My name is Snape at Hogwarts

"Bud, give me the information I prepared yesterday!"

"Yes, my master!"

Taking the information handed over by the house elf, Snape walked out of the dormitory.

Yes, house elf, this was Kingsley's gift to Snape.According to him, there were too many of these little things in the House Elf Resettlement Office of the Ministry of Magic, where one of his uncles worked, and Snape was willing to accept this thing to relieve his uncle's burden.

Snape naturally understood that it was good to listen to this. Although house elves were not a big commodity, they did not have a bunch of idle ones like Kingsley said.

If you look at Newt Scamander, you will know that he has worked in this department for two years. He basically goes to work every day, dazes or reads, and then gets off work. Nothing happens in between. He has not really worked in the office a few times in two years. , it can be seen that idle house elves are very rare.

In the kitchen, when Kingsley talked about this matter with Snape, Snape originally refused. He didn't want to owe such a big favor. He knew that it was easy to repay money but hard to repay favors.

Unexpectedly, the next day, a house elf came to the door by himself, holding in his hand the certificate of the house elf's resettlement office. Snape's name was clearly written on it, even if Snape threw it to this little guy. A piece of clothing and a favor were owed, so in desperation, Snape had no choice but to accept this special gift.

Although Snape was a little unhappy at being forced to give a bunch of gifts, he had to say that these gifts were indeed very useful.Everything in life is taken care of in an orderly manner by this little guy. Even if it is something written down casually, it will help categorize it.

After trying for a day, Snape happily gave the house elf a name - Bard, a name recorded in "History of Magic", one of Merlin's knights, also known as Balthazar.

Giving a name to a house elf is the completion of the house elf's recognition ceremony, and the magical contract engraved in their blood will be completed.

Speaking of naming, Snape also mentioned the name magic. After writing it down in a memo, he continued to study the knowledge of ghosts.

I have to say that house elves are indeed very good helpers. In addition to taking care of people in daily life, they can also be competent assistants in some magic experiments.

Snape tried to ask Bard to brew some potions, and the results proved that it was completely feasible for house elves to brew potions.

In short, having such a little guy was of great help to Snape.

After Flitwick learned that Snape had a house elf, although he felt a little surprised, he was more happy for Snape.He was not polite to Snape, but said directly that house elves could deliver some letters faster and more timely.

Snape said very grandly that Bard could regard Flitwick as his other master, which made Flitwick quietly moved.

As for Bard, he has no objections. The first reason is that the master's orders are above all else, and the second reason is the values ​​​​of house elves. House elves who can take on more work are the real ones. A good house elf, Snape's order was simply a blessing to Bard. Bard was moved to tears at the time.

"Put the information I wrote down yesterday into order. I hope to see when I come back that they are no longer a mess." Before going out, Snape ordered Bud.

"I will, Master! Bard is an excellent house elf!" Bard said loudly with his thin chest puffed out, his eyes full of pride.

"I have never doubted this." Snape curled up his lips, left a few words, and walked out of the dormitory. Without looking at him, he knew that Bard was moved to tears at this moment.

Okay, does this mean that I have become what I once hated?Snape laughed to himself and then put the thought behind him.

"Hey, Sev!" A familiar voice appeared behind Snape. Snape turned his head and saw Lily and Pandora walking out of the room.

"Good morning." Snape greeted.

"Good morning." Pandora responded softly, staring at Snape with her big eyes, the emotion in her eyes almost overflowing.

"You haven't been with us for a long time, Sev!" Lily pouted, her resentful eyes falling directly on Snape's face, "I really don't know what you are busy with."

"Just a few small things." Snape said lightly, and then looked at them, "Are you going for a picnic?" He noticed that the two of them were not wearing school uniforms, but wearing regular clothes.

"You haven't forgotten, have you?" Lily looked at Snape strangely, "Today is Halloween!"

Is it already Halloween? !Snape suddenly realized that if Lily hadn't said anything, he really wouldn't have noticed that the time had come.Every day was spent in class and studying magic. Even Hagrid's material identification was brought over by Bud and given to him for identification. The date and the like had long been blurred in his mind.

"By the way, the school has informed us that there is a masquerade party tonight. Let's attend it together!" Lily suddenly thought of this, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Snape expectantly.

"Masquerade?" Snape remembered. Speaking of which, this is also a tradition of Hogwarts. Every year on Halloween, there will be such a dance. In Snape's opinion, wizards hold masquerades. It's still a little strange, maybe they are looking after young wizards from Muggle families.

"I'm not sure." Snape thought for a while and replied hesitantly, "I will go if time permits."

"Okay!" Lily nodded with some disappointment.

"Don't be like this, Lily." Pandora pulled her and whispered in her ear, "Sif must be looking for Professor Flitwick. You know, he always likes to go there. However, yesterday, Professor Flitwick has said that he will attend today, and I think Sif will definitely come too."

The more Pandora spoke, the brighter Lily's eyes became, and she kept nodding her head while listening.

"That's right!" Lily said excitedly, glanced at Snape secretly, and murmured quietly to Pandora.

Snape looked at the two little girls gathered together and shook his head helplessly.He did hear some of their words, some that he couldn't recognize, but he didn't care. If it wasn't necessary, he really didn't bother to go to a dance or the like.

"You guys talk first, I'll go find Professor Flitwick."

"Go, go!" Lily glanced at him with a smile, and opened the door specially for him. This made Snape a little strange, but he still didn't think much and went straight to the eighth floor.

He also wanted to hand this newly compiled information to Flitwick.
