A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 245 The first effect
"Go, move, fly the kite at a distance, don't be so rigid, the acromantula has high resistance, and if the petrification spell doesn't work, learn to use your Transfiguration to limit its movements!"

On the lawn outside the Forbidden Forest,

Charlie controlled the Patronus to float in mid-air, constantly guiding Alice who was fighting against the Acantara.

The second-year Gryffindor and Slytherin young wizards watched the fierce battle around intently, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione cheered Alice loudly from time to time.

After a month of practical training in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, almost all the little wizards have adapted to the battle with the acromantula, at least few of them will be fainted by fright.
Even Ron has gradually overcome most of his arachnophobia through close contact with acromantia many times. Presumably if this continues until the end of this semester, arachnophobia will no longer bother him.

And during this time, Charlie also taught the little wizards the most useful spell to deal with the acromantula - the stun spell.

But even so, so far, Harry has successfully hit the acromantula with a stunning spell in one battle, and won once.

Although many other young wizards have mastered the stun spell, they have not succeeded in defeating the acromantula because of poor timing.

After all, the giant eight-eyed spider has intelligence no less than that of human beings, and it will not let magic hit itself, and it can also spit out webs to attack from a distance.

"Burning flames!"

Alice raised her hand and cast the Fire Curse to burn the spider webs that were shooting at her, and then rolled tactically to avoid the attack of the acromantula, followed by a stun spell thrown out.

However, the giant eight-eyed spider reacted very quickly, and immediately shot out a spider web, blocking the stun spell.

However, Alice seemed to have expected it. When she raised her wand, she quickly released a light that was as bright as day, causing the acromantula to immediately close its eight eyes after being stung.

However, during this period of time, the giant acromantula obviously understood the methods of the little wizards. After closing its eyes, its body moved quickly to prevent it from being hit by the stunning spell.

"Flavive!"

Unexpectedly, Alice's reaction speed was faster at this time, and she pointed her wand directly at the ground under the acromantula, and the grass instantly turned into yellow sand.

Affected by the sand, the speed of the acromantula immediately decreased
"Passed out!"

A magical ray shot out from Alice's wand in an instant, and hit the Acantara's body precisely through prediction, causing it to enter a coma state.

And at this time, Alice, who exhausted her last drop of magic power, finally sat down on the ground.

"Excellent, ten points from Gryffindor!"

Charlie gave Alice a look of approval, and Alice also proudly straightened out her small chest when she saw Charlie's eyes.

To be honest, during this month's teaching career, while Charlie continued to guide the little wizards in actual combat, he did have some unexpected gains in combat and understanding of magic.

Perhaps this is the so-called teaching as learning!
at the same time,

In the headmaster's office of Hogwarts, Dumbledore, Snape, and Professor McGonagall also stood by the window, watching all that happened on the edge of the Forbidden Forest through magic.

"Which wizard is this Professor Meow, and why can he make those acromants, giant wolves, and centaurs in the Forbidden Forest so obedient?"

Snape's long, gloomy face rarely showed doubts.

You must know that Charlie, as the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, doesn't just guide Ellie's second grade. The first to seventh grades of Defense Against the Dark Arts are also taught by Charlie.

So different from the little wizards in the second grade who can only face an acromantula, like the little wizards in the sixth and seventh grades, Charlie prepared a triple combat package for them with acromantula, giant wolf and centaur.

According to Snape's understanding, these three creatures are all intelligent creatures, and they all have a lot of hostility towards wizards. Not to mention accepting orders from wizards, seeing wizards not directly attacking them is considered pretty good.

What's more, in the past month, all they saw was Professor Meow's patron saint from beginning to end. They didn't know what kind of person he was.

"Well, because of the agreement with Professor Miao, I can't reveal his specific identity. After a long time, you will naturally know!"

Dumbledore poked his wizard hat with his wand and replied with a smile.

"Isn't this kind of actual combat training too early for the children!"

Professor McGonagall wasn't curious about Charlie's real identity, but she felt that Charlie's actual training in Defense Against the Dark Arts was a bit too cruel for little wizards.

During this period of time, she often heard news that little wizards were fainted or even injured in Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Professor McGonagall is a very strict professor on the surface, but in fact, as far as she cares about the little wizards, she is the one who cares most about the safety and growth of the little wizards in the entire Hogwarts castle.

In the Triwizard Tournament, when Harry’s name appeared in the Goblet of Fire, Professor McGonagall’s first reaction was to terminate Harry’s participation to protect his safety.
But Dumbledore and Snape thought they could use Harry as bait to catch Voldemort behind.

In fact, if it weren't for luck, Voldemort was too arrogant, and Harry would have been killed along with Cedric when he was teleported to the Riddle family cemetery.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Dumbledore and Snape don't care about the students, they are actually the kind of great wizards who are willing to use their lives to protect the safety of the students,
It's just that they feel that it would be better for the little wizard to undergo certain training while growing up.

"Voldemort may make a comeback at any time, but I think it might be a good thing for them to learn more fighting methods!"

Obviously, Snape still liked Charlie's teaching methods.

"Okay, every professor has his own teaching style, and Professor Meow only promises to substitute for half a year. I came to you to ask, do you have any good candidates for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for the next school year?"

Dumbledore ended the argument between Snape and McGonagall, and asked.

Professor McGonagall and Snape looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time. The position of professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts has always been a difficult problem. It is not easy to find a powerful wizard who is not afraid of the curse of the Dark Lord.

"Since you don't have any good recommendations, I do have a candidate. What do you think?"

Dumbledore rolled his eyes and said.

"Who?"

Professor McGonagall and Snape showed puzzled expressions at the same time.

Dumbledore laughed:

"Remus John Lupine!"

Hearing this name, Professor McGonagall smiled slightly, and Snape's face instantly became very ugly.
