Chapter 16: Umlich Comes to the Door
The door to the auditorium opened, and Umlich walked in with two adult wizards in a non-serious step.
Several students who were originally competing stopped and looked at Umlich inexplicably.
Umlich made her way to the center of the auditorium, where Daphany had spoken before.
"Ahem!" Umlich coughed twice, trying to get attention, when in fact most people were already looking at her, except that some of the second and third graders were sparring with the puppets by the wall inside the opening, so they ignored her.
Umlich was clearly not very happy with this, and she coughed twice.
"If Professor Umlich has an uncomfortable throat, you can go to Madam Pomfrey, I believe she can easily solve it for you!" Daphany walked over slowly, looking at Umlich and the two adult wizards behind her with a calm expression.
Umlich's eyes flickered when she saw Daphany. Apparently there was still a hint of fear in my heart. But then I remembered that she was with a helper this time! Two batters trained by the Magic Law Enforcement Team! Although the striker is not as good as the Aurors, he is also a well-trained and good fighter among ordinary wizards! The two of them were specially transferred from the Ministry of Magic by Umlich to serve as thugs!
"What are you doing here?" Umlich questioned in a thin voice.
"Practice magic!" Daphany replied casually.
"Who gave you permission to do that!" Umlich continued to question. The Ministry of Magic has even scrapped the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and of course it doesn't want the young wizards of Hogwarts to practice in actual combat.
"If you mean the Duel Club, it was applied for by Professor Lockhart, then a professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts, three years ago, and approved by Dumbledore's school recruitment. After that, the school did not ask for closure, so it continues to this day. And if the professor is talking about magic practice...... "Daphine smiled dismissively, "I think for a positive student, you don't need anyone's approval to practice magic!" β
"It's unsafe and non-compliant!" Umlich scolded.
"In fact, since the opening of the dueling club, there has not been any vicious record of irreparable incidents!" Daphany spread her hands and said, "As for the norm, it's still that sentence, it's Dumbledore's permission!" β
"Dumbledore allowed it, and it was allowed three years ago! Now, I'm going to ban it! Umlich felt that it was a little unreasonable to reason with Dafanie, so she simply gave the order: "From today, from now on!" The dueling club was disbanded and was not allowed to continue. β
"Professor Umlich!" Harry hurried over, stood beside Daphany, and said loudly, "This is not your Defence Against the Dark Arts class, nor is it the Ministry of Magic!" β
"Of course it's not the Ministry of Magic, it's the school, I know!" Umlich suddenly showed a strange smile: "The latest order of the Ministry of Magic, the honorable Minister of Magic, Mr. Fudge, proposes, after the overall discussion of the Ministry of Magic. Think there's a serious problem with the way Hogwarts is educated! So ......"
"Excuse me~" Daphany unceremoniously interrupted Umlich's words: "You mean, there is a problem with the education method of Hogwarts, which has just won the championship jointly organized by five colleges and universities on three continents, Europe, America and Australia?" You Ministries of Magic are all in your heads! β
"How dare you insult us!" Umlich hadn't had time to speak, and in fact she was a little intimidated by Daphany, so she was a little slower to react. It was a striker behind her back who spoke. He had already taken out his wand and pointed it at Daphany, and the other had already taken out his wand, but he hadn't raised it yet, and he didn't dare to raise it.
Because the next moment when the previous striker raised his wand, dozens of wands were pointed at the three of them from all directions. Regardless of house or grade, almost all students above the third grade were pointing their wands at the Umlich trio at the moment.
Beads of sweat visibly oozed from the striker's forehead, and then ran down his cheeks.
Umlich was also a little flustered, she didn't expect this group of little wizards to be so united! It's Friday, and most of the young wizards who have come to the event haven't changed into their casual clothes for the weekend, and the sorting can be seen from the robes.
It's not just Slytherin, to which Daphany, belongs, and Gryffindor, to which Harry belongs. Even the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students, who usually don't like to get involved, pulled out their wands and pointed them at them.
"You, what are you going to do!" Umlich was sneering, and although she pretended to be tough, her voice was already slightly trivilet: "Do you actually want to attack the professors of the academy and the officials of the Ministry of Magic?" β
Umlich couldn't understand the scene in front of him at all, there were one or two hundred little wizards here, and there were all the houses! When did the students of the four Hogwarts houses become so united? When I was in school, the four branches were often human brains and dog brains. If it weren't for the excellent level of treatment in the medical room, I don't know how many students would have died "accidentally" while at school. Such a concerted action as it does right now is completely unbelievable in the eyes of Umlich! Read a book
"Alright, everybody, put your wand down!" Daphany said disapprovingly. The Slytherin snakes were the most obedient and put their wands down as soon as they couldβthey were the first to pull them out. After that, the students of the other three houses saw that Slytherin's were all put down, and they slowly put them down. The three of Umlich breathed a sigh of relief.
