Chapter 423: The Curse In Defense Against The Dark Arts Class



Umbridge tapped her surprisingly short wand on the blackboard, and two lines of words immediately appeared on the blackboard: Defense Against the Dark Arts Returns to Basic Principles.

"Students, your teaching of this course has always been intermittent and unsystematic, hasn't it?" Professor Umbridge turned to face the class and crossed his fingers.

He placed it squarely on his chest, and then said: "Teachers are constantly changing, and many of them do not seem to follow the curriculum standards approved by the Ministry of Magic. This unfortunately means that you are now far from reaching the level that you should achieve in O.W.L. 5 years." "

What she said is not wrong. After all, first-year Quirrell and second-year Lockhart are really... It's hard to describe in one word. Third-year Lupine is a good teacher, but his teaching is limited to dark creatures. It's not that he didn't teach spells, but most of those spells were aimed at dark creatures. They didn't establish a correct concept of black magic for the students at all, and they didn't teach the students much about fighting against real black magic. As for Little Barty last year, he worked hard on black magic. However, due to his evil intentions, most of the magic introduced to the students were spells that were extremely lethal and would cause 533 negative effects on the caster. They were not neutral at all. An objective, systematic explanation of black magic.

From Solim's point of view, except for Lupine, whose choice of teaching direction is still open to question, there is no qualified Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

"However, you will be pleased to know that these problems are about to be rectified. This year we will be studying a carefully planned, theory-focused, Ministry of Magic-approved Defense of Magic course. Please copy these words. .”

Umbridge knocked on the blackboard. The two lines of words disappeared and were replaced by the "Course Objectives" on the blackboard:

1. Understand the basic principles of magic defense.

Situations where magical defense can be used legally.

3. Evaluate magical defense in the context of actual use.

The only sound in the classroom was the rustle of a quill writing on parchment. Solim did not move. His "Phoenix Brand" quill from the ash tail feathers would automatically record what Solim wanted to record. After two or three minutes, when each student After copying down Professor Umbridge's three course objectives, she asked: "Does every student have a copy of Wilbert Slinka's "Theory of Magical Defense"?"

The classroom was filled with affirmative voices.

"I think we have to do it again," Umbridge said, pinching his throat. "When I ask you a question, I want you to answer 'Yes, Professor Umbridge.' Or 'No, Professor Umbridge.' ’ Let’s do it again: Does every student have a copy of Wilbert? Slinka's "Magical Defense Theory"?"

This time the students answered much more neatly.

"Very good," Professor Umbridge said, "I hope you will turn the book to page five and read Chapter 1: "Introductory Basic Principles" without whispering to each other while reading.

Umbridge sat down on the chair behind the podium and stared at everyone with his two droopy toad-like eyes.

To be honest, this kind of theoretical book is quite boring. For most students, there is no way they can even think about reading a single word in the book. The long paragraphs of professional descriptions and various professional terms make students drowsy.

Students who can really calm down and read a purely theoretical book seriously will never get bad grades - just like Solim and Hermione. And more stars started reading like History of Magic. There was no other way, they really couldn't read it.

For example, Harry stared at a line of text six or seven times, but could only understand the first few words. He felt that he could not concentrate at all, and he felt drowsy as soon as he saw the dense letters in the book - —And Ronald next to him has begun to (affa) be in a daze...

Harry turned his eyes to the right and was startled, suddenly waking up from his numb state. Hermione hadn't even opened her copy of Defense Against Magic. She stared at Professor Umbridge without blinking, one hand raised in the air.

Harry remembered that Hermione had never failed to do so when asked to read, or resisted the temptation not to open any book that came before her. Harry looked at her questioningly, but she just shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't want to answer the question now, and then continued to stare at Umbridge, who was looking equally firmly in the opposite direction.

After a few more minutes, Harry wasn't the only one staring at Hermione. The chapter that Umbridge asked them to read was too long-winded and boring. More and more students were more willing to watch how Hermione quietly attracted Professor Umbridge's attention than to gnaw on "Basic Principles of Introductory Studies". 》.

Draco elbowed Solim, "Look Granger."

Looking at Hermione's raised neck, Solim sighed: "Isn't this silly girl's neck sore?"

"What is she going to do?" Draco asked in a low voice, "Is she going to stare that woman to death?"

"Believe me, if you could stare Umbridge to death with your eyes, she wouldn't be alive now." Solim thought about it, and finally took out his wand and cast a spell on Hermione under the table.

"Oh my God!" Draco's eyes widened, what are you doing?"

"Let that silly girl relax." Solim shrugged.

Hermione was staring at Umbridge. She was ready. When Umbridge could no longer ignore her, Hermione would be able to figure out what this woman or the Ministry of Magic behind her had planned. There were already many students in the classroom looking at Hermione, and Hermione understood that Umbridge would soon be unable to bear it anymore - when most students stopped paying attention to the class, she, the professor, would have to do something.

But a sudden sleepiness swept through Hermione's brain, and Hermione felt as if her whole body had softened - comfortable and comfortable...

Hermione's neck, which had been held high, finally seemed to be unable to support it any longer, and her whole body relaxed.

"Someone is casting a spell on me?" Hermione realized this problem after being in a daze for a while, but she still couldn't seem to break away from the comfortable and comfortable feeling that the spell brought to her. Hermione wanted to make a move, but her body was very slow and it took a long time to react accordingly.

Hermione's consciousness was awake, but her body seemed to be out of control. It wasn't until Umbridge announced that get out of class was over that Hermione recovered.

After feeling her body rejuvenated, Hermione immediately set her sights on Solim at the back of the classroom. .
