Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Lesson for You (Part I)

Lockhart's promise has something in common with his novels that have stolen the experiences of other wizardsβ€”they all use a certain amount of artistic exaggeration.

The Anti-Black Arts Alliance has not yet approved Luo Cheng's application to join, so the so-called promotion of next month's election is naturally even more useless.

This made Luo Cheng very unhappy.

It didn't work out, and Professor Lockhart was embarrassed. So he found Luo Cheng and scolded him in front of him for the corrupt bureaucratic tendencies and cumbersome procedures of the Anti-Black Arts Alliance, and said that he had written a letter to the chairman's wife to ask her to blow the pillow wind, and this time it would definitely be done quickly.

Lockhart's sincere apology and remedies were forgiven by Luo Cheng, who decided not to use the curse on him for now, because Lockhart was still very attractive to women, especially middle-aged and older women. If the work of the chairman's wife is done, then the chairman will approve Luo Cheng's application sooner or later.

In the British wizarding family, the status of female wizards is not insignificant. This is not because wizards talk about women's rights, but because many male wizards have wasted their magic skills and are simply unable to beat their usual housekeepers - because they often use magic to do housework, female wizards are able to maintain a high level of magic.

Of course, in addition to the verbal apology, what made Luo Cheng forgive Lockhart was Lockhart's 20 gold gallons.

"Professor Luo Cheng, although I am a well-trained wizard who specializes in fighting the dark, this is the first time that I have been asked to teach children. I'm afraid that my spell will hurt the children because of the power of my spell, so can you please be my assistant in one class and help me town? ”

So on Tuesday afternoon, Luo Cheng appeared in the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.

Two professors appeared at the same time, which caused the students in the classroom to talk.

"Could it be that Professor Lockhart is giving us a dueling lesson?"

"That's exciting......"

"Ahem!"

Lockhart cleared his throat loudly to silence everyone.

He walked to the first row of the classroom and reached for Neville Longbottom's "Walking with Trolls" and held it in his hand, showing the blinking photo of himself on the cover.

"I," he said, pointing to his photograph and winking at him, "Gilderoy Lockhart, 3rd Class of the Order of Merlin, Honorary Member of the League Against the Dark Arts, five-time winner of Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award – but I don't talk about that, I'm not smiling to exorcise the ghost of Wanlun!"

He waited for everyone to laugh, and several of them smiled faintly.

"I see that you've all bought my full set of books - to be honest, I was going to give you a quiz in the first class to see if you had read my books. But today I have invited Professor Luo Cheng to be my assistant, so we can go directly to the exciting project! ”

"Now - beware! I'm on a mission to teach you to defend against the most evil the wizarding world has to know! You will face the most terrifying things in this classroom. But remember, as long as I'm here, you'll not be harmed. All I ask is that you remain calm. ”

Lockhart put a hand on the hood.

"I must ask you not to scream," Lockhart said in a low voice, "and that will anger them!" ”

The class held their breath as Lockhart lifted the hood.

"Yes," he said, as if playfully, "the Cornish elf that I just caught." ”

These little elves were iron-blue, about eight inches tall, with small pointed faces and very sharp and piercing voices, as if many budgies were arguing. As soon as the covers were removed, they began to chirp, jump up and down, shake the cage grille, and make all sorts of weird grimaces at those who came nearby.

A few students laughed, apparently not thinking that these little things were dangerous at all.

"Professor! Is this thing really dangerous? ”

"Don't judge the danger of the enemy in front of you with your fixed mind! That's the first lesson I'm going to teach you! Lockhart exclaimed, "Then let me see what you do with these little things!" ”

He opened the cage door.
