Why Are You My Teacher?

"Isn't it normal for students to ask teachers questions? Don't make such a fuss."

"But your question..." Draco hesitated, "No teacher would like that."

"No, to be precise, a teacher wouldn't like someone who lacks ability, but a teacher might not like someone who does have ability."

Draco hesitated for a few seconds, then looked at Aaron with a complicated expression and said, "I still want to advise you not to write it like this. Just do a perfunctory job like everyone else."

"It's okay, I just wanted to give this famous professor a try."

"Don't tell me students don't even have the right to question their teachers." Aaron said nonchalantly, his suspicion of Lockhart now at 99%, this was the final test.

If the other party is truly hiding their true abilities, he can sincerely apologize; otherwise, if the other party is truly just pretending, then there's no need to attend Defense Against the Dark Arts this year.

"But..."

Do you think a renowned professor would make things difficult for a twelve-year-old student in class?

"Probably, maybe, perhaps not, but what if?"

"Crabbe and Goyle will give Slytherin points, won't they?"

Even if Lockhart gets angry, how many points can he deduct from my score? Ten points, or twenty?

Two perfect scores should be enough to make up for this missing point and won't negatively impact Slytherin House.

"Go ahead and get a leg transplant! Since you're determined to get a leg transplant, I won't stop you."

More than half an hour later, Lockhart collected the test papers and excitedly flipped through them in front of the whole class.

"Tsk tsk! Almost no one remembers that I like lilac color, which I mentioned in 'A Year with the Tibetan Yeti'."

Some students should carefully read "Wandering with Werewolves." In the book, I explicitly mentioned that my ideal birthday present for you is that all people, whether they have magic or not, can live in harmony...

Lockhart would glance at the audience every now and then while speaking, his eyes blinking playfully – a feat that could only be accomplished through professional training.

Some students doubted his teaching ability and could only suppress their laughter, while some die-hard fans listened attentively, their faces filled with admiration.

"If he were Fantastic Beasts, his cuteness factor would probably be even better Abei's," Draco couldn't help but laugh.

Abei bared his teeth at Draco in annoyance, then turned around and settled into a comfortable position on the table.

"Uh..." Aaron chuckled and Petting Dragon, "It means, don't compare it to garbage."

"Hermione Granger," Lockhart suddenly called out Hermione's name. "Miss Granger knows my secret ambition is to eradicate all evil in the world and to sell my own line of hair care products—Miss Granger!"

One point!

Where is Miss Granger?

Hermione excitedly raised her hand, her body trembling slightly; this was how it felt to be called upon by her idol.

"Excellent, ten points in Gryffindor." Lockhart said with a smile, then continued to look through the remaining test papers in his hand, and soon his expression became incredibly interesting.

"Miss Granger's excellence is beyond doubt, but I must commend the next two."

Their answers were so perfect, so perfect, that I could hardly believe it. Lockhart looked excitedly at the students below, seemingly trying to find his most loyal fan among them.

The students' attention gradually shifted to Aaron and Draco, because there were only a few top students in this classroom, and besides Hermione, they were the only two left.

"That's right, it seems you've all figured out who it is."

They are Gregory Goyle and Vincent Crabbe.

"Slytherin gets ten points, and each of them gets ten points, that's twenty points." Lockhart laughed. "Where are these two students?"

Don't be shy, let everyone get to know you.

Crabbe and Goyle looked at each other, then reluctantly raised their hands.

Lockhart's lips twitched. These two chubby little Warlock, one of them even bigger than two, might affect the overall quality of his fan base if he took them out.

The others stared at them in astonishment, their faces filled with disbelief.

It's one thing if it wasn't Aaron and Draco, but Crabbe and Goyle actually got full marks? That's ridiculous.

Only Hermione looked at Aaron with displeasure. She knew very well what level Crabbe and Goyle were at; they couldn't possibly answer all the questions. Someone must have helped them.

As for who helped them, she couldn't be bothered to guess.

What annoyed her was that Aaron knew all the correct answers, which meant he was also a loyal fan of Professor Lockhart.

However, he was quite disdainful of Lockhart when they were in the Great Hall, and now he has told all the answers to the others.

Despite admiring Professor Lockhart greatly, she never showed it to herself.

