Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1004: Self-Defense Guide
Late at night, the windows of the Gryffindor common room were still lit, and Harry Potter was sitting at the round table next to the blazing fireplace, copying homework. He was a little sleepy, he covered his yawn, rubbed his sore eyes, raised his hands and stretched his waist, took advantage of his free time to look sideways at the pouring rain outside the window, covered his yawn again, and then he Driven by his studies, he continued to pick up the quill.
Being targeted by the toad this month, coupled with the hard training of the Quidditch team regardless of the weather, Harry has little time to complete the homework assigned by the professors, so that he can only stay up late every day to do homework.
He inadvertently glanced at the scar on the back of his hand. There was a shallow mark left on it by repeatedly copying sentences with a punishment quill.
Fortunately, Umbridge's experience has been worse than his recently, which made Harry's gloomy mood much better.
In order to further fight against Umbridge, Harry even joined the Anti-Toad League.
Yes, the rumored anti-toad alliance certainly exists.
Harry knew a long time ago who was looking for trouble for Umbridge.
Is this Albert Anderson's idea?
Or a Weasley Brothers trick?
Harry didn't know this, but the truth didn't matter to him, what mattered was that Umbridge was punished.
Yes, Harry didn't feel any guilt for mistreating Umbridge so much, and he never even thought that he would hate and be hostile to a person so much.
Bringing his thoughts back again, Harry continued to bury his head in copying homework. He didn't put away the homework on the desk until the early hours of the morning, and took out the Motra rat tentacles pain-relief ointment provided by the Weasley brothers from his pocket. Apply it on the back of the hand, sometimes the wound left by the punishment quill will be painful. It is said that the white fresh extract is added to the pain relief ointment, which can avoid scars as much as possible.
"Does your arm still hurt?" Hermione asked suddenly.
"Haven't you gone to rest yet?"
Harry looked at Hermione who was still sitting next to her in surprise. In the past, Hermione would go back to rest before dawn. It is said that staying up late is not good for the skin.
"Hermione said she wanted to talk to you about something." Ron also dropped the quill in his hand, wanting to hear what Hermione was about to say.
"Hermione, just talk about it." Harry said calmly.
Hermione guessed that there was something important to say, otherwise she wouldn't pick this time, because she undoubtedly didn't want others to hear the conversation between the three of them.
"What did Sirius say?"
Hermione's first sentence made Harry and Ron a little confused, obviously they didn't understand the meaning of the words, and Hermione seemed to realize it, and added, "I mean practice Defense Against the Dark Arts things."
"Oh, I contacted Sirius last night, and he agreed with me to bravely stand up against Umbridge." Harry understood what Hermione meant, and said with a smile, "Sirius also recommended us A good place to practice spells."
"Where?" Ron asked.
"Screaming Shack," said Harry. "He thinks it's a good choice if Umbridge doesn't want to notice. We go to Screaming Shack every week to practice magic, if we have time." , Sirius and Remus will also find time to teach us."
"Harry, if it's just the three of us, the Screaming Shack would be a great place, but..." Before Hermione could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a frowning Harry.
"Not just the three of us? Oh, you mean Fred, George, and Lee Jordan?"
To be honest, the Weasley twins were also very good at Defense Against the Dark Arts. They had trained Albert in Defense Against the Dark Arts before, and Harry even suspected that he could not beat one of them in a duel.
"I heard that their joke props are very popular." Ron felt that those guys were completely stealing money.
"There may be more than the three of us." Hermione explained with a light cough, "The initial Defense Association was not small, and... I think most of the members of the Anti-Toad Alliance would be willing to join."
"Hermione, I think you're joking." Harry glared at Hermione and said angrily, "I'm not Anderson, let alone his charm, how many people do you think would believe me like this What's more, we don't have that much room for movement."
"Hermione, I think Harry is right." Ron echoed, "If you really want to reorganize the Defense Association, then you should let Anderson preside over it, only he has the ability to organize Hogwarts students We reorganized."
