Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 369 No.20 Education Order No.[-]
What can make a person who has just been 'death threatened' continue to carry out actions that may bring her death without fear of threats?
Quite simply, either the threat had been removed, or someone had promised her a benefit old enough to take the risk!

In view of the two senior Slytherin students who followed Umbridge like bodyguards, Mike guessed that someone very prestigious in Slytherin must have provided Umbridge with protection.

And that person is most likely Chris!
Mike's hands loosened and clenched, clenched and loosened, looking extremely displeased.

If things really went as I expected, and Umbridge and Chris became companions, then this would be a big blow to my plan at Hogwarts.

Mike, who was contemplating, suddenly felt someone pat him, turned his head and saw Franklin looking at him anxiously.

"Are you alright?" Franklin asked cautiously, "Umbridge and Trelawney are gone, shall we follow and see?"

"Of course!"

Mike dropped this sentence, and immediately walked out of the divination classroom.

In the corridor at the moment, Umbridge was walking triumphantly under the close protection of a senior Slytherin, and behind her was a large group of onlookers.

Umbridge's bodyguard is very responsible, but anyone who wants to get close to Umbridge within one meter will be blocked by him. For this reason, he even took out his wand as a warning.

At the head of the line was the expelled Trelawney and another Slytherin who escorted her.

At this time, although Trelawney's hair was disheveled and her eye circles were still red, she held her head high and her chest proud.

Surrounded by a crowd of classmates, she strutted towards the outside of the castle. Looking at her appearance, people who don't know the truth of the matter might think that she is some GM martyr who is going to the execution ground!

Of course, it would be more like it if her legs didn't tremble and her steps didn't falter.

Umbridge, who was walking behind Trelawney, took all of this into consideration, a smug smile on her face.

She really likes the taste of this kind of power. In the past week, she has been terrified every day, for fear that the masked man who used to be like a nightmare will reappear and stab a knife into her chest!
This situation lasted until Chris came to visit and began to gradually improve, because Chris promised to summon the elite prospective graduates of Slytherin to give him protection and use his connections in the Ministry of Magic to fight for greater power for himself .

According to Chris, those elite Slytherins who will be sent to protect themselves will be of the highest level, belonging to the kind of students who can directly join the Auror army after graduation with a little training.

And the price of all this is just to give some 'insignificant' privileges to the Slytherin house, and give some 'reasonable' extra points to the Slytherin students in the exams!

What a bargain!

At least it's more cost-effective than the deal with McTownley!

Umbridge agreed to Chris almost without hesitation, and on the second day, she began her revenge on Hogwarts - expelling Trelawney!
This was Umbridge's choice after careful consideration. There was no way, Trelawney was too weak and too unimportant.

It couldn't be better to use her as a tester for Hogwarts higher-ups!
Thinking of this, the smile on Umbridge's face became even brighter.

At the front of the line, Professor McGonagall, who was wearing a uniform and holding a textbook in his hand, was pressing his lips tightly and walking towards everyone quickly.

The first time she saw Professor McGonagall, Trelawney, who was still like a chaste martyr, burst into tears immediately.She quickly stepped forward and hugged Mag's thigh, choked up and said:

"She's kicking me out! She's kicking me out! I want to see Dumbledore, he promised me! Promised me never to fire me!"

Seeing this, the crowd around burst into laughter again, and almost everyone present was amused by Trelawney's huge attitude change.

McGonagall, who was hugged by her thigh, was also very helpless. She wanted to pull her leg out but found that Trelawt was so strong that she couldn't break free at all. In the end, she could only stand still and wait for Umbridge to walk up. come.

And Umbridge, who was walking behind, was also shocked when he found Mag, and immediately stopped where he was, unwilling to move forward.

The Slytherin bodyguard next to her had obviously been greeted. Seeing Professor McGonagall appearing, he blocked Umbridge directly, and took out his wand at Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall's face became even darker, and the students beside him also let out a burst of exclamation.

Pointing a wand at a powerful professor?

This is simply a fantasy!

However, the Slytherin student ignored it and continued to be vigilant, even if Professor McGonagall's eyes were probably too much for him now, he would never back down.

Perhaps it was the brave behavior of the bodyguard that gave him courage. Umbridge poked his head out from behind the Slytherin timidly, and shouted to McGonagall from a distance, pretending to be:

"Mc...McG! Is there something wrong with you here?"

"I think you'll have to give me an explanation, Umbridge!"

Professor McGonagall's voice was extremely cold, and anyone could tell that she was suppressing her anger at the moment.

Hearing that Umbridge retracted his head again,
"I don't think it's your turn to intervene in this matter!"

"I remember that I told you very clearly that the order to expel students and professors can only be issued by the headmaster, and no one can make decisions without authorization before Dumbledore returns to school!"

"Really?" Umbridge leaned out again suddenly, and she was still holding a piece of parchment with the stamp of the Ministry of Magic in her hand, and then she had to pick up the parchment and waved it at McGonagall. Waving, said, "I don't think so!"

"what is that?"

Franklin asked in a low voice. Mike was about to answer that he didn't know, but when he saw Umbridge in front of him, he started to say:
"This is a new decree! "No. 20 No. [-] Education Decree"!"

"Another one!" Professor McGonagall shouted fiercely.

"That's right!" Umbridge put a smile on his face again, "I'm going to read out the new decree...cough...

The Senior Inquisitor shall henceforth have supreme authority over all matters of punishment, sanction and disenfranchisement involving Hogwarts students and staff, and shall have power to amend such punishments, sanctions and disenfranchisements imposed by other staff.

