The God of Ice and Fire at Hogwarts

The two parties remained silent. After a while, Harry asked resentfully, "Why do they go to the arena?"

"They're hungry," Lupin said calmly, snapping his briefcase shut. "Professor Dumbledore won't let them into the school, so their source of prey has dried up... I believe they can't resist. The crowd's enchantment around the stadium. The excitement... the thrill... they felt like it was a feast."

"Azkaban must be terrifying," Harry murmured.

Professor Lupin nodded sadly and said indifferently, "That fortress was built on an isolated island in the vast sea, but there's no need for high walls or seawater to imprison people. All the prisoners are locked up because they can't evoke a single happy thought. Most people go mad within a few weeks of being there."

"But Sirius Black evaded them," Harry said slowly, "He escaped..."

The professor's briefcase slid off the table, and he quickly bent down to pick it up.

"Yes," he straightened up and said, "Black must have found some way to resist them. I thought it was impossible... It's said that Dementors can drain the magic of a wizard if they spend enough time with them. If necessary, for a long time..."

Harry suddenly said, "But wizards should also have ways to resist Dementors, right? Irina and that Major Rowle can do it."

At that moment, Irina, who had been listening, said softly, "If you want to learn, I can teach you, Harry."

Hearing this, Harry's eyes lit up, and he looked at Irina.

Irina continued, "If you're willing, we can meet tonight at the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Lynn and I will be waiting for you there."

Behind the podium, Professor Lupin watched silently as Harry and Irina discussed sneaking out of the castle after curfew in front of him.

"Do you two really consider me a professor?"

"Of course, I assume that Professor Lupin is also very good at the Patronus Charm, right?"

As she said this, Irina suddenly turned her attention to Professor Lupin.

Professor Lupin forced a smile and said, "Yes, you can ask me about the Patronus Charm. But I think it will have to wait until next semester. I have a lot to do before the holidays. This illness is really taking its toll... Now is not the time!"

Professor Lupin still looked very weak, and Irina understood that these were the aftereffects of his full moon night.

After getting the results she wanted, Harry left the classroom satisfied.

Professor Lupin looked at Irina, who was still in the classroom, and asked aloud, "Miss Lowell, do you have any questions?"

Irina's beautiful ice-blue eyes met Professor Lupin's, and she said quietly, "I think, professor, you should know how Sirius Black escaped from Azkaban."

Hearing this, Professor Lupin's heart stirred, but he kept his expression unchanged. "How could I know how he escaped?"

Irina chuckled softly and said, "Professor, stop fooling yourself. Since you hid the method of Sirius Black's escape from everyone and didn't even tell Professor Dumbledore, you probably think you were wronged, right?"

Professor Lupin remained silent for a while before asking hoarsely, "Miss Lowell, what else do you know?"

"Professor, just call me Irina," Irina smoothed her snow-white hair over her shoulders, her tone calm. "Animagus. Sirius Black is an Animagus. And it's possible that you still know him."

After hearing Irina say "Animagus," Professor Lupin was momentarily shocked. However, when he heard Irina say "it's possible that you still know him," a storm of emotions stirred in his heart.

Professor Lupin's eyes darkened. He looked at the beautiful witch in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Irina, how do you know?"

Irina smiled faintly and took a piece of parchment from her pocket.

"I solemnly swear that I am up to no good!"

Irina tapped her wand on the surface of the parchment, and then a form appeared on it.

A line of large green characters appeared at the top of the parchment: Moon Face, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs. Knights specializing in helping magical mischief-makers grandly launch the Marauder's Map!

Irina said softly, "If I guessed correctly, these four code names correspond to you, Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew, known as the hero, and Harry's father, James Potter."

Professor Lupin unconsciously took a step back. He looked surprised at the parchment in Irina's hand. "The Marauder's Map?! I didn't expect it to be in your hands."

Yes, the parchment in Irina's hand was the Marauder's Map, which she had obtained from Lynn before the start of this class.

Even before the start of this Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Irina had already planned to confess everything to Professor Lupin.

Her and Lynn's plan needed to eliminate all unstable factors. Sirius Black was one, and Professor Lupin was naturally another.

On Halloween, they met with Sirius Black and informed him of their plans, thus removing Sirius Black as an unstable factor. Today, Irina planned to eliminate the weapon that Professor Lupin carried.

And what she did was, naturally, tell him the truth and draw him into her camp.

Irina said calmly, "Professor, your assumption is actually not wrong. Sirius Black is truly innocent, and the real murderer of that incident was Peter Pettigrew, whom they called the hero."

Upon hearing this, Professor Lupin looked at Irina with a cold tone: "But what proof do you have? Don't forget, Peter Pettigrew was also one of my best friends. If you don't have any evidence, I can understand that you're slandering my friend, and he was also a martyr who gave his life to protect the magical world!"

Irina chuckled softly. She didn't speak but handed a newspaper to Professor Lupin.

In the center of the newspaper, there was a photo of the Weasley family traveling to Egypt. The entire Weasley family smiled at the camera.

However, Professor Lupin's eyes didn't linger on the Weasleys. His attention focused on Ron's rat, Scabbers, which was a rat missing a toe on its paw!
