Hogwarts Homecoming

Those who have studied in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft for several years know that in this school, as long as more than one person knows about a thing, it will spread throughout the school at different speeds depending on how explosive it is. .

And Sirius Black is about to replace Professor Lupine and become the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts for the little wizards in the next few months. Since Harry and Hermione knew about it, it was basically 100% in half an hour since the dinner started. More than 70% of the little wizards have heard of it, and the remaining 30% are mostly students in the fifth and seventh grades. They are about to face the two most important exams in their lives, and they are racing against time to study Woolen cloth!

Sirius Black, half a month ago, was a heinous fugitive, the first wizard in history to successfully escape from Azkaban.

Last school year, so many dementors were stationed at Hogsmeade and the school gate to prevent him, but I didn't expect that in just half a month, the roles of criminals and heroes were switched, and Peter, who had been awarded the Order of Merlin First Class, became a criminal. , and Sirius Black, who stayed in Azkaban for twelve years, became a hero who dared to do something, and now, he actually became their defense against the dark arts professor.

"Damn, what did I miss!"

On the long table in Gryffindor, Ron howled to the sky, annoyed.

On the night of the decisive battle with the werewolf, Ron missed the magical time travel because of his serious injuries, but now, he just went back to the dormitory to get the Firebolt, and he missed such an important thing again.

The rest of the little wizards in Gryffindor didn't know what Ron was losing his temper. They didn't pay attention to him at all. Pairs of wide-eyed eyes fell on the staff table, who was talking to Professor McGonagall Handsome, middle-aged wizard with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

"At Christmas, my grandma was still telling me that if I meet Sirius, I should go up and fight him desperately, even if I die, I can't lose the face of my parents--"

Neville's round cheeks were flushed, and even if his voice was lowered, he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

"Now I really want to hear what she will say when she finds out the news!"

"You can't duel a professor, Neville!"

Harry hadn't closed his mouth much since he heard the news, and his mood was so high that it was as if all the little wizards in the school had cast a happiness spell on him at the same time!

It was so unbelievable that Sirius Black, his godfather, had become a professor at the school, and Harry wanted to crack Dumbledore's head off to see how he'd come up with the idea.

Before, Harry thought that Professor Brian would come forward!

Now, Snape can no longer do whatever he wants, can he?

Unless, he wanted to see Slytherin's stinky earthworms in Defense Against the Dark Arts class treated like Gryffindor's little wizards in Potions class!

Although he didn't really know Sirius before today, Harry was sure that Sirius would take care of Gryffindor students.

Shock, consternation, anger, hatred!

Snape left in a hurry after attending the funeral of Sirius' younger brother, the young hero named Regulus Black. He still didn't know that Sirius had become the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. The discord between them can be seen from the expression on Sirius' face when he walked into the auditorium and sat at the staff table!

"You say—"

Seamus held back his excitement just like Neville,

"It would be cool that he might tell us how he escaped from Azkaban, and if we could learn how to do it, we wouldn't have to be afraid anymore. Of course, I wasn't thinking about getting into Azkaban Caban."

The focus of the next topic became a discussion of how Sirius escaped from Azkaban, although, this matter has been a hot topic in the past year or so.

"Perhaps, Professor Black, like Professor Blaine, has a particularly powerful patron saint. He used that magic to drive away all the dementors!"

Lavender said in surprise.

"Then he'll have to get himself a wand first—"

The empty table was filled with delicious food in an instant. Hermione finally closed the book Professor Brian gave her. Hearing her roommate's unrealistic guesses, she said angrily,

"Also, I don't think there's any point in discussing it—"

The little wizards around, including Harry and Ron, stared at Hermione in surprise, as if she had said something incredible, and Hermione also noticed that she had become the focus of everyone's attention, and she took a deep breath He took a sip, curled his mouth and rolled his eyes, shook his head and said,

"Think about it, no matter how Sirius escaped from Azkaban, the Ministry of Magic will not release him until they find out about it, and they will definitely take corresponding precautions, right? There is no way the loophole is still there, unless the Ministry of Magic wants to see that Azkaban can no longer lock people up!"

Under the astonished gazes of the young wizards at the other three long tables, a sigh erupted from the middle of the Gryffindor long table.

"And I don't understand why you're so excited, Harry—"

Hermione squinted like everyone else, as if she was planning to go to Azkaban to 'learn' Harry in the future, and said helplessly.

"Are you crazy, Hermione, that's Sirius Black, Harry's godfather!"

Ron said in surprise,

"I bet he will treat Malfoy the same way that old bat Snape treats Harry. We've waited so many years for such a 'hero' to appear, and even Professor Bryan won't help us like that !"

Harry nodded frantically.

"Don't forget—"

Hermione glanced at Sirius on the staff table,

"He's the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and the professor of this class... We all know that for some reason, accidents are always particularly prone to accidents!"

The smile faltered on Harry's face, and now, to his chagrin, it was him.

"Damn it, I forgot about it!"

Harry slapped his forehead and said,

"Sirius has been wrongly locked up by the Ministry of Magic for so many years, he must not know the situation. Tell me, should I remind him!"

"Take it easy, brother!"

Ron frowned and said,

"We all know that the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts doesn't live simply, but it's not without accidents, is it?"

"You mean, Professor Blaine?" Harry's eyes lit up.

"certainly!"

Looking at Professor Brian, who was smiling at the staff table, elegantly cutting the lamb chops, Ron said thoughtfully,

"If it wasn't for Sirius, we might never have figured out Scabbers--"

Thinking of Peter who had been lurking beside him, Ron turned pale and shivered a few times.

"We certainly can't just sit and watch Sirius follow in Professor Lupin's footsteps, right, Harry, if I were you, I would go to Professor Bryan and ask him how he avoided those misfortunes!"

Amosta, who was having dinner, suddenly felt a few pairs of enthusiastic gazes on him, he looked up calmly, and found that it was Harry who were staring at him with burning eyes, he frowned. He picked it up, guessing why these guys who were especially good at coming were staring at him again, but then, he shook his head again, not bothering to guess.

At the staff table, the vast majority of professors welcome the sudden appearance of Sirius Black on their team, with exceptions of course.

When Sirius was still studying in this school, Professor McGonagall was already the dean of Gryffindor. In those years, no one knew better than Professor McGonagall how much trouble Sirius’s small team caused. I was happy that Sirius did not betray the Potters, but when I thought of Sirius becoming the professor of the little wizards, I felt blocked for a while.

And Snape needless to say.

The "teammates" who fought against Greyback and his werewolves together are nothing compared to the grievances they once forged.

It is true that Sirius did not betray Lily, but Snape did not forget that it was Sirius who foolishly suggested that Lily was killed, and Sirius, who was good at communicating, also learned something about Severus's past few years from the chat. It was for James and Lily's son.

To be honest, because of these new and old hatreds, the two of them might have already fought in another occasion. Even here, the two of them who inadvertently met their eyes could feel the naked hostility in each other's eyes!

Ding ding ding!

Just when Sirius was nagged by Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore tapped the glass with a silver spoon in a timely manner. When the noise in the auditorium gradually subsided, Dumbledore responded with a smile on the face of hundreds of flashing lights. eyes of light,

"Allow me to introduce our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor—"

Dumbledore blinked playfully and said happily,

"But I suppose you're already familiar with him, aren't you?"
