Chapter-18: Target Lockhart
This naturally got on the nerves of the people of order of phoenix and the ministry of magic.
The cunning minister of magic fudge quickly pushed this blame towards the order of phoenix people and directly condemns them for not taking care of the savior well.
Not only him but also the people from the side of minister of magic fudge started to distance from the order of phoenix and from the side of Dumbledore.
Dumbledore started to lose more and more connections to suppress the matter and lose many connections he formed over the years.
This includes part of his wealth as well.
Part of the things he spent went into the pockets of Daphne and Rita Skeeter.
Then, Minerva McGonagall hands out timetables and the first class is Herbology with the Hufflepuff.
In the class, Professor Sprout teaches how to transplant Mandrake seedlings, which have restorative properties when mature.
The next class is Transfiguration, where Ron has problems with his broken wand, even when he repaired it with some Spellotape.
This thing was noticed by Daphne and she would use this chance in the future when needed.
Next target is actually professor Lockhart.
Daphne wanted to steal his wand first before making him reveal his secret.
But for that she needs to hide her appearance and appear in different form to get the information.
If not later he would target her.
Daphne would not reveal about the secret of Lockhart right now but reveal it later when the time is right.
But she would get the evidence and confession first.
For that she has already invited Rita Skeeter to come over and later when Cornish pixies wreak havoc in Lockhart's class they would take the opportunity to change things.
That will be the best opportunity to do this.
So Daphne started to wait.
Soon a beetle flew over and came to her.
Daphne silently hit at the top of her neck and makes it look like some sort of rare gemstone on a necklace.
She went to participate in the class of Lockhart along with the Gryffindors.
She has the team of girls with her and during the class the girls became nymphomaniacs looking at Lockhart.
Well that is his level like an idol in the modern world with many brainless fans.
Daphne did not tell them about her plan this time and wily is silently following her all the time in secret.
It is like how dobby came to talk to Harry and does few things at Hogwarts.
Wily did not make any dangerous moves like dobby does. So he was not caught or cornered by any one or other house elves.
Also he dressed quite well and looked like he is not a lowly servant but a formal employee.
Because of this other house elves working at Hogwarts actually showed him some good will and talked to him wanting to know more about him.
Soon it the defense against dark arts class and everyone is here.
Being the only willing applicant for the jinxed position, Gilderoy Lockhart became Professor of Defence against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry during the second school academic year.
He applied without knowing the problem here and the problem with the post.
Well he is here for fame but not for money or other things.
His fame is his money after all.
His classroom and office at Hogwarts were decorated with pictures and portraits of himself.
Before the class started, Fred thought that the teacher must be a fan of Lockhart, for which he was certainly correct which moved and smiled there was even one of himself as a classical artist painting another medieval version portrait of himself.
He also decorated the office with copies of his publications.
After coming to the class Daphne looked around carefully and felt a huge sense of disgust towards Lockhart.
But she did not speak anything about this matter.
Wily is also here in hiding with his camera ready to record.
For his first lesson, he showed everyone in his class what he really was.
He first did this when he gave his second-year class a little quiz which was filled with questions that had nothing to do with Defence Against the Dark Arts, but instead concerned his autobiography, Magical Me, and the parts of his books just referring to him, such as what his favorite color and his ideal birthday present was.
He simply wanted to see how much the class had read his books.
Despite his claim of little, it ran for three pages with fifty-four questions, and only Hermione Granger got all of them correct.
Well she is the biggest fan girl in the class.
Daphne did not get even a single one correct and she was condemned by others.
Well she did not care about their words because she has her plan.
Lockhart was delighted with Hermione's perfect score, awarded Gryffindor ten house points.
Daphne would use her tricks at the end to directly break all these things at the end.
Her attack would be like tsunami that would directly destroy their little sand forts completely.
He then showed his true colors a second time when he proceeded to release a cage full of freshly caught Cornish Pixies into the classroom, causing a large amount of pandemonium.
He demonstrated his incompetence further a third time when he tried to stop them with a spell that had absolutely no effect on the pixies and then irresponsibly instructed Harry, Ron, and Hermione to clean up after the mess while running back into his office.
At that time one of Cornish pixies actually took the wand of Lockhart and also the wands of few of the students.
The mess was left for Harry, Ron and Hermione to clean up because they are the only ones that are left in the class at the end.
Daphne sneaked out first and waited for everything to be solved before coming in with disguise.
