Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

Something familiar.

"Padma," Michael asked casually, "Did you see Wade and Hermione when you went to Divination class?"

"Of course!" Padma gave him a strange look and said, "They chose all the courses, including divination."

Michael took a deep breath: "Is that so..."

It turns out...it's really time...

Chapter 332 Professor Bubbage and Muggle Studies

In the afternoon, the first thing that Wade and his classmates had to attend was the Muggle Studies class.

In the past, this course was not very popular among students. Most wizards were unwilling to spend time to understand another group in the world, and some even felt that there was no need for the school to offer such a course.

Muggle-born students also did not feel the need to take this class, and some of the content in the textbook even made them feel offensive.

Listen - Muggle Studies... as if Muggles are some brainless wild animals.

But last semester, Professor Abigail's course made many students realize that Muggles are not as pitiful, weak, and stupid as they thought. As a result, more and more people chose to take this course, including a few Slytherin students.

Professor Kheridi Bubaji, who teaches the course, was delighted.

She had golden hair and smiled as she watched the students approach the professor, then clapped her hands.

"Welcome - welcome, children! Welcome to my class!"

Professor Bubbage said happily: "This is the first time that so many students have chosen the Muggle Studies course. Let me see... there are a total of 28 students! I am so happy that there are so many children in the wizarding world who want to learn all kinds of knowledge about Muggles!"

"I know that some of you may have received some wrong ideas in the past. Someone may have told you that Muggles are stupid and despicable. But in fact, there are also very smart, noble and brave people among Muggles."

"Perhaps someone has also told you that Muggles are cruel and murderous, and that wizards are persecuted by Muggles. This is also wrong - there are good and bad Muggles among them."

"There is not much difference between Muggles and wizards. We should respect them and treat them equally. This is also good for the development of our wizards..."

Professor Bubaji was talking in front, but some students looked disdainful.

"I guess I made a mistake taking this class."

Millicent, a Slytherin, said to the people around her, "What the hell is this professor talking about? Muggles don't even know the existence of magic. They are ridiculously stupid. How can they be the same as us?"

Her companion nodded and agreed, "I came here to learn about those terrible weapons. Who would want to know how Muggles live at home?"

The textbook for this class is "Family Life and Social Habits of British Muggles".

Millicent flipped through the textbook casually and saw that the color pages inside were printed with things like driver's licenses, electric lights, washing machines, televisions, cars, etc., but there was not even a gun. She snorted in disdain.

Professor Bubbage said: "Now, let's turn to page five and learn how Muggle families are established..."

The sound of flipping pages could be heard in the classroom, but some students did not move at all.

Their dissatisfaction was almost written on their faces, but Professor Bubaji didn't see it. She was carefully unfolding a few pieces of paper, enlarging them and sticking them on the blackboard so that all the students could see them clearly.

"The establishment of a family, of course, begins with a loving marriage. If a Muggle wants to get married, it not only requires a wedding, but also registration with the government department."

"These are the documents they need to submit when registering - birth certificate, driver's license, bills, and if they are foreign Muggles, they also need to provide their passports. After registering the marriage, the Muggle government will give them a marriage certificate..."

"Colleges and marriage are important bonds for forming families. I really hope that in the future more wizards will marry Muggles and werewolves. This way we will have a deeper understanding of each other and reduce the possibility of war..."

"Gah-"

Professor Bubaji was speaking happily when a very harsh noise suddenly sounded in the classroom.

Millicent deliberately pushed the chair away very hard and slowly stood up. Professor Bubbage looked at her in astonishment.

"Professor, I'm not feeling well. Can I ask for leave?" Millicent said coldly, "I think I need to go to the school infirmary."

She didn't seem to be feeling unwell at all. Professor Bubag said hesitantly, "Okay... okay..."

As soon as he finished speaking, four or five students stood up in the classroom.

"Professor, I'm not feeling well either."

"I have a stomach ache."

"I need to go to the bathroom, Professor."

"I want to go throw up... maybe because I feel a little nauseous after hearing about werewolves?"

The few of them made a perfunctory excuse, packed up their things, and left with Millicent without waiting for the professor's permission.

They had all but dropped their Muggle Studies textbooks.

The other students stared at their backs. Some of them looked interested, but after looking at the professor, they still didn't dare to stand up.

Professor Bubaji had obviously never encountered such a situation before. She watched helplessly as a group of students left the class on their own initiative within less than ten minutes, not knowing what to do.

"professor."

Hermione, who was sitting in the front, raised her hand. Professor Bubbage looked over in panic and asked, "Granger, are you feeling unwell too?"

"It's time to get on with the lecture, Professor," Hermione reminded.

She looked tired, but there was a stubborn determination in her expression that calmed Professor Bubaji down.

