Luke really didn't expect such a fuss.

Let him be a professor? What was Dumbledore thinking?

But......

Luke touched his chin and nodded, which seemed to make sense. After all, this matter started because of Luke, and asking Luke to find someone to come in was to open his mouth to Luke. It is really unreasonable to give this right to students. But if this power is given to the school manager, then it will allow other school directors to seize the handle and install their own people in it.

Therefore, this opening must not be opened.

If you think about it this way, since Luke's strength is in the past, and he is also quite new to the defense of the dark arts, then it is not too much of a problem to let Luke be the professor of the defense against the dark arts class.

After all, Dumbledore didn't expect the students to learn much in Defence Against the Dark Arts class this year. Older students will be able to pass exams, and younger students will be able to have a basic understanding.

And to be honest, he thinks that the quality of Luke's teaching may be a little better than that of Lockhart. After all, Luke's strength he saw with his own eyes.

In this way, Dumbledore's decision to let students become Defence Against the Dark Arts professors didn't seem so outrageous.

Seeing that Luke was not repulsed by this matter, Professor McGonagall did not show any relaxed expression on her face, but said with a rather serious face: "If you think it is inappropriate, don't be embarrassed, I will negotiate with Dumbledore about this matter." ”

She thinks and thinks about Luke as a professor. There is no precedent for this. Professors occasionally ask their proud students to help them take a class or two with little technical content, which is understandable. The right is to train the students.

However, with more than half of the school year to go, Luke is not as simple as just taking one or two classes.

"You know, Luke, the professor at Hogwarts is going to teach seven years, and he's very busy."

There are two classes for each age, and the progress of the two classes is not necessarily the same. Each class has to make a separate eucalyptus. When it comes to the small class teaching in the sixth and seventh grades, everyone's progress is different. Being a professor at Hogwarts is just as deadly, if not like a Defence Against the Dark Arts class, but it takes a lot of energy.

Being a full-time professor is a very tiring job. Not to mention working part-time as a professor while guaranteeing your academic performance. It is said that teaching and teaching are mutually beneficial, but the premise is that the time for teaching and learning is relatively balanced.

"I think you'll have to think about it, Luke. It's no joke. And Dumbledore made it clear that you still have to take this year's final exams, all but Defense Against the Dark Arts class. ”

Professor McGonagall spoke sincerely. She was genuinely discouraged.

Luke sat down in his chair, frowning and looking thoughtful. Apparently weighing the pros and cons.

Professor McGonagall didn't rush him. Just stared at Luke quietly. In fact, no matter what choice Luke makes, she will only support it. Of course, the professor of the current class can't be all bad.

This is a chance for Luke to show himself better. He needs that opportunity.

The downside is that Luke will be extra busy this semester. Even busy to the extent that he himself could not have imagined.

If she chooses to give up, then she will find a way to find a few old friends to help. She didn't want to tie her friend to the cursed position of a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.

But instead of taking the risk to a kid like Luke, Professor McGonagall thought it would be better to find a more reliable adult wizard.

In such a short period of time, an adult wizard with anti-black magic and anti-curse consciousness should not have problems.

But...... After thinking about it for a long time, Luke finally gave an answer that Professor McGonagall didn't want to hear.

"Well, Professor, I'll talk to Dumbledore myself. I can teach Defence Against the Dark Arts classes from grades one to four. Fifth year and above, I don't mix, you are affected, or simply let Dumbledore do it. After all, the fifth grade has to take the OWLS exam, and you can't just go to class. Small class teaching is also a reason, and I can't help it. ”

"I can be handed over to the first to fourth grades, and I am confident that I can do it well."

Moreover, the first to fourth grades themselves are the basic plates he has set for himself. What he wants to fight for most is this group of people. Higher-level people, unless they can really match the radio waves, can at most become a tool man like Eric, and it is impossible to really become their own person.

Professor McGonagall frowned at Luke's suggestion, then nodded in agreement.

"In that case, you should be able to do so, and you won't be too tired from the first to the fourth grade. The remaining three grades can be brought by Dumbledore, or we professors can take a little time to take them. ”

Luke smiled when he heard this: "Then it's decided." I'll talk to Dumbledore, and if he agrees, we'll follow the plan. ”

With that, she got up, said hello to Professor McGonagall, and walked out of her office.

Professor McGonagall ignored Luke leaving, still weighing the pros and cons of Luke's choice.

Luke must have had his own thoughts, everyone knows that. Dumbledore gave him this opportunity, apparently seeing what Luke needed now.

Raise awareness externally and recruit enough talent internally.

Luke was successful on both fronts.

Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and shook her head, "This kid ...... You still have to keep an eye on it. ”

……………………

"Is that what you think?"

Dumbledore looked at Luke with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

He didn't expect Luke to make such a request.

Originally, he thought that Luke would either accept or refuse, but put forward a new condition on the basis of the original, which was indeed something he did not expect. That way, the whole thing looks more reasonable.

"The academic performance of the first to fourth grade is not very anxious. I'm still a little confident about teaching the basics. At least better than Lockhart. ”

Although, Luke feels that as long as he is a person, he is better than Lockhart. After all, what did Lockhart do in class? Take acting lessons.

The main part of his course is drama acting. is still playing the plots and plots in his book, and the protagonists are all played by himself.

Originally, in the original book, the highlight of his class should have been to open the door to wizard duels for the little wizards. Give them a hands-on experience of wizard dueling.

