The Rise of the Muggles at Hogwarts

Chapter 33 Traps and Vampires

Anthony had been looking forward to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon for a long time.

In fact, he was quite curious about how Dumbledore would react when he knew that Voldemort was attached to the back of Quirrell's head.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom is located on the second floor.

As long as you come to the second floor, you won't have to worry about finding a seat.

Because as long as you follow the smell of garlic in the air, you can easily find the classroom.

Quirrell says the garlic is to protect him from vampires, whom he offended during his summer vacation in Romania.

Put aside your prejudice against him.

If Voldemort hadn't possessed his head later.

This professor who graduated from Ravenclaw should be very capable.

Quirinas Chilo is a top student who has obtained 12 certificates in the OWL exam.

After graduating from Hogwarts, except for the years of training outside, he spent the rest of his time as a professor in the school.

He was previously a professor of Muggle Studies.

In 1991, after Old Deng couldn't fool the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he took over the course with Quirrell's consent.

For Chilo, this is undoubtedly a huge promotion, from teaching a marginal elective course to teaching a required course.

So he made the worst decision in his life.

Quirrell wanted to gain some first-hand practical experience.I went to the Romanian forest alone, wanting to study or capture some dark creatures.

As a result, he was eager to prove himself and unfortunately met Voldemort, who was still alive at the time.

Immediately afterwards, we all know what happened next.

Dumbledore also knew very well that he was mainly responsible for Quirrell's changes, because he was the one who asked Quirrell to take over as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and it was he who approved Quirrell's trip to Romania.

...

Anthony sighed softly at the tragic fate of the professor, and then walked into the professor with Harry and the others.

The steel chandelier in the classroom was very conspicuous, and as expected, the air smelled strongly of garlic.

"professor?"

As soon as Anthony walked out of the classroom and sat down, a gentle palm fell on his shoulder.

It's Dumbledore!

"There is a letter from you." The old principal smiled and handed the letter to Anthony, then lowered his head and winked at him.

Forehead?

Anthony looked at the old principal with a profound look on his face in astonishment.

Under the attention of him and many young wizards, Dumbledore slowly walked out of the professor and disappeared into the corridor.

?

What happened?

Anthony, who was full of confusion, took out the letter.

It's more of a post-it than a letter.

Because it has no envelope at all.

Anthony frowned and opened the note. The font was very beautiful, and there were countless circles behind each word. If nothing else, this was definitely Dumbledore's handwriting.

However, its content shocked Anthony. In just a few words, he understood Dumbledore's intention.

Then Antony suddenly threw the letter into the air, and then the parchment suddenly ignited spontaneously, spitting tongues of fire in the air, leaving not even ashes.

"The principal wants to see you for something?" Harry asked curiously.

"Well, I heard that Gringotts was invaded..." Anthony said in a roundabout way.

Because in the letter, Dumbledore crazily hinted at him and revealed to Quirrell the news that the Philosopher's Stone was in the principal's office at Hogwarts, which was a trap at a glance.

This...

Anthony smacked his mouth, dissatisfaction spreading in his heart, what happened to Dumbledore?Did you mistake him for Snape?

He is not a spy!

...

Although he was already Mr. Harker's spy, he did not want to get involved in anything related to Voldemort.

"Gringotts? How is this possible! He is the safest place in the world besides Hogwarts!" Ron said in surprise, and then told Muggle wizards like Harry and Hermione who didn't understand Gringotts Explained the origin of this oldest 'Wizard Bank'.

As he told it, Hermione and Harry gradually gained a general understanding of Gringotts.

While many little wizards were chattering.

The class bell rang.

Quirrell walked in, wearing a brown suit with a wizard's robe wrapped around his coat, and a ridiculous purple scarf on his head.

"Oh!—you—okay."

"I am your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Quirinus Quirrell."

Quirrell said hopefully.

Then it was very successful and met with a cold start.

Everyone has a very bad impression of this professor.For a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he was a bit too cowardly.

The young wizards in the senior class also felt strange about Quirrell's appearance this year.

Although there were not many wizards who took his Muggle Studies course before, there were still forty or fifty. (The exam is easy to pass.)

But ever since he took over as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he seemed like a different person.

This is really confusing. Is he trying to disguise himself, or is he deliberately showing his differences and praying for his identity to be revealed?

Praying to be exposed?

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Anthony's mind, and it was not impossible.

Perhaps Quirrell was silently sending out a 'distress' signal from the beginning?Is it just that everyone chose to ignore it?

Seeing that most of the young wizards were not interested in his self-introduction, Quirrell smiled angrily, and then began his introduction to almost all grades this year.

——Explain why you use so much garlic in the classroom.

By the way, let’s change the subject to vampires.Started talking about dark creatures like vampires.

Although Quirrell did not teach any magic spells during the whole class except telling his own story.But it still seemed novel to Anthony.

This was the first time he learned about the vampire race.

Unlike werewolves, vampires have a close relationship with wizards.

During the Dark Ages, they did not join Voldemort's side, but remained neutral.

Of course, this does not mean that all vampires are good people, but compared to the crazy and crazy dogs of werewolves (except for Professor Lupin), the perception of vampires in the wizarding world is absolutely excellent.

Even if they need to eat blood, they won't arouse everyone's hostility.There is so much blood from all kinds of magical animals on the market that they don't need to attack wizards for it.

"Professor! Will vampires attack Muggles?" After Quirrell stuttered about his tragic experience, Anthony finally couldn't help but raise his doubts.

"Um..." Quirrell's reaction was a bit shocked. After all, he had been explaining his experience of being chased by vampires for a long time, but the little wizard's attention was actually here!

"Well..." At this time, he still had some professionalism. After being stunned for a second, he replied seriously: "Generally, vampires will not attack Muggles."

"There is no magic in Muggle blood. For vampires, this blood will not make them feel full. It is just like us drinking water." He explained slowly.

ps: Quirrell stutters when he speaks. Normally I would space it out, but when the conversation is intensive, there will be no "——", which will affect the perception.
