Chapter Thirty-Nine: This Is the Master's Task
The bell finally rang, much to Umbridge's relief, but a bit of gritted teeth.
Harley turned back so neatly, looking at it that she didn't expect to get an answer from herself.
So what was her previous actions? Aren't you fooling yourself?
This made Umbridge's hatred for Harley even stronger, after all, she was a small-bellied person.
However, Umbridge could not have a seizure yet, and could only continue to put a smile on his face.
Standing at the front of the classroom, Professor Trelawney and Umbridge felt the opposite, she genuinely felt that Hallie was a good student and that what she had done was not in vain.
Although Harley's spirituality is insufficient, she has no talent for learning divination, and the homework she handed in is unrealistic, not in line with the textbook, and she does not have the spirit of a divination talent like herself, who has heavenly eyes and discernment.
But he has never given up on Hallie, and has been teaching her "carefully".
Although he also has the reputation of coveting Hallie, and wants to attract more students to himself through her divination class, but you just don't give up!
And now, when Hallie didn't communicate with herself at all, she took the initiative to drag Umbridge for herself, preventing her from continuing to press her with her gaze, and bought herself valuable time to think before class.
Of course, Professor Trelawney didn't need his students to buy time because he didn't prepare his lessons, but he was just a little afraid of the vicious witch's provocation.
After all, divination has always paid attention to the birth of each other, and Umbridge is so ugly, he must be a jealous and capable scumbag, and he will definitely make things difficult and targeted for outstanding talents like himself.
Now that Hallie has "dragged" Umbridge, giving Professor Trelawney valuable time to prepare, Professor Trelawney is naturally grateful.
But when class actually began, Professor Trelawney was still a little nervous, and couldn't help but tighten the shawl around her body with her slightly trembling hands.
"Today we will continue to study what we had from the previous lesson," Professor Trelawney bravely maintained his usual enigmatic tone, "learning about prophetic dreams. ”
"Ask the students to work in pairs and interpret each other's dreams according to the explanations in the "Dream Interpretation Guide" textbook.
"And in the meantime, I'll be on patrol and answering your questions."
The students nodded and opened their books, which made Professor Trelawney's face look a little better.
"So I still don't understand," Susan said as she opened her textbook, lowering her voice as much as she could.
"Even if the old liar's claim is true, dreams may be a spiritual feedback to us when we feel the changes in the world around us."
"But what can we interpret according to a fixed textbook?"
"That's up to you." Harley smiled evilly and raised her hand, and the void ate the tofu,
"Looks like you've forgotten why you came to the divination class."
Susan looked down and thought for a few seconds, then quickly realized.
That's right, I chose this course just to get credit from Trelawney, an old liar.
What does the true appearance of the divination class have to do with me? Can I use it to determine if I will get a P for my Transfiguration homework?
"You're right, I forgot something so important." Susan fiddled with her textbook,
"Then you can make up a dream and just fool around, the old liar is coming soon."
As the students began to interpret their dreams, Umbridge also got up from his seat and walked around the classroom, asking questions from time to time.
However, she probably had something on her mind, so she deliberately moved away from Hallie and approached Professor Trelawney's location.
Professor Trelawney sensed the approach of the pink toad, so he deliberately got into a teaching dispute with the two boys in Gryffindor—
Ron and Dean's interpretation of dreams disagree with Professor Trelawney.
Ron said he had a dream last night about himself being the goalkeeper for the Gryffindor Quidditch team and holding on to all the goals of the opposite side in the first game.
And time is racing fast, and he has been firmly guarding the Gryffindor goal, not letting anyone take a point from him.
Ron insisted that it was a foreshadowing dream that proved that he was bound to succeed.
But Professor Trelawney disagreed, saying that Jupiter was astronically far away from Saturn last night.
Therefore, the interpretation of this dream should also be in line with the foreknowledge of the image, and be interpreted in the opposite direction.
The correct interpretation should be that Ron will be a new generation of big colanders in the next game, putting eleven of the ten balls in the past - one of which was reversed on the tee off and drove into his own goal.
