Hogwarts: I graduated before the system came

I can personally invite that writer to teach the Defense Against the Dark Arts class with you this year.

I think there would be great communication among you writers...

Of course, we still have to respect your ideas.”

Compete for a job?

Last place elimination?

Wolf culture?

Douglas seemed to hear those distant yet familiar words.

I didn't expect that I would hide from one world to another, from the East to the West, and from the Muggle world to the magical world.

I can still feel the fear coming from it.

Thinking of this, Douglas immediately stood up and said in a heroic and vigorous voice:

"Please rest assured, Headmaster. I believe that I alone can lead the entire Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts team."

After saying this, he quickly signed the appointment letter.

snort!

Sign without regrets.

The moment Douglas just signed.

A voice came from my mind.

[The top student development system has been activated...]

Douglas breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the voice.

The last time the entire system started up, I gave myself a sentence.

[Conditions for starting the academic master development system: Join the school, two years left.]

As a time traveler, he naturally understood the meaning of this voice...

Although he pointed to the sky and roared for two hours at that time.

But there was still a little joy in his heart. After all, a traverser with a system and a traverser without a system were two completely different concepts.

Although it's late, it's better than nothing. The only difference is that it took two and a half years... I said two years, which is a bit annoying.

Of course, as someone who has lived in the wizarding world for ten years, I also know a saying.

“Never trust a thing that thinks, unless you see where its brain lies.”

So at the beginning, Douglas was thinking of using brain occlumency to fight against this system.

If he wasn't of Muggle origin, there wouldn't be much information to look up.

Maybe he will choose to study soul magic.

Finally, looking at the countdown, Douglas chose to compromise.

With a small financial advantage, Douglas entered a university in London.

Although I stayed there for one semester, unfortunately,

Every morning, this sentence still wakes me up in the form of a countdown.

There is no intention to activate it at all.

Until one day, Douglas's Muggle teacher said to him:

"Dear Holmes, I would like to train you to be my experimental assistant..."

Douglas suddenly had an idea and thought there was a possibility.

The system's name means exactly what it says.

Cultivation can be about cultivating yourself or others.

Since I have been out of touch with the Muggle world for so long,

Finally he decided to give Hogwarts an application.

If that doesn't work out, I'll become a primary school teacher.

He felt that his former guardian, Dean George, would not care that he did not have a teaching certificate.

……

Seeing Douglas look relaxed after signing.

Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something, and a smile was hidden behind his half-moon glasses.

Then he picked up his wand and tapped it lightly in the air.

A phoenix summoned by the Patronus Charm spun in the air and then disappeared.

At this time, the phoenix Fox in the corner of the office cried out to Douglas.

Dumbledore smiled and explained:

"Fox is asking you why you didn't bring him a gift.

In fact, ever since that incident, I've banned Fox from trying that weird chili sauce you taught the kitchen.

You know, it seems like it's a little addicted to that stuff.

So, Mr. Douglas, please don't feed it strange food while you're teaching at school!"

At this point, Dumbledore rubbed his brows.

He suddenly regretted admitting Douglas to Hogwarts.

Douglas also recalled the incident that almost caused Fox to be reborn prematurely.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he said, "Don't worry, Professor!"

Who says that thirty years are not enough?

Although Douglas's soul age was already in his forties at that time.

Chapter 5: This system is probably trying to trick me

Shortly after the Patronus Phoenix left the principal's office.

Dumbledore smiled and informed Doglas:

“Douglas, I think you can go find Minerva now.

Otherwise, if we stay too long, she’ll think we’re having hot pot in the office…”

Douglas looked around the office, but didn't see the cauldron used for hot pot at Hogwarts.

Dumbledore knew what Douglas was looking at and shrugged.

He gestured to Douglas with a look that said, "Why can't you see it? Don't you know?"

"You know, Severus comes into my office quite often.

I wouldn't want to challenge the nerves of a Potions Master..."

After saying that, he winked towards the upstairs.

Douglas understood.

When we returned to Professor McGonagall's office again.

The snack Douglas sent on the desk has been opened.

Professor McGonagall said as she looked at the document:

"It tastes good! Thank you, Mr. Holmes!

Albus has just told me, so..."

At this point, Professor McGonagall, who had always been serious, showed a smile.

"Welcome, Professor Holmes!

I think Pomona (Pomona Sprout, Hogwarts Herbology teacher and Head of Hufflepuff House) will be very happy to know this!"

Douglas smiled very politely and said modestly:

"It's still a temporary appointment, and I hope the professor will give me more support and help in the future!"

Professor McGonagall nodded decisively and handed over the parchment in her hand.

"Of course, no problem.

But first, take a look at this schedule.

Because the school currently only has this one vacancy, courses for other professors have already been arranged.

So basically, your current course schedule is fixed.

Of course, if you have anything to do, you can ask Severus to take your place in get out of class.

I think he would be happy to..."

Douglas took the parchment with a smile on his face.

Then his smile froze on his face as if under a petrification spell.

“Professor, the entire schedule?

Are these all my classes?"

Professor McGonagall nodded and raised her eyebrows.

"Of course, oh, I almost forgot,

You've probably only seen the student version of the timetable before.

Professors don’t have it as easy as you think…”

Douglas suddenly regretted not agreeing with Dumbledore and allowing two professors to teach this course together.

Hearing Professor McGonagall's tone, Douglas felt that he was being looked down upon, and immediately said:

“Oh, Merlin’s beard, look at this schedule.

I mean, we have so few classes."

Professor McGonagall???

Looking at Professor McGonagall opposite, she looked as if she suspected she had heard it wrong.

Douglas pointed to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class schedule and said:

"Professor, you see, basically our classes are from 8:30 am to 16:45 pm.

Of course, except for the astronomy class which is at 23:00 in the evening.

We don't make full use of the rest of the time.

I felt this when I was in school. We can definitely add morning reading time from 6:00 to 7:30.

Used to recite textual content such as the History of Magic, etc.

And tonight we can..."

Professor McGonagall listened to Douglas getting more and more excited, and at first she thought there was some truth in his words.

Later she looked at him strangely.

"Mr. Holmes, I don't think, if I remember correctly, that you were so diligent during your school days!

You've been late almost ten times just for Transfiguration."

Douglas said quickly:

"Ahem, Professor, I remember what I explained..."

Professor McGonagall raised her eyebrows.

"Yes, I remember you were always busy in the kitchen, cooking, fertilizing the fruit trees, and, oh, you also grew your own vegetables...

I almost forgot that you cast a spell on a lady from Ravenclaw College because of a few fruits, which resulted in a brawl among the four major houses."
