Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 310: Maca Iron Nails

() "Please don't say that, Principal Dumbledore. I am personally honored to be able to join a magic school with a long history and celebrities like Hogwarts..."

When Maca said these words, he didn't even glance at Umbridge at all.

"Not long ago, I also went to school here. If I want to talk about my feelings for this school, I believe I will not be inferior to all the teachers and students present..." He said, turning around to look at To the students in the auditorium, "Here, there is the courage and strength of the Gryffindors, the wisdom and keenness of the Ravenclaws, and the shrewdness and confidence of the Slytherins..."

"Of course, there are also the Hufflepuffs I personally admire the most, the kind of hard work and loyalty!"

No one interrupted Maca's speech, not even Umbridge, who hated him.

Umbridge was certainly not intimidated by Maca’s many achievements. There was only one reason why she stopped talking, and that was Maca’s identity here——

He is the "special professor" at Durmstrang School of Magic.

As Dumbledore said, Maca was specially sent by Karkaroff. His reason for coming to Hogwarts was to show Hogwarts and Durmstrang to the magical world. Close friendship.

This is indeed the reason why Maca came as a "professor", but it is not the whole reason, just one.

In the long history of the magic world, sending people to each other in magic schools is an act of communication that is rare but has always existed.

But the biggest reason is not to "maintain friendship," but a stability maintenance behavior formulated by the International Wizards Federation.

In other words, Maca is actually a dispatcher handled by the Education Department under the International Wizarding Federation. It can be said that he was completely "airborne", while the British Ministry of Magic, which was supposed to be caught in the middle, was directly "jumped." pass.

The time when the nail was hammered in was extremely precise and hard enough, Umbridge could not interfere with him.

On the contrary, Maca has the responsibility of supervising Hogwarts' education. If he responds to the "specific situation" of the Education Office of the Federation, it will be the British Ministry of Magic that is unlucky.

Of course, this is actually not good for Maca. After all, if there is some negative situation, Hogwarts will also be under pressure.

"The system of special stability maintenance personnel has not been activated for a long time. Even if Dumbledore is the current president of the International Wizarding Federation, it is impossible to have the ability to manipulate the decisions of the meeting... How exactly is this done?"

Umbridge's face reappeared with a hypocritical smile, but the question in his heart could not figure out an accurate answer.Her greasy expression is really disgusting.

"... Regarding the list of books you received, the "Mystery of Ancient Magic Texts" can be purchased at the administrator counter of the library, and students who have not taken the Ancient Magic Texts course can also buy it!"

While Umbridge was still thinking about it, Maca's words came to an end.

"Okay, I think everyone is almost finished eating, and I have to take the time to fill up my stomach while the table is still being cleaned up..." He shrugged, causing the little wizards to snicker." Let Principal Dumbledore give a final explanation to everyone!"

Before he could say anything, Maca nodded slightly to everyone, and then quickly walked to the empty seat on the staff seat.

From beginning to end, he only said a word to Umbridge, but even so, his arrival brought Umbridge a lot of dread.

"Well, everyone is already getting sleepy, so I will finish as soon as possible!" There was another polite laughter from the audience.

"The Quidditch selection will be..."

"McLean, teaching a group of ignorant little ghosts is not as easy and pleasant as you think..."

When Maca was immersed in battle with food, Snape who was sitting next to him said with a grin.

"I think so, Professor Snape..." Maca swallowed the food in his mouth, took another sip of grape juice, and then continued, "That's why I chose to take up the post of the magic text class. They only If you need to recite, recite and recite, you will almost graduate."

As he said, he thought about it, and finally added: "Well, yes, it's like the history of magic."

"Then why do you need to prepare the textbooks yourself?" Snape looked hesitant. "Can't you just use the existing textbooks?"

After Maca heard it, he couldn't help but smile: "The textbooks I prepared are not for students to learn... Well, at least they don't have to be taught to students."

He paused, then lowered his voice mysteriously and said: "I showed it to the Education Department of the International Wizarding Federation-if there is no genuine product, the identity of the special agent will not be so easy to approve."