She also criticized Ron and Dean for not being able to integrate the knowledge of astrological divination that she had previously taught!
I obviously only talked about it in the first half of this year, but they have forgotten it now!
Shaking and cold, when will the divination class be able to stand up?
Of course, Professor Trelawney's voice was confident when he reprimanded Ron, even if Umbridge was there.
After all, she had sneaked through the cracks in the tower's windows yesterday and saw the Weasley twins training Ron.
That scene...... Tsk tsk, even Trelawney, who doesn't understand Quidditch, can see that Ron's level is miserable.
That's why Professor Trelawney dared to make a prophecy in front of Umbridge, anyway, she added a definite word, the next game.
At Ron's level, can you practice before the first game? Professor Trelawney's real-name system said that he didn't believe it, and it was better to believe that he was Merlin than to believe this.
Professor Trelawney's divination made Ron angry, it was a blatant slander of his own personality!
If you can't speak, it's recommended not to speak, no one when you're dumb!
"Is that what you're predicting?" Umbridge suddenly came over and said in a swishing voice,
"But I think your explanation is completely different from the textbook, Professor Trelawney."
"Do you think the textbook is wrong? Or is there something wrong with your own divination skills? ”
"Then why doesn't Hogwarts just ask students to learn divination from the textbook, but hire me, the famous soothsayer?"
Faced with Umbridge's pressing steps, Professor Trelawney couldn't help but take a step back and retort at the same time.
"As I said, we have to learn to combine reality." She tried to suppress her uneasiness and explained in as cold a voice as she could, "Just like I said earlier about astrological knowledge......
Professor Trelawney frantically searched for a supplement, and Harley, who was dealing with Susan from a distance, almost burst out laughing as she watched the movement.
Isn't Professor Trelawney bullying Umbridge for being a layman? The editor is reluctant to make it more serious.
Umbridge, however, believed it, for Professor Trelawney seemed to be very rigorous.
"Professor Trelawney, it seems like you're very knowledgeable and experienced, right?"
After Professor Trelawney finished his dream interpretation view, Umbridge said with a smile.
Trelawney gave her a fierce look, his arms crossed and his shoulders shrugged, as if resisting Umbridge's questioning.
"Of course," her voice remained confident, "I've been in this position for sixteen years!" ”
"Think for yourself, if I didn't have real talent, would Professor Dumbledore appoint me?"
The smile on Umbridge's face grew stronger, and he made a few notes in his notebook,
"Professor Dumbledore hired you personally?"
"It's like a fake! Only a discerning person like him can see what makes me special! ”
"I heard that your grandmother was a famous prophet in the wizarding world, Kassandra Trelawney?"
"It's great-great-grandmother, thank you." Professor Trelawney corrected,
"I am the great-great-great-granddaughter of her old man, and the second wizard of the Trelawney family to inherit the Tenmu."
"Second place?" There was a little more confusion in Umbridge's voice.
"Uh," Trelawney suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his words, and his heart was a little weak, but the expression on his face was still strong,
"Tianmu often awakens from generation to generation...... Well...... It's normal to have three generations apart,"
"After all, a certain divination book says that magic gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things, so inheritance every three generations is the most magical."
As he spoke, Trelawney waved his wand, and a tattered book flew not far away.
Harry's eyes were sharp, and she saw that the book was called "The Scripture of Ethics", and the author's name was very strange, called "I".
At the bottom of the book is also printed a line of Chinese characters:
"This book was translated by Bell Magazine."
If Harley remembers correctly, there was no such magazine in the wizarding world, and there was no Bell magazine in the big Muggle magazines.
The case was solved, and Trelawney had gotten a translated Muggle second-hand book from somewhere and used it to fool Umbridge.
Umbridge wasn't easily suppressed, and was still asking and answering questions with Trelawney.
Umbridge's question grew sharper, and Trelawney's answer became more and more flustered.
This made the smile on Umbridge's face still exist, but the meaning behind the smile changed, and it seemed that he was a little dissatisfied and a little disappointed.
Hallie shook her head, she knew why Umbridge had the reaction.