They both thought that Hermione was going to set up a three-person Defense Against the Dark Arts team, but now it seems that Hermione seems to be planning to reorganize the Defense Association.
Harry felt that if he did what Hermione did, he would probably be completely laughed at. After all, there were many students in the school who thought he was a liar.
"Besides, you think Umbridge has no reason to put me in confinement?" Harry asked with a strange expression.
"Harry, since when are you afraid of Umbridge, if you want more people to stand by your side..." Before Hermione could finish speaking, Harry interrupted her.
"Hermione, I really don't know how to convince them, at least I don't think I have the ability." Harry was very dissatisfied with Hermione's plan, it was completely unrealistic.
If it's just a Defense Against the Dark Arts group, finding some good friends to communicate with each other and improve the level of Defense Against the Dark Arts is actually a pretty good idea, but Harry thinks Hermione's "ambition" is a bit too big.
"Many people are willing to believe in you, I think you should give them a chance." Hermione hesitated for a moment and said.
"Give them a chance to see my jokes?" Harry laughed at himself, "Don't kid yourself Hermione, you know the mentality of other people very well."
"I think Harry is right. Take our dormitory as an example. Only Neville is willing to believe in Harry." Ron stood on Harry's side, and he knew the attitude of others very well.
"If you want to reorganize the Defense Association, you should go to Anderson, he is better at this kind of thing." Harry repeated.
"He's not available, Harry." Hermione said helplessly, "And you don't have to belittle yourself, you are also very good at Defense Against the Dark Arts, and there is this..."
"What is this?"
"Albert gave it to me." Hermione handed the book to Harry.
Harry took the book and glanced at the silver imprint pattern on it: "Guide to Self-Defense".
"Self-Defense Guide"?" Ron asked suspiciously: "Is this a book written by Albert?"
"Yes, it said it was an early Christmas present for me. I have seen it several times. It was included in the spells we practiced in the Forbidden Forest last semester." Hermione explained to Harry: "It is said that this The book also refers to Auror's training, as long as you master the contents, you can have some self-protection ability."
"A book compiled by Albert?"
Harry was a little surprised. He flipped through the "Self-Defense Guide" casually, and found that there were some very basic spells on it, and he had learned many spells, such as the Iron Armor Curse and the Disarming Curse...
"It feels normal."
谷儃</span>That's right, Harry's first impression of this book was that it was average.
"Harry, this is just the most basic knowledge, as long as you read the whole book, you will gain a lot." Hermione could understand Harry's thoughts, because she thought so at first, but after reading the whole book After reading this book, she found that she had studied Defense Against the Dark Arts for five years and hadn't even learned the most basic things.
After reading it, Hermione even felt that this thing was more suitable as a textbook for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class than "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide".
"I dare say you don't even know the basics of casting spells, right? As long as you master the knowledge in this book, everyone's self-defense ability will be greatly improved." After reading this book, Hermione , Adoring Albert very much, she continued, "A total of 66 spells are recorded in it, and it teaches everyone to deal with various situations."
"Is this book really that powerful?"
Ron also leaned over, wanting to read the books that Hermione touted.
"I feel normal."
Harry really can't see the brilliance of this book, he has mastered most of the spells in it.
"No, Harry, I think Hermione is right." Ron took it over and flipped through it, then nodded and said, "This book is indeed very powerful."
"Really?"
"Harry, you feel very ordinary because Sirius has given you tutoring. You understand a lot of things, so you naturally feel very ordinary." Hermione reminded, "You have to turn to the back of the book."
"Okay, Hermione, I agree with you, can you lend me this book for a while?" Harry randomly flipped to the back part, and found that it actually taught the skills of tracking and anti-tracking.
He has to admit that he really doesn't understand this stuff, at least so far, no Defense Against the Dark Arts class will teach these things.
There are also teaching others how to use the illusion spell, teaching others how to build a simple and safe temporary camp, and teaching various practical knowledge and skills.
