Chapter 116: Gilderoy the Generous
...... Since the tragic episode of the elf, Professor Gilderoy Lockhart has stopped bringing creature creatures to his class. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Instead, he reads passages from the book to his students, and sometimes re-enacts some of the more dramatic bits and pieces, usually picking Harry to play for him, and so far he has been forced to play the role of a stupid ship, a villager of the ship Severia, Gilderoy Lockhart who has broken his spell, a snowman with a cold head, and a vampire who can't eat anything but lettuce after being cleaned up by Gilderoy Lockhart.
During their Dark Witchcraft Defense class, Harry was once again dragged to the front of the classroom. This time he played a human wolf.
"Come on, this is the first time!" Harry complained to Van Lin as Gildero prepared.
"You have to be patient, Harry!" Van Lin whispered, "You know, if we ask Hagrid to buy these materials for us, things will fail, and Hagrid won't allow us to do that!"
In fact, Van Lin and Harry had used these materials to test Gilderoy Lockhart and Hagrid, respectively.
It also proves that Gildelow could do nothing but write novels. Although Hagrid didn't know very well, these materials were not available to a young second-year wizard, which made Hagrid wonder if Harry and the others were going to do something against the rules.
And brewing potions is also a dangerous job, think of Neville's face in the first grade, Neville was taught a long lesson by Madam Pomfrey.
As for Snape, please, Snape reprimanded them every day, and there was nothing strange about it at all.
"Go on, Harry......" Van Lin hurriedly urged, "Gilderoy is ready......
"Come on, Harry!" Ron snickered, "I'm sure you're going to make a great show!"
"Can't you change it?" said Harry in despair, he was already driven crazy by Gildero, like a clown every time, which really embarrassed Harry.
"All he needs is you, Harry!" Hermione also said, Hermione no longer had any hope for Gildero, whether it was from the class or the temptation of a few people, it turned out that it was just that.
"Come up, Harry!" Gilderoy greeted in a loud voice, and Harry stepped up pretending to be happy.
It looked like a strong man who had gone to death, and an inexplicable aura of sadness permeated Harry's heart.
......
"Wonderful howl, Harry—that's it—and, if you believe it, I swooped out—like this—and threw him to the floor with all my might—so that—with one hand—I was going to control him—with the other, I put my wand against his throat—I summoned up my strength and cast a very complicated spell—he let out a pitiful moan—and went on. Harry was a little taller—well—the fur was gone—the fangs were retracted—and he was back to a man. Simple but effective - another village will always remember me, the hero who saved them from the fear of being attacked by humans and wolves every month. ”
Gilderoy Lockhart stepped forward, smiling and bowing to the applause of Van Lin, Hermione, and Ron.
Slajelin, who was sitting on the side, also burst into applause, how to say, this was a round of applause for the "wonderful" performance of the two, even Malfoy did not skimp on his applause, of course, he did not forget to taunt Harry with his expression.
"Thank you, thank you!" said Gilderoy Lockhart, smiling like a real theater actor, even though he had no talent for acting.
"The homework is to write a poem about me beating the man-wolf Wig! The best one will get a signed manuscript of 'The Amazing Me'!"
As the bell rang for the end of class, the people in the class began to leave one after another. Harry returned to the back of the classroom, where Ron, Van Lin, and Hermione were waiting.
"Harry, yes, that's it—that's right—his head is a little higher......" Ron whispered with a smile on his face, mimicking the way Gilderoy had just looked.
"You've got enough, Ron, I'm going to throw you outside!"
"Alright, you two!" Hermione quickly stopped between the two, "We have business to do." ”
Hermione quickly took out the list of materials that she had copied, and of course, to be on the safe side, it was also mixed with a lot of potion recipes from Gilderoy Lockhart's book, which Hermione had obtained, although Hermione felt very uncomfortable with the things she remembered.
"Ready?" asked Van Lin in a low voice.
"Alright......" Harry calmed himself down, otherwise he would have exploded!
"Wait until the people are gone," Hermione said nervously, looking up and down.
"Okay......"
She walked over to Gilderoy Lockhart's table, clutching a piece of paper in her hand, and Van Lin, Harry, and Ron stood behind her.
"Uh—Professor Gilderoy Lockhart?" Hermione stammered, pulling out the state she had seen Lockhart when school had just started, though it was uncomfortable. "I want to- please help me buy some magic materials, you know, many of your potions are very valuable, and we want to learn from you. ”
She pulled out the piece of paper, her hands trembling slightly. "And, of course, the money"
Harry hurriedly took out the money bag he had prepared, it was all the savings of several people, and they couldn't go to Gringotts during the school year.
"I'm sure this magical material will help me understand the chronic venom ...... you talked about in Walking with the Corpse Eater."
"Ah, Walking with the Ghouls!" Gilderoy Lockhart cried, taking the list from Hermione and smiling at her, "that's probably my favorite book." Do you like it too?"
"Oh, yes. Hermione said eagerly, but no matter how she looked at Hermione's expression, it was very awkward, "The way you use the tea strainer to catch the last ghost is so clever......"
"Well, I'm sure no one would mind if I gave the best students of the year a little extra help. Gilderoy Lockhart said mildly, pulling out a huge peacock quill from his pocket. "Yes, wonderful, isn't it?"
He scribbled a frenzied signature on the note, then whistled as the grey owl flew over, the owl that Gildelow had used for his interrogation.
"Go!" Gilderoy flapped the owl's wings, and the owl chirped and flew out of the classroom window.
"As for the money, I think you're humiliating me. Gilderoy kept a grimace, "Some of my best students want to study the teacher's potions, and some funding is still necessary." Of course, this does not mean that I am better than other professors, it is just a teacher's love for students. ”
The four men had shocked expressions on their faces, and Gildero thought the four of them were intimidated by his generosity.
"Thank you...... Thank you, Professor!" Van Lin did not hesitate and took the money bag back.
The other three people also hurriedly thanked them, which was really an unexpected gain.
"Alright, you three, if it's all right, go out first, and I'll write back to my readers!" said Gildero, smiling.
The four of them were afraid that Gildelow would regret it, so they respectfully said goodbye and walked out quickly.
