Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 408 Lockhart's Annoyance

From the moment he accepted Dumbledore's offer, Lockhart knew it was over.

After all, it was time to pay off the debt.

Lockhart was sad, especially troubled.

But there was no way, he was threatened by the most powerful white wizard in the world. Although Lockhart didn't think he was a black wizard, he was definitely not so white, and he definitely couldn't escape Dumbledore's "claws" "of…

Therefore, although he wanted to run away with a bucket countless times, he struggled for a long time and finally came to Hogwarts obediently and became a glorious "Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts".

What the hell!Lockhart has not forgotten the "interesting experience" of changing professors every year when he was in school, but when this bad job fell on him, it was not interesting at all...

When Lockhart packed up his belongings and came to the office, endless sadness filled his heart again, but he was so weak that he could only force a smile on his face, keeping the bright smile on his face to cover up his hesitation and helplessness.

Although the future is bleak, life still has to go on. In order to complete the "task" assigned to him by Dumbledore, Lockhart began to think.

Rather than using his ingenuity to study magic and gain glory and status, Lockhart has a more convenient and "efficient" way - skip the stage of hard work and fast forward to the harvest.

Lockhart is undoubtedly a smart man, but his cleverness was used in the wrong place in the past, and now he is forced to be helpless and desperate. Lockhart used his intelligence to easily think of a way to complete Dumbledore's mission, and I have thought of a course of action for myself, one word——

Play, just press play.

Dumbledore said at the time that what he needed was a competent actor, and he wanted Lockhart to play a "bad professor".

Regarding acting skills, Lockhart still has a lot of experience in asking himself. After all, everyone has acted as an adventurer for so many years, let alone others, he almost believes it.

With his ability, playing a group of brats is just a matter of sprinkling water, but how to act is also a technical job.

Although Lockhart has really neglected to practice magic these years, he still thinks that he still has the ability to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, but now it seems that these are not needed for the time being
For more than a month, Lockhart has not done nothing. He has learned about the situation of a certain savior in detail, and has a general understanding of why he got such a job.

To put it simply, our Headmaster Dumbledore is playing the development game, and he wants to cultivate Harry Potter into a real savior.

An ordinary boy suddenly entered the magical world and became a "hero" that everyone knew. Lockhart knew how much vanity and satisfaction a great reputation could bring to people.

It would be fine if he is someone who "deserves his reputation" like a certain eldest son of the Lake family, but our savior obviously doesn't have the strength to match his reputation.

Dumbledore wanted me to personally "teach by example" and tell that brat that a reputation without strength is just a castle in the air, and those who claim credit for their incompetence are nothing more than a sensationalist clown.

Lockhart smiled wryly, yes, Dumbledore is asking me to take the initiative to play a clown
The point is that I still can't refuse. This is really murderous, completely destroying me from the aspect I am most proud of. It is really worthy of you, Dumbledore.

Lockhart greeted the students with a bright smile and slowly sat down. Many little witches who didn't know the truth for the time being fell under his charming white teeth. They had to turn their heads to look at Connor. Only in this way can I recover.

Dumbledore also smiled and nodded at Lockhart, before continuing with his opening address.

Lockhart was in a complicated mood, and couldn't help but look at the old headmaster a few more times resentfully. I was exaggerated with fear and tried my best to perform, but you, who should cooperate with my performance, turned a blind eye.
I can't get what I want, and I'm under the control of others. I'm really too humble.

Lockhart felt aggrieved and depressed, with nowhere to vent his evil fire, and then he turned his attention to Harry. He made up his mind that this semester must make this "culprit" suffer.
----

Harry, who was bragging with his classmates, shivered inexplicably, and someone wanted to persecute me again! ?Harry glanced left and right, and finally fixed his eyes on Snape's direction. The two looked at each other affectionately, and then turned their heads away.

Due to Connor's influence, Harry and Ron did not ride a speeding car to school this year, which made this year's opening ceremony a little less lively, but even if there was no "big news" about Harry driving a speeding car, the topic of little wizards would not be too much. will be less.

"Look! This is my King Arthur!" Ron put a golden monster card on the dining table, showing off to his friends.

The girl standing with the sword held her head high and her chest high, she was not angry and majestic.

"Shit! Ron, why are you so lucky every time? Why can you get a golden card in the same [-]-game streak?! And I only have a bunch of flame beasts?" Seamus, who has a special talent in fire magic Finnigan yelled angrily.

"Simo, it's normal for you to open a Pyrobeast. When did you open a bag without a Pyrobeast?" Harry's roommate Dean Thomas teased.

"Is this the epic skin of King Arthur? It's great, I'm so envious, but then again, why does King Arthur look like a girl?"

A few senior fake Europeans who didn't issue a new card came over curiously. It's not that they don't pay money, and the new card King Arthur's violence rate is really too low, but this kid Ron casually When it came out, it was really infuriating.

"She is so thickly dressed, how do you know if she is a boy or a girl, hehehe, why don't we take a look? Ouch! It hurts!"

A villain with evil plans just wanted to reach out to King Arthur on the table, but unexpectedly, he was slashed backhanded by the little man with raised eyebrows.

Fred touched the back of his hand and muttered, "Ah...how can this still hit people?"

Ron surrounded the paper figurine with his arms to protect him, raised his eyebrows and joked, "Don't you know? King Arthur has a passive [Dragon's Reverse Scale, touches it to anger], the majesty of the king is inviolable. "

"Dragon? Ni Lin?"

"Well, that tuft of hair on the head is Nilin."

"..." Fred curled his lips and muttered, "It's not that I want to touch there..."

"It's obvious that the other female character cards are all dressed less than the other, but when it comes to King Arthur, it's like wearing a quilt..."

"King Arthur doesn't understand people's hearts..."

On the long table of Gryffindor, it was very lively.

Harry looked at Ron's golden card and was full of envy. He felt that Ron must be the luckiest person in the world.

Harry and Ron, who should have suffered a devastating start this semester, were having a great time, while Hermione, who was also one of the Iron Triangle——

Hermione, who was ruthlessly pushed aside by a group of stinky men watching the paper man, rolled her eyes and stared at her meal, already desperate for this group of guys who had no gentlemanly demeanor.

In fact, Hermione is also very envious of Ron's gold card. Although Hermione doesn't play monster cards very much, it is Miss Artoria's card... I really want to hold her in my arms...

Unfortunately, not only did she fail to go to Diagon Alley before school started, she even...she didn't have any money...

The school's pound exchange quota is only enough to buy books and daily necessities, and Hermione has no spare money to buy these wizard things...

Alas, I have to find a way to earn some Galleons... Hermione thought so.

Hermione, who should have admired Lockhart a lot this semester, is now full of ideas about how to make money as a student to buy cards...
