Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard

Coming out of Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore, Hannah pointed to the open space at the door and said regretfully.

"If you had arrived a few days earlier, you would have been able to meet Professor Lockhart. He has been holding autograph signings here during this period, and many of our classmates have gotten the professor's autographs.

Professor Lockhart seems obviously much more reliable. I have been reading his books these days. I believe I will learn a lot of useful things in this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts class. "

Hannah said, and Gretel nodded in agreement, not choosing to break the little witch's fantasy before school started.

There was no regret on his face, but full of joy.

Then the little witch said that on the days of the book signing, the Weasley family took Harry to Diagon Alley to buy textbooks.

Mr. Arthur Weasley had a big fight with Lucius Malfoy for some reason, and both of them lost the prize.

In those days, the wizards in the tavern kept making drinks about this matter for several days.

Hearing this, Grete's face showed a little regret.

He remembered that in the original world line, Lucius took this opportunity to mix the notebook Horcrux into Ginny Weasley's textbook.

If you miss the battle between Arthur Weasley and Lucius Malfoy, you will miss the simplest opportunity to get the notebook.

If he had been there at the time, he would have found a way to add fuel to the fire so that he could take advantage of the chaos and get his hands on the notebook.

He had no other ideas but wanted to ask young Professor Tom for advice.

Maybe he can draw parallels and make it easier for him to absorb the intellectual legacy Professor Tom left him.

Now that he had missed this opportunity, it would not be that simple for him to get the notebook out of Ginny Weasley.

Grete felt that he had to speed up, at least get the notebook before the secret room incident started.

Only in this way can the whole thing be nipped in the bud, otherwise once Ginny is controlled and the basilisk is released, there will definitely be casualties.

As long as there are casualties in Hogwarts, Dumbledore will definitely pursue the matter to the end.

——

Returning to the bar, Grete did not expect to receive an unexpected letter.

My dear student Grete:

I'm glad you can come back to the UK. I thought you were afraid of me, my stupid teacher, and planned to transfer to America.

I don’t know how your current situation is. How much have you studied the things I left for you, and how many problems have you encountered?

If you need my guidance, you are welcome to bring your questions and come back with the servant I sent to invite you.

I've asked them to prepare a room for you.

In addition, can you tell your teacher why the two loyal servants I sent to America to invite you have not come back yet?

Your teacher, Tom.

Professor Tom is really cautious. Here Grete just finished reading the letter and didn't even put it down.

The entire letter spontaneously ignited and soon turned into a pile of ashes.

Grete felt funny in his heart. It seemed that Teacher Tom did not trust him as much as he said.

It was obvious that he was afraid that Grete would sell him out, so he sent a confidential letter.

Hannah was originally looking at Gretel with curiosity, but after seeing the letter in Gretel's hand spontaneously ignited, she decisively looked away.

She didn't want Gretel to think she was prying into his secrets.

“Hannah, do you have an owl messenger here that I can rent?

I need to send a letter to Hogwarts to see if it's possible to check in early. "

——

Gretel never expected that it would be Snape, an old bat, who came to pick him up.

And the first time they met, Snape gave him a big surprise.

Snape drawled, his tone full of impatience.

"I hope the savage land of America has not rusted your brain. If you can't answer my question, you can take the train back to Hogwarts by yourself.

Let me ask you, there are several ways to brew potion. "

"Professor, seven kinds, decoctions, brews, infusions, ointments, poultice, tinctures, and lotions."

"What materials are needed for the beauty potion?"

"The beauty potion has two stages. The materials required for the first stage are fairy wings and morning dew.

The second stage requires ginger, mantle, rose, and unicorn tail hair. "

…

The moment Snape appeared, Hannah seemed stunned and sat there motionless.

Gretel did not recover until Snape took her away from the tavern.

After the two of them had left for more than ten minutes, they took several swigs of the brandy that was to be served to the guests' tables, and then let out a long breath as if they had survived the disaster.

"Uncle Tom, did you see that? Gretel is so handsome. Professor Snape is so strict, and he got all the answers right."

Hannah's tone was very excited. She had known that Gretel was excellent, but she didn't expect him to be so knowledgeable.

Grete was able to answer all the questions that Professor Snape asked about how to brew the potion, questions that she had never even heard of before.

Judging from the professor's expression, Grete's answer was obviously approved by him.

She even saw a smile on the face of Professor Snape, known as the devil. Merlin, this is incredible.

Hannah couldn't wait for school to start now. She couldn't help but tell others about the secret that Snape could actually laugh.

After apparating with Gretel near Hogwarts, the two stopped.

"It seems that you have not wasted your three months in America, but I don't think it is worthy of praise, so I put down the showy expression on your face.

In my opinion, if you can forget what you have learned in three months, then you should give up the subject of Potions as soon as possible. "

Grete was too lazy to pay attention to this arrogant person, and just lowered his head silently and rolled his eyes.

No one is a fool, how can we not see the corners of your lips that just turned up?

However, Gretel did not expect Snape's praise, and he did not care at all about Snape's venomous instinct that had been engraved in his bones.

After getting along with him for a school year, he had already become accustomed to this kind of verbal attack every moment.

Instead, he was grateful that Snape would take over the task of escorting him back to school.

You must know that the time of any potion master is extremely precious, and being able to put down your own potion to pick him up is enough to show your favor.

After all, at first he thought it would be Professor Flitwick coming.

There is no way, who makes his dean the most idle? In the entire Hogwarts, he is the only one who has time to receive the little wizards who are in a bad mood every day and listen to them talk about their sorrows.

By the way, let the little cakes dance to make them happy.

"The next step is Hogwarts. You can't use Apparition here, so you can go back with me on the broomstick.

Don't tell me you can't ride a broom. I asked about it and found out that your flying lessons were pretty good.

