Chapter 354 Leave my classroom

The atmosphere in the classroom gradually became tense, and Professor McGonagall stared at the smiling Grindelwald. Hogwarts can teach students spells and methods to resist dark magic, but it cannot teach them to distinguish between good and evil.

As Grindelwald said, the most dangerous thing in the world is the human heart. If magic alone could distinguish between good and evil, then this world would be too simple. However, for children who are learning, such teaching will cause them to lose their innocence.

Grindelwald looked at McGonagall with a smile, and his words were like cold swords: "Can you please leave my classroom?"

"Wow..." A low exclamation came from the classroom. The students whispered to each other and their eyes hurriedly moved between the two professors.

No one expected that the substitute teacher of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class would be so domineering that he would have a conflict with Dean McGonagall in the first class. And judging from the confrontation between the two, Professor McGonagall seemed to be wary of Green.

Harry and Ron looked at each other with what could be described as a cheerful smile on their faces. In the past few days, they have been criticized frequently by Dean McGonagall. Even though they know this is for their own good, the rebellious psychology of adolescence still makes them feel uncomfortable. Now seeing their dean being defeated, they couldn't help but feel an indescribable pleasure.

Although Grindelwald's attitude was firm, he also left some room: "Minerva, if you have any questions about my teaching, you can talk about it after class."

The entire classroom seemed to be enveloped in the tension and anticipation of this moment, and everyone was looking forward to what might happen next.

"I will." Professor McGonagall was already prepared, and she calmly took out a magic projector. Use the Sticking Charm to secure it to the ceiling.

"Excellent magic props." Grindelwald said with a smile. "If such a smart wizard had invented it back then, maybe the world would have been a different story."

"Hmph!" Professor McGonagall certainly heard Grindelwald's sarcasm. She stepped heavily and turned to leave. She looked back at him, her eyes as sharp as a knife, obviously warning Grindelwald not to act recklessly.

"Okay." Grindelwald clapped his hands indifferently and focused the student's attention back on himself.

"The course I am temporarily taking will not teach you magic skills at this stage, but will teach you to think about the nature of magic and wizards." He glanced at the projector confidently, without any worries about the lecture content being recorded. .

He then asked: "Can anyone answer the question just now?" Grindelwald's face was filled with an encouraging smile, completely immersed in the joy of being a professor.

In the classroom, dozens of pairs of eyes full of curiosity and expectation stared at him. This gave him a deeper understanding of Dumbledore and why he chose to stay at Hogwarts as Headmaster. Even though Qilin chose him back then, he still refused to become the leader of the magic world and returned to the office to knit sweaters.

"Knit a sweater!" Grindelwald felt tired every time he thought of Dumbledore's boring leisure activities. Albus, who originally pursued great ideals, now looks like a retired grandfather.

He turned his attention to the students in the audience, including Harry, Malfoy, Hermione and others. He realized that these children were the easiest blank slate to paint on. As for Rogge, the boy who came out of Azkaban, he has already been brewing his own thoughts in the dark.

Hermione raised her hand without hesitation. "Professor, me!" Her voice was full of confidence.

"Of course, Hermione." Grindelwald nodded and smiled and said, "As a smart wizard from the Muggle world, I believe your answer will be unique."

Although his words mentioned Hermione's origin, his voice was gentle and his eyes were full of trust, which made Hermione both happy and a little nervous.

"Professor Green..." Hermione coughed lightly and said emotionally: "If a Muggle drove a car back to the Middle Ages, he would be regarded as an alien by the lords and nobles and arrested. The missionaries would evaluate his beliefs, And the wizard secretly tests his mastery of magic."

Seeing that Professor Green was satisfied with her performance, she continued: "In the end, that Muggle will most likely be burned at the stake."

"Very good." Grindelwald nodded and encouraged her to continue explaining: "Then, can you explain the reason more specifically?"

Hermione nodded and said: "First of all, he was a wanderer without identity, which was very suspicious in the medieval society at that time. Secondly, he drove a strange iron shell, which would have been regarded as Magic or some weird machinery. Or maybe he spoke a different language, which at the time might have been considered contact with pagans, and he was something to be feared."

She didn't say the word "monster" in the end because Hermione couldn't internally equate Muggles with the word.

"I heard a few key things." Grindelwald acknowledged Hermione's answer and motioned for her to sit down: "Five points for Gryffindor."

He smiled and encouraged other students: "You have to be more active. Reasons given by others will not get bonus points. For example, Hermione has already mentioned identity, language, and beliefs. If there were no regulations, I would give her Each point is worth 5 college points.”

Hearing Professor Green's generosity, everyone raised their hands excitedly to answer.

"I have a new perspective!"

"Professor, me!"

"I don't agree with Hermione!"

In an instant, the whole class came alive. Even students who did not like to raise their hands to answer in the past raised their hands in anticipation and waited to be called upon.

"Then, let's do it one by one." A bright smile spread across Grindelwald's face. He wanted to guide these young minds to learn to think independently.

"Whether it's a Muggle or a wizard, only the conclusion you draw is the golden rule. As a person, the hardest thing to overturn is yourself." Grindelwald said secretly in his heart.

"Professor, I think the Muggles killed him out of ignorance." A student boldly put forward his own point of view.

"Very good, five points for Slytherin."

"I think it's because the local lords are too cruel."

"No, no, maybe the Muggle driving the car killed someone or stole something."

"Don't be misled by Hermione. What if he can survive?"

With Grindelwald's encouragement, everyone spoke one after another, and most people actively participated in the discussion. He gave extra points and praise to every student who came up with new ideas, especially Harry and Ron, who shared their opinions confidently and fluently based on their own personal experiences. After all, two of them had actually ridden in cars, and one had driven illegally.

There are four scoring hourglasses at the gate of the castle. As the students speak, the scores rise slowly. The passing wizards covered their mouths in surprise, and some even thought the scorer was broken.

"Thank you very much for your speech, but there is a relatively silent classmate in the classroom." As Grindelwald finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Rogge.

He was always so silent. Even though he knew the answers to the questions raised by the professors, he still sat indifferently. Rogge would not become active unless Professor Snape issued an order.

Ron, who was encouraged to the point of bursting with self-confidence, couldn't help but want to ridicule a few words. However, the faint pain from various parts of his body reminded him that it was better not to provoke the dark wizard.

"Roger, do you think that Muggle will die?" Grindelwald asked.

"Of course." Rogge stood up and replied, "He must die, even if he is the son of God."

"What's your reason?"

"His car is a wealth that lords and bishops have never seen, but he himself is unarmed; his head is filled with ideas that are not suitable for that time and place, threatening the security of the territory. He will treat peasant women and villagers as country bumpkins, even if he is originally Tramp." Rogge already understood the meaning of this lesson, and Grindelwald wanted to tell everyone through this example: Stupid Muggles tend to push things they don't understand to the opposite side, and then burn them with fire.

"I can't find a reason for him to live." Rogge asserted bluntly.
