Hogwarts: Undercover Death Eater Replaces the Dark Lord

"It depends on what kind of job you want to do in the future, Draco." Pansy Parkinson came over and gave Draco earnest advice. "I know your family is not short of money, but if you want to develop the Malfoy family better, you still have to find a relatively good job."

"I recommend Divination to you. I heard that if you master Divination, you can avoid some risks in your family's business in the future... Oh, only an idiot would choose Muggle Studies. Who would want to learn about such a dirty species as Muggles?"

As Pansy said this, Draco couldn't help but glance at Lecos next to him.

Then he saw that Lycos had simply put a tick behind Muggle Studies.

"Lex, why did you choose Muggle Studies?" he asked in surprise.

Pansy also looked at him in disbelief, obviously puzzled as to why a Slytherin student would be interested in Muggle Studies.

"I heard this subject is easy to score in, so I'll give it a try." Lycos said casually.

In his opinion, there weren't many reliable elective courses. For example, Professor Trelawney, who taught divination, was only a prophet in certain situations, and was usually just a madwoman.

Hagrid will be teaching the Care of Magical Creatures class next year. Lycos is well aware that there will be teaching accidents, so he might as well find a way to get close to Newt Scamander in the future.

And then there's alchemy. This subject has almost disappeared at Hogwarts because it's too difficult and requires too much knowledge to master. Even a genius like Nicolas Flamel took hundreds of years to become a master of alchemy.

In comparison, numerology and ancient runes are more reliable, as they are subjects that can affect one's own magical abilities.

As for the Muggle Studies class, it was because Lecos had already had a lot of communication with Professor Bubbaji, and he also realized the advantages of using magic to transform Muggle products, so he chose this course to expand his knowledge.

"Cassandra, what courses did you choose?" Lycos stood up and walked to the sofa where the little blonde witch often sat, looking at her elective form curiously.

Then he was surprised to find that... the little witch had ticked the box behind every subject.

"Do you really want to choose all of them?" Lycos frowned and said in a low voice, "The time turner is not something that can be easily controlled."

"I want to try." Cassandra's expression was calm.

Lycos discovered that the look in her eyes at this moment was different from any look he had seen before. It was particularly complicated and depressed, as if it contained an old story.

"You..." Lycos suddenly had a guess that surprised even himself.

He had always thought that Cassandra, like himself, came from a strange world... Even though Cassandra seemed to have her own magic system, was good at using many rare magics, and could control many difficult-to-control spells, he did not feel too curious.

Yet, at this moment, Cassandra actually displayed such a complicated expression towards a Time Turner that she hadn't even gotten yet...

Lycos couldn't help but think about this.

His eyes trembled slightly, and he came up with an incredible guess -

Could it be that Cassandra is from the wizarding future and has used a time-turner to travel back in time?

……

Chapter 160 The Disappearing Time Converter

But Lycos immediately denied his guess.

If she had used a time-turner to travel back in time, then Cassandra's mature behavior wouldn't be that of a little witch who had been attending Hogwarts since she was eleven.

Because the time-turner only allows the user to go back in time, rather than changing the user's age.

"What are you thinking about?" Cassandra suddenly raised her head and curled the corners of her lips slightly.

The complicated and depressed look in her eyes seemed to disappear in an instant.

"You..." Lycos hesitated for a long time, but in the end did not ask the question he had just thought of. He just changed the subject and said, "Are you sure you want to take all the electives?"

"Of course." Cassandra nodded slightly. "I want to see for myself what a Time Turner looks like."

Lycos looked quietly at Cassandra's soft blond hair and green eyes, then he let out a long breath and his eyes became determined.

He didn't say anything else, but placed the application form in his hand on the table in front of Cassandra, casually took out the quill pen at the little witch's hand, and smoothly typed five check marks on the form.

Here are all the electives available to choose from.

As for the elective course of Alchemy, it is an early introduction. Only after passing the ordinary wizard level examination in ancient runes can one study it in the intensive class in the sixth grade. Second-year wizards do not need to tick the box behind this course.

"Actually, you don't have to come with me..." Cassandra's eyes blurred for a moment, "Don't you think the Time Turner is dangerous?"

"I regret it now," Lycos said expressionlessly. "How could I miss out on something as magical as a time-turner? Taking all the courses might make me regret it for a few years, but not taking any would probably make me regret it for the rest of my life."

"No, you don't understand me." Cassandra shook her head. "A lot of the content in these elective courses is something I've already learned. I don't need to learn it all over again... But I know you're different. You don't need to suffer this."

"Don't you still have me?" Lycos put the quill back into Cassandra's inkwell, a faint smile on his face. "If I can't learn, remember to give me extra lessons."

Cassandra's big green eyes stared into Lycos's eyes quietly without blinking, and Lycos also looked into her eyes without hesitation.

It was a long time before she lowered her eyes, with the corners of her lips slightly raised.

"it is good."

……

There is a two-week holiday during Easter.

However, just like last year, because there are only more than two months left before the final exams, the professors have assigned a lot of homework during this short holiday, so few young wizards choose to go home at this time.

Besides those homeworks, Lycos has more troubles than other students...

"come in."

On the second floor of the Hogwarts main tower, Professor McGonagall's serious voice came from the Vice-Principal's office.

Lycos and Cassandra walked into the office one after another, closed the door, and found that a little witch was already waiting in the office, fidgeting with the hem of her school robe with her fingertips.

"Good morning, Professor McGonagall." Lecos greeted Professor McGonagall with a serious face.

