Upon hearing what the portrait said, Snape's face darkened. Dumbledore trusted Snape greatly because of some things Snape had done to him about the public chat group.

They also left a secret order that if he wasn't around, Snape could command the house-elves and the portraits. With this, Snape thought he was sure to get the Defense Against the Dark Arts professorship, but he didn't expect these damned guys to start causing trouble before the semester even started.

Since school hadn't started yet, Snape told the girls to go to the Slytherin common room in the basement to rest, while he and Kerry went to deal with the board of governors.

Soyo and his group naturally had no objections; they were already quite grateful to avoid sleeping on the streets.

Then Snape looked at Kerry.

"I'm sorry to trouble you again. If this crisis is resolved, I'm willing to give you 5000 points. Although I can't come up with it right away, I will pay it back slowly."

Upon hearing this, Kerry waved his hands repeatedly.

"Don't mention it, we've known each other for a long time."

Snape smiled upon hearing this.

Then Kerry added a sentence.

"Don't forget, we're asking the administrators of your fourth group to act as notaries for the points loan."

Snape stuffed the small vial of Felix Felicis that he had intended to give to Kerry back into his pocket and led the way with a blank expression.

Soon, the two found themselves in Professor McGonagall's office, where they encountered a menacing group of people.

At this moment, Professor McGonagall, an elderly catgirl with a wrinkled face but capable of transforming into an adorable tabby cat, is confronting the crowd with a cold expression.

As the vice-principal, Minerva McGonagall was naturally the one who had to handle things while Dumbledore was away.

"The Ministry of Magic has no right to interfere with Hogwarts' internal appointments."

Professor McGonagall looked displeased, but she still repeatedly emphasized her own arguments.

"This is not only the opinion of the Ministry of Magic, but also the opinion of the Board of Governors."

The blond-haired Lucius Malfoy, who was leading the group, tapped the table to emphasize the legitimacy of the matter.

"Besides, I don't think Severus, who acts recklessly in the street, is suitable to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts."

Lucius Malfoy looked quite smug, after all, he had previously suffered a setback with the harpy-headed winged beast, preventing Hogwarts from incurring any losses.

However, he has now managed to become an official in the Ministry of Magic by simply making some donations to it, and can now freely point fingers at people at Hogwarts as a leader of the Ministry of Magic.

"Oh, really? If I'm not suitable, then who is?"

With Kerry by his side, Snape pushed open the office door and walked in without any hesitation.

Malfoy, and Umbridge, who was depicted as the pink toad in the portrait, both frowned and turned to look. Some members of the Board of Governors around them lowered their heads to make their presence known when they saw Snape, while others arrogantly met his gaze.

Can a teacher like this effectively educate children?

The middle-aged woman dressed in bright pink spoke up, pointing at Snape and then at Kerry.

"Only ill-mannered people would casually bring unimportant people into someone else's conversation."

"Only ill-mannered people would casually comment on others behind their backs." Normally, if he were a teacher and the others were school board members or bureaucrats, Snape would have tolerated it.

But there was really no need to hold back today. Little Tom was here, and he dared to point at Little Tom's nose and curse him, launching a sharp-tongued counterattack.

Chapter 261 But the life of a school board member is finite!

Snape's unexpected rebuttal plunged everyone present into an awkward silence.

McGonagall never expected Snape to talk back.

Umbridge was even more furious. "You grew up in the Muggle world, and this is how the Snake Faction boss made you the school's spokesperson?"

What do the Board of Trustees and the Ministry of Magic want you to do, and you dare to argue with them?

We still have your past mistakes, like the one where you assaulted someone in the street. The reason we haven't sent you straight to Azkaban is because we want you to compromise. And you're still so stubborn?

Lucius was even more puzzled, because it was clearly more beneficial for the Death Eaters to let the incompetent Ministry of Magic take power.

Others might not know, but he certainly did: Snape was a seasoned Death Eater and a lackey of the Dark Lord.

Lucius was trying to do something, but Snape did the opposite; at most, it was just internal factional struggle.

But I, Lucius, am going to do something that benefits the Dark Lord, and you, Snape, are still jumping around here?

Have you grown too big for your britches? You don't take Tom Liddell, the Dark Lord, seriously anymore? The Dark Mark doesn't hurt anymore, does it?

Little did Lucius know that Snape was truly fearless today. Snape thought it would be best if Tom Cruise brought all his lackeys out to be captured by Kree in one fell swoop.

The members of the board of directors also looked displeased.

The board of trustees is usually composed of social celebrities and students' parents, and they have unlimited power within Hogwarts.

Although the information did not specify, it is clear that the Board of Governors provides funding for Hogwarts' operation; otherwise, the headmasters of successive generations would not have been so foolish as to send a group of ignorant people to restrict how they run the school.

It's not like Totsuki Academy, where they select ten good students, give them a title, train them to become star players, but instead they're given the power to directly cancel the rights of the school board members and the principal.

However, it's rare to find something as abstract as Totsuki in the multiverse. Don't you know that land in Japan is permanent? If you try to impeach the principal, I'll have the police kick you out.

Everyone was now looking at Snape with hostile expressions.

Umbridge even stood up.

“Severus, it seems your mind doesn’t live up to the reputation of your potions.”

I can tell you definitively that the Ministry of Magic intends for me, Dolores Umbridge, to serve as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Not only you, who injured someone in the street, but also Dumbledore, who privately organized students to study combat magic and attempted to train a private army without the permission of the Ministry of Magic, will be dismissed.

Especially you, I think you need to go to Azkaban to sober up.

Umbridge stood up as she spoke, pointing directly at Snape.

