Professor Trelawney's prediction, like a depth bomb, made Hogwarts boil.
Most of the students were surprised that the old liar predicted that he would be fired from Toad. Many people thought it was Professor Trelawney's trick, but any student who had taken a divination class would know that Professor Trelawney was just that. A liar, maybe planning to use this to fool Umbridge, lest he really get fired.
What exactly is going on here?
Does Professor Trelawney know any divination or prophecy?
No one knows about it, but people are interested in the results of Professor Trelawney's divination to Umbridge.
In Professor Trelawney's first prediction, Umbridge would drive out Dumbledore and become the new headmaster of Hogwarts.
This prophecy is not good news for the teachers and students of the whole school.
Anyone who is willing to think a little bit can guess that Umbridge's motives for coming to Hogwarts are impure.
Who would want to leave the Deputy Minister of Magic behind, come to teach at Hogwarts, and choose the most dangerous Defence Against the Dark Arts professor to serve as a professor, is it because he thinks he is too good?
In the second prophecy, Umbridge will get into big trouble in the Forbidden Forest and be scolded by a group of long-legged men.
This one's a bit confusing, but the third prediction is that Umbridge will eventually be kicked out of Hogwarts, which isn't too surprising since Defence Against the Dark Arts professors usually have a hard time at Hogwarts Ci served for more than a year.
The most surprising is the fourth prophecy, will Umbridge die in Azkaban?
It looked like Professor Trelawney was deliberately mad at Umbridge.
But Professor Trelawney claimed it was the result of divination.
In order to explore the "truth" of the whole thing, the students who were extremely curious turned to the "prophecy expert" Albert for help.
"Professor Trelawney does have some prophetic abilities, but her abilities are not very strong."
"As for whether Professor Trelawney's prediction to Umbridge will come true, I don't think it will be long before everyone can witness the results."
Some people suspect that Albert and Trelawney have colluded and touted each other for a long time; some even want to encourage Albert to make a prophecy for Umbridge to prove that he can really predict the future, but Albert thinks these ridiculous The "exciting generals" were ignored.
Why does he have to prove it to others?
However, Umbridge was **** off by Professor Trelawney's prophecy. Many people could clearly hear cursing sounds of smashing things when they quietly passed by the corridor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
The Weasley Brothers' retractable ears are so popular that curious students can even use them to hear exactly what the toad is scolding.
Everyone was guessing when Umbridge would drive Professor Trelawney away.
However, they are doomed to fail, and Umbridge doesn't seem to have any plans to fire Professor Trelawney for the time being, at least not yet.
Umbridge is thought to be worried that Professor Trelawney's predictions will come true, as even Albert admits Professor Trelawney has "prophetic" powers.
What actually happened, I am afraid only Umbridge knows.
When the divination incident was abuzz in the school, Umbridge once again had someone handed a note to Albert, inviting him to drink tea in the Defense Against the Dark Arts office. Umbridge did intend to ask Albert. Professor Trelawney's divination.
During her tenure at Hogwarts, Umbridge was not without gain. She collected a lot of information through Slytherin students, and suspected that Anderson was the master of prophecy in the mouth of Professor Trelawney.
More than a month ago, when Harry Potter was on trial, he also mentioned that a famous prophecy master had done divination for him. Umbridge felt that it was probably the guy in front of him, and the one about Fudge would step down next summer. The prophecy may also be spread by this guy.
Especially after the damned Mudblood in front of him offered an expensive divination fee of a thousand Galleons, Umbridge's mood fell to the bottom all of a sudden.
Can he really predict the future?
Is Fudge really going to step down next year?
"Mr. Anderson, may I think you're trying to blackmail a professor?"
Umbridge had a disgusting smirk on her face, and she was determined to find out no matter what, whether the guy in front of her had the ability to predict the future.
Umbridge wouldn't believe it if it was anyone else, but this Mudblood named Albert Anderson has done too many miracles.
Another miracle is not unacceptable.
"Extortion, I think you made a mistake." Albert raised his head and looked at Umbridge with a strange expression.
"Did I make a mistake?" After Umbridge met Albert's gaze, the smile on his face suddenly froze, and he quickly looked away, not daring to look at Albert.
"If you ask me for a divination now, that's a business. The essence of the business is to pay with one hand and deliver it with the other." Albert drank the milk tea in the cup and said in a cold tone, "If you want me to do divination for you, The reward that should be paid to me cannot be less than a cent, and no one can make an exception!”
