The news that Professor Lupine was a werewolf caused quite a stir in the Hogwarts school, making most of the students hungry for a while, until...a week later, the melon-eaters at Hogwarts paid for it.
paid the price.
After Professor Lupine resigned as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, the students were shocked to find that the school did not hire another professor to take over Professor Lupine's job, but instead directly canceled the Defense Against the Dark Arts course.
That's right, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class has been temporarily canceled by the school.
The reason is that Principal Dumbledore is temporarily unable to recruit a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and no one is willing to teach the students as substitutes.
This incident caused great misfortune to the students of Hogwarts who were facing the final exams, especially the students who were about to participate in O.W.LS and S.
Because Professor Lu Ping had resigned before he even had time to explain to everyone the key points of the exam, let alone the questions he thought were most likely to appear in the exam.
The Defense Against the Dark Arts class, which was already a tricky one, completely stunned the fifth and seventh grade students.
As a result, the only Defense Association that was related to Defense Against the Dark Arts classes and offered tutoring for fifth grade students became even more popular.
Some students with a particularly strong desire to survive even made the bold proposal of letting Albert teach everyone the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. The most speechless thing was that Professor McGonagall actually asked Albert for his opinion.
If it were anyone else, they would naturally not have this qualification, but geniuses like Albert are an exception. Also receiving similar treatment is the talented girl Isobel who is about to graduate.
Neither of them agreed to teach the students, but they were willing to use the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom to teach everyone the key points of the exam in their spare time, which could be regarded as helping everyone with tutoring.
As for whether to go to the party or not, that is a matter for other students.
The news spread throughout the school like wings. Many students expressed disdain, but more people were relieved, especially the fifth and seventh grade students. After all, other grades did not need to take the Defense Against Dark Arts test, but the fifth grade students were relieved.
Both grades 1 and 7 need to face important exams.
The grades of o.w.ls and s are your own, and no one will have trouble with you. Even most of the fifth-grade Slytherin students went to the party holding their noses. Guys who want to cause trouble at the party will be hostile to everyone.
Before Albert could speak, a group of people would throw the troublemaker out.
"Goodbye Mr. Anderson."
After the party, a group of girls greeted him with a smile.
At first, a certain Ravenclaw girl used it to tease him, but for some reason, many fifth-year students called him that, making Albert feel several years older all of a sudden.
The most gratifying thing is probably that I successfully triggered and completed a task related to "Teacher", which rewarded me with some experience and reputation in the magic world.
"I really hope this semester ends soon." Fred stretched out his hand and scratched his head, turning his head and complaining to George who was doing homework next to him, "O.w.l exams are coming soon, why are the professors still giving us homework so hard?
, I feel like I’m almost being driven crazy.”
"Albert definitely doesn't want you to throw away your studies now." George understood what Fred meant. He actually wanted to throw away the annoying homework and drop out to open a joke shop in Diagon Alley.
But he knew very well that Albert didn't want them to do this.
The fact that the Weasley twins have such little thoughts actually comes from an unexpected gain not long ago.
Although Blake could not get the 10,000 bounty, Albert still managed to get a large amount of money through that incident, and the three people involved in the incident also received 10% of the benefit.
As for where that money comes from?
Lee Jordan overheard this from Harry. It was said that Albert secretly accepted the commission for the portrait, helped Blake clear his name, and received a full reward of five thousand galleons.
10% per person, which is five hundred galleons!
That’s five hundred galleons!
The three of them were shocked by Albert's generosity. That night, they didn't actually do anything, so they easily got a large sum of galleons.
With a thousand galleons, the twins had enough start-up capital to open a store. Recently, they had been laughing in their dreams, which made Lee Jordan look at them a little weird.
"You don't want to drop out of school directly to open a store, right?" Li Qiaodan asked suspiciously.
The four of them had planned to open a store together for a long time, and he suspected that Fred and George wanted to start the plan in advance.
"We would like to, but Albert will probably not agree." Fred shrugged and looked at Albert who was writing a letter.
"If you don't have enough knowledge accumulation, you will soon encounter all kinds of troubles in developing joke props." Albert said to the twins while checking the contents of the letter, "Zoko is actually the best case.
