Levin could hear the subtext of Professor Flitwick, and he just wanted to ease the conflict between Levin and Dumbledore in this way.

For Levin, Professor Flitwick has always been one of his most respected professors in school.

The headmaster of Ravenclaw Academy is not only knowledgeable, but also courageous.

I think back then, he and Professor McGonagall were both "difficult students in the Sorting House", leaving the Sorting Hat to hesitate between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw.

Professor McGonagall waited for five and a half minutes in the confusion of the Sorting Hat, and was finally sorted into Gryffindor House. Professor Flitwick also experienced similar suffering. After the Sorting Hat asked him to debate whether he should go to the Lion House or the Eagle House, he finally made the opposite choice and sorted him into Ravenclaw College - if it weren't for the Sorting Hat's mistake, Their current long position may be changed.

On the other side, Umbridge heard them talking about the Defense Against the Dark Arts course she was in charge of and the curse of it. The expression on her face was distorted like a toad after swallowing a delicious and juicy but... The pain after being poisoned by a fly is "930".

A strong impulse suddenly arose deep in her heart, and she wanted to return to the Ministry of Magic immediately and ask Fudge to send someone else to replace the professorship of this course. However, she also knew that until she found the right candidate, she could only bite the bullet and persevere. So, she tried hard to suppress the panic in her heart and decided to devote all her energy to fulfilling her duties as the principal of Hogwarts.

"Forgive me, Professor Flitwick, I believe that everything I have done is for Hogwarts to get back on the right track and for the wizarding world of Yin to regain its vitality."

Levin quietly stared at Professor Flitwick with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes in front of him, and sighed secretly. He couldn't remember how many times the other party had been in such a mess for his own sake.

At this moment, Levin put down the arrogant attitude he always maintained when facing other people. He walked forward gently, helped Professor Flitwick arrange his clothes with his own hands, and then used a magic spell to comb his messy hair.

"We actually don't need to lift the curse placed on Defense Against the Dark Arts by the mysterious man.

Levin explained seriously, "As Professor Flitwick said, breaking the curse itself is much more difficult than casting it. But curses, like contracts, are a very 'precise' subject. Since the mysterious man is specialized in Regarding the curse under the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, we can choose to bypass it and find another way."

He paused and continued: "We can establish a new course, just like the one I am currently in charge of. In fact, whether it is Professor Flitwick's Charms class or the duel club established in the second grade , a large part of the content of these courses is more or less connected and repeated with the content of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course, but whether it is a Charms course or a Duel course, those who teach these two courses will not be cursed———— According to this principle, we only need to integrate the core content of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course into other courses

This curse can be circumvented cleverly. "

After listening to Levin's words, everyone's faces were full of confusion.

They had no idea that Voldemort's curse could be lifted in this way.

"Yes, it's such a simple way."

Levin smiled slightly and continued, "However, as the principal, Dumbledore did not choose to do this. On the contrary, for some unknown purpose, he seems to have been deliberately guiding you to make all of you deeply involved in Defense Against the Dark Arts. You are trapped in the myth of being cursed by a mysterious man, which makes you unconsciously give up the opportunity to think about other possibilities.

Hearing this, Professor McGonagall woke up from a dream.

As a professor at Hogwarts, she was sincerely happy that Caiwen could solve this difficult problem in Gerdetz's teaching.

However, when she heard Levin's accusations against Dumbledore, as a member of the Order of the Phoenix and Dumbledore's close friend, she couldn't help but want to defend Dumbledore.

"Levin, maybe you just misunderstood Albus.

Professor McGonagall said calmly, "You are a true Ravenclaw, with the ability to think outside the box. However, you cannot ask everyone to have this ability like you. Maybe Albus is just like us, he himself is trapped in I fell into that strange circle and couldn't extricate myself.

After Professor McGonagall said these words, he expected to see a trace of approval on Levin's expression.

However, to her disappointment, Levin's face showed more mockery.

Levin does not agree with Professor McGonagall's explanation, nor does he think that Dumbledore is really just trapped in a strange circle as she said.

He raised his head and recalled: "Professor McGonagall, to tell you the truth, when I was in the third grade, I was fortunate to have some transactions with Principal Dumbledore. He released a lot of books to me, so I was able to take a peek. The secret of the restricted area of ​​​​the Hogwarts library. The contents of the books there are not as dangerous as I imagined. Although some dark magic is indeed recorded in them, their degree of danger is not as exaggerated as imagined. More, there are some private potion formulas like "Powerful Potion", as well as some uncommon spells."

He paused and continued: "However, the books that can really systematically improve wizards' knowledge and improve their own realm are hidden deep in the principal's office by Principal Dumbledore. He does not seem to care about this knowledge, at least from now on. His behavior seems to be like this, and in my opinion, the fundamental reason why he did this is that he did not want other people to know this knowledge."

After hearing this, Professor McGonagall frowned and was obviously not moved by Levin's words.

She said in a deep voice: "Levin, you may not understand Albus's intentions. The reason why he did this is to protect the students. For students, a lot of knowledge is too profound and dangerous. Exposure to this knowledge prematurely will not only It will delay their normal studies, and may even put them in dangerous situations. You and Miss Luna Lovegood are good friends, and you must know the experience of her mother Pandora, who was once a member of our Hogwarts. A student, smart and passionate about magic experiments. However, it was precisely because she was too obsessed with these dangerous knowledge that she eventually made a big mistake while testing the soul-related spells and died unfortunately. Albus did not want this to happen again. happened, he just wanted to protect his students."

"Professor McGonagall, as the dean of the college, you actually used the misfortune of a student's mother or a deceased relative as an example. This approach seems a bit inappropriate."

After listening to Professor McGonagall's words, Levin's smile gradually disappeared. He raised his hand to stop McGonagall who wanted to apologize and Professor Flitwick who was trying to mediate the conflict.

"Now that we've talked about it, let's communicate openly and honestly."

Levin continued.

"Professor McGonagall, have you ever thought about the real purpose of setting up restricted book zones at Hogwarts and other institutions? Isn't it to protect and cultivate students? It allows ordinary students who lack ability and self-control to will be exposed to knowledge beyond their understanding, thereby avoiding harm. At the same time, it also provides a path for those students with extraordinary talents to explore more profound knowledge, so that they can continue to make progress without learning enough. resources and stagnated.

He paused, with a hint of excitement in his tone: "But Dumbledore's actions, in my opinion, are entirely out of his personal desire for control! Not only does he not want another Voldemort to appear, he also doesn't want anyone like him to appear. Powerful people who cannot be controlled! Just like Bill 3.6 and Percy of the Weasley family. They are both excellent students and have obtained 12 certificates, most of which are 'O' good grades. But the result? One of them became Although one of the curse breakers from Gringotts has entered the Ministry of Magic, we have all seen his performance on TV - although he can be called outstanding, he is completely in the category of ordinary people."

Speaking of this, Levin let out a malicious sneer: "I deeply suspect that Dumbledore's fundamental purpose is to ensure that these geniuses who should have stood out among the young wizards of the same period became vulnerable in front of him! He used His own status and influence have suppressed those talents who may grow into wizards who can compete with him, even if these people will not become villains like the mysterious man!"

Having said this, Levin suddenly took steps forward and hurriedly walked up to McGonagall. His eyes were burning, staring into her eyes closely.

Combined with the above, combined with the practices of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Professor McGonagall, do you still think that Principal Dumbledore's true purpose of doing these things is completely consistent with what you have imagined before?"
