Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

After two years, Tver finally tasted his father’s cooking again.

Strange to say, my father, the patriarch of one of the 28 pure-blood families, actually opened a French restaurant in the Muggle world!

Fortunately, the Welfare family kept a low profile and rarely interacted with other wizards, so the news did not spread.

But even if the news spread, it would not have any impact on the family.

“Now that you have graduated, have you decided what you want to do?” Brinda asked suddenly.

“Why don’t you help me in my store? Or open a Chinese restaurant next door?” Mills suggested.

“I have applied for the teaching assistant position at Hogwarts.” Tver said carefully, avoiding telling the truth that he was applying for Defense Against the Dark Arts.

“Why do you suddenly want to go to Hogwarts?” Brinda was stunned and forgot to put down the fork in her hand. “It was Durmstrang that you asked to go to in the first place.”

“Durmstrang is still too extreme. I want to take this opportunity to learn more different magics.” This is what Tver thought about in advance.

Mills thought for a moment, but he had never heard of the position of teaching assistant in his memory. “That’s not bad, but teaching assistant? When did Hogwarts add this position?”

Mills and Brinda were both graduates of Hogwarts. Tver strongly requested not to go to Hogwarts, but this made them distressed for a long time.

“I applied specifically, otherwise Hogwarts wouldn’t let a newly graduated student teach the little wizard.”

In fact, Tweel suspected that Hogwarts wanted to share the curse of Defense Against the Dark Arts before agreeing to his application as a Durmstrang graduate.

“Hogwarts really needs one more teaching assistant, otherwise the professors will be exhausted.” Mills nodded with satisfaction at his son’s choice. “Which course is the teaching assistant for?”

It’s broken. Tver swallowed his saliva and spoke so fast that he couldn’t hear clearly, “Put the book in black.”

“What?!” Brinda stood up suddenly, and the chair fell to the ground with such a push. “I don’t allow you to touch the Defense Against the Dark Arts course!”

“No, you can hear this clearly?!” Tver’s jaw dropped in shock.

“Nonsense, I’m your mother. Being so vague must be a problematic lesson!” Brinda was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and her eyes were red.

“I will never allow you to touch this course. I have had seven Defense Against the Dark Arts professors in the seven years I have been at school. The worst one lost an arm!”

Mills quickly persuaded, “Tver knows more about the curse than we do. It must make sense to choose this course. We might as well listen to his reasons.”

If it were anyone else, let alone an explanation, Tver would not even be interested in prevaricating.

But in front of him were his parents who had supported him for many years, and he needed a reason to prepare in advance.

“Do you still remember what happened when I was eleven years old?” Tver planned to comfort his parents with a white lie.

“Actually, I have been subjected to the same curse, but don’t worry. After so many years in school, the teacher has long since helped me lift it.”

“As you know, the teacher has an unknown story with Principal Dumbledore, so he asked me to try to lift the curse on this class.”

“It doesn’t matter if it can’t be lifted. I’m just a teaching assistant anyway, and the curse won’t stick to me.”

Tver told his parents about the teacher, and they were very doubtful at first. Fortunately, he was able to cast the Patronus Charm all the time, which dispelled their worries.

It’s just that they don’t know that as long as they firmly believe in their own beliefs, even if they are evil beliefs, such a wizard can release the Patronus Charm…

But Brinda’s focus was seven years ago.

“So, the time when you were weak was because you were on the verge of death? Why didn’t you tell us such an important thing? I’m your mother?”

The more Brinda talked, the more sad she became. For a mother, the safety of her children was what she cared about most. As for Grindelwald and Dumbledore, she didn’t care…

Okay, caring, too, but that’s caring about gossip.

“Weren’t we worried that you would be worried at first?” Tver quickly stepped forward and held his mother in his arms, “And I’m fine now, very healthy.”

Mills also stepped forward, took Tver’s hand away, hugged his wife and whispered comfort.

“Tver is not an impulsive person. Even if there is danger, there is still Dumbledore in Hogwarts. He will not just watch Turville get hurt.”

“And the Welfare family is not without connections. It’s also possible to find a few knowledgeable wizards for help.”

The two of them hugged each other like this, discussing which famous wizards were good at lifting curses, regardless of the awkward look at Jeff next to them.

Tver.

“I can give you a hug if you want, but please hurry up, I still have to put away the dishes.” Jeff teased.

“…I thank you.”

Brinda and Mills later agreed with Tver’s decision.

“But only as a teaching assistant. If you let me know that you want to be a professor of this course, I will lock you in a cupboard for the rest of your life!” Brinda emphasized.

This made him relieved. His parents were his greatest comfort, and obtaining their consent was the purpose of returning home in the first place.

Sometimes I think that compared to other travelers who are alone, it is not a good thing to have caring and caring parents when walking in a strange world.

Tver stayed at the manor until his interview at Hogwarts.

I haven’t been back for two years, but the layout inside has not changed at all. Jeff cleans his room every day, so it is still clean now.

But the bedding has been replaced with new ones. In Brinda’s words, a new chapter will begin after graduation.

Life in the manor is actually very simple. When his father has time, he works as a chef in a restaurant in London. When he has no time, he spends time with Brinda.

As for Brinda, life is even simpler.

Shopping and watching movies are her biggest occupations. She doesn’t look like a wizard at all, but more like a leisurely lady.

Tver stayed at home all day long. Compared with Durmstrang’s military management, life in the manor seemed more leisurely.

But he’s not unaccustomed to it at all. He’s even more adaptable. At least there won’t be some wizards who take the trouble to come to him for a duel.

He is not a person who likes to wander outside. On the contrary, staying in the room and reading is his biggest hobby.

He spent a few days organizing his collection of books. If he became an assistant at Hogwarts, he would undoubtedly live in the castle.

But that will only happen when school starts on September 1st, so we can just deal with it then.

However, if these collections of books were seen by an Auror, he would probably be arrested without saying a word.

Because the names of these books don’t look very serious.

Such as “Principles of Black Magic – How to Release Black Magic Correctly”, “Belief Control – Make Your Black Magic More Powerful”, “Origin of Cursed Magic”, etc., the name alone is enough for Tver to own in Azkaban It’s a permanent room, and it has to be a VIP room.
