Harry hadn't expected Sean to cover their Defense Against the Dark Arts class - I heard he was a graduate of Durmstrang!He himself probably thought it was a wonderful experience to be a substitute teacher, and he said to them in his self-introduction during the class: "I didn't expect that Principal Dumbledore would invite me to be your substitute teacher for this school year. This is an incredible decision. , when I received this invitation, I was honored and terrified. I am not sure if I can be a good professor at Hogwarts, but now that I am here, I will do my best for You impart knowledge, answer questions, and find out what we can do when we face black magic, I think I have some experience in this regard."

He is too self-effacing. They all think the class experience of this class is very good. If there is a comparison, perhaps only Professor Eli Smith's Situation and Policy class is more attractive-they are already in their class. In the policy class, I met Millicent Barnold, the former Minister of Magic, Amelia Burns, Director of the Department of Law Enforcement, Mafalda Hopkirk, Director of the Office of the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic, Arthur Weasley, the director of the Melon Items Office, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet, the judge of the Wizengamot Wizarding Court, and many other prominent figures are all people that students like them can never expect to see. The Slytherins at the top all became very quiet and docile in class, which was perhaps the most docile they had in school, and no one dared to do anything wrong in front of Professor Smith.

But what the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor brought them was another kind of charm that came from the course itself.Unlike the previous Professor Quirrell, Professor Jonathan has a more peaceful and neutral attitude towards black magic. He led them to understand and understand black magic and related magical creatures more objectively, and gave them the skills to deal with it.

They once learned the power and cruelty of black magic from Professor Quirrell, and deeply understood how terrifying that mysterious man who once flourished was.Facing their looming fear, Professor Jonathan said to them: "Yes, black art is of course terrible. But no power can match a strong enough heart. The mysterious man is proficient in black art, but he still failed in the end Now, he was not lost to a more powerful force, but to all those who love peace and fight against discrimination, and to the unity that they united to fight together. Hogwarts will teach you courage and hope, justice Strength, the age when black magic is prevalent is terrible, so we have to learn to resist and fight back, and we have to break through the thick clouds of haze with our own hands and bring the dawn of hope."

In short, when get out of class was over, they were all unsatisfied, and this unsatisfactory feeling became more profound when they discovered that Professor Jonathan had not left much homework.Harry and Ron Hermione stayed at the end. After packing up his things, Professor Sean found that they were still there, and gave them a smile familiar to Harry.

He and Uncle Eli were gentle, but not in the same way.Uncle Eli feels more like a spring breeze, and his calmness and decisiveness are also neat and clear. Professor Jonathan's gentleness is even more calm. Harry has never seen him lose his temper or show strong emotions to anyone, and he will not fight with anyone. Entrusting Xu Snake, he thinks that he is actually a little low-key arrogant.

"Uncle Sean!" Harry and Ron greeted him together. Hermione showed a little reservedness when they met for the first time, but after Professor Sean greeted her and called her name accurately, she It soon became equally enthusiastic.

"I didn't expect you to be the substitute teacher!" Harry said happily. "We've been wondering who will be teaching us for the rest of the year, but I didn't expect it to be you!"

"Let's not talk about you, in fact, I didn't think of it either." Regulus replied, sighing with a smile, "My situation is a bit special, and Principal Dumbledore's appointment of me can be said to be very unusual, no wonder It will take a long time for the Ministry of Magic. I didn't expect to come to Hogwarts in such a capacity one day, this will definitely be a very precious memory for me, and I will always remember this unforgettable year."

He was talking about his failure to graduate from Hogwarts because he was "disappeared" due to his apparent identity. Regulus Black once thought that teaching at Hogwarts would be a good career choice, but When hiding this identity, almost everything that this identity once possessed was buried. Together with this not-so-ideal ideal, he never thought that one day it would be realized in this way.

The three children couldn't understand the deep meaning behind his emotion, but the transmission of emotions sometimes didn't require too many words. They all laughed, and naturally cheered him up because of his happiness.

They left the classroom together and saw Isaac and Dorothy waiting at the door—Isaac was leaning against the wall, reading a book with a calm expression, while Dorothy pouted, obviously, She waited a little anxiously.

"You are too slow!" she complained. "If you have something to say, let's talk! Add me and Isaac!"

"We just said a word or two." Harry said to her impatiently, "Uncle Sean said he was very happy to come to Hogwarts to teach, and we are very happy to be taught by him! He taught very well! You have already Have you taken his class yet?"

"Not yet, you are the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class at school this week." Isaac closed the book and said.On the other side, Dorothy rubbed her hands expectantly, and squeezed her way to Regulus (moving Ron a little) with ease, and took his arm.

"I suppose so too!" she said cheerfully, turning up her face with a smirk. "You're sure to be all right, aren't you, Godfather?"

