The entire three pages contained not a single question related to magic.
What is Gilderoy Lockhart's favorite color?
What is Gilderoy Lockhart's secret ambition?
What is Gilderoy Lockhart's greatest achievement to date?
"..."
Argus glanced at it only once before casually tossing it aside, not even bothering to give it a second glance.
He wouldn't bother with something that only wastes his time.
Let whoever wants to do it do it!
Draco and the others were also unwilling to pay attention, but they weren't as assertive as Argus.
He just jotted down a few lines to get by.
The witches in the front row were writing very seriously, racking their brains to get a high score.
Half an hour later, Lockhart collected the test papers one by one and looked through them in front of the class.
"Oh, look at you all, almost no one knows what I want most for my birthday."
"As I said in 'Gadding with Ghouls,' my ideal birthday present would be harmony between all magical and non-magical worlds, or a case of Ogden Fire Whisky."
"Some students need to read their textbooks more often."
As he was flipping through the papers, he suddenly came across a blank one.
His eyes immediately showed displeasure, and he scanned the crowd with an unfriendly expression.
"It seems our little classmate really needs to learn how to..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw the name at the top of the exam paper.
Argus Grindelwald!
The expression on his face froze instantly!
Although he was a fraud, he was very clear about the acolyte's strength.
Even if he were a fraud, and the book contained all his personal experiences, the acolyte could kill him with the flick of a finger!
Lockhart always kept his distance from people like this who were absolutely not to be trifled with.
He coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, and the words he was about to say were quickly changed.
"It seems our little classmate really needs to learn how to become an excellent wizard."
"Look at Mr. Grindelwald's exam paper; the answers are simply impeccable."
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have almost thought it was me answering the question."
"For Mr. Grindelwald's perfect score, Slytherin adds five, no, ten points!"
After saying that, he smiled at Argus and then stuffed his test paper into his robes.
He was afraid of it being seen by others.
The witches in the front rows looked on with admiration.
Especially after Lockhart gave them a flirty wink, they almost couldn't help but scream.
"Now, please pay attention."
Lockhart took out his wand and pointed it at the cage on the table, which was covered by a tablecloth.
His expression was extremely solemn.
It was as if he were dealing with some extremely dangerous creature.
"My duty is to teach everyone how to deal with the most terrifying monsters in the magical world."
As he spoke, he gently touched the cage.
The cage immediately began to shake violently.
"You will soon face your deepest fears in the classroom."
"But as long as I'm here, you will all be safe!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked in horror at the cage in front of Lockhart.
Draco swallowed hard.
"A terrifying monster? What is it? Could it be a Winged Demon?"
"It might be an Acromantula!"
"Ah! These are things that the Ministry of Magic explicitly forbids from being kept as pets! Wouldn't it be too dangerous to put something like this in the classroom?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Professor Lockhart is a renowned adventurer; dealing with something like this will be a piece of cake!"
"You're right, these things are far inferior to trolls and ghouls!"
A group of young wizards chattered amongst themselves, curiously examining the cage on the table.
Argus was almost sick of Lockhart's antics.
Several Cornish pixies, magical creatures of level XXX.
It was like they'd summoned several giant dragons!
Lockhart was pleased with everyone's expressions and reached for the cover above the cage.
"I urge everyone not to scream."
"This will...enrage them!"
With a loud shout, the cover was finally pulled off!
A large group of bizarre, humanoid creatures with dark blue skin appeared before everyone's eyes.
As soon as they saw light, they immediately let out a piercing scream.
They gripped the cage with both hands and shook it desperately!
The little witch in the front row, who had been cheering, now had eyes full of disappointment.
The male wizards in the back row burst into laughter.
"Cornish pixies? Hahahaha..."
"I thought it was some dangerous magical creature, but it turns out it's just this!"
Even Ron, who idolized Lockhart the most, couldn't help but show his disdain.
Lockhart's expression turned ugly.
He was clearly extremely dissatisfied with the contempt shown by everyone.
"A Cornish pixie who was just captured!"
"It's a very troublesome little devil."
Seemingly in retaliation for the earlier mockery, he coldly reached for the cage.
"Since you all think the Cornish pixies are too low-level, let me see how you deal with them!"
With that, he flung open the cage!
The Cornish pixies, long confined, were seething with anger.
How could they resist seeing the cage open?
Excitedly, they flew out of the cage and rushed towards the group of students in the classroom!
The classroom was in complete chaos, filled with students' screams.
Lockhart laughed triumphantly: "Everyone, hurry up and get to work!"
"They're just little pixies!"
He made it sound easy, but Cornish pixies were at least XXX level, so they might be easy for an adult wizard to deal with.
But those present were only second-year students!
They hadn't even mastered many spells, how could they possibly deal with this!
They were chased so hard they ran for their lives, constantly trying to crawl under the table!
"Peskipiksi Pesternomi!"
Lockhart sensed something was wrong and quickly waved his wand, trying to control the group of Cornish pixies.
Before he could finish the incantation, several Cornish pixies flew over and snatched his wand away.
Several Cornish pixies even ripped down the giant dragon bone model hanging in the classroom and hurled it heavily at the crowd!
"Finite Incantatem!"
Argus's expression darkened slightly.
He drew his wand and aimed it at the air!
"Ventos!"
What others would use to sweep away dust became a hurricane in Argus's hands!
Several tiny pixies flying in mid-air were torn apart and spun around.
A bloodcurdling scream erupted from their mouths!
The dragon bones that were supposed to fall on everyone were also swept away by the hurricane.
"Calm!"
"Everyone, gather around me!"
"It's Argus!" Parvati exclaimed in surprise.
She held the book over her head and ran quickly toward Argus.
The others also noticed that the little pixies around them were being controlled, and they all followed suit!
"Draco, Pansy! Get some men and secure the doors and windows. Don't let those Cornish pixies escape!"
"Slytherins, draw your wands and fight back!"
"Yes, Chief!"
After a brief moment of panic, the Slytherins gradually calmed down.
They pulled out their wands and fired clumsy spells into the sky.
The Gryffindors reacted quickly, and seeing that most of the Cornish pixies were under Argus's control, they immediately launched a counterattack.
A group of Cornish pixies, finding themselves unable to break through, paced frantically around in circles.
In the blink of an eye, Argus saw Gilderoy Lockhart not far away, his head buried deep under the teacher's desk.
His large, round buttocks were sticking up high.
He was afraid others wouldn't know he was hiding here!
The little pixies took out the magic wands they had just stolen.
They aimed at the center point and stabbed down hard!
The next second, Lockhart's scream echoed throughout the classroom!
"Ah!"
