Chapter 183

“Hey, what do you think the professor will be like this year?”A little lion’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

“I hope he’s not as unreliable as Professor Lockhart last year!” Another little lion pouted,”It would be nice to have an interesting professor.”

“You still want fun? I just want him to be a little more reliable.” The little lions’ eyes sparkled, and they made bets with anticipation, twisting their bodies from time to time while whispering to each other.

“I bet this new professor will bring a different teaching method!”

“Maybe there will be many interesting magic experiments!”

“Well, I hope to learn some powerful defense against the dark arts.”

Neville said in a worried tone:”Anyway, I don’t want to meet Professor Lockhart again.”

In his eyes, there was a trace of contempt for Professor Lockhart, as if he was the bottom line of the professor and no one could compare with him.

When they hurried to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, they looked around but did not see Professor Lupin~~

“Why hasn’t the professor come yet?”

“”You won’t be as late as Professor Lockhart, will you?”

They couldn’t help whispering, stamping their feet anxiously and looking towards the door from time to time.

Finally, with the ringing of the class bell, Professor Lupin strode into the classroom.

Although his expression was gentle, his words were bold and crisp:”Good morning, students. I have learned about your situation in the past two years from Professor Dumbledore. Except for Harry, your grades are not very optimistic.”

Hearing this, the little lions’ faces instantly became a little embarrassed.

There was nothing they could do about it, because the previous two professors were unreliable.

They didn’t have the ability to get an O by self-study, not even Hermione could do it.

“So, everyone, quickly put your textbooks into your schoolbags. Today, you only need to wave your wands. Let’s go to another classroom to start a fun and interesting practical class.”The expressions of the little lions instantly became complicated.

Some of them clenched their fists excitedly, and some bit their lips nervously. After all, the last time Lockhart took them to experience a not-so-wonderful practical class,

“The last practical class taught by Professor Lockhart was terrible. I hope this new class will bring a brand new experience.”

“I wonder what new and interesting things there will be?”

Their eyes were involuntarily on Harry, who had stood up and followed Lupin out the door.

“With Harry here, even if something goes wrong, it will be fine.”

So, they didn’t hesitate any more, quickly put down their schoolbags, and followed Professor Lupin out of the classroom like a group of little tails.

They hurriedly crossed the corridor and turned a corner.

With a”whoosh”, Peeves came down like a flash of lightning.

“”Lupin is a madman and a fool, Lupin is a madman and a fool!”

He shook his head and hummed a strange little tune, while holding handfuls of chalk and throwing them at Lupin like raindrops.

The little wizards’ eyes were as big as copper bells, their mouths were open enough to fit an egg, and their faces were full of surprise.

You know, Peeves and the Weasley brothers are of the same character, and they are extremely keen on pranks.

Although he is a little naughty on weekdays, he has always respected professors. Even last year’s boastful Professor Lockhart has never been so rude to him.

Why is it so special to Lupin, because he doesn’t have to go to class or take exams?

“It’s not a smart choice to treat a professor like this, Peeves!”Professor Lupin waved his wand calmly, and the flying chalk seemed to hit a wall and immediately stopped in front of him.

However, Peeves still didn’t give up, and he pouted his little mouth and continued to throw the chalk at Lupin tenaciously.

Lupin sighed softly, turned around, and looked at the little wizards with gentle eyes:”Here, I will teach you a very useful little spell.”

“Pay attention to my gestures, the movements should be gentle and fast.”

“” Wadiwasi!”

Before he finished speaking, the chalk flew backwards like an arrow, hitting Peeves squarely.

Peeves grimaced in pain, holding his head, jumping up and down to avoid the chalk he had thrown, mumbling something in his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, he fled.

Although I couldn’t hear what he was cursing, it must have been very dirty.

“If Peeves does the same to you in the future, or if there are any small objects around you that bother you.” Lupin waved his wand again, and the scattered chalks quickly gathered together like well-trained soldiers, and then were thrown into the trash can obediently.

“You can use this little spell to deal with Peeves, it’s a very practical little spell.”

The little wizards were so excited that their faces flushed, they couldn’t help but applaud, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

Look at this lively scene…

This year’s professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts seems to be quite reliable!

Looking back on the past two years, the first-year professors were chased all over the campus by the Weasley brothers with snowballs; the second-year professors were just boastful.

At least, the professor in front of them can easily deal with Peeves, which is something that fifth- and sixth-year students can hardly do.

Maybe this professor really has the ability.

Without being disturbed by annoying guys, Lupin smiled and led them through the corridor, and walked briskly into an abandoned classroom.

The classroom was filled with an old and musty smell, with abandoned tables and chairs, piles of training dummies, and some cleaning tools that Filch had broken.

What no one expected was that when they opened the door, they were given a huge surprise – Snape.

He sat on a chair, staring coldly at the students who pushed the door open, especially at Harry and Lupin’s faces.

This made all the excited students quiet down instantly.

Neville had quietly retreated to the back of the crowd, looking at Snape timidly.

“Snape…Professor.”Lupin said in astonishment,”I didn’t expect you to come here. Are you here to observe my first class?”

He really didn’t expect to see Snape here, and was very surprised.

He waved his wand and prepared to close the door.

But Snape stood up and interrupted him:”If your dog’s head is not full of feces, you should know that I don’t have the leisure to sit down and enjoy a farce. I just happen to rest here.”………….0………….0

“Oh, take care of yourself, Lupin.” A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked straight out. The little wizards quickly stepped back to make way for him.

But when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around, with a sarcastic smile on his face:”I have to tell you some news. Since Mr. Potter entered the school, no professor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class has had a good end.”

“You should also be very clear about what happened to Quirrell and Lockhart! This position is not so easy to hold on to. I don’t know if you can hold on until the end of the semester.”

Many young wizards shuddered. They knew that there seemed to be some curse on this position, but the one who was cursed was Harry.

They looked at Harry with an expressionless face. It was so hard to get a professor who seemed reliable. Harry shouldn’t do anything to him this year, right?

But some young wizards were a little confused.

Snape seemed to know this Professor Lupin. At least they hadn’t seen Snape treat Quirrell and Lockhart like this.

He was more sarcastic towards Lockhart, but towards Lupin, he was disgusted.

Harry could also hear Snape’s tone, but he knew something.

The two dealt with each other and used curses on each other when they were in school. How could their relationship be good?

Lupin was already accustomed to Snape’s sarcasm, and he immediately fought back:”Thank you, but I heard that you have always been eager for this position.”

“After all these years, your habit of loving to be abused has not changed?”

Snape snorted coldly, walked away, and waved his wand, slamming the door shut.

“”Masochism?”

This simple yet profound word made the young wizards’ eyes sparkle.

They smelled the scent of gossip and started to chatter, with some turning their heads to look at Harry.

“All right.” Lupin waved at them and led them to the other end of the classroom.
