Chapter 1033： A powerful old liar

Chapter 1033: The old liar with great fighting power

 “You’ve indulged them too much lately.”

Just after finishing the Defense Against Dark Arts training, Katrina and Albert came out of the Room of Requirement and chatted about a series of recent events, "Even I heard about the Defense Association."

"This matter has nothing to do with me. I just gave them some insignificant help. The so-called Defense Association was created by themselves." Albert admitted that he did provide Hermione with a little help, but the whole The matter really had nothing to do with him.

 “I would never believe that you have anything to do with this.” Katrina doesn’t believe that the Defense Association has nothing to do with Albert. The fact that they use the “Self-Defense Guide” as a teaching material to teach other students already explains a lot.

What’s more, others don’t have this ability.

Umbridge was driven crazy.

Katrina still remembers that one time when she was eating, a big dung bomb fell directly into the toad's plate. It was scary to think about it.

Later, I heard that dung bombs have become the most notorious contraband in Hogwarts. However, Filch tried his best and still failed to prevent dung bombs from appearing in Hogwarts Castle.

These things are as tough as bugs.

Don’t forget, Umbridge had people check the packages of students at Hogwarts. Normally, there is no way to quietly deliver a large number of dung bombs to Hogwarts Castle. The only possibility is through house elves. Katrina happens to know that Albert likes to let house elves do things for him.

“Tell me, when will I be able to use the silent spell skillfully?” Katrina was not talking about this with Albert, but changed a topic that she cared more about.

Mastering silent spells and actually using silent spells are two different things. If you want to get high scores in Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts, you must be able to use silent spells. As long as you can use them skillfully, you can get a higher score, because you can A wizard who is skilled in using, no, should be said to be able to use silent spells, can barely be regarded as a powerful wizard.

"It depends on how much time you are willing to spend practicing silent spells." Albert said calmly: "Or, you can try to change the wand. A wand made of alder wood is best for using silent spells."

"When did you start dabbling in wandology?" Katrina raised her eyebrows slightly. It wasn't that she didn't believe it, but she was surprised by the vast scope of Albert's dabbling.

The average wizard rarely dabbles in multiple fields in his life, and even if he does, he rarely achieves good results. However, this guy in front of him is definitely an exception.

 Because she didn’t know there was such a creature as a hook.

Of course, Albert’s success is partly due to his own efforts.

"I have always dabbled in it." Albert didn't talk much about it. His wand science was only dabbled in. The wands he made were very mediocre and he didn't want to use them himself.

　　The two of them walked down the stairs, chatting about what happened after graduation, and walked towards the library. Katrina seems to be stuck in the dilemma of finding a job after graduation, and opening a beauty shop is just a backup plan for her.

 “I don’t want to be like my sister,” Katrina muttered.

 Albert didn’t make any comments, he saw Isobel’s efforts.

As soon as he arrived at the library, he heard someone shouting at the door: "Professor Trelawney was fired by Umbridge and is now in the foyer."

This shouting made Mrs. Pince in the library very angry. Many students in the library could not sit still and prepared to go to the foyer to watch the fun.

"I thought you knew?" Katrina tilted her head and looked at Albert. Professor Trelawney's prophecy was probably caused by Albert. This guy is very bad.

"This kind of thing requires careful divination, otherwise it is impossible to accurately predict the specific time." Albert explained casually.

"Professor Trelawney was expelled by Umbridge, don't you go and see?" Katrina was a little surprised at Albert's calmness. This guy was as calm as ever.

“Of course we have to go see the fun, let’s go together!”

Albert really had no intention of going to the library, but walked towards the secret passage not far from here, planning to take a shortcut to the foyer to watch the excitement with others.

This is a rare drama at Hogwarts, and it was directed by him himself. It would be a pity to miss it.

By the time they passed, the foyer was already crowded with students, and many people were crowded on the marble stairs. The audience in the front row surrounded the principals.

