Chapter 23: Dumbledore's visit
Books are not cheap things, especially textbooks. A slightly more professional textbook will make you wonder at the checkout whether this stuff is a book with silver pages.
That the businessman came to the door to William is completely understandable, but in William’s state, Xiao Guicao is not bad, choosing suitable textbooks for himself is completely making himself trouble.
With these words, he was going to tell the boss plainly that he didn't plan to do something like choosing newly listed books as textbooks, even if there is no current crisis.
But when he opened the door with a straight face, he was taken aback by the person behind the door.
A low voice sounded from behind Old Tom:
"Good afternoon, Mr. William. I took the liberty to visit without a letter, but the matter is more urgent. I think we need to communicate face-to-face."
Although he said so, the voice of the visitor was not very anxious. His lanky figure made his face completely exposed behind old Tom, and the gentle smile on his face made it impossible to imagine that such a kind old man was magical. Recognized as the strongest in the world.
"Good afternoon, Professor Dumbledore, to be honest, I didn't expect you to come a moment before I opened the door."
William forcibly controlled himself not to show an eager expression-nothing could be done, this one in front of him is really too generous.
At present, William has drawn more than twenty boxes from the system scatteredly. Compared with the other boxes, Albus Dumbledore's approved box can crush all the other boxes.
Other people's chests are drawn from the card pool. The chest on Dumbledore's side is completely selected from all the final rewards after the card pool has been exploded.
And, considering the experience of getting the second box from Monton, William can be sure that he can at least get another box on Dumbledore—basically, printing another card.
At that time, it was because of this problem that he resolutely chose to go to Hogwarts for half a year. Although it seems that he was scammed by his own choice, he was scammed, and he could not even say that he even chose the welfare at the time No more.
"Maybe this is the old guy's a little bit stubbornness, they always like to let their own temperament. Then you can ask me to have a cup of hot chocolate?"
Professor, I’m sorry to tell you that old Tom doesn’t welcome sweets in his bar very much—when William was about to say that, old Tom standing at the door responded to Dumbledore with a smile on his face.
"Of course, good hot chocolate with a little white wine blended in it. This is my skill."
Old Tom eagerly stretched out his hand towards the room, "Please sit down first, Professor, the hot chocolate will be ready soon."
Say good bars don’t sell chocolate?
William sighed slightly, and then shouted to the old Tom who was running downstairs: "I want a drink too!"
After doing this, he walked directly into the door, sat down on the bed, and left the only chair for Dumbledore.
"The lighting is very good," Dumbledore glanced at the environment of the room, then set his gaze on the pile of books on the table.
Beside the book, there are a thick pile of notes—it is a matter of life, and William used the spirit of review during the college exam week to deal with these books.
"Perfect preparation, it seems that we have made the best choice. I bet Minerva can't help but sigh when she sees these notes."
Dumbledore's expression became more and more cheerful, and it was obvious that a professor who was serious about teaching affairs was quite appreciated by the principal.
"I haven't done system training on these things after all. Although it's a bit late to add it, it's better to do some preparation than nothing."
William told half the truth.
Putting aside the self-study in Azkaban, he can almost be regarded as having not received any magic education, and now being so serious is not a review, but a self-study.
But this answer pleased Dumbledore.
Dark Magic Defense—now called Wizard Self-Defense Magic Learning—The professors of this course are not too far away from Azkaban, after all, people who don’t understand black magic are not qualified for this position.
A wizard who has grown up and can support himself in the wizarding world, even if his strength is a little weak, can barely touch the side of this course, especially the curse of letting the professor leave school that can't be solved by any means, even more so. The selection requirements for the professors of the courses have become much lower.
Under such circumstances, a professor who is willing to work hard in teaching, but is humble and not arrogant, can hardly make Dumbledore more satisfied—especially when compared with the new professor.
"This is the situation, black magic-oh, the wizard self-defense magic is learning this course, and we have received a cover letter from a new wizard. Considering that one person is divided into seven grades, this kind of thing is really too exaggerated ( Note 1), we decided to accept his application."
"Newcomer?" William was taken aback.
Perhaps the most traumatic experience of the previous professors made the school underestimate the curse. Perhaps the Dark Lord did not resurrect and the power of the curse was greatly reduced, but William knew very well that this course is now a deep pit.
"I think I can do it, Professor Dumbledore."
William said sincerely. U U Reading www.uukanshu.com
If the opponent comes in to curse the power will be reduced, he may hesitate for a long time to refuse, but in this situation, there is no need to drag people into the water.
"Of course I trust you, especially after seeing the information on the table, but I have discussed with Professor McGonagall. If there are other wizards who are willing to try, we will not refuse his application for the sake of students' consideration-seven Young professors will break down young professors with schoolwork at an old age."
Dumbledore explained kindly.
"What about the curse? This is not an ordinary position. Every year, the professor will have an accident because of the curse."
"In the past, we have tried every means to deal with the curse. Although we could not successfully erase the curse, we have tried our best to reduce the danger. The new professor knows this matter as well as you. The curse is not a problem."
【The curse you suffered meets the sharer, you get a blessing box. 】
There are no excuses, and no excuses—if he guessed correctly, while Dumbledore came to inform him, Professor McGonagall should be signing a contract with another candidate.

Note: 1. According to the relatively high degree of recognition of the online inference curriculum, basically the Defense Against the Dark Arts class is at least one big class a week, lasting half a day, and each grade is attended by two colleges together. , That is, each grade takes one day to teach. Even if the seventh grade internship does not require classes, the sixth grade is a major elective course regardless of college. These courses need five and a half days, even if the evening is occupied, it counts as three classes a day , Eleven large classes also require nearly four days of class, which is not counted as preparation time, that is to say, including the preparation time, the defense against the dark arts professor needs a time converter to teach normally, which is more than 996.
