Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

Of course, everyone would not refuse, and they all made room for Tver to have a VIP viewing seat.

Not long after, a circle of curious little wizards gathered here.

On the other hand, Ron and Seamus, who were playing chess, became nervous, and their hands trembling when placing the chess pieces.

This was the first time they played chess under the watchful eye of a professor, especially since the professor rested his chin on his hand and looked at them with interest.

“Why don’t you start?” Tver glanced at the two of them, “Am I making you uncomfortable here?”

George slapped Ron on the shoulder, tilting his body.

“How is that possible? Professor, we wish you could stay here forever,” George looked at Ron again and said in a threatening tone, “You think so, Ron?”

Tver watched this with amusement, realizing the pressure his presence was putting on them.

“Well, I can prepare a small gift for you, and whoever wins can get it.”

Twil put the badge on the table and handed it between Ron and Seamus.

This is another version of the Iron Armor Curse badge that he has strengthened. The Iron Armor Curse inside can resist the attacks of ordinary wizards for at least ten minutes, and can even deflect the Death Curse to a certain extent.

Everyone’s attention was instantly attracted to the badge. Although the style on it was, well, very crude, they would not underestimate Professor Welfare’s gift.

Just based on appearance, they couldn’t tell the reason.

After glancing at the badges, Ron and Seamus suddenly became less nervous, their bodies even lit up with flames, and they looked at each other with fighting intent.

Even giving orders to the chess pieces smelled like gunpowder.

Wizard chess is actually chess, but the chess pieces can move. When the player gives orders, the chess pieces will execute them.

Of course, if the chess player is easy to bully, then the chess pieces will not behave obediently.

“That’s a trap. Are you so confused that you can’t see it?!”

“The queen is mighty! Please continue to charge forward, your most loyal servant will always be your backing!”

“Stop talking, my grandma can win with us.”

Jokes aside, the chess pieces would still obey the orders and act in the end, but Seamus was indeed not as strong as Ron, and he failed neatly after twenty minutes.

Tver gave the badge to Ron under the eyes of everyone who was either excited or disappointed.

“This badge has an iron armor spell engraved in it. It is a very powerful iron armor spell that can help the wearer resist many spells, including some fatal magics.”

Everyone was in an uproar immediately, and their eyes looking at the badge became hot.

Whether it was because of getting the badge or the first time he received so much attention, Ron’s face turned red, and his earlobes and neck were stained with red.

“Demonstrate it quickly, Ron!”

The Weasley twins couldn’t wait to come to Ron’s side, staring directly at the badge in his hand.

“Just a reminder, the badge doesn’t have much magic power. If you release it twice at most, the magic power inside will be consumed, turning it into an ordinary badge.”

Tver’s words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly dousing everyone’s enthusiasm.

“So, keep it well. Although I don’t want you to use it, it can save your life at a critical moment.”

After blinking at Ron, Tver strode out of the auditorium while everyone was still in a state of shock and loss.

The Gryffindor table had already become crowded because of his appearance. After the effect of the badge spread, even more young wizards gathered around.

Wait until next time, the place will be filled with free little wizards, and it will be difficult to leave by then.

A badge in exchange for a high-quality wizard chess match was a great value in Tver’s eyes.

Seamus’ level is not high, it can only be said to be average, but Ron is different.

Being able to solve the chess game laid out by Professor McGonagall has proven that he has superb strength.

And in order to obtain rewards more securely, he almost tried his best and coordinated various tactics exquisitely.

Anyway, Tver enjoyed watching it.

In a happy mood, he quietly came to the corridor on the fourth floor again. It was still the same as a week ago, without any change.

After passing the previous levels with familiarity, Tver came to the chessboard easily.

Because of the special nature of the chessboard, he has to replace one of the chess pieces before he can command Black.

Naturally replacing the king, Tver confidently gave orders to the chess pieces.

“Soldiers, advance to A6!”

“The knight eats the soldier on the other side!”

“Queen, return to E7!”

…

There was a crackle, and five minutes later, as expected, Tver——

Failed.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and he waved his wand wordlessly to block the throne that the queen had swung down, and then smashed it to pieces in a rage.

Failure was also expected by him, but the problem was that it failed unexpectedly quickly.

Seamus lasted twenty minutes under Ron’s hand, why could he only survive five minutes?

It seems that I still underestimated this chessboard.

While waiting for the chess pieces to recover, Tver observed the chessboard.

There is no doubt that this chessboard uses a lot of transfiguration techniques, very much like Professor McGonagall’s delicate spellcasting style.

Especially during the recovery process of the chess pieces, Tver could feel the control of his will.

The broken chess pieces are thrown outside the chessboard, but the source of magic power and will to control them are all on the chessboard.

To put it simply, the chessboard seems to be alive, controlling the actions of the chess pieces on it.

It is very similar to ordinary wizard chess, but more sophisticated. According to his understanding of the soul, this is already a combination of will, memory and magic.

To say that this was the handiwork of Professor McGonagall, Tweel was a little unbelievable, but if it was said to be Dumbledore, then he would understand.

Reminiscent of the old man’s willpower when he was chatting with him about transfiguration, it was really not difficult to achieve this level.

It seems that Dumbledore’s research on the soul may even be deeper than his!

Tver’s eyes couldn’t help but become solemn. The closer he got to the principal, the more profound he could feel his understanding of magic.

The teacher has fallen behind in some aspects because he has not had the conditions to study magic for many years.

But Dumbledore is different. He lives in Hogwarts and is active in the magical world. His accumulation of magic is unrivaled in the modern era.

This gave Tver a headache.

How can one steal the Magic Stone under the nose of such an old man?

Don’t take the Philosopher’s Stone then. When you come out, you will see that he is surrounded by Dumbledore.

After thinking about it, he couldn’t think of a reason, so Tver ignored it. There was Quirrell in front of him, and he was more anxious than himself.

After gathering his mood, Tver stood on the chessboard again and continued his wizard chess game.

You have to pass this level first, otherwise the magic stone will just be a delusion.
