Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard Chapter 677

Chapter 677: Professions in the Magical World

Because of the heavy homework, a very interesting thing happened during this year's Easter vacation... Not a single student in the school decided to go home. The Hogwarts Express waited at the platform all morning, but no one was picked up. Everyone agreed. I chose to stay in school.

 This has never happened in previous years.

The library has become the most popular place. It is full of people before eight o'clock every morning. If you arrive late, you have to find another place to do your homework with the borrowed reference books.

 But this is not so convenient.

After all, the assignments assigned by professors are not only large in number, but also involve various knowledge points. One or two reference books are definitely not enough. Sometimes when they are halfway through writing, they have to return to the library to borrow books.

 As a result, some people are getting up earlier and earlier, especially fifth- and seventh-grade students, and are even waiting at the door of the library at six o'clock.

 It was a good vacation, and I was more tired than usual in class.

　　"Crazy... all of Hogwarts is crazy."

Early in the morning, Mikel and Ryan were complaining in the dormitory while putting robes on their heads.

“We now have to wake up an hour early just to find a spot in the library. I've never gotten up so early before…”

Mikel said a little irritably. He looked at Kyle who had just sat up from the bed, "Why haven't you got dressed yet? Forget it, I won't wait for you. Do I need to save a place for you... If in the library If there's still room available.”

"No, you guys go ahead." Kyle waved his hand, "I just applied for practical activities from the Ministry of Magic, so I don't need to do homework."

Mikel, who was about to go out, suddenly stopped and turned his head stiffly.

"What did you say?" His voice was high and shrill, sounding like a goose being pinched by the neck. "You don't do your homework... and the professors agree?"

"Well, most of the professors have agreed." Kyle stretched, "This is a serious matter. Even the minister has agreed. There is no reason for the professors to refuse."

For a moment, Mikel and Ryan felt like their stomachs were filled with lemons, so sour that their expressions were distorted.

 “Working at the Ministry of Magic is amazing...” said a sour voice.

“Although I don't like this job very much, I must admit that at some times, this identity is quite useful.” Kyle said with a smile, “Come on, one day you can do it too.”

 “Ho!” Mikel laughed strangely, and then the two of them turned and left without even looking at Kyle.

 Kyle can not do his homework, but they can't. If they delay for a while longer, there will be no room in the library.

 After they left, the dormitory suddenly became quiet.

 When Kyle slowly arrived at the common room, he found that it was also occupied by people doing homework.

Each armchair was filled with people, and the table that originally contained various snacks and snacks was now replaced by stacks of books and parchment.

Kyle had the good sense not to show off that he didn't have to do homework, and quietly left the common room.

There are also many people in the auditorium, which is also the most popular place besides the library and common room.

 Here, everyone can do their homework directly after eating, without having to make an extra trip, and because there are so many people, they can also borrow each other's reference books.

This also made the auditorium noisy and lively.

After Kyle simply ate a few fried egg and ham sandwiches, he left the auditorium and went to the outside field.

 Connor and Cedric didn't have time, and Kyle didn't want others to see that he was too busy, so he decided to go to Hagrid's place to see.

 Haven't seen each other for a while, and the injuries on Hagrid's face are almost healed, only a few traces can be seen vaguely.

"How come you have time to come to my place?" He looked very happy, put down the wood in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Have I not congratulated you on entering the Ministry of Magic?"

“Stop talking about this.” Kyle rubbed his forehead, “What are you doing?”

 “I'm going to make a bowl,” Hagrid said.

"Bowl?" Kyle thought he heard wrongly, and subconsciously glanced at the wood that Hagrid placed next to him... It was indeed hollowed out in the middle, but what can I say, if this thing is bigger, it can still be used. Come give the first graders a bath.

 This is a bowl?

"Oh no, I made a mistake..." Hagrid quickly changed his words: "I meant that I was going to make a wooden barrel... um... to deliver food to the Thestrals. The previous one was bitten."

Seeing Hagrid's guilty look, Kyle suddenly understood and said firmly:

"This is not for the Thestral, but for the giant you hide in the Forbidden Forest."

"Okay." Seeing what Kyle said, Hagrid didn't hide any more. "I've recently been teaching Grawp to eat in a normal way, but the progress is not ideal. He seems to prefer holding food in his hands. …Oh, Gralop is his name.”

