The atmosphere in the room was extremely weird. It seemed that the angrier Elwyn and Harry were, the happier Umrich was.
"Mr. Mason, I've always wanted to talk to you. Let's be frank. We're both smart people. You should recognize the current situation …"
"Are you talking about the Hogwarts or the magic world?" Elwyn said. He did not expect Umrich to be so direct.
"It's actually the same thing. You should understand that the era of Dumbledore's confrontation with the unknowns has passed. People no longer need great wizards. Mr. Minister is worried about the long-term teaching situation of the Hogwarts." Umrich said, "I came here alone to help the Ministry of Magic change the situation and ensure that the school's education level can meet the standards. As the president of the Boy Student Union and the best student in the school, I hope to get your help. "
"I'm sorry, professor. My understanding of the current situation of the magic world is different from yours. I think the war and confrontation have just begun. In addition to the unknowns, there are greater evils coming. We should be prepared." Elwyn paused and continued, "And I don't think you can change anything. The Hogwarts will not be affected by you."
"My dear, do you think so?" Umrich said, grinning. She did not seem angry. "I'm not surprised at your refusal. For a long time, you've been greatly influenced by Dumbledore. Even an excellent little wizard like you is no exception. Your mind is full of fantasy. But you'll know soon and see the change soon. I hope that when the time comes, you will seriously consider my suggestion and make a choice that may affect your life. "
"I'll think about it carefully!" Elwyn said. Then he saw Harry began to write again.
The red handwriting appeared on the parchment. The back of his right hand was cut open and quickly disappeared.
A painful expression appeared on Harry's face. He tried hard not to cry out.
Looking at Elwyn and Umrich sitting at the tea table, he seemed to feel a little wronged. He wrote again, "I can't lie!"
He is in a very complicated mood now. His best friend Ivan and the toad-like woman are sitting aside drinking tea and chatting happily, watching him tear the back of his hand over and over again. Harry feels very uncomfortable when he thinks of this.
Along with this uncomfortable feeling, the anger in his chest grew stronger and stronger.
He felt like he had been betrayed. He would not admit defeat. He would not let them see his weak side … ….
"Professor, the black quill in Harry's hand …"
"Oh, I'm glad you noticed that quill. This is a punishment for disobedient students. Mr. Potter spread evil, despicable and sensational lies in front of many students in class today. He must learn to accept the reality."
"Isn't this punishment too heavy?" Elwyn said coldly, frowning at Umrich.
He had told himself to be calm and not to confront her directly, but now he could not control his anger.
Anyone would want to beat up Umrich when they saw this scene.
No matter how he looked at it, Elwyn could not stand by and watch Harry be punished in front of him.
What calmness? What plans? After seeing this scene, all of that was tossed aside.
"The professor of Hogwarts has the right to decide how to punish students. This does not violate any school rules." Umrich said with a smile, "I think a little pain is good for Mr. Potter."
"But …"
"That quill will not leave irreparable damage to the body. I know what you want to say, but it is not a black magic item. It was made with witchcraft from Africa, so it does not violate any current rules." Umrich said with a smile, "Alright, let's not worry about Mr. Potter. He can take care of himself. I didn't invite you here tonight to comment on my punishment method. Let's go back to the previous topic, your male student council president …"
"I'm sorry, Professor. I don't have the habit of watching my friend be abused like this." Elwyn said as he walked in front of Harry and snatched the quill from his hand. "Stop writing, Harry!"
"Elwyn!" Harry said in surprise, his voice filled with excitement.
At this moment, following Elwyn's action, all the anger and unhappiness from before disappeared.
"No, this won't do. Mr. Mason, I hope you know what you're doing?!" Umrich said as she stood up from the chair, maintaining a fake smile on her face. "You're stopping me from punishing Mr. Potter. I can understand your impulse, but I can't agree with it. I thought you'd be more rational. After all, you're a smart person …"
"I thought I'd be more rational too." Elwyn said, "But I overestimated myself. We'll talk to Dumbledore and Professor Meg about your punishment method for Harry. If possible, I'll also publish this matter on the 'Hogwarts Magic Newspaper' to let the outside world know what you've done in the Hogwarts."
"I'll talk to Professor Dumbledore and Professor Meg about this. You can also publish this matter on that made-up newspaper. But first, you have to understand that you're openly disobeying a professor's order." Umrich said as the smile on her face gradually disappeared. "Maybe you've done this kind of thing often in the past, but I have to remind you that if you don't want to be expelled from the school, let Mr. Potter sit down and continue to complete his punishment."
"Hmph, then let's see!" Elwyn said as he took out his wand. "Now, please step aside. We're going back!"
Maybe Ron was right. This woman should be cursed with a Soul Snatching Curse or some other evil curse.
If the professors wouldn't agree, Elwyn really wanted to do that.
He had to admit that it was too impulsive to take Harry away.
In the current situation, there was no chance of winning if he confronted Umrich head-on. Just as she had said, what she had done was not against the school's rules or any current laws. This was clearly a loophole in the law, but Umbridge had the right to do so. It was fine even if he told others about it.
