At ten thirty on the weekend morning, Amosta stood in front of Professor Lockhart's office door.
To be honest, he didn’t have much ill feelings towards this less famous professor. Judging from the last brief contact, the professor’s attitude when communicating with him was quite friendly. Of course, It has to be said that his speaking style is indeed a bit exaggerated.
Actually, Amosta feels a little guilty about Lockhart, and there are two reasons in total.
The first reason is obvious. When someone is a good Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he takes away half of other people’s work without saying hello. To put it seriously, this kind of behavior is called Stealing for jobs is very immoral.
The second reason is a bit complicated.
On that night a few days ago, Amosta used a certain method to forcefully transfer the Dark Lord's curse on this position to the voodoo doll. The benefit of doing so was Amosta himself. He no longer has to bear the risks caused by the curse, and the risk of Lockhart, who should have suffered all the consequences of the curse, is also much less.
At first glance, this may seem like the best of both worlds, but it’s not.
For example, the Dark Lord's curse is like a rushing river. Amosta's way of resisting the curse is to forcibly build embankments on the river to block the rapid current. The embankment is strong, and he will be safe standing behind the embankment. But if one day the embankment collapses, or if he takes the initiative to remove the embankment, then the water stored at the high level will be far more violent than before.
Of course, if Professor Lockhart resigns before Amosta and runs away, then he will probably have to bear all the consequences himself.
"Please come in"
The voice behind the door was still so cheerful, nothing unusual could be heard.
"I hope he won't be too angry"
Before pushing the door open, Amosta muttered quietly.
The decoration style of Professor Lockhart's office is as exaggerated as himself. Several walls in the room are covered with portraits of himself. Even on a sunny morning, there are still many lights in the room. The light of the bright candles was reflected by the white teeth in the photo on the wall and hit Amosta, almost blinding him.
Another point worth mentioning is that among the Hogwarts faculty and staff, Professor Lockhart is probably the only one who has received letters comparable to Principal Dumbledore. The letters waiting to be answered on the table were about five feet high.
"Oh, Miss Granger, I didn't expect you to be here too"
Lockhart was not the only one in his office. Opposite him, there was a little witch. After seeing him come in, he hurriedly stood up from the chair, with a red face, hid a golden card in his pocket,
"Good morning, Mr. Blaine"
A Mosta stood at the door without moving, he raised his eyebrows and smiled
"So, PomfreyMadam has already taken care of your beautiful black suit."
Amosta saw the little witch lowering her head and blinking desperately, her body almost curled up into a ball nervously, so she immediately understood,
"Oh, well, congratulations on your recovery, Miss Granger."
Amosta looked at Lockhart with questioning eyes, "Sorry to interrupt your conversation, Professor Lockhart, if it's inconvenient for you now"
"Oh, there's no need to leave, I can't refuse one fan because of another, Amosta, Miss Granger is here. I'm grateful, we've finished talking."
Amosta saw Hermione looking at him with curiosity in her eyes, and knew that she must have misunderstood something, but he didn't bother to explain it. A harmless misunderstanding, she walked in with a wry smile
Although she was curious about why Mr. Blaine came to visit Professor Lockhart, Hermione knew that they would not allow her to stay here and blatantly eavesdrop. So she could only leave reluctantly. Before leaving, there was an incident. Because of her pretentiousness, Hermione accidentally knocked over the pile of hundreds of letters on Professor Lockhart's desk waiting for a reply. Letter.
"I'm sorry, Professor, I'll help you right now"
Looking at Hermione who was hurriedly looking for the wand, Amosta shook his head in amusement, why does he see it every time? This smart little witch always looked flustered.
"No need to bother, Miss Granger, let me handle it."
Watching the panting Hermione leave, Amosta walked forward with a smile. He glanced at the envelopes scattered on the floor and on the desk. Suddenly, a stack of old-looking envelopes was pressed under the letter. The words on the parchment made his eyes freeze, but he soon returned to normal. With a crisp snap of his fingers, hundreds of letters in various envelopes automatically floated neatly. Return it to its original position.
"In my opinion, you are probably the most popular teacher in this school right now, Professor Lockhart. ”
Professor Lockhart’s smile, which was a little stiff due to Amosta’s beautiful silent and wandless casting, immediately brightened up,
“Actually, it’s more than that. Wait until you completely Once you integrate into the professors' team, you will find that among the professors, Gilderoy Lockhart is also the one who attracts the most attention. After all," Lockhart playfully winked at Amosta. Eyes, take a deep breath,
"How many people can win the Wizarding Weekly Most Charming Smile Award five times in a row, and are also recipients of the third-level Order of Merlin and honorary members of the Anti-Dark Arts Alliance? Of course. , Amosta, you must know my past as well as Miss Granger, right?"
Lockhart did not notice that Amosta, who was looking more and more worried, completely Intoxicated in his own world,
"Oh, haha, Amosta, Amosta, I have to admit, you gave me a surprise once again, it's terribleIt’s not just that you have gone to great lengths to follow my footsteps and enter Hogwarts. Now, in order to be close to me, you even applied to Dumbledore to be my assistant. Oh, I have to say, Amosta, among my most fanatical followers Among them, you are considered very outstanding."
Amosta pursed her lips tightly and looked tense. She somewhat understood why this well-known star writer became a person disliked by thousands of people at Hogwarts.
However, this also gave Amosta an idea on how to communicate with him,
“Ahem, it’s true, Professor Lockhart, I do admire you. ""
"Aha"
Lockhart laughed exaggeratedly, with an expression on his face that said it was true.
"That's true, I am applying to be an Assistant Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts to be closer to you, and I hope to improve myself in your classes alongside the little wizards.
However, Professor McGonagall does seem to think that she means that it is too hard for you to deal with so many fan letters every day and teach hundreds of little wizards to fight evil black magic. I hope I can share your pressure and let me teach senior students alone. To be honest, this is not my original intention."
"Needless to say, Amosta, I completely understand your point. "It means"
The confidence on Lockhart's face seemed to shine. He interrupted Amosta's explanation.
"You want to teach with me, right? No problem." , Amostar, Gilderoy Lockhart will never refuse the request of any fanatic fan."
Uh
Achieving the purpose so simply made Ah Mosta was at a loss
At the end of this pleasant meeting, Amosta asked if he should make some preparations so as not to be unable to cooperate with Professor Lockhart's progress during class, but Lockhart told him that he didn't need to make any preparations at all, he just needed to follow the instructions during class.
"By the way, Professor Lockhart"
Before leaving the office. , Amosta stood at the door and turned his head with a very subtle expression.
"Have you done any research on memory magic?"
