The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v4 Chapter 57: Moody's Imperius Curse

Remember [New] in a second! Chapter 57: Mad-Eye Moody

Tom is immersed in the joy of getting out of danger at this time, but he has no idea that he has been involved in a bigger and more dangerous vortex.

He spread out "Picking Through the Fog to See the Future" and began to carefully analyze his future direction according to the instructions above.

"Mars and Jupiter are unfortunately conjunct, so I'm likely to be unwell...But it seems that something good will happen this day..." Tom wrote like a fly, and quickly completed his interpretation of his fortune for the next month. He wrote on the last line: On Monday night, I will have a conflict with a person, because progress appears in the twelfth sign of the zodiac.

"Tom, can you check my horoscope for me?" Parvati pushed the horoscope chart under Tom's nose. Seeing Parvati's action, Hermione raised her eyebrows.

"Okay." Tom has turned into a ruthless divination machine at this time. Without saying a word, he took the astrology chart and began to speculate on Parvati's fortune.

"Well... the astrology shows that you should have no major problems next month. There may be some small bumps. For example, you are at risk of being burned on Monday-this may have something to do with your protection of magical beasts class."

Tom's little joke made Parvati and the others laugh.

"Can that help us take a look at the longer-term fortune...such as love." After finishing their homework, several little witches were still unwilling to leave. They chattered around Tom, hoping that he could help them take a look. own fortune.

"Well, according to the horoscope, Lavender, you need to take the initiative, and Parvati and Padma, you two just need to wait quietly—there will be a slight chance around Christmas, you have to grasp it ..."

Tom was very absorbed in his speech, and halfway through the speech he looked up and found that Crookshanks was squatting on the empty chair next to him, staring at him with inscrutable eyes. It looked exactly like Hermione, almost exactly like Hermione.

Tom quickly pushed the astrology chart away, saying that it's getting late, let's stop talking for today, you guys hurry back, don't run into Filch on the way back.

The three of Lavender reluctantly ended the topic.

After the three of them left, Hermione, who had been silent for a long time, snorted coldly: "Attack proactively? Wait quietly? Then what do I need to do?"

When the energy was diverted from divination, Tom's emotional intelligence returned to normal. Seeing Hermione's reaction, he immediately realized: Isn't she jealous?

"You, you don't need to do anything." After saying this, Tom stood up quickly and kissed Hermione like a superficial kiss.

Before she could react, Tom seized the time and slipped away. Hermione touched the spot where Tom kissed just now, angrily and funny, and said to Crookshanks: "Does he think he can escape sanctions by doing this? It's a good idea!"

Crookshanks wagged his tail lazily.

"Meow~"

The next few days were uneventful, nothing happened until the first Defense Against the Dark Arts came.

Before the little wizards of Ravenclaw started Moody's lessons, they heard a few words from their friends who had attended the lessons. This also made everyone look forward to Moody's class, so many people rushed to the classroom a long time in advance, just to get a good seat.

Tom and Hermione were early, so they managed to get a seat directly in front of the podium.

After the class bell rang, Moody's characteristic footsteps came from the corridor outside the classroom—he had a prosthetic leg, so there was a muffled thump when he walked.

Moody's first words after entering the classroom were: "Put away the textbooks, I don't need them for my class."

The students immediately became excited: Defense Against the Dark Arts, which does not require textbooks, must be very exciting!

Moody quickly wrote his name on the blackboard, and then began to roll the roll. Every student who is called will be scrutinized by Moody's stare.

After the last name was checked, Moody closed the roster and said in a rough voice: "I have asked, Professor Lupine has introduced you how to deal with black magic animals in a very systematic way. Very good. I also heard that an imposter replaced the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who was supposed to be here two years ago and taught you for a year?"

The young wizards in the audience nodded one after another.

"If I meet that guy, I will throw him into Azkaban." Moody muttered, "Although he is a scum, I still agree with his teaching philosophy."

Hearing this, the little wizards in the audience were shocked. They thought that there was no balance between good and evil, and that Moody, as a retired Auror, should be very opposed to the fake Lockhart. No one expected that he would agree with that person's teaching philosophy.

"You are indeed deficient in dealing with spells, many adult wizards can't even cast an iron armor spell!" Moody paused on the floor with his crutches, "So in this year, I will teach you how to deal with black magic ...But what I'm going to say is much more detailed than that impostor, you have to work hard to keep up... Time is running out."

Moody grinned.

"In short, he should have told you and demonstrated the three unforgivable curses, right?" After receiving an affirmative answer, Moody nodded in satisfaction.

"This has saved me a lot of trouble... Then, as the first lesson at the beginning of school, I decided to use the Imperius Curse on you in turn."

The students were sensational. They didn't expect that Moody would openly use the Unforgivable Curse on the students! Tom was also a little confused ~lightnovelpub.net~ He didn't know if an Auror like Moody would really cast the Imperius Curse on ordinary students.

Is this really something a retired Auror can do? Tom has a hint of doubt about Moody's identity.

"But it's illegal," Hermione almost stood up in surprise, "Before... said, using the Imperius Curse on wizards—"

"Both Dumbledore and I think it's not a bad thing for you to experience the Imperius Curse." Moody looked at Hermione with both eyes, and said firmly: "You must have some insight, so that you will be cast with this spell in the future. Only then can we better deal with it, and even break free from the control of the Imperius Curse. I'm sorry, Miss Granger, but this is necessary!"

After speaking, Moody waved his magic wand, clearing a large space in the center of the classroom. After the field was set up, Moody began to let the students take turns to come forward and cast the Imperius Curse on them. Under the influence of the Imperius Curse, everyone made abnormal behaviors one by one: some people danced break dances, some started exercising in the classroom, Sue Lee even imitated a rabbit vividly .

"Hermione Granger." Finally, Moody called Hermione's name. She walked to the middle of the classroom with some anxiety.

Good night.
