Marvel: I, Hermione, am from Hogwarts!

"Introduction to Dangerous Magical Experiments... Do you enjoy conducting magical experiments?"

I not only enjoy experiments, but also gardening, potions, alchemy, bio-engineering, and even Avada Kedavra... Hermione glanced at her and patiently continued:

"I'm just starting out, I haven't even started yet, I'm just observing."

Luna nodded. "Then you have to be careful not to misuse the spell or accidentally die."

Hermione: "..."

I thank you for your auspicious words.

However, seeing Luna's serious expression, she knew that the other party meant no harm and was genuinely worried about her safety.

"it is good."

The two of them quietly read the book, while the wizards around them stared in disbelief.

"My goodness, that freshman is so brave! He actually dared to talk to the library witch in the book!"

"Yeah, what's wrong with the witch today? Normally, apart from Harry Potter and Ron Weasley, anyone else who dares to disturb her reading would have been punched all the way to Diagon Alley."

"Even Harry and Ron got beaten up a few times for bothering her."

"Huh, is the witch really that bad-tempered? She seems pretty quiet usually."

"Heh, the Slytherin Quidditch team might have a slightly different perspective from yours."

Listening to the whispers around her, Luna tilted her head and stared at Hermione's profile, lost in thought.

……

"My God, what is this writing?"

In the classroom, Hermione looked at the answer sheets one by one, rubbed her forehead, and kept drawing crosses on them with her hand.

"Someone who's about to take the OWL exam can't even answer such a simple question."

She was filled with despair, and murmured softly:

"No wonder so many fifth-graders in the original story couldn't even use a disarming spell properly. This is second-grade material!"

It has to be said that Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts instruction is truly terrible!

Barty Crouch Jr.'s value is still rising!

That's right, she was currently helping Lockhart grade the senior students' Defense Against the Dark Arts exams.

As for why Lockhart himself didn't approve it...

It's very simple, you don't know how!

Chapter 76 The Unheard Whispers

Of course, he couldn't admit it himself, only saying that he had many letters to write back to fans and needed to sign autographs, and he was too busy to handle them all at the moment.

They called it training Hermione, the teaching assistant.

Hermione sighed softly.

She finally understood: Dumbledore had brought her here to be his slave.

In the Marvel universe, she made S.H.I.E.L.D. and Stark Industries her slaves; now it's finally her turn.

What a wonderful reincarnation.

"Harry, Harry, Harry."

As Lockhart signed autographs, he smiled and said to Harry beside him, "Can you think of a better way to keep me in jail than by helping me write back to my fans?"

Sitting to his left, Harry gave an awkward but polite smile.

"I never expected this, Professor."

After leaving the library, not only Hermione, but even Harry was forced by him to write a reply, euphemistically called "an exchange between three famous people".

The three of them stayed in the classroom until late at night.

"Fame is a fickle friend. Celebrities should act like celebrities. Remember that."

Lockhart spoke earnestly about philosophical principles, completely forgetting his disheveled appearance during the day.

"You mean the kind of thing celebrities do is abandon their students and run away?" Hermione thought to herself.

"Ah ha ha……"

Harry didn't reply, but looked at Hermione with pleading eyes.

Noticing Harry's gaze, Hermione held up a stack of exam papers.

"Don't look at me, how about we switch places?"

Looking at the page full of red X's, Harry swallowed hard and forced a smile, "I think I'll just write my letter, hahaha..."

"Professor Lockhart, have you considered joining the Ministry of Magic?"

Hermione suddenly said:

"I think with your heroic record, you should be qualified for an important position in the Ministry of Magic. You might even be able to compete for Minister of Magic in the future."

Harry looked up abruptly, his eyes wide as he stared at Hermione.

No, are you serious?

Hearing such outrageous remarks from Hermione for the first time, he instinctively wanted to refute them, but remembering that Hermione was right next to him, he managed to suppress the impulse.

Lockhart was taken aback by what he heard, but then he perked up and sat up straight, leaning forward to look at Hermione.

He whispered:

"Do you really think so?"

“Yes,” Hermione nodded, her tone serious. “I think you would be perfect for being a politician.”

Unaware of the subtle sarcasm in Hermione's words, Lockhart rubbed his hands together excitedly.

"It seems great minds think alike. I had thought the same thing before. With my abilities, it certainly wouldn't be a problem, but..."

He paused for a moment before continuing:

"However, if I really went to the Ministry of Magic, I probably wouldn't have time to go on adventures and publish new books that everyone loves to read, so I had to reluctantly give it up in the end."

"This is all for my fans!"

You're afraid of being exposed, aren't you...? Hermione added his true thoughts.

Fans are easy to fool, but the Ministry of Magic is mostly staffed with elites. It's fine for him to be an idol in the entertainment industry, but if he were to go to a department like the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, where he deals with vicious dark wizards every day, his image would probably collapse in no time.

"is it?"

Hermione smiled, neither confirming nor denying, then gave a mysterious look:

"But think about it, if you can do something big at the Ministry of Magic, like Alastor Moody, successfully capture some notorious criminals, or uncover some major conspiracy that could overturn the wizarding world, you can write these stories into a new book."

"Compared to adventures in caves filled with dark creatures, these stories of good versus evil are more appealing to readers, have more selling points, and are more immersive. Their sales will definitely far exceed those of current works."

She patiently guided him:

"Moreover, with these achievements and your reputation in the wizarding world, your approval rating is definitely higher than others. You will surely rise rapidly in the future and become Minister of Magic in no time!"

"I'm a big fan of yours, and these heartfelt words are all for your own good!"

Her voice was seductive, like the whispers of a devil, echoing in my ears.

Lockhart listened with rapt attention, completely absorbed.

"If all else fails, we can arrange for a dark wizard to assassinate you during your speech, and you'll suffer some minor injuries. Then we can spread rumors that it was sent by our competitors..."

Holy crap, what did I just hear?!

Is this something I can listen to?!

Unlike Lockhart, who was lost in his own thoughts, Harry looked at Hermione with eyes full of terror.

what you up to?!

Can I go first and then you can discuss this?

Stop it now!

Having been half-friends with Hermione for a long time, he understood her hidden dark side better than anyone else.

What do you mean by "for the good of others"? That's the kind of expression she only shows when she's about to completely rip someone off.

"Granger, do you really think I can achieve that much?"

Lockhart swallowed hard, his gaze fixed intently on Hermione.

"Of course, as long as someone is there to help you, you can definitely do it."

Hermione stared at Lockhart, a wide smile slowly spreading across her face.

Harry was sweating profusely, closed his eyes, and prayed for Merlin's protection, his head almost buried under the table.

Suddenly, he thought that living with his Uncle Vernon might not be so bad.

Fortunately, Lockhart regained consciousness at the last moment and quickly shook his head.
