Harry Potter’s Strongest Senior

"Crouch, long time no see." Horace came over enthusiastically.

​​

"You must be wondering why I am here." Horace sold out.

​​

Sean, who was beside him, couldn't help but say, "It wasn't Dumbledore who invited you to teach, right?"

​​

Horace glanced at Sean, "I remember you, Sean Grylls, you're right, I went to Hogwarts as a substitute."

​​

"Ah, what happened to Professor Snape?" Sean asked.

​​

In the original plot, in 1996, Snape was transferred to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and there was no one to teach in Potions, so Dumbledore rehired Horace.

​​

"Don't you know Crouch?" Horace looked at Old Barty as if he didn't know much.

​​

"Uh, I'm retired at home now, and I rarely inquire about things outside." In order to hide his embarrassment, Crouch deliberately patted Chris on the shoulder.

​​

Old Barty seems to be at home leisurely, but in fact, he is not feeling well, especially now, what is called the tree-falling hozen powder is reflected most vividly.

​​

Even a retired director would usually keep in touch with the secretary. Some retired but still retained authority, and former subordinates would often come to visit.

​​

And this holiday, old Barty, no one of his former subordinates came to see him, and no one wrote to chat with him.

​​

The matter of sending Snape to Belgium is the responsibility of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department. The staff in the department already knew about it, but no one mentioned it to old Batty.

​​

Horace is also a good person. He saw the embarrassment of old Barty at a glance, so he said with a smile.

​​

"Dumbledore kept secrets, and it was only yesterday that he suddenly came to me. Snape was sent to participate in the project content of the Design Competition. I will take the class this semester. Next semester, Snape will teach by himself."

​​

"I take it, there is such a thing?" Sean was also a little surprised.

​​

"The competition is expected to be designed for six projects, which is a bit long. Snape will stay in Belgium for six months, um, this should be able to say?" Horace said.

​​

"This is a brand new gameplay? Can I still get my 1,000 gold Galleons?"

​​

Sean understands the content of the Goblet of Fire in the original plot, he has absolute confidence to get the first place, and then happily pockets the prize money.

​​

But now, the format of the competition has changed greatly, the number of people has increased greatly, and three events have been added, which is definitely not a good thing.

​​

"It's hard to make money." Sean had a lot of opinions on this new competition system.

​​

There were more and more people on the platform. The Weasley family walked out of the pillar in a mighty manner. After Harry had a godfather, his life became more and more happy.

​​

Sirius and Lupin went to the platform together with Harry. Lupin could have gone to Hogwarts first, but Dumbledore asked that, in order to ensure the safety of the students, the staff also needed to take the train when the school started. Back to school together.

​​

"Harry!" Hermione called, grinning.

​​

"Hermione, how was your holiday?" Harry asked.

​​

"Not bad, our family went to Liverpool to play for a few days, how about you?" Hermione lowered her voice and approached Harry and asked, "Have you made any preparations for the Tournament?"

​​

"My holiday has been so fulfilling, it's almost an exam week." Harry drooped his eyelids and looked tired.

​​

The students stepped onto the train skillfully, and Cassius and Graham had already occupied seats for them.

​​

"Who is that old man who was talking to you just now? I think he got on the train too." Cassius asked curiously.

​​

"That one, but it's our professor's professor." Sean said.

​​

"What?"

​​

Chris said bluntly, "He's our substitute professor of potions this semester, Horace Slughorn."

​​

"Substitute professor? Where's Professor Snape?" Graham wondered.

​​

"I was sent to Belgium, along with professors from two other schools, to design the competition for the next school year," Chris explained.

​​

"Chris, do you have a chance to be selected for the national team?" Cassius talked about a topic that everyone was very concerned about.

​​

"Needless to say, Sean, if he is not selected, I will wash my hair upside down. Our class is looking forward to your being selected."

​​

Chris flipped up her blond hair and said with a relaxed expression, "The top students in the senior class are all top students in the improvement class, and I don't have much competitive advantage with them. I'll try my best. Of course I'm very happy to be selected, and it's not too bad if I didn't. Disappointed."

​​

"It's really hard for you to improve your classes. You have to make up classes every Monday and Friday night, so you have less spare time." Cassius said.