"I don't think it's necessary, Hagrid," said Kyle. "The giants can't eat their food even if it's covered in mud, can they?

"And based on their IQ, it seems difficult to understand what tableware is, so why should you bother."

"No, I need to teach him some rules." Hagrid shook his head and said firmly: "This way I can take him out and let everyone see that he is not in danger."

"Take him out?" Kyle blinked. "Take him to where, Hogwarts? Or are you planning to let him work as a gamekeeper with you?"

"I know this is difficult, but I have to do it..." Hagrid picked up the barrel and continued to dig out the wood chips little by little. "He is too small. It is difficult to live in the giant tribe. He can only live in the Forbidden Forest." The possibility of survival..."

Hagrid had tears in his eyes, "He is my brother, I can't leave him alone."

“Your brother?” Kyle said, not expecting Hagrid to tell him this suddenly.

"Actually, he is his half-brother. He is a pure-blooded giant..." Hagrid wiped his face with his sleeve, "Speaking of which, I still want to thank you."

"Thank you for what?" Kyle thought for a moment. He didn't seem to have done anything to help Hagrid recently.

"Yes, last time we were at the Three Broomsticks, I heard Professor McGonagall say that it was you who managed to drive Umbridge away." Hagrid said with a bit of joy in his tone.

“Honestly, when that annoying guy was at school, I felt like I could be fired at any moment, and she had hinted at me many times.

"I can't imagine, if I leave school, who will take care of Grawp? He is just a child of only sixteen feet, weak and helpless. What will he do in the Forbidden Forest?"

Kyle frowned, trying hard to accept the novel combination of 'sixteen feet' and 'weak and helpless'.

But Hagrid did not notice Kyle's strangeness and continued: "I have thought before about entrusting him to you to take care of..."

"I have no problem." Kyle almost blurted out: "I happen to have nothing to do recently, so I am happy to help."

"Oh, there's no need for it now." Hagrid waved his hand, "That's why I said thank you. Now that Umbridge has left the school, I won't be expelled and can continue to take care of Hagrid. Lopp.

"And I don't want to trouble you too much...I know you have an exam soon."

"Believe me, Hagrid, I won't find it troublesome at all." Kyle said sincerely: "You don't need to be polite to me."

He had never seen a giant before, not even in Newt's box, so this was a rare opportunity.

"I understand your good intentions, but...it doesn't work." Hagrid thought for a moment and shook his head. "He doesn't know how strong he is. He may hurt you. I can't let you take the risk."

As he spoke, Hagrid turned his head slightly and glanced at a rope placed next to the wooden house. Kyle also looked over. The rope was as thick as a wrist. It was similar to the rope used to transport fire dragons in the Fire Dragon Sanctuary. However, it was broken in the middle, and the break was uneven, as if it had been pulled forcefully. Broken.

"As you can see." Hagrid explained: "In order to prevent Grawp from running around in the Forbidden Forest and getting into dangerous places, I have to tie him up, but this rope is obviously not strong enough. , so I changed to a thicker one.

"Now you understand how terrifying the power of a pure-blooded giant is. Maybe he can break a few of your bones with just a light touch."

Kyle actually didn't care about Hagrid's worries. As a wizard who always had access to all kinds of dangerous magical creatures, it was not easy for giants to touch him.

But Hagrid didn't seem to think so, and he was still unwilling to take Kyle to see Grawp.

There was nothing Kyle could do about it. The Forbidden Forest was so big that no one could find Grawp without Hagrid leading the way, even if he was an eye-catching giant.

Although he was a bit wicked, Kyle couldn't help but think that if he had known that he would have delayed giving Fudge advice a few days later, maybe in a few days, Hagrid would not be able to help telling him the place.

But it's useless to say this now. Hagrid is still very firm in his attitude towards certain things... By noon, Kyle returned to the castle with some disappointment.

As the holidays pass day by day, the weather becomes clearer and sunny, and the warm wind blows on the body, making people drowsy, but most people cannot sleep. They must force themselves to stay in the house to do homework and review their homework. Go to the library again and again.

 In this case, even if the dementors come, they will probably have to go back hungry.

