Hogwarts vampire professor

"Professor Dracula is really here?" Lee Jordan was a little incredulous, "I thought he was ready to abandon us."

"I knew it!" George jumped up excitedly and high-fived Fred tacitly. "I knew Professor Dracula had made a bet with us that he could teach us until we graduated. He must be reluctant to part with those dozens of gold coins. Galleons!”

"Sure enough, we are the biggest contributors to Professor Dracula's stay!" Fred said equally happily.

Lee Jordan looked at the Wesley twins with contempt, moved a few steps aside, and acted as if he didn't recognize these two shameless people...

As the first Duel Club gathering since the beginning of the new semester, the auditorium was packed with people, rubbing shoulders.

Whether it is the young wizards in the lower grade or the prospective graduates in the upper grade, they have not practiced dueling in the duel club for two months, and now they all miss it.

They spontaneously gathered around the duel stage in the center of the auditorium, looking up at Professor Dracula, who had not listened to his lecture for a long time, with eager eyes.

On the Hogwarts bell tower, the melodious bells rang slowly.

Along with the bell that opened the club, Dracula raised his hands and pressed them down gently.

The noisy discussions, laughter, and voices gradually stopped, and after a while, the auditorium became completely silent.

"Nice to meet you, dear classmates."

Dracula's mellow voice sounded in the center of the auditorium, but seemed to echo throughout every part of the auditorium, allowing the little wizard to hear it clearly no matter how far away he stood.

"You should also know that I left for more than a month before the Christmas vacation." He said softly, "Maybe some people will be surprised, what did I do?"

"I also know that some people may guess, am I getting bored and ready to abandon you?"

Dracula smiled and looked at the little wizards under the duel stage with a gentle expression.

Seeing Dracula's gentle gaze, Lee Jordan and many other young wizards lowered their heads.

They fell into deep self-blame and felt that they should not doubt their professor so much and should have confidence in Professor Dracula.

However, Dracula's next words caught them completely off guard.

"Yes, I just feel bored, and I just want to abandon you!" He said happily.

Lee Jordan and other little wizards: "???"

Does Professor Dracula really want to be so direct?

"Professor, why are you leaving?"

"Professor, what will happen to the Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts after you leave?"

"professor……"

The quiet auditorium became noisy again, and the young wizards were in an uproar. One by one, they asked Professor Dracula why he wanted to leave Hogwarts. Some young wizards who liked Dracula very much cried and begged the professor not to abandon them.

During the more than a year that Dracula taught at Hogwarts, although he sometimes deviated from the textbooks and caught the students off guard with his lecture content; he was sometimes unwilling to correct homework or publish test papers, which made many top students dissatisfied; Sometimes he would lead his students in devil training, which made them extremely painful...

But no one can deny that Dracula is indeed a very qualified professor, and he is also a good professor who does not favor any school because he has not been divided into schools.

Moreover, Dracula is also the first Defense Against the Dark Arts professor to be re-elected at Hogwarts.

If he really left Hogwarts out of boredom, who knows what kind of idiot Dumbledore's next Defense Against the Dark Arts professor will be? What should we do if we find the next Quirrell?

So no matter what grade they are, no one wants Dracula to leave Hogwarts, except for those squeamish little wizards who hate the devil's training.

Dracula stood on the duel stage, looking at the shocked, disbelieving, and resistant expressions of the little wizards below, and listening to the voices of retention and persuasion, a soft smile slowly formed on the corner of his mouth.

"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment." He chuckled, "I have something else to say."

Dracula's voice rang in the ears of every student present, interrupting the commotion in the auditorium.

The little wizards looked up at Dracula's smiling face and slowly became quiet, wanting to hear what Professor Dracula had to say.

"Actually, last semester, when I was still more than a month away from the end of the semester, I did feel a little bored." When the auditorium became completely quiet, Dracula slowly said, "So I gave myself a break. I took a vacation, went to see an old friend, and also met some new friends in the process.”

"I actually gained a lot from this vacation and discovered a lot of interesting things. It is indeed much more interesting than the boring life of lecturing at Hogwarts every day." He said frankly.

When the little wizards in the audience heard this, they all showed worried expressions, fearing that Dracula would say something that would stop him from giving lectures.

"However, those interesting things don't happen every day." Dracula changed the topic, "It may only take two or three days to really encounter interesting things."

"The rest of the time is still a dull and boring life for decades, and it is not even as interesting as watching you guys fight at Hogwarts."

The little wizards in the auditorium were a little confused at first, but then they understood the subtext of Dracula's words, and they all showed expressions of surprise and joy.

