Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard Chapter 303

 Chapter 303 Lockhart's Duel Club

Even Kyle didn't expect that the things he gave to Neville would be so popular.

 With Neville's vigorous publicity, more and more people began to come to the door, wanting to buy the same anti-demon crystal...

 It is worth mentioning that even this name was given by them.

 Fred and George were both stunned. During lunch the next day, they found Kyle at the Hufflepuff table and surrounded him from left to right.

“Kyle, didn't you say you wouldn't get involved in this matter?” Fred said, “Why do so many people come to us to buy things early this morning?”

"Also, what is the anti-demon crystal..." George looked at him suspiciously, "You must be secretly doing something good behind our back."

"It's the amethyst used to decorate Christmas gifts." Kyle was a little helpless, "I gave Neville a piece yesterday, but everyone knew about it today."

　　Not only Fred and George, he also received a lot of orders early in the morning.

Kyle rubbed his forehead.

Neville wanted to buy it yesterday, but he didn't have much, so he didn't take it. He just gave the crystal to Neville.

 At that time, Neville did say that he wanted to help with publicity... I don't know what he did to achieve such a good effect.

After listening to Kyle's explanation, Fred and George roughly understood what was going on.

 “Neville Longbottom…”

 “Why didn't he come to you earlier?”

The two of them felt so sorry. If they had been a few days earlier, they would have been counting Galleons by now.

The two ate a few bites of lunch in a hurry, then rushed to Hogsmeade through the secret passage and bought many large pieces of amethyst.

Kyle divided them into pointed crystal pillars according to the way he remembered them.

To make the product more distinctive, he also added a homemade pepper ball under the crystal column.

 As long as you break the crystal at a critical moment, you can release a large amount of pepper smoke, and then take the opportunity to escape.

How can I say...it's very popular.

Fred and George went to Hogsmeade three times to replenish supplies, and the last time they bought out all the amethysts in the Devis-Bans store, but there was still some shortage of amethysts.

Kyle had to admit that he had made a miscalculation.

 Everyone seems to be worried about the secret room, and they are willing to spend ten xicos to make themselves feel at ease.

 So, even without the high-end market of Slytherin, they still made a small profit.

The only bad thing is probably that for a while afterwards, Hogwarts Castle often smelled of pepper.

Every day, little wizards accidentally break crystals, such as Neville...

He consumed the galleons so quickly that Fred and George felt a little embarrassed at the rate of one gall every two days, and gave him various offers and discounts in various ways. Not only did he return all the money he earned from Neville, he even got some of it.

Harry and Ron, who live in the same dormitory as Neville, have complained several times that everything they eat now smells like pepper.

“I think you guys should buy one too, this isn't one of those useless onions and salamander tails.”

Hermione said to them: "Crystal can observe the situation of multiple corridors at the same time, smoke can block sight, and pepper can affect the sense of smell.

Kyle has considered it very comprehensively. No matter what the monster is, it will always be useful. "

"Maybe you are right..." Ron waved his hand and said, "But if you had a roommate like Neville, you wouldn't say that."

 In this atmosphere, December is quickly approaching. Lockhart didn't know where he knew that professors could hold clubs. He found Dumbledore and wanted to participate.

So one morning, Kyle, Connor and Cedric went to the auditorium for dinner as usual, but when passing by the foyer, they suddenly noticed a new piece of parchment nailed on the bulletin board.

"what is that…"

Cedric leaned over curiously and read the words above.

"The school is going to open a duel club!" A Gryffindor in front of a few people said excitedly: "The first meeting is tonight, at eight o'clock in the evening, in the auditorium!"

"They should have been like this a long time ago." Someone said, "I am very willing to learn some dueling lessons. Maybe they will come in handy one day."

"Ha...you don't think Slytherin's monsters will duel with us." There was a questioning voice behind him.

Kyle turned around and found that it was Ron. Even though he said that, it was obvious that he was also very interested.

"Hello, Kyle." Hermione greeted: "Will you join this dueling club?"

"I will participate." Kyle nodded, "I happen to have time tonight, and I am quite interested in this club."

 “We are also participating.”

 She said to Harry and Ron: "It will always work."

“Of course I'm going, I just hope there's no pepper,” Ron whispered.

Harry nodded beside him in agreement. They had been put through a lot these days and even had less food than before.

By eight o'clock in the evening, the auditorium had completely changed.

 The long dining table disappeared, and a gilded stage stretched along one wall, illuminated by hundreds of candles floating in the air.

By the time Kyle and the others came in, the place was already crowded with people... Almost all the students from the school were here. Everyone gathered in twos and threes, everyone holding their own wands and their faces full of excitement.

"Who do you think will teach us?" Qiu asked curiously: "Could it be Professor Dumbledore."

“It could also be Professor Flitwick.” Cedric said, “He was a famous dueling champion when he was young, so it would be perfect for him to teach us.”

“Maybe not.” Fred looked at the golden stage and whispered: “This gorgeous decoration reminds me of a person.”

A few minutes later, Lockhart walked onto the stage, resplendent in his burgundy robes, with Snape following behind him.

"I knew..." Fred groaned, "Except for this peacock, the other professors don't like those fancy stage decorations."

"And Snape...there's no worse combination." George sighed, "Is it too late for us to leave now?"

Kanna looked back at the closed auditorium door, "It looks like it's too late."

On the stage, Lockhart waved to everyone to be quiet, "Come around, come closer."

"That's it. In order to allow everyone to protect themselves when encountering danger, Professor Dumbledore agreed to let me open this small dueling club and teach you some experience."

“In addition, I would also like to thank Professor Snape. He readily agreed to be my assistant. He is really a good person.”

 Snape's face looked a little ugly.

If it wasn't for Dumbledore to sign the information sheet, how could he and Lockhart come to participate in such an extremely stupid dueling club... and as an assistant!

But Lockhart didn't notice the change in Snape's face at all. He was still grinning and said:

"It's just a small demonstration, don't worry, I will pay attention to the intensity... When it is over, I will return your Potions Professor intact to you."

Snape's eyes became colder. He stared at Lockhart, as if he was seeing Harry with his eyes closed.