Well, Harry admits that compared to this book, "Defense Against Magic" really only deserves to be in the trash can.
"I'm right, this book is very suitable as our teaching material."
"But we have nowhere to practice spells."
Harry flipped through the book again, and saw how to cast a spell on his own house to protect his family from evil guests.
"If Umbridge finds out what we're up to, I think she'll be happy to put everyone in detention."
"We can build up the prototype of the Defense Association first, and we can slowly find a place to practice magic." Hermione said excitedly.
"Can we ask Fred to borrow their activity room?" Ron suggested.
"I'm afraid not. I don't think Albert will agree." Hermione shook her head and said, "Practicing magic may destroy the place. Fred and George have agreed to help find the activity room."
"Aren't you going to give up that unrealistic idea?" Harry closed the book, looked at Hermione with slightly raised eyebrows and said.
"You always need some support." Hermione said without thinking: "And there are some things that we need to learn from each other and improve each other."
"Okay, Hermione, tell me honestly what you want to do, I don't believe you just want to learn some magic." Harry looked at Hermione and asked seriously, "Your reasons It seems ridiculous to me, if it’s just the Defense Against the Dark Arts team, I believe that as long as you want to make up a dozen or so, it will be no problem.”
Ron moved back and forth between Harry and Hermione somewhat bewilderedly.
"Okay!" Hermione took a deep breath and said seriously: "The main reason is that I want to learn more about how to protect myself. But you should also know the current situation of Hogwarts, Um Rich is not very popular, and she has been disgusting others recently. I think it is not a good idea to give others opportunities to gather those who are willing to believe in you. You need more supporters Harry, let everyone be willing to believe in you, I think you don't want to be isolated either!"
"My plan is to recruit people from the Anti-Toad Alliance first." Hermione continued, "The Anti-Toad Alliance already has nearly a hundred members, and I believe there must be some of them who are willing to trust you. Combined, I believe everyone is willing to participate, they are all fed up with toads.”
"Hermione, I think your thinking is really naive." Harry said suddenly.
"What?" Hermione was a little taken aback.
"Actually, there is a way to convince them all at once."
"How?"
"To put it bluntly, the whole thing is about whether Voldemort is still alive or not." Harry pointed to the core issue, "For wizards who have never seen Voldemort's resurrection with their own eyes, I want to convince them that the cruel reality is true. It's a bit difficult, so..."
"So?"
"Just let them face the cruel reality. Sirius told me that there is a stone basin in Dumbledore's office that can present the memory to everyone. As long as other people watch the memory of Voldemort's resurrection, no one will I will doubt whether Voldemort is resurrected."
Hermione opened her mouth, stunned by Harry's approach.
"You are right, but... would Dumbledore be willing to lend us the stone basin?" Ron actually wanted to see the scene of Voldemort's resurrection, "and, if it is really possible to do that, Why didn't Dumbledore let Fudge watch your memory?"
"Because Fudge doesn't want to step down!" Harry sneered, "Whether he sees it or not, Fudge won't believe it. Once he admits that Voldemort is resurrected, he has to step down and get out."
"So what to do?" said Ron.
"If you want to form a Defense Against the Dark Arts team, then follow my advice." Harry said to Hermione, "If you want to believe it, invite it, if you don't want to believe it, forget it, and tell them clearly what we want What to do instead of finding a reason to bring them here."
"But Harry, everyone..."
"I don't ever feel like I need anyone's approval, and I don't want to spend time convincing anyone," Harry interrupted. A group of guys who want to see my jokes?"
"Sorry~IndoMTL.com~Maybe I went too far." Harry apologized to Hermione, "But I think Fred and George are right, you are indeed naive in some ways."
"Lend me this book for a while, I want to study the contents." Harry took the book and left.
"Hermione, are you okay?" Ron asked worriedly.
"Do you also think my method is unreliable?" Hermione asked Ron.
"I don't know." Ron said, shaking his head, "but I just want to learn something useful, and Harry must think so too."