After all, this is the master's task.
On the night of the first weekend, Harley was captured by Professor Dumbledore, and had to work inhumane overtime in the middle of the night.
After removing the curse that had existed at Hogwarts for a long time, the connection between the curse and Voldemort was not severed, but was naturally taken over by Hallie and connected to the curse of his own making.
So when Umbridge used the Dark Arts to concatenate the curse, trying to evade Professor Dumbledore's headmaster's authority and contact his new master through the power of the curse, the magic connected to Harry.
Hallie is a talented and virtuous witch in the new era, and she has always been a beautiful and kind-hearted person, so she will naturally not be stingy with this little power.
Of course, Hallie is such a kind person, it is normal for her to shield her from the monitoring of the principal's authority, and to charge a little fee.
So the magical communication between Umbridge and Voldemort that could not be overheard by Dobby was so easily seen by Harley.
According to the known information, Umbridge came to Hogwarts not only to complete Fudge's mission and continue to win Fudge's trust, but also to satisfy Voldemort's "curiosity" -
Voldemort had been obsessed with an unknown prophecy during his summer vacation, and Dobby had already reported this to Harley.
There are two ways to obtain a prophecy, one of which is to invade the Prophecy Hall of the Department of Mysteries of the British Ministry of Magic.
There is a wonderful phenomenon in the wizarding world, when each prophecy is generated, a corresponding crystal ball will automatically form in the prophecy hall.
This is not the magic of the Department of Mysteries, and the silent people in the Department of Mysteries are not so capable.
Like the doors in the Hall of Death, these crystal balls existed before the Department of Mysteries was established.
This crystal ball containing prophecy is extremely mysterious, and only the characters who appear in the prophecy can understand the contents of the crystal ball.
As for the others, even if they get the crystal ball, they can't get the mystery in it, and if they want to forcibly obtain it, they will even be eaten and erased by unknown forces.
Since the establishment of the Prophecy Hall, many magic masters have been curious about the mysteries of this place, but unfortunately they have not been able to solve it until now.
Harley had known about this for a long time, but considering that the Department of Mysteries contained twelve halls, the Hall of Death and the Hall of Prophecy were among them, and behind the door in the center of the Hall of Death was the City of Intrinsa Calamity.
It can be juxtaposed with the Hall of Death, and the phenomenon is so weird, you say that behind the Hall of Prophecy is actually just the extraordinary characteristics left by a Sequence Nine soothsayer, Harley absolutely does not believe it.
So Harley wasn't curious about the Prophecy Hall at all, at least not until she became a Sequence 1 Doomsday Witch.
She didn't even want to do divination about the specific content or whereabouts of this prophecy, after all, no matter how much she avoided risks, traces of the prophecy hall would inevitably appear in the divination, and it might be linked to the city of calamity.
Curiosity kills people, and witches who live long enough know how to survive in a dangerous world.
As for Voldemort, Harley can only wish him good luck from the bottom of her heart. Anyway, I still have his Horcruxes in my hands, and there are traces of what he left behind.
Even if he died, he would be able to create another fake Voldemort to lead the Death Eaters and dark creatures for him, and complete the promotion ceremony.
It doesn't matter if Voldemort is dead or alive, what matters is that the Death Eaters believe that he is alive is enough.
In addition to going to the Prophecy Hall, another feasible way to obtain prophecy is to perform divination.
Voldemort was prepared to do two things, on the one hand, to ask the Death Eaters to make a plan to invade the Prophecy Hall of the Department of Mysteries, and on the other hand, to have Umbridge try it from Trelawney's side.
If Trelawney was really a soothsayer and re-divined that prophecy, Voldemort thought he would have made a lot of money.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't do the divination, and Trelawney can be expelled from Hogwarts on the grounds that he is a liar, thus allowing Umbridge to further gain Fudge's trust.
In Voldemort's mouth, Fudge was a very important sacrifice, and he demanded that Umbridge never fall out with Fudge, at least until Christmas.
In general, regardless of whether Trelawney has real skills or not, Voldemort's move is not a loss.
