As a school of witchcraft and wizardry with a long history, Hogwarts professors are not that easy to do.

Although the requirements for the position of Defence Against the Dark Arts professors have been reduced again and again for decades due to the curse, the most basic work such as revising homework, writing lesson plans, and producing papers still requires the professors to do it themselves.

However, these simple things that require a lot of repetition are simply boring to the extreme.

So he came up with a solution.

……

"Are you sure you want Quirrell to be your teaching assistant?" Dumbledore asked while comforting the frightened Phoenix Fawkes as he looked helplessly at Dracula who suddenly appeared.

In fact, Dracula, who holds the Hogwarts title deed, basically has all the rights to the castle, and the anti-illusion and various defensive spells here have no effect on him at all, so he is completely free to haunt every corner of Hogwarts.

This time, he apparitioned into the principal's office, and frightened Fawkes, who was taking a nap.

Dracula stroked the big bird trembling in Dumbledore's arms, and sat down across from him.

"Of course, I'm not interested in doing those boring jobs." He said as he took the blood-flavored lollipop from Dumbledore's hand and put it in his mouth.

"Didn't you plan to agree to Quirrell's offer? He should have no problem teaching ability. ”

Dracula was so pleased with the idea he had just come up with that it would allow him to get out of the frivolous stuff and get up close and personal with Quirrell's little secrets, so why not?

Looking at the vampire in front of him, who was quite arrogant, Dumbledore rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little headache.

"Actually, to be honest, Hogwarts' Defence Against the Dark Arts class has a good reputation, and basically no serious wizard would want to come here as a professor." He explained earnestly, "So although I don't know much about Quirrell's teaching ability, since he is willing to join, I naturally welcome it." ”

"And now that school is almost open, we don't have the budget to hire an additional teaching assistant."

"It's all a minor issue." Dracula bites off the lollipop and throws it out the window, "Just give Quirrell half of my salary." ”

Dracula, who has accumulated thousands of years of wealth, said very proudly, "You can just write to Quirrell now and ask if you would like to come." As the de facto majority shareholder of Hogwarts, it shouldn't be too much to hire a teaching assistant, right? ”

Dumbledore had no choice but to pick up a quill, write a letter of appointment to Quirrell as a teaching assistant, and send it to the owl.

Seeing this, Dracula nodded in satisfaction and got up and walked to the window of the principal's office.

"Wait a minute, Professor Dracula." Dumbledore stopped suddenly.

Dracula turned around.

"Are you free now?" Dumbledore asked, "It's almost time for the professors to arrive, why don't you go to the Great Hall for a meal together?" ”

……

Dracula finally decided to go to the auditorium to meet with the professors.

After all, they are all colleagues who will work together for a long time in the future, and if it is unpleasant, it will not be convenient for him to have fun at Hogwarts......

Along with Dumbledore, Dracula descended the auto-rotating staircase of the Headmaster's office on the eighth floor to the fourth floor of the castle, then walked down the corridor to the corner on the other side, and then walked down a long stone staircase in a circle.

"Sure enough, it's much easier to jump out of the window." Dracula finished another blood-flavored lollipop and said boredly.

"Professor Dracula, you know, you're going to be a full-fledged professor soon." Dumbledore laughed and said, "Being a professor is to set a good example for your students. If some troublemakers learn to jump out of the window with you, I'm afraid Madam Pomfrey in the school infirmary will blame you. ”

"Besides, in order to keep troubled parents from finding fault with Hogwarts, you'd better keep your vampire traits hidden. Nicol told me that you, unlike other vampires, can do this. ”

"It's a nuisance." Dracula pouted.

However, for the sake of the interesting things that were about to happen at Hogwarts, he silently put back his sharp side teeth.

……

After a few moments, the two finally reached the door of the Great Hall of Hogwarts through a wide marble staircase.

As soon as he entered the Great Hall, he was greeted by a tall, lanky black-haired witch in an emerald green robe, and said to Dumbledore with a serious face:

"Albus, it's really time to strengthen the quality of staff in our school. Can you believe it, I almost got hit by a lollipop candy stick just past the entrance courtyard, and the students are not even enrolled yet! ”

Hearing the complaint of the vigorous sixty-year-old witch, Dracula's face froze.

He quietly hid the blood-smelling lollipop in his hand behind him and incinerated it to ashes with a black flame.

"Minerva, I'll warn them of it." Dumbledore forced a smile and pointed to Dracula beside him, "This is the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Brad Dracula. ”

"Professor Dracula, this is the Deputy Headmaster of Hogwarts, Minerva McGonagall." He introduced the two of them.

Professor McGonagall then turned to look at Dracula.

Seeing his bewitching and unique face, the surprise in her eyes flashed.

But she quickly adjusted her mood, showed a polite smile, and stretched out her hand to Degu, "Hello, Professor Dracula. ”

Dracula also politely shook her hand.

Hearing the commotion, the other professors in the auditorium also ran out, looking curiously at the "warrior" who had accepted the professorship of Defence Against the Dark Arts.

Dracula patiently shook hands with the strange Hogwarts professors one by one.

The lineup of professors at Hogwarts is very distinctive-

Among them was Dean Ravenclaw, Professor Flitwick, who was not much taller than the house-elves; There was the Hufflepuff Dean, who wore a thick hat covered in patches and was covered in dirt, Professor Sprout; There was Professor Kettleburn, who had only one arm and half a leg left......

In addition to the strange lineup, the professors always showed pity and pity in their eyes when they looked at Dracula, and even a witch wearing a pair of thick glasses began to sigh after seeing Dracula:

"Why can't such a handsome man think of choosing to be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor?"

Hearing her emotion, the corners of Dracula's mouth twitched.

"How do you feel about being a professor here...... Was it designed by that old guy Nicol? ”

He thought.
