Hogwarts: I am Harry's Cousin

Chapter 262: 260. Criteria for Evaluating Defense Against the Dark Arts Professors

After finishing his daily morning exercises, Draco wandered around the castle with his two followers, Crabbe and Goyle, bored.

Hermione and Dudley were reading in the library, while Neville, Ron and Harry practiced spells in the Room of Requirement.

He didn't want to go anywhere today. He didn't want to study or practice spells. He planned to rest all day and relax.

Well, for members of the disciplinary team, just taking classes is relaxing.

In a trance, he always felt that there was something following behind him, as if someone was watching him.

But every time I looked back, I found nothing.

This made him very puzzled.

But he believed in his intuition, there should be something really following him.

So he didn't stay too long, and immediately ran to the library to ask Dudley for help.

Miraculously, the moment he stepped into the library, the feeling of being watched disappeared.

"Draco, don't you want to rest today?"

Dudley looked at Draco and asked.

Draco thought about it and told Dudley what he felt just now. Dudley told him to pay attention recently, maybe he was being watched by someone or something, and the next time he felt this way, he would come to him immediately.

Who was Draco following?

That's naturally the 'Moody' professor. The guy who wants to set up the 'traitor' Lucius' son Draco is naturally the best choice.

It can not only export breath but also make one's "Moody" image more three-dimensional.

The time for self-study is coming to an end soon, and the little wizards of the fourth grade began to come to the classroom of Defense Against the Dark Arts one after another. This is their fourth year at Hogwarts, where they have seen the end Baba's Garlic Professor (Quirrell), a Drama Professor (Lockhart) who is dressed like a flower peacock, and a perfect Professor who can transform (Lupine).

Today was the fourth professor who taught them Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Put "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" on the desk early, quietly waiting for the arrival of the famous 'Mad-Eye'.

Many young wizards have heard about Moody from their seniors

The teaching level is first-class, there is almost no black magic that he doesn't know, and his achievements in combating black magic are even higher.

To describe it in one sentence-Professor Moody's class is simply 'cool'.

Immediately after the class, I received a large wave of admiration from young wizards.

Accompanied by Moody's very characteristic thumping footsteps, this strange and scary old wizard appeared at the door of the classroom.

"Put these things away." The first thing Moody did when he entered the classroom was to point to the textbooks on the desk of the little wizard, and said in a rough voice. down.

"You don't need things like textbooks."

One sentence excited the little wizards below the podium.

They had heard similar words from the previous Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Although Professor Lupine also taught them the knowledge of dark magic creatures in the order of the textbook, he never used the textbook.

The textbooks are taught by two professors, Quirrell and Lockhart

Whether or not they use textbooks to teach has almost become the standard by which they judge whether a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is qualified.

"Before I came here, I received a letter from your Professor Lupin, introducing your studies in this class. You have learned a lot about how to deal with black magic creatures."

The young wizards murmured their agreement.

Professor Moody nodded, and then changed the topic: "Not enough, it's not enough! For three years, you only learned how to deal with black magic such as Boggart, Red Hat, Hinkpunk, Grindylow, Kabbah and Werewolves. biology."

"You are already in the fourth grade. Your knowledge of Defense Against the Dark Arts is so shallow that I already learned how to deal with dark wizards when I was your age!"

Calculated according to the age line, Moody, Hagrid and Tom are almost in the same class.

That was Grinwald's time. He was right when he said that learning how to deal with dark wizards made sense at that time.

"I really want to know what you have learned in the past two years?"

Little wizards look at each other

The professors of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the first and second grades, one Quirrell and one Lockhart, they also wanted to know what they had learned with them in the past two years.

If it weren't for the teachings of Professor Lupine and Mr. Dursley in the third grade, their knowledge of Defense Against the Dark Arts might still be at the level of how to deal with little mischievous curses like 'grin hula la'.

The young wizards in the audience were discussing a lot, and Moody tapped the ground with his crutches to silence the voices in the classroom.

"Defense Against the Dark Arts is not only about dealing with dark magic creatures, but also learning how to deal with dark magic spells!"

"I am going to give you a taste of spellcasting among wizards. I have a year to teach you how to deal with black magic"

"Can anyone tell me what is the best and most effective way to deal with the dark arts?"

Moody looked at the little wizards in the audience and asked.

As soon as Ron heard this question, I know it, and immediately raised his hand to answer.

"It's a counter-curse, sir."

"The answer is correct." Moody nodded in satisfaction: "Redhead, you are a child of the Weasley family, right? Your father Arthur has done me a big favor."

Ron, who was a little embarrassed by Moody's praise, said: "We have learned a lot of black magic counter-spells in the third grade."

Then he thought of something and looked pale.

Extra points, what about extra points?

It's rare for me to answer questions in class, what about the extra points for the discipline team?

"I see."

Moody nodded, looking a little surprised. Lupine's letter didn't mention this. His letter said that the fifth grade (last year's fourth grade) hadn't learned counter-curse. Why is the fourth grade (last year's third grade) learning instead? Did Lupine write the grade wrong?

"I also learned the Patronus Charm." Ron, who didn't get any points, added another sentence without giving up.

Moody's face is starting to look a little awkward

Third grade (now fourth grade) learning the Patronus Charm? Are you sure you're not joking?

This thing may not be taught in sixth grade.

Not many Aurors know the Patronus Charm

"That you"

Moody tentatively asked in a questioning tone.

"Basically learned."

The little wizards replied in unison, even if some little wizards couldn't summon the physical patron saint, it was enough to use fluffy white silk to deal with a single dementor.

Moody's mind was a little messy.

No. Is this really the fourth grade?

Originally, he wanted to say that the content they studied was not deep enough. Now it is not a problem of not being deep enough.

But the content of learning is beyond the outline.

Who taught the third grade Patronus Charm?
