Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Cursed Defense Against the Dark Arts Lesson
Louis and Linda glanced at each other, they didn't expect Hermione's reaction to be so big, they thought it was just an ordinary liking, but now they look like crazy fans in the star chasers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Sorry, I didn't mean to be that loud... I was just.... Professor Lockhart is such a remarkable person...."Hermione seemed to realize that she was very out of shape, and he said incoherently with a red face.
"I can understand that everyone has their own idols. Louis waved to show that he didn't care, after all, he had seen a lot of star-chasers in his previous life, so he was only momentarily surprised by Hermione's reaction. After all, he didn't expect Hermione, who was arguably calm and precocious, to do the same.
Linda nodded her head and said she didn't care, and although they had different opinions about Professor Lockhart, it didn't mean they had to argue about it.
They then walked into the dining room on the way, laughing and laughing, and Hermione parted from them because she was going to the Gryffindor table for lunch.
"Looks like our Professor Lockhart is very charismatic. Louis sighed as he ate the chicken legs. He wasn't mocking Lockhart, Louis was genuinely envious of him. After all, in terms of the means of picking up girls, Lockhart is estimated to be the most powerful person he knows, after all, he has cultivated to the highest level of pickling girls: be!
"If Lockhart continues to write books and deceive people, it will be fine, but if he dares to come to Hogwarts to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, it means that something will definitely happen to him this semester, and it will be a big deal. The little maid said slowly.
"Uh-huh, you mean the cursed Defence Against the Dark Arts class that is rumored around the campus?" asked Louis with interest.
"Yes, young master. Linda replied, "It is said that Voldemort went back to school to apply for the position of Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, but Dumbledore did not make him a teacher at the school. Since then, the Defence Against the Dark Arts teachers have been attending the school for a maximum of one semester, and no one has ever been able to last two semesters. So it was rumored that Voldemort had not applied for a successful Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, so he cursed the class. ”
Louis frowned. Although he knew this statement, it was very difficult to curse a class. It's not that Voldemort can't do such a thing, only that it's very much more than worth the loss. After all, the professor of the Defence Against the Dark Arts class has his own set of skills for dealing with the dark arts, which increases his success rate of cursing this class.
And, depending on who you curse, you say you need to pay a different price. Just like if you want to curse Dumbledore to death, Voldemort is estimated to have to pay the same price, if the curse can be successful casually, then Dumbledore has long been cursed to death by the dark wizard.
"I don't think it's because of Voldemort's curse that the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher changes every year. Louiskau said.
"Are you saying that Voldemort didn't put a curse on Defence Against the Dark Arts?" asked the little maid suspiciously, "Then why does Defence Against the Dark Arts change teachers every year for various reasons, if it's just a coincidence, it's too coincidental, right?"
Indeed, it would be far-fetched to say that it is a coincidence to change teachers once a year. If it is two or three years in a row, it will be forgotten, but after Voldemort's failed application, the teacher will change every year, and anyone will feel that there is a problem, and it is no wonder that the school will spread the saying that the defense against the dark arts class is cursed.
"Not to mention whether Voldemort can do such a curse, even if he can do it, he will have to pay a huge price, which is very uneconomical. "If I had to give an explanation for this, there was a way to do it, and it would be very small." ”
"Is there a way?" said the little maid, looking very surprised.
"It's very simple, just get the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher every year to the point where he can't take the second year in a row, it's a very simple thing for Voldemort. Louis said with a grin.
"That's right, Voldemort would have dealt with one teacher a year. Linda showed a look of sudden realization, but then she lowered her head and asked suspiciously, "If you say that, in the years that Voldemort disappeared, he should not be able to defeat the teacher who is proficient in the defense of the dark arts, right?"
Louis told Linda that Voldemort had possessed Professor Quirrell and entered Hogwarts in an attempt to steal the Philosopher's Stone. And Linda also knew that Voldemort was very weak, and it stands to reason that even ordinary adult wizards could not beat it.
"It's a simpler question, do you think if I'm going to make a guy unlucky, I need to do it myself?" Louis said with a smile.
"I see. Linda now understood completely.
Voldemort's previous power was very large, so if he wanted to deal with a teacher, would he need to do it himself? If it was okay once or twice, he would definitely feel tired of having to do it himself every time. The easiest way to do this is to have a trusted follower do it for him, and at the time of his downfall, his followers should not have stopped their actions against the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.
