Chapter 470: Umbridge Responds to the Opponent's Move with Grief and Anger (1/2)

Chapter 470: Umbridge is angry and sad.

"What Mr. Malfoy said just now makes a lot of sense. He is going to teach students from two colleges, not just a few people." Umbridge said with a smug smile, "If students can't see the magical animals he is going to teach, then there is no point in this class. It is better to hand out a picture book and let everyone see it by themselves than to teach in the air."

Hagrid's face changed slightly. Just as he was about to explain something, he saw Aaron gave him a reassuring look.

"Professor Umbridge, you don't have to worry about this issue. Professor Hagrid has discussed it with me."

"Discuss?" Umbridge chuckled, "Discuss what?"

Snap!

Aaron snapped his fingers, and several huge black horses suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

There was an uproar at the scene. Everyone was shocked by the huge black creature that was skinny, had a horse's body, a dragon's head, and bat's wings.

"What's going on?" Umbridge asked in surprise.

"Illusion." Aaron explained calmly, "I just let everyone see what I can see. Professor Hagrid was worried that everyone couldn't see it, so he came to me to discuss it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have planned to take out the Thestrals. It's easier to distinguish between hedgehogs and hedgehogs.

Isn't it, Professor Hagrid?"

"Ah? Yes, that's it." Hagrid said seriously, and he almost cried when he saw Aaron was moved.

What a good child!

In order to help him out, he made up such a story, and he almost believed it himself.

"Good! That's great." Umbridge said with a strong temper, "Even if you have been prepared for a long time, the Ministry of Magic has already listed the Thestrals as 'dangerous animals'."

"The Thestrals are not dangerous." Hagrid smiled easily, "Of course, if you really provoke it, it may bite you."

"Show pleasure in cruelty." Umbridge wrote a line of words on the writing board happily.

"Um... Professor, I think this sentence is debatable!"

"Does Mr. Gaius have any questions?"

"No, how dare I have any questions!

But I have a small doubt to ask Professor Umbridge." Aaron pursed his lips, "I wonder if you think cats are dangerous animals?"

"Of course not." Umbridge said without hesitation.

"If you make a cat angry, will it scratch you?"

"You, what do you want to say?"

Aaron looked at Umbridge's writing board and said meaningfully: "I just think this sentence is not quite correct, what do you think?

Of course, if the Ministry of Magic orders cats to be listed as dangerous animals, then I will pretend that I said nothing."

Huh!

Umbridge took a few deep breaths and crossed out the line in front of Aaron.

"Are you satisfied with this?"

"I can't say that, I can only say that the professor is wise."

"Hagrid, do you mind if I ask someone among the students a question?" Umbridge gave Aaron a provocative look, and then looked at Pansy Parkinson in Slytherin, "Ms. Parkinson, do you think you can understand what Professor Hagrid is saying?"

"Ah this..." Pansy looked at Aaron hesitantly. She really wanted to seize this opportunity to kick someone when he was down, but she had to give face to some people.

After all, he was in Slytherin. Although Aaron was usually low-key, his prestige in Slytherin was second only to Dean Snape.

"Why are you looking at him? Look at me." Umbridge walked up to Pansy and blocked her sight. "Don't have any scruples. Tell the truth. I have your back."

"Tell the truth!" Aaron said indifferently.

Pansy wanted to cry but had no tears. Was this the truth she knew? What if she said it wrong?

"Say whatever you want to say. Professor Umbridge won't give up until she gets the answer she wants today."

Pansy understood immediately and breathed a sigh of relief. It was not pleasant to be caught between these two people.

"Professor, Professor Hagrid's words are really hard to understand."

Umbridge nodded with satisfaction and quickly wrote something on the writing board.

"Ahem!"

Aaron suddenly coughed.

Umbridge paused and pretended not to hear.

"Professor." Aaron walked directly to Umbridge, "I have a small suggestion that you may find interesting."

"Forget it." Umbridge politely refused, she raised the writing board in her hand, "Miss Parkinson gave me a very fair evaluation."

