Hogwarts: Who made her a professor?

Chapter 456 Waiting for an Unexpected Event

When Belvina rushed back to Hogwarts, there were only ten minutes left before evening classes began.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom was already filled with anxious students who had heard about Professor Black's changes from the fifth-year students.

After a day of dissemination and fermentation, the news of Professor Black's sudden change in style spread like wildfire throughout the campus, and even by Hogwarts standards, the speed of dissemination was astonishing.

When Belvina rushed into the classroom, the whispering students immediately fell silent, each one looking nervously at the new professor, as if afraid that Belvina would transform into Professor McGonagall or Snape.

However, Belvina is not skilled in human transformation, nor is she a disguise magus, and she does not have the habit of carrying compound potions with her, so the students' worries are unnecessary.

Furthermore, younger students do not need to consider the 0.WL and NEWT exams for the time being, so there is no need to be too strict with them. It is better to make learning fun.

Learning by doing — no, it's learning through play, playing while learning.

The students enjoy their classes, and Belvina can save time and effort—why not?

In order to complete the teaching tasks for the lower grades, Belvina asked someone to bring in many dark magic creatures, such as red hats,

Like Grindelwald and Hinkpunk.

These dark magic creatures are relatively common and quite dangerous, often attacking humans. Among them, the most dangerous is the five-legged monster that lives in the northernmost part of Scotland and likes to eat people.

In addition to the potentially dangerous dark magic creatures, Belvina also prepared some relatively easy-to-learn self-defense spells, such as the Barrier Charm, Binding Charm, and Armor Charm, which are all relatively easy to master.

When it comes to defensive magic, Belvina has to bring up her past view that Hogwarts' education is seriously flawed.

For chestnut:

The Ironclad Charm is a spell that can resist a variety of spells. It can create a magical barrier to deflect spells or physical entities, thereby protecting specific people and areas.

It can be said that the Ironclad Charm is one of the most frequently used spells in wizard duels, and it is the foundation of defensive magic, the most fundamental of all.

However, many adult wizards, and even employees of the Ministry of Magic, cannot even recite a decent armor charm.

Belvina knew that people couldn't be compared, but she really couldn't understand why so many adult wizards couldn't even use the medium-difficulty Armor Charm!

Is this due to the vast differences between people, or is there a problem with Hogwarts' education?

Now, with her magically powered bull Belvina as a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, she can use her classes to conduct experiments and determine whether the large gap in magical abilities is a problem with people or with education.

The night was cool with autumn rain, and the raindrops pattered against the windowpane as Belvina's experiment began.

The students in the classroom soon discovered that the new school year's Defense Against the Dark Arts was not as boring as the fifth-year students had described, and Professor Black was not strict either.

As the students strode down the empty corridor after class, they were still discussing the dark magic creature they had just learned about, called "Kaba."

Kaba is a type of water monster commonly found in Japan and Mongolia. It looks like a scaly monkey and often stays in ponds to attack passersby.

The method to deal with Kaba is very simple, so simple that you don't even need to use magic. Just prepare a cucumber and throw it at Kaba.

If they can trick Kaba into bowing, the water in the hole above Kaba's head will flow out, and they will lose their power.

Of course, holding Kaba upside down will achieve the same effect.

The younger students returned to their respective common room while excitedly discussing Kaba's fondness for cucumbers.

After a busy day, Belvina finally got to rest. Feeling completely drained, she collapsed onto the bed and drifted off to sleep to the sound of rain outside the window, without even changing her coat.

Hopefully, there's no Ministry of Magic or Hogwarts in Belvina's dream, nor is there Kaba (the boy) who likes to eat cucumbers.

The next morning, the weather was just as gloomy as the day before, and the drizzle continued to fall.

Another day began for the magically powered high-ranking bull-horse. Belvina's schedule was exactly the same as the previous day: first, she taught students at the school, and then she rushed to the Ministry of Magic to handle political affairs.

They call it handling political affairs, but most of the problems are actually messes made by idle people, such as sewage backflow in Muggle toilets or Muggles buying biting teapots from strangely dressed freaks.

