Professor The Vampire Earl of Hogwarts

"Very good, I suggest that other students also learn from Mr. Potter." Dracula nodded slightly, and praised, "Potter's will is quite firm, and he is not completely controlled by my Imperius Curse."

Harry looked up at Dracula ignorantly, and as Dracula stopped casting the Imperius Curse, he felt the hollow feeling in his mind disappear.

He remembered very clearly what happened just now, and the position of the tailbone became more and more painful.

"Healing as before (Epliskey)." Dracula's voice sounded again.

Harry felt that his shattered bones were healing rapidly under Professor Dracula's healing spell. At first, he felt a little itching, but then both the itching and pain gradually disappeared, and the tailbone returned to its original shape.

He opened his eyes wide, stood up from the ground, and then hurriedly prepared to leave the dueling ring.

"Don't rush away, Potter." Dracula stopped Harry's thoughts of stepping off the dueling ring, and smiled, "Remember how you felt just now, let's do it again. I hope this time you can get rid of the robbing sooner." The control of the soul curse."

Before Harry could react, the feeling of emptiness under the Imperius Curse came to mind again.

do a somersault...

Dracula's voice resurfaced, as if echoing in a very distant place.

Harry already had an experience, so according to the feeling of being controlled by the Imperius Curse last time, he resisted Dracula's instruction to make him do somersaults.

"winter!"

He fell to the floor again.

This time, the nose touched the ground, and the nosebleeds trickled down.

"I haven't seen any obvious improvement in you." Dracula said in a cold tone after healed Harry's nose casually.

"Come again!"

……

Harry took the test seven times in a row, basically each time he made some progress compared to the previous one, and the time he was controlled was gradually shortened.

It wasn't until Harry was free from the Imperius Curse that Dracula finally allowed him to leave the arena.

After leaving the dueling ring, Harry felt nothing but soreness.

Although every time he fell to the ground, Dracula would use a healing spell to heal Harry's injuries.But whether it is muscle strain or mental exhaustion, neither healing spells can directly heal them.

So as soon as Harry got off the dueling ring, he sat down on the ground next to Ron and Hermione, grinning and rubbing his sore muscles all over his body, relaxing his brain that had been restless for a long time.

The little wizards around came to Harry one by one, wanting to ask him how to break free from the control of the Imperius Curse.

"Don't rush to discuss it yet." Dracula's voice sounded from the dueling platform again, "There are three Unforgivable Curses in total, and we've just explained one."

The little wizards in the audience raised their heads in surprise and looked at Dracula.

The performance of the Imperius Curse just now was really wonderful.Whether it's Riddle's handsome hip-hop dance, Fred and George's spicy-eyed dance, or Harry's excellent performance in breaking free from the Imperius Curse, all of them have attracted the attention of little wizards that have never been before.

Now that the explanation of the Imperius Curse is over, they almost think that get out of class is over!

"There is not much time, let's speed up." Dracula glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the auditorium, and then explained, "Who knows, besides the Imperius Curse, the other two Unforgivable Curses are what?"

The top students in the audience, such as Percy, Cedric, and Hermione, raised their hands high.

Dracula was about to follow the usual practice and pick a top student to answer the question.

However, just as he was about to call Percy from Gryffindor, he suddenly saw a submissive little wizard in the Gryffindor team weakly raising his hand.

"Neville Longbottom?"

Dracula was a little surprised.

Neville Longbottom, a little wizard, had a very low presence, basically he never raised his hand in Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Not only that, but Dracula also heard that Defense Against the Dark Arts was one of his relatively good performances. It seemed that in Snape's Potions class, he would always make the wrong potions. There will be some strange accidents in class.

Dracula looked at Neville and found that his expression was a little blank, as if he was also surprised by his bold move today.

"Mr. Longbottom, tell me about it." Dracula said, "Which Unforgivable Curse do you know?"

"I know there is a... Cruciatus Curse." Neville said in a soft but clear voice.

Dracula gave Neville a deep look, then nodded slightly.

"That's right, five points for Gryffindor," he said.

"The Cruciatus Curse, also known as the Torture Curse, is a very representative form of black magic and one of the three Unforgivable Curses."

In view of the lack of time, Dracula did not ask anyone to answer the question this time, "When a curse is successfully cast on a human being or a creature, the curse will cause intense and unbearable physical pain to the victim. If the victim suffers for a long time A curse that may cause insanity."

When he said this, Dracula frowned slightly.

He vaguely saw that Neville's face turned pale, and he didn't know the specific reason.

"The Cruciatus Curse was invented in the early Middle Ages. For a while, this curse that would not kill people was quite popular. It was not until the early 18th century that it was completely recognized as black magic. Three Unforgivable Curses."

Dracula went on to explain, "Using any of the three Unforgivable Curses on fellow human beings will result in a life sentence in Azkaban without the possibility of parole!"

