The next day, when the students walked into the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom full of curiosity, they found Umbridge waiting for them in the classroom.

Everyone sat quietly in their seats, after all, they didn't know if the teacher was better at talking. If you're like Snape, it's not a smart idea to speak out loud in class, unless you're desperate for points or even confinement.

"Good afternoon. Umbridge said.

"Good afternoon, Professor....." some of the students replied to her in a scattered manner.

"That's not good, and I'd like to hear you repeat the phrase 'Good afternoon, Professor Umbridge.'" Umbridge said in her usual sweet voice.

"Good afternoon, Professor Umbridge. This time, the students responded to her neatly.

"Very well, now I want you to put away your wands and take out your quill pens and notebooks. Umbridge said.

Putting away the wand was something that no one had ever heard in any teacher's class, after all, this was a magic school, and almost all classes required magic. Even flying lessons are needed, after all, if you fall from your broom in the sky, you have a wand in your hand to increase your chances of inventory, right?

For a wizard, a wand can be said to be his second life, so only the Ministry of Magic has the right to destroy a person's wand, which also shows how important a wand is to a wizard.

Most of the students exchanged glances, hesitating to put away their wands. As for Louis's words........ Even if he doesn't put it away, what does Umbridge dare to do?

"Your Defence Against the Dark Arts classes have always been unsystematic, have they?" said Umbridge in a sympathetic tone, "poor boys, so your grades on magic exams will be lower than the average for other classes. But you can't be blamed for that, after all, you haven't studied the books of the systems that the Ministry of Magic has planned. ”

Umbridge pulled out his wand and tapped it on the blackboard behind him, writing three lines: 1. Understand the principles of defensive magic. 2. Learn to discern when to use defensive magic. 3. Learn the actual defensive magic.

The students were taking notes with quill brushes underneath, and Louis was bracing his head in a daze, he hated this kind of formalistic class the most.

Umbridge glanced around the class, relieved that all the students were taking notes there as she said. Although she also saw Louis in a daze there, she wisely chose to ignore it and not provoke people she couldn't afford to provoke, which was her principle of doing things.

"I suppose all of you have a copy of the Principles of Defence Against the Dark Arts, don't you?" asked Umbridge, looking at what she had already copied below.

The students below agreed in twos and threes.

"Ahem......" Umbridge cleared her throat, "I think we're going to have to reinvent the rules, kids." When I ask you questions, you just have to answer 'yes, Professor Umbridge' or 'No, Professor Umbridge'. ”

"Now I'll ask again, do you all have Defence Against the Dark Arts?" Umbridge continued.

"Yes, Professor Umbridge. The students replied together.

"Merlin's beard........ This was the brainwashing method of many years ago......." Louis covered his face in shame.

Although he guessed that Fudge was afraid that Dumbledore would turn Hogwarts into his own school, so that all the underage wizards would listen to him and overthrow him in this way. Therefore, the purpose of the Ministry of Magic to intervene in Hogwarts is to win over those underage wizards, after all, these underage wizards are worshipping heroes, and most of them support Dumbledore.

However, Louis thought that Fudge would find a way to make the young wizards think that the Ministry of Magic was good, and corrupt them with sugar-coated cannonballs. The worst thing is that Umbridge has been slandering Dumbledore in class, so that the students can realize that Dumbledore is not that great.

Unexpectedly, Fudge actually used such a low-level brainwashing method, did he really think that the Ministry of Magic opened it by his own family?

"Now turn to page five. Umbridge said.

Louis simply lay down on the table, he was not even in the mood to move now.

Umbridge's lectures were boring, as boring as Professor Binns, who taught the history of magic. No, even more boring than Professor Binns's class. At least what Professor Binns is talking about is history, and it can be useful to remember. Umbridge, on the other hand, talks about boring stuff that is completely unusable, and it can be said that it will not be used at all after graduation.

Just as Louis was about to fall asleep, Umbridge abruptly stopped his lecture.

"Is class over?" Louis asked the little maid beside him with sleepy eyes.

"It's only been ten minutes, young master. The little maid replied, "It must be that Hermione didn't open the book as Umbridge said." ”

Louis suddenly became energetic, and he looked in Hermione's direction, this was the first time he had heard that Hermione would actually listen to her professor in class, and still do what she liked most: read a book!

"What's wrong, dear?" Umbridge stared at Hermione tightly, though a chill emanated from her tone.

"I have a question, Professor. Hermione said.

"Is there anything you don't understand about this chapter I'm talking about?"

"No, it's not about books. ”

"Well, please keep opening the book. Umbridge cracked her mouth, revealing her teeth, "If you have any other questions, please ask me outside of class." ”

"What I have questions about is the question of your course objectives. Hermione continued.

Umbridge couldn't try to ignore Hermione anymore.

In fact, at the beginning, Umbridge noticed that the little girl in front of her did not open the book as she said, but stared at her in a daze. However, Umbridge didn't plan to trouble her directly, after all, this was her first class, and there was no need to mess up the first class.

But now the little girl actually said that she had a problem with her course goals, which made her unable to ignore it. After all, as she is a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, some people question her course goal, that is, question her qualifications to be a professor of this class!
