that The little wizards have no idea which book to read, and they can only leave it up to fate as to what content will be included in the next class.

This made Hermione who wanted to preview her homework very uncomfortable!

Hearing that Harry wanted to study business, Hermione stopped looking at the "History of Magic" in her hand and turned around to glare at Harry helplessly.

It was Harry who mistook Grindylow for the name Grindelwald, which he had seen on a chocolate frog picture before, and the topic went astray!

"The remaining Fantastic Beast is Grindylow. Don't pronounce it wrong next time, Harry!" She said angrily, while flipping back the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" that had just been buried under other books. A few pages later, "Eureka!"

"Grindylow is a green water monster with horns, a dark magical creature. Its body is green, with green teeth and horns on its head. Grindylow has very long fingers. Although these fingers are quite powerful for grasping things, they are easily broken..."

"Hmm... xx level magical animals? Isn't it a bit too low?" Ron looked at the danger level marked in the book curiously and asked, "Hermione, what level is the catnive you have always wanted to raise? Fantastic Beasts? X-level?”

"Cat cats are xxx-level magical animals and are dangerous to a certain extent." Hermione said, "So what I want to raise is only a mixed-race kitten with a certain amount of cat civet blood, not a purebred cat cat. .”

"What?!" Ron's eyes widened in surprise, "A cat is actually a xxx-level magical animal?!"

"Hermione, I beg you, please don't keep a cat. Just consider it for my Scabbers' sake, okay?"

"Ron, tame mixed-breed cats and nives are not dangerous!" Hermione corrected seriously, "And I will definitely feed my cat something cleaner and more delicious to prevent it from eating mice. . You can’t deprive me of my right to raise a cat just because I raise a mouse!”

"Hey! You mean Scabbers is dirty?" Ron asked angrily.

Seeing that the two friends were starting to quarrel, Harry quickly acted as peacemaker and stood between them.

"Ron, Hermione, you are off topic again!" Harry said, "We haven't studied the dangers of Grindylow yet!"

"No need to study, the danger of Grindylow is not too great." Hermione sat down angrily and turned her head to the side, "I don't think Professor Dracula will carry out that kind of devilish actual combat against us. Trained.”

"That's good, that's good." Harry breathed a sigh of relief.

…

Even though Hermione speculated that Professor Dracula would no longer be as ruthless as he was in the first week, the three Harrys were still not sure what they would face in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class the next day.

So the next day, after the first period of herbal medicine get out of class, Harry volunteered to go to the third-year wizard who had the first period of Defense Against the Dark Arts class to ask about the course content.

"Harry, why are you so diligent today?" Ron asked suspiciously, watching Harry quickly pack up the equipment for the Herbology class, "And the things learned in third grade and second grade are different, I feel like the reference won’t be too useful.”

"There is only one year difference between the third grade and the second grade, so there shouldn't be much difference in the content of Defense Against the Dark Arts." Harry quickly put on his bag and rushed to the door of Greenhouse No. 1, " And I happen to know someone who is in their third year in Ravenclaw."

"Wait a minute, Harry." Ron grabbed Harry's backpack from behind, "We can obviously go together. When we return to the dormitory to rest at noon, we can ask a third-year Gryffindor senior to ask questions this morning. Isn’t it enough to just learn something?”

"But I'm still a little panicked. I immediately want to know what we will face in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon!" Harry firmly broke away from Ron's hand and rushed out of the greenhouse door.

Looking at Harry's back as he hurried away, Ron and Hermione looked at each other, looking at each other.

"When did Harry meet third-year Ravenclaw students?" Ron asked blankly.

"I don't know..." Hermione also shook her head in confusion, "I have never seen Harry behave like this."

…

Harry ran all the way, calculating urgently in his mind.

He cleaned up quickly, and Ravenclaw students always like to leave the classroom late, so when he left Greenhouse No. 1, the Ravenclaw students in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom should not have left yet.

Although the greenhouse of the Herbology class is far away from Gryffindor Tower, it is relatively close to Ravenclaw Tower, although it still spans the entire teaching area - the greenhouse is located in the northeast of the square cloister of the teaching area. Ravenclaw Tower is located on the southwest side of the teaching area.

If Harry is fast enough, he can run from Greenhouse No. 1 in the northeast along the north side of the square cloister of the teaching area to the west side, and then climb up from the gatehouse leading to the Quidditch pitch on the west side to the second floor, and then Run south to the stairs near Ravenclaw Tower.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom is located on the second floor near the middle of the east corridor. If Ravenclaw students want to go back to the common room, they will definitely go around the corridor on the south side of the teaching area, just in time to meet Harry.

Harry was betting on his luck that the student he wanted to meet would not go directly to the Great Hall for lunch——

Generally, the auditorium is crowded with the most people when get out of class is over, and the road leading to the auditorium will also be very crowded, so most Ravenclaw students like to go back to the common room to read for a while, and then go to the auditorium to eat...

Finally, all the hard work paid off, and Harry stopped the third-year Ravenclaw student he "knew" at the stairs of the second floor of Ravenclaw Tower.

Walking from the corridor was a very beautiful Asian girl with long, waterfall-like black hair. She was holding several books in her hands, giving her a gentle bookish air.

"Hello... hello, Qiu Zhang." Harry, dressed in rough clothes and with a red face, greeted her, "The only time we met was when Professor Dracula awarded the amulet."

Qiu Zhang looked with some surprise at the boy in front of him, whose hair was blown by the wind and his face was flushed.

"Harry Potter?" She pursed her lips and smiled, "Actually, you don't need to introduce yourself. I think there will be no one here who doesn't know you."

Afterwards, Qiu Zhang smiled politely and looked at Harry with questioning eyes, waiting for him to tell her if he wanted to see her.

"Ah...well, it's nothing serious..." Harry glanced at Qiu Zhang, then quickly looked away, and said shyly, "Our first class in the afternoon is Defense Against the Dark Arts. I'd like to take the liberty of asking, what did you talk about this morning?"

Qiu Zhang nodded lightly, and just as she was about to speak, another voice spoke before her——

"If you want to know what to say, wouldn't you just ask me?"

A silver-haired figure appeared out of nowhere and suddenly spoke.