Signed: Cornelius Fudge
minister of magic

Order of Merlin, First Class

... ([-] characters omitted)"

After finishing speaking, Umbridge carefully rolled up the parchment and put it into the handbag, still smiling.

Professor McGonagall's body was trembling slightly, obviously annoyed by Umbridge.

Trelawney, who was kneeling on the ground, forgot to even cry, and just looked at the triumphant Umbridge with a dull expression.

The surrounding students also behaved differently, the Slytherins were cheering, while the people from the other three houses were all sighing.

Oh no.

Not everyone in the other three colleges is sad either.

At least the two Weasley brothers are very happy, because now they have obtained the right to expel students, which means that they are about to be expelled, and the hard days are finally coming to an end.

"So, I think I now have the right to fire anyone who makes a mistake!"

Umbridge looked around with a smirk, as if he wanted to keep the faces of everyone present in his heart.

Trelawney, who was still in a sluggish state, passed out immediately after being stared at by Umbridge.

And the Weasley brothers in the crowd, after noticing the look in Umbridge's eyes, hurriedly pretended to be heartbroken, for fear that Umbridge would not fire them if he got angry.

Perhaps it was because he saw the frightened look of the Weasley brothers, Umbridge nodded in satisfaction, and said to the Slytherin next to Trelawney:

"Why are you still standing there? Get her out of here!"

Hearing this, the Slytherin immediately took out his wand, waved it lightly, and Trelawney on the ground floated up without seeing him chanting a spell—this is actually a master of silent spells!

"Wait! Didn't you see that she fainted? At least take her there first..."

Professor McGonagall hurriedly stopped her, but before she finished speaking, Trelawney, who was floating up, struggled desperately.

A sarcastic smile flashed across Umbridge's face, he nodded and took the lead towards the outside of Hogwarts Castle.

At this moment, Professor McGonagall's face was ashen. Although she clenched her fists tightly, she didn't see her move at all.

Mike on the side couldn't help shaking his head.

Professor McGonagall is still too rigid. In Mike's opinion, it is time to keep Trelawney at all costs!
This is not to say that Trelawney is so important, but that Umbridge's move is obviously testing the bottom line of Hogwarts' top management.

Maybe Professor McGonagall thinks it's okay to make a little concession, but she has forgotten that Umbridge is not just a professor, but Umbridge is an excellent politician!

And one of the obvious characteristics of really outstanding politicians is that they push their feet!
If you take a step back in anything, they will press harder and harder!
Until it kills you completely!Eat dry wipe!

It can be predicted that after this time Umbridge will completely get rid of the shadow of "death threat", and the high-level people in Hogwarts, including Snape and McGonagall, will have a very difficult life.

And in this bad state, I believe Dumbledore must also come back.

Watching Umbridge and the others walk away, Mike sighed and said to Benjamin and the others:
"Get ready, Dumbledore is coming back soon, our plan must be accelerated!"

"Yeah!" Benjamin nodded solemnly, "I see!"

On the other hand, Franklin was at a loss. He looked at Mike for a while, and Benjamin for a while.

Mike didn't bother to explain to him, shook his head and left the crowd.

……

That night, the da army gathered again.

This time Mike learned the lesson from last time, and specially assigned two sets of special lesson plans according to the level of magic and talent of mutual aid members and others.

Among them, Qiu Zhang and Harry were taught the Tongue Locking Charm from Snape's textbook. This spell is very simple and very practical, because once hit by this spell, your tongue will stick to your mouth. Together, resulting in the inability to chant mantras.

If used well, this enchantment can allow them to finish off the enemy with minimal cost in the heat of battle.

As for those enemies who know silent spells, Mike thinks that with the level of magic power of Harry and others, no matter what spells you teach them, they are giving food to such enemies.

As for the members of the Mutual Aid Society, Mike’s requirements are much higher. Mike not only requires them to master the Locking Tongue Curse, but also teaches them several other variants of the spell, such as: Bubble Curse Variations - Suffocation, Fluorescence Curse Variants - flash bombs, gut-ejaculation spells - heart-out...

Hermione and Harry were initially annoyed by Mike's behavior, as it also included several spells that were clearly Dark Arts.

However, under Mike's "knife innocence theory", they finally compromised.

"Okay, I admit that you talk a lot!"

Harry said helplessly, and then yawned wearily.

"There's something wrong with you, it's only 10:30 now." Mike was a little puzzled, "Usually you're very energetic at this time. So, what's wrong with you today?"

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that Ron and I played Quidditch for a while this afternoon."

"Quidditch? I remember the Quidditch school team was disbanded?"

"Our captain feels that the Quidditch school team will resume soon." Harry yawned again, "So he has been pulling us to do training camp these days."

Hearing this, Mike immediately frowned, he was extremely puzzled by Gryffindor's behavior of committing crimes against the wind.

"I advise you not to go to training again."

"Don't worry, Mike. Huha~, I won't affect the class. So you don't have to persuade me like Hermione."

"What I mean is, you must be careful of Umbridge." Mike shook his head. "Now she has more rights. If you still make trouble openly at this time, the punishment you will receive will definitely be severer."

"Oh, well, I'll discuss it with the captain." Harry said seriously, "You know, I don't care if you train or not."

"You can refuse!"

"No, I can't," said Harry, "he (Captain) would kill me. Besides..."

Harry looked at Ron again, "We don't need to be afraid of Umbridge! Say yes, Ron!"

Ron, who was seriously trying to use the Tongue Locking Curse on Neville, was distracted and hit a girl next to him with the curse.

Immediately, the Response Room was in chaos again, and Mike shook his head helplessly as he watched the crowd fighting together.

Sometimes people really kill themselves!

He had a premonition that Harry and the others would suffer retribution soon!
