Hogwarts professor in Marvel

So, I gave up on this little trick.

After all, this kind of heresy is okay with occasional temptations, but you have to use some upright methods later.

Soon, when Rita Skeeter said almost.

Editor Cotton clapped softly, and Rita Skeeter took the opportunity to sit back in her seat.

"Deputy Editor Rita's speech makes a lot of sense. We should unite and work together to make the Daily Prophet stronger." Editor-in-Chief Cotton said.

Then, he said to Rita in a tone that seemed to be negotiating but was actually unquestionable: "Deputy Editor-in-Chief Rita, you just arrived, so you can manage the photography department first. If you feel that your energy allows, you can also take care of logistics."

"what do you think?"

Rita's face darkened when she heard what Cotton said.

She used to be a reporter at the Daily Prophet, so how could she not know the tricks of the various organizations involved?

The photography department basically does not have much status, and the logistics department might as well be called the miscellaneous affairs department. All kinds of miscellaneous matters are handled by the logistics department, and not only are the affairs complicated, but it also does not make much sense.

For these two non-core departments, she instinctively wanted to refuse. As the deputy editor-in-chief, she did not want to be able to manage the entire Daily Prophet.

At least one core department must be in charge.

Otherwise, her position as deputy editor-in-chief would be just a figurehead, with no say at all.

However, Peggy Carter, who observed the situation through the contract, seemed to have sensed Rita's thoughts and spoke quickly.

"Rita, agree to it. These two parts will be very helpful for our subsequent plans."

Feeling the message conveyed by the Golden Dragon Magic Mark, Rita remained silent for a moment, then nodded slightly to Editor-in-Chief Cotton.

However, he still said, "Editor-in-Chief Cotton, it's no problem for me to manage these two departments."

“However, it has been mentioned before at the board meeting.”

"The Daily Prophet will establish a new department under my charge, which will be responsible for interviewing famous figures in the wizarding world."

"For example, our Hogwarts headmaster Dumbledore and the founder of meditation Lockhart, etc."

"Editor-in-Chief Cotton, I would like to recruit some editors and reporters to join our department. Is that okay with you?"

Editor-in-Chief Cotton felt a bit of a headache when he heard Rita's request.

This department was created at the request of the pure-blood family behind the Daily Prophet, and Rita was directly named as the person in charge.

He was not stupid. Considering what had happened some time ago, he could tell with his feet that this was definitely aimed at the meditation method.

It seems that the pure-blood family has not given up yet.

He was very disgusted with such behavior, which was simply making a joke of the future of the Daily Prophet.

For a newspaper, fairness and objectivity are the most important elements.

Even if Rita Skeeter distorted the report in the newspaper before, it only represents her personal opinion and has nothing to do with the Daily Prophet.

In order to reduce potential risks, Cotton did not deliberately suppress reporters' positive reports on Lockhart and meditation.

So during that period, there were people praising and people scolding, and it caused quite a commotion.

But there was almost no loss for the Daily Prophet, and its reputation and profits even increased significantly.

But if Rita Skeeter was in charge of this column, he could imagine what would happen given her ability to distort the news.

This column will definitely affect the future and reputation of the Daily Prophet.

But there was no way. The board of directors behind him approved the decision and he had no way to obstruct it. He could only reduce its impact from the side.

So he didn't even mention it in this meeting, planning to slowly suppress it later.

But now that Rita Skeeter had said it directly, he couldn't refuse openly.

After a moment's silence, Editor-in-Chief Cotton said coldly, "Okay, Ms. Rita Skeeter."

"Later, you can recruit some voluntary editors to join the department you are in charge of."

After hearing this, Rita had a faint smile on her face, and the words her master had said emerged in her mind.

"Rita, pure-blood families influence every aspect of the wizarding world, and public opinion is a crucial link."

"And the Daily Prophet can be said to be the mouthpiece of the Pure-Blood Family. Go over there and use the power of the Pure-Blood Family to control it."

“It will play a huge role at the critical moment.”

..........

Hogwarts, Defense Against the Dark Arts Office.

Lockhart sat at the desk, reviewing the information just transmitted by the Golden Dragon Magic Brand, with a smile on his face.

He had seen the power of public opinion in his previous life.

Black can be said to be white!

If you don't act in advance, it will be too late.

As his thoughts turned, Lockhart focused his eyes on the black notebook on the desk.

He closed his eyes slightly, and the ring on his right hand began to glow slightly. He concentrated his mind and gathered his energy, and his soul leaped up.

Magic - Soul Body Projection!

In an instant, Lockhart's soul left his body, looked around the office, looked at the black notebook in front of him - Voldemort's Horcrux, and threw himself in.

The scene changed, and in an instant, Lockhart entered a spacious space.

Tom stood in the center of the space, with large pieces of text, runes and numbers appearing in front of him. As Tom's fingers lightly outlined, new text and runes were constantly added to enrich the content.

"Professor Lockhart, you're here." Tom, sensing the movement in the space, quickly turned around and said to Lockhart who was walking over.

