Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 376: Divination Class Teacher

As time goes by, the popularity of "The Quibbler" gradually decreases among the students. Daily life in Hogwarts seems to have returned to calm, but who knows that this is just the calm before the storm? .

"You should persuade Potter to stop their after-school exercises. Umbridge has noticed it, but there is no evidence yet." From that day on, Umbridge almost regarded Draco as her confidant , I would tell him some of my thoughts and suspicions every once in a while.

"Master Malfoy has been busy lately, so his memory has become bad. It seems that someone kept a distance between me and Harry for the sake of his own mission!" Nydia said angrily. "Isn't it too strange that you suddenly ask me to persuade him to stop his D.A. activities?"

"I didn't expect you to actually do it!" Although Draco sounded surprised, the expression on his face was very proud.

"I just...there really isn't anything I need to talk to him about recently!" Nidia said pretending not to care. In fact, she just couldn't find an entry point to ease the relationship with Harry, or to be more precise. He said that he couldn't save his dignity and took the initiative to talk to Harry. After all, he was the one who was angry in the first place.

"Really! Now that you have it, go and ask him to disband their D.A.! Father has repeatedly warned that Umbridge cannot be used to get anything against Dumbledore!" Draco said very clearly this time. Seriously, this was the first time his father asked him to complete something, and he didn't want to disappoint his father.

"Dumbledore would have been very moved if he heard these words! The two Mr. Malfoys really worked hard for his status in the school! I remember that your father didn't really agree with some of Dumbledore's teaching methods before. Ah!" Nitya teased.

"Although I don't agree with Dumbledore's conservative teaching methods, it is undeniable that he is the guarantee of the safety of the entire Hogwarts! He is also the only person the Dark Lord is afraid of." Draco replied.

"..." Nydia was a little embarrassed. She hadn't spoken for so long. It was a bit embarrassing to suddenly talk to Harry about such a request. "Is Umbridge just staring at Harry every day?" ? Doesn’t she have anything else to do?”

"In most cases, yes, she feels that Potter is Dumbledore's confidant, and all of Potter's actions may have been instructed by Dumbledore!" Draco thought for a moment and continued, "But recently she is preparing Another thing, she wants to fire a teacher who failed her assessment, and the candidate has already been decided!"

"Is it Hagrid?" Nydia asked nervously.

"No, it's Trelawney! She said Trelawny's divination is nonsense!" Draco said, "In fact, I think Umbridge's judgment is correct at this point, Hagrid At least they got us some magical creatures, right? I've seen Blaise's divination homework, it's just a waste of students' time! I really don't understand why Dumbledore asked her to be a teacher! ?"

"Oh... is it Trelawney! I thought that in order to suppress Dumbledore, Umbridge would choose Hagrid, who has a closer relationship with Dumbledore!" This result surprised Nydia, and she unconsciously She thought of the prophecy that Trelawney told herself. Could it be that it was just nonsense, but she seemed to be doing it unconsciously at the time.

"I don't know, but my father also supports Umbridge's choice, and he also wants Trelawney to be expelled!" Draco said.

"Is there anything special about Trelawney?" Nydia frowned, Lucius's decision made her a little concerned.

"Perhaps father thinks that keeping Hagrid will help Dumbledore more!" Draco shook his head.

"Are we just going to let Umbridge drive Trelawney away?" Although she had no contact with Trelawney, Nydia couldn't bear the thought of her being kicked out of school.

"She has to drive someone away. Would you rather she drive away Hagrid?" Draco asked.

"Of course not..." Nydia lowered her head and was silent for a while. If she had to make a choice between Trelawny and Hagrid, she would still prefer Hagrid privately, even though she knew that Hagrid would not be a teacher even if he was not a teacher. Will continue to work as a gamekeeper at the school. "Okay... maybe Trelawney is really not suitable to be a teacher. She always makes students panic about the future!"

A few days later at dinner time, a woman's scream broke the peace of the castle. All the students dining in the restaurant were attracted to the foyer by the scream, and Nidia was no exception. When she and Michelle When she rushed to the foyer, she saw a frightened Trelawney. Her messy clothes made her look tattered, and the bottle in her hand made her look a little crazy. At her feet There were two suitcases scattered around, as if someone had thrown them down the stairs.

"It seems that Umbridge has already started to take action." Draco didn't know when he appeared behind Nydia.

Nydia followed Trelawney's gaze and saw Umbridge standing arrogantly at the top of the stairs, looking triumphantly at Trelawney who was at a loss.

"I thought she should have resolved this matter privately instead of humiliating Trelawney in public like this." Nydia clenched her fists and looked at Umbridge angrily.

Draco grabbed Nydia's wrist. He was worried that Nydia would not be able to bear it and rushed to speak for Trelawny. "This is how she wants to show everyone her rights. Nydia, please calm down. Don't do anything irrational. Even if you rush out, nothing will change except deducting some points from Gryffindor and getting yourself a penalty."

"Can't anyone stop her from doing this?" Michelle was equally angry. Even if Trelawney was not an excellent teacher, it did not mean that she should be treated like this.

At this time, there were people watching all around. Some of them looked shocked, some looked panicked, some were full of anger but helpless, and some even sobbed because they couldn't bear the scene in front of them, but no one dared to Go forward and stop this from happening.

"That's enough! Sybil, you will not leave Hogwarts!" Finally, Professor McGonagall, who had been standing in the crowd, could no longer bear it. She walked out and patted Trelaw with her hand. Ni's back and handed her a handkerchief.

"Really! Professor McGonagall! Who approved this!" Umbridge looked at Professor McGonagall fiercely, feeling deeply dissatisfied that she dared to stand up.

"It's me!" The oak door of the castle was slowly opened, and Dumbledore walked in from the door. The edges of his robe and shoes were stained with some mud, and he looked like he had just returned from the woods.

Dumbledore's arrival calmed everyone's hearts. Trelawney seemed to have seen a savior and sobbed excitedly. Only Umbridge's face became extremely ugly because Dumbledore took advantage of the principal. Trelawney stayed in the school, but no longer held the position of divination teacher.

But these are not the things that make Umbridge the most angry. What makes her most angry is that just after she dismissed Trelawney as the divination teacher, Dumbledore had already found a new teacher. , and the half-human that disgusted Umbridge the most, a centaur.

"It's so cool!" Michelle looked at the centaur who appeared behind Dumbledore with bright eyes. "Dumbledore is the coolest principal I have ever seen! What if he hires another vampire or something?" , I will definitely not be surprised!”

"I don't think this is a good sign!" Draco frowned as he looked at what was happening in front of him. "Umbridge is not a person who is willing to suffer losses. Dumbledore has embarrassed her in public today, and she will never let it go."

"Hmph! But she must be able to do that!" Michelle said nonchalantly, "Dumbledore is the principal of the school. Even with the support of the Ministry of Magic, she still can't shake Dumbledore's status. ”

"I hope she really can't!" Nydia is not as optimistic as Michelle. She has the same worries as Draco. Umbridge will never give up. Maybe next time it will not be just It was so easy to let Trelawney go.
