Sometimes just a small accident can bring about huge changes.

Because Hermione did not help Neville find the toad as in the original book, she also did not get to know Harry Potter and Ron. Now for Hermione, she is the one who came to Hogwarts with her.

The missing girl worried her even more.

But since Professor McGonagall said it was okay, then it should be okay...and if Hermione remembered correctly, the girl also said she was "invited".

But it's still weird...

With doubts, Hermione walked into the dining hall. At this time, the dining hall was already full of students. Hermione also hurriedly put away her thoughts and began to think about the next issue of sorting.

Soon, Hermione and the other freshmen were driven to the podium in front of the restaurant by Professor McGonagall. At this moment, Neville suddenly came to Hermione and pulled her sleeves.

"Hey, look, isn't that the girl sitting over there?"

"Why?"

Hearing Neville's question, Hermione quickly retracted her thoughts and looked in the direction Neville indicated. Then her eyes widened in surprise - in front of the long table next to the rostrum, she saw a man with a long white dress.

The girl with hair and bright red eyes was sitting there. She was wearing a big three-cornered hat and a dark cloak. She was sitting quietly on the chair like a doll, motionless.

Huh? Huh?!

Fortunately, Hermione still remembered her current situation and didn't scream. But even so, she still widened her eyes in surprise and looked in the direction of the girl.

Yes, it looks like Ellie no matter how you look at it... But why is she sitting there? No matter how you look at it, it looks like a teacher's seat. Could it be that Ellie is also a teacher? How is it possible? She is just the same person as herself.

A child of the same age...

Hermione's mind was so confused that she didn't even hear Professor McGonagall call her name. It was only after Neville next to her pushed her that Hermione reacted, and then came to sit on the chair with a red face, and then

Wearing the Sorting Hat - and as expected, was assigned to Gryffindor.

The subsequent assignments were no different from the original work. Everyone was assigned to their respective colleges. It was only then that Dumbledore stood up. After saying a few meaningless nonsense, he changed the subject.

"Today, I have one more thing to inform everyone - Professor Quirrell, who was originally responsible for teaching the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, has resigned due to personal reasons. The person who took over his position as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is this... Love

Miss Li."

Following Dumbledore's introduction, Ellie stood up from her chair and nodded silently to everyone.

When they heard this, the students from the four colleges suddenly fell silent, and then the next moment they started to make noise like a flood.

Some people screamed, some shouted, and some whistled, and the scene was chaotic for a while. But Dumbledore just laughed, said something casually, and sat down. Then, the dinner party officially began.

The delicious food quickly attracted the attention of many students, but the petite figure on the podium became the topic of their attention.

"Is it really okay for the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to let a little girl like that do it?"

"How do you know she is really a little girl? Maybe she is a vampire or a succubus."

"By the way, I saw that girl sitting in a box with her before!"

I don't know who said this, and the Gryffindors immediately turned their attention to Hermione, who also looked confused.

"You are Miss Granger, are you an acquaintance of Miss Ellie?"

"Huh? No, no, no...!"

Hearing the question, Hermione waved her hand hurriedly.

"We didn't know each other before. I only saw her after we got in the car. And I didn't know who she was. I thought she was also a freshman..."

"Is she really not a vampire?"

"I saw her sunbathing... vampires shouldn't be able to bask in the sun, right?"

Bombarded by a series of questions, Hermione was so confused that after the dinner party, she didn't know how she went to the dormitory under the guidance of her prefects and lay down to sleep.

But whether Hermione believed it or not, that little girl seemed to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

In fact, from the moment she woke up the next morning, Hermione had been listening to the students next to her discuss that girl, even more so than Harry Potter - this was normal, after all, Harry Potter

Hermione herself has seen it several times in books and knows that there is such a number one character, so even if she sees him in person, it's just like "the character in the book finally appears in front of me."

But Ellie is different. This girl is extremely mysterious. No one knows who she is. But since Dumbledore thinks that she is qualified to be a teacher of Defense Against the Dark Arts, it means that this girl must be quite strong——But what is the truth?

How?