 The onlookers were whispering in low voices.

 No way, Trelawney was fired by Toad, which still shocked and disturbed everyone. None of them expected that Toad actually fired a school professor.

 “She should have been fired.”

A tall Slytherin student said to his companions with a gloating look on his face, "Everyone knows she is a complete liar."

"Liar, you think Professor Trelawney is a liar. Her prophecy came true, Potter was suspended, she was expelled, and you still think she is a liar." The two Gryffindor girls glared at the The Slytherin boy sneered sharply, "You're just an idiot who doesn't understand anything."

 It is indeed disgusting to say sarcastic words at this time.

Of course, many students around were surprised by the bravery of the Gryffindor girl.

"Mt. Montague, if I were you, I wouldn't talk nonsense here. Everyone has bad luck, and you are no exception." Albert's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Montague who was furious because of the provocation. , "Do you want others to laugh at you when you are at your lowest?"

"I won't." Montague obviously didn't dare to shout in front of Albert, but he still mustered up the courage to retort to avoid embarrassing himself in front of the Slytherin members.

 “No, you do, everyone does.”

Albert ignored Montague and looked at the two Gryffindor girls. After they noticed Albert's gaze, they slightly shrank their heads and said sorry to Albert.

 “She is so calm.”

Katrina looked Professor Trelawney up and down, a little surprised at the calmness of the Divination Professor. This person didn't look like he was going to be expelled at all.

Trelawny held the wand in her hand, as if she was waiting for something.

"I gave you a chance." Umbridge said in a little girl's voice, "You don't have any prophecy talent at all. You can't even predict tomorrow's weather, and your teaching is extremely bad. If you don't want to When you improve the course, you are destined to be fired. If you don't want to leave on your own, I can only ask someone to leave."

Umbridge was obviously prepared. The two Aurors beside her were here just for this purpose. Otherwise, God knows where, a few troublemakers would pop up and sneak up on her, and she would have to be on guard.

"Don't worry, I'm just waiting for Dumbledore and preparing to say a few words to him. I will leave by myself then, and you don't need to chase people away." Trelawney looked at Umbridge and said softly, "If I If it were you, you would pay more attention to your own situation. Didn't you notice that you looked unlucky when you looked in the mirror?"

"how dare you…"

"You want to drive me away, why don't I dare?" Professor Trelawney looked at Umbridge like she was an idiot and said, "Besides, what I said is the truth. Aren't you very unlucky recently? ? Don’t worry, this is just the beginning, and that nickname is really correct, you and toad have an indissoluble bond.”

With a puff, no one in the crowd laughed. More and more students were infected by the laughter and laughed out loud. This was the first time that they felt that Professor Trelawney was so interesting. It turned out that she was not only He is just a liar, but he is also so sharp with his tongue.

"Dumbledore can't change the fact that you were fired. I have a dismissal order signed by myself and the Minister of Magic." Umbridge's face turned red, and her eyes scanned the crowd, as if looking for those who dared to People who laughed at her.

"I know, you idiot Fudge." Professor Trelawney said nonchalantly: "You idiot who will step down next year. Everyone knows about this, but you don't know... It's a shame that you are still the Deputy Minister of Magic."

"Dumbledore simply doesn't like to argue with you idiots, so he has been too lazy to talk to you? He is such a little fool with no self-awareness." Trelawney said slightly excitedly, "By the way, you will be hospitalized next year. When the time comes, I will remember to visit you.”

Professor Trelawney's shocking words instantly stunned all the students, even the professors. Did Dumbledore really know about this, so he let Umbridge stay in the school? Fooling around?

However, thinking about it carefully, Professor McGonagall felt that this did not seem to be a strange thing.

Perhaps, the principal already knew this and was too lazy to mess around with Umbridge. The whispers from the surrounding students became more intense, and even the two Aurors were stunned.

