"Because this is my first time as a teacher, I hope to get everyone's opinions and suggestions. Dear students, do you think there is any room for improvement in my courses?"

After leading the little wizards to learn about today's dark magic creature - Xinkpunk, a kind of will-o'-the-wisp creature, Lupine stood on the podium and asked.

He only took one class break and was able to attend normal classes during the second period. However, Dudley gave him more than one class because there were seven grades in Hogwarts.

"Professor Lupine, I think that in addition to learning how to deal with dark magical creatures, everyone should also learn some useful things."

Unsurprisingly, it was Dudley who spoke.

"Oh, what does our Professor Dursley have to say?" Lupine said with a smile when he saw it was Dudley.

There was a burst of good-natured laughter all around. The content of Dursley's class could indeed be called a professor. The content of that class was widely publicized by the little wizards of Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, but not Ravenclaw and Slytherin, who were in class together, were very upset when they knew about this. If they had known that Mr. Dursley was in class that day, they would have skipped class to attend.

"For example, learn the Patronus Charm."

Dudley glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window and the rags flashing across the sky from time to time.

"At least let everyone have some ability to protect themselves against those things outside."

Dudley's words made the little wizards stop laughing, and even Lupine stopped smiling.

Dementors really don't have much IQ. Dumbledore taught them a lesson and they stayed honest for a few days. Dudley taught them a lesson and they stayed honest again for a while, but now there are signs that they are ready to move again.

He just stayed away when he saw Dudley and Dumbledore.

Dudley is not the nanny of Hogwarts. He will not stay by the little wizard's side all the time. If you want to avoid being hurt, you have to rely on yourself.

"Professor Lupine, what do you think?"

The Patronus Charm is a high-level magic spell and is not easy to learn. However, just because it is not easy to learn does not mean that it cannot be learned. The premise is that the professor must teach everyone.

"Mr. Dursley, you can actually teach everyone."

Dudley shook his head. He had not yet formed his own Patronus Charm. He just relied on his large capacity to control everything, so he would not mislead others.

Moreover, he is not a professor, this is not within his scope of responsibilities, so don’t even think about using him for free.

Seeing Dudley's clear refusal and seeing the expectant looks in the little wizards' eyes, Lupine could only take over this important task himself: "Then starting from today, in addition to learning how to deal with dark magical creatures in each class, I will also spend some time studying. Patronus Charm.”

"This spell is not easy to learn. Many Aurors don't know how to do it. Everyone should be alert."

I really want to see these dementors rushing into Hogwarts, only to find that they have a Patronus Charm in their hands.

The life of study was boring and long, ordinary but interesting. During this period, Dudley sent invitations to several selected young wizards, and also conducted tests on several young wizards who applied to join the disciplinary group.

In short, the disciplinary team has a few more members.

In Potions class, Dudley did not learn the potions taught by Snape along with other young wizards, but started to study new content on his own.

"First, fresh Atractylodes macrocephala."

Dudley took out a plant with small purple flowers on the top, cut its gray-yellow rhizome into pieces with a knife, and then mashed the flowers and leaves.

Atractylodes has the effect of replenishing qi.

"Then Schisandra chinensis." Dudley put some black dried fruits into the crucible, put the newly cut Atractylodes rhizomes into it, and started to simmer over low heat.

Schisandra chinensis nourishes the kidneys and promotes fluid production, strengthens muscles and bones, makes the body stronger, and replenishes vitality.

"Then comes Ligustrum lucidum." Dudley put another bunch of plants with small red and black fruits into the freshly mashed white vegetables, and poured a little bit of water into it.

Ligustrum lucidum has the effects of nourishing the liver and kidneys, clearing away heat and improving eyesight.

"The last ones are unicorn horn powder and armadillo bile." The first ones belong to the category of traditional Chinese medicine, and the latter two are the body parts of magical creatures.

Mix the golden powder and dark green juice together, weigh it, and add it in little by little while stirring continuously in the dry pot.

After a while, the mashed plants were also put in.

After a while, a strong medicinal smell came out of Dudley's dry pot.

Dudley nodded with satisfaction at the smell.

Snape just frowned slightly. Although he didn't know what potion Dudley planned to do, he just felt that Dudley had an unnecessary step, but he didn't say anything more and walked away from him silently.

She had promised Dudley that she would never interfere with him and would only answer questions when asked.

If there is a certain logic to the first steps, the following steps make Dudley's style of painting begin to go awry.

"Fern root powder!"

Dudley took out a pile of hard, black dry vermicelli and poured it into the crucible.

"Houttuynia cordata" took out the main ingredient that was used to make a slight magic enhancement potion and poured it into it as well.

After boiling for about seven or eight minutes.

Dudley once again pulled out a pile of bright red substance.

"chili."

"And potatoes"

Soon, the smell of Chinese medicine in the crucible became much weaker, replaced by a rich fragrance?

Goo.

Neville's stomach suddenly rumbled, which was extremely clear in the potions room.

He immediately blushed.

"Longbottom, if you are hungry, eat all the aconite in front of you. I guarantee that you will not feel hungry again."

Snape finally couldn't bear it anymore and stood in front of Dudley with a dark face.

"And you, Dursley, are you going to cook something to eat in my class?"

"Of course not Professor, I'm working on a brand new potion."

Dudley answered without even raising his head, keeping his eyes on the cauldron.

"Hmph," Snape snorted coldly, shook his sleeves and left.

Even if you are favored by Snape, don't expect him to be kind to you.

Unless you can look exactly like Lily.

As time went by, the fragrance began to fade away and returned to the smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

The bell rang, and the little wizards began to walk out of the classroom. Dudley was still concentrating on brewing the potion.

Anyway, Potions class is the last one, so there is no such thing as absenteeism.

Snape originally wanted to say something, but looking at Dudley who was so focused, he said nothing in the end. Before leaving, he placed the key to the Potions classroom on Dudley's desk and gently closed the door to the classroom.

After a while, the classroom door was gently pushed open, and Hermione walked in quietly.

She didn't disturb Dudley, she just put the food she was holding on the table nearby, cast a spell to keep it warm, and then sat silently next to Dudley, supporting her head with her hands, watching quietly. .

After a while, Harry also slipped in. He was holding a glass of frozen pumpkin juice.

After putting down the pumpkin juice, he wisely left.
