As William said, Hagrid was not expelled and remained as his teacher.

However, as punishment, Hagrid was demoted from a full-time teacher to a probationary teacher.

Malfoy was very happy, believing it was all thanks to his father, Old Malfoy, whose family still had a great deal of influence at Hogwarts!

So after he was discharged from the hospital, he would walk around in front of Harry all day with his arm wrapped in bandages, like a victorious general.

Enraged, Harry started fighting with Malfoy.

With one hand bandaged, Malfoy couldn't overpower Harry even without the injury.

He was quickly knocked to the ground by Harry!

Unfortunately, just as Harry climbed onto Malfoy and was about to unleash Phase Rush, Professor Snape appeared.

He'd been lurking in the corner for ages, just waiting to catch Harry red-handed.

Caught red-handed, Gryffindor lost another fifty points, and Harry still had to spend the weekend with McLaggen, living a carefree life.

The little lion was surprised to find that Gryffindor not only come in last place, but had once again received a negative score.

Oh, Merlin! It's like stepping back in time three years!

The most annoyed person wasn't Professor McGonagall, but Wood, because Harry was in solitary confinement and couldn't train Quidditch every weekend.

He was so frustrated. He really wanted to travel back in time, and after the Hippogriff bit Malfoy, go to the Hospital Wing and finish him off, sending him to meet Merlin for good.

This way, Harry won't fight with Malfoy, Slytherin House will have one less Seeker.

With Professor Snape backing him up, Malfoy became even more smug, wandering around the school every day, telling everyone: Hagrid will soon be kicked out.

Unfortunately, it was all wishful thinking on his part.

Being demoted from a full-time teacher to a probationary teacher wasn't a particularly severe punishment, at least not for Hagrid.

His predecessor Professor Kettleburn, underwent a 62-year probationary period before being officially appointed.

It's just that the salary is a little lower, but for Hagrid, money doesn't matter; the key is interest.

William quickly stopped paying attention to it, as he was busy with the start of the semester.

Everyone is busy.

The twins and Cedric are in fifth grade and are busy with their OWL exams a year from now.

Cedric was fine; he was already number one in his class, so studying was a breeze for him. However, his Animagus was at a crucial moment.

He studies with Professor McGonagall every day. After he finishes the OWLs exam, he will try it out.

The twins, on the other hand, had to study hard and try to get decent grades so they could barely appease Mrs. Weasley.

Otherwise, she would nag all summer.

The amount of homework in fourth grade suddenly increased, and the students all noticed this.

When everyone complained that Professor McGonagall assigned too much homework for her Transfiguration, Professor McGonagall explained why.

"You are entering a crucial period of your magical education! Your OW Ls exam is fast approaching..."

"We don't take the level exams until fifth grade!" Judy Crouch retorted, echoing Snape's words.

"We have two years, or 730 days, or 17,520 hours left!"

"Perhaps that's true, but believe me, you need to be fully prepared!"

Professor McGonagall gave the students a stern look.

"In this class, only Mr. Stark could easily turn a porcupine into a perfect cushion."

Miss Crouch, I should remind you that your cushion still curls up in fear and makes a purring sound when someone gets close to it!

Seeing everyone's dejected expressions, Professor McGonagall comforted them, "Just keep trying. After you finish the OW Ls exam, you'll be relaxed. Sixth and seventh year students have a lot of free time; even if you date, nobody will care."

Everyone burst into laughter, believing Professor McGonagall's words.

William glanced sideways; Professor McGonagall's tone sounded exactly like his high school homeroom teacher from his previous life.

He told everyone the same thing: things will be easier once you get to university.

Following Dumbledore's advice, most professors relieved William of his assignments, allowing him to focus more on his own studies.

William also rarely attended Divination, Muggle Studies, or Ancient Runes, making the most of all his time.

But there's never enough time.

Whenever William made such a remark, Hermione would encourage him to use the Time-Turner with her.

