Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts.

Faced with Les's questioning, Lockhart suddenly became silent.

He replied vaguely: "It must have been more than ten years ago? At that time, I left my career in the UK -"

"Ten years? Are you sure?!" Les couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

A spell made the werewolf unable to transform for ten years, which even the inventor of the spell, Ravenclaw, was ashamed of himself. This made Les have strong doubts about the authenticity of Lockhart's words: No matter how strong you are, Lockhart, can you be better than Ravenclaw?

If you really have this level of skill, then what were you doing when Voldemort was wreaking havoc? Why didn't you show up and stop him? The era of Voldemort has only passed a dozen years ago!

In other words, the Restoring Humanoid Curse has made great progress during the thousand years he has been sleeping?

So why does it seem like no one has ever tried to popularize this mantra? As long as we continue to apply the humanoid restoration spell to the werewolves, won't it be a matter of time before the werewolves are collectively transformed into wizards?

Gryffindor has proven that they can't kill all werewolves, but Ravenclaw's method might work.

But no wizard has taken action so far, don't you want to?

Rice concluded that Ravenclaw's humanoid restoration spell was probably on the verge of being lost, and Lockhart's words were not credible - one of him and the werewolf must be lying.

"The spell that restores a werewolf to human form is incredible!" Les said deliberately and artificially: "Professor Lockhart, I happen to know a werewolf friend, can you help cast a restoration spell on her? So that she can get rid of this despair. , a miserable life?”

After hearing what Les said, Lockhart's expression froze, but he was eloquent and quickly found an excellent way to deal with it.

"No problem, but I want to focus on teaching next, so why don't you invite her to come to Hogwarts for treatment - of course, remember to make an appointment with me in advance. I really want to help her, but I really have too many things to do and can't get away from it." Lockhart agreed grandly, but at the same time he set a lot of conditions.

He had already thought about it. If Les really asked his werewolf friend to seek treatment from him, he would find a way to delay the treatment. I couldn't put it off any longer, so I verbally agreed to her, and actually added a few words to the letter to the fans, "accidentally" leaking the news that werewolves were entering Hogwarts, and encouraged the fans to send letters to Dumbledore, against the entry of werewolves. Until then, you won't suffer from both sides.

Les glanced up at Lockhart.

In his opinion, Lockhart had written all his plans on his face.

Lockhart's reaction also shows that there is a high probability that he really will not be able to restore the human form spell. The story in his book is probably made up from hearsay.

Les's eyes were as dark as ink and as deep as an abyss, making Lockhart feel uncomfortable all over. He smiled reluctantly, and then found a new topic to talk about. Fortunately, there are his loyal fans in the carriage, so he won't be left in the cold.

But Les was not willing to let Lockhart go so easily, and he raised another topic that was very disturbing to Lockhart.

"Professor Lockhart, I admire your courage."

Lockhart raised his eyebrows. He didn't quite understand why he suddenly started saying this, but since it was a compliment, he accepted it without hesitation.

He showed what he thought was a charming smile and said that courage is an essential factor in adventure and is the first piece of equipment that an adventurer should put in his backpack before setting off.

"Only a true warrior dares to sit on the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts!" Les' sigh made Lockhart a little confused.

Daphne glanced at the two of them and slowly told Lockhart about the grudge between the Dark Lord and the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. She not only told the legend, but also detailed the fate of the previous Defense Against the Dark Arts professors she knew: Professor Quirrell last year was wiped out in the dungeon, and the professor the year before last was said to have had his back broken by a wild boar in the Forbidden Forest.

As for the other professors, some resigned voluntarily due to personal reasons, and a considerable proportion of professors resigned passively due to various accidents. Anyway, no one has worked for more than one academic year.

Lockhart: ...

By the time Daphne was halfway through her words, he was already sweating profusely. The smile on his face was no longer bright, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth became tense.

"Maybe... it's a coincidence? I actually only plan to teach for one year. After all, my adventurous life will continue." He tried hard to find excuses, but he couldn't even lie to himself.

"An adventurer like you won't be afraid of curses, right?" Les put Lockhart directly on the fire.

Lockhart suddenly didn't want to be a professor anymore.

He initially agreed to Dumbledore's invitation mainly because of the popularity of the matter. Working at Hogwarts and being a teacher to the Boy-Who-Lived, this sentence would be the front page of the newspaper! This was completely irresistible to the pushy Lockhart.

In his opinion, it was easy to fool the little wizards. He only needed to tell them about his heroic deeds. A year's worth of classes in exchange for explosive popularity is a pretty good deal.

But now the situation seemed to have changed, and the professor's position suddenly became hot, which made Lockhart reluctant to quit.

But considering that his reputation has been blown out and the contract has been signed, there seems to be no way out. He has already put himself on the shelf, and it will not be that easy to get down.

Lockhart couldn't help but regret the decision he made.

Now, his mood became very bad.

Lockhart felt distraught when Les seemed to still want to talk. He made an excuse and hurriedly left this miserable carriage.

Looking at Lockhart's fleeing back, Les was a little bit off guard: What the hell!

Through the conversation just now, he was 90% sure that the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was another parallel import! God knows how the adventure stories in his books were written. Isn't it just hearsay? !

Rice only felt that the future of Hogwarts students was bleak.

With the quality of these two guys, Quirrell and Lockhart, what useful self-defense magic can they learn? !

I'm afraid this year will be wasted again - seven years in total, how many of them will be enough to waste? In the end, what's the use of a wizard who graduates from Hogwarts but can't even do the Iron Armor Charm?

Les's emotions were extremely mixed.

"He's really talkative, isn't he?" Since Lockhart had written many books, Hermione had a good impression of him, and because she was not as knowledgeable as Leslie, she didn't see Lockhart's flaws.

"But talkative people may not make good professors. My intuition tells me that he can't seem to teach us real things." Daphne put forward a different view.

In her opinion, Lockhart was no match for Rhys.