The big man Graham gave Cassius a backstab, "Even if there is less spare time, Chris's schoolwork has been done so well, why don't you worry about us?"

​​

"What are you worried about?" Cassius asked suspiciously.

​​

"There are only six months left, and I have nothing in my heart." Like most fifth graders, Graham felt a worry in his heart.

​​

"God, o.w.l.s test! Good day, why do you say such bad things." Cassius complained.

​​

"I lost the o.w.l.s test. I forgot about this." Because he never paid attention to the topic of study, Sean ignored this important exam in the wizarding world.

​​

The test he took at the beginning of the school year was a test that Dumbledore treated him specially, and if he passed the test, he would have the right to listen freely.

​​

But o. w. l. The s test has a Ministry of Magic background, and Dumbledore has no right to exempt anyone from the test.

​​

"Sean, is your bar still hiring?" Cassius asked.

​​

"Why? Are you going to work?" Sean said.

​​

Cassius smiled bitterly, "I'm not planning to do it after graduation. With my grades, it's not my turn to have a good job."

​​

"There's still one semester left, so hurry up and review it, you should be able to save it," Graham said.

​​

"Have you reviewed for the holidays?" Cassius said, staring into Graham's eyes.

​​

"I watched the potions class for a while, those recipes are too hard to remember." Graham said weakly.

​​

"You actually reviewed secretly? You betrayed the organization!" Cassius said exaggeratedly. The four of them in the dormitory made an appointment to go back for vacation and none of them read books, just played.

​​

o. w. l. The s test is not very difficult for Sean, and passing it safely is not a problem.

​​

There are 12 tests in total, covering 7 compulsory courses at Hogwarts, astronomy, spells, defense against the dark arts, herbal medicine, history of magic, potions, and transfiguration.

​​

And 5 elective courses: Ancient Rune, Arithmetic Divination, Protection of Magical Creatures, Divination, and Muggle Studies.

​​

Elective courses and compulsory courses often conflict in class time, so no one can study 12 courses at the same time. Students can choose a few of them to take the exam according to their future career aspirations.

​​

It is also not ruled out that, like Hermione, she was valued by the dean and applied for a time shifter, so she could take multiple courses at the same time.

​​

Of the seven required courses, six of which Sean taught himself, Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Transfiguration were the easiest ones to him, while astronomy, herbal medicine, and history of magic were equivalent to liberal arts in his opinion. As a liberal arts student in his previous life, he was still good at memorizing things.

​​

These six courses are the subjects that Sean has to assess in Dumbledore every year at the beginning of the school year. Only the Potions class requires frequent hands-on practice, so he listens to every class.

​​

As for the elective courses, he didn't choose any of them. According to the school's curriculum arrangement, he had to take at least two elective courses at the beginning of the third grade.

​​

But Sean never chose, and neither Snape nor Dumbledore reminded him. I wonder if they wanted to let Sean in o. w. l. The s test sucks.

​​

o. w. l. Seven compulsory courses are required for the s test, and at least two elective courses must be selected. Those who are capable can choose a few more.

​​

As soon as Hermione entered the third grade, Professor McGonagall applied for a time converter for him. In the original plot, she was in o. w. l. In the s exam, he took 11 subjects and got good grades or above, but Harry only took 9 subjects.

​​

Voldemort took 12 exams, all of which were excellent, and Bill and Percy from the Weasleys also took 12 exams, but it is unknown whether they passed all of them, Barty Jr. Crouch also took 12 subjects, all of which were good or better.

​​

Sean doesn't plan to compare himself with these seniors. He plans to choose only two elective courses. From now on, one semester will be enough.

​​

Among the 5 elective courses, ancient spells, arithmetic and divination, and divination can be learned, but it is not necessary. He has better choices. For him, protection of magical creatures and Muggle research are simpler and easier.

​​

The protection of magical animals is mainly to memorize the body structure, living habits, living environment, etc. of magical animals. There are no practical exercises in the exam, only written exams. This is not difficult for the liberal arts student Sean.

​​

As for the Muggle studies class, Sean dared to say that no one in the wizarding world knew Muggles better than him.
