When Professor Trelawney's prophecy caused a stir in Hogwarts Castle, rumors spread privately among the students that Albert planned to reorganize the "Defense Association", and everyone said that Albert was going to help everyone learn black magic.
I also personally compiled a black magic defense book called "Self-Defense Guide" as a teaching material based on the knowledge I missed in the defense class.
This is undoubtedly good news for the majority of Hogwarts students.
Although some people were dismissive of the "Self-Defense Guide" compiled by Albert, thinking that Albert was too arrogant, these noises were quickly suppressed and were despised and criticized by others.
Alienation.
Only brainless idiots and jealous fools would say such things.
As the champion of Barnabus Finkley's excellent spell casting skills, the champion of the Triwizard Tournament, the champion of the Wizard's Duel Competition, and also defeated the invincible dark wizard, there is no doubt about Albert's ability.
If even Albert is not qualified, who is?
Are other authors who write Defense Against the Dark Arts books a laughing stock? They do not have the dazzling title and aura of Albert.
Umbridge was a little slow to react to this rumor. By the time she received the news and tried to take action, the rumors had changed.
Because Albert himself directly stated that he was very busy this semester and had no time to tutor everyone.
The original rumors were self-defeating.
Of course, the truth is often only known to a few people, and Katrina is one of the insiders. She knows that Albert is very busy, and it is just an excuse to not have time to tutor everyone. After all, Albert has tutored her several times this month.
The effect was great, Katrina felt that her black magic defense level had greatly improved.
Before Umbridge could react, it was reported that Harry Potter actually wanted to reorganize the "Defense Association" and planned to take the opportunity to attack Umbridge. Some people also pointed out that the abbreviation of the "Defense Association" is DA.
, also the abbreviation of Dumbledore's Army.
Before Umbridge had time to rejoice that she had finally caught Potter and Dumbledore, a new rumor spread, saying that no one was preparing to reorganize the "Defense Association" at all, but that it was actually the Anti-Toad Alliance's preparations.
They finally planned to hold a party, preparing to use this opportunity to drive the toad out of Hogwarts in one fell swoop.
This is undoubtedly exciting news. The arrogance of the Anti-Toad Alliance is increasing day by day, and all kinds of strange rumors are flying all over Hogwarts.
However, according to Umbridge's findings: everyone is talking about the party, but no one knows who is organizing the party and when.
This smell is so familiar.
Another big deception!
There was no gathering from beginning to end. It was all a figment of the people of the so-called Anti-Toad Alliance, whose purpose was to unite to tease her.
Now Umbridge finally figured out what the Anti-Toad Alliance was.
This is a group that only exists on the surface. In fact, it is all the Hogwarts students who oppose her. The so-called toad mark never existed from the beginning. It was a lie they jointly spun. Those guys just spread rumors privately.
Anyway, sometimes if you talk too much, everyone will believe it, and you can also use it to disgust her.
As long as Umbridge is still working at Hogwarts and there are students who resist her in the school, the so-called anti-toad alliance will always exist and spread all kinds of rumors. Even if Umbridge wants to ban it, she can't stop it.
She can never cover other people's mouths if it grows on other people's faces.
I don't know who came up with this idea, but it made Umbridge very sick.
There are lies beneath the truth, and there is truth beneath the lies. It’s impossible to tell the truth from the lies, so it’s time to fish in troubled waters.
This was a trick that Lee Jordan learned from Albert. The effect was so amazing that it knocked Umbridge unconscious.
While Umbridge's attention was attracted by other news, Harry Potter had quietly formed the Defense Against the Dark Arts team under Toad's nose.
Neville was one of the few students who received the invitation. The Weasley brothers and their friend Lee Jordan also planned to join. Ginny naturally also received the invitation, as well as Angelina, Alia and others who were also on the Quidditch team.
Katie also received an invitation. They all had no prejudice against Harry and were considered good friends.
Harry barely managed to make up eleven people, all of whom were Gryffindor students. He actually didn't expect the Defense Against the Dark Arts team to grow to a large scale, he just wanted to study and learn Defense Against the Dark Arts with everyone.
However, what Harry didn't know was that he wasn't the only one invited.
George sent an invitation to Digory, Hermione also quietly invited Macmillan, and Ginny invited her boyfriend...
With the help of Albert's good roommate, Hermione finally got the entire Defense Against the Dark Arts team to operate quietly under Umbridge's eyes.
This time, Hermione took Harry's advice and was not in a hurry to expand the Defense Against the Dark Arts team. Instead, she planned to take a steady approach. She firmly believed that as long as everyone could learn useful knowledge in the Defense Against the Dark Arts team, this matter would definitely be done.
It will spread quietly among students, and then more students will be willing to join.
"The time for the first meeting of the Defense Against the Dark Arts team has been arranged!"
During a certain Herbology class, Hermione whispered to Harry and Ron, "Fred and George agreed that we use the Wizarding Card Game as a cover."
"Wizard card game?"
"I remember that the Wizarding Card Competition won't end until March or April next year, right?" Harry asked doubtfully. Although he didn't pay attention to these things, he still knew something about them.
"It's advanced this year, and it will end at the end of this month." Hermione said in a voice that only two people could hear, "We plan to put the party at the end of the Wizarding Card Competition."
"After every wizard card game, there will be a short celebration banquet. At that time, we will stay to help clean up the remaining garbage from the celebration banquet, and then take the opportunity to have the first party."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Toad certainly wouldn't have thought of it." Ron muttered, "Besides, I think that guy is a little afraid of Albert."
"Are you not afraid?" Harry asked in his heart.
Umbridge's series of unfortunate misfortunes are entirely due to Albert.
Although Umbridge may not be able to guess it.
"By the way, they will graduate next year, right? What about the wizard card club?" Ron suddenly asked.
"I heard that Luna Lovegood will inherit the club."
"Crazy girl, I really don't know how Albert chose." Ron muttered.
"She was also the champion of the Wizarding Card Competition, and she loves the Wizarding Card Club enough." Hermione did know a little bit. If she was not a prefect, she would actually have a chance to inherit the Wizarding Card Club.
"What about the follow-up games? I'm talking about how to solve the ten galleons bonus for the champion, or should I just cancel the championship reward?" Ron actually also wanted to compete for the champion's ten galleons bonus, but unfortunately his wizard card level is not as good as wizard chess.
.
"Don't worry, there will be activity funds." Hermione said casually.
"What is that?" Ron was a little confused.
"It's them who give the money to keep the game going," Harry explained.
"But...why...does this do him any good?"
Ron was shocked when he heard that Albert spent money to maintain the operation of the club. He really couldn't understand why Albert would do this.
"George said that as long as Wizard Cards can continue to be popular among students, the money to maintain the club is nothing, not even as much as the advertising fees in newspapers." Hermione admired Albert's series of arrangements for the Wizard Card Club.
.
Although Wizard Card is not worth gold galleons and not everyone likes this card game, the relaxed and free atmosphere in Wizard Card Club is still popular among students.
As far as Hermione knew, most of the students at Hogwarts were members of the Wizarding Club, and even many Slytherin students were members of the Wizarding Card Club.
