Chapter 1: Appearance
The weather was sunny and fresh, the sun was shining warmly on the green lawns in the garden, the breeze was soft and cool, and the sky was clear and transparent.
The scenery outside the window is just right, and in the chair in the room, a handsome young man with blond curly hair is anxious, because of a letter in his hand, and there is a big "H" fire paint seal on the back of the letter. This is not an ordinary email, but an offer from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry:
Send:
Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart
We are honored to invite you to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts and if you accept, we hope you will write back with any other materials you need for the course and any other reasonable requests.
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore
Lockhart didn't know if he was a time-traveler at this time, he remembered that he also had a name named Zhang Taye, and when he woke up, he became Lockhart, and he actually didn't know whether Zhang Taye had crossed into Lockhart's body, or Lockhart dreamed of Zhang Taye.
But there are all kinds of indications that the "Harry Potter" series of movies he saw in another memory are real, and the resurrection of Voldemort is also real.
It's been a year since he came to this world to become Lockhart, and in addition to continuing to write books to cheat money, he has also exercised his magical abilities.
Lockhart wasn't a waste, he was a gifted half-blood wizard who graduated from Ravenclaw House at Hogwarts, and from the moment he entered the house, he was one of the house's most gifted students, graduating with honors in all subjects. (Setting of the original Harry Potter author)
Unfortunately, after graduating, he didn't get on the right path, and after a brief stint as an Auror, he left the Ministry of Magic because he was afraid of death. Using his mastery of memory magic, he has become an internationally renowned figure and author, a third-class Medal of Merlin, an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts League, and a five-time winner of the Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award.
If you don't teach at Hogwarts, you may have escaped, but should you escape the arrangement of fate so shamefully? After Voldemort returns, a famous half-blood wizard like Lockhart must have no good fruit to eat, and he is also curious, if he doesn't touch Ron's broken wand, what fate can do to him?
Thinking about his identity, he has to say that he is really a successful liar, who has never taken risks, but is known as the bravest adventurer, who has never caught a Death Eater, but has a great reputation among the Aurors.
In order to prevent accidents during the year, in addition to studying a large number of magic books to gain theoretical knowledge, Zhang Taye also did all kinds of self-training.
"Live, and you have to live well!" was Lockhart's only thought, and with his knowledge of the future, Lockhart reviewed the basic spells that all Hogwarts graduates should master, as well as what he learned during his time as an Auror.
"Now that I know a qiΔ, then I should be the protagonist!"
"Jim, pack up, I'm going out to practice magic. β
"Master, your most faithful elf Jim reminds you that the signing of your new book, The Amazing Me, will be held at the Blotted Bookstore this afternoon. β
Damn, I almost forgot, after having a house-elf, memory becomes irrelevant.
"Get the dress ready, the new one. β
Lockhart quickly changed into his dress and stepped into the fireplace: "Blotted Bookstore!"
"Smile here, Mr. Lockhart! pretty! worthy of the man with the most beautiful smile. A reporter ran around taking pictures of Lockhart, and each flash was accompanied by a puff of smoke.
Surrounded by book lovers, Lockhart with curly blond hair, big blue eyes and a smile that shows 20 shiny teeth is the focus of today's bookstore. But Lockhart's focus is not here.
"Why hasn't Harry Potter shown up yet? This is supposed to be the time, huh?" smiled as he tried to remember the plot.
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and the sharp-eyed Lockhart saw a red-haired man and a blonde man scuffling together. ββThere are discrepancies, but it's finally here!
"Beat him!
"Stop, Arthur!" the bookshelf in the distance was toppled by two entangled men, one of whom was a well-dressed middle-aged man who struggled to break free of the other man and pulled his wand out of his arms.
"Damn Weasley, pure-blooded traitor! β
"Lucius Malfoy!" The man on the other side also pulled out his wand, and saw that a magical battle was about to break out, and the people around him hurriedly retreated for fear that they would be hit by a curse. Just as they were about to speak, Lockhart approached the crowd and waved his wand, "Left and right!" - just one moment separating Malfoy and Weasley, both of them falling to the ground.
"Gentlemen, what kind of hatred is there, to dance with knives and guns in a temple of knowledge and a sacred place like a bookstore, even if you don't hit the child, it's not good to hit the flowers and plants. The kids are watching!"
Ignore Malfoy and Mr. Weasley, who fell to the ground. Lockhart looked at the black-haired boy with lightning scars on the side, "Isn't this Harry Potter?" said Lockhart holding out his hand and dragging Harry out of the crowd.
"Is Mr. Weasley alright?" said Harry, looking back at Arthur Weasley.
"He's fine, it's a forced movement magic, are you Harry, Harry Potter, James Potter's son?"
"Yes, sir. Do you know my father?" Harry became excited at the hearing of his father's name.
"He's my bravest comrade-in-arms!A true hero!No fear in the face of the mysterious man!" Anyway, the Jaimes won't jump out and say they don't know him, whatever they want, not to mention that they are indeed comrades-in-arms of Harry's parents, but Harry's parents don't know him. "I'm sorry that your mother is also a beauty. β
"Ladies and gentlemen, today is a fortunate day, although it is a bit unpleasant, and it is a great honor for our hero, Harry Potter, who defeated the Dark Lord, to come here to buy my autobiography at the Blotted Bookstore...... I'd give him the book!" another round of applause, "but he didn't know." Lockhart continued, shaking Harry. "He'll soon get something more valuable than the Amazing Me - a truly magical Gilderoy Lockhart! I'll be the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts!"
The crowd applauded and cheered, and the cameras flashed and flashed. Lockhart, who was clinging to Harry's picture with him, saw Lucius Malfoy, secretly stuffing a small leather notebook into Ginny Weasley's old stack.
It seems that handing over that diary to Ginny was his plan, not a whim.
