Irving looked puzzled. He didn't understand why Lynn felt that he would embarrass himself in this Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but since the boss said so, he just did it.
Thinking of this, Irving said nothing more. He nodded and turned his gaze to Professor Moody on the podium. On his desk was a book called 'Dark Magic: A Guide to Self-Defense'.
However, after the class bell rang, Professor Moody said gruffly to the little wizards holding books under the podium: "Put these things away! You don't need these textbooks in my class!"
After hearing what Professor Moody said, Irving put away his textbook angrily, while Lynn beside him just sat there without moving. Lynn didn't even take out his textbook.
In fact, he didn't even buy the textbook.
At this time, Professor Moody took out the list, shook his head to shake his long gray hair away from his twisted, scarred face, and then began to call the roll.
Professor Moody's normal eye moved down the list, and the magical eye kept turning around, staring at every student who answered. When he called Lynn's name, he was stunned for a moment, and the pupil of his normal eye shrank slightly, and he seemed a little shocked.
But he quickly controlled his emotions and continued to call out the names of the little wizards as if nothing had happened.
"Well," Professor Moody said calmly after the last little wizard finished answering, "I received a letter from Professor Lupin introducing the course. It seems that you have already mastered a lot of basic knowledge on how to deal with dark creatures... You have learned how to deal with Boggarts, Red Caps, Hinkypunks, Grindylows, Kappas, and werewolves, right?"
Since Quirrell and Lockhart, those two useless professors, had basically taught nothing to the young wizards, the students in grades three, four, and five last year all learned almost the same knowledge from Professor Lupin, and they all needed to make up for the missing knowledge through him.
Of course, Lynn and his classmates in the same grade naturally had to learn more than Harry and his classmates, but these things were not too much.
After receiving affirmative responses from everyone, Professor Moody said calmly, "However, you have not learned enough about how to deal with various spells. So, I am going to let you experience what wizards do. I have a year to teach you how to deal with those dark wizards!"
"Magic has many forms, and the powers they contain are different. Now, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Magic, I should teach you various counter-curses, that's all. Logically speaking, you are not yet in sixth grade and have not passed the O.W.L. exam. I should not tell you what those illegal dark magics look like, because you are still young and cannot deal with this kind of thing."
"But it seems to me that the sooner you learn what you have to deal with, the better it will be for you. How can you protect yourself from something you have never seen before? A Dark wizard will not tell you what he is going to do when he casts a Dark spell on you. He will not do it frankly, fairly, or politely."
Professor Moody said so.
Even though the Professor Moody standing on the podium was actually Barty Crouch Jr. in disguise, Lynn had to admit that what he said was indeed very reasonable. Even if the real Professor Moody were standing here, he probably couldn't have said it better.
"Well, do any of you know which spells carry the most severe penalties under the law?"
After saying that, Professor Moody looked around at everyone and asked.
Faced with Professor Moody's question, most of the young wizards did not dare to raise their hands to answer. Even Irving next to Lynn was hesitating, not knowing whether he should say the answer.
After all, the three Unforgivable Curses are something that a young wizard of this age should never know. Who knows if the other party is testing their knowledge of the law?
When no one in the audience dared to answer, Lynn raised his hand calmly.
After receiving a signal from Professor Moody, he stood up and said calmly, "The three Unforgivable Curses are the Imperius Curse, the Cruciatus Curse, and the Killing Curse!"
Lynn's dark red eyes looked directly into Professor Moody's eyes, as if he could see through the layer of Polyjuice Potion disguise and see Barty Crouch Jr. underneath.
Seeing Lynn's calm dark red eyes, Professor Moody suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation. He quickly waved his hand and asked Lynn to sit down.
After Lynn said the names of the three Unforgivable Curses at once, Professor Moody skipped the step of continuing to ask questions to everyone. He poured out a spider from a glass bottle, used the spider as an experimental subject, and demonstrated the three Unforgivable Curses to everyone one by one.
As the faint green light lit up in the dim Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, the spider on the podium completely lost its life.
Looking at this horrifying scene, all the little wizards in the classroom, except for Lynn and Irving who had already learned the three Unforgivable Curses, had looks of fear in their eyes.
"Okay, for the rest of this class, I'm going to cast the Imperius Curse on each of you to demonstrate the power of this dark magic and see if you can resist its effects."
After killing the spider with the Killing Curse, Professor Moody looked at everyone coldly and announced.
He had originally planned to start the course on casting the Imperius Curse on everyone next week, but Lynn's answer saved him a lot of time, which also left him with extra time to carry out this session.
Hearing Professor Moody's words, everyone present except Lynn was shocked.
Irving even stood up and objected, "Professor Moody, as a retired Auror from the Ministry of Magic, you should know that it is illegal to use the three Unforgivable Curses on wizards, right? Moreover, we are all underage wizards. If you do this, you will probably be sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban!"
Hearing this, Professor Moody sneered and said, "So what? Dumbledore wants you to experience it. If you are willing to learn in a more cruel way... waiting for others to cast this dark magic on you and completely control you... then very good, I agree, you can go!"
Professor Moody said as he pointed to the classroom door.
Irving was silent. He finally understood what the golden pocket watch Lynn had given him was used for.
If he was controlled by the Imperius Curse and did something in the classroom that was not in line with his usual style, then he would be really embarrassed!
