Marvel: I, Hermione, am from Hogwarts!

"Professor, I've seen some unusual plants in books, but I've never seen them in a greenhouse. For example, there are two plants: 'poisonous tentacles' and 'Dongda biting cabbage.' I wonder if you have any here..."

Sprout looked at Hermione with a strange expression.

“These are all very dangerous plants, including mandrake. You saw what happened today. However, mandrake can still be used to brew a potion to remove petrification, but the other two are a bit… What do you need these for?”

“It’s just research,” Hermione said, her clear eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge. “You know, mandrake can be used to make petrification medicine, so there’s no reason why these two can’t be developed into some new uses.”

Sprout looked at her suspiciously:

"Just research?"

Hermione nodded frantically:

"Just research!"

Looking at Hermione's adorable face and sincere expression, Professor Sprout, with his filter fully applied, thought for a moment, then took out two packets of seeds from his bag and handed them to Hermione.

"Alright, I don't have many of these dangerous things left. These two packs are the last of my stock. I hope you can make good use of them."

"Thank you, Professor!"

Hermione left happily.

Looking at Hermione's retreating figure, Sprout felt uneasy, as if he had just made a wrong decision.

……

Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office.

"Break up with the female ghost..."

Hermione flipped through the book in her hands, marveling at it.

I was just casually flipping through it, and surprisingly, it turned out to be quite good, regardless of its authenticity.

It has a similar feel to a typical Blue Planet fantasy novel.

It's actually quite good-looking, damn it... Hermione couldn't help but curse inwardly as she watched it become more and more interesting.

I never imagined that I could read web novels in another world.

No wonder Lockhart's books are so famous. Putting aside the adventure material he uses, his writing ability was top-notch even in his previous life.

To some extent, he is indeed a talented individual.

This guy really shouldn't be a professor; he's a natural writer and actor.

Seeing Hermione engrossed in her book, Lockhart said with a smug look:

"This is my experience of exorcising the ghost of Wanlun in my early years. I know that wizards of your age must greatly admire my rich adventurous experiences..."

He started boasting.

While bragging, he didn't forget to look in the mirror and meticulously groom his flashy gold robe.

Hermione looked at it for a while longer before folding a corner of the page, closing the book, and saying:

"Professor Lockhart, as your teaching assistant, I must remind you that your first Defense Against the Dark Arts class is in ten minutes. Have you prepared your lesson plan yet?"

"Please don't tell me you're planning to give them a whole lecture on 'The Wonderful Adventures of Lockhart'."

Chapter 74 Teaching Accidents 2.0

Upon hearing this, Lockhart's eyes gleamed with confidence.

"Of course not. Besides my exciting adventure stories, there will also be in-class quizzes. I need to understand their level so that I can develop a more targeted teaching plan in the future."

As he spoke, Lockhart picked up a stack of test papers from the table and handed them to Hermione.

"Even though you're my teaching assistant, if you can't answer these important questions, you'll still need extra tutoring!"

Hermione took the test paper, glanced at it briefly, and then narrowed her eyes.

"What is Gilderoy Lockhart's favorite color...? What level of Dark Magic defense is this question testing?"

"Uh……"

Lockhart's expression froze for a moment, then returned to normal, as if he hadn't understood Hermione's question.

"As the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor personally hired by Dumbledore, I, Gilderoy Lockhart, an internationally renowned figure and author, a recipient of the Order of Merlin, Third Class, an honorary member of the League Against the Dark Arts, and a five-time winner of the Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award, personally believe that strengthening the understanding between teacher and student before beginning formal teaching is more important than directly teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts, isn't that right?"

He said this without batting an eye, and even gave Hermione what he thought was a charming smile.

Here we go again… Hermione sighed.

"Although Miss Granger defeated Quirrell, I am far superior to that trash. I have a little surprise for you in class later, and you will see my powerful side."

Lockhart patted the birdcage next to him, which was covered by a black cloth, looking very confident.

Yes, when it comes to being utterly useless, Quirrell really can't compare to you...

By the way, you two seem to have graduated from the same college, right?

First came Quirrell, then Lockhart.

Ravenclaw's reputation has been damaged.

ten minutes later.

Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

A group of young wizards stared blankly at the test papers in their hands, all looking at Hermione.

Hermione leaned against the second-floor railing and quietly nudged Lockhart in his direction.

meaning is:

Don't look at me; the questions he set have nothing to do with me.

Lockhart had previously informed everyone that Hermione would become his teaching assistant, and that it was Dumbledore's personal decision.

After the initial surprise, everyone quickly accepted it.

The witches of Gryffindor, that's normal.

"You know, although I have the most charming smile in the wizarding world, I don't use my smile to exorcise the Wren Ghost."

Lockhart said.

Yes, you were driven away by someone else… Hermione thought to herself.

After thirty minutes of torture, Lockhart finally finished his endless self-introduction.

If we're talking about narcissism, among all the people she's met, probably only Tony Stark can rival him.

"Besides theory, practical lessons are also very important for Defense Against the Dark Arts. Now, as your professor, I will show you how to deal with the darkest and most evil creatures in the world."

Lockhart picked up the birdcage covered by the black curtain and placed it on the lectern, his expression solemn.

“You will face the most terrifying things in this classroom, but with me here, you will not be harmed.”

Based on your description, I have reason to suspect that Voldemort is inside this birdcage… Hermione rolled her eyes.

Seeing this, everyone was also affected by his emotions and couldn't help but become nervous.

Under the gaze of dozens of eyes, Lockhart suddenly ripped off the black cloth.

A group of chattering Smurfs appeared before the little wizards.

"puff……"

Many people couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Seamus laughed and said, "A Cornish elf?"

It's too dark, too evil, too terrifying... *sigh*

"That's right!"

Completely ignoring the mockery below, Lockhart said:

"Don't underestimate them, these are very troublesome little devils. Watch how I deal with these dark creatures!"

As he spoke, he flung open the birdcage door.

Countless Smurfs burst out of their cages and flew around the classroom in a chaotic manner.

Instantly, the classroom became a mess, filled with screams.

Hermione leaned on the armrest, looking at the chaotic classroom, and helplessly pressed the bridge of her nose.

Lockhart was right about one thing: these little things can be quite mischievous.

Choosing these courses as teaching materials for second-year wizards is quite appropriate, since dealing with dark creatures is one of the topics in the Defense Against the Dark Arts course.

It can only be said that Lockhart does have some theoretical teaching ability.

Of course, this is only in pure theory.

As for actual combat...

Watching Gargamel below suffer terribly, Lockhart smiled with satisfaction. Now they had a profound understanding of how "terrible" the elves were, and it was finally time for him to display his power.

Once you subdue these little elves, you'll earn the admiring gazes of the young wizards.

Theoretically, that makes sense. If he can easily handle this situation, at least no one will doubt whether he is a qualified professor.
