The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 555 The Story of Gilderoy Lockhart ([-])
"Finally gone."

Looking at Albert's leaving back, Lockhart couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This genius wizard who claimed to surpass Dumbledore in the future really lived up to his reputation.

After Lockhart came to Hogwarts to work, he instinctively wanted to stay away from this genius wizard, but unfortunately he has not been able to do so.

The other party would always ask him appropriate questions. If Lockhart hadn't prepared well enough when he wrote the book, he might have revealed his flaws.

If you can't even explain what you have done, the adventures you have experienced, and the spells you have used, who will believe it?
Unfortunately, Lockhart himself knew he was a liar, so he hated dealing with a genius like Albert Anderson.

God knows what questions the other party will find to embarrass Lockhart someday.

Moreover, he is very likely...not very likely, but Albert must be doubting himself.

Although Lockhart didn't have any evidence, he just had an intuition that Mr. Anderson probably knew something and had already begun to doubt himself.

Lockhart couldn't help but wonder if it was the right choice for him to accept Dumbledore's invitation to serve at Hogwarts?
Although his book was bought a lot because of this and gained a wave of attention and fame, Lockhart always felt that his actions were a bit inappropriate, or... well, it should be said that Lockhart began to regret it.

He wants to quit now!
Lockhart knew about Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's bad reputation from the very beginning. After all, he stayed at Hogwarts for seven years. Anyone who wasn't an idiot would know about it.

Although Dumbledore assured him that as long as he resigned early, he could avoid the damage caused by the curse, when he first came to school, Lockhart encountered some worse things.

At the beginning, the purpose of coming to Hogwarts was to use Harry Potter's reputation of defeating Voldemort to improve his own reputation.

Lockhart wanted Harry Potter to be his favorite student, which was his main purpose for coming to Hogwarts.

When he met Harry at Lihen Bookstore, Lockhart even gave him a complete set of books, hoping to win some of Harry's favor towards him.

You must know that a large sum of Galleons will be needed to complete the complete set of books. However, the savior still doesn't have much affection for him.

Later, Potter and his friends drove a flying Ford car to school. In his opinion, it was nothing more than a show, so Lockhart helped Harry escape confinement, asked him to help him answer letters from admirers, and borrowed The machine teaches Harry something about fame and fortune.

However, the plan did not go well, and even Lockhart could sense that Harry Potter was trying to avoid him, which was not in line with his original plan.

Therefore, Lockhart changed his plan again. He got a lot of Quidditch tactics, and planned to teach Harry how to play Quidditch.

Unfortunately, Harry Potter refused again.

However, contrary to Harry Potter, another genius at Hogwarts had a good relationship with him, or the other genius approached him actively, but Lockhart had no intention of using Albert to improve his reputation at all. .

He felt that if he got too close to Albert, the other party might discover his secret.

Albert gave Lockhart a bad feeling, especially his eyes, which sometimes gave him the illusion of being seen through by the other party, just like Albert used in "Wandering with Werewolves" when he chatted with him just now When he recovered the human form spell, he could feel that there was no admiration in Albert's eyes, but more curiosity and expectation for this spell.

That genius is very interested in the restore human form spell!

If it was the past, teaching the other party the Restore Human Shape Curse would undoubtedly be an opportunity to draw in the relationship between the two parties, but it was a pity that Lockhart would not use this spell at all.

When he heard Albert asking himself, he almost couldn't answer. In the end, he could only send Albert away by saying that he needed to spend some time sorting out the professor's train of thought for him, but that genius seemed to have long been He saw through his thoughts and said that he would come to visit another day.

Compared with a silly boy like Harry Potter, someone like Albert Anderson was so terrible that even Lockhart wondered why he made it so difficult for himself.

Sure enough, Harry Potter is easier to get along with!

Although he didn't want to pay attention to Albert, the meaningful smile when the other party left made Lockhart feel very bad. He had to go back to his previous residence and look for something useful.

"Wandering with Werewolves" still left a deep memory on Lockhart.

No way, the old Armenian wizard is old and ugly, the clothes he wears are tasteless, and he likes to put photos on the cover, which makes him complain a lot.

At the beginning, Lockhart spent a lot of time investigating this matter, and even went to the village that suffered from the werewolf scourge, and cast an oblivion curse on the villagers living there, making those villagers and the old Armenian wizard completely forget about it. The incident was completely forgotten.

Naturally, Lockhart has some understanding of the Restore Human Form Curse, after all, it is the most core spell in "Wandering with Werewolves".It took him a lot of time to learn about the restoration of human form curse from the old wizard.

The restore human form spell is a spell invented by the opponent himself, but the opponent doesn't seem to realize the meaning of this spell.Lockhart had thought about relying on this spell to become famous, after all, the spell that can temporarily transform a werewolf in wolf form back into human form is of great significance.

So when Lockhart left, he not only erased the other party's memory, but also stole the records and research of the restoration spell.

If he could learn and publicize this spell, Lockhart knew exactly what kind of fame he would gain. It is a pity that the Restore Human Form Charm is an extremely complicated and difficult spell to cast. He finally failed to learn this spell as he wished. .

Lockhart was actually hesitant to hand over the notebook to Albert, or they could cooperate and use Albert to improve their reputation.

If you let Albert become your favorite student?
Lockhart quickly dismissed the idea, which was not a wise choice.

"Forget it, it's better for me to stay away from him." Lockhart opened his locker, and began to rummage through the boxes to find the notes hidden by him.

Half an hour later, Lockhart finally found the leather notebook in a certain box, and there were some parchments scattered in it. Lockhart looked through it carefully, and there was indeed nothing else that could not be given to Abel. After reading something, he took the book and returned to Hogwarts Castle.
