A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Chapter 166 Lockhart’s self-knowledge

"Aaron, are you going to go on stage soon?" Draco asked excitedly, and Crabbe and Goyle beside him were also eager to give it a try.

"I'm not interested in dueling." Aaron fed Abe a snack and said nonchalantly, "But I am still interested in learning from other wizards' fighting methods."

"No!

This opportunity doesn't come around all the time. With your ability, you can definitely shine as long as you take the stage. "

"Forget it! If I hadn't been too bored recently, I wouldn't have come over."

"Speaking of which..." Draco paused slightly and looked at Aaron meaningfully, "What are you doing these days?

Every time you return to the common room, you lock yourself in the dormitory and don't come out. "

"Well...I'm learning." Aaron said seriously, "That's a particularly profound kind of magic."

"Okay!" Draco shrugged, and then looked towards the ring, "I've thought about it, I will duel with Harry Potter later."

Aaron raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled: "Is this necessary?"

"I accidentally lost on the Quidditch match, so I have to get it back somewhere else."

Hearing this, Aaron gave a thumbs up, “I wish you good luck.

By the way, is the Duel Club hosted by Professor Snape? "

"It seems not, I heard..." Draco said mid-sentence, a smile appeared on his face, "He's here."

Aaron looked along Draco's line of sight, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Lockhart, wearing a green and gold robe, stepped onto the ring. Behind him was a group of students. He looked particularly proud under the spotlight. When he smiled, he could see a row of shining people. teeth.

"Don't tell me he's in charge of this dueling club."

Aaron was very speechless. He had been looking forward to it just now. A wizard duel at Hogwarts was also relatively rare.

But as soon as Lockhart appeared, his little interest disappeared instantly.

This Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who only makes jokes without any real knowledge cannot teach them anything at all.

"It's surprising!" Draco felt a little funny when he saw Aaron's disappointed expression, "I was also surprised when I heard Professor Snape say it.

It's not without merit that Lockhart could come up with such a great idea. "

"What a waste of my precious time." Aaron said speechlessly.

"At least he built this arena." Draco said meaningfully, "If you don't like it, you can go up and challenge him later."

Aaron was really tempted, but after taking a look at Lockhart walking to the center of the ring, he gave up the idea.

He would not feel any psychological burden from beating Lockhart, but it would not be appropriate to beat a teacher in public.

"Everyone, come here, can you see me?" Lockhart said loudly, "Can you hear me?"

The students in the auditorium gradually gathered together and surrounded the arena.

"In view of the dark events that have occurred in the past few weeks, Dumbledore allowed me to open this dueling club to train everyone so that one day you can protect yourself calmly like me.

Full details are in my book. Lockhart said, throwing his coat under the ring, revealing a set of soft armor lined underneath, "Let me introduce my assistant, Professor Snape." "

Professor Snape was dressed in black wizard robes, no different from his usual attire, but his face was terrifyingly dark.

“Good guy, what a good guy!

He actually knew how to find an assistant for himself. It seemed that he also knew how much he weighed. "Aaron teased, there is a reason why Lockhart is doing so well. People need to be self-aware!

"Aaron." Draco winked at him quietly, "Just a reminder, it's better not to speak ill of Lockhart in public."

Hearing this, Aaron also felt a lot of hostile eyes and quickly restrained his expression.

It is true that Lockhart is a loser, but there are many idiot fans of him in Hogwarts. They are addicted to Lockhart's autobiography and are unwilling to admit the reality.

"Professor Snape generously agreed to give me a demonstration." Lockhart explained proudly, "Young men, don't worry, I will return your Potions teacher to you intact after the demonstration."

Aaron blinked in shock and turned to look at Draco, but he also had a blank look on his face.

"Don't look at me, I don't know either."

"Where does he get his confidence?"

Although Aaron didn't like Lockhart, when he saw Professor Snape's slightly raised corners of his mouth, he couldn't help but mourn for him in his heart for a second.

"Is there something wrong with your judgment?" Draco said unconfidently, "Is there such a possibility?

Lockhart's teaching skills are terrible, extremely bad, but his practical ability is still good. "

"Haha!" Aaron said disdainfully, "I really hope what you said is true, but he can't even handle the Cornwall elf."

Draco thought of the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class of this semester and immediately dismissed all positive speculations about Lockhart.

There was only one thing he admired, and that was that Lockhart's level of seeking death was not generally high.

