Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

The legend of the secret room is still circulating in the castle, but Sherlock is not in the mood to pay attention. Those students guess who the real Slytherin descendant is, and whether anyone suspects anything about themselves.

In fact, before Halloween, in mid-October, he had been indulging in the Hogwarts library all day.

After seeing the amount of books in Hogwarts, Sherlock really understood that the original owner's study was nothing at all.

Compared with the magic books here, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a drop in the bucket.

The mysteries of magic are treasures that everyone who is thirsty for knowledge cannot refuse.

This is a set of natural laws unique to the abnormal world, and mastering this law and using it is actually not much different from learning natural science in the normal world.

The two are only different in form of expression.

This is Sherlock's greatest impression of magic and science since he was in touch with magic for two months.

Studious, erudite, and equally promising in any world.

Therefore, in addition to completing his job as a professor, he spends most of his time in the library.

During the seven school years at Hogwarts, students are expected to learn a lot.

Under normal circumstances, let alone returning to the original master's level of magic, even if Sherlock wanted his level to be comparable to that of a normal seventh-year graduate, it was not something that could be done in a short period of time.

Even if he is a magical genius, it will take at least two or three years.

Fortunately, the original owner's body was already familiar with the use and release of most spells.

As long as Sherlock simply practiced those spells that were unfamiliar to him a few times, he would naturally reach the point where practice makes perfect.

But the breadth and depth of magic is not only reflected in spells.

The muscle memory left by the original owner can only help him quickly and proficiently cast spells. The understanding of theoretical knowledge and magical knowledge such as transfiguration, herbs, potions, and astronomy still need Sherlock to learn by himself.

Fortunately, his learning comprehension ability is not bad.

Before crossing, he was a high school graduate in the field of science. Even in the magic world, for wizards, learning knowledge is still the main way to gain power.

From July, when he first crossed into this world, to the beginning of November, Sherlock has basically mastered all the spells of the original owner in four months.

There are only a few special ones that can't be tried easily, such as Apparition, and those that do not rely solely on spells and spellcasting skills, but require special emotions to succeed, such as God's Guard.

These two types of spells are relatively advanced. Sherlock has not dared to try it for the time being. In a castle like Hogwarts, where the whole school is full of anti-apparition magic, he has no chance to try Apparition.

Sherlock tried the Patronus Spell once, but the tip of his wand only had some silver threads of light, but no specific Patronus was formed.

But he seriously doubted that even the original owner probably hadn't really summoned his Patronus.

This kind of magic requires a lot of positive emotions to be successfully used, and it is strange that an autistic person like the original owner can use it.

Magical potions, herbs, and astronomy, these theoretical magical knowledge will be put aside for now.

Sherlock was confident that he could reach the level of a normal adult wizard with the two most important spellcasting methods for wizards - spells and transfiguration.

Even relying on the accumulation of the original owner, it may be a lot stronger. After all, defensive magic like the Iron Armor Spell is not something that any adult wizard can learn.

After confirming that he has almost mastered the conventional magic spells, he did not continue to expand to learn knowledge such as potions.

After meeting with Slughorn, at least one point of view he agreed with.

Even though Dumbledore, the most famous white wizard in the wizarding world, sits here, Hogwarts is still a very dangerous place.

Now that a student has been attacked, it means that the secret room has been opened and the basilisk has been released.

Although Sherlock really wanted to resolve this crisis ahead of time, he really didn't know where the entrance to the secret room was and who the Slytherin descendant who opened the secret room was.

If he knew, he would have planned a suitable reason and excuse first, and then told Dumbledore the whole thing.

At that time, Dumbledore will worry about the specific things, and Sherlock is carefully waiting to deal with the "big catastrophe" taught by his Defense Against the Dark Arts class, isn't it?

It's a pity that he hasn't read the original book and movie of the secret room chapter, just listened to the up master's explanation of the plot, and didn't remember much useful information.

So now if he wants to ensure safety, he can only rely on himself.

Even if Sherlock's body is a mixed-race, who knows if that basilisk will have a convulsion one day, thinking that he is like a flower and a jade, delicious and delicious, and suddenly attack him?

Only when you can ensure your own safety is the most reassuring.

Therefore, Sherlock's next focus is still to focus on various practical spells and the skills to strengthen his Transfiguration.

It's just the magic level of a normal adult wizard, there is really no way to make people feel safe in this dangerous castle.

If he wanted to go a step further, Sherlock would not only be obsessed with ordinary magical knowledge.

After Halloween passed, he was ready to officially start learning magic knowledge in the forbidden area.

The forbidden area in the Hogwarts library, the books in it are not all books related to black magic.

It is a book that the school believes is too dangerous and esoteric to be exposed to by middle and lower grades.

Yes, it is not suitable for middle and lower grades.

After entering the fifth grade, part of the forbidden area can already be opened to students.

As a professor, Sherlock naturally has the right to consult all the books in the library, including those magic books in the forbidden area.

On a weekend morning in November, Sherlock came to the library and walked into the forbidden area for the first time.

Mrs. Pince, the administrator who was in charge of overseeing the entire library, naturally did not stop him.

Just because professors usually need to borrow books, they always write a note and ask students to lend them out. It is rare for Sherlock to come over in person.

After entering the forbidden book area, the books related to black magic were the ones that caught my eye the most.

In terms of power and effect, black magic is indeed the strongest of all spells, among which the three unforgivable spells are the most.

If you want to quickly have self-protection ability and master powerful strength, the most convenient way is undoubtedly to learn black magic.

But Sherlock's attitude towards black magic is just as he said in the teachers' meeting.

The magic spell is only an appearance, the real core lies in the human heart.

Before he was truly sure that his will could resist the erosion of black magic, Sherlock was not ready to touch these seemingly powerful forces that he could not actually grasp.

Of course, not using it doesn't mean it won't.

Just like Dumbledore, no one has ever seen him eat a big melon, but can you be sure that he won't?

And just as Sherlock surrounded the bookshelves in the forbidden area, picking out which book to read.

The crescent-shaped birthmark on his left arm suddenly became hot again!
