Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

Looking at the pendant of the golden hourglass in his hand, Lorne didn't know where to start for a while.

The wand in his hand lightly clicked on the table, making a crisp sound.

But from the outside, this hourglass does not have any runes engraved on it, which shows that it is not like an alchemy item, and it is very easy to see the essence of it.

It looks like it's a bit difficult to research...

With that in mind, Lorne opened the kaleidoscope writing wheel.

The scarlet scythe's eyes scrutinized the time-turner.

There were no magic fluctuations in everything around, but there were small traces of magic in that hourglass, and if you didn't look closely at it with a kaleidoscope, you wouldn't be able to see it at all.

It's this hourglass...

Lorne pondered.

This is not a simple alchemy prop, and if you want to study it, it is naturally very difficult.

Moreover, coupled with the fact that the time turner only has the one in front of him, it is naturally impossible for him to dismantle it for research.

"It's really interesting technology. "

Lorne looked at the hourglass in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

Being able to bury all the mysteries of time in this small hourglass, it seems that there is also a force to be reckoned with in the Ministry of Magic.

I'd like to have time for Lockhart to inquire about the hourglass.

But if you do your own research, I'm afraid it will take more time than you think.

With that in mind, Lorne put the pendant away.

When he turned around, he was suddenly stunned.

I saw that Miss Hermione, who was still sitting on the bed reading a book, had fallen asleep on the book at this time, and the sound of steady breathing was very small.

"What time is it?"

He subconsciously glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.

Before I knew it, the time had come to about twelve o'clock in the evening.

It's so late?

Did he just have that much time to study?

Lorne thought to himself, but he picked Hermione up and placed her on the inside of the bed.

The biography of Lockhart was on the table.

The soft moonlight was sprinkled, Miss Granger's long eyelashes trembled, and her sleeping face looked very lovely.

"Good night—"

.........

Early in the morning of the second day.

After arriving at the auditorium early, Lorne glanced at the class schedule in his hand.

There's a Defence Against the Dark Arts class this morning.

The locations recorded above are still the same as last semester, and there have been no changes.

"I wonder what Professor Lupin will teach us?"

Ron remembered Lupin, who had played Werewolf Kill with them last night, and couldn't help but look forward to it.

"As long as it's not like Lockhart!"

Hermione didn't have a lot of requirements, as long as she could learn in Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Hearing this, Harry nodded approvingly.

After breakfast, Lorne arrived at the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom on time.

It may be that I came a little late, so there are already a lot of little wizards inside.

Since this class is a major, Gryffindor and Slytherin are taken together, not like electives.

At nine o'clock, class begins.

Professor Lupin's figure also pushed open the door of the classroom on time, and with a soft creak, the eyes of all the little wizards were drawn to it.

"Good morning, everyone, I'm your Defence Against the Dark Arts professor this semester. "

Professor Lupin looked at the young wizards with a smile on his face.

His robes and gowns, although somewhat shabby, had a very different temperament.

"Now I think you should put the books away, and let's practice the first lesson!"

As the words fell, the eyes of many little wizards lit up instantly.

You must know that last year, Lockhart held a book almost all day long, and read it there every day, even if there were some practical classes, but the magic taught in practical classes was not practical, or it was very common.

I wonder what the hands-on class will be like with this new professor?

Following Lupin to the interior of the classroom, many people saw a huge cabinet in the corner, carved with various patterns, looking a little old.

And this cabinet will shake violently from time to time, as if there is something very dangerous inside.

Many young wizards were startled by the messy cabinet.

"Professor, are we going to deal with the Cornish elves?"

A small wizard in the crowd shouted.

"Cornwall elves, no, why are we dealing with them?" said Lupin, a little confused.

"Those elves are very naughty and mischievous, but they're not dangerous, and that's not what we're going to teach in Defense Against the Dark Arts class!"

Although he didn't understand why he was dealing with the group of elves, he explained.

"Last semester Lockhart taught us how to deal with those troublemakers. Harry remembered what had happened last year, and said a little speechlessly, "And in the end he failed, locked us all in the house, and ran away on his own." "

And this kind of thing?

Lupin's eyes widened, and he thought in disbelief.

Gilderoy Lockhart, he knew this ex, or no one in the wizarding world who didn't know about him.

And I recently heard that Lockhart has become the captain of the Auror organization, so it shouldn't be that he can't even deal with a group of elves, right?

"Ahem... Well, we're not dealing with mischievous elves in this lesson. "

Professor Lupin calmed his mixed emotions for a moment, then reached out and pointed to the cabinet behind him.

"The creature we're dealing with today is a magical creature called the Boggart. "

"I know Boggart..."

Hermione looked at Lupin, who was explaining to them in front of her, and whispered in Lorne's ear.

"They're a shapeshifting magical creature that feeds on the fear of humans to survive, and it can see through your heart and become what you fear the most!"

Miss Hermione already has a pretty good grasp of magical beasts.

But—

"That's right, Miss Granger!"

As the voice sounded, Hermione also realized that she didn't know when Professor Lupin had stopped explaining.

Lupin looked at Hermione, who was quickly covering her mouth, with a smile, and complimented.

"For your knowledge, Gryffindor Plus ten!"

"Then it's up to you to deal with it now—Boggart's box!"
