"Then, before the actual combat, please let my teaching assistant, Miss Hermione Granger, teach you some basic knowledge of the Dark Arts."
Hermione stepped forward.
This was not a surprise attack, but something she and Lockhart had discussed long ago.
Since the last class, perhaps because he knew he could not complete the teaching, or perhaps because the deception that night made him trust Hermione very much, Lockhart gave her full authority to arrange the teaching content.
Although he was still a professor in name at this time, the two had actually swapped roles.
Seeing that all eyes were on her, Hermione said:
"Defense Against the Dark Arts teaches you how to protect yourself from dark magic and dark creatures. I believe that in the previous courses, you have more or less come into contact with and understood dark creatures."
"Now, who can tell me what black magic is?"
The wizards in the audience looked at each other.
Although Hermione was about the same age as them and didn't talk much, her few words gave people a sense of unquestionable aura.
The aura he exudes is far beyond that of Quirrell and Lockhart, and even Snape, who is recognized to be very oppressive, is slightly inferior to him.
Is this the witch of Gryffindor... everyone thought silently in their hearts.
A Hufflepuff boy raised his hand.
"name?"
Hermione looked at him.
Feeling the witch's gaze, the boy swallowed his saliva and mustered up his courage and said:
"Justine Finch-Fletchley, Miss Witch."
Hermione paused.
This was the first time she was addressed as such in public.
"Very well, continue."
Seeing Hermione's affirmation, Justin became much bolder:
"Dark magic is magic that is specifically used to harm, control, or even kill others. It is a very evil magic."
Hermione nodded:
"Then, who can tell me what the Unforgivable Curses, known as the three top black magics, are?"
Chapter 84: One Stick Three Combos
Upon hearing the "Unforgivable Curse", the students present couldn't help but hold their breath.
Taking a deep breath, Justin said:
"The Unforgivable Curses are the Imperius Curse, the Cruciatus Curse, and..."
At this point, he paused.
"Avada Kedavra."
"That's right," said Hermione, "These are the three spells that evil dark wizards like to use the most, corresponding to control, torture, and killing."
"I have always believed that if you want to defend yourself against these dark arts, you must first understand them."
"How can we talk about defense if we don't even know what effect they can have?"
"so……"
Looking at Hermione's gradually raised mouth corners, Snape suddenly had a bad feeling.
This girl, is she going to...
The next second, his premonition became reality.
"Let us witness with our own eyes what the Unforgivable Curse is."
Hermione chose to directly steal Barty Crouch Jr.'s lesson plan.
Ah, what an excellent lesson plan.
No need to be sorry.
As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes widened.
Oh shit... Lockhart almost choked and looked at Hermione in horror.
I asked you to prepare a teaching plan and this is all you teach?!
Even he knew how taboo this thing was.
"The Ministry of Magic has always said that wizards who are too young are not suitable to know the three dark arts, but I don't think so."
Hermione's voice was a little cold.
"To defend against the dark arts, one must always be prepared to face them."
Then he took out a small box and opened it.
A small spider the size of a palm appeared.
"Get bigger quickly!"
The spider instantly turned into a giant spider half the size of a human.
"This is a giant eight-eyed spider that I caught in the Forbidden Forest last night. It is a typical dark creature, cruel and murderous, and likes to eat human flesh and blood."
"I made it smaller and put it in a box. What you see now is its original appearance."
A giant spider half a man's height was on the stage, raising its fangs and making a hissing sound.
The hideous and terrifying appearance made the people around step back and scream.
"Ah!" Parvati let out a piercing scream and clutched Lavender's hand tightly.
Justin's face turned pale and his legs couldn't stop shaking.
Just as the eight-eyed giant spider pounced on Justin who was closest to it, its fangs were about to pierce the latter's skin.
"The soul is out of body!"
A faint voice sounded.
Hermione pointed her wand at the giant spider, which immediately stopped attacking and stood quietly where it was. Only Justin, still in shock, was still gasping for breath.
"go with!"
The magic wand pointed to the window, and the giant spider walked past the crowd and climbed up to the window like a puppet being controlled by strings.
Then he pointed at Lockhart.
The latter's body stiffened.
Just as I was about to step back, I heard Hermione say:
"Professor Lockhart, you are our official professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. I, an assistant, am working so hard to assist you in teaching."
"Don't tell me you're going to do something you shouldn't do right now."
"If you move again, I will lift the Imperius Curse and let you deal with this thing on your own."
Seeing the threat in Hermione's eyes, Lockhart forced a smile and stood where he was, suppressing his fear.
He felt like he was about to break out in a cold sweat.
Seeing the giant spider crawling onto Lockhart, but obeying orders obediently and showing no intention of attacking, exclamations were heard from all around.
"Yes, this is the Imperius Curse. A person who is cursed will lose his or her will and become a puppet who only knows how to obey the orders of the caster."
Hermione said calmly:
"I guess you don't want to end up like this, so remember everything you saw today."
"Neville!"
Hermione suddenly looked at Neville.
Neville was startled and shook.
"Hermione, can I..."
Neville trembled.
"No," Hermione said with a cold look, "Crucio!"
Without waiting for Neville to finish, she attacked.
The air seemed to freeze.
A red light flashed on the eight-eyed giant spider's body, and then its entire body twisted and curled up, rolling on the ground.
"what!"
The giant spider screamed like a human, as if it was suffering from great pain.
Even though this pain is not directly inflicted on everyone, just looking at it makes one feel cold all over.
Neville couldn't bear this kind of stimulation. His face turned pale and his whole body was shaking.
Snape's eyes darkened.
There was a flash of pity in the eyes of the people around.
But due to the witch's terrifying aura, they dared not speak and could only turn their heads away.
Among the crowd, only Luna looked at Hermione without any fear, but with curiosity in her beautiful eyes.
Hermione walked over to Neville and squatted down.
"I know what happened in your family, but what happened in the past is over."
"If you can't overcome it, when the same thing happens to your relatives and friends again in the future, you will regret your weakness today."
Hermione's calm voice echoed through the hall.
Neville bit his lip hard, raised his head little by little, and forced himself to look at the scene in front of him.
His eyes were full of struggle.
Not until the effect of the Cruciatus Curse wore off did he lose all his strength and could no longer hold on. He fell to his knees, sweating profusely.
"better?"
Hermione's voice was soft.
Neville slowly raised his head, and although he looked weak, he still gave a relaxed smile.
"Much better, thank you."
Harry and the others looked at each other. They now knew that Hermione meant well, but wasn't this method a bit... too extreme?
Ron swallowed and took a step back quietly.
Regardless of what others thought, Hermione continued:
"As for the most evil and darkest of the Unforgivable Curses..."
Hermione slowly looked towards Harry.
Snape's eyes gradually widened.
What is she going to do?
not good!
He stood up abruptly.
Unfortunately, before he could open his mouth to stop her, Hermione had already taken action!
"Avada eats the big melon!"
A green light flashed.
The smell of death is in the air.
The body of the eight-eyed giant spider, which had been moving just now, suddenly stopped and fell to the ground.
In just a moment, all breath was lost.