 It was not until the holiday was almost over that there was finally something different in the castle.

There are a lot of pamphlets, leaflets and notices about various wizarding professions on the table in the Hufflepuff common room, and there is also an additional notice on the bulletin board...

"Career Guidance?"

Kyle looked at Professor McGonagall in front of him and asked, "What does this mean?"

"It's very simple. It's just to provide some advice to the fifth grade students and tell them what jobs are suitable for them." Professor McGonagall handed a booklet to Kyle. "When they reach the sixth grade, they can make targeted decisions according to their own intentions." Course selection.”

"Wait a minute..." Kyle held the booklet, "But why didn't I have this when I was in fifth grade?"

"Because, including the principal, we all agree that you need to participate in this..." Professor McGonagall said without raising her head: "Of course, if you insist, it is not too late."

 “Okay, no need.” Kyle said, “Then why did you call me here, professor?”

“Of course I'm here to help.” Professor McGonagall arranged the books on the table. “Every year, many students want to work in the Ministry of Magic, and as the Senior Assistant to the Minister of Magic, you have the responsibility to provide them with some advice.

 “Didn't you also apply for help a few days ago?”

"When did I say I would help..." Kyle paused suddenly, looking at Professor McGonagall's half-smiling eyes, he wisely closed his mouth.

Yes, in order not to do homework a few days ago, he did give himself an excuse to practice in the name of the Ministry of Magic.

 No wonder Professor McGonagall signed it so readily. This is the reason for the co-authorship.

 “Okay, when,” Kyle said.

 “Now,” said Professor McGonagall.

"So soon?" Kyle said, "Don't we need to let them think about what they want to do first? The announcement was just posted in the morning, and many people may not have read the brochures yet."

"It doesn't matter, the time is staggered." Professor McGonagall said, "Most people's guidance will be after the holidays, but some people want to ask about things they are interested in sooner..."

As soon as Professor McGonagall finished speaking, someone knocked on the office door.

The visitor was a fifth-year Gryffindor girl. Kyle thought she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember her name.

She was very clear that she wanted to join the Ministry of Magic, but she was wavering between the Department of Accidents and Disasters and the Department of International Magical Cooperation.

"I suggest you choose the Department of International Magical Cooperation." Professor McGonagall said, "Your grades are very comprehensive, and there are no obvious shortcomings... In addition, you can speak French, right? This just meets the requirements of the Department of International Magical Cooperation."

"Yes..." the witch nodded and said hesitantly, "but I think the Disaster Department is more challenging, and you will definitely not feel bored working there."

 Well, a standard Gryffindor.

 Professor McGonagall did not answer immediately, but glanced at Kyle.

"Actually, the International Magical Cooperation Department is not boring." Kyle said, "Of course, if you really want to study the Disaster Department, you must obtain the two N.E.W.T. certificates of Charms and Transfiguration, and the scores must not be lower than "Good" is a hard and fast rule.

“So I suggest you continue studying these two courses in sixth grade.”

The girl nodded excitedly, thanked her and left.

 A few minutes later, another person walked in.

 He hesitated whether to go to St. Mungo's or the Wizard's Bank.

This has nothing to do with Kyle. While Professor McGonagall was talking, he opened the book in his hand and read it.

 To be honest, this was the first time Kyle knew that there were so many different professions in the magic world.

Gringotts Cursebreaker, there is an exciting opportunity to work abroad, requiring proficiency in Transfiguration, Charms, and Arithmancy.

 Gringotts Healer… Potions, Herbs, Transfiguration, Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts…

 Muggle Liaison Officer... There are no special requirements for this, just a Muggle Studies Certificate.

 In addition, there are some more interesting ones.

 Fungi cultivation industry

owl keeper

 Broomstick tester

Poison Appraiser

Training Troll Security Guards

 There are all kinds of professions, and Kyle even found a brochure for the Fire Dragon Sanctuary.

There are more than a dozen lifelike fire dragons and a wizard riding a broomstick painted on it.

"Do you want to find a challenging job? Do you want to touch and conquer the most powerful creatures, soar in the sky with them, and experience different scenery? If you think you are strong, then come and join Let's…”

I have to say that this brochure is indeed very attractive, and Kyle wonders if Charlie decided to go to Romania after reading this.
