Chapter 21: Scores Don’t Matter

Kayson felt a little embarrassed when he heard Dumbledore's praise: "Did you find some very difficult task for me?"

Dumbledore shook his head: "I really just felt it. Go and send the letter. I'll go to the kitchen to find the elves to start a small stove."

"Uh-huh." Kaison shrugged, walked into the owl loft, quickly mailed the letter and returned to the castle.

After returning to the office, he randomly took out some cube and tapped it lightly, and a series of positive emotional notifications appeared in front of him.

Because every time I go to class, a series of emotional notification notes will pop up directly in my face. In order to prevent me from being suddenly interrupted by some little witch who appears to be serious in the middle of the lecture, but in fact has already had pink bubbles behind my back. I was so scared that I couldn't speak.

He took the initiative to close the notification bar from the beginning of the third period until he remembered and opened it again.

Of course, sometimes he forgets to close it. This is the responsibility of his bad memory.

At the end of the day's classes, just when he was about to make himself a cup of refreshing green tea to reward himself, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

"The door is unlocked, please come in."

A small figure opened the door, and Kayson raised his eyebrows. It was Neville.

There were two more behind him, no, three.

Two men and one woman, one of whom is an acquaintance, Harry.

The other two...

"Come in, everyone. It looks like you are friends?"

Neville nodded excitedly.

"Congratulations to you Neville, and congratulations to you, you have made a very good friend."

Kaisen took out four more cups and poured green tea for them.

"Professor, let me introduce to you, these are Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger, the three friends I made." Neville introduced excitedly.

"Hmm, drinking tea may be a bit bitter."

Kayson waved his magic wand, and the teapot on the desk floated to the coffee table in the corner. After all, when a professor and a student talk across the desk, it sounds like a lecture, but it is much better on the sofa.

"Today that Malfoy came to trouble me again. I used the levitation spell to lift him up, and then threw him heavily to the ground. His two followers wanted to rush over and beat me with their fists, but Harry and Ron They happened to run into me and they helped me fight off Malfoy."

"Malfoy also said that he wanted to tell Professor Snape that we met Hermione when we didn't know what to do. She suggested that we come to you, and I just want to tell you that my resistance was successful!"

Neville said while sitting on the sofa with his face flushed and dancing.

"Hmm, you made a brave first step, and you also made loyal and reliable friends." Kaisen nodded in admiration.

Neville's already red face became even more excited when he heard the words of approval, while Harry and Ron were a little embarrassed when they heard the adjective used to describe their best friends.

And Hermione still remembered what the four of them were here for.

"Professor Kayson, Malfoy said he was going to tell Snape, and he would definitely call Neville over and severely deduct points from Gryffindor."

"Let him deduct it. Didn't Professor McGonagall deduct Slytherin's points last time? It doesn't matter." Kaysen said casually.

"But...Professor, the Gryffindor score..."

"Gryffindor's points are actually not important. What is important is that Neville will no longer be a bullied bag from now on. As for deducting points, you just treat it as a favor for Snape. How about that?" ?”

Hermione shook her head: "No, Malfoy obviously made a mistake in this matter first, and in the end, Gryffindor's points will be deducted. This is unfair."

"...You may not know that when I was a child, I went to school in the Muggle world. From a community primary school to the University of Manchester, basically all students believed that students' conflicts should be resolved by themselves."

"Telling the teacher that this conventional approach cannot solve the problem, and often does not really punish the wrong party, on the contrary, the victim will be retaliated against, and only hitting him back with a real fist will be effective," Kaison explained.

"Um...Professor, I don't quite understand." Hermione said a little embarrassed.

"On the surface, what I mean is to encourage Neville to resist, but another meaning is, don't be afraid of deducting points. Why is Mr. Malfoy, who did something wrong, not afraid of deducting points, but Neville, who did everything right, is afraid of deducting points? "

“Should good people be held at gunpoint?”

Kaisen spread his hands and said bluntly.

Harry and Ron looked at each other and nodded in agreement, while Neville had already believed what Kayson said.

Only Hermione always felt weird: "But the score..."

"The score is not important, it is just illusory. The so-called honor, if a little wizard is restrained and does not dare to resist because of such illusory things, then it is better not to get this honor."

"The professor is absolutely right!" Neville finally couldn't help but echoed.

"Hmm, Professor McGonagall will be very happy to know that you are resisting. This matter is nothing more than deducting ten or twenty points from you. Maybe Snape will deduct more points, but it doesn't matter. It will be over if you hold on. The Weasley twins are George and Fred, and Ron’s brother gets ten and twenty points deducted every day, isn’t that pretty good.”

"Yes, I remember Professor!" Neville nodded heavily.

............................

After sending the four little wizards away, Kaisen was free again.

Well, actually not so free.

An illusory phoenix with a silver-white glow suddenly appeared in his office and said, "Professor Kaisen, please come to the corridor on the fourth floor of the school, which is the forbidden area I mentioned at the beginning of the school."

"Amazing magic."

Kaysen stood up and walked out of the office helplessly, not knowing what work Dumbledore had to do.

It was not until he came to the corridor that he realized that he was not the only one who was called. Basically, the professors of the main courses were here, and Hagrid was also here. He was leading a... three... one dog.

He was leading a huge three-headed dog and was trying to appease the big dog.

"I invited you here to help me set up obstacles. I want to protect a precious thing, the Philosopher's Stone given to me by Nicolas Flamel."

Dumbledore took out a blood-red gem from his pocket.

And Quirrell looked at the Philosopher's Stone with a strange look.
