Chapter 485 Umbridge’s Counterattack
·
Bai Bai Le Kai Shui
Although he returned to Hogwarts and took back Karkaroff's original position as professor, Tver was unable to bring more interesting classes to the students as he did in previous years.
Even some magical creatures couldn't be brought over.
On the one hand, it was because Tver was too busy before and did not have much time to prepare lessons for the students.
On the other hand, because of Umbridge's existence, students don't actually need any fancy course content...
What they need most is to make up for the missing magic practice in the first half of the year before the exams, especially before the owls and newt exams, as well as review the past magic!
Therefore, Tver focused his time and energy on summarizing the magic for students to use in the exam, and then let them seize the time to practice in class.
As for Umbridge's opinion...
Umbridge dares to have an opinion?
"Good morning everyone."
After a truly comfortable life, Tver's face was visibly happy.
Facts have proved that his so-called unlucky situation was entirely due to his overestimation!
Even if he didn't set any flag, the wizarding world would become a little panicked because of Voldemort's resurrection.
Then he would naturally have to get busy.
Now, for the wizarding world, no matter whether Voldemort is really resurrected or not, at least their lives have not been affected too much.
Then this panic will naturally subside, allowing Tver to truly relax.
"Cough cough."
With this artificial coughing sound, Tver could guess who it was with all the hair he had combed this morning!
"I remember this was my Defense Against the Dark Arts course, right?" He rummaged through the test paper in his hand with great movements, as if his teaching schedule was hidden in it.
"Is Professor Umbridge suffering from Alzheimer's disease?"
Seeing Umbridge's confused look, Tweel immediately explained with a secret smile.
"Oh, this is a disease named by Muggles. It is used to describe the memory loss and trembling hands that occur in old age... Hey, this is your situation now!"
He pointed in surprise at Umbridge's hand that was holding the clipboard trembling with rage.
The fake smile on Umbridge's face suddenly couldn't be maintained.
She originally planned to rely on her status as a senior investigator to come and stumble Tver, but she didn't expect that Tver would ridicule her so unscrupulously.
She hasn't said a word this time!
Hey, does this mean Tver won’t be able to interrupt him?
Umbridge suddenly thought strangely.
This abnormal demeanor actually startled Tver.
If Umbridge reveals some strange attribute, he doesn't care, because he is afraid that this attribute will only affect him, which will directly disgust him to death!
"Ahem." After a while, Umbridge came back to her senses.
"I'm a wizard, I will never suffer from stupid diseases like Muggles!"
"That's not necessarily true. Alzheimer's disease is irreversible brain damage..."
Tweel muttered and put the test paper on the podium, showing his timidity when facing Umbridge for the first time.
After all, Umbridge's appearance is still very lethal...
"Sorry everyone, it took a little time, but it doesn't matter, we will start now..."
"I think you don't know yet, so I'll remind you first."
When she thought about her biggest reliance, Umbridge's arrogance finally became... a little more arrogant.
"As the senior inquisitor of Hogwarts, I have the power to review the teaching of every professor, and I also have the power to fire certain unqualified professors."
"That's it?" Tver turned his head away speechlessly.
"Let's recall the magic we learned before today..."
He sighed and turned to look at Umbridge, who was in urgent need of a nucleic acid test.
"If your cough persists, my suggestion is to read more."
Umbridge was stunned for a moment. This was the first time she had seen this kind of response since she was used to coughing to attract others' attention.
"why?"
"Because then you'll understand that as long as your throat is fine, it's not polite to cough loudly in public."
Umbridge immediately grimaced.
"I'm sorry, I just want to remind you that after careful research by authorities from the Department of Education, Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts can only be taught in a more reasonable way."
Seeing that Tver wanted to open his mouth to refute, she quickly said: "I'm not afraid even if it's an exam!"
"The Wizarding Examination Authority revealed to me yesterday that they are going to increase the ratio of theoretical scores in the OLS and NEWT exams!"
Umbridge raised her head proudly. This was the reason she dared to come here today!
But it has to be said that Tver did show an unexpected expression.
Of course, the veteran examiners at the Examination Institute understand the importance of theoretical exams, so there has always been a rule that two types of exams are held in parallel, and the final overall score is also a combination of the two types of exams.
But according to Umbridge, if theoretical exams account for the main points, then students like Harry who mainly rely on practical exams will suffer severely.
But, would the examiners at the Wizarding Examination Authority who are older than Dumbledore compromise because of Umbridge?
Tver gave her a playful look and suddenly understood.
It turned out that a certain examiner took the trouble to give her a perfunctory sentence...
As for whether it was true, Tver didn't know and didn't need to know.
"Since the score of the theory test has been increased, it will naturally be handed over to you, the 'senior' professor." Not only did Tweel not show a frustrated expression as Umbridge wanted to see, but he said in surprise. .
"Professor Umbridge definitely doesn't care about the rest of the practical learning. Wouldn't it be suitable for me to do it instead?"
"what?"
Umbridge felt that either her brain was running out of energy, or that Tweel was crazy.
Otherwise, how could you not follow his train of thought at all? !
"But...if students' grades decline..."
"Of course it's my responsibility." Tver easily shouldered the responsibility.
He happily looked at the students who were mourning for their heirs.
"You haven't reacted yet? You will study theory in Professor Umbridge's class from now on..."
He put the stack of papers on the podium back into his wallet, and then pulled out his wand as their eyes grew excited.
"As for my class—"
"practice!"
Before Tver could say the answer, the students immediately shouted out happily for him. Without saying a word, they pulled out their wands and threw the books on the table into their schoolbags.
Tver had also given them practical exercises before, but the frequency was not that high. It was basically the same as before, taking the exam first and then practicing magic.
And now, not only do they no longer need to waste the professor's precious class time, they can also practice magic in front of Umbridge!
Just thinking about it makes the smiles on their faces become more arrogant.
If the professor hadn't been standing nearby, they would all have wanted to rush in front of Umbridge and show off their power!
Even some magical creatures couldn't be brought over.
On the one hand, it was because Tver was too busy before and did not have much time to prepare lessons for the students.
On the other hand, because of Umbridge's existence, students don't actually need any fancy course content...
