Two hours later, on the covered bridge outside the main entrance of Hogwarts Castle.
A glossy fur eagle-headed horse with winged beasts carried Rossi in a circle.
At the same time as she landed, McGonagall, who had already spotted her traces, was not far away.
"Hello, I'm Minerva McGonagall, Deputy Headmaster of Hogwarts, what are you doing here?"
It doesn't feel good to have to get to know them again every time.
Muttering silently, Rosie took out the letter from the Ministry of Magic and handed it over, with a smile on his face:
"Hello, Professor McGonagall. My name is Rosie, a sixth-level Auror of the Ministry of Magic. Arranged by the Ministry of Magic, he applied for the position of professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts. β
She is actually very worried, in the original plot of "Philosopher's Stone", as the villain possessed by Voldemort, the existence of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Quirrell is undoubtedly a clue to promote the development of the entire plot.
Not to mention whether the plot of the Philosopher's Stone will collapse because he can't enter Hogwarts, just talking about herself, a player who has never seen many high-level spells, can really apply for a professorship?
In the details of the quest panel, it is written that once a quest fails, the entire quest will also fail.
"Apply for a position as a professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts?"
As if she hadn't expected her to come for this purpose, McGonagall asked in surprise, then lowered her head and opened the letter from the Ministry of Magic and examined it carefully.
"Yes!"
Although he didn't have much confidence in his heart, Rosie was very confident on the surface, "I believe that I will become a qualified Defense Against the Dark Arts professor." β
Lockhart can do it, I ......
She suddenly thought of Lockhart, whom the team had bumped into, and her thoughts froze.
Not...... Am I better than Lockhart in the books? At least I have been in school for more than twenty years!
At this time, McGonagall finished reading the letter, and looked at Rosie from head to toe with sharp eyes full of scrutiny:
"Miss Rosie, may I ask you, what is your age?"
"19 years old."
"What school did you graduate from?"
"My magic comes more from my family heritage."
"Family? And what is your family? β
Belch...... Can I say it's falling?
How did McGonagall become so serious because it involved educating students?
If I continue to ask like this, I'm afraid that I won't even enter Hogwarts, and I will be eliminated by her!
Buckbeak, who was beside him, seemed to sense his master's mood, and his orange eyes glared at McGonagall and snorted widely.
The chaotic thoughts that had passed rapidly were interrupted by this, and Rossi's eyes suddenly lit up when he thought of something, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers lightly.
In an instant, Buckbeak disappeared into invisibility.
"Professor McGonagall, have you started interviewing me now?" Rosie hooked her lips and smiled, her tone flat.
Her gaze paused for a moment at the place where Buckbeak had disappeared, and McGonagall's eyes softened slightly, no longer so sharp: "I'm just going to know your basic information, and it's up to Dumbledore to decide." β
With that, she turned around and made a "please" gesture, and then led Rosie towards the castle.
Is this the first level passed?
Secretly relieved, Rosie quickly followed McGonagall's side and said in a soft voice, "My family is in decline, and I am not worthy of mentioning my surname until the glory of my ancestors is restored." β
At this time, if you answer and say it directly, the effect is very different.
Sure enough, hearing Rosie's words, McGonagall's pace stopped slightly, and then put on a smile and comforted:
"You are already very good, such a young sixth-level Auror is extremely rare in the entire wizarding world, and your family will be proud of you."
"Hopefully......"
Passing through the foyer and up the marble staircase, the two quickly arrived at the door of the tower of the principal's office on the eighth floor.
"Candied pineapple."
As McGonagall's voice fell, the stone monster moved aside, and the moving spiral staircase slowly revealed.
"Follow me."
McGonagall turned her head and led Rosie up the stairs.
After a short conversation along the way, she had already learned from McGonagall that Dumbledore actually had two more satisfactory options for the professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts, and they were interviewing in the headmaster's room at this time.
"Tuk Tuk!"
McGonagall knocked on the door.
"Please come in!" Dumbledore's voice was heard.
"There's another candidate for the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professorship, Dumbledore." McGwen said, "It's a sixth-level Auror recommended by the Ministry of Magic. β
"Well, I see, an owl sent me a letter not long ago." Dumbledore smiled and nodded, his blue eyes turning to Rosie.
"Good afternoon, Professor Dumbledore."
Rosie bowed, then looked up at the two competitors on the couch.
With wavy hair and bright blue eyes, he smiled and nodded when he saw her, looking very personable.
Lockhart, is that him?
muttered silently, and then thought that this was normal.
The one sitting next to Lockhart was undoubtedly Quirrell, who had no turban on his head, apparently not possessed by Voldemort.
When he looked at Rosie, he smiled implicitly, looking a little naΓ―ve.
"Good afternoon, Miss Rosie."
Dumbledore nodded, pointing to the empty seat next to Lockhart, "Sit down and talk." β
"Thank you!"
Thanking him, Rosie walked over to the couch, shook Quirrell and Lockhart's hand, and sat down beside them.
"Minerva, sit down too."
Motioning for McGonagall to sit down, Dumbledore looked at him again, "Sir and Miss, first of all, I want to thank you for your recognition of Hogwarts. You are all talented in the wizarding world, and it is an honor for Hogwarts to be here to teach, and it is an honor for me. β
Lockhart and Quirrell had a smile on their faces, and they were clearly put to good use by the greatest wizard of the century.
"Headmaster Dumbledore (Professor), you're so kind." The three of them replied at the same time.
Smiling and shaking his head, Dumbledore continued, "But according to Hogwarts tradition, there is only one professor for Defence Against the Dark Arts, so I have to pick a more suitable one among you to take over this somewhat hot position. β
Speaking of this, he paused and looked directly at Rosie: "Miss Rosie, before you came, Mr. Lockhart and Mr. Quirrell had already given a detailed introduction to their experiences and showed their talents and abilities, so ......"
So it's my turn, huh?
muttered in his heart, and after hearing his sentence "What do you think are your advantages", Rosie muttered for a few seconds:
"I have many advantages, such as being young, having a small generation gap with students, making it easier to resonate with them, and facilitating the transfer of knowledge; The Auror's career has also given me a lot of knowledge, such as the Lich, the Basilisk, and the Silent ......"
Noticing that Dumbledore nodded slightly, while Lockhart and Quirrell beside him looked disapproving and unconcerned, Rosie took a deep breath and prepared to make a big move:
"For example, I know that Voldemort made multiple Horcruxes."
