Chapter 308 The Troubles of the Defense Against Dark Arts Professor
"After seven o'clock this afternoon, you and Angus come to my office together."
With these words, Salazar left Slytherin's dormitory.
Dumbledore didn't sleep all night and was still very energetic. He returned to the office and started writing a reply. After all, the parents who knew about the sudden earthquake in Hogwarts had already sent roaring letters to Hogwarts.
Dumbledore wanted to explain the lies he had thought up to those people.
In addition, there are also some guys who criticize and guide him. Although there are such letters every year, there are really many this year.
Dumbledore showed a distressed expression, then poured himself a cup of coffee. He happily poured half a jar of sugar cubes into it, and after taking a sip, his mood immediately recovered.
At this time, Professor McGonagall also came to the door.
She had an important mission to find Dumbledore.
"Minerva, good morning."
"Albus, I think I must tell you something very important!" Professor McGonagall couldn't help but sigh when she thought of everything she had just experienced.
"what happened?"
Professor McGonagall explained: "Do you remember that child Chanel Bonaparte?"
Dumbledore nodded and said, "Of course, I remember she is already in seventh grade, isn't she?"
Professor McGonagall nodded worriedly.
"What happened to the child?"
"I received a report from her roommate this morning, saying that the child was very stressed. She left the dormitory early in the morning and went somewhere unknown. Her roommate told me that she cried all night yesterday."
Dumbledore immediately became serious: "Have you found her?"
"At the Observatory, Albus, I persuaded the boy to return to his dormitory."
"Poor kid, what's wrong?"
"She said she was not sure at all about her graduation exam. Albus, she told me that she felt that she was not sure about her N.E.W.T exam in the Defense Against the Dark Arts course. She said she was not sure about the Dark Arts this year. Learned nothing in defense class.”
Dumbledore's expression gradually became awkward.
"I don't want to say anything bad, especially in front of you, behind the back of a colleague, saying that there are problems with his teaching, but Albus, I have to be responsible for my students, that poor child, she cares about her test scores. ." Professor McGonagall didn't want to lose her temper, but thinking about the results of her investigation, she couldn't help but sound a little bad. "Bonaparte's mother is an Auror, so the child also very much hopes to get excellent results in the N.E.W.T. exam. She hopes to follow her mother and become an Auror."
Dumbledore sighed quietly: "Of course, I know that her father was also an Auror, but he died. But her mother, Olga, did not accept everyone's persuasion and chose to change her job and still fight at the end of the line. Frontline. That child hopes to become a wizard respected by everyone, just like his parents."
Professor McGonagall took a deep breath. Chanel Bonaparte's parents were also her students. When this girl entered the first year of Hogwarts, she was aiming to join the Auror after graduation. This is a A very outstanding student. Professor McGonagall didn't want to say that she was particularly partial to that student, but it was obvious that such outstanding students made her particularly concerned.
"I don't want to say this, but I hope you can talk to Professor Lockhart. For the students in the fifth and seventh grades who need vocational exams, the level of teaching he arranges can't keep up with the exam requirements. of!"
McGonagall planned to tell Dumbledore this, so she stayed with Dumbledore early in the morning. She rarely criticized her colleagues, but sometimes, Professor McGonagall would be very rude.
"Or, I hope you will consider whether to re-hire a suitable professor with sufficient level to teach students the Defense Against the Dark Arts course in the next academic year!"
Dumbledore was extremely embarrassed, but Professor McGonagall's attitude was extremely firm.
This forced Dumbledore to assure McGonagall that he would find a way to deal with the situation.
However, professors are not so easy to find!
When Salazar came to the principal's office, he heard Dumbledore tentatively say: "Do you think you would be interested in the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts?"
Salazar was a little surprised, and then he understood that Dumbledore meant to replace Lockhart. Well, Salazar had already seen clearly whether Lockhart was good or not.
"kindness……"
Dumbledore looked at Salazar expectantly.
Salazar pretended to think for a moment and replied decisively: "I won't consider it."
"You can think about it seriously for a few more days. I think you can do it."
"I think it might not be appropriate."
"What's inappropriate?"
Salazar said helplessly: "I am a dark wizard! As a dark wizard, I can only teach black magic. How do you want me to teach them black magic defense? Just show them all kinds of black magic? You Are you sure that’s appropriate?”
Dumbledore stared at Salazar, with an incomprehensible expression upon hearing his excuses.
These are all just excuses!
Although everyone knew each other well, Salazar clearly told Dumbledore that he was not willing to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and Dumbledore could not force Salazar to do so.
"But, I will be very embarrassed." Dumbledore had a headache. He had to find a suitable Defense Against the Dark Arts professor every year, which could be said to be his most troublesome job.
Salazar touched his chin and suddenly said: "I do have a suitable candidate here, you can ask."
"Who is it?" Dumbledore's eyes lit up and he looked at Salazar.
"Sirius Black... he should be able to do it, right?" Salazar hesitated for a moment, but still told Dumbledore Sirius' name.
After Sirius graduated from Hogwarts, he served as an Auror for a period of time, but later he returned to the Black family and resigned. The last time Sirius went to Salazar for a drink, he said that he had resigned from the Ministry of Magic again.
How should I put it, Sirius's temper is still so straightforward. He and his parents often have conflicts. Last time it was because of a blind date, and this time it was because his father hoped that he could help acquaintances in the Trade Department. Sirius simply resigned. Done.
In his words: "It's all evil deals!"
"As far as I know, he has just resigned from the Ministry of Magic and has been on a hiatus recently."
