HP in the name of Slytherin

The Christmas holiday was coming soon. Catherine had originally planned to attend the Malfoy family's Christmas dinner, but now she was planning to visit in advance. Naturally, she would return to Herbo Castle to prepare as soon as the holiday was over.

After just a few months of enrollment, unlike some young wizards in Slytherin who would go home on weekends, for young wizards from other colleges, the school stipulated that they could not leave school except during holidays, so they really never left campus.

It’s finally Christmas holiday, and many little wizards can’t wait for it.

Lily prepared some magic props that she could take back to show them to her parents and sisters. James also wanted to go home and receive an education in love - he was finally discovered when he secretly brought the family's invisibility cloak to school.

Sirius didn't leave. He had already foreseen that he would not be at peace when he returned home. He simply refused to do anything and would not go back until he said he would go back. He even loved so and so at the annual major event in the wizarding world - the Malfoy family's Christmas dinner. .

"Many little Slytherin wizards have gone home. If you have nothing to do during the Christmas vacation, you can go to Halbo's secret room to practice magic, or you can read in the library or the lounge. There is no need to worry about other things." Before leaving, Catherine called Severus came over to explain the matter.

Of the little wizards Catherine was familiar with, only Severus stayed at school on Christmas Day.

It is not difficult to imagine that he seemed to have some family problems when he first entered school, and Catherine did not rashly let him go to live with her at Herbo Castle.

As a retinue, living with the master is an honor, but as a young and sensitive modern little wizard, this may hurt his self-esteem.

She only took out two thick notebooks and handed them to him, "You should study these two books carefully. I will go to our potion shop on Christmas and ask you to go out for a stroll."

Severus first noticed that the material of these two books was bound by a paper-leaf-like material similar to "Psychiatric and Occlumency". Even though they were well preserved, a strange sense of time came over them.

The first notebook has no name, but it has I&K in cursive fonts in the corner, and the second notebook has a dull silver-blue cover.

"This is the notebook my brother and I took when we were studying potions. Although neither of us was very interested in potions, it was a required course at the time," Catherine pointed to the first book with a smile and recommended it. The second book, "The owner of this notebook is Ms. Helga Hufflepuff. She is one of my godmothers and was once responsible for guiding me in potions and herbalism. This is her alchemy notebook." "

Severus' eyes slowly widened when he heard the first sentence. When he heard the origin of the second book, the hands holding the two books were trembling slightly, and his breathing became lighter several times.

"Thank you, Miss Catherine. Can I copy it down?"

"Of course, some things are no longer applicable now. The main purpose is to provide an idea. I think some modern medicine refining technologies are more advanced than at the time, and some herbal medicines have become extinct. It would be better if you modify them according to the current situation."

Severus's dark eyes were visibly bright, almost sparkling: "Sometimes ideas are more important than skills. I will study it carefully. Thank you, Miss Catherine!"

What can't be done home? Severus now wants to go back to the lounge to study quietly, and then go to Salazar's secret room to practice. With Catherine's care, a crucible was set up for him in a corner of Salazar's secret room. , and also prepared sufficient herbs, and donuts are on call to take care of him...

Holidays, a quiet environment, plenty of materials, a lot of free time, doing what you like, this is heaven on earth!

Seeing that the little wizard's originally silent expression became vivid, Catherine felt relieved and said, "Take care of yourself, I will leave tomorrow."

[You little wizard, why are you just reading a book? The master has prepared a Christmas gift for you, so you should return the gift! 】Helbo wrapped around Catherine's neck and pointed at Severus, "Like me, I prepared a Christmas gift for the master early~"

Severus was now immune to Halbo's strange comparison, but what he said made sense. Severus blushed slightly and whispered to Catherine: "I have prepared a Christmas gift for you, ready for Christmas." I’ll give it to you again.”

Catherine rubbed Helbo's head and said with a smile: "This is not a Christmas gift, it is homework for the Christmas vacation. Does Helbo want it too?"

【Ouch? ] Haierbo shook his head violently, [No, no, no! 】

It thought Catherine was telling the truth, so it quickly climbed off of Catherine, [Helpo is hungry, go eat~]

As long as it says it is hungry and wants to eat, the owner will not complain about it. The most important job of Haierbo is to eat.

Severus pursed his lips tightly to prevent his smile from being too obvious. When Helbo passed by him, the two little Helbo's, who were still squeezing each other, flicked Severus's tail, and Severus poked Helbo. one time.

Obviously the relationship is much better.

Looking back, he saw Catherine watching the interaction between the two of them with a smile on her face. Severus quickly picked up the book and said, "I-I'm going back first. You have to leave tomorrow morning, so get some rest early."

The tips of the ears were red.

"Good night Severus." Catherine smiled and waved.

Severus mumbled "good night" and left. Helbo poked his head out after eating a cake, but there was still a little wizard there.

It scratched its head with the tip of its tail and whispered: "Did the little wizard come here just now?" Or did Halpo remember it wrong? 】

[He came and left,] Catherine helped Halbo remove the empty plates, [Helbo didn’t feel it, which means your recent practice has been good. 】

Haierbo stood up proudly, [Haierbo practices seriously every day! Haierbo can now catch the little wizard at will~]

Severus revealed in a low voice: [You have eaten all the magic. I really can't do anything to you. 】

Without explaining this, what if Miss Catherine thinks that he doesn't work hard or is not good, damn Haierbo.

Haierbo shouted: [Why did the little wizard's voice come out? It must be that he did not practice Occlumency well! 】

[Oh, you can’t feel what I’m thinking at all. I’m using it, but you’re not. 】

Of course, there are some "troubles" in the relationship between the two little ones, but they actually learned to "quarrel"...

[Master...] Haierbo turned his head to look for support, but unexpectedly saw the smiling master, who threw himself into Catherine's arms with a cry, [Master~Master~Helbo likes Master the most~Master also likes Haierbo the most, right? 】

[Yes, yes, you make me covered in cake. I still like you. You little guy, go take a bath for me.] Catherine stood up holding Haierbo who was covered in cream. [Severus should also go to bed early and stop reading. . 】

【oh? Haierbo will keep an eye on the little wizard. If he secretly reads a book, Haierbo will tell his master~]

Severus coughed dryly and disappeared quickly.

The Hogwarts Express came to pick up the little wizards home in the morning, and Catherine returned to Herbor Castle in the evening.

After months of retrieving a lot of memories, now looking at this small silver-white castle under the sunset water, and seeing the house elf Amy who guided her when she woke up, bowing and standing at the entrance of the courtyard to greet her, Catherine felt uncomfortable in her heart. Word.

Amy was wearing Hogwarts-style clothes, and a collar button depicting four animals was the Hogwarts emblem that looked like a donut.

Using magic to explore her body, there were obviously traces of ancient forbidden magic on this elf's body.

She was probably the one Catherine brought back to the castle when she woke up last time and came into contact with Voldemort.

In the castle kitchen, in addition to cabinets engraved with runes and magic, there are also several large refrigerators. They are obviously not from a thousand years ago, but are from a few decades ago.

What exactly happened at that time? When she woke up for the second time, she shouldn't have lost her memories from decades ago, and her body shouldn't be the same as that of a six-year-old...

This familiar and secret forbidden magical atmosphere clearly belonged to Salazar.

As long as she meets Voldemort, she will probably know all this...
