Chapter 279: Funny Defence Against the Dark Arts Class (Part II)

"Thank you, William, for your performance today is fantastic." After bragging about his adventures, Lockhart finally remembered William, who had been "petrified" by himself.

"And you, beautiful Miss Parkinson, you have succeeded in recreating my legendary adventure, Ravenclaw and Slytherin plus twenty points each!"

Hearing this, the students' applause was even more enthusiastic, but not for the funny drama, but to thank Lockhart for his generous bonus points.

Unlike the brainless Gryffindor and the foolish Hufflepuff, the shrewd Slytherin and the wise Ravenclaw had long sensed that something was not quite right with Lockhart.

With the exception of a few women who were bewitched by Lockhart's handsome appearance and his rhetoric, most of the students realized that Lockhart's behavior was very different from what he described in the book.

Dumbledore was right, and when he put Lockhart in an ordinary school life, people quickly discovered that he was a parallel trade.

No one is stupid, and Lockhart's clumsy performance can't fool everyone.

At the very least, Slytherin and Ravenclaw now have figured it out.

The shrewd little snakes probably knew from the beginning that Lockhart was a parallel trade, after all, Dumbledore's employment would not be hidden from the school board.

And the Ravenclaw Kitty Hawk, under the hints of Penelope and William, basically recognized Lockhart's true colors, except for a small number of schoolgirls who were madly obsessed with Lockhart, for example, Sally Dupin.

Seeing through Lockhart's essence, the little snake and the eaglet remained silent very tacitly, and after Ravenclaw, Slytherin was the first house to begin to flatter Lockhart.

The Snakes learn Ravenclaw's scoring skills and earn a lot of points for their house.

As for Lockhart, naively, he thought how popular he was with the students.

"Now, you know how to deal with the petrification spell that appeared some time ago!" Lockhart proudly boasted to the students in the seats below the podium.

"Do you use this so-called upside-down spell like you? We hadn't learned the spell. Terry asked with a hippie smile.

"That's a very complicated spell, Bout. If one of the gestures is wrong, it can have serious consequences. Lockhart scared Terry in a serious way, he certainly didn't know what the spell was inverting.

Because I'm afraid this spell is still in Merlin's belly!

"However, if you read my autobiography "I Can Magic" carefully, you may find some clues about this spell, and I have hidden them in my autobiography." With that, Lockhart winked at Terry playfully, and a Lockhart-esque smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Alright, let's start today's class, this week's assignment is to write a three-foot-long essay on the theme of this great adventure, and I'll mark your homework in class at the first class next week."

"The best little wizard will receive my autobiography 'I Can Magic' signed by me and the honor of adding fifteen points to his academy."

After assigning his homework, Lockhart looked back in the direction of William and Pansy.

"Of course, given the excellent performance of the two of you in class today, William and Miss Parkinson, you two don't have to turn in your homework this week. Well, good times are always short-lived, and class is over! ”

"William, your performance on the podium is so funny!" After walking out of the classroom, Terry still looked like he was overjoyed.

"yes, if you come to the Muggle world, you're going to be a good movie star." Ike said with a grin.

"Movie star, what's that, a clown like Lockhart?" Terry asked, a little strangely.

"That's a group of people who are active on the screen, using their performances to please the audience behind the screen."

"What is a screen?" Terry looks like a curious baby, full of curiosity about everything unknown.

In fact, this is the quality of a good Ravenclaw, always with a strong and exuberant curiosity about the unknown.

"It would be nice to think of it as a magic photo that moves." William and Ike looked at each other helplessly, and explained to a young wizard who had grown up in the wizarding world that Muggles had used the power of science to create products that were really troublesome.

"Doesn't sound interesting." Terry pouted, and his attention quickly turned to something else.

"Three feet, am I going to write a three-foot-long paper on this story? If I had known that I would be exempt from my homework if I performed on stage, I would have learned from you to go up and play a rival role for Lockhart. Terry said with some remorse.

"What do you want to play, a Siberian snowman with a bad cold? Or a carrot-loving vampire? Or a fat chunky goblin who eats? The latter one you are acting in your true colors. ”

Ever since Terry was recognized as a stocky goblin by the dazed Professor Binns, William has been teasing Terry with this meme.

"Don't! I'd rather be a shaved werewolf. ”

"Isn't Lockhart's homework hard to write? You only need to copy a large excerpt from the plot of his book, and write a few compliments at the end to get a good score. Ike asked.

"But I still have to write it, three feet, you don't know, transcribing those stories is a double torture for my body and spirit!" With that, Terry blinked at William, who knew he had something to do.

"Well, I have an automatic writing quill here that I can lend you, but only for Lockhart's homework, and you will have to write the rest by hand." William pulled a quill from the magic bag and handed it to Terry.

It was an alchemy of his leisure time, and it was not difficult for William to make a quick-writing quill similar to the one sold at Jokowi's joke shop.

"I know you have a way, William!" Terry took the quill with great interest. Looking at the quill of orange, pink, lime-green and yellow, he couldn't help but ask.

"William, when has your taste been so bad, this feather looks like a match for Lockhart's bells and whistles peacock quill."

"That's the feathers of the Evil Woman's Bird, a very rare magical material, and it's also very beautiful."