When talking about the punishment of using the Unforgivable Curse, Dracula's voice became a little cold, making the young wizards in the audience shiver.

"Of course, I personally think that the Cruciatus Curse is the most useless of the three Unforgivable Curses." Dracula suddenly changed his subject, and his tone became lighter, "The only effect of this curse is to torture people. Basically only useful in torture work."

"In my opinion, using the Cruciatus Curse for interrogation is far less efficient than dropping three drops of Veritaserum in the prisoner's mouth... What? There are people who don't even know what Veritaserum is? Go ask Sneaker after class. Professor Pu, potions are out of my control."

"The reason why I say the Cruciatus Curse is useless is that under the Cruciatus Curse, the person being interrogated is likely to make a false confession in order to alleviate the pain they endured under the spell, whether or not they really grasp the knowledge the interrogator is seeking. and extracted information."

"In addition, under the torture of the Cruciatus Curse, the person being interrogated cannot reveal the information protected by secret magic such as the Unbreakable Curse and the Fidelity Curse, because under the influence of the Cruciatus Curse, what the wizards say is not voluntary. "

Dracula shrugged, his disdainful expression fully expressing how much he despised the spell.

"Of course, a Dark wizard may choose to attack with the Cruciatus Curse during a duel, causing great pain to their opponent. As long as they keep the curse in effect, their opponent cannot fight back."

"Compared to its application in duels, a more common usage is that heinous dark wizards use the Cruciatus Curse to satisfy their desire to torture and torture others."

"To cast this curse successfully, it is not enough to say the incantation. The wizard who uses this curse must have a strong, desperate desire for the victim's pain, and take great pleasure in the victim's pain."

"Therefore, this curse is in a sense the cruelest and most perverted of the three Unforgivable Curses."

"Next, I'll show you how a dark wizard casts the Cruciatus Curse."

As he said that, Dracula suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, and looked at Riddle who was still standing on the dueling platform with malicious intent.

"Assistant Riddle, come cooperate with me?"

Seeing Dracula's expression, Riddle's face was instantly pale with fright.

"Professor Dracula, don't be impulsive!" He hurriedly dissuaded, "If it was someone else's Cruciatus Curse, I might still be able to withstand it, but if it was cast by you, I would not be able to bear it for decades ah!"

"Don't underestimate yourself, Riddle." Dracula laughed teasingly, "Besides, there are so many pure students present, if I were to use the Cruciatus Curse on an innocent person, I still wouldn't let it go! So Why don't you show me directly."

"No... I'm innocent too!" Riddle argued dumbfoundingly, "It's clearly not me who did all the evil, but that...that person, you can't confuse us!"

"What's the difference?" Dracula chuckled.Riddle's next words caught in his throat.

He finally understood that Dracula still had some concerns about the fact that he concealed the secrets of the Forbidden Forest, and using the Imperius Curse to control Riddle to dance could not completely calm his emotions.

The narrow-minded Professor Dracula really lives up to his reputation!

"What, Professor Dracula...Actually, you can use other creatures to demonstrate the Cruciatus Curse." Riddle wiped the slightly wet sweat on his forehead and whispered, "I called Dobby over and asked him to find the Cruciatus Curse." A little animal that is not worthy of death comes over."

With a wave of his wand, he called softly:

"More than?"

The house elf Dobby, who had been accepted by Dracula as his assistant, appeared on the dueling stage with a "snap".

"It's an honor to serve you, Professor Dracula, and Riddle's assistant." Dobby bowed to Dracula and Riddle in a delicate dress.

As early as more than a month before the Christmas holiday, Dracula felt a little bored about life at Hogwarts, so he ordered Dobby to do one thing——

Dracula asked Dobby to tell Riddle to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts on his behalf.During the substitute class, Riddle can ask Dobby for appropriate help when needed.

During the period when Dracula did not come back, Dobby was still cleaning the office for Dracula every day, and at the same time gradually became familiar with Riddle.

That's why Riddle knew how to summon Dobby.

"Dobby, didn't you often go to the kitchen to help out a while ago?" Riddle asked in a low voice, "Are those mice that hide in the sewer and occasionally come up to steal the ingredients still alive?"

"Those bad mice are still alive," Dobby said angrily, staring at his big eyes as big as tennis balls. "These bad mice stole the wizard's food. They should have been punished immediately!"

"But there's not enough rat poison at Hogwarts, and the head elf chef is just going to buy some more today, so we haven't had time to get rid of all the rats yet."

"Great!" Riddle heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Dracula, "Professor Dracula, those rats in the kitchen sewer are all pests that steal food from Hogwarts, you shouldn't let them go." Not open?"

Dracula raised his eyebrows and looked at Riddle, who tried his best not to experience the Cruciatus Curse, and shook his head with a smile after all.