Trelawny, who was unable to control her powers before, could only make prophecies under certain conditions. In the eyes of Umbridge and most people, Trelawney is a liar, but now Trelawney is backed by Albert, a charlatan, and she doesn't mind using this opportunity to be disgusting and try to expel her. of toad.

Umbridge's cheeks were so red that she couldn't even maintain her false smile. Trelawney's words were like a big **** slapped **** her face.

"Okay, I think we should send her away, so as not to affect other students here." Umbridge motioned to the two Aurors around her to take Trelawney away. She was going to find a place to teach this annoying person a lesson. The woman had a meal.

 The two Aurors looked at each other and walked towards Trelawney in full view of everyone.

Just when they were about to take action by force, something was thrown out of the crowd. It was like a deflated balloon, but what leaked out was a large cloud of white mist, and the hall was filled with smoke for a while.

In the chaos, a thud was heard falling to the ground, followed by Umbridge's scream.

When several professors manually dispersed the smoke, they found that the two Aurors who were about to attack Trelawney had fallen, and Umbridge somehow fell heavily to the ground. Her boots seemed to be damaged by some reason. Some reasons stuck to the ground. Just now when the white mist shrouded the Aurors and the Aurors were attacked, Umbridge accidentally fell down.

"How pitiful. I have reminded you more than once that the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is still there. Why don't you believe it?" Trelawney leaned over and looked at the embarrassed Umbridge, and scoffed sharply. .

Everyone carefully recalled what happened to all the Defense Against the Dark Arts professors, and they all looked at Umbridge with some sympathy.

"What happened here?" A voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd. Dumbledore finally appeared as the last audience member. He looked at the unexpected scene and strode through the crowd towards Professor Trelawney.

"It was a pleasure to see you before I left Hogwarts," Professor Trelawney said with a smile.

"You don't have to leave," Dumbledore said firmly. "I want you to stay, Sybil."

 After speaking, he turned to look at Professor McGonagall.

“Would you please take Sybil upstairs, Minerva?”

“Sure,” said Professor McGonagall. “Come upstairs, Sybil?”

"No, no, no need for Dumbledore. I just hope that after the toad goes away next year, I can return to school and continue to serve as professor of divination." Professor Trelawney rejected Dumbledore's kindness, "I know you have found a new one." Divination professor, but what we teach does not conflict. His divination knowledge can expand everyone’s knowledge, but it is not suitable for wizards, and he will eventually go back.”

"Oh, of course." Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly, "But where are you going?"

"I have found a safe temporary residence. It will be no problem to stay until next summer." Professor Trelawney bowed slightly towards the old man in front of her, expressing her gratitude for the care over the years. Then, she waved her wand and carried her luggage toward He walked toward the door and disappeared amidst the whispers of the students.

"so cool."

I don’t know who shouted secretly.

 “That’s disgusting.” Someone started to gag on Umbridge.

"Oh, my God, you seem to be hurt." Dumbledore seemed not to hear the whispers of the students around him.

 “Someone just attacked me,” Umbridge said angrily.

 “Why didn’t that person kill you?”

 In the crowd, I don’t know who spoke.

 Everyone looked at each other and looked around for someone to speak.

"Don't be angry, I suspect it's just a prank." Dumbledore said cheerfully: "I think it's just a Sticky Feet Charm."

 “Mischief, I don’t think so,” Umbridge screamed.

"Mr. Anderson, Miss McDougal, please send Professor Umbridge to the school hospital." Dumbledore didn't pay attention to Umbridge's words, and turned to the two student union presidents and said, "I think she needs to accept Pang's treatment now." Mrs. Frey’s treatment, of course, and the two over there.”

"No problem, you guys." Albert ordered four Slytherin students and motioned them to send the two Aurors to the school hospital on stretchers.

"And you two, help her to the school hospital." Albert ordered Malfoy and Goyle to help Umbridge.

"Okay, it's over. Let's all disperse." Dumbledore clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to stop crowding here.
