Chapter 919: Fight Like a Cowboy

When Ron heard that he had to take two consecutive PE classes in the afternoon, he even thought about skipping them, but was stopped by Harry and Hermione.

After a short lunch break, they followed the route they remembered from the morning to the playground, but got lost again. After arriving at the playground, they greeted the physical education teacher, a wizard wearing a cowboy hat, with trepidation.

The cowboy hat originated in Mexico and was later favored by American cowboys, becoming one of the cultural symbols of cowboys.

Thinking of this, combined with the closed-mindedness of wizards, the relationship between Europe and America, etc., Huiyuan Ai guessed that the origin of this teacher should not be simple, and the content he was going to teach should not be running...

"What I'm going to teach you is how to pull out the wand quickly!" The PE teacher said loudly while raising his hand. The next moment, a new type of wand, which was shorter and about the size of a pistol, appeared in his empty hand. He pointed it horizontally at a student in front of him, as if he was about to cast a spell. The student shrank his neck in fear.

"Take out your wands first and let me see...Sir, where is your wand?" The cowboy teacher asked Harry Potter who had empty hands.

"Sorry sir, it's too heavy. I didn't expect to use the wand in this class." Harry was embarrassed because the heavy sniper staff was really heavy. He was also worried that he would have to run in this physical education class, so he left the wand in the dormitory: "Can I go back and get it now?"

"Sir, whether you are studying here or in your future wizard career, you must learn one thing - never let your wand out of your control." The cowboy teacher flicked the brim of his hat with his wand: "So I hope to leave you a deep lesson. You should learn this lesson like this."

The teacher held out his empty left hand, with his thumb and index finger spread out and the other three fingers folded together - making a pistol gesture: "Pah!"

One of the Slytherin freshmen who was in the class with them burst into laughter. Of course, it would be embarrassing for the guy to make a finger-gun gesture when everyone else was holding a wand like a gun.

"I have an extra wand. Do you want me to lend it to you?" Martin pointed at the Doraemon sitting at the entrance of the playground. Besides carrying the luggage, his only function was to provide emotional value. "Just go to him and get it."

Before, Ma Wu changed Martin's wand into several wands and never changed it back. Instead, he threw the extra wands into Doraemon's pocket.

"But..." Harry remembered that wizards could easily cause damage when they used wands that were not suitable for them, at least that was the case with him.

"It's okay. This is fine." Teacher Cowboy made the decision first. "I've thought of an interesting way to play. You all don't know how to cast spells yet, right? Gentlemen and ladies who can cast spells, please raise your hands so I can see... one, two, three. Those who are good can put them down now."

"Now, exchange your wand with the person next to you, yes, exchange wands." The cowboy teacher ordered: "We use the little rascals of the wand to replace the effect of the spell."

Ma Wu looked at Huihara Ai, and when they were ready to exchange wands, Huihara Ai shook her head, and then looked at the teacher: "My wand is an ash wand. Mr. Ollivander said that if I give it to someone else, it will lose its spirituality."

"Yes, that's right." Teacher Cowboy nodded: "You don't have to exchange."

Ma Wu turned his head and took a look at the assault wand in Martin's hand. Although it could still trigger colorful RGB lighting effects when in Martin's hand, the little girl did not like this kind of weapon. In the end, Ma Wu and Hermione exchanged wands.

Martin, who was disliked by his sister, turned his head to look at Harry Potter and held out his wand: "Hmm?"

Harry looked down at the wand he had just gotten from Doraemon, then looked at the identical wand in Martin's hand: "?"

"He said he wanted to exchange it with someone close to him, but he didn't say we couldn't exchange it with the same person." Martin said confidently.

That's true, who else but you can have the same wand? Harry was embarrassed, even though he had just entered the wizarding world, he realized that this was a very difficult thing to do.

Ron handed his old wand to the troublemaker Neville and reminded him again and again: "Please be careful! It's already very fragile!"

When everyone else had almost exchanged their wands, Mr. Cowboy suddenly chuckled a few times: "Gentlemen and ladies? Remember what I just said? - Never let your wand get out of your control! Anyone who has exchanged wands will lose one point in this class!"

