Chapter 91

For students living at Hogwarts, weekends are undoubtedly a good day.

On weekends, everyone doesn’t have to worry about being late for class, and you can sleep until you wake up naturally. When you wake up, you don’t need to think about the problems you will encounter in class. You can have fun and relax from the stress accumulated during the week.

Let students take a breather during their busy study life.

Early in the morning, the Weasley brothers' bed was already empty. The two of them got up very early and went out, intending to plant garlic in an open space on the edge of the Forbidden Forest that could be exposed to sunlight.

This was a location they found with great effort. It was sparsely populated and there was no need to worry about being discovered.

To be honest, Albert really couldn't understand what Fred and George were thinking. Was it really just to make that ridiculous amulet that they spent time and energy growing garlic?

Maybe!

Anyway, they both have very clear minds, and nothing they do is strange.

Before Albert finished his breakfast, Fred and George had already returned. Their robes and hands were stained with mud. After hurriedly going to the bathroom to wash themselves off, they chatted with him about growing garlic.

Listening to the two chattering, Albert actually wanted to complain for a long time. Did they not have the concept of planting garlic in flower pots?

After declining Li Jordan's invitation to practice on the Quidditch field, Albert reached out and knocked on the wooden door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office on the second floor of the castle as soon as the hand on his pocket watch reached ten o'clock.

By the way, the last time I entered Professor McGonagall's office, did I tear down the wooden door of Professor McGonagall's office?

At that time, a few of them were not punished by Professor McGonagall. Thinking about it now, it’s really incredible!

The wooden door was opened from the inside. Professor Bud Broad looked at Albert standing outside the door and invited him into his office with a smile: "It has just arrived at ten o'clock. You are really on time!"

"I hope I didn't disturb you." Albert walked into Professor Brod's office and looked at this extremely comfortable room. There were several soft sofas in it, bronze carpets under his feet, and neat walls.

There are several bookshelves on the floor, filled with all kinds of books, the number must be over a hundred. There are blue silk curtains hanging by the window, and looking down from the window, you can see the courtyard of the castle. Now, there are students in the courtyard.

Take a walk, chat, and bask in the sun.

"What do you want to drink?" Brod asked.

"Milk tea." Albert asked curiously: "Professor, I would like to ask, did you graduate from Ravenclaw?"

"Yes, it's not difficult to guess, right." Brod blinked at Albert. He raised his wand and tapped the empty tea cup in front of them. The fragrant milk tea smell immediately came out of the cup.

.

Albert put a few sugar cubes into his milk tea and slowly stirred it with a spoon. After a moment, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "I heard that Ravenclaw's eagle-shaped bronze door knocker is very interesting."

"Yes." Professor Broad nodded, "As long as you can answer the question on the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker, the Ravenclaw common room will be open to you."

Albert smiled and said nothing, shaking his head slightly.

Despite what Professor Broad said, he did not expect Ravenclaw students to welcome a stranger into their common room.

People are always xenophobic, and if students from other houses came to the Gryffindor common room, the consequences would not be difficult to guess.

Professor Broad pointed to the desserts on the table and said, "You might like the freshly baked pumpkin pie."

"I also like pumpkin pie. It tastes great when it's hot!" After taking a piece of pumpkin pie that was still steaming, Albert talked about the book he had read a while ago: "By the way, Professor, I just read it.

After finishing "Simple Alchemy", that book gave me a... very special feeling."

He organized his vocabulary a little and hesitated for a moment before continuing: "It's hard to imagine that what is described in that book is the so-called alchemy. Do you know anything about it?"

"I don't want to pretend to be an expert in alchemy. On the contrary, my understanding of alchemy is limited to the knowledge in books." Professor Brod shook his head and said: "I think you are definitely not here to discuss with me today.

It’s about alchemy, right?”

Albert knew it was time to end the topic of alchemy, so he brought the topic to "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" and talked about some of his doubts about reading this book, and by the way talked about the spells described in the book.

"I'm glad you talked about this topic." Professor Broad said happily: "Yes, that's right, as you can see, "Dark Force: Self-Defense Guide" does not record many useful defense against monsters.

Curse, but do you know why this book has become a must-have for Defense Against the Dark Arts classes?"

"I know." Albert nodded: "This book can help us understand the dark creatures that exist in the world, and teach us how to deal with these dark creatures when we encounter them."

"Yes, you are right. In fact, this book is really not enough for a gifted student like you." Professor Broad put down the teacup and said, "However, the Ministry of Magic doesn't like to let students come into contact with knowledge.

A moderately offensive spell."

"Yes, it's not hard to see." Albert picked up another piece of pumpkin pie, took a bite, and continued, "If I want to learn more about defense against the dark arts, I wonder if you have any good suggestions."

