Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 998: Abandoned Defense Against the Dark Arts class
In the few short days after school started, everyone figured out Umbridge's character, a hypocritical, self-righteous, unreasonable old woman who likes to control people.
None of the prefects who dealt with Umbridge liked her.
I don't know which prefect, secretly leaked the content of the conversation with Umbridge, and now it has begun to circulate in the school, Umbridge wants the prefects to be her spies and monitor Hogwarts s student.
The Deputy Minister of Magic, apparently treating Hogwarts as the Ministry of Magic, was playing a game of intrigue, preparing to divide and disintegrate the students' trust in the prefects, and try to draw the prefects to his side .
As soon as the news broke, the whole school was almost fried, and the prefects didn't know how many times they scolded Umbridge in their hearts.
In order not to be isolated by the students, they began to spread the news from Umbridge, and for a while, negative rumors about Umbridge were flying.
The most exciting news: Umbridge finally hit a snag with Albert and smashed the office.
At the time, many students heard the sound of smashing and smashing curses coming from the Defence Against the Dark Arts office.
Everyone was gloating about it, they didn't dare to ignore Umbridge like Albert, but they were still very excited to see the old woman deflated.
Unfortunately, no one knows exactly what Albert and Umbridge were talking about.
Even if they knew, they wouldn't learn it.
Because Albert can basically ignore N.E.W.T's grades, no one will doubt his true level even without the transcript.
The bright world championship title is undoubtedly the best proof, and Albert doesn't seem to have plans to enter the Ministry of Magic after graduation.
Since the two sides have nothing to do with each other, why do you want to make a fool of Umbridge?
So, this Hogwarts genius simply ignored the Deputy Minister of Magic and spent most of his time in the library, not knowing what he was studying.
Not long after, word spread from Hogwarts Castle that Umbridge had allowed Albert not to take Defence Against the Dark Arts classes.
For this reason, many seventh graders came to ask about Albert.
Without Abbott holding the pressure up front, Umbridge would soon be able to break down their resistance, and everyone would undoubtedly face Umbridge's revenge.
Albert stopped taking Defence Against the Dark Arts classes, and resistance to Umbridge instantly collapsed.
Those seventh graders who didn't care about the rumors were hit in the head.
They originally wanted to find another student council president to fight the thunder, but Katrina seems to have received some rumors and will not take the Defense Against the Dark Arts class again.
For a time, the seventh grade students suffered a disaster. They remembered the rumors about Umbridge. Everyone was in danger, and they could feel that the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor's revenge was coming.
Fred, George, and Lee Jordan decided to make excuses and get away after sensing that the atmosphere wasn't right.
Who made them Albert's roommates and friends, they are easily affected by innocent people.
"Umbridge is angry," Angelina warned. "You better be careful."
"It's okay, we're going to apply to Professor McGonagall to drop the Defense Against the Dark Arts class." Fred said disapprovingly.
"So, even if she is angry, what can she do to us?"
The three didn't counsel Umbridge at all, and if the woman dared to try to lock them up, they would have a way to deal with it.
"You really gave up."
The girls were all surprised that the three of them would give up the Defence Against the Dark Arts class decisively.
Fred said with a grin: "We don't plan to rely on N.E.W.T's transcript to find a job in the future, why do we have to put up with that old woman in Umbridge?"
"Umbridge will take revenge on the others soon, don't forget about the first lesson." Lee Jordan reminded, "She may not be able to take Albert, but she can find a way to toss it. you."
"So, you all ran away when things went bad."
"You can also run away together and not go to her advanced class." George said with a smile.
“What about N.E.W.T?”
"According to the curse law of Hogwarts, Umbridge will definitely not be able to pass this semester smoothly, and then you can participate in N.E.W.T." Fred pointed out with a smile: "You should also start from Albert copied the review syllabus, as long as you finish those things on your own, it's basically no problem."
"No, I mean..."
