Chapter 16: Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson
The next day, it was time for Lupin's Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ Info: Defence Against the Dark Arts has become one of the most popular courses these days.
Students of all grades have rave reviews of Lupin, and the key is that Xingzhe also thinks that as long as it's not Lockhart's kind of teasing, Lupin's kind is actually really good, which is quite happy.
He has a humorous and gentlemanly class, which naturally wins the favor of the vast majority of students.
When Xingzhe attends Professor Lupin's first Defence Against the Dark Arts class, Professor Lupin has not yet arrived. The students whispered, pulling out their textbooks, quills, and parchment, and Joe and Jenkins were talking to each other.
Seeing that Xingzhe didn't bring anything, Beard asked suspiciously, "Owen, why didn't you bring anything?" β
Owen smiled and said, "Professor Lupin's class, I don't think the textbook is the most important thing, the important thing is the actual operation. β
Professor Lupin finally walked into the classroom. With a faint smile on his face, he placed the tattered old box on the podium. He was still in rags, but he looked much healthier than he had been on the train, maybe because Hogwarts had better food?
"Good afternoon," he said, "please put your textbooks back in your bags." Today's session is a practical lesson. All you need is a wand. β
Beard was stunned, and Xingzhe looked at him again and smiled.
The students put away their textbooks and exchanged a few curious glances with each other. They had never taken a Defence Against the Dark Arts practice class before, except for last year's memorable lesson. In that lesson, the former teacher brought a cage of elves to class and released them all.
"All right," said Professor Lupin, seeing that everyone was ready, "you come with me." β
Puzzled and interested, the students stood up and followed Professor Lupin out of the classroom. He led them through the empty hallway, and Xingzhe followed him, and he chatted with Xingzhe and said, "Hey, Owen Paul... I heard that you seem to have a great talent for dark arts?"
"Oh, no, no, Professor, it's not dark magic, I don't have the torturous mentality of a mystery man." Lupin smiled and asked nonsensibly, "When you entered the school that day, did you cast that Patronus Charm?" β
Xingzhe laughed and replied, "Who knows? β
He led the second-grader through the second hallway and stopped outside the door to the faculty lounge.
"Let's go inside." Professor Lupin said he opened the door and took a step back.
The staff lounge is a long room with wooden panels on all four walls, and the room is filled with old chairs that don't match. There was only one teacher in the room. Professor Snape sat in a low armchair. When his classmates entered the room, he turned his face, his eyes sparkling, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a sarcastic sneer.
But after he saw Xingzhe, he restrained his usual mocking expression and became very gloomy
Professor Lupin came in and was about to close the door behind him when Snape said, "Don't close the door, Lupin." I'd better not witness this. He stood up and strode past his classmates, his black robes fluttering behind him. Walking outside the door, he turned around again and said, "Lupin, there's a very.... The conceited student, he always thinks that he is very remarkable, lacks manners, discipline...."
Xingzhe smiled confidently, and did not speak or look at Snape. Many of the students looked at Snape in fear. Luna stood beside Seong-cheol.
Snape smiled funny, as if he thought the scene was funny
Professor Lupin raised an eyebrow.
"I would have liked Irving to help me with my first steps," he said, "and I'm sure he's going to do a great job." β
The corners of Snape's mouth twitched, but he walked away anyway, slamming the door shut.
"Alright." Professor Lupin said, motioning for the students to walk towards the other end of the room. There was only an old wardrobe there, and the teachers kept their changing robes in it. Professor Lupin walked over and stood next to the closet, which suddenly shook and slammed against the wall.
"Don't worry," Professor Lupin said calmly when he saw a few of his classmates jumping back in shock, "there's a boggart in there." β
Most of the students seem to feel that this is exactly what they need to worry about. Stilwell stepped back in fear, and Seamus Finney stared in horror at the rattling doorknob.
"Boggart likes dark, enclosed spaces," says Professor Lupin, "the wardrobe, the space under the bed, the cupboard under the sink β I once came across a man who lived in an old man's clock." This one just moved in yesterday afternoon, and I asked the principal to let the teachers keep it for practical lessons.
"Now, the first question we're going to ask ourselves is: What is a Boggart?"
Obviously, almost everyone's eyes were focused on Xingzhe, which made him slightly embarrassed.
Lupin's naturalism reached this point, and he smiled and nodded to Xingzhe, motioning for Xingzhe to answer.
"A kind of deformation.... Fantastic Beasts? I don't know, but it's going to be something that people fear in their hearts. βγ
"Yes, yes, that's right!" Lupin laughed and said, "So... Do you know what advantage we have against this thing right now? β
"There are so many of us that it doesn't know what to become."
"Well, that's great, Ravenclaw, plus 10 points." Lupin nodded to Xingzhe, and then began to say, "When dealing with Boggart, it's best to go together. This confuses it: does it turn into a skeleton without a head, or does it turn into a meat-eating slug? I once saw a boggart make this mistake -- it tried to scare two people at the same time, and ended up turning itself into a half-slug, which wasn't scary at all. β
"The spell to repel the Boggart is very simple, but it requires great mental strength. You know, what really made Boggart completely finished was laughter. What you need is to force it to be an image that you find funny. β
"Let's not practice the spell with our wands first. Please read it to me...... RiddikulusοΌ β
βRiddikulusοΌβ The whole class said it together.
Lupin turned to look at Xingzhe, and then said, "So.... Would you like to ask Owen Paul to show us how to deal with Boggart. β
Lupin walked over to the small box and turned to Xingzhe and whispered, "I guess this should be easy for you." β
Seungzhe smiled, then drew his wand.
"When I'm doing the demonstration at Irving Paul, I want everyone to take a moment now to think about what you're most afraid of, and then imagine how you can make it funny......
Professor Lupin then pointed his own wand at the doorknob of the closet and said, "One-two-three-begin!" β
Professor Lupin's wand shoots a string of sparks from the tip of his wand, hitting the spherical doorknob. The door to the closet suddenly opened.
In the dark cabinet, there was nothing, but... Gradually, a person walked out.
Xingzhe was dumbfounded.
This person looked very unnatural, he was wearing a white shirt, and he was dressed as a fairy.
Boggart actually became the third senior brother? Star Zhe Black Question Mark Face ???
He immediately picked up his wand and yelled at Boggart, "Funny, funny!" β
Lupin's brow twitched, he noticed the development of Xingzhe when he chanted the mantra... Something strange may seem like it.
However, the white shirt on Boggart's body suddenly became an island-style kimono.... The kind that was showing everywhere, he had an extra umbrella in his hand, his hairy thighs were exposed, and his face was plain and white with a lot of thick white foundation.
It's like a muscular guy wearing a woman's sexy women's outfit.
"Hahahaha" burst into laughter, and everyone thought it was too comedy, so funny.
Xingzhe didn't laugh, he even had a little doubt.... Could it be that he is really afraid of the third senior brother?
No.... It should be jealous, he is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he is afraid of the third senior brother.... Is it because he's too strong?
Professor Lupin shouted, "Ginny, up! β
