Forgiving Ron Weasley
To be honest, Professor Flitwick has always had a very bad temper, and not just a little bad temper, but an extremely bad temper.
Many people only know Flitwick as the peaceful Ravenclaw House Headmaster, Charms Professor, and a lovable old man who will take the initiative to cheer up students when they are sad.
But few people know how volatile Flitwick's temper was when he was young.
Even Professor Snape, who was once a formidable figure in the dark wizarding world, dared not provoke the enraged Flitwick, because he knew he was likely no match for Flitwick.
During Flitwick's school years, Pure-blood wizard held the greatest power, and bloodline discrimination was openly displayed.
How could Flitwick, a short, ugly man with half- Goblin blood, graduate so easily and eventually become the head of Ravenclaw House?
Professor Flitwick was able to thrive in the discriminatory environment of Hogwarts at the time thanks to only three things.
Ruthless, ruthless, and ruthless enough!
In order to protect himself within Hogwarts, Flitwick had no choice but to build himself a hard shell.
If anyone dares to provoke him, he will use every means at his disposal to show that person what cruelty is.
A three-time consecutive fighting tournament champion, how could Professor Flitwick be a kind old man?
In his youth, walking through the Hogwarts campus, not a single pure-blooded wizard dared to give him a second glance.
There's no need to wait until the next day; a few minutes later, he'll lead a large group of henchmen to surround that person and forcibly initiate a noble duel challenge.
At that time, dueling challenges were very popular among pure-blood nobles. Faced with Flitwick's challenge, the pure-bloods could not refuse out of face, and they could not refuse even when surrounded.
Therefore, through duels, Professor Flitwick defeated everyone in Hogwarts when he was young.
Even now, the patriarchs of those Pure-blood families dare to show their dissatisfaction with Dumbledore, but they wouldn't dare to bare their teeth at Professor Flitwick.
Because Professor Flitwick really beat them to death back then. If it weren't for the professor watching over them, these pure-blood patriarchs probably wouldn't have survived to graduation.
Gradually, Flitwick's reputation spread far and wide, and no one dared to provoke this man with Goblin blood.
Even when he became the headmaster of Ravenclaw House, the purebloods of the Board of Governors did not dare to raise any objections and unanimously approved him, always believing that this man with Goblin blood was qualified to become the headmaster of Ravenclaw House.
It's important to understand that back then at Hogwarts, and even now, all the teachers at Hogwarts are Pure-blood wizard, or a few are capable Half-blood wizards.
For a man of Goblin blood to become the dean of an academy, one can only imagine how volatile Flitwick's temper must have been, and how ruthless he could have been when he beat people.
"Mr. Weasley, this is a classroom, please be quiet," Flitwick said calmly, his face expressionless.
If a Pure-blood wizard was his peer back then were standing in front of him at this moment, he would probably be so terrified that he would wet himself.
Because Professor Flitwick only shows this expression when he is extremely, extremely, extremely angry.
The other students were all terrified and fell silent, not daring to utter a sound. They had never seen Professor Flitwick like this before.
In fact, in their eyes, Professor Flitwick had always been a kind-hearted man, always smiling.
But now, even though Flitwick wasn't speaking, the young wizards in the classroom could feel a powerful sense of oppression enveloping their entire bodies.
That's the oppressive power of a Duel Master!
Ron Weasley was sweating profusely under the pressure. He, who had always been a bully who preyed on the weak, now realized how terrifying Professor Flitwick was.
"Professor, I'm sorry, I was wrong," Ron Weasley said, trembling with fear.
Professor Flitwick narrowed his eyes slightly, saying nothing, but inwardly he was extremely disappointed.
He knew about Dumbledore's plan; in fact, he had participated at Dumbledore's request.
In the world of business, one is often not in control of one's own destiny. Although he did not want to be treated differently, his superior, Dumbledore, told him to promote Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.
He even hinted more than once that he could focus more of his energy on Harry and Ron Weasley during class.
Because of Dumbledore's request, when Ron Weasley first asked him for help, he went without hesitation.
When Ron Weasley led the attack on Lester, he remained silent and tried to smooth things over.
But after Hermione was scolded for helping her classmates, he couldn't take it anymore; he really didn't want to participate in this bullshit training program anymore.
Just because Harry Potter is the Chosen One and Ron Weasley is Weasley family, does that make them superior?
Can Hermione, Muggle-born, have her dignity trampled on at will?
Damn it, Flitwick got angrier and angrier, especially after seeing Ron Weasley's indifferent expression.
He had no idea what he did wrong; he just saw that he was angry and admitted his mistake under pressure!
"Oh well, what can you do? He's Arthur Weasley's child."
After a long silence, Flitwick sighed and gestured for Ron Weasley to sit down.
When he was in school, Arthur Weasley and Molly Weasley always took good care of him and did not discriminate against him because of his bloodline.
And then there's Professor Dumbledore. Although he's a bit eccentric now, when he was young, he encouraged himself every day, telling himself that he had talent and could succeed.
Regardless, he had to acknowledge the kindness the Weasley family and Dumbledore had shown him.
Therefore, Professor Flitwick had no choice but to forgive Ron Weasley this time.
