Chapter 174 You Must Not Know How This Professor’s Position Was Vacated.

After receiving Professor McGonagall's promise, Ivan went to the auditorium to eat in a good mood.

When he arrived, the auditorium was already packed with people. Fortunately, Hermione, Harry and Ron had left a place for him.

"Ivan, why are you here so late?" Hermione was struggling with a piece of steak, turned her head and asked.

"I'm just asking Professor McGonagall for some questions." Ivan smiled and said casually without revealing too much information.

Animagus transformation is a secret. Although he can trust Hermione, the less people know about this kind of thing, the safer it is.

"No wonder you're so good at transfiguration!" Hermione said with some annoyance.

The little witch somewhat understood the gap between herself and Ivan. It must be that she didn't work hard enough and didn't actively ask professors in various subjects for advice!

Remembering that Ivan often worked hard to practice transfiguration while eating when he was in school, Hermione also started practicing with the nearest cup, and asked for advice on how to release transfiguration from time to time, to which Ivan answered one by one.

The two scumbags, Harry and Ron, couldn't get a word in at all, so they could only complain to each other about the recent bad luck.

Ron, in particular, kept complaining that there was something wrong with his wand. Harry reluctantly asked him to write home and ask for another one, but Ron refused directly because he didn't want to be scolded again.

Ivan suddenly thought of something and asked.

"Ron, can you show me your broken wand?"

Ivan has always been curious about the method of making a wand.

However, he usually didn't have extra wands to study, and he didn't really want to break apart the intact wands to take a look, so Ron's broken one aroused his interest.

"Of course, Ivan, can you fix it?" Ron immediately handed over his wand and looked at Ivan expectantly.

After Ivan took the wand, he looked at it carefully and found that the wand was very damaged and almost broke into two pieces. There were only some wood fibers in the middle that were barely connected, and the outside was repaired by Ron with magic glue. once to keep the wand from falling off.

After opening the system bar, the information is clearly displayed.

[Magic Item: Wand (Ash, Unicorn Hair)

Magic: Low (medium)

Special status: broken

Explanation: This is a severely damaged wand. Although the core of the wand is not damaged, there is a certain probability that you will be hurt when you use this wand to cast spells. 】

"Maybe it can be repaired, but I can't guarantee it!" Ivan felt somewhat confident after seeing the instructions, but he was still unsure.

"Then do whatever you want, it's bad enough now anyway." Ron said nonchalantly, he was angry when he saw the wand now.

Ivan nodded and temporarily put away the wand.

Hermione suddenly remembered something at this moment. "Ron, you gave your wand to Ivan, what about the next Defense Against the Dark Arts class?"

"Believe me, in the next Defense Against Dark Arts class, the wand will not be used!" Ivan said.

"Why?" Hermione said expectantly, holding a brand new timetable in her hand, with Lockhart's classes circled in heart shapes. "I think Professor Lockhart will definitely let us learn some new spells!"

Ivan looked at Hermione with a strange expression. He thought Lockhart's ruthless behavior in Diagon Alley had broken Hermione's heart.

But I believe this Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson will definitely impress Hermione.

"Even if we are taught a new spell next class, I can't use that broken wand to release it." Ron was very tolerant, since he would make a fool of himself anyway.

Harry had a vague feeling that Lockhart's teaching was absolutely terrible, because he didn't look like a serious professor.

It turned out to be worse than they imagined, or they ran into trouble on the way to class.

A first grade boy with gray hair who looked very thin was blocking the road in the middle of the road. He was holding a Muggle camera. When he saw Harry, he blushed and rushed forward impatiently.

"Hello, Harry? My name is Colin Creevey, and I am also in Gryffindor House. Can I take a picture of you?"

Photograph? Harry was very confused, no one had ever asked him like this before.

Colin seemed very enthusiastic. He rambled on about Harry's legendary deeds, such as how Harry escaped from the murderous hands of the mysterious man, and even planned to ask Harry to sign an autograph for him.

Ivan glanced at Harry sympathetically. It seems that being famous is not always a good thing, and sometimes it can cause trouble.

But what Ivan didn't expect was that this little devil named Colin Creevey would soon target him again after telling Harry's legendary deeds.

"Also, you are Ivan Hals, right? I've read the newspapers these days, my God, it says you are the savior of werewolves, the best potion genius in hundreds of years!

I heard from a senior named Seamus that you killed a giant monster when you first entered school, and at the end of the semester you rode a giant dragon flying in the sky breathing fire."

Colin was so excited that he was almost speechless. He did not expect that not long after he entered Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he would meet his idols and be assigned to the same academy as them!

This is simply awesome!

The corner of Ivan's mouth twitched, and looking at Colin who was excitedly trying to pull him to take a photo, he finally understood Harry's usual troubles.

Colin suddenly seemed to have thought of something and screamed loudly. "By the way, I also know that you killed a professor named Chino last school year!"

Colin Creevey's high-pitched scream suddenly spread throughout the corridor, attracting the attention of many young wizards, and then Lockhart's iconic voice rang out.

"what are you guys saying?"

Lockhart, dressed in fancy clothes, strode over from the other side of the corridor, squeezed past the little wizards surrounding him, and then asked with interest.

"Someone killed a professor? Who? Which professor died?"

"It's the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor named Kino! He is a liar and an evil dark wizard. He deceived everyone with his superb disguise, but Hals discovered the clues."

Colin seemed very excited when chatting about the gossip, talking about the gossip he heard from nowhere, and did not feel that there was anything wrong with Lockhart's face at all.

"In the end, Hals prevented Professor Kino from attacking the Forbidden Forest Warden, and successfully killed him with Harry. That's why Principal Dumbledore asked Professor Lockhart to take over this position this year."