It's only been one holiday! How come he's changed so much?

Lockhart continued to look through the students' exam papers. None of the remaining students had given the correct answers, but one or two students took the opportunity to ask him for autographs, which made him marvel at the enthusiasm of his fans.

Lockhart frowned as he looked at the last exam paper.

He glanced somewhat guiltily at the students below the podium, but his expression remained unchanged. "Who is Aaron Gaius?"

"It's me." Aaron calmly raised his hand.

"What do you mean by what you wrote on your exam paper?" Lockhart said with a forced smile. "What makes you think you can be my teacher?"

The classroom suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Aaron. Apart from a few Lockhart die-hard fans who were a little angry, everyone else's eyes were full of excitement.

They had similar doubts, but lacked the courage to question the professor. Unexpectedly, Aaron Juxi spoke the minds of everyone in the very first lesson.

"It means exactly what it says?" Aaron looked Lockhart straight in the eye, without flinching. "What makes you think you can be my teacher?"

Lockhart chuckled. "You're joking."

"This is not a joke, I'm serious."

I don't think Professor Lockhart would refuse to answer his students' questions!

Lockhart hesitated for a moment, and the smile on his face gradually faded. "I think I gave the perfect answer when I entered the classroom."

"But I don't think so."

"I need a more accurate answer, not some offhand resume," Aaron said seriously. "By the way, didn't you just say you banished the Ghouls of Ghouls?"

Could you please demonstrate how you did it back then?

"This..." Lockhart stammered, "I..."

"Aaron, you've gone too far," Hermione said in a low voice. "Quickly apologize to Professor Lockhart. He's one of the greatest Warlock of this century. He won't hold it against you."

Hearing this, Aaron was both amused and exasperated.

He knew this was Hermione offering a way out for both sides; putting on a show might resolve the conflict, but the problem was he didn't need it.

"Hermione, I have to tell you, what's written in the book must be correct."

"Well said." Lockhart clapped his hands. "I completely agree with what Mr. Gaius said. I plan to include it in my next book. You don't mind, do you?"

"Whatever makes you happy. I didn't say that," Aaron said impatiently. "Then could you demonstrate how you did it back then?"

"No..." Lockhart gave Aaron an apologetic look, then looked at the somewhat disappointed students. "It's not that I don't want to demonstrate, but the power of this magic is too great."

If this were to happen, this classroom might be lost; I have to think about the safety of my students.

Lockhart spoke with absolute certainty, and the students had no doubts; after all, powerful Warlock were not to be underestimated in battle.

"It's alright." Aaron smiled nonchalantly. "We can go to the playground to admire the professor's magic. I can ask Headmaster Snape for permission."

I think he's more eager than anyone to see the Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor's abilities.

Lockhart paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "That probably won't work either."

That spell is probably much more powerful than you think; I'm worried it might destroy the playground.

Even with Repair Charm, it will take one or two weeks to repair, which will seriously affect the students' activities.

"Hehe!"

Aaron sneered inwardly. This wouldn't work, that wouldn't work; he couldn't think of any other possibility but his own guilty conscience.

"Professor Lockhart is amazing!" Susan, sitting in the front row, said with admiration.

Aaron stumbled and almost lost his balance. This girl's IQ wasn't this low before, how could her brain suddenly become damaged?

"Does the professor have any other ways to prove his abilities?"

"Of course." Lockhart pulled out a large cage covered with a cloth from behind the podium, then gave Aaron a look. "Don't be scared!"

Aaron sat up straight and nodded, then gestured for him to begin his performance.

Lockhart took out his Wand and looked at everyone seriously. "Let me make it clear beforehand that my duty is to teach you in this classroom how to fight against the most evil Magical Creatures and confront the fears deep within your hearts."

"As long as I'm here, you will all be unharmed. Please don't scream, because that will anger them."

These words were infectious, and the atmosphere in the classroom became heavy. The students sitting in the front row involuntarily leaned back, trying to get as far away from the cage as possible.

Lockhart lifted the cover, revealing a cage filled with eight-inch-long, bluish-gray creatures that gripped the cage tightly, shaking it and making chirping noises.

But their size, the same as that of Mandrake Seedling, makes it impossible to associate them with the word "dangerous."
