Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 57 Lessons

At six o'clock in the evening, the students gathered in the auditorium one after another, and no one wore a dueling badge.

Because at noon, the Magic Education Committee announced that it is forbidden to wear duel badges in Hogwarts, and it is forbidden for any student to practice wizard duels in any form. They patrol the corridors and call it investigating the castle. Points deducted.

There are no magnificent decorations in the auditorium today, no gorgeous golden stage, and no three-tier stands.

The students found that the most eye-catching decoration in the auditorium turned out to be the college hourglass behind the classroom seats. In just one day, Gryffindor's points were running out, and there was only a pitiful layer of sand left in the hourglass.

The Gryffindor students refused to obey Umbridge's discipline. They demanded that Professor Pedillo be replaced, so Umbridge had to severely deduct points for them.

The other houses were not much better. The scores of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff were less than a third of what they were yesterday. Umbridge even took care of the young lovers holding hands. If someone's school uniform shirt was not tucked in, she Twenty points will be deducted unreasonably.

The only house that wasn't penalized was Slytherin, probably because of Lucius' relationship and Umbridge's reluctance to provoke Snape.

Moreover, the Slytherin students are all good at using the rules, and they only get 300 points for winning in the Defense Against the Dark Arts Club. In addition to the personal rewards promised by Peter, Umbridge has already helped them achieve their goals, and there is no need for them The limelight wears the badge.

By evening, a committee clerk was retaliated by having his tongue grow out of his mouth and spread out on the floor like a red carpet.

Umbridge was furious, but she offended too many students to guess which house it was from, so she deducted 50 points from each of the three houses except Slytherin.

A little after six o'clock, she walked into the auditorium with girlish steps, "Ms. Umbridge is here, get out of the way!" Make way.

The students grumbled and pushed each other helplessly, and the shorter students could only see the backs of other students.

She strutted into the middle of the auditorium, pretending to fold her hands on her stomach, and the committee staff formed a circle and drove the students around to make an open space for Umbridge.

"Ahem." She coughed twice and cleared her throat, but almost no one heard the noise she made, because the auditorium was noisier than Diagon Alley.

Among the members of the committee, a tall, gray-haired man pointed to his throat with a wand, "Quiet!"

His magically amplified voice echoed in the auditorium for a long time, the students were startled, and the volume in the auditorium finally decreased.

Umbridge's face was full of smirks, and she said in a sweet voice: "Hello, students!"

No one paid any attention to her, the students were all chatting and laughing in low voices, they couldn't see the middle of the auditorium anyway, and besides, no one wanted to see Umbridge's stubby figure, toad mouth and pink sweater.

At the same time, Peter and Snape came out of the hall, Peter walking in front, looking happy, followed by a black dog the size of a bear, Snape was expressionless as usual, and there was a distance between them. Not a small distance.

The two walked through the crowd to the center of the auditorium, and the students spontaneously made a way for them.

"When I said 'Good evening, Ms. Umbridge' you should have said 'Good evening, Ms. Umbridge', and now I say it again—" Umbridge paused displeased at seeing Peter, "Peddie Professor Lu, what are you doing here?"

"Don't get me wrong, I won't steal the show. Tonight is the home game for you and the Magic Education Committee, but I can help you maintain some discipline."

Umbridge opened his mouth to refuse, but Snape stepped out of the crowd and stood behind Peter with a sullen face, silently stating his position.

Peter ignored her and turned to face the students. The students in the front row who could see the situation quieted down and looked at him expectantly.

"Please step back five steps and be careful where you step."

The students backed away slowly, leaving enough space in the center of the auditorium, Peter raised his wand and turned in a small circle on the spot.

The ground rose rumblingly, and a golden stage appeared in the center of the auditorium. Three people and a dog rose together with the stage.

"Everyone stand carefully and don't move around."

Peter waved his wand again, and the stands slowly rose around. The students adjusted their feet, and soon, everyone sat comfortably on the third-floor stands, and they could clearly see the scene on the stage.

"Ms. Umbridge, if you don't know this spell, I don't mind if you come to give me some pointers every time the class starts."

Umbridge's face was livid, but he didn't say anything, "Ahem!" She cleared her throat again, "Okay, thank you Professor Peddie for your enthusiasm, please take your "The Theory of Magic Defense" , and start reading Chapter 1."

There was a sigh and the sound of flipping books among the students.

"Why are we bothering to come into the Great Hall? I can read this shitty book on the toilet," Ron muttered.

Harry looked at all kinds of theoretical knowledge densely printed in extremely small fonts on the book, and his scalp became numb.

Hermione was calm. She put "Defense of Magic Theory" on top of "Wizard's Combat Guide" and read it with relish.

After 2 minutes, Peter spoke, "Since the beginning of this school year, everyone in the Magic Education Committee has worked hard, and now they don't care about their own safety as security officers—"

Umbridge and the committee staff around the stage looked suspiciously at Peter, wondering what he was going to do.

"——Taking this precious opportunity, I would like to ask everyone on the committee to introduce themselves, and the students will also have the honor to know who is in danger to protect them and teach them the skills of fighting."

He smiled and walked to the gray-haired man with a tough appearance, and stretched out his hand to invite him, "Sir, please come to the stage first."

The man stared at Peter stiffly, and didn't move. Peter knew that he was the most difficult to deal with in the Magical Education Committee, and he was also the one most likely to carry out dark magic attacks.

Peter wondered if he was August Rookwood, he didn't expect to hear the truth, but he might find something.

"Aren't you being polite?" Snape glanced at the students, leading the applause expressionlessly.

Driven by him, there was a round of polite applause from the audience, and Peter once again offered an invitation, "Come on, introduce yourself, don't be so formal."

The man and Umbridge exchanged winks and walked slowly onto the stage, "Dawlish, Auror." His voice was hoarse and curt, as if he wasn't used to long speeches.

The eyes of the students lit up, and they immediately looked at Dawlish with admiration. They didn't expect that the Magic Education Committee was not all idiots, but there were also elite wizards like Aurors who fought against dark wizards and helped justice.

Peter also suddenly realized.

It turns out that he is Dawlish, a Hogwarts graduate who was excellent in all subjects of the NEWTs exam. No wonder his aura is completely different from that of other committee staff. It seems that Mr. Barty Crouch has placed many people in Hogwarts. Lores Umbridge level.
