Hogwarts: Becoming the White Lord from Breathing

Chapter 58: Unhappy Snape

In Potions class.

The first-grade lions were uneasy, but they tried their best to cheer themselves up and not give Professor Snape the opportunity to deduct points.

Like the Slytherin students, they frequently looked at Damon, who caused all this turmoil, with completely opposite thoughts - they must snatch Damon away (keep him)!

Snape sensed the students' restlessness and uneasiness, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly. "Why are you so uneasy? Potions class doesn't need your impetuous emotions."

Ten points to Gryffindor for your poor form!"

Well, here we go.

Harry and Ron couldn't help but glare at Snape, while Hermione secretly looked at the exposed part of Snape's body - she wanted to try to find any wounds.

"Potter, how dare you look at your professor in such a disrespectful way? Another ten points from Gryffindor."

Seeing Harry trying hard to suppress his anger, Snape raised the corner of his mouth with satisfaction, and looked at Damon, who had "worked hard" to earn these 150 points, but had immediately had 20 points deducted.

The curve of his mouth narrowed.

Because Damon was just looking at him with a smile, and there was a meaning in his eyes that Snape could not fully understand. It was just like an adult looking at his own naughty child who had not grown up.

Snape's expression turned serious, and he felt that the fun had suddenly diminished a lot.

"Let's start the class!"

I don’t know if it was because Damon earned 300 points for Gryffindor, but Snape became even more unhappy with Damon and was even unwilling to let him “leave early” like before.

After Damon finished the potion, he continued to assign him new class tasks and ordered him to complete them before the end of get out of class, otherwise his points would be severely deducted!

"Why did you suddenly change your temper?"

Damon shook his head, calmly completed the second task assigned by Snape, and submitted it.

At this time, there were still three minutes left before the end of get out of class, and only about 20% of the students in the classroom had completed the classroom tasks assigned by Snape, of which Slytherin students accounted for the majority.

In the past, Snape was always happy about this, but when he saw that Damon was still doing well after completing an extra potion, he became angry again.

His lips moved, and it was hard to tell what emotion was driving those words. "It seems I've been too negligent with you. Since our Duel Prince is so talented in potions, he should be able to complete one more potion than others every time."

"Whatever you want, Professor, as long as your assignment is in the classroom, it's fine with me."

Damon's attitude was very cooperative, but this did not make Snape feel any better - he should have been able to slowly train this brat after the "Damon's sudden attack on Malfoy incident", but his plans were ruined by Augusta Longbottom.

When the get out of class was over, he threatened Damon fiercely:

"You'd better pray that the day never comes when you fall into my hands!"

"What's wrong with you, Professor?"

Damon smiled, not taking his threat seriously at all.

Snape watched Damon leave, thinking in his mind how to put this kid in detention for a semester, and did not notice that Hermione was standing behind him, looking at him hesitantly.

"Oh—he actually dared to threaten Daemon! Is it because of what happened that day in the Forbidden Forest?"

Ron and Harry came over to Hermione and together they looked at Snape with disgust.

"He is simply lawless. No, I can't stand it anymore."

Hermione's expression was calm, but her actions were as fast as lightning - she pretended to be in a hurry to finish class, and ran hard into Snape's back!

boom!
Snape was caught off guard and was knocked down by Hermione from behind.

Harry and Ron saw him twist around like a zombie, his expression cold and frozen as he looked at Hermione: "What are you doing, Miss Granger?"

"I'm sorry, Professor, I—I was in such a hurry that I accidentally fell."

Hermione secretly studied Snape's expression, trying to find a look of pain on his face.

"Ten points from Gryffindor for your recklessness!"

Snape waved his sleeves and left with a mixture of unhappiness and joy - at this rate, all the points earned by Damon would be deducted soon, and Slytherin would still be the champion of the College Cup!
"Hermione, have you found anything?"

After Snape left, Harry and Ron came to Hermione and asked without bothering to express their surprise.

"No." Hermione shook her head, a puzzled look on her face. "Snape's expression doesn't seem fake. Could it be that his injury has healed?"

"It's not impossible. He is a Potions Master after all."

"That would be terrible if that's the case. Wouldn't that mean we've lost the chance to expose him?"

"It doesn't matter! As long as we keep an eye on him, he'll eventually show his hand!"

Hermione watched Snape's departing back intently, just as Snape had watched Damon before.

Ron and Harry looked at each other and shuddered for no apparent reason.

After class, they didn't get to relax either - as exam week approached, Hermione became more and more anxious. She had to finish all her homework as soon as possible, so Harry and Ron had no choice but to accompany her to the end.

In the past, after finally getting to Friday for the holiday, they would definitely have a lot of fun until Sunday when they would go to Damon to borrow homework to copy, or start completing homework under Hermione's guidance from Saturday.

But now, as Dimon's excellence continues to gain popularity, the pressure they feel is increasing.

Facts have proved that Professor Flitwick's approach is very effective - with such an excellent example in front of them, even though he himself never persuades others to work hard, the first-year lion cubs still spontaneously become diligent, and Ron and Harry, as Damon's roommates, are even more so.

To their surprise, they actually saw Damon in the library - this had not happened for a long time.

They were used to Damon disappearing from class on Friday until Sunday, but they didn't expect to see him in the library.

"Hey, what's going on today?"

The two sat down next to Damon and asked quietly.

But without Damon saying anything, they felt they had already guessed the answer - Damon was opening the letter sent to him by the daytime owls.

Hermione quietly pulled out a chair and calmly sat down across from the three of them.

"Nothing, just checking to see if there's any message I need to reply to."

Damon explained, but the real reason why he appeared here was not because of this - now he was followed by students wherever he went, and because Snape did not allow him to leave early, it was not convenient for him to go to the Room of Requirement after class.

Fortunately, these letters will have to be dealt with sooner or later, so there is no harm.

Because there were too many letters, Damon did not plan to read them all, but only selected the most important ones to reply.

The thing that he felt he needed to treat with the most caution was the letter that transformed into a mini blue butterfly.

The owner of this letter is called Basida Bagshot.

She is a famous historian in the wizarding world and the author of "A History of Magic".

She is also the great-aunt of the first Dark Lord, Grindelwald.