"Yes, in a vibrant school like Hogwarts, at least there are new faces every year, new surprises every day, and there are always some little wizards who can make my eyes shine..." Dracula laughed. He said, "Of course, there are things that make my eyesight go dark."

The little wizards laughed knowingly.

Lee Jordan poked the arms of the two twin roommates next to him and asked them in a low voice if they were the two who made Professor Dracula's eyes darken.

Fred and George refuted his "ridiculous" remarks.

"In addition, I also discovered some new things today." Dracula shook his head with a smile, looked at the reactions of the little wizards in the audience, and continued, "In fact, no matter how long you live, there are always some Things we didn’t understand before.”

"So, teaching you lessons while studying on my own is the best life I can think of for myself."

Dracula's speech was not long, but every sentence contained his true thoughts.

He rarely chats with people sincerely like today, let alone speaks the truth to such a large group of young wizards.

The experience during this period did give Dracula some new ideas.

First there was the meeting with Andros. Andros would rather spend his whole life, even the time after his death, in the secret realm on the top of Mount Olympus, just to block the opportunity for the despicable Herbo to do evil and seal it firmly.

This touched Dracula a little.

Later, Newt told Dracula about what happened during the Global Wizarding War decades ago in Castle Dracula, and also showed his enthusiasm for magical animals in front of Dracula.

Newt is almost a hundred years old, but he is still sincere about all magical animals. When he carefully records the characteristics of magical animals in his leather notebook, his expression is really like a child carefully observing the moving ants. Similar.

This also moved Dracula slightly.

In the end, Flamel analyzed the similarities between the black energy of Obscurus and Herbo, and the two of them came to the conclusion that all black magic comes from the same source.

This incident made Dracula know that even though he has lived for more than a thousand years, there are still some things that he has never understood.

So when you are usually bored, can't you find something more meaningful to do? Can't we find the source of all dark energy while we're bored?

The conclusions Dracula and Flamel reached together also made him unsure whether there were any other problems with black magic and dark energy.

If something goes wrong with the dark magic that comes from the same source one day, but the students at Hogwarts know nothing about this form of magic, then they are likely to suffer a disadvantage in this matter.

Dracula cannot accept that his students have no understanding of black magic.

"We are not going to learn how to duel today." There was a smile in his eyes, and he looked at the young wizards in the audience who always gave clear eyes. "I want to give you an impromptu public class on Defense Against the Dark Arts. You want to listen. ?"

The little wizards in the audience were a little surprised at first, and then relaxed slightly.

It's been a long time since I've done Professor Dracula's devil training. If I resume the intensity of training today, I'm afraid I'll end up with aches and pains all over my body. It would be more comfortable to switch to an open class on Defense Against the Dark Arts.

So, the little wizards said in unison——

"Want to hear it!"

"Okay." A wilted smile appeared on Dracula's lips, "In that case, today I want to tell you... what is black magic!"

"Can anyone tell me what black magic is?"

At this time, the little wizards in the audience did not realize the seriousness of the matter. They all looked at Dracula on the duel stage, and the top students even raised their hands high.

"Miss Granger, please tell me."

Dracula pointed at the little witch with disheveled hair who raised her hands high in the audience.

"Dark arts, also known as dark magic, primarily refers to any type of magic used to harm, control, or even kill people and creatures. Most people who practice dark magic are Evil, wizards who practice black magic are called dark wizards."

Hermione recited the definition of dark magic from the textbook very fluently.

"That's right." Dracula praised, "The definition of black magic is indeed that simple. Black magic in a broad sense refers to any magic that may be detrimental to other wizards."

"If the category of black magic is defined according to this definition, then our common magic with control capabilities will be classified as black magic - such as coma spells, petrification spells, binding spells, etc."

"But we also know that these magics with a certain degree of control are exactly what you must learn during school. So, will you be called a dark wizard just because you have mastered a coma spell or a petrification spell? Yet?"

Dracula looked at Cedric of Hufflepuff and teased, "Digory, I know you are quite good at using the coma spell, so do you admit that you are a dark wizard?"

There was joyful laughter from the Hufflepuff crowd.

Cedric smiled and pushed away his roommate who was teasing him, and said loudly to Dracula: "Professor, I will never admit that I am a dark wizard!"

He often came to the office to ask Dracula about various questions, and now he was very familiar with it, so Dracula's sudden teasing did not make him feel embarrassed at all.

