Chapter 84

"Then, what I want to tell you is: the Bogart sitting in the dark in the wardrobe has not appeared in any image. He doesn't know what can scare the people outside the door... No one knows what Bogart looks like when he is alone, but when I release it, it will immediately become the most feared thing for each of us."

"This means," Professor Luhu said, "before the practice officially began, we had a huge advantage over Bogart... Does anyone know where the advantage is?"

"I think... It's because there are too many people here," said one student.

"Yes, that's right!" lupin said with a smile. "When dealing with Bogart, the best way is to have more people, so he will be confused. Because he doesn't know what to change."

"The spell to repel Bogart is very simple, but it takes willpower. You know, what really scares Bogart is laughter! All you have to do is force it to become what you think is ridiculous."

"Let's read the mantra without a wand. Please tell me... Funny!"

Maka obviously doesn't catch a cold about it. In fact, Bogart is almost harmless. Even if the other person becomes the thing you fear most, it won't hurt you accordingly - they will only scare you.

"OK," said Professor Lupin, "very good. But this is only the easiest part. You know, this spell alone is not enough..."

Lupin asked everyone to line up and go up one by one to deal with Bogart in the wardrobe.

In this regard, Lupin's course content is undoubtedly much better than Hagrid. Although Bogart looks terrible, it is not likely to hurt people. It is suitable to be used as the content of the first class.

Everyone seems very happy. After all, such an interesting course is really rare.

Of course, it is inevitable that students will be stunned occasionally, but at least no one has been so far.

Soon, it's Marca's turn.

"... Oh, OK! Great!" lupin praised loudly, and then continued, "so, next!"

Maka walked forward, facing Bogart, who had become a snow monster in Christmas clothes, and waited quietly.

He was also curious about how Bogart would react when he faced himself.

At the next moment, the snow monster twisted and rotated, making a crackling sound - a sign that Bogot was about to deform.

But the popping sound continued. It rotated fast, but it didn't complete the deformation.

Everyone looked puzzled, and Professor Lupin looked at Bogart suspiciously. He didn't know what he was doing.

You know, people are afraid. No matter how small, Bogart will detect it and change himself into the appearance of fear of the other party.

So lupin didn't think about anything else at all. He just thought that something was wrong with the Bogot.

But Maka was clear about this situation. He looked at Bogot, who was twisting and rotating in mid air. Seeing that it didn't seem to stop, he couldn't help but stretch out his wand.

Originally, Maka wanted to use a freezing spell, but after a little consideration, he gave up.

"Funny."

Maka turned the spinning Bogart into a big wool ball, bounced on the ground a few times and rolled to one side.

"Maybe it's because I'm afraid of dizziness. It wants to make me dizzy by spinning," Maka explained dryly.

"Well..." Lu Ping said, "Oh, well... Maybe that's right."

The other students were wondering. When they heard Maka's reason, they couldn't help laughing.

On the whole, the class was very successful. If possible, we all hope that Professor Lupin can break the curse of "the professor of defense against the dark arts can only serve for one year" and stay.

The students liked his defense against the dark arts course very much.

Perhaps only Draco Malfoy and his group of Slytherins are bad mouthing Professor Lupin.

"Look at his robe," Malfoy would shout as Professor Lupin walked by. "He dressed like our house elf."

But apart from them, no one cared that Professor Lupin's robe had patches and fur edges.

His next few classes were as lively and interesting as the first one.

After Bogot, they studied the red hat, which is an unpleasant little guy like a monster. Wherever anyone bleeds, they lurk everywhere. In the main building of the castle, in the potholes of the deserted battlefield, they wait to attack the lost people violently.

Then, the content of the class changed from red hat to Kaba.

This is a crawling aquatic animal that looks like a scaled monkey with webbed hands and is busy strangling the waders walking in their pond.

Everyone is looking forward to every class. The defense against the dark arts class has not brought this feeling to you for a long time.

However, compared with the defense against the dark arts class, Hagrid's protection of magical creatures class is terrible.

The course became very dull after the first lesson full of action.

Although Marca made a good start for Hagrid, the rumors spread by Malfoy made Hagrid lose confidence. Now they learn lesson after lesson how to take care of the fleabane caterpillar. They often put the sliced lettuce into the fleabane caterpillar's sticky throat in class

In the eyes of students, they must be the most annoying creatures available.

Maka can't help it.

Although he didn't mind being a "teaching assistant" outside the establishment, since Hagrid had no confidence, he was not the kind of person who insisted on helping.

What's more, he has many things to do!

For example, tonight, he will take time to go to Hogsmeade village and get something from his partner Tyrande.

Hogsmeade village is always covered with white because it is always above the snow line. Maka has long been used to this.

But the recent Hogsmeade is a little different from usual - there are Dementors searching everywhere, and most wizards rarely go out.

Sirius Black's escape from prison has indeed caused a great storm. After all, there has never been a prisoner's escape since Azkaban operated as a wizard prison!

Maka walks alone in Hogsmeade village at night. After a short time, she will pass by one or two Dementors, but they all ignore Maka's existence.

It turns out that they can't find Maka.

Maka didn't have time to pay attention to the monsters. He hurried around the tall and thin guys and quickly came to the back door of a small shop in an alley.

"Dong Dong."

Maka knocked on the wooden door gently, and the sound was particularly abrupt in the silent night.

Soon, the door was opened from the inside, and a bandaged face appeared behind the door.

"Oh, it's you... Come on in." Tyrande opened the wooden door halfway, waved and hurried down the tunnel.

Marca walked in sideways, and the door was soon closed again with a creak.

"That's terrible! Those damn... Cough... Damn Dementors!" Tyrande shouted angrily. "The business is... Cough... Driven away by them!"

"So I'll send you something good." under Marca's disguise, the file like voice still makes people want to take out their ears.

He took out a small bottle and put it on the table in front of Tyrande.

"This is a gadget with a similar effect to the patron saint curse. Although the effect is much worse than the patron saint curse, after all, anyone can use it..."

"How... Cough... How to use?" Tyrande took the small bottle and looked. It seemed to contain a milky floc with a faint glow.

"Just pull out the cork," Maka explained. "It will burst out a burst of white light to block the Dementors out. The effective duration is about a minute."

"Oh! That's a... cough... Good thing." Tyrande looked happy. "How many are there?"

"Unfortunately, not much," said Maka. "At least don't expect it to be mass produced... But the price can be higher, can't it?"

"Cough... Yes, I think... Cough, yes!" Tyrande kept nodding. "Oh, by the way... Cough... Your things are ready."

He got up, took a flat box from the shelf behind him and put it in front of Marca.

Maka gently opened the box and took out the contents.

It was a dark suit, from clothes to trousers, to a long cloak with a hood, and even a pair of boots and gloves.

They all look very delicate. At first glance, they seem to be black, but if you look carefully, you will find that there is a little dark green in them. On their surface, they seem to have fine scales, reminiscent of snake skin.

That's right. Maka took great pains to peel the snake skin from the snake monster as the raw material and asked Tyrande to find a good thing customized by the craftsman.

In addition, there are still a lot of materials left on the snake monster, which is enough for Maka to arm herself slowly.

Especially the Basilisk horn. Maka plans to deal with it herself. If there is no accident, a powerful self-made magic wand will become one of his powerful help in the future.

The things she wanted to do had been done. Maka sat here for a while, learned about the recent rumors, and got up and left.

But what he didn't expect was that in Hogsmeade village full of Dementors, Sirius Black was boldly running around in the form of Animagus.

"... it's really big."

As Maka walked out the back door of Tyrande's shop, he caught a glimpse of a black dog passing through the deep alley.
