Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 656

This has made even more students eager to participate. However, this has also brought negative consequences.

Umbridge seemed to vent all the insults the Ministry of Magic had suffered in the eyes of ordinary people on the students and teachers of Hogwarts.

The day after that Ravenclaw student uttered those words, a new ordinance was posted on the school bulletin board.

Education Order No. 26

Hogwarts faculty and students are forbidden from discussing anything unrelated to teaching or learning!

This law even angered those students who didn't like studying.

Lee Jordan yelled at Umbridge, "From now on, teachers are not allowed to criticize him for playing Wizard's Chess at the back of the classroom!"

As long as he and his classmates don't discuss Wizard's Chess, the professors can't critique him. Criticizing his play is clearly irrelevant to teaching.

Li Qiaodan's words got him into some trouble.

Because the next day, the back of his hand was covered in wounds. Umbridge increased the punishment.

She made Li Jordan look like this on the very first day.

Darren gave him some medicine to use at night, so that at least the pain wouldn't be too bad.

Perhaps, Li Jordan had the illusion that Darren encouraged him to do this, and began to become a warrior who would continue to oppose Umbridge after Harry.

In short, these events have triggered Umbridge's fragile nerves. She's now somewhat driven mad.

She had a somewhat neurotic urge to hold Hogwarts firmly in her grasp.

They even want to fire a professor soon as possible as an example to others.

This chicken is clearly either Trelawney or Hagrid. Hagrid also received a decision to remain on probation after his last inspection.

Umbridge looked down on all life forms other than wizards; she considered them all bastards and even believed that those creatures should die.

So it's quite normal to treat Hagrid this way. As for Trelawney...

She simply thought Trelawney was an old liar.

This can be seen from the fact that she has been attending Trelawney's classes every day recently and taking notes on crimes with a quill pen.

She kept getting Trelawney to predict things. It's common knowledge.

Trelawney's predictions weren't entirely inaccurate, but they were also... always a little off.

Her predictions can look further into the future, or rather, they can see things that others cannot.

This led to everyone suspecting her of being an old fraud.

Umbridge made her make two prophecies, and Trelawney could see that Umbridge was going to have a bad omen both times.

However, Umbridge has been living a particularly comfortable life lately, except for the Ministry of Magic losing a bunch of Death Eaters.

There wasn't the slightest sign of something ominous.

This made her even more convinced that Trelawney was a big liar. Of course.

Hagrid didn't have a good impression of Umbridge either, aside from his giant-hybrid heritage.

It also shows his disrespect for the laws of the Ministry of Magic.

Umbridge wants everyone to respect the laws of the Ministry of Magic.

Hagrid last openly said that dogs bite when Umbridge said Thestrals had been listed as dangerous animals.

This made Umbridge even more disgusted with him.

Hagrid was so frightened by Umbridge that he no longer dares to use Thestrals in class.

However, he was often interrupted by Umbridge in class, which caused him to forget his train of thought and make the lessons stumble.

Because of this situation, Hagrid didn't even dare let them into his hut, he told Harry.

“Umbridge already hates you and Darren. If she finds out you came here at night, you’ll definitely be fired!”

Harry tried to stubbornly insist that he wasn't afraid of being expelled.

But he also understood that if Darren were fired, he might be the first one to be heartbroken.

Darren is always so kind and innocent. If they get fired, Darren will be even more heartbroken than he is now.

As Harry pulled Darren out of Hagrid's hut, he suddenly realized that Umbridge had almost taken everything from him.

His fame, his Quidditch, his brother's unbridled confidence, his amusement at meeting Sirius Black, and the occasional joy of chatting with Hagrid.

He feels like all his happiness is about to disappear.

Therefore, he could only direct all his revenge at DA. DA members worked even harder than before.

Especially Nawei.

Neville is now even more taciturn, and he spends every moment diligently studying magic.

Even spells that Darren devised himself, he could train to perform. The only one more skilled than Neville was Harry.

However, he was sometimes no match for Neville.

For example, Neville mastered the Iron Mantra a minute earlier than him.

Although it was only one minute, the two of them were already ahead of all the DA members except Darren.

Harry was very happy with Neville's progress. After all, Neville's efforts were something he wanted to see.

Harry understands that every bit of progress made by the DA members is the result of his and Darren's hard work.

Their progress made him and Darren happy.

But outside of Occlumency, Harry couldn't feel happy at all.

Harry managed to hold off Snape somewhat in the first Occlumency lesson, but from the second lesson onwards, his Occlumency became increasingly worse.

"I can now feel Voldemort's emotions much more clearly!"

578

Chapter 578 Suspicion of Snape!!

Harry complained after a lesson on Occlumency ended, before Darren had returned from Dumbledore's place.

"I even feel more connected to Voldemort's emotions than before. I keep dreaming about that door now, and I look forward to opening it."

"Harry said angrily," Hermione said, which annoyed her.

She said sternly, "You must try your best. Dumbledore and Darren are both hoping that you can shut down your mind. You can no longer be so emotionally affected by the Sternman's emotions!"

"I've tried my best, but I feel like Snape has made me more sensitive!"

Harry got angry.

Chi Min and Ron frowned. They fell silent.

Ron suddenly said, "Is it possible that Snape made Harry's head even bigger?"

Harry and Hermione stared at him in horror.

Ron chuckled and said, "Think about it, Darren learned Occlumency from Dumbledore, but it didn't really help much."

However, he didn't have the same condition as Harry; every time he came back, he would be full of energy.

It's obvious that Headmaster Dumbledore is taking good care of him, but Harry... you know, Darren is increasingly reluctant to go to Snape's office for solitary confinement.

You used to hear him say that he did his homework at Snape's place, but now he talks less and less about what he did at Snape's place.

He is now beginning to suspect that his poor sleep has caused him to become mentally confused.

But even though Dumbledore had told him to sleep, he still refused to go.

I think Harry might have said before that Snape was once a Death Eater.”

“Oh, enough, Ron, stop with the wild guesses. I think Dumbledore clearly knows more than we do.”

He and Snape clearly have their own plans, and it's normal that they don't want to tell us. Don't make wild guesses!

Hermione interrupted Ron.

But she clearly looked anxious too. She was just trying her best to control her emotions. Anyway...

January went by quickly.

Because of the astonishing amount of homework in fifth grade.

Because of Dumbledore's Legilimency on Darren, he had a place where he could consistently farm Father Points.

Also because of the DA event, time flew by very quickly.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. February 14th.

It was both Valentine's Day and the second time I'd visited Hogsmeade this year.

They didn't make any appointments with anyone else.

Darren does get a lot of girls asking him out.

However, because there are so many people, if he agrees to date any of them, people will spread rumors that he is in a relationship, which will damage his reputation.

So he declined, saying that he, Hermione, and Harry had things to do. And they did have things to do.
