Most of the functional areas of Hogwarts are as follows, such as various classrooms, library, school doctor's office, etc.
It’s not that there is nothing on the eighth floor, but as a Slytherin, Marcus will naturally not go to the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw lounges, and Saturdays and Sundays will not go to the Astronomy Tower or Good time in the Divination Classroom.
Of course, no one stipulates that you can't wander around the castle at will, but looking at his sneaky and urgent look, you can directly rule out this option.
Professor Flitwick's office was in the other direction, so there was only one room in use on the road ahead of him - the office of the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
Aini hurriedly went downstairs to find an empty classroom. As soon as he entered the door, he turned over the left cuff and showed a hidden button, and then pointed on it with his index finger and middle finger in opposite directions.
Silently, wisps of light poured out from the buttons and merged into a complex linear pattern in mid-air.
I am afraid that few people will recognize that this is the simple map on the seventh floor where Aini is located. There are two or three small dots representing characters, but he does not include himself.
Aini slid his finger, and the lines transformed into a map on the eighth floor. As expected, the dot marking Marcus Flint moved forward slowly, and finally stopped in front of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
When the dot representing Peter faced the door and the two names moved indoors, Ani also took steps towards the principal's office.
"Hey Albus, how does it feel to be a vocational teacher again?"
Looking at a certain old fish monster who was busy grading homework, Aini couldn't help but make a joke.
"Well, the kids are very energetic, especially the two Weasleys."
Dumbledore dipped his hands in ink and wrote the last comment on the parchment.
"Need an automatic quill? I have a spare here."
Ani took a look and saw beautiful cursive characters falling on the page as the pen tip rustled across the page. Each word looked like a flower stretching its body.
"Thank you, but it's better for the old man to get used to it."
The old man shook the quill in his hand and put the corrected page aside.
The perfectly arranged characters looked like exquisite works of art, but after reading the contents inside, Aini couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. It is estimated that the recipient will not be in the mood to treat them as collectibles.
The senior transfiguration professor's corrections were as expected meticulous and to the point, but... he was unexpectedly venomous.
The gentle words were like sharp arrows with barbs on them. Even Aini, a bystander, wanted to tear them to pieces.
"I think... uh... those kids will be grateful to you later."
Aini commented with a strange look on his face. After the old principal restarted the class, he went to sit in on the class out of curiosity. The old principal had solid skills, humorous words, and insightful explanations of knowledge. His words were very charming and made people feel like they were taking a spring breeze. feeling.
Who would have thought that when revising homework, the wording would be two extremes. Update without error@
"Haha, but I think now they're going to scratch my mouth when they get the assignment."
The old man's eyes were dazed for a moment, as if he was thinking of the past, and then he laughed and opened the drawer and took out two chocolate frogs.
"Well, the familiar smell is the most nostalgic."
Throwing one of the boxes to Ani, Dumbledore sighed, took the black frog's head and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Familiar smell?"
Ani's eating style was not as unrestrained as Dumbledore's. He first tapped the chocolate frog's forehead to break the activation spell on it, and then took a bite.
"I'm afraid the grandfathers of those little guys are more familiar with the taste of your writing, but I guess they won't tell stories to their grandchildren about how they tore their homework to pieces because of a comment."
"Some people did do this at first, so I later used some small tricks. If they want to tear the comments into pieces again, I'm afraid it won't be that easy in a short time."
The old man winked at Aini playfully, picked up his wand and drew a circle on the corrected homework, making the already strong parchment extremely strong.
"The children are going to hate you, Albus, and maybe it won't be long before you're not the one they want. (This chapter is not over yet!)

You're right about the second half of the sentence, but the first half...maybe someone will be responsible for all the Transfiguration courses soon. "
After finishing speaking, Aini did not show off, and directly stated the purpose of coming today. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~
"I want to take leave."
"Okay, how long will it take?"
Dumbledore didn't ask why, and simply approved Ani's vacation.
For Minerva, Filius, Sprout, etc., all faculty members including Aine, Dumbledore will regard them as friends, colleagues, or followers and continuations on the path of pursuing magic. The successors of Torch, but they will not be regarded as subordinates.
He believed that Aini had his own judgment. If it was not an urgent matter, the other party would probably not ask for leave at this juncture.
The old man knew very well that Aini was different from Minerva in that he had never gone to school here. Just trying to tie him to the Hogwarts chariot with friendship was not reliable. If you want a stable relationship, you must have Same interests.
As the saying goes, if one gains, both will be prosperous, and if one loses, both will suffer.
If you want to do this, you must first ensure that the help Aini gets from Hogwarts is greater than the burden the school adds to him.
To put it bluntly, just listen to the saying "If you drink water, you will be warm". The most fundamental reason why Hogwarts can attract a group of top wizards is to provide them with the environment they want.
Thousands of years of accumulated magical knowledge, abundant resource reserves, natural ties from the same source, and the transcendent identity it can provide...
It is precisely because Hogwarts has what they want that they can retain talent.
Just like how Voldemort used force to overwhelm people in his later period, the more force he exerts, the greater the rebound will be.
It will either devour itself or collapse the whole of England. In the end, no one will win.
Whether it is Little Tom in the early stage, Grindelwald or Dumbledore, they will not force others to make choices, but will turn the results they want to see into the optimal solution for the other party.
People may succumb to the oppression of powerful people, but they will definitely be more willing to follow their own choices. .
