Hogwarts Pet Master

It has been three days since Kerry signed the contract with Fox. He has been facing Dumbledore's resentful eyes in the cafeteria these days, but it doesn't matter. After all, Fox has been contracted by it, and nothing else matters. Isn't it just a look of resentment? Have I, Kerry Black, faced too many challenges at Hogwarts these past few years?

Every year, so many people are offended by me, resent me, and hold grudges against me. Who am I afraid of? I'm such a stubborn person!

Inside the canteen.

"Yesterday I predicted that something bad will happen today." Seamus suddenly came to Kerry and said.

"Forget it, Seamus! Your divination class exploded again yesterday, and the teacup used for divination was blown to pieces. How did you see the content of the divination?" Ron on the side laughed.

"You don't understand, our explosion wizards have learned to divine fortune and misfortune from the dust of explosions." Dean said strangely.

Seamus rolled his eyes at the two people's sarcasm. He was already used to the weird language used by his classmates after the explosion, but everyone was just making fun of him, so he didn't pay much attention.

However, the divination content he just told Kerry was indeed false, just because today Gryffindor and Slytherin will finally have to take the new professor’s Defense Against the Dark Arts class. According to yesterday’s Ravenclaw and Hutch Patch's classmates reported that their new Defense Against the Dark Arts class was terrible. It was a class where even magic couldn't be used.

You must know that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class teaches students to use defensive magic. If magic is not taught now, then what class is there?

So yesterday, many students complained about the new professor Umbridge. It must have become more intense today when Kerry, the assassin of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, was present.

"You two are fools." Seamus said, and then he patted Kerry on the shoulder, "It depends on your performance today."

Of course Kerry knew what Seamus meant, but he didn't want to have a random conflict with the professor. After all, he was now a glorious prefect, and he had to maintain his image as a prefect. He secretly made up his mind that this school year Don't cause trouble and spend your time quietly.

In the afternoon, it began to drizzle. This season is relatively rainy. Although it doesn't rain very much, it just likes to rain non-stop.

When Kerry and the others entered the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, they found Professor Umbridge already sitting behind the podium. She was wearing the same fuzzy pink cardigan she had worn the night before, with the black velvet bow on top of her head.

The whole class was silent when they walked into the classroom. Professor Umbridge was still unknown, and no one knew how strict she was on classroom discipline.

Kerry casually found a seat at the back and sat down, then took out his story book and started writing by himself.

Harry, Ron and Neville found a less obvious corner seat to sit down, while Hermione and Draco sat at the front. Even if Kerry returned to take exams this school year, they were also competitors, so no matter what During class, both students must sit closest to the professor to study.

"Dingle bell!" The school bell rang.

Kerry stopped what he was writing and said hello to the professor in class. This courtesy was still required, even if he had to do his own thing after that.

"Good afternoon, classmates!" Umbridge said.

"Good afternoon, Professor Umbridge." The students replied in unison.

"Well, good!" she smiled. "Next, please take out your wands and quills."

Then she took out a surprisingly short wand and tapped it hard on the blackboard. Two lines of words immediately appeared on the blackboard: Defense Against the Dark Arts Returns to Basic Principles.

“This school year, you all have to take the O.W.Ls (Ordinary Wizarding Level Examination) exam, but because you frequently change professors at Hogwarts, you don’t have a systematic study, and as a result, you have not yet reached the standard level of this exam.

But you can rest assured that this year, what we will be studying is a carefully arranged, theory-centered, Defense Against Magic course approved by the Ministry of Magic. After completing it, you will be guaranteed to pass the exam smoothly. "

She tapped the blackboard again, and "Course Objectives" appeared.

l. Understand the basic principles of magic defense.

2. Learn to identify the situations in which magic defense can be legally used.

3. Assess defensive magic in the context of practical application.

After seeing several course contents, Hermione and Draco raised their hands at the same time.

Umbridge didn't want to care at first, but the Malfoys were a big family in the wizarding world, and she couldn't ignore the children of such a family. She just looked at Draco and said, "My dear, do you have any questions?"

Hermione was very dissatisfied with the professor's different treatment, but she didn't want to lose her temper randomly before she knew who the other person was.

"Professor, your content does not include the use of defensive magic." Draco said.

"Oh, dear, there is no need to use these magics in the current magic world! Even Fu...'that person' has been caught. You will no longer need to use those magics in the future. You only need to learn theoretical knowledge. Yes." Umbridge laughed.

"There is more than one bad guy in this world: Voldemort. His being captured does not mean world peace. What if we encounter a bad wizard? What can theoretical knowledge do? Determine what kind of magic the other party uses, and then we use this theoretical knowledge to make a A wizard who can run away?" Hermione said angrily.

"Shut up and please raise your hands before speaking in my class." Umbridge said with a glare. "Also, no one will attack children like you. The Ministry of Magic believes that it is enough for you to learn theoretical knowledge. This is also the meaning of the existence of the school."

Not to be outdone, Hermione glared at Umbridge.

The class fell into silence. Facing such a professor, everyone could only complain in their hearts.

"Shashasha!" At this time, everyone heard the sound of writing coming from behind.

Only then did the students remember that there was a powerful partner among them who had not spoken out.

At this time, Kerry was writing the story seriously and turned a deaf ear to the noise in the classroom.

Umbridge walked over and wanted to snatch Kerry's notebook, but she remembered the other person's identity and gave up the idea. "My dear, you should listen carefully in class!" she said softly.

Kerry didn't even raise his head, "Professor, I can move freely in class! This is something that professors all agree on. No one told you, right?"

His words brought smiles to the displeased faces of the students - here we come, our Defense Against the Dark Arts killer is about to take action!

"Dear! My class is not special, and if you do this, you may fail the O.W.Ls." Umbridge said while suppressing her anger.

"Professor, such exams are for better jobs in the future, and I am already a reserve member of the magical creature research team because of my special physique, and I have participated in several battles with dark wizards. Professor Bullydo can vouch for me.

And what battles against dark wizards have you been involved in? Do you really think I still need to take the purely theoretical and useless O.W.Ls formulated by the Ministry of Magic, which can be passed by people like you who have never participated in combat? "

He raised his head and smiled contemptuously.

"You...you actually said that the theoretical O.W.Ls we formulated are useless? You are questioning the Ministry of Magic. As a student like you, I...I must file a complaint against you."

Umbridge was really angry with Kerry. She pointed her wand at Kerry, but she didn't dare to do it at all. She had already done a preliminary understanding of Kerry's contracted magical creatures before coming to school. She was still very aware of its existence. And the Black family was something she couldn't afford to offend at all.

After saying that, she quickly walked out of the classroom, slammed the door and left.

"Woo, that's great, it feels so good to piss her off!"

"I'm right! I knew Kerry would confront her." Seamus shouted.

There was a carnival in the classroom.

Kerry looked at this scene and sighed helplessly. He really wanted to be a good student and a good prefect. He didn't want to make any comments about Umbridge's teaching, but she insisted on coming here to do it for him. If you don't feel comfortable, why bother? Can't we all get along well?
