The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

Avoid getting yourself into St. Mungo's.

In other words, for Li Weide, no matter what kind of spell it is, it can be used to defeat him...

Although it feels frustrating to think this way, but... it also proves a point very well.

That is, honing the wizard's own skills and abilities is much more important than practicing more powerful spells!

"No wonder... When Vader was practicing duels with me, he never commented on how well I cast my spells. Instead, he always criticized my casting rhythm, my pace, and so on..."

Tom looked dejectedly at the ceiling. "It turns out I've been working in the wrong direction for so long... I should be focusing on improving myself, not on learning all sorts of fancy magic... I'm thinking about running before I've even learned to walk... I'm biting off more than I can chew..."

Although black magic is powerful, it is very difficult to learn.

And for Tom of this age, there is a long lead-in time when casting spells.

Once the battle begins, a huge flaw will be revealed.

In this case, it would be better to learn some defensive spells with fast casting speed first, such as the Disarming Spell, as a transition.

Then hone your skills well. Even if you can't increase your magic power for the time being, your combat effectiveness will definitely be much stronger than it is now!

In a duel, casting speed and reaction ability are very important.

The spellcasting is too complicated, which actually drags down the overall spellcasting efficiency!

Looking back, Li Weide actually pointed out this problem often when he was practicing with himself.

But at that time, I thought Li Weide was worried that I had learned too much magic and would soon surpass him, so I ignored his words...

Now that I think about it, I was being ungrateful...

It turned out that the look in Li Weide's eyes when he looked at him at that time was not one of fear, but... the look of a fool...

Thinking of this, Tom's old face suddenly turned red.

Damn, why am I so stupid!

After thinking it through, Tom suddenly had a lot of new ideas in his mind!

"After dinner, can you practice magic with me?" Tom asked suddenly eagerly.

"Ah? Me? I don't know magic!" Old Tom said in surprise.

"No problem... As long as you can throw rocks, it'll be fine! Although the rocks fly much slower than spells, they can simulate actual combat and help me improve my fighting style!"

"Is that so... That's good, it's a good opportunity to move around after dinner." Old Tom finally agreed to his son's request.

Just think of it as playing a game with your son.

……

Dorset.

Newt and Levid sneaked out of the house early in the morning.

Then, in the woods next to the house, a huge magical animal was released from the suitcase!

This is a big cat with colorful patterns on its body and its tail is longer than its body.

It was the Zouwu that Newt rescued that year.

Newt originally planned to release it back into the wild, but the Zouwu stuck to Newt and refused to leave.

So, Newt had to keep it until now.

"Don't be nervous. Although the Zouwu looks ferocious, it's actually a very gentle animal. Of course, you also have to be careful with your words and actions, so as not to let it feel hostile..."

Before Newt could finish his words, he saw Livid take out a cat toy from his pocket.

Newt: ...

Li Weide had already exchanged a talent for affinity with magical animals from the system mall.

Therefore, when Zou Wu saw him for the first time, he only felt friendly and of course would not do anything aggressive towards him.

Plus the cat toy that Li Weide took out...

In just a few minutes, the big cat fell completely in love with Li Weide.

The speed at which Levid dealt with this magical animal was so fast that even Newt was shocked...

You know, he hasn't told Li Weide how to deal with Zou Wu!

Moreover, he had never seen Zou Wu become familiar with others so quickly!

It was so fast that even Newt was a little jealous.

"How do you know..." Newt pointed at Levid's cat toy.

"Ah? You told me." Li Weide smiled.

"Me? I didn't tell you..." Newt was confused.

"Have you forgotten your own book? I bought the latest edition of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and memorized it completely. You describe in detail how to deal with various magical beasts in the book... I admire you so much! No one else can write a book like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them except you!"

Levitra gave Newt a lot of compliments. Although Newt tried hard to hide it, the upturned corners of his mouth could not conceal the slight pride in his heart.

"Actually...it's not as good as you say..."

"No, no, no, your book is really good! It's hard to imagine how many people will be able to escape from the clutches of those dangerous magical animals because of your book! It's simply a great deed! I wish I could write such a book! It would help so many people..." Li Weide was really envious this time.

If he had written a useful book like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, his daily merit points would have definitely skyrocketed!

Of course, St. Mungo's provided him with a lot of merit points, but the rate of increase was still a bit slow. It seemed that the healers had not yet fully mastered some of his new treatment methods.

"You can do it too! I'm also surprised by your talent in Magizoology!" Newt said happily.

"Really? But I feel it's just normal..."

After the two of them praised each other's business for a while, they finally remembered the real business.

After climbing onto Zou Wu's back, he ran deep into the forest.

