Homecoming from Hogwarts

A light rain in the evening took away the anxiety in the air.

As night fell, perhaps because the torches hanging on the walls were burning too vigorously, the atmosphere in the quiet physical education classroom always revealed a different kind of fiery heat. Even the two rows of damaged and listless statues against the wall tried hard to straighten their chests.

Dozens of young wizards from four academies, who are now considered elite, are in high spirits and are looking forward to the classroom door.

When the tightly closed classroom door was pushed open, the thunderous shouts and enthusiastic applause that suddenly erupted in the classroom, where you could hear a pin drop, formed a wind wolf that caused the banging flames to undergo a noticeable deformation!

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen--"

Amosta walked to the middle of the little wizards, carefully looked at each of their already slightly determined faces, and finally, revealed a gentle smile.

"I am very happy that I still have the opportunity to continue teaching you physical education, because Professor McGonagall told me today that she planned to remove irresponsible black sheep like me from the teaching team half a month ago to prevent me from corrupting other professors."

A burst of cheerful laughter rang out again. Amid the noise, Ernie from the Hufflepuff team raised his hand and shouted,

"My father wrote to tell me that the Magical Congress of the United States of America was planning to invite you to be the director of their security department. I told him that this was impossible and that you would not abandon us!"

"Oh, thank you for your confidence, Mr. MacMillan—"

Amosta smiled,
"The truth is that I couldn't reach an agreement with Samuel Kohaug, chairman of the Magical Congress of the United States of America, on the issue of salary, so I came back here."

Harry grinned, his heart, which had been in turmoil for some time, quickly calmed down by Professor Brain's humorous little joke.

"My dad told me that you helped MACUSA defeat a group of vampires!"

Cedric's handsome cheeks also flushed with excitement.
"Can you tell us in detail, Professor, who is more powerful between them and the werewolves?"

"There's really nothing much to say, Mr. Diggory—" Amosta spread his hands and shrugged, continuing to smile.

"Maybe I'm better at destroying evil forces. Anyway, I don't feel any difference between the two--"

“He’s so cool!”

Fred blew a loud whistle and then clapped vigorously with everyone else.

However, the handsome face under the flickering firelight, the deep eyes and the humble demeanor of understating it despite having accomplished another remarkable thing did indeed charm a group of young wizards.

Many girls looked at Amosta with stars in their eyes. Harry, who accidentally glanced at Hermione, was stunned. He found Hermione's eager eyes familiar. After a little thought, he suddenly realized that it seemed to be the eyes of Hermione when she first met Gilderoy Lockhart, the big liar.
"Well, thank you very much for still welcoming me as the professor of this course. So, Miss Granger?"

Amosta called out Hermione's name.

Hermione, who was listening attentively to Professor Brain's speech, did not expect that she would be suddenly called. She responded a little hurriedly, squeezed aside Draco Malfoy who was standing in front of her, and came to the front.

"I trust that the class has been in reasonable good order in my absence, Miss Granger?"

"Well--"

Hermione nodded, took a breath, and answered quickly.

"Everything is normal, Professor Brian. No one is absent. Luna is responsible for supervising the daily running exercises to ensure that no one is lazy, and Neville is responsible for maintaining order in physical education classes. I am responsible for answering some questions when we practice spells on armor. But without you, we can't conduct encirclement and counter-encirclement training."

"That's good enough, Miss Granger—"

Amosta nodded with satisfaction, asked Hermione to return to the student team, and then examined the little wizards who were looking at him eagerly.

"Before today's training begins, I want to tell you a little bit about my plans--"

Amosita paced back and forth in front of the students and said,

"First, as I told you before, PE will officially end by the end of the semester, and there will be an exam before it ends." "What will that be, Professor Blaine?"

When it comes to exams, Hermione always pays extra attention, especially to physical education, because unlike other 'cultural' subjects, she is confident that she can handle it.

“The specific content of the exam.”

Amosta looked at Hermione meaningfully, smiled and said,
"I'll tell you in advance, but not today. What I can tell you now is that this exam is going to be very exciting."

After waiting for the little wizards to whisper to each other for a while, Amosta continued,
"Starting next year, physical education will be officially included in the elective courses for those entering the third grade. At that time, I will screen the young wizards who are newly promoted to the third grade and intend to participate in physical education training to confirm who has the ability to conquer this course. What's wrong, Miss Greengrass?"

Amosta paused and looked at Astoria, who raised her hand.

"I will be a junior next year, Professor Blaine--"

Astoria blinked and asked in a clear voice,
"Does this mean I get a chance to go through the training all over again?"

"Oh, that's true,"

Amosta said gently,

"But I don't recommend you to continue to sign up for the new class. The courses won't be as intense as what you've experienced. I plan to spread the training over three years, allowing the new class of students to adapt step by step.

Since you are able to keep up with the current course, Ms. Greengrass, then just keep up with your daily training. There is no particular need to start over again. Of course, I respect your decision -"

In fact, if given the chance, most people would be happy to follow the new courses to consolidate the skills they have mastered, so many people looked at Astoria with envy, and the latter blinked her eyes and thought for a few seconds, then nodded and returned to Draco's side.

"Continuing with what I was saying just now—"

Amosta continued,

"Because the first official OWLS level physical education exam will officially begin in three years, senior students will not be able to catch up, so everyone in the classroom, if you can pass this year's physical education final exam, then when you enter the sixth grade, you will automatically be eligible for the NEWTS advanced class I will open next semester.

Of course, since the formal course has ended, you now have the right to give up, and I will not force you to enter the advanced class."

Giving up on entering the physical education improvement class, what kind of idiot would make such a decision?
The little wizards looked at Professor Brian with burning eyes to express their determination.

Feeling the attitude of the little wizards, Amosita smiled and felt very relieved.

Magic does not necessarily mean confrontation. In today's wizarding world, magic serves more to facilitate the lives of wizards. However, Amosita always believes that elite armed forces are necessary to maintain peace and stability in the wizarding world and should not be abandoned in any era.

The first proper physical education class in two months ended with the little wizards grumbling with reluctance. Amosta waved his wand to pile the desks neatly against the wall, gave a gentle smile to the little wizards who were waiting for him, and finally, his eyes fell on Draco.
"Draco, come with me."

The existence of physical education classes and the improvement he felt personally made this young master from a prominent family less lazy and confused by having too much, and some shining points in his character came to light.

Although he was curious, Draco did not ask what was going on while following Professor Brian.

"go in--"

Arriving at the Student Security Office on the third floor, Amosita raised his chin and smiled at the bewildered Draco.

"Professor Snape is in there, oh, your father is waiting for you too."