Here Maca was eating and talking with Snape, and Harry and the others were also talking about it at the Gryffindor table.However, the content they talked about was much shallower.

"Hermione, what are you thinking?" Harry couldn't help asking when seeing Hermione seemingly thinking.

"Huh?" Hermione regained her consciousness and said thoughtfully, "It can be seen from Umbridge's rude interruption of Dumbledore's speech just now that she is serving Defence Against the Dark Arts this time. Professor, there must be some bad intentions..."

"I can see this too..." Ron scratched his head. "But the point is, what does she want to do?"

"No, it's not'she', but the part of the'power' she represents," Hermione said solemnly, "Remember? Maca said, Fu...you know, that man is in the Ministry of Magic The chess pieces were laid..."

"...I'm wondering whether this Umbridge is just one of...pawns."

Probably because there was no time to worry about the awkwardness before, Harry and Ron subconsciously looked at each other, a sense of crisis filled the air.

"We don't need to be too nervous," Hermione saw this, and immediately comforted, "It is clear that Maca and Dumbledore are already prepared for this-this time Maca suddenly became our professor. Response plan."

"So..." Harry hesitated, "Should we do something?"

At this moment, there was a mess of clashing around, obviously, this was because Dumbledore announced his dissolution.

Everyone stood up and planned to leave.

Hermione jumped up suddenly, showing a rare flustered expression, a pair of eyes constantly wandering around.

"Ron, we should give first-year students the way!"

"Ah! Oh, you're right!" Ron also jumped up immediately, "Hey-hello! Everyone... that... the little ones!"

"Ron!"

"Ah, I was right... They are so small!"

"Then you can't—" Hermione sorted her mind, and put on a steady expression, "First-year freshman, please come here! Follow me—"

...

The office of the professor of the ancient magic lesson is located on the fifth floor of the main castle, and the classroom of the ancient magic lesson is also on the same floor, and the two rooms are only half a corridor apart.

If you come out of the office, walk a distance after passing through the classroom, you can see Hogwarts Library just around the corner.

At this moment, when the students were all going to the common room of the colleges, Maca went to his office empty-handed just like when he arrived in the auditorium.

Although it is not clear how Professor Babling arranged her office before, at least Maca didn't have the intention to dress up the room well.

Except for the necessary living utensils, all of his office is occupied by bookshelves and various books, documents and notebooks.

Whoever walks into this office will smell a reassuring scent of ink.

Before you know it, Maca’s habits seem to be becoming more and more similar to Rowena Ravenclaw.Just like when Maca first entered Rowena's secret room, his office feels like a private study full of books.

He had just sat down behind the desk, and before he had time to savor the feeling of being a professor, he suddenly felt a slight wave of magic power coming from outside the door.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

There was a polite knock on the office door.

"Please come in."

As the door was gently opened, a touch of pale gold instantly reflected in Maca's pupils.

"Luna!"

A gentle smile appeared on Maca's face.

"Hello! Professor McLean..." Luna's misty silver eyes blinked slightly, and the soft voice passed through the sea of ​​books in the office, as if it also brought a hint of simple charm.

"Yes, I'm your professor now!" Maca smiled lightly, "Although I haven't seen the list of students who have chosen the magic text class, I remember, you should be one of them, right?"

"I like ancient Runes very much. Each letter in them has a mysterious meaning-Dad also likes it!" Luna said in a daze.

"Well, Mr. Lovegood has published some Rune articles in "The Singing Tune", I have indeed read--" Maca nodded and beckoned to Luna, "Don't stand and say , Come and sit for a while!"

Luna walked with her hands behind her back and walked slowly to the desk. On the other side against the wall, there was a chair squeezed among the piles of books.

She sat down cautiously, then put her hand from behind to front of her, and showed Maca what she was holding.

"My father and I will give you a gift to celebrate your finding a job." Luna said with a faint smile. "Daddy also said, thank you for giving him an interesting news."
