Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

But the quarrel was a quarrel, and Harry and the others still had to go to class.

This section in particular is Professor Foley’s Defense Against the Dark Arts.

When Harry and Ron arrived in a hurry, Hermione was already waiting for them in the arena.

"I always thought there was something weird about her, just like her weird cat!"

Ron glanced at Hermione, who turned her head away from them, and whispered to Harry.

Even though Harry had never had any quarrels with Hermione, he had to nod in agreement at this moment.

"I feel like Hermione must be hiding something from us."

"Tch, if we ask her, she won't be able to tell us. She has never regarded us as friends!"

"...There's no need-"

"I don't know what you two are mumbling about, but if you two don't return to your teams, I will form a separate team for you two and find a corner to whisper about the last class."

Tver didn't know when he appeared behind the two of them, hugged them and leaned over and said.

The two people were startled and blushed. Amidst the laughter of their classmates, they trotted back to the crowd and stood together with Hermione.

Of course, caught in the middle is nature, our savior.

"I think you have been learning dueling for more than half a year, and you have even 'practiced' many duels in this arena."

"How about it, tell me your feelings?"

"It's great!" Simo shouted immediately.

This was the first time that he didn't have to hide in class and could use magic freely, especially his own strange magic.

In other classes, his explosive talent is Peeves, and he is thankful that he doesn't get into trouble.

But in a duel, he is the invincible Gryffindor sword in the team!

Although Professor Welfare told him not to be complacent because of this, he should instead practice magic more to avoid making fewer mistakes.

But the outcome of the duel is more important, isn't it?

Although other students were not so excited, their faces were full of happy smiles.

After practicing for more than half a year, they clearly felt the improvement in their strength.

Not just in terms of fighting.

In the past, their spellcasting was often criticized by Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick, saying that they were not decisive and resolute enough.

But now, even the two professors have to admit that after practicing more duels, their spellcasting on other magics has become much smoother! 7K妏揩

In Professor McGonagall's words, they now meet "the standards of fifth-year students before Professor Foley came to school."

This statement made them look at the current fifth grade students with a hint of contempt.

As everyone knows, because of the deepening of magic concepts, the senior students have made even more progress than them...

Tver clapped his hands with satisfaction and stopped them from talking about his feelings.

"It's great. I think you have realized that this year I focused on changing the class content to dueling."

"But now I need you to recall that in the first class of the school year, my class of course, something important was mentioned."

"do you still remember?"

The students immediately looked at each other in confusion with their friends, whispering about what the professor was referring to.

How much do they remember about what happened half a year ago? !

And their first Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson this school year was taught to them by Professor Lupine!

When it comes to Professor Snape's cross-dressing, they have it engraved in their souls...

"Are you referring to the duel competition?" Hermione raised her haggard face.

"That's right." Tver replied loudly immediately.

The students didn't care that they couldn't answer, and stared at the professor with brighter and brighter eyes.

Duel match!

The time has come to prove that they are no weaker than the professors!

"In the next few classes, you will work as a team to compete in intra-class duels."

"The competition will be based on random draws and will be played in a knockout format."

"And this competition will allow you to use any magic you learned in class. Remember, you learned it in class. It will never include black magic, even jinxes and poisonous spells."

"Of course, if there are students who teach themselves magic that is only taught in senior grades, that is naturally allowed."

"But please note that once a fatal mistake occurs, your journey in this game will come to an end."

"So, please be careful and be sure to give full play to % of your strength so that you will have no regrets."

Tver's solemn reminder immediately calmed the excitement of this group of students.

They all looked at each other with other teams, thinking about how they could guarantee victory if they faced them.

The elimination round is a bit more casual, and the results of the draw can easily affect the ranking of students.

But as a champion, no matter who the opponent is, you should always win all the way.

And this is the most time-saving and labor-saving way that Tver can think of.

It is naturally difficult for the duel competition at Hogwarts to become the most important event in the school like Durmstrang.

Therefore, the competition can only be held in the classroom. Only when the final grade competition comes, there is enough free time to hold it on the weekend.

As for the classroom…

His class is less than a quarter, so of course it can be less confusing, no, it would be better if it can be more compact!

After all, fifth and seventh grade students still have important exams to prepare for, and the final exams of other students cannot be delayed.

After the students all accepted the rules of the game and looked at themselves with all their strength, Tver waved his wand.

In an instant, the names of representatives of each team appeared above their heads.

Then he waved into the air again.

The names immediately blended together and mixed with each other.

This is not really a draw, because Tver can manipulate the matchups in the game.

But for him, there is absolutely no need to do this, so the matchup results can indeed be considered random.

Even if Harry doesn't want to go against Seamus and the others!

Seeing Harry's name and Seamus' name combined in the air, Ron's face was filled with sadness.

"It's over, we have to fight Seamus. Just guarding against his explosive magic from time to time is enough to drain our energy!"

Hermione curled her lips impatiently, but there was also a trace of solemnity on her face.

But Harry was worried not only about Seamus and the others, but also——

He glanced vaguely left and right at Hermione who yawned and Ron who was disappointed.

It's not that their strength is inferior to Seamus, it's just that the uncertainty of fighting Seamus, as well as the current status and relationship between Ron and Hermione, makes him really lack confidence.

Especially the latter, he doubted that the two of them would fight each other first...
