"After I send her to school, I'm going to talk to the centaurs about joining forces. Lockhart finished the milk in front of him, "Then come back, we'll have a few days of combat training and get ready to go." ”

"Hmm. Cyreth asked, "Do you think centaurs are so talkative?"

"I'll convince people with reason—let's go. Lockhart grabbed Ginny's arm to prevent her from wrapping herself around Hermione again.

"Oh. Ginny meekly followed him out of the Shell Hut.

They apparitioned to Hogsmeade, and Ginny, out of sight, suddenly wrapped around him again, nearly tearing off the invisibility cloak that covered his head. Finally explaining the situation to Aberforth, he grabbed her and quietly returned to the Room through the Pig's Head Bar, where she pounced on her and asked for something more intimate.

"There's no one here—"

"I'm going to get down to business, get down to business!" Lockhart said with a straight face, "Now, you obediently go back to the Gryffindor common room and get ready for the next lesson." When it's over, you can do whatever you want. ”

"Alright, that's done!" said Ginny excitedly, obediently running out of the room of requirement.

――

It's so easy to deceive, when it's over, I'll let Snape seal the secret passage, and you can stay at Hogwarts until the effects are over!

By the way, since you're here, let's find two girls first and suck up all the blood that should be sucked in the past two days before going to find the centaurs.

――

Half an hour later, Lockhart left the campus through the side door of Hogwarts contentedly, drinking blood, especially the blood of the fine little witches, which not only gave him more control over his body, but also made him feel happy.

Negotiations with the centaurs will also go well.

There's no reason why it shouldn't go well.

If it doesn't work, use strong.

Hey.

Lockhart went to the top of the unicorn couple's habitat to take a look, and they were still fine, with the husband guarding his wife. Lockhart left satisfied. Fly deeper into the Forbidden Forest.

It's tricky to find the leader of the centaurs in the middle of nowhere, but it's easy to find one and let him take him to the horse. Soon, the leader of the Order of the Phoenix had another successful meeting with the leader of the centaurs.

――

"What's the matter, the unicorn is at least a month away from giving birth. Ma Guoren made no secret of his unwelcome to Lockhart. "We'll get cord blood for you then. ”

"Oh, there's no rush on that. Lockhart said calmly. "Tsk, you don't even have a place to sit here. ”

"Centaurs live while standing and die while standing. A young centaur said unceremoniously.

"Oh, there are ideals, there are ambitions. Lockhart was in a good mood and ignored him, "Ma Guoren, I suggest you drive the centaur next to you away, there are some things I want to talk to you about." ”

"Go away. Ma Guoren said without thinking. If the wizard in front of him was going to be unfavorable to him, a few guards would not be able to stop him at all.

Several centaurs left their leader's side, leaving Corngaren and Lockhart staring at each other.

"Allow me to sit and speak. With a wave of the Elder's wand, Lockhart saw a sapling burst through the ground behind his heels and quickly grow into a chair in which he sat down and sat comfortably.

"What the hell is going on. Ma Guoren was shocked by this hand again, and his four hooves paced a few steps left and right almost subconsciously.

"What's next I'm going to discuss. The fate of the centaurs in the future is at stake. Lockhart said, "And this—"

"The fate of the centaurs is in the hands of the centaurs!" the other unceremoniously interrupted him.

"What are you anxious about. I didn't say it was in my hands, it's up to you to decide. Lockhart had already made up his mind that if the centaurs in front of him still didn't agree, then use the Imperius Charm, although he had never used the Imperius Charm on creatures other than wizards, but it wouldn't be too bad. As for the anger of the centaurs afterwards. Then think again.

"Tell me about it. Ma Guoren resisted his impatience.

"I'm ready to deal with the Adversary whose name I can't even name. Lockhart said in a slow, clear voice, "But I may have a handful of people in my plan, and I hope you centaurs will help me protect the students of Hogwarts—"

"Protect the students?" Ma Guoren sneered, "Wizard, you are taking the centaurs for fools again." The professor at Hogwarts is so strong, he actually needs us aliens to protect the young beasts for you?And what does it have to do with the students in the school when you deal with that adversary? I'm afraid your plan is not simple, and the enemy is not small. ”

"Oh, I like to deal with smart people like you, and I can never take advantage of you, but I don't have to talk too much. "It's not convenient to reveal the plan to you, but it's true that there will be a lot of enemies attacking Hogwarts." As long as you are willing to help, after we win the war, not only will we restore our previous policy towards the centaurs, but we can even give more ......"