Angelina was interrupted by Fred before she could finish her sentence.
"Do you think the theoretical knowledge you've learned from Defence Against the Dark Arts classes is really useful now?"
"It makes sense." Shanna nodded in agreement, "Let's learn by yourself, or we can form a Defence Against the Dark Arts Interest Group at that time, and then we can communicate with each other and make progress."
"I don't think it's very likely." Arya frowned at the three in front of her. There were too few daring guys like Fred, George, and Lee Jordan.
"Count me in, anyway, I'm going to be a Quidditch player in the future." Angelina didn't care much about N.E.W.T's results.
"Albert is writing a book on Defense Against the Dark Arts, and it's almost finished, maybe we can come in handy." George suddenly said, "I believe that book is definitely infinitely better than Defense Theory of Magic. ."
The expression on Professor McGonagall's face instantly collapsed when she learned that the seventh graders in her college were going to give up the Defense Against the Dark Arts class en masse. What made her even worse was that this group of people only routinely came to inform her about this Dean.
"Why give up Defence Against the Dark Arts?"
Professor McGonagall had to spend a lot of time interviewing several people.
However, she got a unified voice:
"Sorry Professor, we don't have time to play games with Umbridge..."
"N.E.W.T grades are not very important to us..."
"We can also teach ourselves Defence Against the Dark Arts..."
"Umbridge only teaches theory in her class, and theory alone won't help us get good grades in N.E.W.T...."
"Why do we have to waste time with her and see her face?"
Professor McGonagall had no choice but to ask Albert for help.
"Umbridge allowed me to skip class and go straight to the exam at the end of the term, which I think is good." Facing the somewhat annoyed Professor McGonagall, Albert's tone was calm.
"Everyone is complaining about Professor Dumbledore. I don't understand how he would allow a "layman" like Umbridge to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts."
"This has no doubt directly pitted the fifth and seventh graders of this class. If you pay attention, there are many people who are dissatisfied with this."
"But, even if I'm dissatisfied..."
"The curse has always been there," Albert said meaningfully.
No one thought that the seventh grader of Gryffindor would be so hard-headed and gave up the Defense Against the Dark Arts class directly. Such a rude operation really stunned the entire Hogwarts students.
Umbridge almost got pissed.
She probably didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Shut them down?
Gu YingUmbridge really didn't dare to do that, at least she didn't dare to do that now, because she found that the group was more packed than expected, especially several of Albert's roommates, a pair of If you dare to mess with me, we'll all end together, anyway, we don't need any N.E.W.T transcripts.
What makes her even worse is that as long as she dares to ask other people to ask questions alone, others will appear outside her office with wands in hand, ready to rush in to show her a good look when they hear any movement.
Don't tell me, they're really ready.
Even the Oblivion Potion is ready.
Soon after, students from other academies dropped Defence Against the Dark Arts classes.
The reason is: everyone thinks she'll die of the Defence Against the Dark Arts curse before she graduates this semester, and she'll be in N.E.W.T then.
Umbridge grimaced at the news.
……
“This year we need to face N.E.W.T.” said a student who asked not to be named, “We don’t believe that the exam in Defense Against the Dark Arts will be a written exam. According to Umbridge’s teaching method, those who can pass and get excellent grades There are probably very few candidates.”
"I can't believe that the educational reform the Ministry of Magic is seeking is to fail all Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts?"
"It turns out that the Ministry of Magic never thought about getting education right, otherwise it wouldn't have sent a Umbridge to Hogwarts as a professor who didn't know anything... As far as I know, the Ministry of Magic would never have Most of the employees can't even pronounce the Iron Armor Charm..."
The smooth, charismatic voice of Sirius comes from the radio over the fireplace.
This radio, which turns on on time every day, automatically plays the broadcast from the Wizard's Lookout.
Although some students felt irritable, most were willing to quiet down and listen to what was on the radio.
Rumours arose for a while, and many students questioned the quality of Umbridge's teaching.