"Actually, I'm terribly nervous." Regulus shrugged and said honestly.His goddaughter didn't seem to believe it, and his godson seemed to think that it was understandable to be nervous in the first class, but with his strength, there was actually no need to be nervous.

Regulus couldn't explain to them why he valued this part-time job so much, so he just smiled and left the classroom together. Regulus told the children, "The current Defense Against the Dark Arts office is temporarily closed. I am using it, if you are free, you can find me there, I will set up the door control, and you can come in and out as you like."

"The magic that my dad improved?" Isaac asked with interest, "The one that can recognize people's entry and exit?"

"Yes, it's a very practical application. Detecting magic has a very long history, but your father is the first person to apply it so conveniently. He said that this branch can almost be listed separately as punching magic." Lei Gules said, then rubbed his chin in thought, "But he finally gave up this nickname, saying that it sounds a little too scary... But anyway, for familiar people who often come to the room, this Magic is very convenient, allowing people to come and go without restriction. The offices of the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic have already installed this kind of detection magic, and the offices of Hogwarts are probably half installed-some professors think it is unnecessary , I heard that Professor Trelawney thinks that someone can visit casually will affect her third eye, and Professor Binns thinks it is unnecessary, since he must be in the office if he is not in class anyway."

This is true.The children listened to the gossip about the professors, you poked me and I poked you, eyebrows and lawsuits flew around, and they felt a rare sense of relaxation and comfort.

"Are you living in the castle, Uncle Sean? Until we're all done for the school year?" Harry pressed him.Regulus shook his head and sighed with a slightly helpless tone.

"Of course not. Hogwarts is just a part-time job. I will go back to the Order of the Phoenix to handle my work after class. Although the number of jobs there has decreased accordingly, if I don't handle it, I will spend more next year. The efficiency is too low. I will leave after the class, and I will find time to approve your homework after finishing the work there. I am grateful that Hogwarts can go to the four houses together now. It's a regular big class, otherwise I won't be able to spare any time."

"The effect of teaching like this now is also very good!" Hermione said immediately, her tone was very sincere, and it could be seen that she thought so, "We can take classes together with students from other colleges in the grade, check each other's learning progress, and there is a strong atmosphere of competition , this is a kind of progress!"

"There's a lot of competition, isn't it?" Ron asked Harry from the sidelines. "I thought it was just now that everyone realized how terrible Gryffindor's know-it-all was. Thirty minutes later, they're probably suspecting that Hermione is an automatic answering machine or something..."

Harry and Dorothy both laughed, and Hermione gave Ron an elbow and laughed too.

"Apart from working in the Order of the Phoenix, will you spend the night here, Godfather?" Isaac asked him. "If so, maybe I can ask you questions at night? Some of the questions I want to study are not very convenient." Discuss with Professor Flitwick."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dorothy glanced at him. She paused silently, hesitated, and finally asked: "What topics can't I discuss with Professor Flitwick, Isaac? Can I talk to my father?" You can call him."

"It's hard to say clearly on the phone." Isaac said, his expression and tone were very normal, and the three children in the first grade didn't think there was anything wrong.Dorothy pursed her lips, and their godfather noticed it, and glanced at them both.

"I don't usually live in Hogwarts." He said, "A new member of the family has recently moved in. Sirius and him are getting along, and I'm a little worried about the two of them."

"New member?" Harry asked in surprise, "What new member, I didn't hear Sirius say!"

"Just moved in recently?" Ron asked suspiciously, and then reacted first, "You mean Black's house elf? We saw Mrs. Black's obituary in the newspaper before. I remember my mother said that there was a house elf in their house." .”

"His name is Kreacher." Regulus said to them, "He is a loyal elf, and the atmosphere between Sirius and him is a bit awkward... Kreacher has always misunderstood Sirius about one thing, although the misunderstanding It's been lifted, but the impressions and attitudes accumulated over the years are difficult to change in a short time, both he and Sirius. I think the two of them have somewhat different personalities, but both of them are trying to get along awkwardly... After all We will live together forever in the future, I think both of them need some time, I am a little worried."

"So your house will be more lively in the future?" Harry asked happily. "Can I play during the Christmas holidays? Maybe it's not Christmas day, when you can come to our house for dinner-I mean, my aunt Uncle’s house, my dad doesn’t seem to be able to come back this Christmas, if he could come back, he would have sent an owl to deliver letters to me.”

The magic phone is already very popular in the UK, but it is still not so easy to find anywhere else, which is also a helpless thing.Uncle Sean nodded, and readily agreed to him: "Of course, Harry, you can invite your friends to come here, if they want, Christmas or other holidays are fine, we are always welcome."

"Maybe not Christmas, but summer vacation!" Hermione said happily, happy for the invitation.

Dorothy held her godfather's arm intimately, and came to the auditorium with everyone in a good mood.The godfather was going to eat at the staff table, and Dorothy let go of his arm, and suddenly heard him whispering to herself, "Come to my office tonight and bring Isaac with you."
