Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

Chapter 13 A unique Defense Against the Dark Arts course

Until just before going to bed, Avada listened to Shabby and the other three roommates talking endlessly about Hufflepuff's achievements in food, and the things that were said to be left by Helga Hufflepuff herself. The cooking magic almost made him hungry.

Fortunately, a certain senior arrived in time and stopped this evil act of poisoning late at night. Then he went to the kitchen and came back with a plate of fragrant baked cookies...

In the end, Avada couldn't resist the temptation and ate several biscuits with tears in her eyes before going to bed, so that she didn't even eat breakfast the next day.

What's even more tragic is that the first class in the morning is Defense Against the Dark Arts. Avada just learned from Xia Bi yesterday that the real Defense Against the Dark Arts class is very different from what is shown in the original book: Since you want to defend against black magic, you must fight, right? Since you want to fight, you must have a good body, right?

Therefore, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class not only teaches various curses and knowledge of dark creatures, but also functions as a physical education class and a fighting class. During class, it is normal for students to go downstairs and run circles around the Black Lake, or put on protective gear and practice in pairs.

"I hope there won't be any strenuous activities in the first class..."

Avada prayed secretly, and followed the Hufflepuff troop into the Defense classroom, followed by the Ravenclaws wearing blue-lined wizard robes - this made Avada feel relieved a lot, In this way, at least even if there is a confrontation project, they will not encounter the brave Gryffindor e.

After the school bell rang, a tall, thin, and elegant middle-aged wizard stepped into the classroom, smiling and waving to the students.

"Good morning, everyone! Although Principal Dumbledore has already introduced me when school started, in order to prevent some little ones from being too excited and not listening carefully, I still have to repeat it..."

He turned around and raised his hand, the chalk floated on its own, and he wrote a name neatly on the blackboard.

"Benjamin Baker, a member of the Board of Directors of the International Alliance for the Defense of Dark Arts, is also an adventurer. I have had adventures in Greece, Eastern Europe and Africa, and have fought against dark wizards and dark creatures many times, so I ask myself how to deal with dark magic. I still have some experience, so I should be able to be your professor and teach you enough and practical knowledge."

"He must be cool." Avada heard a small voice coming from Ravenclaw. It seemed to be a girl: "He is an adventurer and has been to many places! Maybe he is like Gilderoy Lockhart Just as cool a guy!”

"When I first joined the job, many old professors told me..."

Professor Baker ignored the subtle discussion below and continued: "They told me that freshmen should be allowed to experience the charm of this course in their first class in order to stimulate their interest and enthusiasm. So, I specially prepared this thing..."

He took out a magic prop that looked like a projector from under the podium, then took out the wand and pointed it at his temple, slowly pulled out a white light filament, and then integrated it into the "projector".

"Everyone, pay attention."

He tapped the projector with his wand, and the instrument projected a light screen in mid-air, on which a dazzling picture was played:

In the light curtain, Professor Baker held a wand and was fighting fiercely with a masked man wearing a gorgeous black robe.

The masked man waved several blue light blades, forcing Professor Baker to dodge aside, and then emitted a brilliant green light in an unpredictable manner toward the location where he was about to land. At this moment, the ground beneath Professor Baker's feet actually melted away like water, allowing him to blend into the ground and avoid the green light.

Then, Professor Baker suddenly appeared from behind him and gave him a fireball. The masked man quickly propped up the shield, but unexpectedly everything was just an illusion. The real Professor Baker was standing invisibly not far away, condensing an extremely powerful force. Spells. When the masked man realized that he had been deceived, he immediately set off blazing flames and burned everything around him indiscriminately, forcing Professor Baker out.

Afterwards, the two began a fierce head-on battle, sometimes fighting hand-to-hand, using wands and magic as concealed as daggers to kill; sometimes they distanced themselves, and splashed all kinds of gorgeous and powerful spells on each other like waterfalls. Later, the masked man even summoned a giant dragon, whose steel-like claws and fiery breath once put Professor Baker in danger...

After nearly ten minutes of fierce fighting, Professor Baker was superior. After slaying the dragon, he used the ingenious combination of the terrain transformed by transformation, illusion, and invisibility to deceive the masked man's charged blow, seizing the opportunity to strike. A sudden fierce attack completely defeated the opponent.

The playback of the light curtain also ends here. Professor Baker put away the projector and looked at the students below with satisfaction. At this moment, they had already lost their minds. Their pale faces were a bit nervous and excited, and they had even forgotten to breathe.

Professor Baker clapped his hands to wake them up, and the sound of exhalation suddenly sounded in the classroom.

"Merlin, it's too scary!"

"When that giant dragon suddenly appeared, my heartbeat seemed to stop..."

"And that purple light arrow, I was stunned when it hit the professor's shoulder..."

Avada was slightly better, but she was equally shocked. The battle just played on the light screen was comparable to a well-funded blockbuster, the distance shooting scene was comparable to the battle between Dumbledore and Voldemort in the movie "Order of the Phoenix", and the hand-to-hand combat was also like The most exciting martial arts movie, with a fast and fierce pace.

Professor Baker's mental power is clearly weaker than Dumbledore's, but he didn't expect it to be so terrifying in actual combat!

Professor Baker let the students discuss for a while, then clapped his hands and restored silence to the classroom. There was a look of reminiscence on his face before he said:

"What was played just now was the most thrilling and proudest battle in my adventure career. Although it is certainly far inferior to the unparalleled duel between Dumbledore and Grindelwald, it still has a certain commemorative value."

He paused and continued: "The opponent at that time was a Greek. You may have heard of his title, 'Always Ready Aethelred'. He once ruled Greece and almost became the terrifying dark wizard of the 'Shadow King' , his name is on the chocolate frog picture.”

"Like his title, Aethelred is extremely cautious. When he is well prepared, he will be almost impossible to defeat. At that time, I was investigating his dark wizard organization in Greece and defeated many of his capable men. , so he wanted to kill me personally."

"He started laying the groundwork months in advance, investigating my information, spreading false intelligence, sending out attacks to consume my energy, and using secret agents in the local Ministry of Magic to put pressure on me... At the same time, he also created an extremely sinister venue. As the battlefield to end me, there is anti-Apparition. Once you enter, you cannot leave. The air is filled with toxins, and there is a curse on the ground..."

"Fortunately, I was not completely unaware. Many of his methods did not work. But even so, I almost died due to his traps and strong personal strength, but in the end I won. It was also this battle Later, I won the honor of being a director of the Defense Against Dark Arts Alliance."

Seeing the excited and admiring looks of the little wizards in the audience, Professor Baker couldn't help but smile: "So now, everyone must have fully understood the charm and function of Defense Against the Dark Arts. So, let's start our journey. The first lesson——"

"How to use your wand."

"Many people may be wondering what kind of course this is. Doesn't using a wand just mean holding it, waving it and chanting a spell according to the standard procedure? This is indeed the case in daily life, but if you encounter a fierce battle, just these are enough It’s not enough.”

"How should you hold a wand so that it is most comfortable and stable? What posture should you adopt during combat so that you can cast spells most quickly?"

"These are the most important foundations of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Even senior Aurors may not be able to thoroughly study the knowledge involved."
