I Have a Big Problem with My Hogwarts

Chapter 281 278. Dueling Club

The weather is getting colder and colder, especially after December, Hogwarts students ushered in the first snow this winter.

Hermione and the others' plan went very smoothly. The Polyjuice Potion is now being brewed in the bathroom where Myrtle is, and they just need to wait quietly for the moment it is completed.

However, there were some small problems in the progress of Lynn.

On the third day after he sent the letter to Old John, the owl flew back again, but the letter did not contain what he wanted. Old John said that the information Lynn wanted to know was more difficult to obtain evidence, and he needed at least two weeks. Time to send someone to verify.

Although Lin En was a little disappointed, he also knew that such a thing should not be rushed, and he could afford to wait for two weeks.

His life as a professor at Hogwarts had to go on.

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class the week before Christmas, Lynn announced to the students that with the approval of Professor Dumbledore, they would hold a duel club before the Christmas holiday. All wizards can participate.

As soon as the news spread, the little wizards, who were suppressed by the incident where the secret room had been opened before and some students were attacked, became restless.

Three weeks have passed since the day Finlaye was attacked, and after that, the Chamber of Secrets seems to have fallen silent. No one in Hogwarts was attacked again, but the murderer was not caught for one day, and one day for Finlaye. The hearts of the students who did not come out of the school hospital safely had to be kept on.

Recently, the habit of wearing amulets has even become popular in the castle, because no one knows what the monster in the secret room is, and no matter whether it is useful or not, the little wizards always feel that they should bring something on their bodies to feel at ease.

Regarding the announcement of the Dueling Club, both Harry and Hermione agreed to go, and Ron did not object.

So, at eight o'clock in the evening, they hurried to the auditorium, and the five long dining tables disappeared, and a gilded stage appeared along one wall, lit by hundreds of candles floating overhead. The ceiling was once again as black as velvet, and almost all the students from the school came, crowded together, each holding his own wand, and his face was full of excitement.

"I heard that the professor who taught us dueling skills this time is Professor Lockhart." The three of them squeezed into the bustling crowd, and Hermione said, "I just don't know who his opponent is?"

Harry seemed to know some inside information: "I heard that Professor Flitwick was a dueling master when he was young. Maybe he was Professor Lockhart's partner."

Ron looked at the high platform, and said regretfully, "Unfortunately, you guessed wrong Harry. Professor Lockhart found someone you least like."

They heard Ron's words and looked towards the high platform. Besides Professor Lockhart who was wearing a dark green robe, beside him stood a man with greasy hair, a cold and pale face, and a man in a black robe that never changed.

Harry cried out in pain: "Oh! It turned out to be Snape."

"Don't worry, Harry, we're not here for Potions class today. The professor who leads the Dueling Club is also Professor Lockhart." Hermione comforted him.

Ron's expression also became a little excited.

"Yes, Professor Lockhart and Snape, I really want to know which of them is better."

Because this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts class was taught by Lynn pretending to be Lockhart, so Lockhart's strength was not that bad in their minds, and they learned a lot in Lynn's class, at least in the In terms of knowledge and strength, Harry and the three of them recognized it.

"Everyone, well, it's time for you to calm down. I know you are very excited now. After all, I learned from Professor Dumbledore that Hogwarts has not held any large-scale activities for a long time, so in order to Let you learn and improve your actual combat skills, I specially applied to Professor Dumbledore to start this duel club."

Lynn used the amplifying spell so that every student in the auditorium could hear his voice. After he finished explaining the purpose of this duel club, the little wizards present burst into cheers.

They have indeed been suppressed for a long time. Apart from the Quidditch competition in the castle, there is really no event that can bring all the students of the academy together.

"Now let me introduce my assistant, Professor Severus Snape. Actually, you don't need to introduce him, because you all know him." Lynn staggered his position, letting the little wizard in the castle They all saw the big black bat spirit standing beside him.

This time, at most, the students in the Snake Academy cheered, and there were some things mixed in, "The professor gave him a hard lesson!" "Let him go to the school hospital to lie down for a month, so that no one will give us Assignment homework!" and other discordant voices.

Snape still had a cold face and didn't say anything, but in fact, he had already started to think about how to embarrass Lynn in front of so many people in the future.

When Lynn went to him and asked him to help as an assistant, he readily accepted.

Don't get me wrong, he wasn't addressing Lockhart, but anyone who sat in the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

"Professor Snape is no worse than any professor in Hogwarts in terms of actual combat, but the most outstanding thing about him is his title of Potions Master, and Potions is recognized as the best in the wizarding world." One of the most difficult subjects, if it weren't for the Potions professor being even more difficult to recruit, maybe your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor would not be me, but your Professor Snape."

After listening to what Lynn said, the expression on Snape's face still remained unchanged, but if a careful person observes the corners of his mouth, they will find that the corners of his mouth are slightly raised.

Hmph, it's nice to say a compliment, but after a while you should still lose face.

Lynn also glanced at Snape out of the corner of his eye.

Oh, after all, the dean who has been teased for so many years may not be able to show mercy later, so I will praise him to make him happy.

When the two of them were thinking about Xiao Nian on the stage, Harry and the three of them were also whispering below.

"Judging from Professor Lockhart's tone, he seemed a little afraid of Snape, and he started to say good things to make him take it easy later." Ron looked worried.

Although Lockhart was not his favorite professor, Snape must be the professor he hated the most, so of course he was on Lockhart's side now.

Hermione had full confidence in Lockhart.

"Maybe he was just afraid of embarrassing Snape later, so he said something kind in advance to reassure him."
