A Certain Magical Hogwarts

Chapter 832 Umbridge's Fear

early morning,

Umbridge was woken up by the hard wooden planks of his bed in the attic of the school hospital.

Although she felt physically uncomfortable, she felt very comfortable in her heart.

She exaggerated the problems at Hogwarts by bringing up her own experience of being attacked by Peeves, and asked Fudge for a lot of permissions.

Despite the immense pressure, Fudge actually gave it to her.

That's how those educational orders came about.

Umbridge certainly knew the reason:

Investigators from the International Confederation of Wizards have moved into the Ministry of Magic, and Minister Fudge is at his wits' end, resorting to desperate measures.

After so many reports, even Umbridge is starting to believe that the Mystic has really returned.

Not to mention others?

Those who still don't believe it are probably only Fudge himself and his die-hard fans.

Power had completely blinded him.

Forget about the five-year agreement; Umbridge seriously doubts that Fudge will survive this Christmas.

But there's no doubt he has no chance in the election early next year.

Umbridge didn't regret betting on the wrong stock, after all, she had gotten to where she is today step by step with Fudge's help.

But seeing that the wrecked ship was about to sink, she naturally wanted to get off the ship early, grab the buckets, and run away.

Running away isn't so easy... If you get on the wrong ship again, you might be completely finished.

Dumbledore's ship certainly won't accommodate her.

After much deliberation, Umbridge concluded that only the mysterious man's boat could allow her to cross the river.

Why choose a mysterious person?

the reason is simple.

Umbridge repeatedly locked Harry Potter in solitary confinement, carefully observing the boy who had miraculously survived.

This is a little wizard who is good for nothing except anger.

He didn't possess the exceptional magical talent of Stark, nor was he as intelligent as Granger.

The Dark Lord's failure back then was probably just bad luck.

Umbridge doesn't believe that the resurrected Mystic will stumble on Potter again.

Next, it will surely be the era of the Dark Lord!

The more she targets Dumbledore and Stark, the more she will thrive in the new era once the Dark Lord returns, even if Fudge falls!

Umbridge is shrewd!

She would never allow Fudge's downfall to affect her political career.

But wouldn't it be dangerous to do such things at Hogwarts?

There are definitely dangers, like in the bathroom last time... but they won't be fatal.

Umbridge has seen through Dumbledore.

Dumbledore is a "saint", a "perfect man", and a "good man".

As long as one acts within the bounds of the rules, and as long as one carries Minister Fouché's orders and acts with impunity... no matter what one does, the principal won't do anything to him.

This is Dumbledore!

Otherwise, how could Fudge have used his political skills to remove Dumbledore from his position?

Dumbledore is a great wizard, possessing the most powerful abilities... Umbridge acknowledges this.

But this man practiced self-discipline his entire life.

Having spent so many years navigating the Ministry of Magic, Umbridge was certain she hadn't misjudged this.

The only variable is Stark.

Is he as self-disciplined as Dumbledore?

This educational order was just a small test for her.

What would the Starks do if they didn't give Ravenclaw a Quidditch team?

If he cowardly accepts without uttering a word, Umbridge will go even further and become even more ruthless.

Of course, the necessary protections should still be provided.

Umbridge has had Aurors guarding the door day and night; she doesn't believe anyone can attack her at Hogwarts.

After reviewing the recent actions, Umbridge found no flaws.

She opened her eyes and felt a sharp pain in her lower back. She tried to turn over, but then she heard the sound of a plate shattering.

Umbridge sat up in alarm, looked down, and was instantly struck dumb. His face turned deathly pale, and his body began to tremble violently.

Her favorite plate was placed on the quilt.

The plates originally depicted brightly colored cats wearing bows, frolicking and playing.

But now, they've all turned into skeletons, blood trickling from their eyes, staring at her with ferocious expressions.

In addition to these, there was a clipped newspaper stuck in the wooden door.

The content concerns the educational directives issued in the past few days.

Simple and straightforward!

Umbridge was instantly drenched in cold sweat.

The Auror stood guard at the entrance, and there was magic all around to prevent Peeves from getting in!

Most importantly, Umbridge recognized him:

These plates weren't from the Defense Against the Dark Arts office; they were decorations she placed in the office of the Undersecretary of Magic!

The last thing she liked was hidden in the heavily guarded Ministry of Magic, and placed on her bed without anyone noticing.

A blatant threat!

Umbridge clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her skin, but she forgot the pain, only feeling fear.

She didn't know who did it, but it was definitely someone influenced by the education order.

Only Stark and Granger possessed the ability and means to do so.

Umbridge had always felt safe, but now it seems he was so wrong.

With the Aurors protecting her, how could the enemy enter silently and kill her without a sound?

Umbridge's hands trembled.

It seems that unless you are absolutely certain of success, it's best not to provoke that man for now.

……

……

After a day's delay, William went to Umbridge again, and she indeed approved the formation of Quidditch.

Her attitude also became much more humble, as if William were her father.

Qiu and Cedric marveled at the sight.

So, violence still works.

William had originally intended to behead her owl and throw it onto her bed.

But after thinking about it, I decided to use the decorations from her office.

After all, William is a "cat lover".

Even with the Quidditch problem solved, William remained vigilant.

Umbridge won't give up so easily; she'll cause more trouble, but she certainly won't act unless it's a decisive blow.

Akali training classes have long since gone underground, unlike last year when they were conducted openly.

There's no need to worry about the classroom.

Dumbledore granted him several empty classrooms.

Meanwhile, William cast a wizard banishment spell outside the classroom.

This spell was cast by Voldemort outside his Horcrux cave, and it's similar to the "Muggle Expulsion Charm".

But it belongs to William now.

William learned so much from Voldemort!

What a kind person.

Prior to this, he had Hermione create a batch of agreements, all of which contained curses.

He strictly told the students that once they entered the intensive course, they would need to sign an agreement.

If you attempt to leak this information to others... you will be cursed.

With Hermione's current expertise in curses, no student could possibly break the curse and then betray her.

Some students were hesitant, but when they thought about how they wouldn't learn anything at Umbridge's courses, they eventually agreed.

Even because of Umbridge, many students from other grades want to attend the tutoring center.

They're all here because of William.

But none of that matters, because at the end of November, Hagrid finally returned.
