Professor The Vampire Earl of Hogwarts

"Professor Dracula is really here?" Lee Jordan was incredulous, "I thought he was about to abandon us."

"I knew it!" George jumped up excitedly, and gave Fred a tacit high-five, "I knew that Professor Dracula had made a bet with us that he could teach us until we graduated, and he must be reluctant to part with those dozens of gold coins." Garen!"

"Sure enough, we are the biggest contributors to letting Professor Dracula stay!" Fred also said happily.

Lee Jordan looked at the Weiss twins with disdain, moved a few steps to the side, and acted like he didn't know these two shameless people...

As the first duel club gathering since the beginning of the new semester, the auditorium was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder.

Whether it's the junior wizards or the senior graduates, they haven't practiced duels in the dueling club for two months, and now they are a little nostalgic.

They spontaneously gathered around the dueling platform in the center of the auditorium, looking up at Professor Dracula who hadn't listened to his lecture for a long time, their eyes full of eagerness.

On the clock tower of Hogwarts, the melodious bell rang slowly.

With the sound of the club's opening bell, Dracula raised his hands and pressed down gently.

The noisy discussions, laughing, and talking gradually stopped, and after a while, the auditorium became completely silent.

"Nice to meet you, dear students."

Dracula's mellow voice sounded in the center of the auditorium, but it seemed to echo everywhere in the auditorium, so that no matter how far away the little wizard stood, he could hear it clearly.

"You should also know that I left for more than a month before the start of the Christmas holiday." He said softly, "Maybe some people will be very surprised, what did I do?"

"I also know that some people may guess, am I bored and ready to abandon you?"

Dracula smiled and looked at the young wizards under the duel stage with a gentle expression.

Seeing Dracula's gentle gaze, Lee Jordan and many other young wizards lowered their heads.

They fell into deep self-blame, feeling that they shouldn't doubt their professor like this, and they should have confidence in Professor Dracula.

However, Dracula's next words caught them by surprise.

"That's right, I'm just bored, and I just want to abandon you!" He said happily.

Lee Jordan and other young wizards: "???"

Does Professor Dracula really want to be so direct?

"Professor, why are you leaving?"

"Professor, what will happen to Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts after you leave?"

"professor……"

The quiet auditorium became noisy again, and the young wizards were in a turmoil, asking why Professor Dracula left Hogwarts one by one, and some young wizards who liked Dracula very much cried and begged the professor not to abandon them.

Dracula has been teaching at Hogwarts for more than a year. Although he sometimes deviates from the textbook, the content of the lectures catches the students off guard; Sometimes he will lead the students to carry out devil training, which makes people extremely painful...

But no one can deny that Dracula is indeed a very qualified professor, and he is also a good professor who will not favor any school because he has not been divided into schools.

Moreover, Dracula is also the first professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts who can be re-elected at Hogwarts.

If he had really left Hogwarts out of boredom, who knew what kind of scumbag Dumbledore's next Defense Against the Dark Arts professor would be?What if the next Quirrell is found?

So no matter what grade the students were in, except for those squeamish little wizards who hated devil training, no one wanted Dracula to leave Hogwarts.

Standing on the dueling platform, Dracula looked at the shocked, incredulous, and resistant expressions of the young wizards below, and heard the voices of persuasion and persuasion, a soft smile slowly formed on the corner of his mouth.

"Everyone, please be quiet first." He chuckled lightly, "I have something else to say."

Dracula's voice rang in the ears of every student present, interrupting the noise in the auditorium.

The little wizards looked up at Dracula's smiling face, and slowly became quiet, wanting to hear what Professor Dracula had to say.

"Actually, last semester, when I was more than a month away from the end of the semester, I really felt a little bored." When the auditorium was completely quiet, Dracula said slowly, "So I let myself relax. I took a vacation, went to see an old friend, and met some new friends along the way."

"This vacation has actually given me a lot of rewards, and I have discovered a lot of interesting things. It is indeed much more interesting than the boring life of lecturing at Hogwarts every day." He said frankly.

When the young wizards in the audience heard this sentence, they all showed worried expressions, for fear that Dracula would say something like not continuing to teach in the future.

"However, those interesting things are not encountered every day." Dracula turned around, "It may only take two or three days to encounter interesting things."

"The rest of the time is still a boring life for decades, and it's not even as interesting as watching you fight at Hogwarts."

The little wizards in the auditorium were a little dazed at first, and then they understood the subtext in Dracula's words, and all showed expressions of surprise and joy.

