Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

Looking at the golden hourglass pendant in his hand, Lorne didn't know where to start researching it.

The wand in his hand was gently tapped on the table, making a crisp sound.

But from the appearance, there are no runes engraved on this hourglass, which shows that it is not like an alchemy tool, and its essence is very easy to see.

It seems that research is a bit difficult...

With this thought, Lorne opened the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Scarlet scythe eyes carefully observed the time turner.

There is no magic fluctuation in the surroundings, but there are small traces of magic in the hourglass. If you don't look carefully with a kaleidoscope, you can't see it at all.

It's this hourglass...

Lorne mused.

This is not a simple alchemy tool. It is naturally very difficult to study it.

Moreover, since there is only one time turner in front of him, it is naturally impossible for him to dismantle it for research.

"Really interesting technology."

Lorne looked at the hourglass in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

Being able to bury all the mysteries of time in this small hourglass, it seems that there is a force that cannot be underestimated in the Ministry of Magic.

Let Lockhart go if you have time. It would be nice to inquire about this hourglass.

But if you do your own research, I'm afraid it will take more time than you imagine.

Thinking of this, Lorne put the pendant away.

When he turned around, he was suddenly stunned..

I saw Miss Hermione, who was still sitting on the bed reading a book, now lying on the book and falling asleep, her steady breathing was very small.

"What time is it?"

He subconsciously glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.

Unknowingly, the time had reached around twelve o'clock at night.

Is it so late?

Did he study for that long just now?

Lorne thought doubtfully , but he still picked up Hermione and placed it on the inside of the bed.

The biography of Lockhart was placed on the table.

The soft moonlight fell, and Miss Granger's long eyelashes trembled. Sleeping face looks very cute

"Good night——"

………

Early the next morning.

After arriving at the auditorium early, Lorne looked at the class schedule in his hand.

Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson this morning.

The class location recorded above is still the same as last semester, without any changes.

"Don’t know what Professor Lupine will teach us?"

Ron thought of Lupine who played Werewolf with them last night and couldn't help but look forward to it.

"As long as it's not like Lockhart!"

Hermione's requirements are not high, as long as she can learn knowledge in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Hearing this, Harry nodded in agreement.

After breakfast, Lorne came to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom on time.

Maybe I came a little late, so there were already a lot of little wizards inside.

Since this class is a major class, it is taken by Gryffindor and Slytherin together, and it is not like an elective class. The four colleges went to school together.

Nine o'clock means the start of class.

Professor Luping's figure also opened the classroom door on time. With a soft creak, all the little wizards looked at him. They were all attracted

"Good morning everyone, I am your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this semester."

Professor Lupine looked at the little wizards present with a smile on his face.

Although his robes and gowns were a little shabby, his temperament was completely different.

"Now I think you should put your books away, first lesson, let’s do some practice!"

As the words fell, the eyes of many young wizards suddenly lit up.

You must know that Lockhart last year held a book almost all day long and read from the book there every day. Even if there were some practical classes, the practical classes The magic spells taught are also impractical, or very common.

I wonder what the practical classes taught by this new professor will be like?

Following Lu Ping, he came to the inside of the classroom. Many people They all saw a huge cabinet placed in the corner, with various patterns carved on it. It looked a bit old.

Moreover, the cabinet would shake violently from time to time, as if there was something very dangerous inside.

Many little wizards were startled by this chaotic cabinet.

"Professor, do we have to deal with Cornish elves?"

A little wizard in the crowd shouted

"Cornish elves, no, why should we deal with them?"Lu Ping said with some confusion.

"Those elves are very naughty and love to cause mischief, but they are not actually dangerous, and that is not what we teach in Defense Against the Dark Arts!"

Although he didn't understand why he had to deal with those elves, he still explained

"Lockhart taught us how to deal with those troublemakers last term."Harry thought of what happened last year and said somewhat speechlessly,"And in the end he failed, locked us all in the house and ran away."

Is there such a thing?

Lupine's eyes widened and he thought in disbelief.

Gilderoy Lockhart, he knew this predecessor, or in other words, no one in the wizarding world didn't know him.

And recently I heard that Lockhart Hart has already served as the captain of the Auror organization, so he shouldn't be able to deal with a group of elves, right?

"Ahem...Okay, what we have to deal with in this lesson is not those mischievous elves."

Professor Lu Ping calmed down his complicated emotions, and then pointed to the cabinet behind him.

"The creature we are going to deal with today is a magical creature called a boggart"

"I know Boggarts..."

Hermione looked at Lupine who was explaining to them in front, and whispered in Lorn's ear.

"They are shape-shifting magical creatures that feed on human fears to survive. They can also see into your heart and become the thing you fear most!"

Miss Hermione already has a very good knowledge of magical animals.

But——

"That's right, Miss Granger!"

As the voice sounded, Hermione also realized that she didn't know when Professor Lupine stopped explaining.

Lupine looked at Hermione who quickly covered her mouth with a smile, and praised

"Ten points from Gryffindor for your knowledge!"

"So now it's up to you to deal with the Boggart's box!"
