Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way

After Professor Dumbledore looked around the auditorium, he continued:

During this term, our school has had the Dementors of Azkaban, Ministry of Magic employees sent on official business.

Earlier on the train, it was also because of the order of the Ministry of Magic that they searched the Hogwarts Express train, but unfortunately there was a bit of trouble in the middle.

Although Miss Potter successfully expelled the dementors with the Patronus Charm, I must remind you that the Patronus Charm is an extremely difficult magic, and most adult wizards cannot successfully cast it.

For little wizards who have not mastered the Patronus Charm, Dementors are extremely dangerous.

No spells, potions, or magical items at your disposal can deceive them...

Professor Dumbledore delivered a long speech, repeatedly emphasizing the issue of safety.

After all, Harry defeated the dementors before, so Professor Dumbledore was very afraid that some young wizards would be inexplicably confident, and wanted to single out the dementors.

Especially those Gryffindors who couldn't be idle, they definitely belonged to Professor Dumbledore's focus.

After talking about the dementors, Professor Dumbledore's expression became less serious.

He looked around the auditorium again, then cleared his throat.

Let's change the subject to something lighter. Now I want to introduce two new professors.

First up is this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Professor Remus Lupine!

Professor Lupine with a haggard face stood up and responded to Professor Dumbledore's introduction.

There was sparse applause in the auditorium, and most of the students were indifferent.

After all, this Professor Lupine was ragged and covered in patches.

And as long as a stronger wizard, even if he doesn't know the magic of mending clothes, it is impossible for him to live so well.

After experiencing many wonderful professors before, Hogwarts students have very low requirements for Defense Against the Dark Arts professors.

He is a person, has a teaching plan, and he is barely passable, as long as these three points are met, the little wizards think that this is a good professor.

But judging from Professor Lupin's first impression, he can only be human.

Professor Lupine smiled wryly, and was about to sit down when he heard the applause from the Gryffindor table getting louder, and then the applause spread throughout the auditorium.

When the little wizards found out that it was Harry who was taking the lead in applauding, the Gryffindor students responded first, and students from other colleges subconsciously joined in the applause.

Professor Snape watched as Harry took the lead in applauding, then turned his head and gave Professor Lupine a vicious gouged look, with murderous intent in his eyes.

After the applause subsided, Professor Dumbledore smiled and continued:

As for our second professor, I regret to inform you that our Care of Magical Creatures teacher, Professor Keitel Byrne, retired at the end of last term...

Of course it's to protect his only remaining arm and leg. Fred explained to the freshmen with a smile.

...so I'm delighted to announce that Rubeus Hagrid will be the new Care of Magical Creatures professor.

He agreed to accept this teaching position in addition to taking on the duty of watching the Forbidden Forest.

This time the applause came much faster than the previous ones. Except for Slytherin, students from other houses still had a good sense of Hagrid.

When the applause died down again, Professor Dumbledore cleared his throat and drew his wand.

As for the most important news, I think everyone has already heard it through the newspapers.

Congratulations to Miss Harry Potter for winning the Potions Tournament for Hogwarts and obtaining the Golden Cauldron;

At the same time, we would also like to congratulate Miss Harry Potter for receiving the Order of Merlin, First Class!

Ribbons erupted from Professor Dumbledore's wand, and at the same time the cloudy ceiling became clear.

Models of the Golden Cauldron and the Order of Merlin, First Class, appeared in mid-air and floated onto the Gryffindor Lion banner hanging behind the teacher's bench.

There was thunderous applause in the auditorium, and most of the Gryffindor students and some students from other houses stood up and applauded, while looking at Harry with a smile on his face.

George and Fred once again tried to take out props to celebrate, but were stopped by Professor McGonagall's death stare.

Amid the cheers, Professor Dumbledore announced the start of the banquet.

...

After the banquet, the students all returned to their college dormitories, and Professor Lupine returned to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office.

On the way, he also went to the kitchen and asked the house elf to give him a sumptuous supper right now.

When he returned to the office, there were two large plates of delicacies on Professor Lupine's desk, along with pumpkin juice.

But Professor Lupine didn't even look at it, but knocked on his box which was leaning against the table.

The box was opened.

Professor Lupine waved his wand, and a big black dog that was bound tightly and was unconscious flew out.

Professor Lupine looked at the big black dog in silence.

After a long time, he pointed to the head of the big black dog.

With the flashing of various lights, the rope disappeared, and the big black dog slowly opened its eyes, and began to change back to human form little by little.

It was a tall, black-haired middle-aged man.

Although his face looks very old, it can be vaguely seen that he was also a handsome man back then.

Professor Lupine frowned slightly as he stared at Sirius's smooth, slightly shiny hair, which was laced with many silver strands.

Then he flicked his wand quickly, binding layer after layer of restraint on Sirius before he was fully awake.

Sirius was held at the other end of the office, and Professor Lupine approached the door of the office.

At the same time, Sirius' hands were chained and fastened to the wall.

His legs were also handcuffed with iron balls hanging from them.

Various lights flashed on the walls of the office to ensure that the conversation between the two would not be leaked, and to prevent Sirius from using some special magic to destroy Hogwarts.

At this time, Sirius also fully woke up.

He watched Professor Lupin's movements quietly, without trying to struggle, and at the same time did not say a word.

After Professor Lupine finished everything, Sirius smiled slightly, and said in his hoarse and magnetic voice:

Remus, you are still as cautious as ever.

Of course. Professor Lupine tightly held his wand in his hand, pointing firmly at Sirius,

Thank you for my caution! If it was James or Peter standing here, you will only have a corpse left!

...