"That's natural, but... it would be somewhat unfair for the senior investigator sent by the Ministry of Magic to only investigate Slytherin. If this gets out, it will affect the reputation of Minister Cornelius Fudge..."

"Shut up." Umbridge roared in anger, but looking at the dozens of eyes around her, she only took a moment to show a warm smile, "Mr. Gaius, why don't you tell me your suggestion."

"It's simple. We guarantee fairness and justice." Aaron said confidently, "Pansy is the Slytherin prefect. Her words are very representative, but I think the Gryffindor prefect should be equally representative, right?"

Hearing this, Hermione and Ron smiled at each other. If they had the initiative, everything would be different. At least Hagrid would be safe.

Umbridge's expression froze. She felt extremely humiliated. This was the first time she had suffered such a great injustice in more than two months at Hogwarts.

Asking the Gryffindor prefect for evaluation, wouldn't it be obvious that she let Hagrid, a diehard fan of Dumbledore, go free?

"Uh... Mr. Gaius, this is unnecessary!"

"Whatever you say is what it is, but if it gets out..."

"No, it's not." Umbridge interrupted immediately, and then crossed out the comment on the writing board for the third time, "I just think it's a bit hasty."

"Okay! Since you said so, professor, you must have your own considerations."

Umbridge forced a smile that was uglier than crying. If she hadn't crossed out this comment, it would probably be a different story.

"Longbottom, you can see the Thestrals, right?

Whose death did you see?"

"My grandfather." Neville said in a low voice.

"What do you think of them?" Umbridge asked, "Are you afraid?"

"Well... they are all good." Neville said nervously.

"Students dare not admit to being afraid." Umbridge wrote as she spoke, and soon there was an extra line of words on the writing board.

"Ahem!"

Hearing the cough, Umbridge felt as if the volcano in her heart suddenly erupted, and her anger went straight from the soles of her feet to her head.

She had been coughing in other people's classes all this time, but she didn't expect that today she would be caught in a trap and be pressed down by a student.

Swish!

Umbridge tore off a page of paper on the writing board, then turned around and looked at Aaron angrily, "Mr. Gaius, is there anything else?"

"Uh... Professor, you may have misunderstood something." Aaron rubbed his neck embarrassedly, "I just have a little sore throat recently, please continue."

Umbridge:......

Don't be angry, I can be not angry, my body is my own.

He can help Hagrid once or twice, even three or four times, but he can't help him all the time.

"This is the end of the inspection of the professor of Care of Magical Creatures." Umbridge put away the writing board, and then looked at Hagrid with interest, "But since you came back late, Professor Hagrid, we have to inspect a few more times. Do you have any objections?"

Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"That's good." Umbridge gave Aaron a faint smile and hurried away from the students.

"Ahem!" Hagrid coughed, "Now continue the class.

This is Wuwu, it is the first Thestral born in this forest, and it is also my favorite.

Thestrals are one of the species of Pegasus. After being tamed, they will be loyal to their masters.

They have a good sense of direction. Just tell it where you want to go and it will take you there. And it is very fast, faster than a flying broom, even Buckbeak can't compare..."

Everyone has a preliminary understanding of the creature called the Thestrals, and they have not encountered any danger.

However, due to the superstition that the Thestrals are unlucky in the magic world, students have a kind of heartfelt awe for them, and few dare to approach them.

More than half an hour later, the first class after Hagrid's return officially ended.

He walked quickly to Aaron, and Draco and others beside him left very tactfully.

"Thank you very much this time, otherwise Umbridge would have belittled me to no end."

"You're welcome." Aaron waved his hand indifferently, "You gave me a bunch of feathers of magical animals. It would be too unkind to turn a blind eye to them."

He valued Hagrid as a supplier very much. If he was kicked out of Hogwarts by Umbridge, he would have to go to the Forbidden Forest to collect feathers of magical animals himself in the future.

