The third Dark Lord came from Hogwarts

The old man was very happy.

Dumbledore's Transfiguration Notes when he was young!

Not a test? For real!

Argus lowered his head to hide the gleam in his eyes.

When Dumbledore entered Hogwarts to teach, he was the professor of Transfiguration.

It's not an exaggeration to say that his Transfiguration is his specialty!

Even his father and Voldemort are probably a step behind him.

In the game, this notebook is definitely a golden prop!

As for becoming the professor's assistant, if Argus wasn't worried that this was a test from Dumbledore, why would he hesitate!

Now that he has determined the other party's attitude and has enough price, Argus will naturally not refuse.

After discussing the course with Dumbledore in detail, the two officially finalized the subsequent Defense Against the Dark Arts course.

Back to the Slytherin Common Room.

Several heads immediately surrounded them.

"How is it, head?"

"When can our Defense Against the Dark Arts course continue?"

"What did the principal and dean say?"

Many young wizards who were originally reviewing seriously couldn't help but prick up their ears.

"The professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts has been selected, and the course will resume in a few days."

"The textbooks will be the same as the Defense Against the Dark Arts textbooks of previous years, so you can prepare in advance during this period."

Agus' words immediately put everyone at ease.

Especially the senior students in the fifth and seventh grades, who breathed a sigh of relief.

Whether it is O.W.L or N.E.W.t exams, Defense Against the Dark Arts is a compulsory content, and the lack of professors' teaching has a great impact on them.

Especially when the exam is approaching.

After Hogwarts selected the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, they also understood a matter of concern.

"Head, who is the professor chosen by the school this time?"

"It won't be another..."

A seventh-year senior student suddenly spoke up, with a bit of nervousness in his expression.

Although he didn't finish, everyone could understand what he meant.

If the new professor has a teaching style similar to Lockhart, it's better not to go!

It's a waste of time!

As soon as this was said, the senior students became nervous again.

"Dean Dumbledore has already talked to me about the candidate for the new professor."

"As for who it is... it can't be announced now."

"But I assure you that the new professor is not comparable to Lockhart in terms of knowledge or teaching level."

Aggs responded to everyone with a smile.

Everyone felt relieved after hearing this, and became more curious about the identity of the new professor.

...

Two days later.

Horace Slughorn arrived at Hogwarts Castle.

Professor McGonagall was responsible for welcoming him.

"Minerva, long time no see!"

Slughorn taught at Hogwarts for as long as Professor McGonagall. Although they did not have a deep friendship like Dumbledore, they had known each other for many years.

They could barely be called old friends.

"Long time no see, Horace."

"I didn't expect you to come."

Professor McGonagall was very welcoming to Slughorn's arrival.

Compared to other people whose background was unknown, this old man who had taught at Hogwarts for decades was guaranteed in terms of both strength and teaching level.

"Minerva, I remember you have been at Hogwarts for more than 30 years, right?"

"Yes, it will be 40 years soon." When mentioning this, Professor McGonagall also sighed: "Time flies!"

"In a blink of an eye, you are about to retire, right?"

"I don't plan to retire so early."

Professor McGonagall spent most of her life at Hogwarts, and her feelings for Hogwarts were far beyond what Slughorn could compare to.

"Okay, let's talk about the past later. I'll take you to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office to settle down."

"I've sent someone to call your assistant in advance. You can communicate in advance later."

"Assistant!"

Slughorn's eyes lit up when he mentioned this!

The biggest reason he came to Hogwarts was for this genius who surpassed Voldemort in Dumbledore's words!

Professor McGonagall saw Slughorn's performance clearly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Her eyes were full of pride.

"It seems that you have heard of Mr. Grindelwald's name a long time ago."

"Believe me, Mr. Grindelwald will not let you down."

"Hahahaha...Albus said so too!" Slughorn smiled even more when he heard Professor McGonagall's recommendation.

While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office.

Originally belonged to Lo

Hart's things had been cleaned up.

Slughorn glanced around and put his things in simple order.

"Wait a moment, Mr. Grindelwald will be here soon."

"I won't interrupt your conversation."

Professor McGonagall had a class next, so she didn't waste any more time here.

Slughorn nodded and took out some of the things he needed.

When Argus came over, the room had been decorated.

There were two cups of steaming tea and a lot of exquisite snacks on the table.

Knock, knock, knock!

Even though the door was wide open, Argus still knocked gently.

Slughorn, who was preparing the textbook, raised his head in a hurry, and didn't even have time to close the book.

The first time he saw Argus, he was attracted by his elegant aristocratic temperament.

"Hello, Professor Slughorn, I am your assistant in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."

"Argus Grindelwald."

Argus bowed slightly to show respect to the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

This polite gesture made Slughorn more favorable.

"Hello, Mr. Grindelwald, please come in!"

He opened the door in advance just to let Argus come in directly.

So as to avoid staying outside the door.

Unexpectedly, the other party still maintained the etiquette of the nobility.

Others might still care about Argus's surname and bloodline, but who is Slughorn!

He doesn't care about these!

He raised his hand to signal Argus to sit down.

Argus responded with a smile and took a sip of the teacup in front of him.

There was admiration on his face.

"Earl Grey tea from Italy."

Slughorn laughed, becoming more and more satisfied with Argus: "No matter how good the tea is, you have to be able to taste it."

"You are much better than Albus. He only cares about whether the tea is sweet or not!"

"It tastes good! Hahaha..."

"Try this, my favorite pineapple candied fruit. If you are not old enough, I will definitely ask you to try my collection of oak-aged honey wine."

Slughorn's love for food and wine is no less than that of talented students.

Snape, Voldemort and others who met before, although they are extremely talented, don't know much about food and wine.

In contrast, Argus hit all his points perfectly.

He looked at Argus with undisguised love.

After talking about food with Argus for a long time, Slughorn ended the topic with reluctance and started to talk about business.

"Mr. Grindelwald, tell me about your previous Defense Against the Dark Arts class progress."