But here, before he could start a dueling course, he was about to be ripped off by Luke.

Luke wouldn't be too ashamed to do it.

What's more, dueling classes can be offered from the first grade to the fourth grade. At the very least, it can reduce Luke's teaching pressure by more than half. The best way to mix classes.

After pondering for a moment, Dumbledore nodded, "That's a good plan. I'm here for the 7th grade class. Professors Flitwick and Sprout lead sixth-grade classes, and Professor Snape leads fifth-graders. ”

Professor McGonagall was not given additional teaching assignments due to the pressure of some of the administrative tasks that Professor McGonagall had to take on while Dumbledore was teaching.

If Professor McGonagall were given teaching tasks, then some of the administrative tasks that had been on Professor McGonagall would have to be placed on Dumbledore's body. Comparatively, Dumbledore would rather take on a little more teaching pressure.

"Then it's settled. I went back and prepared to teach. But relatively. I certainly can't have other professors teach me at the same time as I teach others. ”

Luke admits his predicament.

"I'm confident that I'll pass the exam, but the professor can't remember me as absent!"

This is a joke, of course. The professors are not stupid, and they rarely care if Luke comes to class or not. Now that Luke is a substitute professor, then naturally there is no reason to remember his truancy.

If you have nothing to do to make trouble for an excellent student, school manager, or temporary colleague, it's not unpleasant for yourself.

Dumbledore waved his hand angrily. After so many years of Qi cultivation and kung fu, once he met Luke, it was difficult for him to maintain his kindness. It's really hard for him to look at Luke as an absolute junior.

More often than not, the pattern of two people getting along is more like a bad friend. In comparison, Luke was more like a junior in front of Professor McGonagall.

Dumbledore felt like he couldn't think too much. Otherwise, somehow it would be a generation younger than Professor McGonagall.

"Go away, go away. I'll have to give assignments to other professors. ”

As he spoke, he was about to drive Luke away. Luke smiled, didn't ink, turned and left the principal's office. He himself has things to deal with. For Luke, the pros outweigh the cons.

Walking out of the principal's office, Luke retracted a smile on his face. If you want to get enough benefits from this substitute professor position, what you want to teach must be both practical and interesting.

After all, he has to deal with a group of little wizards who are indulged by the professors and have a rather average learning attitude. There are really a few people like Hermione who are as hardworking and talented as hermione.

Some students are like twins, talented enough to solve about 80 percent of the problems in the learning process. Then their score is around 80 percent.

Of course, there are also students who are neither gifted nor hard-working. Even such students make up the majority of the young wizards at Hogwarts.

Especially in the first to fourth grades, when there is no special matter, and the exams related to their graduation and future are like a reminder, their performance is always extraordinarily lazy.

Luckily, Luke's memory is full of good examples of professors. Lockhart's dueling lessons, as well as Lupin's and Barty Crouch Jr.'s, all have their own merits.

Luke didn't care if they would be blocked in the future. Ready-made ideas can be used when they should be used.

Defence Against the Dark Arts is taught in grades 1 to 4 in a systematic way. Of course, this is mainly because the professors changed too quickly. This year is a new record, and before it is a year, it is time for the professor to change.

Every time a professor is changed, there will be a different way of thinking and teaching methods, and it can only be said that it is the students who suffer the losses.

Just as Luke was about to go to the infirmary, take a look at Harry, and explain to him that he couldn't help Dobby, he suddenly saw a figure not far away, looking around in a panic. It's like you're looking for something.

Luke saw him from afar, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it. But he was still a step too late after all.

"Mr. Gaunt! Mr. Gaunt! ”

When Lockhart saw Luke, he hurried up to meet him, squeezing out a big smile on his face.

"Oh! It's been a long time since we've seen each other! ”

That's right, although both the job arrangement and the successor are fully prepared, but Luke has not yet made a move, and the current Lockhart has not been sold.

"It's been a long time, Professor Lockhart," Luke smiled politely, and then immediately asked in a preemptive voice, "I just saw that you looked like you were looking for something, how did you lose something important?" ”

Lockhart had wanted to bring it up again, and asked Luke to fund him a few gold gallons for collecting wind and writing a book. He'd been thinking about it for a long time. It's just that Luke has been talking about him all the time. However, he has always thought that his sincerity has not impressed Luke, so he has been working hard.

As everyone knows, his people are all used as stepping stones by Luke.

"Ah, nothing, it's just that I don't know where I lost one of my notebooks. Maybe I forgot about it in the classroom, and then it was taken by some student, and I forgot to give it back to me because I couldn't put it down. ”

Lockhart did his best to put on a big smile. In fact, he regretted it when he stood in front of Luke just now. Now is the time to pull investment? He counted everything he wrote in his diary. If those things are seen by others, he doesn't want to say whether his current reputation can be saved, and whether his life can be saved.

Although he sometimes seems silly. But when his reputation and life are at stake, his IQ is still able to occupy the high ground.

Luke could see Lockhart's horror, anger and chagrin, and the guy who refused for a while was quite interesting.

So he smiled and said to Lockhart, "By the way, Professor, I decided to give you an investment, I think your next book might be very interesting." ”

"Really?!" Lockhart was overjoyed, he didn't expect to have such a harvest today.

"Of course it's true!" Luke nodded earnestly.

"If you can make it out of Azkaban alive." He didn't say that.