Dumbledore followed suit and received a large number of complaints from students at the beginning of the school year.
I don't know who said it was useless to complain to Dumbledore, so the students started writing to the Ministry of Magic again.
Fred, George, and Lee Jordan encouraged a group of people to deliver news to various newspapers and magazines.
However, those letters sink into the sea without making a splash.
No one really cares about these things.
This is also the reason for the popularity of the Wizard's Lookout broadcast.
After Sirius' voice fell silent, Hermione's angry voice suddenly came from the common room, drawing the attention of the students who had just finished listening to the broadcast.
"Are you okay!" Ron asked worriedly.
"We're going to take the O.W.Ls exam this year!" Hermione seemed to be venting her anger by banging on the armrest of the chair, "How could Dumbledore let this happen?"
"Calm down Hermione, take a tranquilizer." Harry took a bottle of medicine from his pocket and poured a pill on Hermione.
"How can you calm me down." Hermione snarled, reaching for the pill Harry handed over, "What are we going to do with our O.W.Ls exam this year?"
Ron looked at Hermione, who was out of control, at a loss.
"Perhaps, we can ask Anderson to teach us. He has tutored his classmates before." Harry suggested, throwing the tranquilizer into his mouth.
"He's not free, I asked him, he said this semester is very busy." Hermione put her hand over her forehead and said weakly, "The O.W.Ls exam is very important, and it is related to our future!"
"Harry, are you carrying that stuff with you now?" Ron tried to change the subject.
"After I felt the benefits of a calm mind during my trial," Harry said calmly, putting the bottle back in his pocket, "I knew I needed it."
"Give me one." Hermione said suddenly, "I need to calm down."
Harry took out the medicine bottle and poured Hermione a tranquilizer.
After swallowing the pill, Hermione's mood stabilized a lot. She took a deep breath and said to Harry and Ron beside her, "We need to save ourselves, set up a Defence Against the Dark Arts study group, and learn black magic by ourselves. Knowledge and skills of magical defense."
Harry and Ron looked at each other.
Finally, Harry lowered his voice and said, "Tonight, I will find time to contact Sirius to see if they can help us."
"Harry... do you want to join us?" Fred asked out of nowhere, putting his hand on Harry's shoulder.
"What's the matter."
"We're going to surprise Umbridge," George said with a smile.
"You're really not going to Defence Against the Dark Arts class?" Hermione asked suddenly.
"Going to Umbridge's class is a complete waste of time, do you think the N.E.W.T exam will test theory?" Fred asked rhetorically.
"Hermione ~IndoMTL.com~ Get the facts and stop kidding yourself."
"If Mom knew, she would definitely be mad at you." Ron said quietly.
"You forgot, she promised to leave us last year," Fred reminded.
"What surprise?" Harry asked, "Albert's idea?"
"No, he's busy."
"What the **** is he up to?" Hermione asked.
"I don't know." George shrugged.
"What are you going to do?" Harry was intrigued.
"We're going to..." George's voice was getting lower and lower.
"Really?" Ron asked with wide eyes.
"Let's try first, and then ask for technical support," Fred said without hesitation.
"Count me in," said Harry. "I'll contact Sirius tonight to see if he can give us some advice."
"Hermione, if you want to pass the O.W.Ls exam, there is actually a very simple way." George said suddenly and mysteriously.
"How?" Hermione asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I can help you borrow Defence Against the Dark Arts notes from Albert, as long as you study them well and learn some spells on your own, it's actually pretty easy to get good grades on the O.W.Ls."
Actually, Hermione herself was too excited to think about it, otherwise, the other party would definitely not refuse to ask Albert to borrow notes.
"Okay, count me in." Hermione agreed to join, and she also hated Umbridge and would love to see him unlucky.
"Welcome to join."
Fred and George looked at each other with a satisfied smile.
In Albert's absence, they need a thoughtful person to make sure the whole plan is safe.
