Chapter 423: You Are the Lucky One

I had taken Potions class in the morning, but I didn't expect Snape's Defence Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon.

The Gryffindor students felt nothing but pain.

When he walked into the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom, he found Professor Snape sitting behind the podium.

Snape wouldn't have taken the poor performance in Potions class to heart and transferred his anger to this lesson, right?

Clearly, though, their fears were unfounded, and Snape, despite his very bad personality, made the distinction between the two things clear.

After all the students were seated, Snape stood up with his wand, his dark robes, his cold face, and his condescending gaze.

"You are a lucky one. Snape opened his mouth to say this.

But these words not only did not make the little wizards feel relaxed, but their hearts became heavier, because Snape actually showed a smile, very faint, but from the heart.

"Because you'll never find a more responsible Defence Against the Dark Arts professor than I am. Snape said calmly.

"Last year you learned the magic before the fifth grade, this year you will learn all the magic up to the seventh grade, as for the dark arts, it was just the beginning of the beginning, and then you will learn the more advanced black arts. ”

"In my teaching arrangement, the way you learned magic to destroy monsters last year was still too simple, and the methods were too gentle, and it didn't really play the role of training you to have a firm grasp of magic. ”

"Hiss......" The classroom was filled with the sound of inhalation.

Is that still called mild?

Not to mention the enemies that usually practice magic to deal with, just the poisonous leopard that he faced in the final exam of last semester, its speed is faster than the wind, and it can scratch through the magic armor formed by the armor talisman charm with one claw, and the werewolf alone is just a little brother in front of it. If it weren't for everyone uniting to fight the enemy together and supporting each other, there were really a few people who were almost torn apart, the real life and death.

Snape looked at the student's reaction and smiled disdainfully, "Do you still think you're good enough?"

"To be honest, last year's danger was only the final assessment, and I usually didn't subdue the monsters, and you chanted mantras slowly. As a result, in the face of the cystic leopard, how many people were so frightened that they couldn't even hold their wands steadily, and dozens of people formed a circle back to back. None of them actively attacked, they only dared to defend passively. ”

"You think that's a good performance?"

Everyone's expressions were a little embarrassed, because they really showed off to others during the summer vacation.

Snape was silent for a moment, then took a few quick steps from the podium and asked abruptly, "Can any of you tell me what the purpose of studying Defence Against the Dark Arts is?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to answer this question.

After waiting for a while, Snape named a Slytherin student, "Melvin Metcalfe." ”

A boy stood up, and he looked confident: "Professor, it should be to guard against black magic." ”

Snape said with a mean face, "You sit down for me, put your face on the table, and don't let me see your stupid face." ”

Melvin Metcalfe did as he was told.

"Is it true that if I use a weapon against you, you will honestly stand still? That's not black magic. Snape sneered.

"Dean Thomas, you answer. ”

Ron's side Dean kept tugging at Ron's arm, trying to get Ron to give him some hints.

But what could Ron know?

Dean seemed to weigh a thousand pounds on his waist, and the process of standing up lasted ten seconds, and the book was turned over and over by him.

Finally, he said with a heroic look on his face: "I think it will be easier to join the Auror office if you do well in this subject, I have heard that the salary of the Auror is very high......"

"Wow......"

"That's true. ”

"We're in the fifth grade, so we're definitely going to have to think about what we're going to do in the future. ”

Everyone just wanted to laugh at Dean, but after thinking about it, it seemed that he was really right.

Maybe that's the answer Snape wants.

Snape didn't know what to say, and seemed to laugh angrily, and he let out a "ha", and the hand holding the wand trembled slightly, as if the sentence "Avada sued" was about to be suppressed.

"Dean Thomas, I think you might be able to become an Auror by eating that book. Snape said.

His face turned cold, and he asked instead, "Harry Potter, what do you think?"

Without thinking, Harry said, "Knock down the enemy faster and faster." ”

Snape's withered hands didn't shake, he didn't praise Harry, and he didn't look for anyone else on the subject.

"You've learned so much magic, how many of you think you've mastered it?can use the most appropriate magic for any eventuality?Now that you're confronted with a Death Eater, who of you can confidently say that you can use a spell without thinking to make it impossible for a Death Eater to resist?Whether it's an unforgivable spell or a fainting spell, who has the courage to strike?"

There was even more silence in the classroom.

Snape's expression was calm: "So from this year onwards, I'm going to teach you not only magic, but also how to fight with magic. ”

"The fighting club will be reopened, but it's not the kind of play you had in your third year. When you're almost proficient in magic, I'll have new enemies for you in the next semester. ”

"The first Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson, the first thing you need to learn is ...... Shut your mouths. ”

The little lion and the little snake looked puzzled, they didn't speak.

With a wave of Snape's wand, everyone noticed something strange in their throats, and they opened their mouths to make a sound, but the classroom was extremely quiet, and after a while, all the students shouted and their faces turned red from the lack of oxygen.

Snape said unhurriedly, "Which of you can use magic right now? ”

Harry and Hermione immediately lifted the mute spell, and then quietly watched Snape perform, they understood that Snape wanted the students to get used to silent spells, so naturally they would not deliberately behave.

Snape became patient.

After a while, the students, who had just panicked, calmed down.

They found that the silent spell was not as difficult as they imagined, and many of them silently recited the spell with their mouths closed and waved their wands, and successfully used the magic.

Then they looked at Snape with a hint of interest.

Snape sneered, "Who made you open your mouths?" ”

With another wave of the wand, everyone's mouths were tightly closed, firmer than glue.

"Uh-huh......"

Snape said, "Is your opponent going to wait for you to open your mouth and say the incantation? The unexpected effect of not pronouncing the spell aloud can give you a head start on your opponents, and in many cases, it is often a sign of the right to live. Of course, not all wizards can do this, because it requires a lot of concentration and willpower, and if half of you can reach the passing level I have in mind by the end of fifth grade, I'll be satisfied......"

The students tried to unleash their magic without chanting a spell with hideous faces, while listening to Snape's continuous taunts in their ears.

It wasn't until the end of class that Malfoy was the only one who used the Levitation Charm.

Snape waved his wand and lifted the curse.

Everyone opened their mouths wide and exhaled, and for the first time, they felt that it was worse than killing them without opening their mouths to recite a mantra.

"The next class continues, and you'd better practice each magic tens of thousands of times outside of class. ”

Snape looked at everyone's disgruntled expressions, and didn't know what to think, and reminded him with a kind face: "I should let you know one thing, during the summer vacation, a wizard asked Dumbledore to be a professor in Defense Against the Dark Arts. She has a very different teaching philosophy from me, I want it to be applied in practice, she wants the course to be theoretically focused, to go back to the textbook, and it's best that you don't even touch your wand. ”

"Professor, where's she?" asked one of the students, impatiently.

Snape glanced at him, not angry, but a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "She's dead." ”

“......”

The students exchanged a look of regret.

Oh my God, there is such a perfect teacher, who is completely anxious about what the students are anxious about and thinks about what the students think.

But why did he just die, alas, it's a pity.

......
