Hogwarts: Harry's Path to Witches

Chapter 76 Someone arrived earlier than me!

The first day of Gryffindor's second year was really rough.

After herbal medicine and transfiguration classes in the morning, there was a Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon.

After finishing lunch, the two went straight to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

Although there is still more than an hour before the afternoon class, it is not a bad idea to go to the classroom and read for a while.

It was cloudy outside and it was impossible to sunbathe in the yard.

Harry originally thought that he and Hermione could read quietly for a long time before anyone would arrive in the classroom.

But she thought wrong, someone even went earlier than she and Hermione!

Lavender and Parvati, the best friends, finished their lunch early and sat in the first row of the classroom.

There were two Hufflepuff girls beside them, whom Harry had a vague impression of. Together, the four of them firmly occupied the middle position in the first row.

"It seems that our dear Professor Lockhart is very popular!" Harry said softly to Hermione.

"Just him?" Hermione sneered.

She had heard from Harry what had happened before the morning's Herbology class, and her senses about Professor Lockhart had completely changed.

After all, according to Harley, she just used a very simple spell.

But Professor Lockhart couldn't even break the simple spell cast by the weak and powerless second-year girl. Even he couldn't escape the spell!

Hermione, who had absolute trust in Harry, did not doubt Harry's words.

Although Hermione, who had seen Harry easily kill a troll, didn't believe Harry's claim that she was a petite, cute and weak woman, she didn't think Professor Lockhart was that weak at first.

After all, according to the description in Professor Lockhart's book, the professor easily killed a group of trolls more than once!

As a result, the reality is that the dignified Professor Lockhart was defeated by Harry, a second-year student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry...

Lose your face!

Hermione was already considering that if Professor Lockhart was really too embarrassing in his first class, she would report him directly to the headmaster and ask for a change of professor.

……

As time went by, the front row of the classroom quickly filled up.

Harry sat in the corner of the last row of the classroom, looking at the little witches in front of him, and gained a new understanding of Professor Lockhart's charm.

Of course, Harry was confident that her charm would be stronger than Professor Lockhart's.

However, Harley relies on the extraordinary abilities brought by the witch's potion, while Professor Lockhart relies solely on his appearance, personality and eloquence!

When the bell rang, Professor Lockhart was late.

The blue robe he wore in the morning had also turned sky blue. Obviously, the wrinkles on the cyan robe no longer meet the needs of his first appearance.

The collar of the robe was very high, blocking his neck to prevent the strangulation marks of the silk threads from being exposed - Harry had shown no mercy at all this morning, and had really tightened the threads ruthlessly.

Professor Lockhart put down the book in his hand and shook his head deliberately so that the whole class could see his new hairstyle.

"Hello, classmates!" Professor Lockhart began to introduce himself after coughing a few times, attracting the attention of the whole class, mainly the boys in the back row,

"I think everyone should know me, but I still want to introduce myself here-"

As he spoke, he picked up the copy of "Walking with Trolls" by Neville Longbottom.

Harry looked at the photo of Professor Lockhart smiling brightly and wondered if he was smiling so brightly when he just finished the adventure, or if he was beaten so hard by the troll that he couldn't smile at all.

"——I, Gilderoy Lockhart, Lord Merlin, Third Class..." Professor Lockhart was unaware and pointed at the photo to start his self-introduction, or to show off his honor.

The girls in the front row leaned forward involuntarily, as if they wanted to get closer to Professor Lockhart.

This is exactly the opposite of what the boys in the back row are doing.

"I saw that you all bought a complete set of my works. You really like them, don't you?" Professor Lockhart said loudly, ignoring the murmurs of the two boys in the back row.

"Then let's take a small test first. Don't be afraid, this is just to see how well you read the book and how much you understand!"

Professor Lockhart handed out the papers to the students one by one, and then returned to the podium: "Give you thirty minutes, now - start!"

Harry looked at the paper in his hand, blinked, and unabashedly turned to look at Hermione's copy.

Lockhart, who was standing at the top, naturally saw Harry's actions.

He coughed slightly, and when he saw that Harley didn't pay any attention to him, he consciously turned his eyes to the other side.

After confirming that the paper at the back was the same as his own and that there was no problem with his own paper, Harley slumped directly on the table:

"Hermione, you will copy the papers for me, won't you?" As she said that, Harry stared at her big watery eyes and blinked slightly.

Hermione couldn't help but hit Harry's head hard with her quill, rolled her eyes, and then began to answer the paper quickly.

Hermione, who likes reading, had already read through these textbooks during the holidays and memorized almost all of them.

Harry was really bored playing with the spider silk, making them make various shapes in front of him——

From small daggers and table knives to miniature spears and heavy flails, the kind that can hammer a man's head into powder with one blow.

Professor Lockhart on the podium had completely twisted his body and was staring at another corner of the classroom.

Neville, who was extremely sensitive to sight, was about to cry.

Could it be that in addition to Professor Snape, Professor Lockhart from the Defense Against the Dark Arts course also saw that his strength was not enough?

Otherwise, why would Professor Lockhart be staring at me so hard?

When the paper was about to be handed in, Harry quickly "borrowed" a copy of Hermione's test paper, not forgetting to change the name to his own.

I heard at noon today that a Hufflepuff classmate was reprimanded because Professor Sprout did not receive his holiday homework, but received two of Harry's homework!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the answer is really bad..." Professor Lockhart went through the classmates to collect all the test papers, and then read them on the spot.

He shook his head repeatedly and raised a lot of questions.

"But!" The professor's tone suddenly became excited, "I really didn't expect that two students could get full marks!

Miss Harry Potter and Miss Hermione Granger! Could you please raise your hands? "

Harry lay on the table and stretched out a hand lazily. Hermione next to her was sitting upright, but it was more like a routine.

"That's great! Both of them answered Gryffindor! Thirty points for Gryffindor!" Professor Lockhart shouted.

Write more about Lockhart, and I will try to create a Lockhart that is different from most fans, at least not so useless. After all, if he was a complete waste and could sneak attack so many masters, I would be the first to not believe it.
