Chapter 45: The Aurors

Chapter 45: The Aurors

Bill took Sherlock into the Burrow or the Weasley’s family house. They are two years apart in age and two grades apart when they went to school at Hogwarts.

“I heard that you also got twelve O’s in the OWL exam and went to the Auror of the Ministry of Magic?”

Except for George Fred, who is somewhat of a troublemaker. The two eldest children of the family, Bill and Charlie, are both well-mannered children. It’s just that the eldest pursued individuality and independence and finally chose to go to Gringotts in Egypt to be a Curse-Breaker. The second went to Romania to become a Dragonologist.

Facing Bill’s question, Sherlock nodded flatly, “I wanted to go to the Ministry of Magic to apply for the field department of the Auror Command to gain some experience, but they thought it would be more suitable for me to be put into the civilian department to study magic. In the end, because of the situation in the position, I resigned after working there for more than a year.”

Bill shrugged, “Even if you’re not an Auror, it’s pretty good to be a Curse-Breaker. Our job isn’t to sit in the office and wave your wand in a boring way, but to go out and have a lot of adventures.”

“Being a Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts is my greatest goal. I only applied for the Auror because Professor Dumbledore felt that I was not qualified at the time. But now I got the position that I wanted.”

Of course, Sherlock could not easily change the original Sherlock’s goal of wanting to be a Dark Arts professor, and Bill expressed his admiration for this.

“I didn’t expect that Professor Dumbledore would hire a young man in his early twenties as a professor, especially a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Which is enough to show that he believes in you.”

“It’s understandable.”

“However, the thing about your joining the Order of the Phoenix is my parents, including others, seem to have different opinions from Professor Dumbledore. It is estimated that they will have a dispute over this matter when the dinner is over.”

Sherlock frowned slightly, “Why is that so?”

“I don’t know, but the dinner will start soon, and you should be able to know the reason soon.”

His prosthetic eyes, legs, and scars all over his body were left from his heroic war with the Death Eaters and other dark wizards in the past.

The fact that he was willing to reform the Auror, who became a Death Eater, to change their ways shows that Moody was a brave, tolerant, and conscientious wizard at that time. But as he got older, he slowly became suspicious and short-tempered toward everyone.

However, he is very friendly with the original Sherlock in the Ministry of Magic. He believes that if the original Sherlock joins the Auror’s field department, he will definitely become a rising star in the Ministry of Magic in the future. This drove the original Sherlock to submit his applications to the Ministry of Magic many times.

It is precisely because of this that the relationship between the original Sherlock and him is even better than Kingsley’s. After Kingsley came to Sherlock, Moody also walked toward him with the young witch beside him.

“I haven’t seen you for a long time, Sherlock. I heard that you have become a professor at Hogwarts.” Moody’s voice was hoarse and rough, which matched his appearance.

“I have long known that your ability is perfect for this position, but if you pursue it in the Auror Command, you will definitely have a brighter future.”

“My goal is to become a professor at Hogwarts. The Ministry of Magic hasn’t set me a bright future, at least to my eyes.”

When Moody heard Sherlock’s words, he was not angry about it; he laughed, “Even two years later, you still look like the same person.”

Kingsley introduced the young witch to Sherlock.

“This is Nymphadora Tonks. She is a year younger than you, from Hufflepuff, and just graduated from Hogwarts last summer. She is now taking part in the Auror training and is very talented. Yes, she will be an excellent Auror in the future and, at the same time, have the same goals and ambitions as you. I brought her to meet Dumbledore just because it feels like a good time to introduce her.”

He wanted to introduce Sherlock to Tonks, but Tonks eagerly interrupted him.

“You don’t need to introduce me to Forrest. I already knew him in the second grade and even confessed to him in the fourth grade.” As soon as her words came out of her mouth, the surrounding people stared, not knowing how to react to this information.NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