Dumbledore didn't expect that Salazar seemed to have a good relationship with Sirius in his words. At least he didn't know that Sirius had resigned again. However, if he thought about it carefully, Sirius was really a suitable candidate.
"It is indeed a good candidate. I will contact him. I hope Sirius can agree."
Salazar said: "If he refuses, you can also ask him if there is a suitable candidate around him. It is said that his brother Regulus has recently retired and quit Quidditch. He is still considering whether to Go to work in the sports department of the Ministry of Magic. Oh, I remember there was a werewolf next to Sirius, who was said to be his friend, Remus Lupin. Sirius mentioned it to me, saying that he wanted to give Remus Lupin Ping is looking for a job, but he is worried that the other party will reject his recommendation."
Dumbledore was silent. It seemed that the relationship between Sirius and Salazar was not an ordinary close one.
"Regulus is also a very good graduate, and it is said that the werewolf is too. He seems to be a good candidate. You can ask, if the position of Professor of Defense Against Dark Arts is changed every year, this Aren't there three candidates? By the way, how about James?"
"James is the Auror captain, and now he is the backbone of the Aurors."
"Okay, what about Sister Lily? She seems to have resigned from Auror."
Dumbledore thought for a moment, why didn't he think of these people before?
Can't all of these people come to Hogwarts to teach?
Dumbledore thought about it, and planned to write a letter to ask Lily first. The reason why Sirius was not considered at the beginning was that he still felt that for the position of professor, it would be more appropriate to choose a slightly more stable person.
If Lily has no ideas, consider Remus.
Well, that’s it!
Sirius didn't know that he was disliked by Dumbledore, thinking that he was not stable enough.
He was busy persuading Remus to accept his help. He wanted Remus to work in a shop of the Black family. However, it was obvious that Remus knew that it was a job prepared for him by his good friend, which made him somewhat confused. concern.
At this moment, Lily suddenly told Remus that Professor Dumbledore was looking for a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for the next school year and asked him if he was interested.
"Hogwarts, Professor?" Remus was a little surprised by this. "Why are you asking me?"
Lily pushed James and asked him to help carry the roast chicken to the dining table.
Both Sirius and Remus came to the Potter's house as guests. At the scene, Lily told Dumbledore the recruitment news.
"My situation is not suitable." Remus' rejection came out quickly.
"What's inappropriate?" Sirius was a little worried.
"Actually, it was Professor Dumbledore who wanted me to persuade you, Remus. He wanted you to take the initiative to apply for this position." Lily declined Dumbledore's invitation. She did not intend to tell Remus the news. But when Dumbledore said that the school needed a qualified professor, Lily recommended Remus to Dumbledore immediately.
"But, Lily... you also know..." Remus was hesitant, he was embarrassed. "Harry is also at school. I have such a special day every month. Aren't you worried?"
"Of course not! Is there still a bastard like Sirius in Hogwarts who would induce students to break into your special night?!" Lily winked at Remus mischievously. "I guess you don't have to worry about that."
"But..." Remus still couldn't make up his mind.
"Besides, Severus will also help you. As for who needs to take over when you feel unwell, I think... either Seles or Severus can do it. Don't worry at all, Remus, I I think you are better than Sirius beside you. If you refuse, Professor Dumbledore said, he will have no choice but to consider persuading Sirius, but you should understand my feelings."
Lily held her chin, showing a troubled expression.
"I'm very worried. After Sirius goes, Severus and I will quarrel every day. You also know how bad their relationship is. And Sirius dotes on Harry too much. I have to be careful that Harry is led astray by him. !”
Sirius immediately shouted back at Lily's words.
And James also said to Remus very sincerely: "I also hope you go, Remus, you have the best temper among us, and the children will like you."
This kind of trust made Remus hesitate, but would Dumbledore really agree to become a professor at Hogwarts? Still such an important position!
When Remus was persuaded by several friends, he suddenly sent the job application to Dumbledore. He regretted it the next day. He was a werewolf and was very dangerous, so he went to Hogwart like this. It's so inappropriate.
But just when Remus began to regret it, he received a reply from Dumbledore. Dumbledore was very happy that Remus could apply for this position and arranged a date for the interview. Just after Remus sent the letter The afternoon of the next day.
At this time, Dumbledore seemed a little anxious.
In fact, Dumbledore had to worry.
Because something went wrong at Hogwarts.
Tom and Angus got into a duel, but Lockhart happened to pass by and tried to persuade the two of them without overestimating his ability. He was accidentally injured by Tom.
It doesn't matter whether Riddle-san was accidentally injured or whether he was impatient and deliberately cast a spell.
Anyway, Lockhart went to St. Mungo's because of this accident.
With less than two months left before the exam, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was gone.
The students had mixed emotions.
Then, they saw two substitute professors respectively.
The first, second, third and fourth years were filled with the ghostly Professor Snape. Harry said that his stomach hurt, and the Gryffindor students wailed.
And those in grades 5, 6 and 7...
Salazar appeared in the classroom with a black face.
Neither of the two substitute professors was happy about such a thing.
Dumbledore felt that fifth- and seventh-grade students faced vocational exams and had to study hard in such a short period of time. After thinking about it, it seemed that Salazar, who was the most ruthless, was the most suitable. His elective courses were also The combat effectiveness of the students who persisted in staying has improved quite a lot in this short period of time.
All are good hands in actual combat.
Dumbledore persuaded Salazar with the student's career future, which was naturally successful.
But Salazar was only willing to teach the fifth, sixth and seventh grade students, so the lower grades could only be handed over to the hard-working Snape.
