New Professor at Hogwarts

However, Regulus's funeral and Christmas were all in late December, and it was only mid-November, so there was still almost a month left.

Xia Ran borrowed many precious books from Dumbledore. He hoped that through his own efforts, he could improve the level of Charms.

"Here, Xia Ran, are the three books you need." Dumbledore launched three large books, one "Advanced Black Magic Revealed", one "Metamorphosis Theory", and a book with an extremely awkward title. "The study of the practical and abstract consequences of natural death, especially the reunification of spirit and matter."

"These are very precious books, Xia Ran, take good care of them." Dumbledore was quite reluctant to part with them. He would read these books, especially the third one, from time to time.

Xia Ran smiled and said: "I have never destroyed books." He took the three books and held them in his arms.

"By the way, your Resurrection Stone." Dumbledore stopped Xia Ran who was about to leave, and took out a stone from the drawer. It was the Resurrection Stone, one of the Three Sacred Artifacts of Death. He went home and took the Resurrection Stone and gave it to Dumbledore. He roughly knew what Dumbledore wanted this thing for.

Dumbledore's expression looked slightly gloomy, and his blue eyes seemed to be filled with sadness.

Xia Ran didn't know what to say, so she could only quietly take the resurrection stone and said: "My condolences."

"When people get old, they like to do things that they have long known are meaningless." Dumbledore smiled bitterly. The undead summoned by the Resurrection Stone do not belong to the world of the living. They live here in great pain. This is not what they should do. A place to live.

In the story of the Deathly Hallows, the second child who possessed the Resurrection Stone was grieved physically and mentally because of the pain of his beloved woman, and cut himself off, allowing the God of Death to take away his life without any effort.

Now that Voldemort is lurking in the dark, Dumbledore will certainly not commit suicide. The younger generation has not yet grown up - especially Harry Potter, whom he has high hopes for - and when the older generation of wizards faced Voldemort, without him present, they would It was difficult to match Voldemort. Even Alastor Moody, the Order of the Phoenix's second-in-command, was still no match for Voldemort. He knew that he could not die yet and had to live to support himself.

Dumbledore looked at Xia Ran's leaving back and his eyes flickered. It was really surprising that Xia Ran knew so many things. He didn't know how Xia Ran found out, but he was probably sure of one thing. Although he belongs to the side of the white wizard, the character and psychological condition he has always shown are not likely to be trapped in black magic.

Even though Xia Ran is indeed proficient in a lot of black magic, some of them were even given away by him.

Just be sure of that.

He also hopes that Xia Ran can grow up quickly and become powerful. If there can be another legendary white wizard who is not inferior to him and Voldemort, then he will have no regrets even if he dies immediately, because there is another wizard in the white wizard's world. Take it over for him and fight against Voldemort, a legendary level among dark wizards.

Even though Harry Potter has a special connection with Voldemort, he also has a strong foundation. The problem is that Harry is too young. When he fully grows up, he will not even think about it for many years. Dumbledore Lido was afraid that he wouldn't be able to wait that long.

"I hope Xia Ran can be stronger. If she is at the level of Minerva and Severus, my pressure will be greatly reduced." Dumbledore whispered, he did not expect that Xia Ran would have the opportunity to advance to the legendary level. , that is, a wizard with a magic power level of 7 or above on Xia Ran's system panel.

Although Xia Ran was not bad, Dumbledore believed that he was still too far away from the legendary level of level 7.

You know, the deans of the four houses of Hogwarts: Professor McGonagall, Snape, Professor Flitwick, and Professor Sprout, are without exception talented wizards, even better in some aspects. Dumbledore was a step ahead, but they were still not level 7 legendary wizards.

A white wizard as powerful as Moody is also not a legendary wizard.

This is probably what Dumbledore expected from Xia Ran.

Xia Ran would not know what Dumbledore expected of him, and even if he knew, he would not care. At most, he would laugh it off. He has a certain plan for his own path, not to mention that he also has a system panel that appears with his awakening. It can absorb the Force points contained in special magic items to enhance itself.

"Snape is such a bastard. He actually belittled Professor Lupin like this and said he couldn't teach. Being a teacher was an unwise choice for Dumbledore??"

When Xia Ran was going down the stairs, she heard an angry voice coming from the corridor on one side. This voice was very familiar, and the two voices behind her were also very familiar.

And Xia Ran also remembered that this period happened to be the time when Lupine transformed into a wolf. Although there was the wolfsbane potion prepared by Snape, it only suppressed the ferocious habits of the werewolf, but it could not affect him. 's transformation.

Therefore, Snape took over his Defense Against the Dark Arts class as the substitute professor.

"I think Dumbledore's decision to choose him as Potions Professor was an act of lunacy!" a male voice said through gritted teeth.

Then a female voice raised her voice and said, "Ron! This is not the lounge. Keep your voice down so that the teachers don't hear you."

The three people who spoke happened to be Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

"Ah, Professor Frémont." The trio turned the corner and immediately saw Xia Ran walking down with three books in her arms. Her face was slightly embarrassed. The professor's words were heard, even though they were aimed at Snape still felt that this move was not appropriate - instead of belittling Snape openly, he should have returned to the Gryffindor common room and scolded him.

Xia Ran smiled and said: "Criticizing a professor behind his back is not the behavior of a good student." He knew Snape's character, especially after Lily's death, he served as the Hogwarts professor for more than ten years.

Otherwise, how could Dumbledore trust Snape? Snape knew almost all his secrets in the original time and space, and it was Snape who had the last hand to advance the progress of the Harry trio.

"We won't do it anymore." Harry and Ron said immediately, and then added in their hearts: "I won't let you hear it again!"

Hermione looked at the books in Xia Ran's arms curiously and asked, "Professor, what kind of books are these?" She loves learning by nature, and she is itching to see books and wants to take a look and find out.

"Can I take a look, Professor? After you're done, I mean."

The three books that Xia Ran is holding must not be read to students at this time, especially "The Secret of Advanced Black Magic" and "The Study of the Practical and Abstract Consequences of Natural Death, Especially the Study of the Reunification of Spirit and Matter" , it is easy to influence their minds and lead them to go astray.

"We'll wait until you grow up. Just focus on what the teacher teaches now." Xia Ran suppressed the big words on the cover, went down to the fourth floor, and entered the office.

Hermione pouted on the stairs, looking annoyed.
