Chapter 211 New official takes office, arrangements for professors

In any case, Adam successfully became the principal of Hogwarts.

Professor McGonagall learned the shocking news after returning from St. Mungo's and hurried to the principal's office, but Professor Dumbledore had already gone to work, and Adam was the only one to receive her.

"...That's it."

After repeating the story of his becoming the principal again, Adam looked at Professor McGonagall who was still in a daze and said:

"Professor McGonagall, please hide the principal's identity information from this year's freshman admission notice... In addition, I will also teach you how to speak at the dinner and other matters."

Adam had already mentioned the reasons why it was not convenient for him to come forward now and let everyone know that he was the new principal, so Professor McGonagall agreed one by one.

"In addition, please send these two letters to Fred and George as Hogwarts owls. I think their previous decision to be expelled was unreasonable. Now they can come back and continue their unfinished studies." ”

Knowing that Fred and George could come back to complete their studies, Professor McGonagall received two letters in surprise:

"They will be happy!"

Well...it's hard to say this.

Adam smiled and said nothing.

"So, what the Ministry of Magic announced before..."

"All void."

Adam opened his hand:

"There is no Ministry of Magic, there is no Board of Governors, Voldemort and his minions have just destroyed the Department of Mysteries, and the Ministry of Magic is no longer able to protect everyone's safety."

"During this special period, Hogwarts has entered full autonomy. I will be responsible for all needs for the operation of Hogwarts, and I will deal with all enemies who invade Hogwarts."

"I understand, then I'll...oh, right."

Professor McGonagall suddenly remembered something:

"Hagrid is back, and the Care of Magical Creatures class can proceed normally next semester. So, should Professor Grapelan continue to stay? In addition, there are candidates for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class next semester... and the Divination class. Professor’s question.”

Although Professor McGonagall believed that divination was pure nonsense, Professor Trelawney's situation still made her sympathize.

"Let Professor Grapeland go back and convey my gratitude for me."

This witch had been teaching the Care of Magical Creatures class at Hogwarts on and off because of Professor Dumbledore's invitation over the past two years, which was really hard work.

"In addition, inform Hagrid that he will no longer be the professor of the Care of Magical Creatures class next semester. I will invite someone to teach this class."

Looking at Professor McGonagall's puzzled expression, Adam said helplessly:

"I recognize Hagrid's heartfelt love for magical animals, but his inability to clearly recognize the differences between his students and him means that he is probably not a suitable person to be a professor."

After finishing the things left by Professor Scamander, Hagrid had already started to let the students raise dangerous creatures such as snails and thestrals. Adam did not dare to think about what magical animals Hagrid would bring with him in the future. Go to Care of Magical Creatures class.

As for the candidate for the professor of Care of Magical Creatures... Adam went to America with Professor Scamander before and got to know many researchers in this field, such as the fellow in Hawaii.

As Professor Scamander said, with the development of human navigation technology, the living space for magical animals like sea monsters and sea monsters has become less and less, and it has become increasingly difficult for researchers in this field to achieve results.

As a young researcher who has just entered this industry, the other party has a strong intention to change his career to study other magical animals.

It just so happens that there are quite a lot of magical animals here at Hogwarts.

Especially with Adam around.

After hearing Adam's reasons, Professor McGonagall had to admit that Adam was right.

Hagrid may be a lover of magical creatures, but he's not a good Care of Magical Creatures professor.

"Professor Trelawney and Professor Firenze... let each of them be responsible for some students. Professor Trelawney is responsible for the students in the third to fifth grades, and Professor Firenze is responsible for the students in the sixth and seventh grades."

Adam said after thinking about it.

Although Professor Trelawney is usually crazy and likes to predict unknown things to people, she is indeed a bit real and cannot be let out, and the other party also likes life in Hogwarts.

Professor Firenze has been expelled by the centaur community in the Forbidden Forest. Letting him go back now means letting him die... Adam can certainly stop the centaurs' atrocities. After all, as the principal, the Forbidden Forest now belongs to him, but he can only Saving Professor Firenze's life cannot force the centaurs to improve their attitude towards Professor Firenze.

They are both inseparable from this position now, and there happens to be a certain difference in their teaching levels - Professor Trelawney is very detailed, but what he teaches is not the real thing, and he can get by by fooling around, while Professor Firenze teaches Real divination skills, but the level requirements for students are too high.

Let's coordinate, Professor Trelawney teaches O.W.L.s students, and Professor Firenze teaches .s students, it's just right.

"As for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor next semester, I already have a candidate, but please allow me to keep it secret for the time being."

Seeing the mysterious smile on Adam's face, Professor McGonagall nodded.

At least for now, it seems that Adam is more reliable than Dumbledore as a principal, so there should be no problems.

After Professor McGonagall left, Adam got up and came to Grindelwald's residence:

"How's it going? Can you handle it?"

Originally, Adam wanted Grindelwald to take the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but according to Grindelwald, he needed some time to study the curse, and maybe he could solve it directly.

"Very stubborn, very hidden... but not difficult."

After getting rid of his prisoner status and cleaning himself up, Grindelwald regained some of his former vigor and vitality. He sat on a chair, crossed his legs, and played with the Elder Wand in his hand.

Although Grindelwald did not defeat Adam and let the Elder Wand recognize him, the Elder Wand in this state is still a powerful wand.

"Voldemort... is indeed a wizard with outstanding talent in the dark arts, but it's a pity that he has split his soul too many times. I'm afraid that he can't even solve the exquisite curse he set when he was young."

When mentioning this junior, Grindelwald showed some regret on his face.

"It's good that you can solve it. Please teach the students some practical skills. It won't be peaceful outside for a while."

Adam remembered the newspaper he had read before. Fudge stepped down, the Department of Mysteries was bombed, and the Death Eaters invaded the Ministry of Magic like they were in an empty space. Everyone in the Ministry of Magic already knew the truth.

In the current situation, students urgently need a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts with enough ability to teach them how to protect themselves.

Hogwarts is safe, but students can't stay in Hogwarts forever.
