Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry.

But it's better to go down than to drop the black hat directly.

Dudley sighed: "If they really strictly abide by the rules of the Ministry of Magic, don't attack Hogwarts students, and don't provoke me."

"Professor Dumbledore, I would like to make a small comment. I don't really agree with your repeated tolerance to the Ministry of Magic. You are the headmaster of Hogwarts, and your duty should be to be responsible for the safety of all students."

"Don't forget, in addition to being the headmaster of Hogwarts, you are also the head wizard of the Wizengamot."

The Wizengamot is a magical organization established earlier than the Ministry of Magic, an organization similar to a combination of a court and a parliament, and the chief wizard of the Wizengamot is the highest official of the organization.

In theory, the power is not inferior to the Ministry of Magic.

But. Dumbledore, the chief, is in a state of complete delegation.

The headmaster of Hogwarts and the chief wizard of the Wizengamot are comparable to the top of the Ministry of Magic no matter what level they are, and they are not inferior to Fudge in politics.

Knowing something about Dumbledore's deeds, he understood that Dumbledore no longer wanted to participate in any power struggles.

But it's not something you can't get away with if you don't want to.

Brother Xun, a great sage, said it well: 'As long as a person is alive, he is in the arena. Where there are people, there will be a arena. '

As long as Dumbledore lives, he will still be in the power struggle, even if he makes it clear that he is tired of the power center.

Escape is useless.

Because other people don't think so.

Power blinds people and loses them.

Putting down these words, Dudley left the principal's office, and gave Fox another bag of rations before leaving.

He could understand Dumbledore, but he didn't agree.

After Dudley left, the portraits of the principals of all ages came alive, expressing their views one after another.

"Dumbledore, I think he's right." A calm female voice sounded, which surprised the principals around.

She seldom expresses her opinion, and usually just listens.

But she was unanimously respected by all the principals.

Her name is Phyllida Spur, the oldest principal in the portraits of past principals, and the first principal with a portrait.

"In my time, there was no Ministry of Magic at all, only the Council of Wizards."

"The Wizarding Council is responsible for managing the wizarding world, while Hogwarts is responsible for teaching outstanding wizards. There is a clear division of labor without interfering with each other."

"At Hogwarts, only the headmaster has the final say, and even the speaker has to stand aside."

"There is nothing wrong with Dumbledore's emphasis on power, but what we should do is to face it squarely, rather than blindly stay away from it."

"Phyllida, I understand, I know." Dumbledore said softly, his voice getting smaller and smaller: "Let me think about it."

The fact that Sirius broke into Gryffindor caused quite a stir.

As long as they have free time, the little wizards are discussing this matter, and the rumors are getting more and more suspenseful.

Some say that Sirius was able to incarnate into a flowering bush, escaped the pursuit of dementors, and sneaked into Hogwarts.

Some say that Sirius passed through the wall like a ghost, so the dementors couldn't find him at all.

The most outrageous thing is that Sirius turned into dried potion after entering the castle, which was hidden in Snape's potion room.

What he said was a serious matter, even the magic spell that turned into an air-dried potion was fiddled with.

Dudley scoffed at this statement, and if Sirius dared to hide there, Snape would certainly not mind slicing and mashing it for him, throwing it into the cauldron and cooking it into a pile of mess.

However, rumors are just rumors, and these are only circulated among young wizards, and the facts may be completely different from their imaginations.

Is it possible that Sirius just entered Hogwarts through some secret passage in Hogwarts Castle?

No possibility, the little wizards think that this is not exciting at all, not magical at all, not magical at all.

So this conjecture has no market among young wizards.

Even if this is the closest guess to the truth.

Days passed by, and there was still no sign of Sirius. This guy seemed to have disappeared, and he didn't appear again after his appearance.

During this time, Defense Against the Dark Arts went from the least popular subject to the most popular.

The courses taught by Lupine are really interesting. They are basically practical courses, and they will never be repeated. They are all about dealing with all kinds of black magic creatures.

For example, the red hat, a bloodthirsty, cruel and very difficult little monster, has a danger level of 4X. As long as it smells blood in the wild, it will appear immediately, and it will continue to attack travelers until the opponent dies.

For example, Kabbah, a magical aquatic creature that likes to eat human blood, will drag lost people into the water and drown them to death, and then suck their blood. The danger level is also 4X. It looks like a monkey, and it is also nicknamed a water monkey.

Lupine tirelessly taught the young wizards the subtle skills of dealing with these dark magic creatures, which benefited everyone a lot.

Even Dudley praised Lupine's teaching methods.

A lot of knowledge cannot be learned from books.

Chapter 210 208 What is Quidditch worth seeing?No dogs go!

Protection of Fantastic Beasts is the second most popular course after Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Because this course is also a practical course.

Since the first class Hagrid brought the Hippogriff, it has been highly anticipated, and the second class did not disappoint everyone. Hagrid brought the father of the Hippogriffs, a strong Gryphon (Griffon).

Although the character of the griffin is different from that of the Hippogriff, and no one except Hagrid is allowed to approach it, so the little wizards failed to ride it, but just observing it at a close distance made everyone very excited.

The Griffon is such a powerful and handsome creature.

The content of the third class is the old acquaintance of Dudley and Harry—the three-headed Lu Wei.