"Yeah." Lockhart nodded indifferently and looked at the words floating in the air.

Tom, who was standing by, saw it and quickly introduced: "Professor, this is the analysis of the Crushing Curse."

"At present, most of it has been analyzed. I believe that it will be able to be performed through Runefuln's method soon."

Lockhart nodded slightly, without replying, but his eyes remained fixed on the text in front of him, scanning it quickly and deducing it.

After a moment, he opened his mouth and typed, "Okay, Tom, keep working hard. I won't let anyone who makes an effort down."

"Even if the other party is just a...broken soul."

After Tom heard it, his heart skipped a beat, broken soul, he won't find any traces outside, right?

Before he could think deeply, Lockhart's voice came to his ears again.

"By the way, Tom, how is your soul meditation practice going?"

Tom thought for a moment and said in a delighted tone: "Professor, meditation is very effective."

“I can feel my soul slowly improving and becoming more stable.”

"For the entire soul illusion space, the level of control has been enhanced, and deeper changes can be carried out."

Hearing Tom's reply, Lockhart nodded slightly and said, "In that case, then have a good rest."

The next moment, Lockhart seemed to have thought of something and asked Tom meaningfully: "Tom, ask a question."

"I've been researching recently, how can I perfectly resurrect myself?"

"Tell me, if after resurrection, a bunch of other memories appear in your mind, are you sure it is you who is resurrected?"

"Make sure your will at that time is your will now."

When Tom heard Professor Lockhart's question, his heart skipped a beat. He was almost certain that the other party knew the identity of his real Horcrux.

Then, Lockhart continued, "I think there is a saying that goes, I think, therefore I am."

"It doesn't matter if you just have a few more memories, but you must make sure that your will and your way of thinking have not changed."

"If after resurrection, the mind is distorted and the thinking is changed, then is the so-called resurrection your resurrection or his resurrection?"

"How do you agree with my idea?"

Lockhart's words seemed to awaken a thought hidden deep in Tom's heart. After a long silence, he said in a hoarse voice: "Professor, I need to think about this question carefully."

Seeing Tom's reaction, Lockhart raised the corner of his mouth and said as if suggesting: "Yes, this question is very interesting. We should really think about it more."

"Otherwise, everything you do will become someone else's wedding dress, which is not good."

"When you think of the answer, remember to tell me."

In response, Tom nodded silently, looking a little gloomy.

Seeing this, Lockhart smiled faintly and turned away.

Tom watched Lockhart's departing figure, his eyes revealing a thoughtful look.

At the same time, a voice came from a distance.

"By the way, Tom, I remember you were in this notebook 50 years ago."

"You may not be aware of the changes that have taken place in the wizarding world in the past 50 years."

"I brought a book with me. It contains all the big and small things that happened over the years. You can read it when you have nothing to do."

PS: Dear readers, the average subscription has been dropping by 20 to 30 per day recently, and it has dropped by almost 200 to 300.

My mentality has been a little broken, and I am afraid to even look at the data.

I request the big guys to support the genuine subscription. If the big guys who are still supporting the books can support it after seeing this, it would be great.

The humble author is asking for support online.

(For now, I will try the two-in-one chapter to see if I can save some of the crazy downward trend in average subscriptions.)

Chapter 274 Draco: Harry Potter, We... (Two in One)

Defense Against the Dark Arts Office.

Lockhart was leaning back in his chair, with a half-opened black notebook on the desk.

The entire office was quiet except for the slight chirping of cicadas outside the window.

suddenly...

The surface of the black notebook flickered faintly, and a transparent figure walked out of it and then merged into the body on the chair.

Soon, Lockhart opened his eyes, looked at the notebook in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

Tom's talent, especially in the dark arts, is among the best among all the wizards he has ever seen.

Otherwise, Voldemort would not have become the second Dark Lord.

But talent is talent after all, and monetizing it is the right way.

Tom is currently of little use other than research.

More importantly, Tom now shows signs of slacking off and even going for broke.

In his opinion, a lot of research could have been completed ahead of schedule, but the time for delivering the results was delayed.

And he usually behaves very seriously. To be more precise, he behaves very hard every time he goes to watch, just like he did just now.

This made Lockhart want to find an excuse to teach him a lesson, but he couldn't find an excuse.

Giving him a lesson without reason will only dampen his enthusiasm.

So, we have to find another way to stimulate him.

Resurrection, in his opinion, was the most suitable option.

Moreover, after resurrection, with a little training, he can become a top combat force again, which is equivalent to another increase in monetization.

Help yourself with research in normal times and help yourself fight when something goes wrong.

Simply...perfect!

As for betrayal, well, did he think his golden dragon magic mark was just there for nothing?

Of course, he couldn't just resurrect Voldemort.

But it is still possible to resurrect Tom who is still in school.

The other party's memory and cognition are all from the time he was studying at Hogwarts. Although his mentality is a bit cruel, he is very rational and knows what to do and what not to do.

He is nothing like the future Voldemort, who drove himself a little crazy because of his crazy soul splitting and Horcrux making.
