Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way

The first day of Gryffindor's second year was really tough.

After the Herbal Medicine and Transfiguration classes in the morning, there is Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon.

After lunch, the two went straight to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

Although there is still more than an hour before the afternoon class, it is not bad to go to the classroom and read a book first.

It was overcast and cloudy outside, and it was impossible to sunbathe in the yard.

Harry originally thought that he and Hermione could read a long book quietly together before anyone from the classroom came.

But she was wrong, someone even went earlier than herself and Hermione!

Lavender and Parvati, good friends, finished their lunch early and sat in the first row of the classroom.

Beside them were two Hufflepuff girls whom Harry had vague memories of, and the four together firmly occupied the middle position in the first row.

It seems that our dear Professor Lockhart is very popular! Harry said softly to Hermione.

Just him? Hermione sneered.

She had heard from Harley what had happened before herbal medicine class in the morning, and her perception of Professor Lockhart had completely changed.

After all, according to Harley, she just used a very simple spell.

But Professor Lockhart couldn't break a simple spell cast by a puny, helpless second-year girl, and even he couldn't dodge it!

Hermione, who had absolute trust in Harry, did not doubt Harry's words.

Although Hermione, who had seen the picture of Harley killing the troll easily, didn't believe that Harry said she was a petite, cute and weak woman, she didn't think Professor Lockhart was weak at first.

After all, according to the description in Professor Lockhart's book, the professor easily killed a group of trolls more than once!

As a result, the reality is that the majestic Professor Lockhart was defeated by Harry, a second-year student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry...

shame!

Hermione was already considering that if Professor Lockhart was really too embarrassing in the first class, she would report him directly to the principal and ask for a new professor.

...

As time went on, the front row of the classroom filled up quickly.

Harry sat in the corner of the last row of the classroom, looking at the little witches in front of him, and had a new understanding of the charm of Professor Lockhart.

Of course, Harry is confident that his charm is fully activated, and the effect is definitely stronger than that caused by Professor Lockhart.

But Harley is relying on the extraordinary ability brought by the potion of the Witch Path, while Professor Lockhart is relying solely on his appearance, personality and eloquence!

Professor Lockhart was late when the bell rang.

His cyan robe in the morning has also turned sky blue. Obviously, the folds on the cyan robe didn't meet his needs when he first appeared.

The collar of the robe was very high, blocking his neck to prevent the strangle marks of the silk thread from being exposed——Harry didn't show mercy at all this morning, and really tried hard to tighten the thread.

Professor Lockhart put down the book in his hand, and deliberately shook his head so that the whole class could see his new hairstyle.

Students, hello everyone! Professor Lockhart coughed a few times to attract the attention of the whole class, mainly the boys in the back row, and then began to introduce himself.

I think everyone should know me, but here I still want to introduce myself—

As he spoke, he picked up the book Walking with Trolls by Neville Longbottom.

Harry looked at the sunny photo of Professor Lockhart smiling above, and wondered if he was smiling so brightly when he just finished his adventure, or if he couldn't laugh at all after being beaten up by the troll.

——I, Gilderoy Lockhart, Medal of the Order of Merlin, Third Class... Professor Lockhart was unconscious, pointing to the photo and began to introduce himself, or to show off his honor.

The girls in the front row leaned forward involuntarily, as if they wanted to get closer to Professor Lockhart.

And this is exactly the opposite of what the boys in the back row are doing.

I see you've all bought my complete books, and sure enough you like them, don't you? Professor Lockhart said loudly, ignoring the mutterings of two boys in the back row.

Then let's do a quiz first. Don't be afraid, it's just to see how well you read the book and how much you understand!

Professor Lockhart distributed the papers to the students one by one, and then returned to the podium: Give you thirty minutes, now—start!

Harry looked at the paper in his hand, blinked, and unabashedly turned to look at Hermione's.

Lockhart, standing at the highest point, naturally saw Harry's actions.

He coughed slightly, and seeing that Harry didn't pay attention to him at all, he consciously turned his gaze to the other side.

After confirming that the test papers at the back were the same as her own, and not that there was something wrong with her own test papers, Harley slumped directly on the table:

Hermione, you will copy the paper for me, won't you? As he said, Harry stared at his big watery eyes and blinked slightly.

Hermione couldn't help but tapped Harry's head heavily with the quill, rolled her eyes, and then began to answer the paper quickly.

Hermione, who likes to read books, has already read these textbooks during the holidays and memorized almost all of them.

Harry was really bored playing with the spider silk, making them make various shapes in front of her——

From small daggers and table knives to tiny spears and heavy flails, the kind that can smash a human head to powder in one blow.

Professor Lockhart on the podium has turned his body completely around, staring at another corner of the classroom.

Neville, who was extremely sensitive to sight, was about to cry at this moment.

Could it be that besides Professor Snape, Professor Lockhart of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course also sees that his strength is not good enough?

Otherwise, why is Professor Lockhart staring at me so hard?

When the test paper was about to be handed in, Harry quickly borrowed a copy of Hermione's test paper, not forgetting to change the name to her own.

I heard at noon today that a Hufflepuff classmate was reprimanded because Professor Sprout didn't receive his holiday assignment, but instead received two of Halle's!

Tsk tsk tsk, the answer is really bad... Professor Lockhart shuttled through the classmates and collected all the test papers, then flipped through them on the spot.

He shook his head again and again, picking out a bunch of questions.

However! The professor's tone suddenly became excited, I really didn't expect that two students could get full marks!

Miss Harry Potter and Miss Hermione Granger! Raise your hands, please?

Harry lay prone on the table and stretched out a hand lazily. Hermione next to her was sitting upright, but it was more like a routine.

That's great! Both of them answered Gryffindor! Thirty points for Gryffindor! Professor Lockhart shouted.

Write more about Lockhart, I try to create a Lockhart who is different from most of the fans, at least not so useless. After all, if he is completely useless, I am the first to not believe that he can sneak attack so many masters.