Daphany smiled lightly, looked at the wizard who was still pointing his wand at her, and asked with interest, "What's your name?" Which department? β
"My name is Ovis! Striker of the Ministry of Magic's Magical Law Enforcement Division! The wizard replied loudly.
"It turned out to be a subordinate of Ms. Burns!" Daphne nodded, Amelia Burns, the boss of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, is a witch of extraordinary strength! He is quite prestigious in the Ministry of Magic and the wizarding world as a whole, and he is a fair person. In Harry's previous hearings at the Ministry of Magic, her remarks were impartial, and in the end, with evidence and testimony, she chose to support Harry and Dumbledore. The lady was also Daphany's little sister and aunt of Susan Burns of Ravenclaw.
Daphany has some affection for Amelia BurnsStephanie, but it doesn't extend to the Orvis in front of her. A contemptuous smile appeared on her face, "I was still wondering, how could the Aurors have such a bad guy, is Mr. Scrimgeour old and confused?" But if it's a hitter, that's understandable, after all, it's a position with a very low threshold. And Ms. Amelia Burns is a better talker! β
"You, you...... Do you despise me? Orvis was furious, partly because of the contempt of Daphany's words, and partly because he was ashamed that he had been frightened by a group of students.
"Contempt? No, you don't have the qualifications to let me express my views! Daphany shook her head, looking at a piece of shit, "I wonder how dare you point your wand at me!" This is something that even Ms. Amelia Burns would not dare to do! It seems that Lady Amelia Burns is really too tolerant to let you guys lack education! β
Ovis's face was blue and purple, obviously angry to the extreme. He couldn't believe that a fourteen or fifteen-year-old student would dare to despise himself to such an extent.
Finally, Orvis still has brains. He still remembers being pointed at by dozens of wands. Suppressing his anger, Orvis said word by word: "Good, good! I'd like to see how good the teaching at Hogwarts has reached that has made a yellow-haired girl arrogant. I, the striker of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, Xente Ovis, challenge Your Excellency! β
"Challenge me, it's up to you?" There was undisguised disdain on Daphany's face. It only made Orvis angry and almost burned.
Seeing Ovis's whole body trembling, Daphany smiled contemptuously, just this psychological quality, still learn to duel? Daphine's mind is even lower than the current level of the Ministry of Magic.
"I'm the head of the dueling club, and I don't boast that I represent the top level of the dueling club! To challenge me, you've got to show a little bit of a similar level first! Daphne chuckled.
"And how do you want to get here?" Orvis roared angrily.
"That's okay, I'll find a random seventh grader, or sixth grader, and if you can win him, you'll be qualified to challenge me!"
As soon as Daphany said this, a group of students became excited.
"Cousin, cousin, I'm coming, I'm coming!" Draco almost jumped up in excitement, raising his hands and making a loud noise.
Not just Draco, but Harry, Ron, and even Hermione were all eager to try. Daphine didn't look at them. The other party is an adult wizard, and although Harry or Draco are growing up rapidly, they may not have a chance of winning, but their certainty is still a little lower. What she means is to find the top ones in the seventh grade, such as Fred, Angelina, or Cedric, etc., and have a better grasp!
Daphine's eyes swept to the twins, and sure enough, the twins were eager to try, and were about to take the roll call, when another voice sounded.
"Daphany, how about I try it!" A handsome Ravenclaw boy with brown and black hair slowly stepped forward.
"Padeville?" Daphne was slightly stunned when she saw this person, not only was she stunned for a moment, but Draco, who was originally on his hands and wanted to fight, and Pansy beside him were also stunned for a moment, and Pansy also subconsciously shouted: "Brother Paderville? β
The brunette boy, Padeville, smiled at Pansy. He is also from the Parkinson's family, but only a collateral line. It can be considered Pansy's distant cousin. is a Ravenclaw seventh grader.
Dafanie has paid attention to Padwell, she is very Ravenclaw, and she doesn't like to fight, so she is not a particularly outstanding figure in the Dueling Club. However, judging from the level of magic he occasionally displayed, even if it is not as good as Cedric, it should not be much different from Fred and George's brothers. It's the best among the students.
If you play against that Orvis, you should have a chance of winning by about four or five points, and considering that the opponent has a high probability of underestimating the enemy, the odds of winning may be increased to seven points.
Daphany nodded, "Okay, it's up to you, Padeville!" β