He didn't choose from so many professors, but chose the one who was the most ruthless.

On the ring, Lockhart and Snape stood opposite each other and bowed to each other.

Then they drew their wands and held them before their chests like swords.

"one two three..."

Lockhart had just called three when he heard Snape shout the spell: Expelliarmus.

Suddenly, a dazzling red light hit Lockhart's chest.

He flew backwards, flew out of the ring with exclamations, and lay curled up on the floor.

The surrounding Slytherins applauded and cheered. This was the dean of their college, and he knocked Lockhart down with one move.

"I kind of sympathize with him." Draco smiled, "Maybe he didn't even think that Professor Snape would be so powerful!"

"Who knows!

But I don’t think the results will change if I change any professor. "

Lockhart picked up his wand and stumbled to his feet.

Although his chest hurt and his hair was messed up, he still acted like nothing was wrong.

"Well done, Professor Snape.

But IMHO, your intention is actually quite obvious. Lockhart said carelessly as he walked forward, "If I want to stop you, it will be effortless." "

Snape's face turned darker, and there was even a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Lockhart obviously felt this. Just when he was about to stop this demonstration that would deeply hurt him, a sound came from below that made him tremble.

"Then let's demonstrate it again, Professor." Aaron said, "It will also give us all a lot of experience."

"I have no objection." Snape also looked at Lockhart meaningfully, "I believe our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor will also have no objection!"

Lockhart's heart skipped a beat, and his expression became a little unnatural.

Aaron Gaius is just looking for trouble. If he agrees, he will definitely be kicked out again. He doesn't want to be unable to stand down in public.

There was also Severus Snape. I thought he would follow the script he had arranged because of his taciturn nature, but he didn't expect that the person on the other end was him who didn't speak much.

"What should we do?" Lockhart's brain was working rapidly. He looked at the expectant looks of many students below him, and he suddenly had an idea in his mind.

He glanced at Aaron, then turned his attention to Snape, and said seriously: "I admit that this is a pretty good idea.

But this is a club, not a serious classroom, and we cannot deprive children of their show.

I suggest that students should be divided into groups of two and let them show their talents in their own way. If there are any mistakes, we can correct them. "

"What do you think Professor Snape?"

Although he was asking, Lockhart was not going to give Snape a chance to speak, "Okay, that's it."

He turned around and distanced himself from Snape, and when he was almost reaching the other end of the ring, he saw Harry and Ron in the crowd.

"Potter, Weasley, how about you come first?"

"This is not a good idea." Snape sneered, "Weasley's wand will have trouble casting the simplest spell, and we may have to put Potter in a matchbox and send him to the hospital.

Besides, the battle between Gryffindor and Gryffindor will inevitably be perfunctory, so let’s pick someone from my house!

Gaius, please come out. I believe you and Mr. Potter can give us a wonderful duel. "

Aaron was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Draco, "I didn't expect this situation."

"It doesn't matter, I don't care if it's earlier or later.

If you play, you can severely dampen Porter's spirit. "

"I told you, I'm not interested." Aaron said speechlessly, then raised his right hand, "Professor, I am not willing to fight against Harry Potter.

How about Malfoy instead?

Draco has always wanted to fight the famous Harry Potter, and I think they should be given a chance. "

Snape frowned slightly, but Lockhart thought it was Aaron who was scared.

Thinking that the other party almost made him unable to get off the stage, he immediately pretended to be considerate and said, "Gaius, I personally think you should show everyone what Slytherin is capable of.

I know Mr. Porter is famous, but if you give up because you are afraid, you are destined to lose a lot in the future. "

Aaron's mouth twitched, and he even had the urge to laugh.

Lockhart's ability to think is a bit too strong. He seems to just don't want to go on stage. Where is the fear?

On the other side, Harry was also confused.

He was still somewhat confident in dealing with Malfoy, and he had to get up close and personal with Malfoy for the Polyjuice Potion.

But he doesn't feel that he is stronger than Aaron, and the opponent is probably the heir of Slytherin. If the attack is not serious or serious, he may have to go to the school hospital again.

"Professor, I..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Potter, it's just a disarming spell." Lockhart raised an eyebrow at Harry, "You won't hurt him."

Harry looked bitter, but less resistant.

There was no other reason than that Lockhart was still alive and kicking after being knocked out by Snape.
