Chapter 141: Go Up On Stage
Chapter 141: Go Up On Stage
Malfoy Clan is a member of the twenty-eight pure-blooded clans.
The current clan leader, Lucius Malfoy, was a Death Eater. Although he was not a loyal follower of Voldemort, he was the highest among all followers, whether it was wealth, reputation, or fame.
Therefore, once Voldemort returns, the Malfoy Clan would be able to provide the greatest help to Voldemort.
In the same way, among all of Death Eater's forces, the Malfoy family would cause the most serious damage to the magic world.
Dumbledore noticed this.
After knowing the basilisk, Dumbledore relied on his master Legilimency to easily find the notebook in Ginny Weasley's hand, Horcrux.
It was not difficult for Dumbledore to investigate the source of the notebook, so he could confirm that the final source was Lucius Malfoy.
For this reason, Dumbledore had a complete plan. He wanted to expel the Malfoy family, one of the school directors, from the board of directors so that the other party would not have a bad influence on Hogwarts in the future as a director.
Therefore, Dumbledore's so-called fishing meant that through this year's crisis incident in Hogwarts, he would finally grab hold of Lucius Malfoy's weakness and force the other party to give up the board of directors.
Everything was negotiable if Malfoy agreed. Otherwise, Dumbledore would reveal the identity of Lucius Malfoy as a Death Eater.
In addition, many people and many families had been hurt by Death Eater. There were many people who wanted to seek revenge on Death Eater.
Driven by hatred and greed, once Malfoy's identity was revealed, there would only be endless attacks waiting for the other party.
Therefore, Dumbledore confirmed that once Lucius Malfoy was caught, the other party would never dare to let people announce the evidence.
The other party had to give up the identity of the school director.
Combined with the information in his memory and some preparations that Dumbledore simply mentioned, Coven finally came up with the whole line of the 'fishing plan'.
It was no wonder that even if Dumbledore could deal with the threat of the basilisk, he still had to continue to let it go and hide it from the professors.
Only when everyone was kept in the dark would Lucius Malfoy not notice anything strange and would not take the opportunity to get out of the whole incident in advance.
Therefore, the entire Hogwarts continued to be anxious about Dumbledore's concealment. Many people used their own ways to improve their own safety.
For example, the f*cking Professor Lockhart.
Because of this, he organized a Duel Club, aiming to improve the students' casting abilities. The declaration would allow the students to increase their survival rate when facing the monsters in the secret chamber.
Penelope and Cho Chang wanted to participate. After all, they were both mixed-blood and were the targets of the snake monsters.
But Coven stopped them. After all, he knew that the so-called "Duel Club" was just a farce.
However, Coven didn't expect himself to be able to stop his friends, but he couldn't stop himself from coming into contact with that club...
..
That afternoon.
Coven and a Ravenclaw girl had just walked to the door of the practice room when they saw Snape coming towards them like a big bat.
Snape turned his line of sight without waiting for everyone to say hello and stared at Coven.
"Come here."
Without explaining anything, Snape went past the crowd and continued forward.
Everyone looked at each other blankly, and then Coven quickly arranged, "You go in and practice the spell I taught you yesterday. Don't wait for me."
The three Ravenclaw girls nodded in agreement, while Coven turned around and chased after Snape.
..
Quickly catching up to Professor Snape, Coven wanted to ask what happened.
But Snape had already understood Coven's character, so he did not give anyone a chance to speak. He directly said coldly, "Don't be so long-winded. Just do whatever I tell you to do later."
Hearing this, Coven helplessly closed his already opened mouth again and obediently followed Snape all the way until he finally arrived in a very spacious room.
Arriving at the destination, Coven finally knew where this was. Wasn't this club venue that Professor Lockhart had set up?
He didn't expect that he would still have to participate in this in the end.
Coven's arrival caused a commotion. The students present saw that even a famous person like Coven had come, so they couldn't help but have more expectations for this club.
Snape took Coven here and went straight to Slytherin's students.
Seeing this, Coven had to go to Gryffindor with a few greetings.
The twin brothers were there, and even Wood and Coven's two roommates came to the club.
Fred dragged Coven to a group of senior students, smiled, and whispered, "I didn't expect that even you would come. Our Mr. Quinn is actually afraid of the monsters in the secret chamber?"
"No!" George bared his fangs and brandished his claws, not knowing who he was imitating. At the same time, he roared in a strange voice, "I'm here to study if that monster can be eaten!"
"Hahahaha..."
The twins laughed and clapped their hands.
Coven unhappily reached out and pushed the two buffoons. Then, he turned around and greeted them, "Wood, why are you here?"
"I have nothing to do." Wood shrugged helplessly. "Now that Hogwarts is under martial law, I have to stay in the dormitory other than class, so I took this opportunity to come out to relax and watch the fun."
"Is everyone here?" Coven looked around at his roommates and classmates of the same grade.
Everyone smiled and nodded, admitting they were all here to watch the show.
At this time, Professor Lockhart, who was wearing an exquisite shirt, a vest, and a one-shoulder cloak, walked up to the duel stage and shouted for all the students to come closer.
Coven and the other senior students consciously stepped back, giving the front row to the juniors.
After surrounding the dueling platform, the senior students began to whisper to the surrounding students. Not many people cared about what Professor Lockhart was saying.
Because everyone had experienced so many 'Defense Against The Dark Arts' professors, everyone could easily see how good the teaching level was.
Therefore, this year, Professor Lockhart could only fool the junior students and a small group of senior students. Most of the senior students did not buy him.
"Coven Quinn!"
Suddenly, Snape's reputation interrupted Coven and the surrounding students.
Coven turned his head in surprise and saw Snape turn his head to signal him to go on stage.
He was a little dumbfounded.
But under Snape's glare, Coven had no choice but to jump onto the duel stage...
