Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 927

But lately, the way he looked at Snape wasn't as warm as before.

That warmth is intangible, but it can be felt.

Now that warmth is gone, how could Sneacock not breathe?

What left me speechless was that he wasn't angry at Darren Potter, but at Harry Potter.

Looking at Harry Potter's desperate face, I almost burst out laughing.

Of course, Snape didn't spare us either.

He spun around the entire class like he was breathing fire.

Tired.

All I did was add the herbs a little late, and he emptied my potion.

I pretended to be like everyone else, crying in fear while cursing him in my heart, wishing that Darren Porter would despise him for the rest of his life.

However, my wish did not last long.

Because I heard from Hannah that Darren supposedly took a dagger for Snape during Potions class.

"His face is all cut; will he be disfigured?!"

Hannah said with a worried expression.

I nodded in agreement from the side.

Of course, I was also thinking that this might be another plot point.

It should be the scene where Harry and his friends steal Snape's potion.

But Darren was angry with Snape, so why did he take a knife for him? I don't quite understand.

But almost that afternoon, we had another potions class.

During Potions class, Snape didn't criticize anyone; he even secretly smiled to himself.

Good heavens, Snape smiled, and it was a genuine smile... I could hardly believe my eyes.

What good thing happened to him? Could it be that Lily has come back to life? I wondered to myself.

But obviously I couldn't get a real answer to this matter, so I could only pretend to be stupid and continue brewing the potion.

I've been wondering when the Duel Club will start.

Finally, on this morning, an invitation to the Duel Club was posted in Hufflepuff's common room.

Hannah and the others were very excited.

They probably assumed that Professor Flitwick would be the one to teach them dueling techniques.

But when I asked them more questions, they looked at me with strange expressions.

"How could that be? How could we possibly enjoy dueling? Don't you look forward to watching Darren duel with someone else?"

"Let me tell you, I've already come up with several outfits for Darren that are perfect for dueling, they're really cool, I think..."

Hannah and the others went off to discuss how to make Darren look even more handsome.

I watched their retreating figures, speechless with emotion.

As expected of you!

Lockhart and Snape were the ones who came to the Duel Club. Hannah and the others were quite happy to see Lockhart.

Lockhart is quite pleasing to the eye, after all.

Although everyone knows Lockhart is a good-for-nothing, Hufflepuff's focus is never on his strength.

I must say, Lockhart is as handsome as the coach.

I hope my future marriage partner will be just as handsome.

Otherwise, it will also affect the genes of the next generation.

Lockhart, just like in the original story, was sent flying. I heard the Hufflepuff students gasp in surprise.

Of course, the loudest voice came from Darren Porter.

His voice was quite loud, and he even called out "Professor," looking particularly worried.

Lockhart, that idiot, probably still thought Darren was being sincere, and stood up to continue his duel with Snape.

Even Hufflepuff's students mourned for him.

Sure enough, he was sent flying again.

As he was being blasted away, he was also hit by a barrier spell cast by Darren.

hiss.

I feel the pain for him.

However, the girls clearly didn't understand what it felt like to be hit there; they were all talking about how Lockhart was too fragile.

The boys huddled together, too afraid to speak.

This resulted in only Darren's crying voice being heard in the scene.

He probably did it on purpose.

The apology was delivered very smoothly.

Perhaps it's just to show that they're a good person.

If I were Lockhart, I would definitely praise him a few times and then stay far away from him.

Unfortunately, I am not.

Lockhart wasn't as perceptive as I was. He started threatening Darren.

He challenged Darren to a match.

And before the competition, he talked a lot about Darren's past interactions with the Slytherin students.

The conversation turned to the deaths of those students.

It's obvious he did it on purpose.

As everyone knows, that incident had a significant impact.

Darren's outward demeanor also suggested a state of utter collapse.

But he kept talking.

I noticed that many people were looking at him differently now.

Hannah had initially thought he was quite handsome, but now she clenched her little fists as if she wanted to punch him.

With Darren Porter standing there, his face pale and his green eyes filled with tears, Lockhart instantly became the target of everyone's anger.

I shook my head and sighed helplessly.

How could anyone be so reckless? Lockhart, who's always courting death, is probably planning to ambush Darren.

Unfortunately, he failed.

I suspect Darren was waiting for him to ambush him! I slapped him away with my wand.

How miserable.

No one has shown any sympathy yet.

Is this person out of their mind? I'm speechless.

Snape then threatened Lockhart, who had no choice but to stand up, presumably intending to pick on an easy target.

Cassandra raised her hand.

She covered Lockhart in moss, making him look like a green toad.

Because he was full of resentment, Lockhart started talking badly about Slytherin.

I really want to say, Professor, stop courting death.

You're speaking ill of Slytherin like this, especially since you're a writer with no background or real talent. Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up by those pure-blood nobles?

Lockhart has probably gone mad.

He kept talking.

They even criticized Cassandra.

He called all Slytherins bastards.

I saw Cassandra clench her fists.

They might be planning to make Lockhart disappear once they get back.

Her expression was all too obvious.

I mourn for Lockhart.

But to my surprise, Darren took Cassandra's hand.

He said a lot of things to defend Slytherin and Cassandra, and I saw Cassandra's face turn bright red.
