"Combat class will be a compulsory course for all Hogwarts students in the future, but as an excellent Aura, Miss Krivat has other work to do … so I have assigned some teaching assistants for this important course." Allen pointed to the Umbrella Team. "They are all wizards with rich combat experience and professional training. They will share the teaching duties of the students of the seven grades."
Wolf Mother stood up with her team members. Except for Long Eyes, who needed to protect Prime Minister Muggle, everyone else was present.
"These teaching assistants have their own specialties. In addition to basic combat training, they will also teach you some … unique skills." Allen pointed at the Umbrella Team slowly moving. "This is Ramona Roselle. She is the leader of a combat team and has a lot of experience in group combat. She will teach you the art of command. Otto Skorzeny, I think the Weasley twins will regret not meeting him in school. He will teach you how to use magic combat tools more effectively. Fritz Barca will teach physical training. Finally, this is Michele Wasserstein. Heinz Waffen, she will teach you how to perform magical first aid in battle. In addition, she will also work as a school doctor to lessen Madame Pomfrey's burden. However, I don't recommend that the male sorcerers intentionally injure themselves because of her looks. Otherwise, her style will leave a deeper impression on you than Madame Pomfrey.
"So many teaching assistants for the combat class … They will take up a large proportion of this semester's curriculum. Is Principal Harris trying to train us all into armed Aura?!" Ernie McMillan guessed in surprise.
"No … It doesn't look like an Aura. It's not the secret police … It kind of makes me feel like I've entered a military school in Muggle's world." Justin Fenlie stroked his chin. "Is he trying to make us soldiers?"
Professor Mag pursed her lips as she sat in the teacher's seat. She was very concerned when she heard about the massive amount of combat-related teaching materials. This was exactly why Dumbledore wanted her to stay at the school.
"Then, it's too late now …" Allen pressed his hands down. Noticing his movement, the auditorium returned to silence. "Although there are still some other important matters … I'll inform everyone when I'm done with the preparations … Headmaster … Oh, wait a minute. Oh yeah, three weeks later, each grade will elect a new headmaster based on the results of the theory class and the combat class. Now, class leaders, please lead your students to the dorms to rest. "
The next day, Hogwarts officially started school.
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The morning sun shone on the new training ground for the practical class, which was located right next to the Quidditch stadium. The new training ground looked like a professional gladiator arena compared to the previous one, which could be casually stacked with Transfiguration.
This was a newly built, irregularly shaped arena. The center of the arena was the arena area. The obstacles used in the ancient magic classes were also set up here. Apart from the expansion of the arena, there were not many changes to the arena itself.
The biggest change was the layers of stands surrounding the arena. There were also large canopies suspended from the spectator seats. These canopies were controlled like sails by the adepts standing on the uppermost colonnade.
These canopies were not only used to block out the sun, but also to control the weather and temperature within the arena. This allowed the adepts to practice and adapt to different weather and temperature conditions during duels and competitions. The color of the canopies could also be controlled and changed. Different words could even be slid and displayed on them.
The colossal building was a three-story structure. The exterior was made of huge heavy stone, iron, and alloy engraved with dense runes. Even if a wizard used a powerful destructive spell in the arena, the arena would not be damaged. There were seventy-seven round arches on the top floor, which were arranged according to the standard order of Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. The lower two floors were decorated with small windows and pilasters.
This somewhat exaggerated setting made the little wizards present gasp. They began to guess that Hogwarts wanted to make this kind of duel a regular event, like the Duel Tournament and Quidditch.
"The schedule of this kind of practical class is more complicated than other classes. Most of the time, it is divided according to grade. Although there are times when classes are held together, it is more often than not arranged to mix with other grades, regardless of the wizard's age. My mother said that considering the actual combat situation, you can't always expect to meet opponents of the same age and starting line." Laura saw that Gabrielle was nervous and fearful when she saw so many senior wizards in the arena. She very sensibly slowed down her speech and explained to Hibiscus Chinensis's younger sister.
Although Laura's father was French, her Wolf Mother's teaching made her more fluent in English than Gabrielle, who was also from Hogwarts. Her voice was a little hoarse, and her personality was more independent and strict. When she received the schedule, she inquired about the situation.
"But Laura … In Hogwarts, we don't have this kind of class … And fighting is strictly prohibited in the school." Gabrielle's long eyelashes trembled, and her voice revealed a bit of nervousness. "I've never fought before …"
"Don't worry, Gabrielle. Hogwarts has a Harris class that organizes students to practice all kinds of magic after class. You can join them. Soon, your strength will improve." Emily patted Gabrielle's arm and said, "If we're going to fight today, you'll be in the same group as us. We'll protect you."
"Roar!!!"
The roar from the arena caused countless screams and shouts, as well as the sound of people sucking in cold breaths.
In the eyes of the crowd, two gigantic Fire Dragons flew across the arena. Their shadows were reflected on the ground of the arena, forming a huge shadow that shrouded the crowd.
"I know there are Fire Dragons in Hogwarts, but they are free and unrestrained!" Gabrielle's face was a little pale. She clutched the front of her clothes tightly. "Heavens, that red one is chasing after the one in front …"
"Norbeta was beaten up by Lessie again … Don't worry, the one being beaten up is Hagrid's Fire Dragon. It and the other Fire Dragons have restraints on their heads, so they can be controlled very well. That's why they are free to fly. They won't hurt anyone." Emily held Gabrielle's cold hands. She said with uncertainty, "Be careful of the red one, the black one, and the Hungarian Wasp … That one is controlled by Luna. I think you know what I mean …"
The two Fire Dragons circled in the sky. Lessie, who was more agile, was chasing after Norbeta. She stretched her neck and looked like she was about to spit out a scorching dragon's breath to teach Norbeta a lesson.
"Lessie, Norbeta, stop! Good girl, listen to me! "
The loud roar of the motorcycle resounded through the sky. Hagrid was riding on Sirius' motorcycle, chasing after the two Fire Dragons. The wind at the high altitude blew his beard and hair into a mess. He shouted in a shrill voice, "Lessie, Norbeta, stop! Stop it! Stop fighting! "
This farce continued because another louder engine sound was heard. The wizards were attracted by the sound, which was getting louder and louder.
Penello was riding on the Vespa motorcycle that Allen had given her. Her magic robe was rustling in the wind. She flew down from the sky on the flying motorcycle and stopped in the arena with a beautiful drift.
Penello took off the motorcycle helmet on her head and flicked her short black hair. She stretched out her long legs and stepped down from the motorcycle. She stood the motorcycle upright and hung her helmet on the motorcycle's handlebar. She looked around at the wizards around her and her voice spread throughout the entire arena, "Very well. Since Alan trusts me to be your practical class teacher … I'll do my best to teach all of you … As for the content of the first lesson …" She paused for a moment and smiled evilly, "All of you come up and fight me together. Take out your suppressive wands. Don't think about some ridiculous classmate friendship. Show me all of your strength and let me open my eyes …"
Hearing this, the young wizards thought of the horrible rumors about this new professor and some of them screamed. This situation was worse than what they had expected. A few of the first-year Ravenclaw wizards had never seen such a situation. They could not help but cry.
Hermione, who was standing on the Hogwarts' side, frowned. She could not help but remind Penello, "Penello, the first-year students haven't learned magic yet … They …"
"Miss Granger, it's class time now. Call me Professor Krivat …" Penello looked at Hermione sternly. "Then please tell me, chairwoman of the student union. According to the new rules of the Hogwarts this year, students who speak without permission will be punished."