Moreover, Rolanda Huoqi said at the regular teacher meeting that you have a good talent, but you are a little too lazy to show it.

If you insist that you can't ride, then just run from here to Hogwarts, I won't take you. "

In order to pick him up, Snape was prepared, even preparing two broomsticks.

It looked like it wasn't the crappy brooms used in flying lessons.

Although they still look a bit old, at least the tail hairs of these two brooms are still intact.

However, Gretel did not take the broom from his hand. Instead, he smiled slightly and took out his wand.

In Snape's shocked eyes, Gretel soared into the sky, leaving only Snape's back fading away.

Snape was stunned for a moment, then with a sharp look in his eyes, he kicked his feet and hurried up.

When Hogwarts Castle could be seen in the distance, Snape motioned for Gretel to fall to the ground.

"McGarrett, if I were you, I would never show off my flying spell in front of anyone. This is a piece of advice."

He didn't explain much, he just pulled out the other broom and threw it in front of Gretel.

As one of the Dark Lord's most trusted servants, he knew more than most Death Eaters.

From Gretel's flying spell, he could see the figure of that person.

Although he has turned from darkness to light, it does not mean that he has abandoned everything in the past.

He knew what the Dark Lord looked like to others.

He was not the only one who had seen the Dark Lord's flying spell.

If anyone else sees Gretel flying, even if just one person thinks of the Dark Lord, Gretel's future will be filled with darkness.

This is the case with British wizards. They don't dare to deal with the Dark Lord, and they can even kneel before the Dark Lord without dignity.

However, if there is a person who is somewhat similar to the Dark Lord, and they have enough ability to handle it.

They certainly wouldn't mind giving that person some eye drops and some stumbling blocks.

Let’s leave aside others, let’s just talk about Dumbledore, the actual controller of Hogwarts.

If he saw Gretel's flying spell, he might not do anything, but he would definitely keep Gretel under surveillance.

It's better not to have this kind of thing happen.

He trusted Dumbledore, but that didn't mean that he completely agreed with Dumbledore, even if there wasn't a Dark Lord waiting outside.

He had long wanted to protest to Dumbledore.

He wholeheartedly disagreed with many of Dumbledore's actions.

Especially that damn savior training plan.

Gretel didn't know that Snape had so many words in his mind, but there was no doubt that Snape had never harmed him.

"Okay, Professor."

Gretel didn't say anything else. He picked up the broom and followed Snape to fly slowly to Hogwarts.

——

Hogwarts Headmaster's Office.

"Welcome back to Hogwarts, Mr. Gretel."

Professor McGonagall still has the same expression that has never changed, serious and kind.

Professor Sprout still had the same smiling expression.

However, it can be seen from the thinner cheeks that the living conditions in the ancient jungle during this holiday should not be that good.

But her eyes were full of joy, so she should have gained a lot.

In addition to Snape, who had just returned with him, three deans from the four major colleges came.

The only person they didn't see was Professor Flitwick from Ravenclaw.

Seeing that no one paid any attention to him after welcoming him, he planned to go back to his dormitory.

Who would have thought that as soon as he started to leave, the office door suddenly opened.

Professor Flitwick walked in drunkenly.

Also coming in was Dumbledore, who also smelled of alcohol.

Snape spoke sadly.

"Headmaster Albus Dumbledore, so when you said you went to the tavern to find Filius Flitwick, you meant to go to the drinking party with him?"

Dumbledore blushed for the first time in a long time, "It was a rare opportunity for us to have a ten-pin bowling match, so we just watched it for a while.

Severus, you should come too. You don't know the angle of the goal. It's so great. If I were more than ten years younger, I would definitely choose to play. "

It was okay if he didn't speak, but when he spoke, Professor McGonagall's face darkened.

"Mr. Gretel, you can go back to Ravenclaw Tower first. A house elf will bring you food later. If you have any other needs, you can ask them."

Gretel ignored Dumbledore and Professor Flitwick's calls for help and quickly fled from the office.

Before the door could be shut tightly, Professor McGonagall's anger burst out.

"Last semester, something as big as the mysterious man sneaking into Hogwarts happened. Didn't you learn a lesson?

Seeing that the school season is about to start again, aren't you worried that something dangerous will happen again?

If any little wizard is harmed because of our laziness, how can we explain it to the parents?

Also, Albus, have you forgotten that the school board impeached you? "

Ravenclaw Tower.

The Yinghuan, which had been deserted for three months, finally welcomed a living person. The usually aloof doorknocker suddenly became talkative.

After asking Grete several questions in a row, he reluctantly opened the door to the common room.

Gretel almost didn't recognize Sebastian when he saw him for the first time.

If it weren't for the birdcage with his name engraved on it, he wouldn't have believed that the fat bird in front of him was actually a raven known for its intelligence and majesty.

After not seeing Sebastian for three months, Gretel found that he had at least doubled in weight under the feeding of house elves.

There is no sign of the majesty or strength of a raven at all. He looks like a useless bird just waiting to die.

After knocking on the cage, Sebas reluctantly glanced at it with half-open eyes, then turned around and fell asleep again.

When he left, Professor Flitwick reassured him that the school would arrange for someone to take good care of his raven.

If he had known this, he would have followed Terry's suggestion and sent Sebastian to work in a letter delivery center.

Although I have to deliver letters as a public postman every day, at least it won't be like this.

Gretel doubted that if Sebastian was to deliver letters as a postman, some hungry people would roast him as a delicacy sent from heaven.

After all, it's now more chunky than a raven, resembling a roast chicken.

"We must lose weight. Sebastian, for your health, your rations will be halved from today on. From tomorrow on, send me a message."

Gretel said fiercely.

Two in one today, good night.
