Chapter 265: Dark Magic Defense Lesson (I)
Apparently, after being forced into the job, it was too late for her to resign.
Fortunately, there is still one person who is eyeing her position as prefect and admission qualifications - that is Umbridge.
The new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher gave her an eye-contract invitation for a 1v1 PK in the first class.
Almost the moment their eyes met, Jian Yu realized that he had become her KPl.
There was pure malice in Umbridge's eyes directed at her... no, perhaps towards everyone who went against her will.
Since she has a plan to take control of Hogwarts and the goal of bringing Dumbledore down——
Jian Yu felt that perhaps she did not need to do anything. The other party could simply make up some mistakes, claiming that she had violated the rules and expel her, thus dealing a heavy blow to Dumbledore.
It was effortless.
Just in the first class -
Umbridge, who had not yet fully understood the school's situation, did not attack her in a high-profile manner, but continued to maintain a balance with every student.
"When I enter the classroom, the Head Boy, yes, Mr. Malfoy - you are to stand up and say 'Stand'!"
Umbridge had a disgusting smile on her face, just like the first day of school, her eyes narrowed, trying her best to show her respect for Draco.
Draco, who was so embarrassed that his scalp numbed, curled his lips and said "Stand up" slowly, with a reluctant expression on his face.
"Good morning, students!" Umbridge spoke in an enthusiastic and coquettish voice.
After receiving a sparse response from the little snakes who didn't want to go against the new professor, she could only see the bags under her eyes through her squinted eyes.
"Oh, what a compliment! I'm from Slytherin as well, and I'm glad to be back here and make friends with you guys!"
Jian Yu felt Daphne beside her couldn't help but let out a "tsk" sound, she whispered:
"The funniest thing I've ever heard in my life was a Senior Undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic saying he wanted to be friends with students."
"Very good!" Umbridge clapped her hands in a girlish manner, "But your answers are not standard enough! After I say good morning, you have to answer: 'Professor Umbridge, good morning!' when you stand up. Then the two prefects say 'sit down' before you can sit down."
For some reason, her actions actually brought back some forgotten memories for Jian Yu.
According to her previous experience, perhaps after this set of standing-greeting-sitting operations, the next step should be to let everyone turn to a certain page in the textbook -
Then I started reading the PPt, taking notes, and highlighting the key points... After school, I recited the entire text, and the parents signed it. I checked it the next day... I distributed various test papers and homework...
She glanced at "Magical Defense Theory" and found that the quality of the book was worrying.
Individual professional theories were mixed in with countless nonsense literature, and perhaps only a dozen words out of a hundred were meaningful; this made her feel that she knew every word, but when put together they made no sense at all.
"Put away your wands, take out your textbooks, and turn to page five—" As expected, Umbridge ordered, "We'll start reading from Chapter 1. Oh, and open your mouths wide and read aloud!"
Jian Yu, who was just wondering whether Umbridge would use a strict Hengshui teaching method, frowned.
Is this the level of teaching? No PPt at all? Not even a word of explanation?
Umbridge was just sitting there quietly on the podium...like she was secretly reading a novel?
Any normal teacher will not let students read aloud the textbook for the entire class.
The professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts is getting worse every year!
At this moment, she thought of Barty Crouch Jr. from last year... and even Quirrell, and felt that they were both handsome.
The little snakes all looked at each other in bewilderment. It was difficult for them to understand why the Defense Against the Dark Arts class did not require chanting of spells but only required reading textbooks.
"Chapter 1, Section 1, Introduction to the Basics of Magical Defense...When using magic defense, you need to pay attention to specific situations to ensure that it is legal and compliant..."
The voices of everyone reading aloud went from being neat at the beginning to gradually becoming sparse and dragging.
"Implant the theory in your heart...analyze and judge which theory is suitable for which spell...let the theory sink into your heart and mind..."
Jian Yu could hear Daphne's reading voice beside her gradually becoming confused and full of doubt, and finally stopped completely.
"Why are you absent?" Umbridge smiled and whispered, "Do you have any questions about the textbook?"
No one said anything, even though everyone knew that the teaching of this course had become a mess.
But the professor of this course changes every year anyway, and the teaching quality of most professors is a mess, so the little snakes are used to this fate.
What's more, due to Umbridge's status as Senior Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Magic, no one wanted to cause trouble.
However, many people secretly made up their minds to attend some extracurricular tutoring classes to prepare for the upcoming OWL exam.
Seeing that no one answered, the reading stopped completely. Umbridge quickly locked her eyes on the object of her hatred, Jian Yu, who had not moved a word at all, and made full use of her professional skills in accusing people of crimes and making up reasons for punishment with just a few words:
"Ms. Jane, in my class, students must follow the professor's instructions - read aloud from the textbook."
"Unfortunately, you didn't do that. Ten points from Slytherin."
Jian Yu, who had no expression on his face, smiled with satisfaction in his heart.
She knew that even if she didn't look for trouble, trouble would find her!
Look, it’s coming!
The class ended with the little snakes reciting reluctantly. In the last minute, Umbridge said:
"The voices aren't uniform enough, nor are they loud enough. I think Hogwarts should have fed you all."
She showed a very regretful expression and pursed her lips artificially:
"I'm sorry, we have to stay in class for fifteen minutes today - if you can't read in unison, then another fifteen minutes -"
The students' eyes seemed to be burning with anger, but they managed to hold it back.
At the last minute, Umbridge began assigning homework, just as Jane had expected:
"You have to recite the contents of pages 5-20 of the textbook. I will check it tomorrow. If you can't recite it, I will only give you a small punishment--"
The classroom was filled with invisible black air, which was the students' resentment.
Every little snake had a sad expression on its face. In contrast, everyone began to miss the good days of the past four years.
But Jian Yu inexplicably felt like a fish in water.
Apart from the fact that Umbridge's poor teaching level made her uncomfortable, it seemed that this was the pattern she was familiar with?
