Hogwarts: The Savior's Strong Cousin

Although I can still vividly remember the scene last semester when an incompetent Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher released a cage of Cornish pixies, causing chaos in the classroom.

But in the face of the thin and gentle Professor Lupin, most of the students chose to trust him. They walked through the corridor one after another and turned a corner. By chance, Peeves was hanging upside down in the air, stuffing a chewed gum into the nearest keyhole.

"Lupin the Looney Tunes," sang Peeves. "Lupin the Looney Tunes, Lupin the Looney Tunes --"

Although Peeves is always rude and disobedient, he is usually respectful to his teachers.

Everyone looked at Professor Lupin to see how he would react.

Unexpectedly, he was still smiling.

"If I were you, Peeves, I'd take the gum out of the keyhole," he said pleasantly. "Mr. Filch won't be able to get in for his broom."

Peeves said nothing, but just spat on the ground.

Professor Lupin sighed softly and drew his wand.

"It's a useful little spell... Vadivasi."

The piece of chewing gum suddenly shot out of the keyhole like a bullet, and "poof" went into Peeves' left nostril. The naughty ghost from Hogwarts suddenly turned over and flew away cursing.

The students couldn't help but cheer.

This is the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher they want!

Look at that polite behavior!

Look at the little magic performed between these gestures!

Some of the fans who were still immersed in Lockhart's appearance suddenly discovered that Professor Lupin in front of them seemed to have a more mature and beautiful appearance!

Suddenly, before they even arrived at the venue, Professor Lupin had become the favorite teacher of most students.

In the staff room, Harry, Ron and Dudley all shrank their heads when they saw the old wardrobe.

Wasn't this the place where they had hidden last year and heard the news about Ginny?

"Don't worry, there's a Boggart in there."

Seeing the strange behavior of the three people, Lupin thought they were scared and quickly tried to comfort them.

"Luckily we hid in it only last year."

Ron grunted.

A Boggart is a shape-shifting creature that can turn into whatever appearance scares the witness the most. The more witnesses there are, the easier it is to deal with - because no one knows what it will turn into.

The spell to repel Boggart is "Funny Funny", which will force Boggart to transform into an extremely funny image.

After reading the spell several times, Lupin chose Neville to be the first experimenter.

"Neville, what are you most afraid of in this world?"

Neville's lips moved, and after a long while, he finally uttered "...Professor Snape!"

Everyone laughed. Everyone knew that Snape disliked Mr. Longbottom the most and would come to cause trouble in almost every Potions class.

"You live with your grandmother, I suppose?"

"Why not imagine what she usually wears?"

"What would happen if it was used on Professor Snape?"

Neville lowered his head and thought for a while, then he covered his mouth and laughed.

Lupin smiled and nodded, opening the wardrobe.

"Snape" suddenly jumped out of the closet and stared at Neville fiercely. Neville quickly waved his wand and shouted "Funny!"

Almost immediately, Snape's figure twisted, and after a moment, as if a whip had been cracked, Snape began to stagger. He was wearing a long lace dress, a tall hat with a worm-eaten vulture on it, and a large red handbag in his hand.

Laugh out loud.

Neville himself was laughing so hard that he was rolling on the ground.

Then, the students came forward one by one, and the Boggart changed into the appearances they feared. Under the spell of "funny funny", many strange and weird things appeared in front of everyone one by one.

The classroom was filled with laughter.

"Oh, Harry, before you do, I want to see how Dudley performs."

Lupin stopped Harry who was about to go forward and waved to Dudley with a smile.

Dudley walked over immediately, only to see that the spider that had frightened Ron so much that his legs went limp suddenly turned into a silver-white ball of light with a "puff"!

"what is this?"

Seamus Finnigan made a puzzled sound, and everyone looked at the silvery ball of light.

"Why would Dudley be afraid of this...thing?"

Harry and Ron were also confused.

No one noticed Lupin's eyes widened.

This is what Boggart originally looked like!

Although most wizards believed that the Boggart itself was formless and would only transform into something that frightened the witnesses, as an experienced wizard, Lupin knew clearly that this seemingly harmless ball of light was the true appearance of the Boggart.

This means that this tall man in front of him has nothing to fear?

"Okay... Now, hold your wand steady and do your... Oh my goodness."

Even someone as calm as Lupin finally cried out in surprise. He watched Dudley pull out a silver stick that reached his eyebrows from his robes!

"What's wrong, Professor? This is my wand."

Dudley asked knowingly and waved his "magic wand" in a flower pattern. Suddenly, there was a whistling sound in the staff lounge. However, the students around him were prepared. Not only did they not dodge, but some of them even loved to cheer and clapped and cheered.

Lupin subconsciously looked at Harry beside him. Harry smiled, shrugged and spread his hands.

What can he do?

Who made my cousin so dazzling?

Dudley didn't hesitate, swung up the magic stick, and shouted "Funny!"

The sound almost made the wardrobe rumble, and the silver-white ball of light twisted. Suddenly, a pale, noseless bald man wrapped in a black robe appeared in front of everyone.

"Mystery man!"

The student who had heard of Voldemort's name was the first to scream. The students who were chatting and laughing just now were immediately frightened and struggled to escape from the staff lounge.

"Calm down, kids! It's only a Boggart! Not You-Know-Who!"

Lupin waved his hands quickly to gather the panicked students.

The shock in my heart was beyond words.

What I'm saying is that you're a bit too brave!

The famous Voldemort, the Dark Lord who started the war between black and white wizards, is actually a "funny" image in your eyes?

"Professor, what should we do now?"

Dudley held the stick and looked at Lupin innocently.

Lupin sighed and waved.

“Everyone did a great job.”

"Let me see... five points to Gryffindor for each of them having subdued a Boggart - ten points to Neville for having done it twice - and five points each to Hermione and Harry."

"And fifteen points for Dudley Dursley."

"That's it, get out of class dismissed!"

What else can be done?

Let’s get out of class quickly!