"In fact, not only are you unwilling to admit that you are dark wizards, but other wizards in the magical world are also unwilling to admit it." Dracula smiled and continued, "So later, wizards became more aware of black magic. Strict division——"

"I told everyone in the Duel Club that black magic is divided into jinx, hex, and the most vicious curse."

"The spells in these categories can actually cause harm to wizards, so there is usually no objection to being classified as black magic."

"As for control magic such as coma spells, disarming spells, and petrification spells, they were called defensive magic by later wizards. These spells will not cause harm to other people, and at the same time can eliminate the opponent's combat effectiveness."

[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I’ve known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving and before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here ]

"As a result, most control magic is usually removed from the category of black magic." Dracula said.

The little wizards looked thoughtful.

In fact, this knowledge had already been subtly narrated by Dracula in previous duel club gatherings, and most of it could be quickly absorbed and understood by the students present.

So this knowledge is just an appetizer, and the main event is yet to come.

"The Duel Club has been held so many times. You may have understood how to duel and how to defend your opponent's spells." Dracula chuckled.

"But under the restrictions of the professors, you can only use the defensive magic I just introduced to you in the duel. You haven't learned enough to actually deal with black magic - not enough!" Dracula continued, "Therefore, Today I am going to let you have a taste of how dark wizards use magic."

The little wizards in the audience suddenly became interested.

"What? Professor Dracula wants to demonstrate black magic to us?" Ron guessed happily, "Hermione, how do you think Professor Dracula's black magic is used?"

"Um... it shouldn't be any better than a dark wizard, right?" Hermione whispered, "After all, although Professor Dracula is usually not very serious, he is still a decent wizard after all."

"Ahem..." Harry coughed violently.

"What's wrong with you, Harry?" Ron turned his head and looked at his best friend next to him, "Don't you agree with what Hermione said?"

"No, I just choked on my saliva." Harry said quickly.

Because Harry and Riddle had always maintained a good relationship and often asked Riddle to teach him Defense Against the Dark Arts, he also heard some things about Dracula from Riddle.

Harry remembered what Riddle once said to him——

If Dracula's level of black magic is said to be second in the wizarding world, then even Voldemort would not dare to say that he is first...

He glanced at Hermione and Ron, who were still in the dark, and smiled helplessly.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Dracula pressed his hands to make the messy auditorium gradually quiet down. "Before I demonstrate how the dark wizard casts the spell, I will tell you why I did what I did -"

"Spells have many forms, with different magic powers and different ways of casting spells. Theoretically, I only need to teach you the breaking spells for various ordinary spells, that's all."

Dracula did not say what really made him determined to explain black magic, but explained it to the little wizards from other angles.

"Logically speaking, there are many students here who are under the sixth grade. You are still young. I shouldn't have told you what illegal black magic is like, because you are too young now to deal with this set of black wizards." Method of casting spells.”

"But in my opinion, no matter what grade you are in, it is always good to know more about something. The earlier you understand the black magic you have to deal with, the better. If you have never seen something, then how can you know it? How about protecting yourself in front of others?"

"Remember, if a dark wizard wants to cast a black magic on you, he will not tell you his plan in advance. The dark wizard will never cast a spell on you frankly, fairly, and politely."

"Therefore, you must be prepared to deal with dark magic!"

Dracula's eyes swept around the auditorium, looking deeply at the expressions of every little wizard, hoping to see the importance in their eyes.

"Next, comes the part that you are most concerned about... I will show you the most evil black magic. I hope you will watch it carefully." He said in a deep voice.

"These magics may make you feel uncomfortable, but please don't be afraid. I won't hurt you."

Dracula snapped his fingers.

A handsome young man with black hair suddenly appeared on the duel stage, standing right in front of Dracula.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Riddle, who was still in the teaching assistant's office just now, was panicked by the sudden change in the scene before him, so he quickly pulled out his wand and pointed around with a pale face.

The next moment, he found that this was the auditorium he was familiar with, and there were many little wizards around him who were laughing and enjoying his funny performance.

Only then did Riddle realize that this was the scene of the Duel Club, and Dracula was looking at him with a happy smile on his face.

"Professor Dracula?" Riddle looked at Dracula in confusion and silently put away his wand, "What's the matter with calling me here suddenly? Do you need me to cooperate with you in a duel demonstration?"

"I do need your cooperation." Dracula smiled evilly, "But it's not a duel demonstration, but you are required to be a model."

Seeing Dracula's evil smile, Riddle suddenly felt something bad, turned around and wanted to run away.

However, the next moment, Dracula's voice rang in his ears——

"Imperio."
