My name is Snape at Hogwarts

Chapter 34: Scaring away Peeves (Thanks to book friend 2021...3288 for the reward)

The three of them spent the lunch break in the library and left the library near one o'clock in the afternoon.

The first class in the afternoon started with Professor McGonagall’s Transfiguration class. This witch was famously strict in teaching. A senior had said this as early as the day she entered school. Therefore, whether it was for Snape, whom McGonagall knew somewhat, and the two girls who listened to the advice of their seniors, did not want to touch this bad luck.

After the three of them placed their homework in the classroom, they rushed towards the classroom with the books on transfiguration.

When they arrived at the classroom, they were stopped. The person who stopped them was not a student, but a ghost.

To be precise, it's a special elf - Peeves.

"Hey, look, what did I find?" Peeves floating in the air looked at the three of them maliciously, his black eyes full of cunning and malice. "The freshmen who just entered the school are in love, and they are still with two girls!"

"Uncle Peeves wants to teach you a lesson on behalf of others!" As it said, it took out a bunch of chalk heads from somewhere, waved its arms, and threw the chalk heads towards the three of them.

Lily and Pandora's expressions changed, and they closed their eyes subconsciously.

Snape, however, did not panic. He waved the wand he had already drawn out, and a magic barrier stood in front of the three of them, blocking all the chalk heads.This is not magic, just the basic use of magic power. This was mentioned in what Flitwick just explained this morning.

Although this kind of magic barrier is not of much use, and its defense is extremely low, it can still be used with a few small spells, not to mention the insignificant chalk head.

Peeves saw that the chalk head had not made any achievements, and a touch of pearly white appeared on his face. He seemed to be angry. He reached out with his chubby hand from behind and took out a pile of old ink bottles that he found somewhere.

"Let me show you how powerful Mr. Peeves is!" Peeves roared, and with a flick of his arm, all the ink bottles were thrown towards him. However, they were useless as they were all blocked by Snape's magic power.

Although he was not hurt, Snape was a little impatient. He pointed his wand at Peeves and said coldly: "Get out of the way, Peeves, I don't want to do anything to you, but I warned you! "

"Hey, hey, a threat? Mr. Peeves is not afraid of your threats!" Peeves made a face, and then began to greet Snape with a dirty mouth.

Snape's face darkened, he pointed the wand at Peeves, and shouted coldly: "Avada——" As he thought, a pale green light emerged from the tip of the wand, and became more and more intense. Rich.

"You..." Peeves's face changed, and his eyes were full of fear. He screamed, jumped up, and disappeared from the eyes of the three people.

"Let's go, don't be late!" Snape calmly put down his wand and took the lead towards the Transfiguration classroom.

"Severus—" Pandora bit her lower lip, hesitated, and asked, "Is the magic you were about to use just now—the Death Curse?"

Snape glanced at her and said calmly: "I don't know how to kill myself, don't worry."

"But, you obviously -" Pandora said halfway and did not continue.

"Have you forgotten what the Defense Against the Dark Arts taught?" Snape glanced at her and said casually, "Even if I know this spell, I think, unless I become a troll, I won't be able to do it." Let’s use it here!”

Pandora's face looked much better, and she looked at Snape apologetically: "I'm sorry, Severus, I misunderstood you!"

"It doesn't matter, I don't mind!" Snape shook his head, "I can't help it. If you have known him before, you should know how special Peeves is!"

"Yes, I have seen it in the book, but the explanation in the book is not very clear." Pandora nodded, "It seems that Peeves is not a ghost?"

"Yes, it is indeed not." Snape nodded, "I am afraid that no one except the principal knows what it is, including me. However, this is not an important thing. I think now he He probably doesn’t have the courage to appear in front of us.”

Pandora thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "You are right, I don't think he will have such courage!"

"What are you talking about?! I don't understand at all!" Lily interrupted at this time, looking at Snape angrily, "Also, I have never seen the magic you were about to use just now!"

"That's a fake magic. The real name of the magic should be the Death Curse, which is one of the three unforgivable curses." Pandora explained beside her.

"The three unforgivable curses?" Lily raised her eyebrows, "What are those? It sounds like a bad curse?"

"You're right, it's really bad!" Pandora explained, "The three unforgivable curses refer to the three most vicious curses recognized by the magic world. Any one of them is enough to go to Azkaban!"

"In other words, they are all black magic?" Lily understood somewhat.

"Yes, these three spells are all black magic, and they are the most evil magic among black magic!" Pandora said seriously.

"Then, what is Azkaban?" Lily asked again.

"You can understand the wizarding prisons in Britain this way." This time it was Snape who answered, "However, unlike the wizarding prisons of Muggles, those who are basically imprisoned in wizarding prisons are wizards who have made serious mistakes. , most of them are dark wizards.”

"Different countries have different wizarding prisons. The wizarding prison in the UK is Azkaban!"

"Okay, I understand!" Lily nodded clearly, then bit her lower lip and looked at Snape worriedly, "Sev, can you please not learn black magic? I'm worried that one day, you ——”

Lily didn't finish her words, but both Snape and Pandora understood what she meant.

"I promise you, I will not use dark magic easily!" Snape said softly, "However, if I encounter a last resort, I have no choice."

"Lily, you have to know that magic does not distinguish between good and bad, the most important thing is people!" Snape said solemnly, "Whether it is black magic or white magic, there is a reason for its existence. It is undeniable that black magic, regardless of Its destructive power and lethality far exceed that of white magic. I need this power to protect the people I care about!"

After hearing Snape's words, Lily didn't know what she thought of. Her little face turned red and she tilted her head to the side: "Okay, it's up to you, as long as you protect yourself!"

Snape smiled slightly and rubbed her little head.

Pandora watched from the side, with the same light shining in her eyes, her expression seemed to be - envy?

The three of them walked and chatted together, and soon they arrived at the Transfiguration Classroom...