"But I still have to remind you that there is only a thief who can steal for a thousand days, but there is no such thing as a thief who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. Umbridge will definitely not let you go so easily."

"I can see that too." Hagrid said sadly, "I felt full of malice when I saw her."

"We warned you." Hermione walked over and said, "A very serious reminder."

"How could I have thought that she was so disgusting!"

Hagrid was indignant. He had lived for most of his life and thought that no one except the Dursleys could refresh his cognition, but he didn't expect to encounter such a weirdo today.

"But the Thestrals are really interesting." Harry said, "It reminds me of Buckbeak."

"Want to go up and sit?" Hagrid asked meaningfully.

Harry was a little tempted, but thought that Umbridge might know about this, and it would be bad if it had a bad impact on Hagrid.

"Uh... next time!"

......

It was December, and as Christmas approached, the work of the prefects became heavier.

In addition to organizing people to decorate the castle, they also had to take care of the underclassmen who were a little too active because of the holiday.

Aaron was even busier, and he had to organize the D.A.'s Defense Against the Dark Arts training.

The Room of Requirement, the last class before Christmas.

Thirty students from different grades and colleges sat on chairs, and Aaron on the podium was serious, "The Stunning Spell, the spell is to faint on the ground, and the effect is to knock the enemy unconscious.

This is the most commonly used spell in Defense Against the Dark Arts, with less lethality, but consumes less magic power."

"Raise your hands if you know this spell now."

As soon as the voice fell, thirty people raised their right hands in unison.

Aaron laughed dumbly, this scene was exactly the same as when he taught them the Disarming Spell.

"Let me say this in advance. If you know it, you know it. If you don't, you don't.

I'll give you one more chance. If you know it, I won't teach you. Just practice directly."

The Creevey brothers hesitated for a while and put their hands down in disappointment. In addition to them, there was a Ravenclaw and two Hufflepuffs.

"Alas! I hope you can be more honest in class in the future. After all, you are not learning it for me." Aaron said speechlessly, and then turned the ground into a huge cushion.

"Harry, you are responsible for teaching them."

"Me?"

"Of course you, it's not like you don't know the Stunning Spell."

"Got it."

"The rest of you practice in pairs."

Everyone separated consciously, and the sound of "fainting" soon rang out in the classroom.

Aaron patrolled the classroom to avoid possible accidents during practice.

Fred and George saw him coming and sandwiched him in the middle on the left and right.

"Did you forget something?" Fred said meaningfully.

"We have already mastered five spells." George added, "Where is the promised Patronus Charm?"

"This..." Aaron thought for a moment and said, "Let's teach you after the Christmas holiday!"

"Ah?"

"What? You don't think you can learn the Patronus Charm in one class!"

The two looked at each other and sighed helplessly.

They still have self-knowledge. The Patronus Charm is a difficult magic, and they are not sure they can learn it in a short time.

The class ended quickly, and everyone left the Room of Requirement in twos and threes in the night.

Aaron returned to the common room and went to the Shenming Hall. The hall was covered with a thick layer of white snow, and the silver crystals hung upside down on the ceiling sparkled.

Several black shadow ninjas were decorating a huge Christmas tree to create a festive atmosphere.

"Merry Christmas." The thought body greeted.

"Not bad!" Aaron stretched his waist and lay directly on a bed, "I can relax before the holiday is over.

I have been very busy these days, teaching 30 wizards of varying levels of Defense Against the Dark Arts, preparing lessons, training, and sometimes one-on-one tutoring."

"So this is why you confidently leave all the homework to me?"

"You misunderstood, even if there is no tutoring class, the homework is left to you."

"I think so too." The thought body said unhappily, and then transmitted all the experience of drawing magic circles this semester to the mind of the main body.

After receiving it, Aaron's face also showed a touch of joy.

Combined with the experience of these few months, the ultimate magic circle of the five elemental magics can be completed in half a minute.

The advanced magic circles of light magic and dark magic can also be cast instantly, but the consumption of high-level magic of these two elements is greater, so it must be used with caution.