"For example, if I ask Hogwarts to relocate the school and give the centaurs a territory within a radius of a hundred miles, can you agree? The centaur looked at Lockhart with his chest crossed.

"If Hogwarts weren't here, who would have driven the Muggles out for you? Lockhart shook his head, "You have a bad attitude, you don't look like you're willing to talk at all." ”

"Why should I be willing to talk, centaurs don't get involved in the infighting between wizards!"

"You don't want to be a part of the wizard infighting, but the wizards are going to deal with you when they're done - what is the Ministry of Magic doing to you now? Lockhart said in a tone of regret that the magic had quietly shrouded the other party. "But now that there are people who are willing to stand up and take the lead against the Death Eaters, and even those who are willing to face the demon head-on, do you have to wait until all the resistance is gone, and the Death Eaters' butcher's knives fall on you, are you willing to struggle?"

"It's just your guess, why did the Death Eaters deal with us?"

"Then why did they change their policies towards you and reduce your living space? There are many things that don't need a convincing reason for everyone, they and the hemp wizards who are human can be slaughtered without mercy, and you can guarantee that they will not deal with you when they are idle in the future?" A friendly organization of wizards of the elves and centaurs, who help us win the war, are responsible for your own survival and reproduction. ”

"Well, it seems to be true, but with just a few words, you want us to join another equally dangerous war in advance in order to avoid a danger that has not yet come?" ”

"Of course, I can't just rely on a few words to make you my helpers, I would like to give a guarantee, after the war is over, the wizarding law will be reformulated, and the centaurs will be qualified to participate in the formulation of laws related to you, how?" Lockhart said with a smile, "As for whether you can defeat the mystery man, what do you say?

Ma Guoren stared at Lockhart for a moment, choosing to believe him.

"We have no interest in participating in the development of wizarding laws, but there are several requests. He spoke. "First of all, I wouldn't overdo it if I wanted the centaurs to be creatures of the same level as wizards, not an animal from the Encyclopedia of Fantastic Creatures. ”

"Not excessive. Lohar nodded in agreement. "The Centaur Liaison Office of the Magical Creatures Management and Control Division will be part of the Department of Magical Exchange and Cooperation. ”

"I also demand that the Forbidden Forest be designated as centaur territory, and that human wizards be forbidden to enter. ”

"It's unlikely, but both sides can take a step back," Lockhart shook his head, "The Forbidden Forest has become an exclusive reserve for centaurs, wizards are not allowed to enter without greeting, and wizards and centaurs will remain friendly with each other, attacking each other will be considered a crime, wizards attacking centaurs will be captured by the Ministry of Magic for trial, and centaurs attacking wizards will also be punished by the centaur leader, and the results of the handling must be notified to each other, how." ”

"Yes. Ma Guoren was very satisfied with this, "So, how do you need me to help you?" ”

"On April 30th, the Savior will lead the Order of the Phoenix to retake Hogwarts, and I want you to lead the fighting centaurs to join Hogwarts after Hogwarts declares their fight against the Ministry of Magic. ”

"You're going to deal with the Adversary somewhere else?"

"You guess it, at least I promise he won't need you centaurs to deal with it. Lockhart stood up, waved his wand again, and the chair continued to grow, soon becoming a large straight tree. "The Deputy Headmaster of Hogwarts will be able to negotiate with you on specific matters. Oh...... I also have a small request, since centaurs and human wizards are friendly, then Ferenze-"

"He will be accepted back into the community. ”

"Well, then it's almost time to leave," said Lockhart, "but at last I have to be reminded that I am a very superstitious man......

"I know what you're trying to say, if your plan leaks ahead of time or if something goes wrong in execution, you'll blame the centaur for it, right? Ma Guoren said angrily, "Meaningless threats, the centaurs do what they say!"

"You're amazing, Mr. Ma Guoren, I almost believe that there really is a prophet among the centaurs. Lockhart easily hid his embarrassment. "Goodbye then. ”

"Don't send it!"

――

It's been a few days since he's discovered the magic of momentum, and he's now more proficient at using it, and doing these things is as easy as his fingers.

But Lockhart knew in his heart that this ability would not help him defeat Voldemort, because the opponent's momentum was likely to be stronger than his own.

Now that all the preparations seemed to be done, all he had to do was go and meet Snape to discuss a few things in person, and then he could wait quietly for the battle to retake the Ministry of Magic to begin.