"In that case, let's grab a mouse and bring it here." He chuckled lightly, "It just so happens that if you use animals as a demonstration, the psychological shadow on the little wizards may be less."

Dobby, being a house-elf of extraordinary ability, very quickly caught a mouse from the kitchen drain and brought it over.

Because he knew Dracula very well, after catching the mouse, he cleaned the mouse with a cleaning spell to prevent Dracula from feeling disgusted with it.

"Excuse me, Dobby." Dracula looked at the clean mouse that Dobby brought over, and nodded with satisfaction, "Need to zoom in a bit, or the little wizards in the back row might not be able to see clearly."

Without waiting for Dracula to cast the spell, Riddle used the expansion spell on the mouse in a doglike manner, and used the levitation spell to suspend it in the air so that all the little wizards could clearly observe the mouse .

The mouse swelled up and was now bigger than a normal-sized cat lizi.

Under the expectant, puzzled, or frightened eyes of the little wizards, Dracula took two steps forward and came to the side of the big mouse.

He raised his wand, pointed at the mouse, and said softly:

"Crucio."

In an instant, the mouse's eyes widened suddenly, and its limbs kicked around frantically.It turned over, and at the same time, its body twitched violently, shaking from side to side.

"Squeaky-"

The mouse squeaked and screamed desperately.The gray and white hair all over his body trembled, and the muscles all over his body twitched more and more violently——

"Professor, stop!" Hermione from the audience suddenly shouted.

Dracula turned to look at Hermione.

She didn't look at Dracula in the stands, or at the rats as demonstration objects, but at Neville.

Dracula frowned, and saw Neville's hands tightly clutching the corners of his clothes, his knuckles were white, his eyes were wide open, and his eyes were full of fear.

"How are you, Mr. Longbottom?" He withdrew his wand, and Cruciatus stopped.

The mouse fell to the ground and stopped screaming, but its limbs and body still twitched from time to time.

Neville stared blankly at the mice on the stage, his face pale.

"Mr. Longbottom, if the Cruciatus Curse has brought you some bad memories, then I hope you can face up to this curse." Dracula squatted down on the edge of the dueling platform, looking at Neville gently.

"A person should not be immersed in the bleak past, but should face the pain he has experienced."

"You are a Gryffindor, Mr. Longbottom. What Gryffindors lack most is courage. Don't let those setbacks on the road of life blind your eyes and waste your integrity."

"Think about it when you go back, I hope you will be different in the next class."

Dracula took a deep look at Neville, stood up, and walked to the mouse that was still twitching from time to time.

"There is no specific way to resist the Cruciatus Curse. You can only rely on your superior tolerance for pain and your fearless spirit to resist the torture and complete the counterattack in pain." He said softly.

"Of course, if possible, I still advise you not to be hit by the Cruciatus Curse, because there are very few people who can resist this kind of pain."

After explaining the relevant knowledge of the Cruciatus Curse, Dracula's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Next, I will tell you about the last and most powerful of the three Unforgivable Curses..." He gently raised his wand, pointing at the trembling mouse.

The mouse seemed to sense the imminent doom, enduring the muscles that were still unable to exert strength and excruciating pain, and struggled desperately to get up, trying to avoid the direction pointed by Dracula's wand.

But the next moment, that evil spell blurted out——

"Avada Kedavra."

A dazzling green light pierced people's eyes, and at the same time there was a messy sound whistling, as if an invisible giant was flying through the air——

At the same time, the mouse fell down, lying on its back on the dueling platform, and its body showed no signs of twitching.

It didn't have any scars on its body, but it was undoubtedly dead...

Several little wizards watched this scene in horror, and tried their best to hold back the screams they wanted to make.

Among the few little wizards who refrained from yelling, Harry was included, and a picture appeared in his eyes——

It was a dazzling green light, a beautiful woman stood in front of him, fell to the ground after being shot by the green light, and then there was an even more dazzling green light...

"The Killing Curse is also called the Death Curse. There is no cure, no defensive magic can stop it, and no one can survive after being hit by the Killing Curse..." Dracula said.

Afterwards, he paused, and suddenly looked at Harry, "So far, the Killing Curse has only happened to one person as an exception."

All eyes turned to look at Harry. Harry stared blankly at Professor Dracula on the stage, feeling that he could understand Neville's mood just now.

"Focus on me, watch me!" Dracula yelled, relieving Harry a little of the pressure, "You don't need to care about how Harry Potter escaped under the death curse, and don't even think about it." It means that I, too, can survive the Killing Curse."

"In the face of the killing curse, you will not have any resistance!" Dracula said coldly, "so I will teach you some tricks, maybe you can survive the black wizard's killing curse a little s method."

The next moment, under the eyes of the young wizards, he suddenly turned to look at Riddle.

"Riddle, use the Killing Curse on me!"
