Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

The weather was getting colder and colder, and the wind was howling outside. Lockhart was reading a book on the origins of ancient black magic in his office, and by the way, he was waiting for Harry to learn Occlumency.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in, wait for you for a while." Lockhart put down the book.

But it was two people who came in. Lockhart wanted to ask, what are you doing, Hermione, but thought it was too rude to ask, so he had to say hello with a smile: "Hi, Hermione is here too."

"She wants to learn Occlumency too, Professor," said Harry embarrassedly. "I persuaded her to let the professor teach her at the club outside, but she insisted."

Hermione blushed and hid behind Harry, this was a rare occasion where Pandora would never appear, how could she miss it.

"I should be glad you didn't pull Ron over, Harry," Lockhart teased.

"He wanted to come, but I stopped it," Harry explained awkwardly. "I told him I could teach him during the event."

"Uh... Speaking of which, I haven't asked about your club, how is it going." Lockhart then remembered it.

"Well, with Hermione's help, it went well," Harry looked very happy, "and Hermione's mood is much better after she has something to do."

"Oh, yes," Lockhart said a little embarrassedly, "what's the name of the club and how many people there are."

"H.A., Army of Hogwarts, Professor, what's the name like."

"Yes! It could also be Harry Potter's army, Harry." Lockhart nodded.

"How can I have an army..." Harry was a little embarrassed. "I told my classmates that you will guide us, and they are all for you."

"Ha has more than 60 people now, and I helped them practice some simple attack spells. But, prof, you basically teach them in class, so our activities are basically practice teams working together. "

"Well, a good idea, Harry. The battle you will encounter in the future will definitely not be a duel between wizards, but a group fight." Lockhart said with satisfaction.

"These were Hermione's ideas, Professor." Harry pulled Hermione out from behind.

"Well done, Hermione, you're the smartest." Lockhart encouraged her with a smile.

"It's nothing, Professor, this is the prop for our connection." Hermione gave Lockhart a fake gold Galleon with a spell on it that could connect with each other.

"Ingenious little thing!" Lockhart flipped over and looked at it, and said in admiration, "You almost established a small order of the Phoenix!"

"Professor, we have almost nothing to practice, I'm going to teach them the Patronus Charm, you should play once." Harry looked at Lockhart expectantly.

"Okay, then I will come to the next event." Lockhart said after thinking.

"Great, Professor, we'll be waiting for you!" Harry said excitedly.

"Then, now, we can start practicing Occlumency." Lockhart stood up and walked to the edge of the office. "You two, sit on the sofa."

——

"Occlumency can prevent others from invading your mind. It is a relatively obscure branch of magic, but it is quite useful." Lockhart looked at the two serious children with satisfaction, "I have been in class more than once. I told you about its usefulness, and I think you remember it, Hermione."

"Well, you said that Occlumency can effectively resist Legilimency, and it can also resist spells related to memory, including Imperius Curse, Oblivion, Memory Modification, etc., and can even weaken the effect of Cruciatus. Oh, You also said that Occlumency makes it easier to concentrate and to use complex magic and silent spells."

"The answer is very complete, Hermione, unfortunately it is not in class, otherwise I will definitely give you extra points,

Lockhart praised, "In fact, its role is far more than that. Cultivation to the highest level can even speed up the accumulation of daily magic power. Of course, it is too difficult to achieve. I'm only getting close to that, and I reckon Dumbledore and Snape are already there. "

"The spell that didn't kill you created a connection between you and You-Know-Who - you're more susceptible to the psychic influence of You-Know-Who. The principal doesn't think this should be allowed to continue, so I'm here to teach you."

"But, why doesn't Professor Dumbledore want to keep this going?" Harry asked suspiciously. "I don't like this, but it's useful isn't it? I mean...I saw that snake attack Wayne. Mr. Sly, if I hadn't seen it, you wouldn't have saved him in time, could you? Professor?"

Lockhart pondered for a moment, and decided to say a statement enough to convince Harry.

"Before You-Know-Who didn't know the connection between you and him, but if he knew that you felt his feelings and shared his thoughts, then he would create illusions to confuse you, seduce you, and even control you."

"But I entered a snake, not Voldemort!"

"Don't say that man's name, Harry, before you can beat him!" Lockhart said angrily. "The Soul of the Man-Know-Who entered the snake."

"Professor, I think it's shameful not to say that person's name out of fear," Harry said earnestly.

"Harry, it's not scary! For the sake of the people around you that you love and love you, you have to learn to change a word, there is black magic in this name, and he can know where someone said his name! Because you are in Hogg Watts, that's why it's been fine!"

"Oh, well, I'll try to..."

"It's not an effort, it's a must!"

"Okay, Professor, don't discuss this subject," Hermione said. "You just said that it's possible to confuse Harry with an illusion?"

"It's not possible, but even I can do it!" Lockhart emphasized, "remember that 'Fool's Curse'?"

Harry and Hermione's eyes lit up immediately.

"Of course I remember, that's the most interesting spell I've ever seen, and I can't find it in any book!" Hermione said excitedly, not bothering with Lockhart, "Are you going to teach us?"

"Actually, it wasn't a fool's curse, it was me who created a false impression on Umbridge!" Lockhart emphasized, "In the falsehood, I did everything she asked, so she was very satisfied and understood. ."

"So it is! You mean that the Mysterious Man will give me the same illusion, don't you?"

"Yes, maybe he will never know that you can see his behavior, but as long as he realizes, then every scene you see may be an illusion."