The huge size gives people a great sense of oppression, even just standing in front of it feels great pressure.

Until Lu Wei saw Dudley.

It turns out that the three-headed dog has a very good memory.

The moment he saw Dudley, the mighty three-headed dog immediately put on a flattering expression, and the three heads began to rub against Dudley in turn.

Maybe Dudley and Hagrid have been equated in Lu Wei's heart.

It is listed as a list that must not be provoked.

"Dudley, have you met before?" Hagrid asked curiously.

Dudley gently pushed the three huge heads away, and replied to Hagrid, "It should be counted."

The magical creature like the three-headed dog is also extremely popular. With Hagrid guarding him, many little wizards managed to touch Lu Wei, which made everyone even more excited.

Every time I can see a new magical creature, and occasionally I can get started, so the little wizards naturally like it.

Naturally, the popularity gradually increased.

By the way, the meat-eating slug eggs from the previous hybridization have not yet hatched.

The agreed three weeks had come, and in this Potions class, Dudley also successfully handed in a satisfactory answer to Snape.

He successfully improved the formula of the shrink potion.

A new type of shrinking potion has been produced.

The medicinal properties are more stable. The important thing is that the taste is not so unacceptable, and even has a unique fragrance of water chestnuts.

"Perfect answer, then according to the agreement, Mr. Dursley can conduct his own research in Potions class from today on."

Snape held up the new potion completed by Dudley and said to the little wizards with a little pride.

"If any one of you can do it, then I can also give him this power."

"Of course, if you fail, you will have to clean the toilets in the whole school."

------

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Dudley and Hermione got up from their seats and began to pack up the textbooks on the desk.

This class is Ancient Runes.

The professor is a sorceress named Batheda Babling with a serious expression.

Sparse figures came out of the classroom.

There are not many people who choose to apply for this subject, and it can even be described as pitifully small. There are fewer people in the divination class than Trilawney, a big fool. At least in the divination class, you only need to say that you saw death, and then simply describe it to get extra points.

Most of the people who choose this subject come from Ravenclaw and Slytherin, and people from the remaining two houses will definitely not choose it, except for Hermione, who is the only one in Hogwarts who chooses this course with one Grando point.

It is worth mentioning that Hermione finally followed Dudley's advice and gave up these three courses after taking Divination, Arithmetic and Divination, and Muggle Studies.

Choose Care of Fantastic Beasts and Ancient Runes with Dudley.

Human energy is limited, as Dudley said, it is better to specialize in a few things than to be broad but not good.

Ancient rune sounds high-level, but it is actually a very boring subject.

It's not like Dudley's impressions of those fan works described, learning the arrangement and combination of runes, runes, etc., although they will also be involved, but those are all things that will be covered in the later stages of this subject, and you don't even think about it before you graduate from Hogwarts.

The content learned in the early stage is quite boring, um, even more boring than the history of magic

The most basic part of this course is to learn a language first, a language system of ancient magic.

Then translating the ancient magical literature records into modern languages ​​is what every class of this course will do.

Use simpler vocabulary to describe what the ancient runes have to do - language learning + translation + archaeology

Dudley and Hermione listened carefully.

Ancient magic language is the basis for using ancient magic. If you want to use runes, if you don't understand ancient magic language, you can't even break your ass.

It's like you get the Nine-Yin Manual, but you don't know the meaning of the words in it, let alone refining the Nine-Yin God's Claw into the Nine-Yin White Bone Claw, you won't even be able to train a crazy chicken claw.

"Today's class is finally over."

Dudley twisted his neck a little, making a 'crack-crack' sound.

This made the little wizard sitting behind him and Hermione feel terrified, for fear that he would accidentally twist his neck off.

"Dudley, do you have any plans for tonight? Do you want to watch Quidditch?" Hermione suggested while putting the textbook into the small bag that had been cast with the No Trace Stretching Charm, "I heard that today is the match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. Harry was invited by Gryffindor's captain, Wood, to be a special guest."

When Dudley heard that it was Quidditch, his interest immediately dropped, and he shook his head resolutely: "What's so interesting about Quidditch, the dogs don't even go."

If you have time to watch Quidditch, it is better to play a game of wizard cards, or do a set of pull training.

More and more wizards like this game. According to incomplete statistics, the number is no less than that of wizards who like Quidditch.

The money that Jin Jialong earned was a splash.

"yes."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Hermione's eyes, which Dudley caught keenly.

For the past three years, Hermione spent most of her time in the library except for daily exercise, occasionally sneaking off to the Forbidden Forest with Dudley to play wizard cards.

She hadn't even tried Quidditch, the most popular sport among wizards.

Well, Dudley went there once, and used a small notebook to write down two things to be rectified.

"Hermione, do you want to watch Quidditch?"

"Well, it's not, the main thing is that the two of us haven't watched a Quidditch match together."

Hermione wasn't particularly interested in Quidditch, she wanted to watch it with Dudley.

The point is to watch together, not Quidditch.

"Then let's go together."

Dudley clapped his hands and stood up.

"Didn't you say that dogs don't go to Quidditch?"

"Yeah, I'm not here to watch Quidditch."

"Then what are you going to see?"

Halfway through Hermione's words, she immediately came to her senses, her little face turned red instantly, making people want to take a bite.

He was with Hermione, if he wasn't going to watch Quidditch, what was it?