Hermione suggested that the two could use it once every night, turning two hours of training into four hours.

This way, they can have more time to do things they enjoy.

For example... studying!

William was very interested in this proposal.

Defence Against Dark Magic suddenly became the most anticipated class.

Because Boggart transformed into Snape during Wednesday's class, Neville dressed him in Mrs. Longbottom's clothes.

The atmosphere at school changes very quickly. Just a few days ago, Professor Snape was a terrifying Werewolf, but now rumors are going around that he's a cross-dresser.

The twins were quite business-minded; they planned to use their spare time to search for a Boggart in the castle.

They wanted Neville to recreate that famous scene, and then forced Boggart to take various photos in women's clothing to sell to other students.

Everyone's a little excited about Snape in drag... well, really excited!

A sexy professor, dressed in women's clothing online... tsk tsk, Professor Snape's debut is quite something!

Professor Snape's temper became even more volatile; during Potions Class, he unusually caused the cauldron to explode!

His expression was terrifying, and his eyes flashed with a violent light.

The Gryffindor student was in trouble; he deducted points from all the lion cubs in the class.

The reason given was that they breathed too much air from the classroom, which nearly caused him to suffocate due to lack of oxygen, leading to the crucible exploding.

It seems Snape is determined to forever Gryffindor with shame.

On Thursday, Ravenclaw had their first Defence Against Dark Magic.

When William and Qiu entered the classroom, Professor Lupin had not yet arrived. No one had taken out their textbooks; they were all waiting for the professor to take them to the faculty lounge for practical exercises.

Lupin entered the classroom three minutes before class started. He was using his wand to control a large cage, which was completely covered by a black curtain.

Peeves followed Professor Lupin at a distance, not daring to get too close, but constantly singing loudly:

"Four bad students, mischievous and troublesome, only Remus is an unlucky fellow!"

Professor Lupin listened to the song with a nostalgic look on his face. He smiled and said, "Peeves, you still remember the song you composed more than ten years ago?"

"Pah! Peeves doesn't like you bastards!"

Peeves stuck out his tongue, and seeing that Professor Lupin was about to free his hands, he immediately ran away.

Lupin placed the cage on the table and chuckled, "I was originally planning to take everyone to the faculty lounge; it's spacious there."

However, our Professor Snape is already there and shows no sign of leaving. We'd better not disturb him, or he might suffocate from breathing too much air."

Everyone burst into laughter.

The large cage that Lupin brought suddenly began to shake, making a banging sound.

"Professor, what did you teach us today?" Marietta asked boldly.

"Oh, what an interesting Magical Creatures. I'll teach you all how to deal with it; it will be helpful in your battles." Professor Lupin winked.

Katie Bell raised her hand and asked, "Can you teach us how to deal with Peeves? How to get it out of Hogwarts?"

"Oh, Miss Bell, I'd be happy to teach you some slightly useful magic. But if you want to get Peeves out of Hogwarts..."

Professor Lupin shook his head. "If I were you, I wouldn't have that thought."

"Why?"

"Many years ago, four students had a similar idea to yours; they wanted to catch Peeves and study him."

Professor Lupin waved his wand, stacking the tables and instantly increasing the available space.

"And then what happened?" McLaggen asked curiously.

"They devised an ingenious trap, consisting of a variety of weapons used as bait and a huge bell jar enchanted with various restraining spells."

Once Peeves was in the right position, the bell tower was supposed to fall and trap the mischievous sprite. But things didn't go as planned.

A slight smile appeared on Lupin's face.

Peeves easily blew open the bell jar. He somehow got his hands on a crossbow, a Muggle AK47, and a Gatling gun.

Peeves started shooting indiscriminately for fun, threatening the students' lives. As a result, the castle had to be evacuated for three days.

No one wants to really offend Peeves, let alone kick him out of Hogwarts.

William was speechless. Had Peeves really done something so wild?

Is this the legendary: Namo Peeves, Six Roots Pure Depleted Uranium Bomb?
