Professor Trelawney is unable to control her predictive abilities, and therefore often falls into extremes of arrogance and inferiority.
After she woke up, she took the initiative to apologize to Fang Yan - the reason for this reaction was that deep in her heart she had concluded that compared to herself, Fang Yan was the "real prophet".
The divination professor's behavior was more like shame than guilt.
Seeing the skinny middle-aged witch with round-framed glasses, looking exhausted and self-pitying, Fang Yan smiled slightly. He obviously did not intend to pursue her attitude. Instead, he said softly, "Professor Trelawney, my [Prophet Instinct] tells me that you are a trustworthy fortune-teller with abilities that others cannot match!"
After a pause, he promised without any psychological burden: "When I become the headmaster of Hogwarts in the future, the position of Divination professor will be reserved for you forever! - As long as you are willing."
Rewarding those who have made contributions and punishing those who have made mistakes is the right way to employ people.
Professor Trelawney is neither greedy nor bad, she is just a little vain and desires fame and respect - what if she can enjoy the credit for the rest of her life after making such a great contribution this time?
Professor Trelawney, who was wearing round-framed glasses, blushed when Fang Yan praised her. She covered her face with her hands and said with joy: "You are really good at talking! For your wonderful prediction in Potions class, Gryffindor will give you 20 extra points!"
Look, what does it mean to know the goods?
Only powerful legends like Fang Yan and Dumbledore can discern her and see through her extraordinary nature! Dumbledore, the current headmaster of Hogwarts, heard the conversation between the two and his long white beard trembled slightly.
In other words, his temper has improved dozens of times over the years. If it were before...
Of course, if it were in the past, Fang Yan would definitely use a different set of rhetoric - he understands human nature so well!
Dumbledore shook his head, a complicated smile appeared on his face, and he said to Fang Yan casually: "At the end of this year, I will arrange for you to take the OWLS. Can you really get 12 Os? Do you have enough time?"
In the Hogwarts class schedule, the time arrangements for many subjects conflict!
No matter how smart a little wizard is, he will always lose sight of the big picture if he is too greedy.
"The test is coming!" Fang Yan was calm, even a little nonchalant, but his thoughts were quite restless, "As expected of an old man who has lived for more than a hundred years, he has become a spirit..."
This topic may seem ordinary, but it is actually closely related to the extraordinary power of [Time Against the Current]!
In the original story, in her third year of studying at Hogwarts, Hermione Granger applied for a magical device called the "Time Turner" from Professor McGonagall. With the help of the Time Turner, Hermione could go back a few hours and take more classes.
Fang Yan raised his head and met the eyes of the silver-haired old principal. Without hiding anything, he said frankly: "Principal, are you trying to tell me about the existence of the [Time Converter]? But I already knew this!"
Without waiting for Dumbledore to ask further questions, Fang Yan continued: "I am determined to get this magical treasure, but... not now!"
"——Only those who revere the power of time can truly remain uncorrupted by it."
Fang Yan's ability to speak differently to different people became more and more powerful.
This set of rhetoric is extremely consistent with the White Lord's philosophy of life and magical aesthetics.
Just look at Dumbledore's reaction after hearing his speech.
The old principal was startled at first, then after thinking carefully for a moment, he laughed out loud with relief: "Okay!"
He waved his wand gently.
Swish! The air twisted, and the next moment, a book with an old cover suddenly appeared from the air and fell into Fang Yan's hands.
Fang Yan lowered his head and saw a line of words on the cover: "Dumbledore's Magical Experience". After flipping through a few pages, he realized that this seemingly ordinary book was actually the study notes left by the White Lord when he was studying at Hogwarts! How valuable is the learning experience of a magic master? Especially Dumbledore's experience, even if it is described as "priceless", it is a little understated!
In the original story, when Harry Potter was in his senior year, he accidentally got the study notes of Potions Professor Snape when he was at his most immature and called himself the "Half-Blood Prince". With just a few words from the book, he became an outstanding new potion genius, almost making everyone think that he was a rising supernova in the field of potions! Dumbledore's study manual is naturally more powerful!
At this point, Fang Yan was recognized by the White Lord, passed his initial test, and officially became a [Hogwarts Special Wizard Apprentice], with a higher status and position than others.
"It's still not strong enough..."
Fang Yan left the principal's office surrounded by his friends, and sighed in his heart: "If I were strong enough and could easily suppress the White Lord and the Dark Lord, then I could do whatever I want and reshape the entire magic world at will."
I think so, but I still have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. After all, I am only 11 years old now, and the road ahead is still long. There is no need to rush.
As soon as they walked out of the office, the little wizards immediately swarmed out, looking for other students with excitement on their faces and telling them about Fang Yan's performance just now.
Hermione, Harry, Malfoy, Ron and the others seemed to be witnessing the rise of a legendary wizard, or like bards chanting epic poems, each of them excitedly recounting his [self-created magic], his [accurate predictions], and his [little stories about the Eastern magical world].
This is helping Fang Yan become famous.
Of course Fang Yan couldn't stop this, instead he was happy to see it happen.
Power, fame, authority, wealth, status...
These things are all extremely wonderful things - you must taste them while you are alive! No matter which world you are in, you must hold all of these things in your hands!
Those who have nothing and become disillusioned with the world are just comforting themselves incompetently!
The young wizards went to "spread gossip". Fang Yan walked side by side with the Potions Professor and said faintly, "In a prophetic dream, I saw some horrible and dangerous scenes in advance. Many students and professors will die. For the peace and stability of Hogwarts, I want you to do something next to achieve the purpose of fighting poison with poison. Now, come closer."
Snape readily accepted the advice, bowed slightly and listened attentively - he was not that arrogant, and his mentality changed quickly. His career as a multi-faceted spy had already honed his strong heart and adaptability.
Fang Yan lowered his voice and said a few words in his ear.
After a moment, a look of surprise appeared on the face of the Potions Professor in a black robe. His facial muscles twitched slightly, and he opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.
"You call this kind of thing fighting fire with fire?"
Snape's eyes twitched slightly, his venomous instinct was ready to move, and he couldn't help but say sarcastically: "The Sorting Hat is right, you are still too unworthy in Hogwarts - you should shine in Azkaban."
Fang Yan was calm and didn't take it as an offense. He said calmly, "This [prison joke] is quite good. People who are perfect will always be feared and suppressed. On the contrary, excellent people with obvious shortcomings are more likely to get along with everyone. But..."
"If you don't want to do this, I can arrange for someone else to do it."
If he got furious and lost his temper, the Potions Professor wouldn't mind.
But Fang Yan's performance made Snape's breathing stagnate. He then leaned forward, bowed slightly, and elegantly placed his wand in front of his chest. He said with a firm look in his eyes, "For the great cause of the Lionheart King, I am willing to go."
