Hogwarts: The Unscientific Wizard (TL)

Chapter 554: Chapter 554: Isn’t it easy to tell lies like this?



In the Great Hall, Professor McGonagall explained the original intention behind the formation of the Duelling Club and the specific details.

The young wizards were very excited.

They couldn't wait for this class to begin.

It's like playing an online game. If you don't include a pvp element, how is it different from playing a single-player game?

When learning magic, whether you like fighting or not, you always look forward to a chance to duel someone.

Just like Andy right now.

Andy was also very excited.

Since the last time he defeated Snape, Andy has repeatedly invited Snape to practice duelling. Snape's response to this is also very simple and can be summed up in two words: Get lost!

Andy was actually not satisfied with the result of the last duel.

That time, Andy used the Patronus Charm to win the duel.

Although the Patronus Charm is also Andy's spell, he always feels that using it to win a duel feels like bullying the opponent.

After all, the fat cat is a little more powerful than Andy in some instances.

Andy actually wants to defeat Snape without using the Patronus Charm.

And now, here's his chance!

This time, it's the school's Duelling Club.

Andy just needs to challenge Snape in a fair and square duel. As a professor, Snape cannot refuse Andy.

Not just Snape.

Professor Flitwick, Professor Lupin, and even Professor McGonagall—Andy wants to test his skills against them.

After dealing with these people, the next one will be Dumbledore.

Soloing Hogwarts!

If he can achieve this, Andy feels that his reincarnation in this world can be considered a success.

As for things like soloing the Death Eaters, Voldemort, and the Ministry of Magic...well, it's something to think about.

There's no way around it; Andy is just so full of himself right now!

Snape's face turned dark upon sensing Andy's fighting spirit.

He had originally hoped to taste the sweet revenge.

But now...

Did he really have to lose to Andy in public?

That would be a real disgrace!

However, as soon as this thought had just popped into his head, Snape's face instantly turned even gloomier.

'I'll lose to Andy?'

Snape felt ashamed of his own thoughts.

'I have to practice more when I get back!' Snape thought to himself.

Just then, Snape suddenly noticed that Andy's gaze lingered for a moment on Professor Lupin, Professor Flitwick, and Professor McGonagall.

Yes! Add them all.

Especially that werewolf, screw him first!

***

Soon, Professor McGonagall finished explaining the rules and other important details of the Duelling Club.

The professors then left together.

Professor Lupin walked over to Snape and said with a smile, "Severus, I think we can discuss the plan for the first class."

"The young wizards have a poor grasp of the basics, so I think we should start with the most fundamental Disarming Charm and Shield Charm, teaching them how to protect themselves."

Snape glanced sideways at Professor Lupin, his gaze carrying a strange tinge.

He hoped Lupin would drop this matter.

It was wrong of me to bait you.

However, this matter concerns a man's pride, and it is humiliating for Snape to even think about it, let alone refuse verbally.

But...

Some young wizards are really unscientific.

Or unmagical!

"Perhaps you will find some surprises in the first class."

Snape said, withdrawing his gaze and walking slowly. "There are always some geniuses in this world, and you can't measure them by the standards of the ordinary people. That would be unfair to them."

"Are you talking about Mr. Collins?"

Professor Lupin was not surprised. He glanced in Andy's direction before saying, "I heard from Sirius that he lost a duel to Mr. Collins."

"And Harry also told me that you duelled him."

Snape: "..."

I want to strangle Harry!

At this moment, Snape sincerely felt that bigmouth Andy had kept his word.

"Oh~"

Professor Lupin seemed to suddenly come to his senses and smile, stating, "I told Harry to keep it a secret."

Snape: "..."

He wasn't happy about it.

***

Inside the Great Hall, the young wizards were still excitedly talking about the Duelling Club.

The gloom brought on by the Azkaban incident had also been swept away.

Those things were far away from them.

They lived at Hogwarts, where things were peaceful. No matter how stormy it was outside, they would never feel it strongly.

Andy tugged at Hermione's sleeve and whispered, "Let's go!"

"Hm!" Hermione nodded lightly.

After leaving the Great Hall, Andy snapped his fingers, and the two of them instantly disappeared.

"Andy, I can't see you anymore," Hermione said.

"Hold my hand," said Andy, taking Hermione's hand.

They ran to the Forbidden Forest, where Andy removed the Disillusionment Charm. Looking around, he said, "From here on, we can use the Apparition Spell."

Hermione's eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Here? But... if the Dark Lord wants to invade Hogwarts, won't he be able to enter the castle directly from the Forbidden Forest?"

"It's too dangerous!"

Andy raised an eyebrow, "Hogwarts has Dumbledore."

Hermione's expression was a little hard to describe: "That's not very convincing."

Okay! Hogwarts has been a bit of a mess in recent years.

"And I'm here too!" Andy said.

Hermione gave Andy a look but didn't say anything more, and it seemed that she more or less accepted the situation.

"Let's go!" Andy said, offering his hand.

Hermione looked at Andy and then placed her hand in his.

Pop!

They vanished, and the next second, they appeared near Hermione's house—a place Andy had been to before.

"Here we are!" Andy said.

"How convenient..."

Hermione said with envy, "But I'm not very skilled at it yet, and I get a bit nervous every time I use it."

Hermione has been learning to use Apparition for a while now, and she can handle short distances, but long-distance Apparition is beyond her.

"Just a few more practice sessions."

Andy said, turning to look at Hermione's house.

Hermione looked over, too.

She could see the two people inside the house sitting on the sofa watching TV through the window. She couldn't hear any sound, but she could imagine that the atmosphere inside the house must be very warm.

"I'm a little homesick," Hermione said with a touch of sadness in her voice.

"Do you want to go in and have a look?" Andy asked.

Hermione was a little tempted.

But after hesitating for a while, Hermione still slightly shook her head and whispered, "Forget it! After going in, I don't know what to say."

"Do you want to tell them that the wizarding world is in turmoil, that the Dark Lord has been resurrected, that Dementors are on the rampage, and that a few Muggles have been attacked?"

Andy was lost for words.

Hermione seemed so pure and innocent.

"That you practised the Apparition spell and stopped by home for a visit..."

It was easy to make up such a lie, wasn't it?