Newt hid the depressed fire dragon deep in the forest.

In fact, Levid felt that Newt was very bold. How could he let such a fire-breathing creature be released into the forest?

Soon, Zuo Wu carried the two people to the depths of the forest and stood on a small hill.

"The dragon is over there." Newt said, pointing into the distance.

In fact, even if Newt didn't point it, Levid could see the huge fire dragon's body.

However, after seeing the fire dragon, Li Weide finally understood why he was not worried that the fire dragon would set the forest on fire.

Really... that fire dragon looked completely depressed... It just lay there motionless, not even wanting to raise its head, let alone spit fire...

"Hiss... wait... is there a person next to the fire dragon?" Li Weide suddenly asked.

"Hmm?" Newt looked over immediately. Sure enough, there was a person squatting in front of the dragon's nose...

"Ah? This is too dangerous! Although the fire dragon is depressed now, no one knows when it will spit fire!" Newt was anxious. He completely forgot what he said before about just watching the fire dragon from a distance, and directly urged Zou Wu to rush towards the fire dragon.

Chapter 188: Nine Years Old?

Newt rushed over and forgot his promise to watch the dragon from a safe distance.

Of course, Li Weide would not remind him, because he originally wanted to find a reason to observe some fire dragons up close.

However, given Newt's personality, he would still rush forward even if Levid reminded him.

However, he might put Li Weide down before charging.

In front of the huge body of the fire dragon.

The man squatted motionless in front of the fire dragon's nose.

Newt was worried that his shouting would cause the dragon to have a stress reaction, so he didn't dare to shout loudly.

He could only control Zouwu and run quickly to the side of that person.

"Hey! Are you trying to kill yourself? Get out of there!" Newt shouted in a low voice as he got closer.

The man turned around and took a look. When he saw the Zouwu under Newt, his beetle-like black eyes suddenly lit up!

"What a beautiful big cat!" the man exclaimed.

When Newt saw his face clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned.

When this person stood up, he was two heads taller than Newt, but his face looked very childish...

His body is taller and stronger than an adult, but his face looks like a child.

This confused Newt. He asked blankly, "How old are you?"

"Me? I'm nine years old this year... I will be ten after my birthday in December..." The man made a simple and childish voice.

Newt and Levid looked at each other. Nine years old?

Then Newt looked at Levid as if he had seen a ghost.

"Vader! Why are you here?!" Newt said in shock.

Li Weide blinked and said, "Didn't you bring me here?"

"Ah..." Newt was going crazy.

He was so anxious just now that he forgot about Li Weide!

He should have put Li Weide down first and then approached the fire dragon!

Now, the fire dragon was very close to them.

All it takes is a ray of dragon flame... He might not die, but it would be difficult for these two "children" to survive!

If something like that were to happen, it would be all his fault!

How could he be worthy of Dumbledore's instructions? And how could he be worthy of this child's family and friends?!

He couldn't even face Nagini!

"Gululu..."

At this moment, the fire dragon snored.

This surprised Newt. Although the dragon was a little depressed and too lazy to move, it might become furious if someone disturbed it.

When depression reaches a certain level, it will turn into mania... This is the case for humans, and fire dragons should not be too far behind...

No! We must leave this place immediately!

Now Newt deeply regrets agreeing to Levid's request!

"We should leave here..." Before Newt could finish his words, he was so scared that his blood almost ran cold!

Because in the few short seconds that he was in a daze.

Li Weide actually ran to the fire dragon's nose with that big fool and started studying the fire dragon's beard!

And it even looks like he wants to pull one out and take a look!

"Merlin's briefs!" Newt quickly mounted Zouwu and rushed forward. Then Zouwu understood what he meant and stretched out its two claws, one on each side, grabbed Li Weide and the big fool, threw them on its back, turned around and ran!

The next second, the fire dragon behind him let out a huge roar.

Then a beam of dragon flame flew past their scalps!

However, this fire dragon's state is indeed different from that of ordinary dragons...

After spraying a burst of dragon flames, he lay on the ground again and was unwilling to look up.

Newt was confused as to why the fire dragon, which had been relatively stable before, suddenly erupted this time.

Could it really be that the three of them disturbed it?

Then, out of the corner of his eye, Newt saw that the big guy had an extra hair on his hand!

Long and thick hair!

Newt's face turned green... What kind of hair is this? It's the dragon's beard!

No wonder the fire dragon spewed dragon flames!

If it was a less depressed one, it would have rushed up and started scolding me!

"Oh, big guy, you are so brave! You just pull out the fire dragon's beard so gorgeously!" Li Weide exclaimed.
