Harry Potter: I'm an Exemplary Student

"The spell to deal with the Billywig is very simple, but it requires you to concentrate. When chanting the spell, you must concentrate on it, be clear about your goals, and you cannot be negligent at all."

"You know, the Billywig flies very fast, and it won't give you a second chance to recite the spell. "

After Professor Oren carefully explained what needed to be paid attention to, he continued. "Let's practice the spell without taking the wand first. Please recite with me - Descendo!"

"Descendo!" the little wizards shouted in unison.

"Very good." Professor Oren said with satisfaction. "The next step is to test the effect of your spell."

He asked the whole class to line up and step forward one after another to cast a spell on the Billywig in the cage.

And the first one in line is Kanna.

She was initially in the middle of the line but was quickly surrounded by Gryffindor.

Since Professor Oren called out the name, these little lions have wanted to see what is so special about Kanna that she can actually conquer Snape.

"Brave girl." Professor Oren smiled and said. "I remember your name is Kanna, right?"

"Yes, Professor."

Having experienced being the center of attention twice, Kanna's current condition is much better than before.

Although she was still very nervous, at least Kanna could communicate normally now, and the first thing she thought of was to answer the Professor's questions instead of turning around and running away.

"Don't be afraid, this is just a simple spell." Professor Oren said patiently. "Remember what I just said, focus on it, you can do it, believe in yourself."

Kanna took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and thrust out her wand.

"Descendo!"

"Whoa!" A sound that broke through the air flow came from the air.

Professor Oren, on the side, subconsciously took a small step back.

To be fair, if this force is close enough, it will kill the Billywig directly without needing a spell.

Fortunately, the results are still good.

As the spell ended, the Billywig in the cage fell to the ground.

"Yes, one point for Hufflepuff." Professor Oren said loudly while taking out the second cage.

Yesterday, because he was inexperienced, Professor Oren just brought three Billywigs over when he gave lessons to Ravenclaw and Slytherin Houses.

Initially, he thought it was enough, but it turned out to be completely insufficient. Sometimes, the third one fell down before the first one recovered.

And every time at this time, the young wizards from the two Houses would stare directly at him, and the scene would be extremely embarrassing.

In order to prevent a similar situation from happening again, Professor Oren brought ten of them here today, which is definitely enough.

"Next, Santos is your turn."

Santos, whose name was called, hurried forward and recited the spell.

"Descendo..."

Nothing happened. The Billywig in the cage was still spinning around happily.

"Relax, don't be so nervous." Professor Oren walked to him and said softly. "You must recite the spell clearly. Your last note was too soft. Let's try again."

Santos nodded and held out his wand again.

"Descendo!"

This time, it worked.

"Very good, next one..." Professor Oren changed to another cage.

The success of two people in a row also gave others a lot of confidence, and they couldn't wait to try it.

However, because of being too confident, some people completely forgot what Professor Oren said before. When it was their turn, they didn't even look at it and directly recited the spell loudly to the cage.

The result of this was that nothing happened to the Billywig, but the cage fell apart.

Therefore, Professor Oren had to work hard to ensure that he could restore those cages to their original state as soon as possible.

Soon, however, Professor Oren found that he was oversimplifying things.

A Gryffindor freshman at the back of the queue saw that there were too many people in front of him, so he began to whisper the spell there.

Initially, he just wanted to practice in advance and then wait for his turn to amaze everyone... But he forgot that he was holding the wand.

Beside the podium, Professor Oren, who was reciting the Mending Charm, suddenly felt his legs weaken and instantly collapsed to the ground.

If it were just a fall, it would be nothing. After all, Professor Oren was a strong adult wizard. At most, it would only be a scratch on the skin, which could be solved with a Potion.

But the problem is, his Mending Charm was interrupted.

A Billywig escaped from its trap and angrily charged at the little wizards before it.

It has wanted to do this for a long time. It has been made weak since yesterday, and now it must take revenge at any cost!

Faced with this situation, some of the little wizards began to run around the classroom in panic while others raised their wands.

"Descendo!"

"Descendo!"

…

More than a dozen spells passed by each other. Although they did not hit the Billywig, they successfully stopped it from moving forward...

Now, as if they had discovered a new world, the little wizards were even more excited. They raised their wands again, ready to hit the Billywig again.

"Stop it!" At this moment, Professor Oren, who was lying on the ground, suddenly shouted sharply.

He took out his wand and shouted loudly as the Billywig flew over his head.

"Descendo!"

Professor Oren reached out to catch the fallen Billywig, put it back into the cage, and stood up tremblingly.

He rubbed his waist in some pain.

No wonder others say that being the Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts is a tough job.

Enduring the pain, Professor Oren looked at the little wizard with concern and asked, "Are you all okay? Did you get stung?"

"No, professor." Everyone shook their heads.

"That's good." He breathed a sigh of relief, and after repairing the podium, he said, "Then let's continue the class. By the way... except for the first person in line, everyone else put away their wands."

Everyone did as he was told.

Although they were a little reluctant, they didn't dare to mess around after seeing Professor Oren's anger just now.

After all, no one wanted to let the spell fall on them.

With this mentality, almost everyone could succeed at once, and progress was much faster than before.

However, Professor Oren didn't seem to be relaxed at all. On the contrary, he was more nervous.

When the get out of class was over, he didn't even leave homework and left the classroom without looking back.

This class was so tiring for him that he didn't want to stay even a minute longer.

After returning to the office, Oren closed the curtains and drank a sip of black tea with satisfaction.

Anyway, it was finally over. Although there were some accidents, fortunately, they were all under control, and all ten Billywigs were... huh?

Wait, how come there are only nine left!?

Oren quickly threw down the teacup and counted carefully twice.

Yes, there was indeed one missing.

One cage was empty, and there was a fist-sized hole in it.

"Merlin's beard..." Oren hurried back to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom but found nothing there.

"It must be those freshmen's spells that hit the cages just now!"

Oren looked at the open window in the classroom and said in annoyance. "Fifty Galleons, just gone!"
