Hogwarts in a parallel world

Chapter 38 New Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

Winters looked at the dark ashes and realized that he had just released a killing curse.

Although Aurora tried her best to liven up the atmosphere and draw their attention away from the scene just now.But it didn't work, everyone was talking about what Winters had just done.In the end, it was Elena who suppressed the discussion.

"There is nothing wrong with what Winters did, and the entire responsibility lies with the Ministry of Magic. It was the special Auror employees of the Ministry of Magic who failed to control dangerous dark magical creatures like dementors. If it weren't for Winters' decisive actions, how could you have Do you want to know what we will become? And there is no problem with black magic being used to protect ourselves. As for making a fuss," Elena finished in a rapid succession.Although the others didn't say anything, they looked at Winters worriedly.

"Brother, you listen to me. You should go find Dumbledore as soon as possible. I think you had a burst of magic just now." Slyer looked at Winters worriedly.

"Isn't that what happened when you first awakened your magic power?" Winters couldn't figure it out.

"Yes, that's why I suggested that you go find Dumbledore... This is a bit abnormal. I... How should I put it?" Slyer hesitated.

"Say it quickly." Winters was anxious.

"I suspect something like dark magic is under the influence. Dark parts of your personality have awakened... This wouldn't be a problem for other wizards. But it would be too bad for you, with your gifts. Gao, once you go astray... you really can't get back." Slaer was thinking as he spoke.

Slyer's words were like a basin of ice water, instantly making Winters feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.Although he had always been prepared for the erosion of dark magic, he did not expect it to come so quickly, and Occlumency was almost useless to him.

"What you said is too serious, Slyer. He was just protecting himself. And under the influence of the dementors, that scene must have stimulated him. I know my brother." Aurora obviously disagreed.

"I understand... and Winters also said that he saw the bodies of you, your sister, and your parents... This sight must have seriously stimulated him. But I suggest that Winters still It's also for his own good to go find Dumbledore. I don't want my buddy to be irreversibly corrupted by black magic." Slyer's tone still revealed worry.

"Okay, don't discuss these issues anymore. I believe Winters can handle it. He hasn't had any problems for two years," Carle stopped talking in time.

They arrived at Hogwarts at old time, the windows of the castle's main building glowing orange.This soft light instantly dispelled the gloom on the train.

Under the guidance of the prefect, they boarded the invisible carriage. Although they were invisible, Winters still saw a vague outline, like a group of skinny horses pulling the carriage.

Arriving in the auditorium, the entrance ceremony for the first-year students was completed about half an hour later. Dumbledore stood up and announced several things.

"The first is the duel arena. The first half of the semester is the first season, which is an individual competition. Starting in the second week of the semester, the overall champion will add 120 points to the college. The second half of the semester is the team competition. In the second week of the next semester Week starts. There are 7 people in a team, and the championship team will get +180 points for its college. I will send the detailed rules to the common rooms of each college this weekend."

"The second thing is that the third-year students will go to the No. 6 Experimental Base on Shadow Island for the first practical defense against dark arts class on June 26 next year. The final results of this practical training will be used for your future ordinary wizard level examinations. Make a big impact. So please go the extra mile.”

"Since we are talking about Defense Against the Dark Arts, let me introduce you to the third-year Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Remus Lupin," Dumbledore finished.A man beside him who seemed exhausted stood up slowly and bowed to everyone.

He didn't seem to be in particularly good condition, as if he had just suffered a serious illness.Then Dumbledore tapped his glass, and the empty plate was immediately filled with food.The hungry students immediately started feasting.

At this time, a pale golden owl dropped a letter on Winters' table.Winters opened the envelope, and on it was the font of a circle within a circle: Come to my office tonight for a brief chat, and my favorite iced pineapple juice, your most loyal Albus Dumbledore.

"Whose letter is this?" Harry took a piece of steak.

"Professor Dumbledore's...it's nothing...it must be something about the magic aggregate," Winters said carelessly.

"That must be important," said Ron, chewing on his steak.After the dinner ended, Winters came to the door of the principal's office.

He shouted to the stone griffin at the door: iced pineapple juice.The Stone Griffin immediately jumped aside.

"Winters... Please forgive my arbitrariness. I think you need to talk to me... You shouldn't be angry. After all, you are really tired today." Dumbledore already knew that Winters was there. The Killing Curse was cast on the Hogwarts Express, completely destroying a Dementor.

"Of course, sir... I was scared too." Winters couldn't help but think of Slyer's words: The dark part of the personality awakened.

"Can you tell me the situation at that time? You must have been stimulated by something to react so violently." Dumbledore did not pursue the severity of the terrible black magic of the Killing Curse.

"A dementor appeared on the train, and then it poked its head into the compartment where my friends and I were. Then it pointed its face at me...and then" Winters couldn't go on.

"Kid, you should keep talking. Otherwise I don't know how to help you," Dumbledore encouraged.

"Then... then I saw Aurora, Lydia, and... and the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Eisen... they all... seemed like it all happened right now," Winters said tremblingly.

"That kind of scene makes you feel your own powerlessness and despair...and then this despair turns into the strongest murderous intention." Dumbledore already knew the follow-up.

"Yes, Professor" Winters lowered his head.

"To be honest, I can't help it...Child... What you need is to prove that you are strong enough to protect the people you love. But obviously this proof is not what Hogwarts can give you. Yours Your talent and the power brought by your wand have made you far superior to most wizards," Dumbledore sighed.

"Then sir... I should" Winters saw Dumbledore for the first time and he couldn't think of a solution.

"Spending more time with your friends should help ease your mental state. Don't shut up your mind. And what you did in June this year has proven that you can use black magic well and deal with black magic." What magic does to you" Dumbledore nodded.

Then Dumbledore added: "Seize the time to practice magic aggregation. You can put aside your research on black magic for a while. I have a hunch that Elena's illness is about to reach a decisive moment."

"I will sir" Winters stood up. "Then you go and rest. Remember, don't close your mind," Dumbledore said gently.

After coming out of the principal's office, Winters did feel that the principal had helped him dispel some of the haze, but Slyer's words: the dark part of his personality. . .Still making Winters uneasy.