"No one can make an exception?" Umbridge was still smirking.
"No one can make an exception." Albert didn't care about Umbridge's malice, got up and said, "If you don't want to pay, I naturally won't help you predict."
Without giving the other party a chance to attack, Albert already took out his wand from his robe pocket, and under Umbridge's stunned expression, he waved at her, causing Umbridge to forget most of his memories.
"Then I'll go first, I wish you a good afternoon."
Albert put his wand back in his pocket, nodded at Umbridge with a smile, and turned to leave the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, leaving Umbridge with a stunned face.
When Umbridge recovered, she had forgotten what she wanted Albert to divination for her, and only Albert's evaluation of Professor Trelawney remained in his mind.
Professor Trelawney does know the prophecies, and they succeed, so those prophecies are likely to come true?
"No, it can't be, it can't be true! That guy is a liar, everyone says she's a liar, she's a liar!"
Umbridge kept saying similar things to himself before he suppressed the fear.
Yes, Professor Trelawney is a liar, her predictions are just bluffing tricks, and Umbridge never sees his future in the crystal ball.
However, Umbridge didn't know that there were other people who could help predict such a slapstick operation.
Albert had just left the Defense Against the Dark Arts office when he saw Fred, George and Lee Jordan furtively.
"What is the toad doing for you?" Fred put his wand back in his pocket and asked with a smile, "We were just discussing whether we should go in and help you."
The three of them all had wands in their hands, as if they were ready to rush into the office at any time to help Albert subdue Umbridge.
"What about the result of the consultation?" Albert asked with a smile. He knew very well that the three of them were pretending to be funny on purpose. They never worried that Albert would get into trouble with Umbridge, and it was Umbridge who should really be worried.
"George said you would definitely not suffer."
"Toad wants me to divination for her, but she doesn't want to spend money..."
"How much are you going to knock her on?" Li Jordan asked curiously, but he knew that asking Albert for divination would hurt his wallet.
"Not much, a thousand Galleons." Albert said flatly.
"If I were a toad, I wouldn't want to give money." The three of them were speechless.
They feel that they are not the same as Albert's unit of measurement.
"Relating to my future, a thousand Galleons are not expensive. That guy doesn't want to pay, he still wants to use the identity of the Ministry of Magic and senior investigator to press me," Albert said helplessly, spreading his hands: "So... "
"So you taught her a hard lesson," Fred said excitedly.
"How is it possible, I'm not that violent, I just let her forget part of her memory."
"I thought you would be very angry." Lee Jordan is also a guy who is not too big of a deal
"Why should I be so angry?" Albert asked, "Would you be angry with a squealing toad?"
The three of them felt that this was reasonable, but they were a little regretful that they could not see Albert give Umbridge a hard lesson.
Albert did not intend to have any conflict with Umbridge, anyway, if necessary, it is enough to let the other party forget part of the memory.
As for how Umbridge feels, who really cares?
This solution was learned from Ministry employees while watching the Quidditch World Cup last year.
They do it themselves, of course there is no problem.
On the contrary, it was Umbridge's actions that made him feel that the other party was stupid.
Are you used to dominating the Ministry of Magic?
Or was it because the pressure was so tight recently that Umbridge lost his normal rational judgment and did a series of stupid things?
"Is Professor Trelawney's prediction true?"
The three were more curious about this, they knew that it was actually the prophecy given by Albert.
"it is true."
"Umbridge really ends up dying in Azkaban?"
"right."
"This is really exciting news."
"However, although such a prediction result is obtained, the future may actually change. The prediction involves too many cause and effect, and no one can determine what the future will look like."
"Can not understand!"
"I didn't expect you to understand!" Albert sighed, "The future can be changed, but it's really hard to change the future."
Albert did try, and it turned out Peter Pettigrew died prematurely.
To this end, he also personally went off to create opportunities for Sirius.
As soon as several people returned to the common room, Shanna immediately came over and told Albert about the Defense Association.
"Recently, everyone has been secretly spreading rumors that someone intends to re-form the Defense Association to teach everyone about the defense against the dark arts." Shanna lowered her voice and said, "Everyone thought it was you."
"I'm busy and I'm not free." Albert probably guessed what was going on.
"Not you?" Shanna looked at Fred and George. "You must know who it is, right? Angelina said Fred told her."
