Hogwarts becomes host

Every professor on the educational team at Hogwarts has real talents.

Even the most speechless Trelawney can make a true prophecy──

Or a prophecy related to Voldemort!

With the strength of Voldemort in his heyday, neither the Ministry of Magic nor Dumbledore could find his location at that time, and all kinds of magical means could not track or lock him. Precognition was naturally included, but Professor Trelawney successfully predicted Harry was born, and Voldemort would personally attack him.

Even if the specific time is not stated, it is still an amazing power.

Based on this alone, she is qualified to hold the position of Professor of Divination at Hogwarts.

Umbridge, who had attended Hogwarts before, was certainly well aware of the teaching staff at Hogwarts.

Because of this, she was the first to find Elaine. No matter how you looked at it, no one would believe that a thirteen-year-old student could teach Muggle Studies class well, right?

Not to mention that Elaine openly kissed Daphne and me without any hesitation, which was completely topical.

But it is a pity that Elaine is only inferior to veteran professors such as Flitwick, McGonagall, and Slughorn in the evaluation of students, and is better than at least half of the professors.

(Adair and Snape are still competing for the worst student rating.)

The fact that a purely written course can receive such an evaluation is all due to the wizard-specific course jointly written by educationists around the world.

In addition, Elaine will provide a variety of dazzling technological products in class, such as mobile phones, computers, tablets, game consoles, etc., and also prepare novels, comics, games, movies and other recreational products as reference materials. Their reviews are naturally very good.

Therefore, when Umbridge attacked Elaine, many people went crazy.

If Elaine resigns, where will they go to catch up on the serial?

Within three days, when Umbridge was thinking about what to do with Elaine, the Ministry of Magic received a lot of protests from parents...

So much so that Fudge had to write to Umbridge with a blue face, asking her not to touch the Shafik family, or more specifically, not to mess with Elaine.

As a result, not only did Umbridge no longer supervise the Muggle Studies class, but she also only investigated Adair's Defense Against the Dark Arts class once (and pretended to be dead and silent throughout the whole process), which upset many students who were waiting to see the show. disappointment.

Although I had known for a long time that Umbridge might not dare to attack Adair, I didn't expect that she would be so cowardly...

Elaine was a little surprised that Umbridge's evaluation among students was not bad.

This may be because she just sat aside and listened quietly to the class. When the teacher was free, she would come forward to ask questions such as teaching time, personal experience, views on Dumbledore, and whether she had encountered any trouble or harmed the students. I also occasionally ask students about their thoughts, such as rumors.

Unlike the actual professor of a certain class in the original book, Umbridge has no points of conflict with the students, and naturally there is no evaluation. The students only regard her as a Ministry of Magic official who will leave sooner or later. According to the Ministry of Magic's Do things according to the rules, and you will leave when you are done... This is the feeling.

Umbridge gained nothing inside Hogwarts, and the conspiracy theory that Dumbledore had attacked Voldemort, which was released by Fudge, also failed to create any waves.

After all, Dumbledore did not publicly announce Voldemort's return at this time, and the public had a very good impression of him. Not only did the smear campaign fail, it also weakened the credibility of the Daily Prophet.

Under different background circumstances, even if the events in the original novel occurred, the results would not be the same.

...Some things are destined to be this way.

In the dim Divination classroom, Elaine and Hermione, who had just arrived for class using time turners, finally succeeded in sliding. Just as they were about to take a breather, Harry snickered and gestured to them in the corner.

Umbridge sat there naturally, looking at Professor Trelawney on the podium with a sarcastic face.

Professor Trelawney's expression was half fear and half anger. She tightened the shawl wrapped around her body with slightly trembling hands, and looked at the entire class through the large lenses that magnified her eyes many times.

"What we are going to learn today is crystal ball divination!" She said in a concise tone that Elaine had never heard before. "Each group comes to me to receive a crystal ball. This often appears in O.W.L. exams in June. I also plan to give questions related to the crystal ball for the exam, so please concentrate on the class!"