"I recommend you to read the book "Practical Defense Magic and its Restraint against Dark Magic"." Professor Broad took a book from the bookshelf and handed it to Albert and said, "However, this set of books has

The price is a bit expensive, and the school library doesn’t have it yet. If you want to see it, I can lend it to you.”

"Oh, what a coincidence. I happened to buy this set of books. I think the Iron Armor Curse and the Disarming Curse are very useful." Albert quickly took out his handkerchief and wiped his greasy palms, then reached out and took the hand from Professor Broad.

The book that came over said, "Of course, the coma spell and the obstacle spell are also good. Unfortunately, I don't know much about breaking the spell."

"No, no, Mr. Anderson, it's amazing that you can master so many spells in a short period of time." The surprise in Professor Broad's eyes flashed away, and he asked with a smile, "I heard that McGonagall

The professor is very optimistic about your accomplishments in the Transfiguration Spell."

"I think my talent in magic is pretty good, and if I practice magic well, my speed will naturally not be too slow." Albert thought for a moment and said, "There is no harm in learning more. Maybe I will send someone in the future.

It comes in handy."

"Greed for knowledge is not a fault." Professor Broad suddenly showed an exaggerated expression, "Merlin's beard, to be honest, you are more like Ravenclaw than Ravenclaw. The Sorting Hat will definitely let you choose.

Bar!"

"Yes, the Sorting Hat thinks that I am suitable for all other houses except Slytherin." Albert blinked and said, "Actually, I have no particular prejudice against other houses, but because I met my current one on the train,

Friend, so I chose to go to Gryffindor."

"Yes, yes, it is a good thing not to be biased. It is difficult for many people to do this." Professor Brod's eyes showed a smile of appreciation.

"One day, after you finish studying "Practical Defense Magic and its Restraint against Dark Magic", your level of defense against black magic will reach the level of L." Professor Brod said regretfully.

Albert said: "Because this course was cursed by a wizard, the obviously important Defense Against the Dark Arts course has become dispensable. Most students are not very good in this area."

"Professor, is the person who cursed Defense Against the Dark Arts still alive?"

"I'm afraid so." Professor Brod nodded. "Otherwise, Dumbledore would probably try his best to lift the curse. After all, it's quite hard to find a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor every year."

"I heard from my roommate that the Ministry of Magic has a profession called Aurors. They are all experts in defense against the dark arts. Why doesn't Principal Dumbledore invite Aurors to teach students?" Albert asked curiously.

road.

To be honest, this was also the doubt that Albert had in his previous life. Retired Aurors are undoubtedly suitable to become Defense Against Dark Arts professors. They have rich experience and can benefit the school's students a lot with just a little bit of experience imparting.

.

"Many people are afraid." Professor Brod blinked. Albert dared to pat his chest and assured that he saw contempt in Professor Brod's eyes at that moment.

"Fear?"

"They think this profession is unlucky and are afraid of curses. There are very few professors who can leave this position safely." Professor Broad did not worry about his own safety because he was in this position. "Moreover, the Ministry of Magic actually

I don’t really want to see this happen.”

"Professor, I have another question." Albert said again.

"what is the problem."

"Has Principal Dumbledore ever thought about...stopping the Defense Against the Dark Arts course, choosing a new course, or changing the name of this course?" Albert said his thoughts in his previous life. Since Voldemort has imposed a threat on the Defense Against the Dark Arts course,

Curse, as long as this course disappears, the curse may disappear as well.

As for the name of the class, you can completely change it and call it defense class, self-defense class or whatever, it’s just a name.

Professor Brod smiled happily, as if he had heard something interesting.

"What you said makes sense. Defense Against the Dark Arts is just a name after all. It's okay to discard it when necessary." Professor Brod nodded in agreement with Albert's point of view. "I think Dumbledore should have thought about this too.

But the wizard who cursed the Defense Against the Dark Arts class is not dead yet. After removing this name, maybe he will curse the new class again."

Although this explanation was reasonable, Albert felt that it was an excuse. However, he did not ask any more questions and ended the topic.

"If you learn the spells in "Practical Defense Magic and its Restraint against Dark Magic", you can borrow "Defense and Deterrence Spells" from the library. This book introduces many powerful defensive spells, which should be enough to satisfy your needs.

You." Professor Broad continued, "However, there are some things you need to know. What you have seen is just the surface of magic. The magic of magic is that it will produce some subtleties according to your whims.

Changes. A powerful spell does not mean everything. Sometimes a small spell can easily solve the problem."

While Albert was still thinking about the meaning of this sentence, he heard Professor Broad say, "Okay, lunch time is coming, you'd better not miss it. It's a pleasure to chat with you. Most students are very interested in the professor."

It’s hard to sit down and have a good chat like you and I are in awe.”

"I also benefited a lot, and I look forward to the next chat." Albert nodded slightly to Professor Brod, turned and left the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