With this idea in mind, Hermione and other students ushered in their first Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Hermione, do you have any good suggestions? Weren't you in the same box as her before? You must know her character and so on."

"I don't know much about it either..."

Facing the questions from her classmates, Hermione was a little tired of it, but she still explained in detail.

"But she gives me the impression that she is very cold and introverted... In short, I advise you not to think about strange things. It may be very bad to make her angry."

"Haha? Could she cry?"

Hearing this, Ron Weasley couldn't help but interrupt.

"That would be interesting. If it makes the teacher cry, we will be in trouble..."

Although he tried to look serious, his funny eyes had obviously betrayed his thoughts, and Hermione just glared at him coldly without answering. She had had enough of Ron.

With his weird thoughts and actions, he was as intolerable as his two brothers... At least Hermione didn't like them at all.

"Squeak——"

Just as the students were talking about it, the door to the classroom opened, and then Ellie, dressed like a witch, walked in. She opened the door and her eyes slowly scanned the entire classroom. I don’t know why, but I felt

The moment Ellie looked at her, Hermione suddenly felt a cold feeling on her back - it was as if she was being stared at by some kind of terrifying beast. Other students seemed to have a similar feeling. Soon, the originally noisy classroom quickly changed.

Gotta calm down.

At the same time, Ai Li also withdrew her gaze.

"Start the roll call now."

Speaking in a crisp, indifferent and somewhat childish voice, Ai Li picked up the list of students and began to call the names.

This made Harry Potter somewhat uneasy. During the past few days at Hogwarts, he had discovered that people here seemed to have some kind of fanaticism about his name. Some teachers would scream and faint just by calling his name.

, there are also some teachers who will wake him up and introduce him to the whole class like a fanatical groupie - of course, there are also people like Snape who don't like him and want to punish him to death.

I wonder if this girl will be like other teachers...

Thinking of this, Harry felt somewhat nervous and uneasy.

But to his surprise, when the name "Harry Potter" was called, the girl didn't show any expression or even pause at all. It was as if she was reading an ordinary person's name and clicked directly.

It passed. This made Harry Potter somewhat relieved, but he also felt a little disappointed...

So people are hard to take care of.

"Okay, let's start class now."

Of course, Ellie wouldn't care about the mood of a little savior. After calling the name, she clapped her hands and said.

"I think you all know that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class is mainly a course that teaches you how to resist various black magic and dangerous creatures. But first, I have to explain one thing, that is..."

Speaking of which, Ellie's bright red eyes, emotionless and bright, looked at the students in front of her as if they were dead people.

"You have to remember one thing, that is... wizards are very weak."

"……………Why?"

Hearing Ai Li's words, the students present widened their eyes in surprise, but Ai Li completely ignored the students' wavering and continued to speak.

"Perhaps in your opinion, wizards can call upon the wind and rain and are very impressive. But in fact, wizards are a group of fragile and dangerous creatures. They always think that they have superior power. Unfortunately, even so, they still don't understand what humility is.

With pride, in fact, the power they control has no meaning - even an ordinary person can easily destroy them."

"Please forgive me for being rude, Teacher Aili."

Hearing this, a boy couldn't help but stood up and retorted.

"No matter what happens, we wizards can never lose to those Muggles."

"Yeah?"

Facing the boy's rebuttal, Ai Li glanced at him lightly.

"You are Draco Malfoy...well, I can understand your thinking. In that case, let's give it a try."

"Try... try?"

"That's right."

As she spoke, Ellie walked to the open space under the podium.

"As a member of the Malfoy family, you should already be able to use witchcraft, so let's do an experiment. I allow you to use witchcraft to attack me, and I will not use any witchcraft to defend or counterattack. As long as I can attack

How about you win if you hit me?"

"No problem at all."

Hearing this, Malfoy's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he walked to the podium in full view of everyone and stood not far from Ellie. Seeing this scene, Hermione couldn't help but clenched her hands and stared at Ellie uneasily.

Li. She didn't know what Ellie planned to do - she had already seen the mystery, terror and power of witchcraft. If she didn't use any spells, how would Ellie deal with Malfoy?

"Teacher Ai Li? Are you sure that any witchcraft can be used?"