, when people reach middle age, or even without middle age, their minds will become blank and they will no longer be able to come up with interesting inventions. The shops will be like that. When the shops here open, you will soon squeeze them out.
shop."
"Really?" Fred and George looked at each other, but Albert's words were always accurate.
"Really, but Jokowi will probably not sit and wait for death. He will definitely cause trouble for you in other ways." Albert said calmly.
"You seem to have said similar things before." Lee Jordan said with a smile.
"It's not the right time, is it?" George muttered.
"Now is not the time to open a store, and I think you should seize the opportunity to accumulate while you are in school to prepare for opening a store after graduation. After leaving school, you basically have no extra time to study."
Of course, even if Fred and George wanted to drop out of school and open a joke shop, there would be no galleons. Albert did not give them the galleons, and the galleons would still be in his treasury.
"I think Albert is right. It's too early to open a store now and we are not ready yet." Lee Jordan also felt that it was best to follow Albert's advice, which would save them a lot of trouble.
"At least, you have to make them popular among students like the wizard cards, so that customers will pay attention to our store in the future. Moreover, opening a store requires skills, and we still need to figure out how to make money."
In the HP novel, the Weasley twins' O.W.LS results were a mess. Now that they have start-up capital, the two are even better, but Albert still hopes to get the twins back on track.
You can’t have him do everything in the future, right?
That wouldn't be enough to annoy him to death.
The main reason why Albert took his roommate to open a store was to share the money while he was still there, and also to find a way to monetize the knowledge he had mastered.
In his opinion, the reserve of knowledge determines the upper limit of the joke shop, and also determines the amount of money distributed, and even determines whether to live a leisurely life or to spend money while lying down.
Of course he could help Fred and George, but Albert still felt that Fred, George and Lee Jordan needed to work harder on their own.
As for how to... convince them, Albert is very experienced in this area.
After all, he is half a magician.
Sometimes, working hard for your own ideals and goals is more motivation than anything else.
then……
In short, Albert felt that he had the potential to be a life coach. He persuaded others in one way and easily convinced them (foolishly).
Since May has passed, the exams are approaching. Students have to endure the temptation outside the castle and force their brains to work hard. Even Fred and George are working hard to prepare for the upcoming O.W.LS exams.
As the exam approaches, various weird exam syndromes become more and more prominent.
Percy, the president of the Student Union, became increasingly irritable and irritable. He severely punished anyone who disturbed the tranquility of the common room at night.
Katrina from Ravenclaw likes to come over and discuss the so-called key points of the exam with Albert in their spare time. Digory also has this habit, as if they are sure that the key points mentioned by Albert will be passed in the exam.
Hufflepuff Patricia Stinson broke down again, crying over the Transfiguration Charm and saying she was a fool and couldn't learn anything.
Slytherin is promoting to others how difficult the O.W.LS exam is, and saying that so and so used what to get excellent results in the O.W.LS exam.
He is so insidious and wants to lead people into a trap.
Some people also like to inquire about other people's review time more and more, which is very annoying anyway.
Everyone prepares for the O.W.LS exam in different ways.
In order to completely stimulate the fighting spirit of the three of them, Albert generously offered that if their O.W.LS test scores were good, he would invite them to watch the Quidditch World Cup during the summer vacation (Blake wanted to give Albert some World Cup tickets), and he could also help along the way.
Predicting the outcome of the World Cup final.
Fred, George and Lee Jordan all understood, which meant that they could make a fortune together.
In the past, Albert was very accurate when making bets with others. If he added predictions, it would be a sure-fire business.
With the three-pronged approach, the three people's enthusiasm for learning was completely aroused. Taking the same purple candies given by Albert, they worked hard to review every day. In the evening, they even checked each other and recited the key knowledge that needed to be memorized.
Of course, the three of them are also very smart. They spend most of their time consolidating the subjects they are good at. Although they are suspected of being seriously partial to subjects, they are much better than facing the O.W.LS exam casually.
Recently, Katrina seemed to be on fire. She always liked to discuss key points with him, as if she would not stop until she had given him all twelve courses.
To this end, she also brought out a killer weapon and invited Isobel to persuade Albert to obey.