She didn't even mention the school board, because in her mind, the Ministry of Magic had unlimited power. And indeed, after the Ministry of Magic started using political coercion, Umbridge, Fudge's deputy, even became the headmaster of Hogwarts, directly intervening without the school board's authority.

Despite Dumbledore's powerful reputation, they still dared to do this. The reason they surrendered as soon as Voldemort appeared is quite simple.

They knew Dumbledore wouldn't kill anyone, even though this old bee was essentially a ruthless White Devil, he would abide by the rules he set for himself.

But Tom wouldn't, so they dared to dismiss Dumbledore, but wouldn't dare utter a word about Tom's return.

However, it's clear they've chosen the wrong day.

Snape shook his head.

“I will be the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. I’m not here to discuss this with you, just to inform you. Oh, and this is Mr. Kerry next to me. He will be the new headmaster of Hogwarts.”

Everyone looked at Snape strangely upon hearing his words.

Lucius asked McGonagall curiously.

"Is this what you teachers mean?"

“No, this is the first time I’ve even met Mr. Kerry.” McGonagall shook her head in surprise as she looked at Snape.

Then everyone's gaze became even stranger.

No, our Ministry of Magic, the teachers, and the school board haven't announced who the headmaster is. What's the point of Snape appointing the headmaster himself?

You're some kind of Hogwarts local tyrant.

"Severus, I think you've gone mad! Him? A wild wizard we've never even heard of, what makes him qualified to be the headmaster?"

Umbridge pointed at Kerry, her voice tinged with confusion.

The people here are all thinking like female viewers. It's not like we all have laws and rules. Snape, with his background and his crew, dares to disregard all rules. Are we crazy, or are you crazy?

Your Nascent Soul stage ancestor Dumbledore was falsely accused by us of trying to overthrow the Ministry of Magic, and he had no choice but to obediently leave. Why did you still jump on the bandwagon?

Unfortunately, it's clear that Snape brought along a male protagonist from a male-oriented novel today.

"Why? Because he's strong enough. You spineless cowards who can submit to the Dark Lord can naturally submit to him too."

The moment Snape uttered that name, everyone in the room felt a chill run down their spines.

Everyone stared at Snape, wide-eyed. "How dare you just blurt out that man's name? You don't want to live anymore, but we do!"

Lucius felt that Snape had really gone mad. Where did he find a backer who dared to defy even the Dark Lord? His face turned very pale.

"It seems Severus has developed some mental issues. We'll send him straight to Azkaban, and the person with him also needs a thorough investigation. What do you think? Do you want to stand with this madman Severus and make an enemy of the entire wizarding world?"

Lucius gave a wink to the people around him. There were quite a few Death Eaters on the Board of Governors, and they all stood up with dark faces, ready to teach Snape a lesson.

Then he drew his wand, pointed it at Kerry, and questioned him.

To be honest, without the chat group, Kerry's English level is not as good as Anon's.

Fortunately, Kerry's English is good enough to answer the question.

"Fuck!"

The opposing group immediately flew into a rage, drew their wands, and began casting spells.

Snape shrugged as he watched their movements, then looked at Kerry: "This is troublesome."

"Except your weapons!"

"A black dragon emerges from its cave!"

"He collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious!"

"Obstacles are numerous!"

Suddenly, as several wizards drew their wands and chanted, a barrage of special effects lasers sent papers flying through the office.

Professor McGonagall also had to draw her wand to protect the private property in her office.

Kerry watched as the magical light filled the sky and pretended to draw with his finger.

Then he recited a whole bunch of magical incantations, and then his soul power directly applied the effects of those incantations to these people.

"Leg cramps, intestinal obstruction, little toe hitting the table, wisdom tooth hyperplasia, broken nail, stiff neck, tickled soles!"

The venomous snakes and red light were completely annihilated before they even got close to Kree, and the obstacles were utterly ineffective.

The spell would disintegrate before it even reached Kree and the other person.

The casters of the curse collapsed in agony after a moment of stunned silence.

"Waaaaah!" Completely lacking in manners, Lucius Malfoy clutched his calves and feet, not even caring that his head was hitting the table, and kept rolling around.

"Help! Help! I feel like I'm going to die! Stop it!" Umbridge's face was contorted into a pretzel.

The other school board members were also wailing incessantly. Forget about casting any retaliatory spells; even letting go of their hands was now an impossible task.

Chapter 262 The Dark Lord: What about me?

"This……"

Professor McGonagall, clutching her numerous jars of precious items, stared in astonishment at Kerry, who had single-handedly wiped out an entire wizarding band.

Then he glanced at Snape, who was standing to the side with his hands on his hips, staring at the fallen people without even drawing his wand.

McGonagall swallowed hard.

I never imagined that after such a long period of time...

She witnessed scenes she had never seen before.

"Ms. McGonagall, could you please inform the teachers who are still at the school that we are holding a staff meeting later?"

Kerry rubbed his hands together, indicating that a meeting would be held later.

"Stop right now! Merlin's underwear! If you don't stop, the Dementors will surround Hogwarts tomorrow!"

Umbridge's face turned ashen with pain, yet she still managed to utter a threat.

This Umbridge is a typical female-oriented player.

Their actual combat effectiveness was very average, but they rose to official positions through various means.

She also thought that she could make everyone listen to her just because of her status.

If any student disobeys, they are expelled and coerced. They even dare to use the Azkaban escape incident to attack Dumbledore in the newspaper, thinking that they have won by ruining other people's reputations and cyberbullying them.

Kerry thought for a moment.

So he reached out and pointed again.

"The esophagus extends from the large intestine and small intestine to the stomach."