"Good morning, Mr. Hayden, Miss Worley, and Miss Granger." Professor McGonagall said with a straight face and a meticulous nod, "Do you know why I called you three here today?"

"Not sure, Professor." Lycos shook his head.

In fact, he had already guessed the reason, but there was no need to say it... If he, Cassandra, and Hermione had anything in common, it would probably be that they chose all the elective courses.

Today, Professor McGonagall will probably explain the matter of the time turner to them.

Sure enough, the vice-principal then adjusted his glasses, looked at the three of them seriously and said:

"In all my years of teaching, this is the first time I've seen three students take all the elective courses at the same time. I'm curious, do you really know your own abilities?"

"Professor, I can do it!" Hermione raised her hand first and said loudly, "I've always been the best at studying. I've gotten excellent grades in every subject I've studied..."

"Miss Granger, I know you're good at studying." Professor McGonagall's expression softened a little, "But have you ever considered that if you take all the courses, you won't be able to schedule a week."

"But... I heard that Bill and Percy both got twelve OWLs." Hermione said hesitantly, "I... I think I can do it too, otherwise I would definitely not be willing to give up."

Professor McGonagall didn't answer Hermione, but turned her attention to Lycos and Cassandra.

"What about you, Mr. Hayden and Miss Worley?" she asked. "You weren't the top students, so why did you suddenly want to take all the subjects?"

Perhaps for some reason, Cassandra's presence has always been low, and she is accustomed to lowering her grades, so her grades are only above average in the entire grade.

As for Lycos, although he didn't have the same low scores as Cassandra, he never really studied subjects like History of Magic and Astronomy, which were of little use to him...

Therefore, Lecos's overall score is not among the best.

In Professor McGonagall's eyes, it was quite strange that two students who were not so fond of studying suddenly chose all the elective courses, which was uncharacteristically strange.

"Because I'm curious about every subject," Lycos said, speaking first of all the reasons he had prepared long ago. "You have to learn everything first. It would be a shame if you missed out."

"That's not a convincing reason." Professor McGonagall frowned and looked at Cassandra beside Lycos. "What about you, Miss Vore?"

Cassandra's face remained as cold as ever when facing anyone other than Lycos.

“No reason, I just wanted to choose.”

She didn't even bother to come up with a reason.

Professor McGonagall was obviously annoyed by her casualness and pursed her lips tightly.

"No matter what your reasons are for wanting to take all the elective courses, I must warn you of one thing in advance—" she said with extreme seriousness, "If you want to take more courses than others, you must work much harder than others!"

"Miss Granger is right. Bill Weasley and Percy Weasley both obtained twelve Ordinary Wizarding Level Certificates, but that was the reward for their efforts that were many times greater than others!"

"If you choose to regret, now is your last chance!"

Professor McGonagall looked sternly at the three young wizards in front of her, trying to force them to retreat in this way.

But Hermione, needless to say, really loves learning and will naturally not run away at the critical moment; Lekos and Cassandra's goal is not those elective courses at all, but the time converter behind it.

Now that I'm here, it would be a shame to leave without seeing the Time Converter.

So, the three of them shook their heads at the same time and rejected Professor McGonagall's kindness.

"Very good, since you both have no intention of backing down, I will tell you how to resolve the time conflict." Professor McGonagall nodded helplessly and opened the drawer of her desk.

Lycos' eyes widened slightly, revealing a hint of anticipation.

However, the next moment, he saw Professor McGonagall take out several pieces of parchment with dense handwriting from the drawer.

"These are the approximate teaching schedules for each elective course." Professor McGonagall said meticulously under Lycos's stunned gaze, "The professors of the elective courses will teach according to this schedule. You can choose to study in different classes according to your own learning progress..."

"All you need to do is use the extremely limited time to learn the content of each subject at each stage... Every day after dinner, the professors will stay in their offices for a while, and during this time you can ask questions about anything you don't understand."

"Remember, make sure to take advantage of weekends, dinner, and lunch breaks. Since you've chosen all these electives, you should spend a lot of time on self-study. Don't be like other students who just play around after class..."

Lycos stood there in a daze, listening to Professor McGonagall's endless narration, and felt that something was wrong no matter how he thought about it.

That's not right. They have chosen all the elective courses. Shouldn't each of them be given a time converter so that they can reverse time and go back to the past to take another course?

Why did Professor McGonagall talk about self-study, making use of every minute and every second, using other people's playing time to study... these famous quotes that only appeared in the Hengshui teaching method in the previous life?

too weird.

"What's wrong, Mr. Hayden? He seems to have some questions?" Professor McGonagall seemed to see Lex's confusion and temporarily stopped explaining the study method. "Tell me your questions."

"Um..." Lycos chose his words carefully and said slowly, "Professor, isn't there any other way for us to not miss any class?"

"Don't even think about it," Professor McGonagall said decisively. "Professors also need to rest. They have no obligation to give you extra lessons during their breaks."

"That's not what I meant." Lycos shook his head. "What I meant was, is there any magic prop that can allow us to take two courses at the same time..."

Lycos felt that what he said was obvious enough. As long as Professor McGonagall knew about things like the Time Turner, she should know what he meant.

However, Professor McGonagall seemed to have no idea what he was talking about and thought he was referring to something else -

"Oh, if you have a good friend who is willing to record the lectures for you, I'm sure the generous professors won't mind," she said. "But it's best if you only watch these videos in private and don't share them with anyone else."

Lycos: “…”

He and Cassandra looked at each other and saw the confusion in their eyes.

It's natural that Professor McGonagall doesn't want them to have the Time-Turner.
