Most of the parents stared at the teacher, and some of the students looked horrified.
“A werewolf?” Could be heard from a few places. Reproachful looks met the director.
Harry's eyes went to the werewolf meanwhile. he knew an animal that felt cornered could be dangerous. He trusted in the man's self-control, but when so many attacked him that was something else. the wolf in the man might get scared and attack.
The boy stood by his teacher and carefully took his hand. One could clearly feel the claws on the fingertips.
“Don't,” Harry tried to calm Lupine quietly, “please stay calm. We won't let them hurt you. "
Harry had used the confidential form on purpose. Fortunately, it seemed to be working. remus looked down at the boy.
He could clearly see the adult's fear. Because he didn't know what else to do, he just squeezed the man's hand a little tighter.
severus, who had been watching Harry the whole time, stood next to the child. And Blacky, Hermione, and the Weasley children also came to see the young hero. He looked at everyone gratefully.

but unfortunately that didn't seem to go down well with the others at all.
“Look, the poor children, what are they doing with the monster? Director, how can you teach someone like that? "
Harry took a deep breath.
"Without Professor Lupine, I would have lost my soul in the last Quidditch game."
Now he had at least made sure that the angry mop was silent.
"What do you mean, Mr. Potter?" Neville's grandmother wanted to know.
“What do you think, who taught us Patronus? Santa Claus?"
The second question made Lucius Malfoy smile slightly. He had also joined the werewolf, as had Hagrid.
“They're all really stupid. you have just seen that a multiple murderer and loyal Death Eater has been taken away and you are worried about a teacher, ”the politician snorted angrily.
"We're just worried about our children," said a mother.
“No, you don't. You only heard that Professor Lupine was a werewolf, then you all turned off your brains. ”Severus spoke up. he just couldn't understand the narrow-mindedness of these people.

Now Dumbledore stood up.
“My dear friends, I can reassure you all. Remus Lupine is not a threat to anyone. It's true, unfortunately, the man is a werewolf. he got sick as a child. But Professor Snape is brewing the banishing potion for him. With his help Remus is no longer a monster, but just a harmless dog. "
"A dog has teeth too," Harry whispered. he didn't like the way the director talked about one of his employees. So from above.
Severus put a reassuring hand on his young protégé's shoulder. He knew the boy's temperament. it wouldn't be good if this one freaked out. Possibly with an outbreak of wild magic.
Now, surprisingly, Molly Weasley spoke up.
“Please don't worry. if Professor Dumbledore says the man is safe, then we can trust him. You all know that man has been fighting dangerous creatures of all kinds for years. "
Harry and his friends gritted their teeth angrily. Especially since the woman's words seemed to help. But now her husband also followed suit.
“It's like with Hagrid, the man is a half-giant, but the headmaster has given us credible assurances that he is just as harmless. So he has these two beings under control. "
Now the eyes turned to the new nursing teacher.
“He's a half giant. But, they are dangerous. "
"That's right, they are absolutely brutal and only think of killing."
These and similar comments flew through the hall.
Harry's self-control was over now. He stamped his foot angrily.
“By Merlin's beard. How many of you still know Hagrid from your own school days? Besides, did you all sleep in class? Any fool can see that Hagrid is a half-giant. and one more question, has this man ever done anything to one of you? "
The boy looked angrily across the room. Some adults have had the grace to blush.
One woman giggled cautiously.
“Hagrid gave me some cookies once. does that fall under assault? "
The students burst out laughing and the parents giggled too.
When the noise subsided, Hagrid turned to Harry.
"Are my cookies really that bad?"
the boy couldn't help it, he had to hug the big bear.
"Just a little hard, when you dip them in tea they taste good," he said soothingly to the teacher. Which earned him a friendly grin.
lucius gave the parents a punishing look.
“Does that look like someone who is dangerous? And as for Professor Lupine, he taught the kids one of the heaviest wards ever. You can hardly doubt his motives. There hasn't been such a capable defense teacher here for years. "
