Hogwarts Lion Girl

Chapter 225 Curse

Hermione looked around and confirmed that no one raised any objections. She cleared her throat and said, "Since everyone agrees to let Harry teach us defense, let's discuss the time and place of the class."

She tucked the hair that fell on her cheeks behind her ears and continued, "I think we should have at least one class a week. If it's too short, it won't be effective at all."

"But what about our weekly Quidditch training?" Angelina asked anxiously. As the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, she naturally didn't want her precious training time to be taken up.

"Yeah, and we still have to prepare for the OWL exam!" Qiu also agreed, her eyes glancing at Harry from time to time, as if expecting his response.

Hermione explained patiently: "I know Quidditch and exams are important, but learning to protect yourself is more important than anything else! Professor Umbridge's theory is just talk on paper. If we really encounter danger, we will have no power to fight back!"

After hearing what Hermione said, everyone fell into deep thought. They had to admit that what Hermione said made sense.

Ernie Macmillan has always been dissatisfied with the Ministry of Magic sending Umbridge to Hogwarts as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. He couldn't help complaining: "Why would those idiots in the Ministry of Magic send that pink toad Umbridge to teach us defense? I'm afraid she can't even deal with a Boggart herself!"

Hermione explained, "Professor Umbridge did that because she thought Headmaster Dumbledore was using us against the Ministry of Magic."

"Minister Fudge must be crazy. He doesn't believe that You-Know-Who is back!" Luna Lovegood suddenly interrupted, "He thinks he can defeat You-Know-Who by forming an army of Heliopas. It's ridiculous!"

As soon as Luna finished speaking, everyone started talking at once, and the scene suddenly became a little chaotic.

"Quiet! Quiet!" Ginny suddenly imitated Umbridge's tone and successfully quieted everyone down. "Let's get back to the point and decide who will be attending first."

"To prevent anyone from leaking the secret, I suggest that everyone sign their names on the parchment." Hermione said, taking out a piece of parchment and a quill from her bag.

"I need a signature?" Zacharias grumbled in dissatisfaction. "This is too much trouble!"

"This is for everyone's own good!" Hermione explained, "I put a spell on the parchment. If anyone reveals our secret, they will be cursed horribly!"

The safety measure Hermione proposed seemed a little too serious to some people.

Dean Thomas raised his eyebrows in surprise. He muttered quietly, "This sounds a bit exaggerated. We are not planning a rebellion."

Lavender Brown, who was sitting next to him, also nodded in agreement.

George and Fred found it very interesting. They exchanged a sly look and were the first to sign their names on the parchment.

Zacharias looked reluctant. He curled his lips and complained quietly, "This is too troublesome. What if someone finds out?"

Ernie was also a little worried: "If this list is discovered by the Pink Toad people, we will be in trouble."

Hermione looked around and said in a serious tone: "I know what everyone is thinking, but for everyone's safety, I hope everyone can seriously consider it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ernie took the lead and signed his name on the parchment, and the others followed suit.

Finally, Hermione tapped the parchment lightly with her wand, and there was a flash of blood-red light, and everyone's name disappeared.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the parchment, filled with awe and a hint of barely perceptible fear.

Hermione folded the parchment carefully and put it in her pocket.

At this moment, an invisible bond tied them together tightly, and a mysterious sense of contract arose spontaneously.

Fred, George and Lee Jordan left first because they were going to Hogsmeade to buy things.

Others also stood up and said goodbye in twos and threes. Qiu Zhang wanted to say a few words to Harry, but was pulled away by her friends.

Hermione looked at the empty room and nodded with satisfaction. She felt that the party was a great success and that it was time to plan their first class.

Ron walked up to Harry and said in a low voice, "Zacharys is such a nasty guy. Who has the right to tell Hermione what to do?"

Harry nodded in agreement, "I don't like that guy either."

……

Afterwards, Harry and his two friends found Serena studying hard in the library.

Harry explained his purpose and hoped that Salina could join their study group and study together.

Salina closed the book and declined Harry's invitation with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I already have my own study plan." As she spoke, Salina took out a thick notebook from her schoolbag and handed it to Harry.

This is my study note, you can take a look at it. "

Harry took the notebook and was surprised to find that Salina's notes were very detailed and the content was far beyond their learning progress.

It was obvious that Salina's attainments in defense far surpassed theirs.

Harry realized that Serena no longer needed their help, so he stopped forcing her.

"Well, since you already have your own plans, we won't bother you."

Salina smiled and shook her head. "Don't worry, although I can't join your study group, I can provide a good place for you to practice spells in peace without worrying about being discovered by Umbridge."

Harry's eyes lit up, "Really? What place is it?"

Sharina smiled mysteriously, leaned close to their ears, whispered the name of the Room of Requirement, and told them how to find the place.

Harry, Ron and Hermione were all excited after hearing what Salina said.

All three of them were very happy and then started their remedial lesson plan.

……

On Sunday afternoon, Professor Umbridge returned to Hogwarts in a haughty manner, followed by two gloomy-looking Aurors, holding two huge rolls of parchment notices in their hands.

As soon as the notice was posted, the whole school was in an uproar. Students were talking about it, with anger and anxiety written all over their faces.

It turned out that Professor Umbridge had issued new Education Orders, the infamous Education Orders No. 24 and 25.

Education Order No. 24 stipulates that all regular gatherings of three or more students are to be compulsorily dispersed and expelled from school unless approved by the senior investigating officer.

Education Order No. 25 is even more excessive. It gives senior investigators the highest authority to punish students and even to modify school rules at will.