"Ah..." "What?" "Tsk..."

Various complaints were heard, and the freshmen deeply understood the complexity of Hogwarts.

Hermione was also sulking. She was almost able to see through the sinister intentions of the Cowboy teacher, but when she was hesitating and thinking, she saw that Ma Wu and his companions on both sides had not exchanged wands, so he took the initiative to offer to exchange with her because she also used a traditional wand.

"Is there anyone who hasn't exchanged? Raise your wands so I can see them!"

Only three hands were raised. Among them, if it weren't for the special nature of the ash wand, Huibara Ai would have switched with Ma Wu. Another one was the pretty boy from Slytherin, who proudly raised his small wand, which was shorter than a woman's self-defense pistol and looked like a snake's fangs.

The third hand was Martin's, shamelessly holding up the wand that had just passed through Harry's hands, but it was indeed Martin's wand.

The cowboy teacher stared at him with half-moon eyes: You call this not changing?

Martin raised his chin, looking unjustified but confident.

"Okay, I've got that. You three won't be penalized. Those who have already been swapped don't need to be swapped back. What I just said wasn't a complete lie. This class really needs you to make some noise to make it interesting."

Then the cowboy teacher began to teach: "First, I will teach you how to use the American style Iai... I mean to quickly draw out the wand. First, put the wand at your waist. Of course, I have no objection to you putting it anywhere else you like, but in the end, the speed at which you draw out the wand cannot be slower than the speed I require."

"Next, your dominant hand should hang naturally at the side of your body, and you have to get used to this movement. When you realize you need to use a spell, raise your hand and straighten your waist at the same time, and your fingers will gently and naturally hook the handle of the wand - just like this. Okay, now start practicing. If you don't understand anything, you can raise your hand to ask questions."

Martin and Harry were stuck on the first move. The others' wands were about the length of a pistol with a silencer, but Martin's assault rifle was long and heavy. If he wore it on his waist like his cowboy teacher had taught him, it would only pull his pants down.

If it was Harry's heavy sniper rifle that was more than one meter long, his pants would not fall down if he put it on his waist - the muzzle would be directly against the ground.

And one thing is very strange, the students all wear black robes, and in order to learn the teacher's gun-drawing technique, they have to untie the robes and put the part that is in the way behind them. And the other teachers, including the principal, wear green, purple, and white robes, and only the cowboy teacher wears short clothes that are convenient for drawing a gun. Is this technique really of practical value?

Martin changed the way he held the gun, still carrying it on his back, but this time he did not carry it diagonally behind his back as usual. Instead, he carried it vertically like a hunter. Once he found prey, he pulled the strap to let the shotgun flip over his shoulder and quickly fall into his hands.

Harry also imitated Martin, and it seemed that this posture worked fine for his gun.

The next step is practice. Apart from them, the practice pictures of others are somewhat magical:

The cowboy teacher taught the method of drawing a gun... There is a waist-bending movement in the essentials of drawing a magic wand. For veterans, the amplitude of this movement can be very small, and they only need to transfer the power of the waist to the magic wand at the waist. But the newcomers have to practice waist-bending in an exaggerated way - so in the playground in the afternoon, a group of young boys and girls are constantly repeating the action of waist-bending forward, and it is the kind of waist-bending that is very sudden and twitching, like cramps.

No wonder this course has to start from the first grade, it will not look right when you are older.

And there is another factor that makes the scene even more chaotic, that is the special phenomenon caused by the incompatible wands after the wands are exchanged.

These phenomena occur simultaneously when the wand is waved, emitting sound, light, electricity, fire or shock waves. If the wizard draws the wand quickly enough, these phenomena will occur after the wand is raised, just like the casting of some low-power spell.

But if the wizard doesn't draw his gun fast enough, these strange phenomena will explode halfway through waving the wand.

