Everyday Players at Hogwarts.

Chapter 275 Lockhart's Failure

Chapter 275 Lockhart's Failure
About 2 hours passed.

"Harry, you're awake so early?"

"How do you like the dress? And the decorations of the room?" said Sirius.

He also came to the living room, preparing to continue arranging the birthday party, and was very surprised to see Harry.

"I like it very much. I almost thought I was in the Herbology classroom." Harry put down the Daily Prophet in his hand.

In the Daily Prophet, there was a handsome wizard who looked dignified even in shackles and showed his eight teeth.

"That's good. Your Potter family has been dealing with flowers and plants for generations. I guess you will like them."

"Even James used to be like that, he just pretended not to be interested because he thought it was unmanly."

"But he changed after fifth grade - in order to get in touch with your mother, he let go of his love for these wonderful plants."

"After all, Herbology is inseparable from Potions, which is what your mother is best at." Sirius said in a nostalgic tone, and then he looked at what Harry put on the table, "Aha, you know."

"Lockhart is a jerk, he's always trying to steal other people's stories and write them into books."

"Molly still talks about him all the time."

"Harry, you don't know that when we cleaned up the old Black house, Molly also came to help. At that time, she held a book called "Gilderoy Lockhart Teaches You How to Get Rid of Pests in Your Home" and kept saying, 'He is amazing. He knows the pests in his home. This is a good book...'"

"But now, look." Sirius spoke a long paragraph in one breath, and it seemed that he had been holding a grudge against Lockhart for a long time.

Harry actually understood this very well, and if Mr. Arthur saw this report, Harry believed that even if Lucius Malfoy was in front of him, he would be happy to give him a hug.

"This should have something to do with you." Harry blinked shrewdly.

"Aha! You guessed it right Harry."

"But don't tell Molly."

“It doesn’t really have much to do with me.”

"Gilderoy Lockhart has been a little out of fashion recently. He has hurriedly written a new book, 'Magic Me', in an attempt to regain his popularity. He is even preparing to apply for the position of professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts."

"You know, because the Daily Prophet has changed its style, our ace reporter Rita Skeeter is preparing to transform, and I happen to know what kind of person Lockhart was when he was a student."

"As the boss, I just gave a push, and Rita Skeeter got a lot of negative information about Lockhart." Sirius said in a flat tone, but from the slightly upturned corners of his mouth, it can be seen that this decision made him very proud.

"What? He's going to apply for a professor position at Hogwarts!" Harry picked up the Daily Prophet angrily and pointed to a page. "Look, this is what he said after drinking the truth serum: 'If people don't think I did all those things, the book won't sell well. Readers won't want to read about an ugly old American wizard, even though he saved a village from werewolves. Putting his picture on the cover is a disaster, and he has no taste in clothes. And the witch who expelled the ghost of Wanlun, she has a cleft mouth!'"

"How dare he, with his expertly cast Oblivion Charm?"

"It seems to me that Dumbledore would certainly not agree," said Harry indignantly.

In his eyes, Hogwarts is his other home. How dare a liar apply for the position of professor!
It would be better to be Voldemort!

"Harry, although I hate Lockhart too."

"But I have to remind you that according to Dumbledore, if it weren't for the existence of the young version of Voldemort, Gilderoy Lockhart might have been the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts." Sirius teased with a weird smile.

"How is this possible!" Harry's voice even became a clip in surprise.

"It's the same reaction I had at the time."

"Dumbledore actually felt that something was wrong with him, but Harry, you know what kind of person Dumbledore is. He would never, and would not, resort to any extra means."

"If there hadn't been that young Voldemort, Dumbledore would have agreed to Lockhart's application." "First, he is a Ravenclaw. Even if his magical ability is not as good, his knowledge is at least rich."

"The second is those stories. At least those stories are true. Lockhart himself has visited and investigated those events in person. At least he can teach you some experience."

"Third, the most important point is the curse in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. For someone like him who already has flaws, the curse will make him receive the punishment he deserves."

"After all, if I hadn't instigated it, Gilderoy Lockhart would have been fined by the Ministry of Magic at most when facing Rita Skeeter's scandals," Sirius explained.

"I understand now. Dumbledore's criteria for finding a professor for Defense Against the Dark Arts," Harry said confidently.

"What rules?" Sirius asked curiously.

For Harry, who had the same face as James, he always felt like he was talking to James.

For Sirius, asking James for his opinion on a matter was a habit engraved in his soul.

"Consumables." Harry said. He looked at Sirius's puzzled expression and emphasized again, "Just find a consumable."

"Perhaps you don't know, Professor Quirrell taught us Defense Against the Dark Arts last semester."

"Dumbledore even saved his salary."

"I think Dumbledore has tasted the sweetness."

"Once Lockhart is caught for the curse in this class, Dumbledore might be able to blackmail him for some money," said Harry seriously.

"Harry, Dumbledore may not be a good man in the true sense. He also has a dark side, but he wouldn't be so shameless as to do this." Sirius said half-doubtfully.

"Sirius, you are wrong."

"People like them are dark wizards. How can we talk about morality with dark wizards!" Harry said angrily.

Somehow, this gave Sirius even stronger feelings for James.

That's what he used to say about Slytherin students.

In the past, although it was Sirius who always started to cause trouble for the Slytherins, James' influence was also a factor behind this.

The same goes for Snape.

There is no shame in fighting against dark wizards together!

This is solidarity for justice!
A power that dark wizards cannot learn!

One-on-one challenge, the opponents challenge the four of them!

A group fight was a group fight between the two sides against all the people that the four of them had brought over!

These are James's famous quotes.

But unfortunately, after fifth grade, James changed.
