"Wolf... werewolf?"

"How is that possible?!"

Cedric and Green said almost in unison.

The two's reactions were as Dumbledore expected, but what surprised Dumbledore was that Wentworth's eyes lit up and he didn't seem to mind his werewolf identity at all.

Of course, Wentworth had already guessed who the teacher Dumbledore was talking about.

Wentworth nodded repeatedly without hesitation, and said with a hint of joy in his tone:

"Okay Headmaster Dumbledore, I promise!"

Seeing that Wentworth agreed immediately, Cedric quickly tugged on Wentworth's clothes and whispered:

"Wentworth, please think carefully. That's a werewolf! Don't you know what a dangerous creature a werewolf is?!"

Green also said: "Principal Dumbledore, are you serious? Let a werewolf teach Wentworth Defense Against the Dark Arts? What can he teach? Defense against werewolves?"

It's no wonder that Cedric and Green reacted so violently. If there is a chain of contempt in the magic world at this time, werewolves must be at the bottom.

But before Dumbledore could explain, Wentworth spoke first: "Don't worry, even if you don't believe in that werewolf, you should believe in Principal Dumbledore! Principal, I believe you won't harm me, and I am willing to accept the teachings of that werewolf!"

Hearing Wentworth's answer, Dumbledore smiled and said kindly:

"Wentworth, you are right. Of course I won't harm you. After all, you are... after all, you are my student!"

"In fact, that werewolf was once my student. He is also an excellent wizard who graduated from Hogwarts!"

After hearing Dumbledore's explanation, Cedric and Green both showed surprised expressions, but it was obvious that their doubts were still there.

After hesitating for a moment, Cedric said, "Principal Dumbledore, if possible, I hope to follow Wentworth and receive instruction from that werewolf...teacher every weekend!"

Cedric still looked conflicted when he spoke. Wentworth knew that Cedric was worried about his safety, so he deliberately wanted to accompany him.

Facing Cedric's request, Dumbledore smiled calmly, nodded and said:

"Of course you can. In fact, in most cases, you will even forget that he is a werewolf. Just avoid the full moon night!"

Green, standing aside, said somewhat embarrassedly:

"I'm sorry, Wentworth, Cedric, I still have to prepare for the OWLs exam, so I may not have time..."

Before Green could finish, Wentworth hugged Green and said, "It's okay, Green. In fact, I was hoping you wouldn't go there. Just wait, it won't be long before I can beat you to a pulp."

When Green heard what Wentworth said, he seemed to still have some regrets.

"Dream on!"

"Don't worry, we will be careful!"

Seeing the scene of Wentworth, Cedric and Green hugging each other, Dumbledore's smile grew wider, and he then said, "Okay Wentworth, I will notify him to come as soon as possible, but since he is not a professor at Hogwarts, nor is he a current student at Hogwarts, he cannot enter Hogwarts."

"I will arrange for him to live in Hogsmeade Village. Every weekend thereafter, I will take you two to Hogsmeade Village to study with him. By the way, his name is Lupin, Remus John Lupin!"

In the following days, while Wentworth and Cedric were waiting for the weekend to go to Hogsmeade to study Defense Against the Dark Arts with Lupin, the wizarding world outside Hogwarts was in turmoil, and it could even be said that there was a panic.

On the surface, almost all the Aurors of the British Ministry of Magic have ended their vacation. Under the leadership of the new head of the Auror Office, Rufus Scrimgeour, countless Aurors are searching for a group of wizard hunters who have entered the country illegally in the UK.

For a time, the entire British wizarding community became somewhat panic-stricken.

However, this group of Aurors, who had received top-notch training and represented the strongest force of the British Ministry of Magic, although had no problem with their fighting ability, were far from satisfactory when it came to finding people. After a few days, it seemed that they had achieved little results.

Just when many dark wizards hiding in the UK were laughing at the incompetence of the British Ministry of Magic, another group of wizards appeared, scaring those dark wizards hiding in the dark and making them flee in all directions.

In a building that looked like a dilapidated wooden house to Muggles, many strange magical items were displayed in the room.

At this time, in the room where the Traceless Retraction Charm was cast, Abernathy sat at the head of a long table.

On both sides of the long table, many wizards sat in order. Some of them had gray hair, but there were also a few young wizards who sat upright, not daring to breathe.

Each wizard held a piece of paper in his hand, and everyone was comparing the contents on the paper and discussing it.

A wizard with gray hair looked at the young wizard sitting next to him, smiled and asked: "What's your name? Whose family are you from?"

Hearing this, the young wizard immediately turned around and replied very respectfully:

"My name is Auston Greengrass, from the pure-blooded Greengrass family!"

Hearing this, the old wizard nodded slowly and said, "Oh, I know you. It's rare that you, as one of the twenty-eight sacred families in Britain, have not forgotten your vows and have not joined Voldemort's army!"

The young man who called himself Auston Greengrass said with a smile:

"Back then, Voldemort's men found my father. I still remember that night when countless dark wizards broke into our family and asked us to follow Voldemort."

"My father refused the other party very firmly. I was terrified at the time. Just when I thought the other party was going to take action, my father took out this!"

As Auston Greengrass spoke, he took out a pendant from his arms. It was a circle wrapped in a triangle with a vertical line running through it. It was the symbol of the Deathly Hallows.

Looking at the pendant in his hand, Auston Greengrass said devoutly, "I can see the other party's struggle. They still want to take action, but they are afraid of something. In the end, the leader of the group of Death Eaters just left a sentence, saying that you will regret it. When we come back again, you will know that you have missed the only hope of survival. Then he left."

"It was then that I realized that we were loyal to the great Gellert Grindelwald! We are the great Witch Party! So, as soon as I received the news that the Witch Party was gathering, I rushed here immediately. We, the Greengrass family, have never forgotten the oath of our ancestors, for the greater good!"