"Hey, she skipped palmistry?" Elaine raised her eyebrows, "I was looking forward to it..."

"You actually looked forward to her lessons?" Hermione muttered. "What's in the palmistry...wait..."

Then, she became inexplicably alert. Not only did she retract her hands into her robe, she also moved to the side to distance herself from Elaine.

"Where do you want to go? Muggles also have palmistry courses. I just want to compare each other..." Elaine said dumbfounded, "And I want to touch your hand, do you need to find an excuse?"

Hermione didn't answer, just snorted coldly, turned her head and ignored Elaine, but didn't move the chair to the side.

"Maybe she wants to take some courses that she is good at so that she can save her points. This is not the first time she has been inspected." Ron gossiped and told them, "I heard that the old liar behaved particularly well during the inspection of the fifth grade divination class last week. Difference!"

"Hmm... I guess so."

Hermione made a disdainful tut, but she calmly followed Professor Trelawney's instructions, opened "Looking Through the Fog to See the Future", and prepared to start interpreting the image in the crystal ball.

The glowing crystal ball was filled with pearly white mist. Elaine stared at the ball quietly, trying to concentrate and eliminate distracting thoughts, but she always got distracted.

She had so many things to think about that it was impossible to eliminate distractions.

Besides, Hermione in front of her kept moving impatiently...

Hermione's projection is imprinted on the crystal ball, making it difficult for Elaine to stare completely at the mist, and her eyes will always drift to Hermione's reflection involuntarily...

It was much more interesting to watch Hermione than the motionless white mist, and I couldn't blame her.

"...It's so stupid, I didn't see anything." A quarter of an hour later, Hermione's patience was exhausted and she asked Elaine. "what did you see?"

"I see your reflection." Elaine said honestly. But for some reason, Hermione gave her a very angry warning look. "...Why are you angry?"

"Who told you not to pay attention?" Hermione's eyes looked as if she wanted to eat Elaine alive. "Don't joke with me in class!"

"I'm not kidding, I just have to concentrate to see your reflection in here, okay?" Elaine poked the crystal ball aggrievedly. "Then what did you see? Huh?"

"Besides dust, what else do you think I can see?" Hermione said coldly, "The professor has said before that I don't have any divination qualifications, how can I see things."

"Actually, you have seen it, but you don't know it." Ron, who was next to them, whispered in Trelawney's usual mysterious tone, "I saw it...I know what it means...it's very... Apparently...it's going to be foggy tonight!"

Harry laughed, and Hermione's face was very twisted. She wanted to laugh but didn't want to laugh in front of Elaine, so she made a strange expression.

Elaine was the only one who didn't laugh... She had already been amused by Ron's words when she read the novel before.

"Over there!" Professor Trelawney shouted loudly. At this time, everyone's heads turned in their direction, and Lavender and Parvati showed expressions of shock and indignation. "Tell me what you saw!"

"Ron saw Harry rolling down the stairs, Professor." Elaine responded immediately. "He described how he fell on his back and it was so funny."

"Hmph, looking at a crystal ball is a very delicate art." Professor Traolini snorted coldly and said in a gloomy and serious tone. "This is the first time you have peeked into this unfathomable sphere. Before you completely let go of your subjective consciousness, how can you see a clear image from the sphere? If Mr. Potter can really fall down the stairs, Mr. Weasley can only Seeing staccato clips or some foreshadowing.”

"Sorry, Professor." Ron laughed dryly, trying to divert his attention. "I'll try to concentrate..."

"Professor Traolini, can you do some demonstrations for these students?" Just when the matter was about to be calmed down, Umbridge suddenly interrupted. "The prediction you made to me last time didn't seem to be successful? If possible, I hope to see your ability to interpret the crystal ball. Oh, if you can't do it, forget it."

The whole class was silent.

Professor Trelawney was shaking with anger at these unreasonable words. Her body tensed up, as if she couldn't believe what her ears heard. Most of the students in the classroom immediately looked at Professor Trelawney. The beads and bracelets on her body jingled. It kept ringing.