"Yes, in a vibrant school like Hogwarts, there are at least new faces every year, and new surprises every day. There are always some little wizards who can catch my eyes..." Dracula laughed Said, "Of course, it's not for nothing that makes my eyes go dark."

The little wizards laughed knowingly.

Lee Jordan poked the arms of the two twin roommates beside him, and asked them in a low voice if it was the two of them who made Professor Dracula's eyes go dark.

Fred and George justly refuted his "ridiculous" remarks.

"Besides, I also discovered some new things today." Dracula shook his head with a smile, watched the reactions of the young wizards in the audience, and continued, "Actually, no matter how long you live, there are always some Stuff we didn't know about."

"So, while teaching you your homework, while doing self-study, this is the most suitable life I can think of."

Dracula's speech is not long, but every sentence is his true thoughts.

It is rare for him to chat with people sincerely like today, let alone speak the truth to such a large group of young wizards.

The experience during this period did give Dracula some new ideas.

First came the meeting with Andros.Andros would rather spend his whole life, even after his death, in the secret realm on the top of Mount Olympus, just to block the despicable Haierbo's chance to do evil and seal it firmly.

This made Dracula a little touched.

Later, Newt told him about what happened decades ago during the Global Wizarding War at Dracula's Castle, and also showed his enthusiasm for magical animals in front of Dracula.

Newt is almost a hundred years old, but he is still sincere to all magical animals. When he carefully records the characteristics of magical animals in his leather book, his expression is really like a child who carefully observes the moving of ants like.

This also brought a little touch to Dracula.

In the end, LeMay analyzed the similarity between Moran and Haierbo's black energy, and together they came to the conclusion that all black magic comes from the same source.

This incident is to let Dracula know that even though he has lived for more than 1000 years, there are still some things that he has never understood.

So when you are usually bored, can't you find something more meaningful to do?Can't you find the source of all dark energy while you're bored?

The conclusions that Dracula and Flamel came to together also made him uncertain whether there were any other problems with black magic and dark energy.

If something goes wrong with the same source of black magic one day, but Hogwarts students don't know anything about this form of magic, then they are likely to suffer from this kind of thing.

Dracula couldn't accept that his students didn't know anything about black magic.

"Today we don't learn how to duel." A smile appeared in his eyes, and he looked at the young wizards who were always giving him clear eyes, "I want to give you a temporary public class on Defense Against the Dark Arts, you want to listen to it?" Is it?" The little wizards in the audience were a little surprised at first, and then they were slightly relieved.

It's been a long time since Professor Dracula's devil training, and I'm afraid I'll end up with a sore body if I resume the training directly today. It's really more comfortable to switch to the Defense Against the Dark Arts public class.

So, the little wizards said in unison——

"Want to hear!"

"Okay." Dracula's mouth curled into a smug smile, "In that case, today I'm going to tell you... what is black magic!"

"Who can tell me what black magic is?"

At this time, the young wizards in the audience didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, and they looked at Dracula on the dueling stage one by one, and the masters raised their hands high.

"Miss Granger, tell me."

Dracula pointed to the disheveled little witch with her hands raised high in the audience.

"Dark Arts, also known as Darkgic, refers primarily to any type of magic used to injure, control, or even kill people and living things. Most people who practice Dark Magic are evil , a wizard who practices black magic is called a dark wizard."

Hermione recited the textbook's definition of dark arts very fluently.

"That's right." Dracula appreciated. "The definition of black magic is indeed that simple. In a broad sense, black magic refers to any magic that may be harmful to other wizards."

"If the category of black magic is defined according to this definition, then our common and controlling magic will be classified as black magic—such as stun spells, petrification spells, binding spells, etc."

"But we also know that these magics with a certain ability to control are exactly what you have to learn when you are in school, so are you called a black wizard just because you have mastered a stun spell or a petrification spell? Yet?"

Dracula looked at Cedric of Hufflepuff, and teased, "Digory, I know your stun spell is quite good, so do you admit that you are a dark wizard?"

There was a mirth of laughter from the Hufflepuff crowd.

Cedric smiled and pushed away his roommate who was teasing him, and said loudly to Dracula: "Professor, I firmly deny that I am a dark wizard!"

He often came to the office to ask Dracula about various topics, and he was very familiar with it now, so Dracula's sudden teasing did not make him feel the slightest embarrassment.