Moreover, the essence of these phenomena was the wands throwing tantrums. Some of the wands with particularly high spirituality had already understood that this group of people were taking advantage of their reactions, and immediately did the opposite - as soon as they were put on the waist, they started to spit fire, and almost made a spicy chicken dish.

There is another side.

"No! Neville!" Ron shouted in horror, then flew out.

I saw that his tattered wand had flown out of Neville's hand, drawing a not very graceful arc in the air.

Ron flew out in desperation and fell to the ground, but he successfully caught his wand with his body.

Because Ron used a traditional three-handed wand and had no money to buy a modification kit, this traditional wooden stick wand was not suitable for the techniques taught by the cowboy teacher. When Neville tried to use it forcibly, he swung his hand too fast and the wand flew out of his hand.

Ma Wu, Huihara Ai and Hermione are also troubled by the shortcomings of traditional wands. They all use traditional wands.

Teacher Cowboy came to Ma Wu and said, "It looks like you've run into a little trouble. It turns out to be a beautiful traditional wand. What a classy little beauty."

Hermione: You sound like you're praising my wand.

"This position is not suitable for a wand without a handle. Perhaps you should try the inner pocket of your robe. Did you notice that there is an inner pocket in your robe? In the past, when there were no new wands, this long and thin inner pocket was used to hold wands."

Martin stopped practicing, crossed his arms and looked at the cowboy teacher.

The one-on-one teaching by the Cowboy teacher was very serious: "Yes, put your index and middle fingers in, and pinch the wand with your thumb while pulling it out... After pulling it out, turn your wrist, from pinching the wand to holding it."

After teaching Ma Wu, the other two girls who were listening also learned it. When Teacher Cowboy saw it, he nodded and wanted to reach out to pat Huibara Ai on the head, but Huibara Ai frowned and took a step back to avoid him.

Harry was still practicing hard. After all, he had never touched a wand or a gun before, and Dudley never let him touch his toy gun.

"Look, look, look, who is this clumsy guy?" Malfoy came with two little followers again. It seemed that he was not going to miss any opportunity to mock Harry: "Where is your long and heavy clumsy thing?"

"Don't you understand? The speed of casting is the most important thing. I will kill you before you even pick up the wand." Malfoy continued to taunt and demonstrated the results of his training. A small and curved new wand soon appeared in his hand. This wand was his own. It was not made by Ollivander but by the Malfoy family themselves. It was not as long as Malfoy's palm. It didn't even need to be pinned to the waist. He could hold it in the palm of his hand with his thumb and it could not be seen from the back of his hand.

Malfoy even pointed it at Harry Potter's head. Who knows if he was just joking or if he really was fantasizing about killing Harry Potter and becoming the new Dark Lord?

Ron on the side said sarcastically: "It's strange that there are still people who are proud of their small things."

Malfoy's pale face suddenly darkened, and Harry Potter was also very annoyed with this boy who came to trouble him again and again, and he also raised the assault wand and gestured at Malfoy in response.

When he saw the wand pointed at him, Malfoy did recall the bad memories Martin had brought back when he used it.

"Oh, contradiction! Conflict! Fight!" The cowboy teacher noticed the two people who were on the verge of a fight, but he did not stop them. Instead, he was very excited: "You have all practiced almost enough, right? Then we are going to enter the highlight of today! The cowboy showdown!"

Because of this guy's appearance, all the Muggle-born students were not surprised by this suggestion.

"Gryffindor and Slytherin students, one-on-one duel." Teacher Cowboy announced the rules: "Both parties will take their hands off their wands and turn their backs to each other. Then, when I give the signal, they will turn around at the same time, pull out their wands and wave them. The one who gets hit first loses."

Not only do you have to pull out the wand, but you also have to get the other person hit.

"The loser will deduct one point from his/her house, and the winner will add one point to his/her house."

Many students' eyes lit up when they heard this. They had sprained their ankle at the beginning of the class due to the teacher's tricks and lost a point. They were looking forward to this opportunity to gain the points back.

"The first match starts with you two!" Teacher Cowboy pointed at Harry and Malfoy who had already started the fight. (End of this chapter)
