Hogwarts Advanced Guide

Chapter 33 Penelope Clearwater

"I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time just now." Hera tilted her head and stuck out her tongue, "Professor Quirrell will only waste more of your time anyway."

The students in the audience burst into laughter.

"Since everyone's study progress has been delayed a lot before, I will start from the most basic." Hera pursed her lips, trying to make herself more serious.

It's just why the female students in the audience have nympho smiles?
Well, at least Penello is normal, she is holding a quill pen and listening carefully.

"The Defense Against the Dark Arts class mainly teaches you to resist all kinds of black magic and dangerous creatures—for example: vampires, werewolves, black goblins and other magical creatures. Believe me, this is definitely much simpler than you think."

Hera couldn't help showing a smile while talking, "Then let's not open the book, who knows about vampires? For example, their habits and characteristics are fine."

Hera was pacing in front of the podium, and the students below raised their hands in unison as he expected, so he randomly selected a female student.

"The source of vampire legends can be traced back thousands of years ago. No one knows how vampires were born in the first place, but they can transform others into offspring vampires through First Embrace. They must suck blood to maintain their vitality and have night vision."

"Yes." Hera nodded, waved her to sit down, and took the student's words: "Yes, but vampires must suck blood with magical powers. From wizards to dragons, sucking the blood of Muggles or ordinary animals is useless to them. I used to be a smuggler in Romania.
Ahem, I have come into contact with a vampire before. Vampires can use magic, but they rely on blood rich in magic power.

Part of the sucked blood sustains itself, and part uses magic, so the current situation of vampires in the magic world is very embarrassing.”

Hera said while summarizing the characteristics and habits of vampires on the blackboard.

Of course, these are definitely not what he remembered when he just read the book. He really encountered a vampire in Romania.

If it wasn't for that beautiful lady who wanted to secretly suck blood while Hera was resting, Hera would really be reluctant to kill her, after all, in a lonely night.
Hera spoke eloquently for more than ten minutes, stopped to rest, looked at the stunned look of the students in the audience, and frowned, "Why don't you write this down?"

At this time, there was a sudden rustle of groping for quills and parchment. No one seemed to think that Hera would really teach them knowledge, which greatly exceeded their expectations.

Amidst the noise, Penello raised his hand: "Professor, have you ever dealt with many magical creatures?"

The student next to him couldn't help but stop what he was doing, and pricked up his ears to hear Hera's answer.

"I have indeed seen a lot of magical creatures, but most of the time I become friends with them." Hera nodded. He didn't mind sharing his adventure experience with the students, but he didn't say the second half of the sentence——

If you don't become friends, how can you kill them severely?

As the saying goes: Stranger half of the pit, acquaintances grand slam.

"I often miss them, but they also have their own lives, and we don't meet often." Hera raised her eyebrows and said with a little regret.

Fortunately, they didn't meet each other, otherwise he might face the attack of dozens of black wizards.

Those were all tricked by him. Including but not limited to vampires, werewolves, saints, death eaters, veela, goblins.
"In the next study, I will introduce you step by step, including some of my 'adventure' stories, Cowper." Hera snapped her fingers, and a cup of hot milk suddenly appeared on the table.

"Remember? Let's continue with class."

A class is not long, and Hera didn't even finish the content of the first page of the book, interspersed with her own personal experience, which brought a completely different experience to the students.

This is much better than what Quirrell said before.

"Everyone write a paper and give it to me. The content is the method of identifying and killing vampires. There is no limit to the number of words on this topic. It will be handed in next Monday morning. Penello, stay after class and don't leave." Hera arranged the homework lightly.

Penello looked at Hera curiously, as if she didn't understand Hera's intentions, but it didn't affect her obedience.

When the other students left the classroom together, Hera drank the remaining milk in the cup, looked at Penello with a smile on her face, "I wonder if I will keep you?"

"I believe the professor must have his own ideas." Penello showed a sweet smile, which made Hera a little crazy for a while.

Penello is already in the fifth grade, and Hera and Hera are only three or four years younger. It seems that something really happened. It's not impossible!

But Hera is still clear, if he really did something, let alone the Ministry of Magic, I am afraid that it will be another evil curse directly on Old Deng.

It's really hard at Hogwarts, and you have to worry about Dumbledore throwing a curse at every turn.

"I believe you know enough about vampires, maybe that paper is unnecessary for you." Hera blinked and met her light blue pupils, as if she could see through Penello's heart.

"I saw the notes in the book. Ravenclaw is so lucky to have such a diligent student like you."

"You're too much." Penello put his hands on his chest, forcibly suppressing the restlessness in his heart.

"I thought maybe you could come to my office at a convenient time. You know, I don't know the progress of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."

"Of course, how about after dinner every weekend?" Penello tilted his head and recalled his class schedule, and readily agreed.

"Ok."

"Damn Lestrange!" Percy scratched the parchment in his hands angrily, and the rest of the common room was startled by him.

Hera has been substituting for them for a week. Compared with the previous Professor Quirrell, everyone obviously prefers the humorous Hera. Not only is Hera able to impart knowledge seriously, but more importantly, he has such a magical adventure experience.

Every time when talking about the content of the book, Hera can always easily tell the students about his dealings with those magical creatures. Although the authenticity is open to question, it does arouse great interest from everyone.

Until Harry went to the office to find Hera, he accidentally ran into Senior Penello.
When this matter reached Percy's ears, he was almost overwhelmed by jealousy. It was obviously the girl he had been pursuing, but was snatched away by that damned Lestrange?