"Actually, it's not just that you don't want to admit that you are a dark wizard, but other wizards in the magic world are also unwilling to admit it." Dracula smiled, and then continued, "So the wizards have a better understanding of black magic. Strict division—"

"I told you in the Duel Club that black magic is divided into Jinx, Hex, and the most vicious curse (Curse)."

"Spells within these categories are capable of actually causing harm to wizards, so there is usually no objection to being classified as black magic."

"As for control magic such as the stun spell, disarm spell, and petrification spell, they were called defensive magic by later wizards. These spells will not cause harm to other people, and at the same time can eliminate the opponent's combat power."

"As a result, most of the control-type magic, under normal circumstances, has been removed from the category of black magic." Dracula said.

The little wizards showed thoughtful expressions.

In fact, this knowledge had already been subtly told by Dracula in the previous Dueling Club gatherings, most of which could be quickly absorbed and understood by the students present.

So this knowledge is just an appetizer, and the main event is yet to come.

"The dueling club has been held so many times, you may have understood how to duel and how to defend against opponent's spells." Dracula chuckled.

"But under the restrictions of the professors, you can only use the defensive magic I just introduced to you in the duel, and you haven't learned enough to deal with black magic knowledge-not enough!" Dracula continued, "Therefore, Today I am going to let you have a taste of how dark wizards use magic."

The little wizards in the audience suddenly became interested.

"What? Professor Dracula is going to show us black magic?" Ron happily guessed, "Hermione, how do you think Professor Dracula used black magic?"

"Eh... it shouldn't be better than a dark wizard?" Hermione whispered, "After all, although Professor Dracula is usually not serious, he is still a decent wizard."

"Ahem..." Harry coughed violently.

"What's the matter with you, Harry?" Ron turned his head to look at his best friend next to him, "Don't you agree with what Hermione said?"

"No, I just swallowed and choked myself," Harry said hastily.

Because Harry and Riddle have maintained a good relationship, they often ask Riddle's assistant to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts, so they also heard some things about Dracula from Riddle.

Harry remembered what Riddle had said to him once—

If Dracula's level of black magic is said to be the second in the wizarding world, then even Voldemort would not dare to say that he is the first...

He glanced at Hermione and Ron, who were still kept in the dark, and smiled helplessly.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Dracula pressed his hands and made the chaotic auditorium gradually quiet. "Before I demonstrate how the black wizard casts spells, I will tell you why I did it—"

"Spells, they have many forms, and their magic power and casting methods are different. In theory, I just need to teach you the spells to break the common spells, that's all."

Dracula didn't say what really made him decide to explain black magic, but explained the little wizards from another angle.

"Accordingly, there are many students here who are not in the sixth grade. You are still young. I shouldn't tell you what illegal black magic looks like, because you are too young to deal with this set of black wizards. method of casting the spell."

"But in my opinion, it doesn't matter what grade you are in, it's always good to know something more, and the sooner you understand the black magic you're dealing with, the better. If you've never seen something before, how can you learn more about it? How about protecting yourself in front of you?"

"Remember, if a dark wizard wants to cast a black magic on you, he will not tell you his plan in advance. A dark wizard will never cast a spell on you frankly, fairly, and politely."

"Therefore, you must be prepared to deal with black magic!"

Dracula's gaze scanned the entire circle of the auditorium, looking deeply at the expressions of every little wizard, hoping to see the importance in their eyes.

"Next, it's the part that you are most concerned about... I will show you the most evil black magic, I hope you will watch it carefully." He said in a deep voice.

"These magics may make you feel uncomfortable, but please don't be afraid, I will not hurt you."

Dracula snapped his fingers.

A handsome young man with black hair suddenly appeared on the dueling ring, standing in front of Dracula.

"Huh? What's going on here?"

Riddle, who was still in the teaching assistant's office just now, panicked at the sudden change in front of him, so he quickly pulled out his wand, and pointed around with a pale face.

The next moment, he found that this was the auditorium he was familiar with, and there were many young wizards around him laughing and admiring his funny performance.

It was only then that Riddle realized that this was the scene of the Dueling Club, and Dracula was watching him with a happy smile on his face.

"Professor Dracula?" Riddle looked at Dracula in confusion, and silently put away his wand. "Is there something wrong with calling me over suddenly? Do you need me to cooperate with you in the duel demonstration?"

"Your cooperation is indeed needed." Dracula smiled evilly, "But it is not a duel demonstration, but you are required to be a model."

Seeing Dracula's evil smile, Riddell suddenly felt bad, turned around and wanted to run away.

However, the next moment, Dracula's voice rang in his ears——

"Out of body (Ierio)."