Albert actually wanted Katrina to go back and learn Legilimency from Isobel, so that she wouldn't have to worry about the written exam.
Fred, George and Li Jordan actually wanted to learn it, but the three of them just couldn't learn it, otherwise they wouldn't have to work so hard to memorize it.
Albert still remembered that when he returned to the dormitory one time, he saw Fred blocking his ears with his fingers, his lips moving silently, and reciting the transformation notes over the years.
George, whose face was covered with notes, was lying on the bed reciting the definition of basic spells. Lee Jordan helped him check against "Standard Spells, Level 5". If he made a mistake, he would put a note on George's face.
When the three of them saw Albert coming back, they stopped reciting. They threw the books away and took a bottle from the bedside table to ask Albert.
"How many more of these do you have?"
"We all thought this thing would be very popular."
The three of them were talking one sentence at a time, which made Albert have a headache.
"There is only the last bottle left of that thing. It will be gone after eating it." Albert said, "So I will let you save some at the beginning."
"Then can you get some more and take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money?"
"No, I'm not available at the moment." Albert said.
"How do you do it? Do you want us to give it a try?" George suggested.
"Making potions requires a certain level of potion skills. With your current level of potions, you still can't make this thing." Albert knew very well the potion levels of Fred, George and Li Jordan. He shook his head and said, "You
Now you know why I want you to study hard. Otherwise, even if I give you the formula and manufacturing method, you will not be able to make it. Even if you barely succeed, it will not achieve the effect you eat, and the quality will be poor.
a lot of."
"The ingredients are complicated?"
"What you are taking now is an improved version of the intelligence enhancer." Albert did not hide it, and continued: "There are several kinds of magic potions mixed in it. Didn't you realize that after eating it, not only the brain becomes more alert, but also the energy becomes more energetic?
Enough, even the whole person's mood becomes happy, and the person becomes cheerful and confident?"
"Yes, it's a bit like taking a Felixir, but the lasting effect is very short."
This is actually the civilian version of the Elixir of Fortune. Although it cannot have the same effect as the Elixir of Fortune, it can still add a positive buff to people, but I don’t know why, and the duration is very average.
"So, you've finished eating that thing?"
The expressions of the three of them were a little embarrassed, and they looked away, not daring to look at Albert.
"Do you know what I call that thing?" Albert suddenly asked.
"What's it called?" the three asked curiously.
"IQ candy is used to fool others. Only stupid people with a lot of money will buy this thing." Albert wordlessly took out a folder from his backpack, shook the thing in his hand and said, "Don't worry about that thing.
Come, come and take a look at this thing."
"What's this?"
"The key points of the exam." Albert threw the folder on the table and said, "It is said that as long as you can master it, you can basically do well in the exam."
"As expected of Albert."
The three of them immediately rushed toward the folder, fearing that the thing would spread its wings and fly away. After George picked up the things inside and flipped through them, he immediately looked miserable. There were really a lot of so-called key points. If he didn't memorize them all,
I know I have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
"Is there any key point among the key points?" Li Qiaodan asked in a low voice.
"Why didn't you ask if there were any test papers?"
"I don't think it would be surprising if you actually got the test paper."
"Yes, it's right behind." Albert said.
The three of them turned over and found that they had indeed found the test paper. But when they took a closer look, they found that it was last year's test paper, and their expressions froze.
"Do you think we can sell this thing?"
The eyes of the three of them lit up and they continued, "We can sort these out and sell them to others as exam materials. For one galleons a copy, there will definitely be a bunch of people willing to pay."
"I think you're going to get beaten."
"Who dares to hit us?"
The next moment, a fist was enlarged in front of Fred, knocking him down on the bed.
"You actually hit me." Fred glared at George.
"Stop making trouble and review quickly. There are many opportunities to make money, so don't rush." George shrugged, "But these handwritings don't seem to be yours."
"Well, no, Katrina sorted it out. I got points for you, so thank me very much."
"By the way, why did Mr. Anderson hook up with Katrina again?"
"Teacher Anderson, please teach me how to pick up a girlfriend."
"There's no hope for you. Teacher Anderson is quite handsome, but no matter how you look at it, you can't match the handsomeness."