"Hmm... um... yes, let's look at this picture... This is a driver's license. Muggles have to go through complicated studies and exams before they can get this piece of paper and drive..."

Professor Bubaji stammered on, taking several minutes to regain his composure.

She knows more about Muggles than most wizards, and seems to have lived in Muggle society for quite some time.

But unfortunately, this professor's lectures were dry and he only talked about trivial matters in life. His level of boredom was only slightly more than that of the ghost professor Binns.

"To be honest, I actually want to leave too."

Michael lowered his voice and said to Wade:

"I finished reading this book during the summer vacation. Apart from the interesting part about electricity, the rest of the content simply treats the readers as fools. My mother is a Muggle, and she thought it was a joke book!"

"Weid, you definitely know more about Muggles than I do. Don't you find it boring? How about we submit the application together after class and give up this course?"

Although the course selection application was submitted last semester, students still have a second chance to make their choice during the first week of school.

After a full school year, before the start of the fourth grade, students can also re-select courses. Not only can they give up the courses they have already selected, but they can also choose courses that they have not selected before.

Wade actually thought that Muggle Studies was boring, but if he had not taken all the courses, the Time-Turner would never have come into his hands.

He shook his head: "If you want to give up, go ahead and apply, but I will continue to study."

Michael looked at him, his eyes sweeping over the golden chain that suddenly appeared around Wade's neck.

Chapter 333: Cancelled Care of Magical Creatures

Gold necklace...

Wade is not someone who likes to wear jewelry on himself, even though he can afford all kinds of expensive gems and gold.

At the same time, Michael noticed that Hermione seemed to have the same thing hidden in her school robes.

"Forget it then." He folded his arms and put his chin on them, leaning on the table and muttering, "If I leave, you will have to sit here alone? That's too pitiful."

Wade smiled, reached into his bag and pulled out a book as thick as a brick and placed it on the table.

"If you're bored, you can watch this."

"what is this?"

Michael sat up straight and said disdainfully as he flipped through the pages: "Encyclopedia? It sounds no different from 'The Family Life and Social Habits of British Muggles'!"

But as soon as he opened the catalog, his attention was attracted.

The book that Vader gave to Michael was actually a children's encyclopedia, a birthday present given to Vader by a friend of his father two years ago. It began with the Big Bang, the Milky Way, nebulae, and galaxies, and was accompanied by colorful illustrations and concise, easy-to-understand explanations.

There are also natural sciences, humanities and history, social changes, and technological development at the end. Each part is written in an interesting and eye-catching way.

Michael quickly became addicted to it and unknowingly forgot about time and his previous intention to leave.

Wade took advantage of this time to finish all the homework left over from the morning classes.

His schoolbag looked ordinary on the outside, but it was actually another form of wardrobe space. The Traceless Extension Charm expanded the space inside to be comparable to the school auditorium, and Wade stuffed all his books into it.

The writing "school bag" is actually a portable library on the go.

When he was writing a paper and looking up information, he only needed to reach into his schoolbag and then cast a silent flying spell to get the book he wanted.

When the bell rang, Michael reluctantly closed the book and asked, "Can you lend me this book? I've only read a dozen pages."

"Hold on."

Wade touched the cover of the book with his wand, copied the same book, left the original to Michael, and took the copy to find Professor Bubbage.

Michael had just managed to stuff the large tome into his crowded bag when he saw Wade coming back from the front of the classroom.

He raised an eyebrow. “You want Professor Bubaji to teach this encyclopedia instead? I heard her original textbook is nearly ten years old.”

"That's why we need to change. History of Magic is enough as a boring class."

Wade said, "Also, there are many mistakes in the original textbook. The author actually doesn't have a deep understanding of Muggles. As you said, it's not bad to read it as a joke book."

"Did Professor Bubagi agree?" Michael asked.

"After I told him what I thought, I left the book behind and left." Wade sighed and said, "I think Professor Bubbaji might need to cry secretly for a while after we all leave."

"Uh..." Michael was stunned for a moment before he said, "Actually, it's normal for Millicent and the others to leave on the spot. No matter what, marrying a werewolf is still too outrageous."

"I remember you liked Remus very much," Vader said.

"Remus is Remus and a werewolf is a werewolf."

Michael said objectively: "I know what most werewolves are like - vulgar, violent, barbaric, full of hatred for wizards. I heard that they used to attack children and women at night."

"Remus is a special case. He cannot represent all werewolves. And if Remus had a daughter, do you think he would be willing to let his daughter marry a werewolf again?"

Vader said nothing.

He thought of Will, the werewolf who betrayed Remus' kindness, and Claire, who was resistant to her werewolf identity.

Even among werewolves themselves, few can accept their own identity.

From this perspective, Professor Bubaji's idea is bizarrely naive.

After Muggle Studies, the next class is Care of Magical Creatures.