In addition, some unscrupulous merchants hoarded goods and tried to make a fortune during the chaotic situation. They not only inflated prices, but also sold counterfeit and shoddy defensive items in the market, causing many wizard families to complain.

Meanwhile, Voldemort, the Ministry of Magic's true nemesis, remains elusive even at the age of seventy, leaving the Ministry with no way to deal with him.

Then there are the Death Eaters, led by Lucius Malfoy, who completely disregard the Ministry of Magic's ultimatum, continuing to hide while having their families publicly denounce the Ministry's misconduct.

Fortunately, the public was not swayed by public opinion this time. Instead of attacking the Ministry of Magic as Malfoy had hoped, they urged the Ministry to act quickly and bring Malfoy and others who refused to be summoned to justice.

The public's wishes and demands are good, and the Ministry of Magic and the Department of Magical Law Enforcement are very willing to meet them, but Malfoy and his associates are like clay oxen sinking into the sea, unable to find their hiding place at all.

The Department of Magical Law Enforcement has never given up its surveillance of Malfoy and his family, but the results have been less than ideal; the Strikers and the Law Enforcement Team have found no suspicious traces.

It felt as if Voldemort had decided to test his patience against the Ministry of Magic, to see whose patience would run out first, and whose nerves would snap first.

Belvina couldn't come up with any decent solution, so she could only take it one step at a time.

That evening, exhausted from a long day, Belvina dragged her weary and heavy body back to Hogwarts, but she couldn't rest yet; she still needed to teach her students.

There are seven days in a week, and Belvina teaches students every morning and evening, without even resting on weekends. In fact, the weekend schedule is even more packed than the weekday schedule, because the school has seven grades!

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Belvina will continue this seven-day-a-week schedule for a long time, until she is defeated by Voldemort's curse, or until she plucks out Dumbledore's white beard and leaves Hogwarts in a huff.

Before that, Belvina had to work like a beast of burden, even having to face the resentful looks of her students.

Adults are unwilling to work overtime on weekends, students are unwilling to attend classes on weekends, and wizards are no exception.

Students whose weekends and holidays are taken up are unhappy, but they have nowhere to voice their grievances. Students at school can only be assigned tasks, unless they stage a protest like they did a few years ago.

However, Belvina Black and Gilderoy Lockhart are fundamentally different. She did not have her students perform plays in class. Instead, she was very responsible and the students could not find a valid reason to march except to take up their weekend holidays.

Besides, Belvina would love for students to block the auditorium entrance and cause trouble. If students don't want to attend classes on weekends, does she really want that?

And so, the Defense Against the Dark Arts course proceeded haltingly amidst the resentment of both the professor and the students.

As time went by, the weather grew colder day by day.

During this period, Belvina worked from dawn till dusk every day, and the 996 work schedule was a blessing for her.

For the first time in her life, Belvina was incredibly excited about Halloween Eve, because every Halloween since 1991 had been marred by some kind of mishap.

In 1991, Quirinus Quirrell, who had Voldemort glued to the back of his head, unleashed a troll, causing chaos at that year's Halloween party and forging a close friendship between Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

In 1992, Defense Against the Dark Arts professor Gilderoy Lockhart did nothing wrong, and the Halloween party was not disrupted, but Voldemort's diary opened the Chamber of Secrets and released the Basilisk, and Filch's cat was petrified.

In 1993, Sirius Black, who had escaped from Azkaban, sneaked into the school and attempted to enter the Gryffindor common room. However, he was stopped by the dorm supervisor, Mrs. Black. Sirius fled in panic, while Mrs. Black was disfigured and suffered psychological trauma.

On the eve of Halloween in 1994, the three top magic schools in Europe gathered together to watch the Goblet of Fire select the Triwizard Tournament champions. However, the Goblet of Fire selected four champions, and Harry, who was fourteen years old at the time, became the first unofficial champion in hundreds of years.

Therefore, Belvina secretly hoped that there would be another surprise on the eve of Halloween this year. The surprise didn't need to be too big, just enough to change Dumbledore's mind.
