【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

"Lockhart is quite a character, right? He seems quite brave."

Justin walked over to Harry Potter.

He was a little Harry Potter fan, so he took this opportunity to squeeze in next to Harry.

And it was obvious that he was also the one who was fascinated by Lockhart's golden appearance.

Ernie also happily pulled Esther here.

Esther heard their conversation and thought that you will be the next unlucky one, boy.

They didn't say a few words, and the demonstration of the two professors above had already begun.

Professor Snape and Lockhart raised their wands in front of them and saluted each other.

This is the etiquette before the game.

Then the two sides walked to both ends of the playing field, got into position, and as "one, two, three" fell, Snape took the lead in chanting the incantation.

A smooth and slow "Expelliarmus" came out of his mouth, and the tip of the wand emitted light, hitting Lockhart on the opposite side accurately. Then the fashionable and exquisite Defense Against the Dark Arts professor spoke with He was shot away with a very inelegant gesture.

Logically speaking, "Expelliarmus" is not very powerful. It usually just knocks away the wand or other weapons in the opponent's hand. To achieve this effect, I don't know whether to say that Professor Snape has superb magic power or that Loha Really stupid.

Maybe both.

There was a gasp from the surrounding students.

Esther heard Hermione look worriedly at Lockhart who was knocked out: "Is he okay?"

Ron next to him responded with a gloating look on his face: "Whatever!"

Harry nodded along.

The smile on his face couldn't stop.

He had been detained by Lockhart recently and had to write replies to his fans for him. He didn't like Lockhart to begin with, but now he hated him even more.

It really made him happy to see him make a fool of himself, even if it was another professor he didn't like.

Esther also sighed: "Professor Snape is indeed amazing!"

This scene is also in the movie, but it is completely different in reality.

It’s more eye-catching in reality than it looks in the movies.

Thinking of the original work, Severus Snape created and invented many magic spells when he was a student, such as the famous "Shadowless Blade", "Upside Down Golden Bell" and "Lock Tongue and Throat Sealing". of.

These idioms were very popular with Harry later on.

Therefore, Snape is not only very talented in potions, but also very strong in other talents. The untimely death of such an outstanding person is indeed a loss to the magical world.

I don't know if it was my imagination, but I always felt that after she said this, Professor Snape glanced at her vaguely.

Esther immediately turned her gaze to Lockhart with a guilty conscience.

Could it be that Professor Snape heard it?

But she didn't say anything bad about him, and she probably wouldn't target her if she heard it...right?

Lockhart had already stood up, pretending that nothing happened to save his respect.

"It's really good to let them see it, Professor Snape, but with all due respect, your intention is too obvious and easy to see through. It's a piece of cake to stop you." [Note 1]

The sarcastic look on Professor Snape's face could hardly be concealed. Of course he looked down on idiots like Lockhart.

What's more, this idiot also stole the Defense Against the Dark Arts class he wanted to teach.

The corners of his lips twitched slightly, and then he said in a cold voice: "Perhaps we should teach students to resist unfriendly spells first, professor?" [Note 2]

The last "professor" sarcasm is full of meaning.

Lockhart was stunned for a moment. He was a fool, but not a fool. Naturally, he could hear Snape's disdain for him in his tone. But since he couldn't beat the opponent with a fool, he could only pretend not to know.

So he quickly changed the subject and began to suggest that a pair of volunteers from among the students come on stage to demonstrate.

So far, all the plots are not much different from the original work. Lockhart ordered Harry to come on stage. Just when Esther was happily preparing to watch him and Draco throw each other's butts, Professor Snape's eyes circled around the scene, and then fell on her.

Esther's heart thumped, and something bad appeared.

"Then I will choose Miss Esther Mayne to come on stage and demonstrate."

Esther:? ? ? ? ?

other people:? ? ? ? ?

no! Isn't this the right direction?

Shouldn't it be his favorite student Draco Malfoy who goes on stage to demonstrate "acrobatics"? Why did he suddenly become her?

Is it ridiculous for Harry, a second-year student, to fight against her, a first-year student?

None of the Hufflepuff friends expected that Snape would ask Esther to come on stage, so they were all stunned.

Even Lockhart was a little surprised: "If I remember correctly, Miss Mayne is a freshman this year. Isn't that bad?"

"I see nothing wrong with Miss Mayne versus Mr. Potter."

Snape said as he glanced at Esther again.

Esther, who was still dazed at first, was frightened by his eyes, and her body involuntarily stepped onto the stage.

I thought to myself, this is definitely revenge, right?

This was revenge on both her and Harry.

He loved it whether she lost or Harry lost.

Harry opposite was also a little dazed. He frowned slightly and looked at Esther opposite in distress.

In his eyes, Esther is already his friend, but her feelings are not as deep as those of Hermione and Ron.

This meant that if he were to compete with Ron or Hermione on the same stage today, he would not hesitate at all, but facing a friend he was not very familiar with, he would be embarrassed to take action.

Especially since Esther was younger than him and had a timid personality.

Draco, who was watching on the sidelines, was not very satisfied with this choice. Unlike the little badgers who dared to be angry and dare not speak out, he said bluntly to Professor Snape: "Professor, let me do it, I want to duel with Potter. "

Snape glanced at him lightly: "Mr. Malfoy, please trust my choice."

He has said this again and again, and no one else will raise any objections.

Lockhart stood up and spoke: "Okay, let's do it. I emphasize, only disarm the opponent and don't do any other actions. I don't want anyone to be harmed."

Esther and Harry bowed to each other, then stood in both directions and raised their wands towards each other.

Esther took a deep breath, she was feeling a little confused now.

She didn't know why this happened, so she panicked and subconsciously cast the spell after hearing Harold's order.

"Except your weapons!"

She recited the spell clearly, and a ray of white light flew out from her wand, knocking the wand out of Harry's hand.

"Wow!"

There was a burst of applause all around.

Harry was not discouraged even after taking off his wand, but instead looked at her with a smile.

He had no intention of taking action against Esther.