"Ahem, it's Harry, and Harry's defense against the dark arts is not low." George cleared his throat and explained, under Shanna's gaze, "I think Hermione is right, you can't let the toad Our defense against the dark arts is ruined, we have to teach ourselves to protect ourselves, if you are interested, you can go and see."
"Aren't Albert going?" Shanna looked at Albert, who shook his head and said, "I don't have time, and if I go, the nature may be different."
"What's different."
"They'll definitely let me take everyone out of Umbridge."
"Isn't that bad?" Angelina asked.
"It's not bad, but it's meaningless. Even if Umbridge is driven out, the Ministry of Magic will send other people over to serve." Albert said meaningfully, "and, I think Umbridge is actually It's fun."
This is really true, Umbridge has been at Hogwarts for less than a month, and it has indeed brought a lot of joy and laughter to everyone.
"How's Harry Potter's Defense Against the Dark Arts?" Shanna asked George, turning her head. "We can really learn something."
"Everyone communicates with each other and learns from each other." George shrugged and said, "What we learned is the "Guide to Self-Defense" compiled by Albert."
"Oh, that book came out?" Shanna knew about it.
"It hasn't been published yet, don't look at me, I don't have it here either." Fred shrugged and said, "It is said that Granger has a copy, but I haven't seen the real thing."
"At what time?" Shanna hesitated for a moment, but decided to go over and see. Her level of defense against the dark arts is not high. If you want to get good grades in the test, you have to put more effort into it.
As for whether Harry is a liar or not, as long as he has a little brain, he won't worry about this kind of thing.
…
After nightfall, the lights were still on in the headmaster's office, and Dumbledore looked at the memory of the Pensieve on the table and fell into a brief contemplation.
Dumbledore naturally also paid attention to the latest Trelawney divination incident at Hogwarts, which was causing a stir, especially when it was mentioned in the divination that he would temporarily lose the position of headmaster, which reminded Dumbledore of a certain dialogue. :
I see that you lost your position as headmaster.
Just then, there was a knock on the door of the principal's office.
"Come in, Minerva, what's the matter?" Dumbledore looked at Professor McGonagall who appeared outside the door with some surprise.
"I remember something about the recent prophecy."
Professor McGonagall glanced at the Pensieve on the table, put the wand directly on the temple, and pulled out a memory.
The two of them turned their attention to the Pensieve, which contained a conversation between Professor McGonagall and Albert:
...By the way, the next headmaster of Hogwarts is Professor Snape, if a certain pink toad doesn't count.
"This is the employment consultation from the previous year." Professor McGonagall said to Dumbledore. "To be honest, most of his predictions have come true. The pink toad here should refer to Umbridge. She was turned into a while ago. Toad."
In the past, Professor McGonagall didn't really care about these things, nor was he interested in divination.
However, Voldemort was resurrected, many of Albert's prophecies were fulfilled, and she had to start looking at these things.
"Actually, Mr. Anderson told me before that I would temporarily lose the position of Headmaster." Dumbledore was calm, as if it were a trivial matter, "What to drink."
"Why can you still say this so calmly? If Umbridge becomes the headmaster, God knows what the whole school will look like." Professor McGonagall was a little excited.
"The prophecy of Trelawney is not quite her style." Dumbledore smiled and handed a cup of hot cocoa to Professor McGonagall. "That should be the prophecy made by Anderson. , crystal ball divination has always been Anderson's forte."
"So, is Sybil's prophecy true?" Professor McGonagall's face suddenly turned ugly, as if thinking of something bad.
"Mr. Anderson is not a liar. For him, the truth is sometimes crueler." Dumbledore took a sip of hot cocoa and stared at the changes in the Pensieve.
"Under what circumstances do you think Severus will become the Headmaster." Professor McGonagall asked in a low voice.
Dumbledore was silent.
what's the situation?
"When Voldemort took control of Hogwarts," said Dumbledore calmly.
Both knew exactly what that meant.
If Dumbledore was still alive, obviously this would not have been allowed to happen.
That's why Professor McGonagall came to Dumbledore in a hurry, because when she was chatting with Professor Flitwick tonight about Sybil's prophecy, she recalled Albert's divination.
"It's not that bad," Dumbledore reassured.
In fact, a long time ago, Dumbledore deduced from Albert's few words that he might die soon.
To be honest, Dumbledore wasn't too worried about these issues, because in Albert's prophecy, Harry defeated Voldemort, and that was enough.
When faced with death, Dumbledore was not afraid. For him, death was just a brand new adventure, but before he set off, he needed to do everything he had to do.
