Draco was sitting at the Slytherin table, looking as usual.

I don't know how his father dealt with the elves who sneaked away.

Aini has no interest in Dobby's current situation.

He was most interested in the same thing as McGonagall right now.

Who did Dumbledore go to for help before?

Nicol Lemay?

That's really an expert on all sorts of historical legacies.

After all, for most wizards, the old gentleman himself is a part of history.

For example, "The History of the Development of Modern Alchemy" can almost be regarded as Lemay's autobiography.

There is also the "General History of France", in which there is a figure of Le May everywhere, or almost every Frenchman who can be mentioned in history has more or less intersected with him.

From 600 years ago until this century.

It is only in recent decades that Lemay has begun to fade out of sight for the sake of his own schemes.

However, he still had a great influence in France, both among wizards and Muggles.

Over a long period of time, Lemay has accumulated not only popularity, but also countless wealth.

There are not a few magic nodes that he has mastered, and the large node that has been built into an ecological park is beyond the imagination of many people.

The last time Newt mentioned it, he said it was bigger than the Hebdili Dragon Sanctuary.

Ani misses the cuties who were fostered there so much now, and when England settles down, she can ask Sylvie to help build a new ecosystem deep in the Forbidden Forest.

Speaking of which, the tribe of the centaurs is called the depths of the Forbidden Forest, the caves where the eight-eyed giant spiders are raised are called the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and the habitat of unicorns is also called the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

But even today, Aini is ignorant of the limits of the Forbidden Forest.

It was as if there were no borders, and there was no entrance other than the line next to Hogwarts.

Maybe......

"Well, I know you're more interested in what's next, but allow me to babble a little bit before you eat."

A loud voice interrupted Aini's thoughts, and it was only then that he realized that the sorting ceremony was over and the students were all seated at their long tables.

"First of all, I would like to express my regret about what happened to Professor Quirrell last year, and introduce you to the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor."

Speaking of this, before the headmaster could signal, the big white fang, who was good at stealing the scene, stood up with a swish.

"Good evening, kids."

The exaggerated voice of a well-known writer wafted through the audience, and as his most frequently used spell, Lockhart's mastery of the [Loud Spell] was only below the [Oblivion Curse].

"I think you're no stranger to me, and a lot of people have been to book signings."

Lockhart glanced at the Slytherin table and was a little disappointed to see that Draco wasn't excited.

For those who could bring him fame and profit, Lockhart always remembered clearly.

Even if the young master of the Malfoy family just bought a set of books at the book signing.

"I'm very well-known, but just in case, I need to introduce myself briefly."

"I'm ......," he said, pointing his wand to his face, "Gilderoy Lockhart, 3rd Class Medal of the Order of Merlin, Honorary Member of the Anti-Dark Arts League, Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award......

"Professor Dumbledore."

A voice interrupted Lockhart's self-introduction, and Ani rose from the teacher's seat.

"Professor, today the students are rushing from all over England to London, and from there to the Scottish Highlands, and I think everyone is already hungry, can we eat first?"

Aini didn't even glance at Lockhart's seat on the side, he wasn't here to listen to this megalomaniac tell a bad story.

Moreover......

Lockhart, who is used to being a villain, can only be a messy waste at Hogwarts.

Angry, jealous and irrational, Lockhart had a big effect on him.

After all, among the characters who appeared in Harry Potter's second year, only little Riddle and the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor are more compatible~

Before Lockhart could continue to speak, the old headmaster hurriedly announced the start of the banquet, and the long table, which was still empty, was suddenly filled with all kinds of food.

Lockhart looked left and right, and after hanging himself here, Ani sat back as if nothing was wrong, as if he didn't exist.

Dumbledore nodded slightly, motioning for him to continue his speech.

The smile on Lockhart's face grew stiffer......

The laughter and conversation at the long table opposite were about to lift the roof, and he was talking about a ghost!

The lesser of the two embarrassments, Lockhart sat back stupidly.

As a creature whose sanity is inversely proportional to the degree of human understanding, the Great White Fang was able to maintain an average level of intelligence until most people could not figure out his color.

However, after sitting down, Lockhart still muttered unwillingly, this is the script of the speech that he has worked hard for half a month to revise repeatedly, and it was scrapped after only reading the beginning, which is so distressing.

Lockhart turned his head angrily and gave Aini a big smile.

As a speculator who has no real talents, or uses his talents in the wrong place.

One of the reasons why Lockhart was able to mix well is due to his excellent intelligence capabilities.

He was always well-informed, making it easier to sift through the prototypes for the next book and to courting the powerful.

At least don't mess with those who can't afford to offend.

Seeing that Aini completely ignored his overtures, Lockhart turned his head and cut the steak without embarrassment.

Over the years, Lockhart has traveled the world looking for "inspiration" for new books, so he is also well-informed.

The natural breath of England's inconspicuous reputation is an out-and-out behemoth abroad.

It's no secret that Nature's Breath is the Scamander's estate, and one of Lockhart's close friends has told him something.

Coupled with the fact that Ani had rudely interrupted his speech today, Lockhart knew that this was not someone he could handle.

If you can't get close, it's better to stay away.

I really can't afford to provoke it, I can't afford to provoke it.

The two of them were quiet here, but they cast a pair of playful glances from the other seats.

Aside from Lockhart, the person who has been in contact with Ani for the least time here has known him for more than a year.

This was the first time anyone had seen him treat someone so rudely.

Thinking of Ani's usual gentle and polite behavior, as well as the convincing eyes of the students when they talked about the Transfiguration professor, and the several furry babies who were always full of energy, they believed that there must be something hidden in it.

Everyone naturally believes that the problem will not be with Aini, so ......

A series of suspicious, strange, or meaningful gazes are cast on someone who is smiling.

Young man, something is wrong with you~

Feeling the inexplicable gaze around him, Lockhart couldn't even hold back his mask-like smile.

How does it feel that Hogwarts is different from when he was in school?

I wonder if it would be better to go out first and then open the door again and come in?