"Okay." She said concisely and forcefully, and sat down directly in front of the crystal ball in front of Elaine and Hermione. "Let me demonstrate to you..."

"Okay." Umbridge chuckled, while Lavender and Parvati glared at her with hostility. "Would you please take a look at my future?"

The other students stood up curiously and gathered around Professor Trelawney. Professor Trelawney murmured some incomprehensible tones, put her face close to the crystal ball, and watched it carefully, then turned her big glasses on. Two crystal balls were reflected.

Seeing her like this, Hermione shook her head and said nothing.

"Here...there is something moving..." Professor Trelawney tried to speak in her usual ethereal voice, but her whole body was shaking with anger, which destroyed the mysterious effect of that voice. "Hmm...wait, it's getting clearer and clearer, I see it!"

Elaine raised an imperceptible smile and secretly held the wand under the table.

"I saw...I saw you sitting in a room!" Professor Trelawney said firmly and resolutely, her big eyes shining, "It was a...pink room...a wall It was covered with decorative plates... with brightly colored cats on them..."

The students whispered among themselves. It seemed that there was no such room in Hogwarts, and no one understood what Professor Trelawney was talking about.

However, Umbridge's smile stiffened, and she narrowed her eyes, looking up and down at Professor Trelawney.

"You...you were sitting there reviewing the documents...and then...cut your hand on something...well...the image was very blurry, anyway, your hand was injured! I can see it clearly, your hand It’s stained with blood!”

The tone was so sure that most of the students looked at Umbridge's hand, including Umbridge herself.

Of course there were no scars on her hands, let alone blood.

Trelawney was panting, her chest heaving violently, but she still raised her head and looked back at Umbridge like a winner, her face full of determination and pride; in comparison, Umbridge There was still an amiable smile on his face, but he raised two eyebrows.

"That's all you can do at best..." She shrugged nonchalantly and returned to her seat. "Please continue with the class and don't waste the students' precious practice time."

Soon, the students all returned to their seats, quietly staring at the sphere in a daze. Professor Trelawney also sat back in her armchair. She pulled her shawl tighter again, breathing quite heavily and looking tired.

The class ended in this inexplicable atmosphere.

Although some students spread the news, most students who had studied divination had long known what kind of person Professor Trelawney was, so naturally they didn't take it to heart.

However, the next morning, Umbridge appeared in the restaurant with a gloomy face.

Many students saw her right hand which was bandaged.

"Isn't it?" Harry and Ron were shocked, "That old liar actually succeeded in his divination?"

Elaine said nothing.

Everyone was talking about it. As one of the protagonists, Umbridge seemed very unhappy that she had become Trelawney's stepping stone. She chose the most brutal method to fight back - bringing her noteboard and notes to every divination class. Quill reported for duty, interrupting Professor Trelawney's increasingly hysterical lectures from time to time, asking her tricky and weird questions such as palmistry, seven-letter science, and dream interpretation, insisting that she predict the students' answers, and asking her to demonstrate her skills again. The power of crystal ball or tea leaf divination.

Of course, Professor Trelawney is not an idiot. Although she doesn't know why she saw the image in the crystal ball that day, she naturally knows very well how much she weighs, so most of the time she thinks it's 'a huge drain on herself' "Precognitive ability is not for fun" and other excuses to refuse.

The confidence that was finally built was quickly worn away by repeated rejection of the question.

There was nothing Elaine could do. She was willing to use illusions to suggest that helping Trelawney once was already the end of her kindness.

Moreover, casting a curse on the quill can only be used once, and using it again will definitely arouse suspicion.

In early February, the results of the survey of all Hogwarts teachers were finally released, and Umbridge deliberately posted the results on the bulletin board of the four houses to ensure that every student could see it.

Most of the professors received 'pass', while five professors, Elaine, Adair, Flitwick, Slughorn and Sprout, received 'excellent' ratings (Hermione said they were dirty). Only Professor Trelawney received the worst 'reserved' review.
