Hogwarts: The Witch Education Handbook

The little badgers below the stage looked extremely shocked as they stared at the chessboard that had been reduced to nothing.

They never realized that Professor Snape, who usually looked somewhat gloomy, could be so handsome.

Is the Divine Sword Without a Shadow?

They memorized this cool move.

When they have Potions class, they must ask Professor Snape about the spell for this move.

Then, some of the little badgers who had already realized what was happening stared intently at Professor Sean and the card board in front of him.

What does the professor mean by taking this out...?

This is a hundred times more fun than Wizard Chess!

Thinking about this, some of the little badgers were already drooling... Starting today, their wish list might not only include food, but also this game.

Sean was secretly overjoyed by the reaction from the audience.

Everything is rapidly progressing along the track he envisioned!

He spoke slowly and deliberately to the audience, as if trying to sound profound: "That's right, just as you all thought..."

Before he could finish speaking, the audience erupted in cheers.

"Professor, what's the name of this game?"

"Wizard Killer." Sean had barely answered when a barrage of questions rained down on him from below the stage.

"Professor, I want to play too."

"Professor, how do I play this?"

"Professor, I want to learn this!" One of the chubby boys shouted particularly loudly, his cheeks flushed red, as if he were shouting with all his might.

"Quiet!"

Sean slapped the table, and the noise gradually subsided. Everyone stared at him expectantly.

The way he looked was as if he had seen... a delicious meal that looked and smelled wonderful.

All I can say is that it truly lives up to its name, Badger Academy.

"These cards and the game board are made from alchemical tools. Although mass production has been achieved, the quantity is still very small, so..."

At this point, some people in the audience began to show expressions of disappointment.

This was something Sean did on purpose; he paused to see the expressions of longing and disappointment on the young wizards' faces... was it?

Perhaps it was to make them cherish these alchemical artifacts even more.

"But..." Sean began to change the subject, "Everyone still has a chance to play this game. I'll leave five sets of Wizards vs. Wizards with the class representative. If you want to try, you can register with the class representative. Remember, don't damage the cards or the board!"

"Very good!"

"Long live the professor!"

"But... what is a class representative?" a slightly calmer voice asked, pulling the little badgers back to reality from their excitement.

It seems... Hogwarts has never had a class representative position.

Sean then explained:

"The first duty of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class representative is to assist the teacher in preparing for class. This includes collecting and distributing papers and exams, as well as organizing pre-class preparations."

"Secondly, collect opinions and suggestions. Gather students' opinions and suggestions on the teacher's teaching and reflect them to the teacher."

"Thirdly, help classmates and improve learning. Assist teachers in investigating and understanding the difficulties of struggling students and provide assistance to improve their learning interest and grades."

Fourthly, help students who are struggling. Actively help students who have difficulty learning, supervise them to complete their homework on time, and stop plagiarism.

Fifth, improve your own academic performance. Be strict with yourself, study diligently, improve your grades, and set an example for other students.

"Sixth point..."

"Of course, if there are any other requirements, I will add them at any time."

"If the class representative can meet a few requirements, at the end of the semester, I will add 30 points to his/her college based on his/her work performance throughout the year."

Upon hearing this, the badger cubs reacted in various ways.

Some people thought the above requirements were too cumbersome, but the 30-point reward seemed pretty good, so they showed a somewhat hesitant expression.

Some people are already eager to try their luck and can't wait to raise their hands to get this position that can help them develop themselves and give them an edge.

"Class representatives can frequently come to my office for 'special' tutoring~" As if afraid his offer wasn't enticing enough, Sean added, "Outstanding class representatives can even have their images made into Wizard Killer cards~"

Upon hearing this, the former's hesitant expression vanished instantly.

What?! A chance to be alone with Professor Sean! To have my image made into a wizard card!

They were just a little greedy, but they weren't stupid!

All the little badgers held their hands high, as if afraid Professor Sean wouldn't notice them.

Sean didn't say anything, but took a stack of test papers out of his suitcase.

The little badgers felt a little uneasy looking at the thick stack of test papers, and even their raised hands unconsciously went down.

Sean cleared his throat and spoke slowly.

"As you all know, when you reach fifth grade, you will have to take an exam called the Common Wizarding Level Exam, which is what your older classmates call OWLs."

"This is extremely important to you, it will affect what kind of jobs you apply for in the future... To put it more seriously, this exam will have a huge impact on your lives."

"And our subject, Defense Against the Dark Arts, is one of these twelve examination subjects."

When Sean got to this point, all the young wizards' expressions turned serious.

"There's a saying in the Muggle world: 'Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime.' This saying applies to this exam as well."

"Think about it. Generally, people prepare for the OWLs exams in fifth grade, but if you start preparing two years earlier than them, you'll get better results than others by then."

To motivate his students to study hard and meet their KPIs for the side quests in his cheat device as soon as possible, Sean has started selling anxiety. He even wants the little badgers to sleep with books in their hands, if he could.

"Of course, as a professor, I am just a professor. All I can do is teach you the knowledge in my head. I can't study for you or take the exams for you, so you can only rely on yourselves."

Seemingly afraid of putting too much pressure on the little badgers below, Sean added in a humorous tone.

"You don't need to be too anxious. I guarantee that under my teaching, as long as you study diligently and follow my teaching plan, everyone can achieve good results in the OWLs exams... Of course, I mean if I am fortunate enough to be able to teach you again next year."

After saying that, he tapped a stack of papers next to him with his wand.

The test papers quickly flew to the tables in front of everyone.

"This is a set of papers I prepared, covering all the theoretical foundations of Defense Against the Dark Arts that you've learned since you entered Hogwarts..."

"Don't worry, this is just a preliminary test. I will develop a corresponding study plan and schedule based on each person's test scores."

"There is still more than an hour left in this class. In this hour, I hope you will treat this test with the same attitude as you would a normal exam."

"No whispering, and absolutely no cheating."

Finally, Sean added, "Among those applying for class representative, those with higher grades will be given priority."

The last sentence was like the finishing touch for the little badgers below. They were eager to prove their abilities to Professor Sean, but when their eyes fell on the exam paper...

They were stunned.

During the exam, Sean walked around the classroom.

Standing behind certain students and staring intently at their papers often creates a feeling of unease, making some students so nervous that they even misspelled their own names several times.

The most critical issue was Sean's time reminder.

He would announce every fifteen minutes how much time was left before the exam ended.

This made the little badgers a little puzzled. Had Professor Sean cast some strange spell in this classroom? Why was time passing so quickly?

For students who study diligently, exam time is always short.

The instant get out of class ended, Sean waved his wand.

Regardless of whether the little badgers had finished answering the questions, all the test papers flew onto the teacher's podium.

"The results of this test will be released in the next class, so I'll temporarily have Bonu keep these five sets of Wizard Killer props. If any of you want to play with them, you can register with Bonu."

Sean then took out five more sets of cards and a chessboard from his suitcase and handed them to Bonu before returning to the podium to continue speaking.

"From now on, we will have an exam every month at random times. You will gradually get used to it."

"get out of class dismissed!"
