HP in the name of Slytherin

Snape had no idea what Catherine would get out of the deal.

She wants to help him practice spells and sort out magic. According to Catherine's records of helping other people, she sometimes brings out the Slytherin family's collection of information to help them. This is something that many people can't even ask for. resources.

In the end, she also wanted to provide him with a job and give him the opportunity to practice potions and make money while practicing.

In the end, she didn't need his loyalty or anything else.

How could Slytherin have a philanthropist? How could Salazar Slytherin's daughter be so "suffering".

"I can't imagine," Snape looked at Catherine's gray-blue eyes. Her whole body was light in color, like a mysterious ghost, "What can you get from me?"

Of course he was moved, and when he asked this question, it proved that he was already moved by the proposal.

"First, whether you believe it or not, I am carrying out my father's will and helping those who deserve help," Catherine said, stretching out a slender finger, and then stretching out a second one. "Second, you are rare. Smart man, I don't want you to join Voldemort's side, as this will be detrimental to me - of course, the high probability is that I feel you are a threat to me, and I will deal with you first, which will be even more detrimental to you. Rather than letting you slowly be influenced by Free and the others are trying to win over you, why don't I take the first step, I think I can give you more than they can give you."

Snape pursed his lips slightly in response to Catherine's high praise.

Then he saw Catherine smiling and raising her third finger, "The third word, because I am short of money and you can help me work to make money for me, so I came to you?"

Snape looked at Catherine blankly, "Should I smile along with it?"

Salazar Slytherin's daughter is short of money. What a joke.

Catherine shrugged lazily.

Seeing her look like this, Snape felt that her third point was a joke... He was the only one who was really short of money. The third point proposed by Catherine was more like preserving his dignity, so this "request" ".

And he does have a shameful impulse, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, which is human nature.

"If you don't need my loyalty, how can you be sure that I won't secretly betray you." He lowered his head slightly, avoiding looking at Catherine.

Catherine reached out and patted his head, "If you really have betrayal intentions, don't say it."

Snape shook his head unaccustomedly, and was horrified to find that he was a little too close to Catherine now, and he only felt unfamiliar and uncomfortable, rather than disgusted.

Damn it! Catherine is really scary! Snape suddenly froze, motionless, as if intending to use this boring reaction to make Catherine feel bored and give up touching him.

Instead, Catherine came closer and said gently: "When you are good enough to hide it from me, then there is nothing you can do if I am not as good as others, right?"

There was a faint smile on her delicate face when she said this, and her slender figure exuded warm light surrounded by the fireplace flames and lights.

Then the warmth spread into his heart as her cool fingertips and palms fell on his head.

Snape felt that Catherine's methods might not be surpassed by him in his lifetime.

"How about it, Mr. Snape?" She called his name again in a teasing tone, caressing his head affectionately with her fingers, "Even if you think Death Eaters are more suitable for you in the future, as long as you tell me, I will let you leave safely."

She promised gently: "I will not hurt you, nor will I kidnap you because I have helped you. You are always free."

Snape suddenly loosened his grip, took a few deep breaths, and looked at Catherine again.

In her bright pupils, he could only see himself.

It's dark, like a little crow, but actually it's still very weak.

"Miss Catherine," he said, "please let me follow you."

Catherine tilted her head slightly and looked at him intently.

As soon as the words were spoken, his thoughts became completely clear. Snape felt that the boulder that had been weighing on his heart recently completely disappeared, leaving only calmness and tranquility.

Snape said seriously: "I know that you and Mulciber seem to have had some kind of ritual. If necessary, I will learn it and then come to you?"

Catherine looked at him with a smile, and tucked the hair that had fallen off due to his movements back behind his ears, leaving his face, which gradually became a little red, openly exposed to the air.

As magnanimous as his current state of mind.

Snape stopped looking at her, and Catherine smiled and asked, "How about I teach you myself?"

Snape lowered his head slightly, "My pleasure, Miss Catherine."

"This ceremony is actually a verbal contract." Catherine summoned an old book and turned it to one of the pages with her finger. "Since it is a contract, both parties have responsibilities and obligations."

Snape lowered his eyes and looked down. He read very quickly. He seemed to have read and understood a whole page in two or three minutes.

"Do you need me to explain?" Catherine asked him as he was rubbing her fingers and getting ready to move.

Snape looked at Catherine. Since it was his decision to do something, with his personality, he would naturally do his best, "I think Miss Catherine should know that I am very smart."

Catherine smiled brighter at him, waved the old book away, and raised her hand in a gesture of invitation.

Snape stood up, took a deep breath, put his right hand on his left chest to calm his noisy heartbeat, took a half step back, knelt on the ground, and opened his left arm calmly, "Severus Snape, I would like to be your squire, your knight, protect you, dedicate everything I have to you, and dedicate my loyalty...life and soul to you, Miss Catherine Slytherin."

After speaking, he bowed his head piously, closed his eyes and waited for the trial.

Haierbo sensed Catherine's mood and crawled out from the pile of food. He looked to his left at Snape, who was half-kneeling, and then at his master who looked moved.

"In the name of Catherine ape Slytherin, I accept your allegiance," Catherine tapped Snape's shoulder with her original wand, "I will grant you dignity, strength and honor, and protect you from me. Whatever you get will not be violated, and you will always have a place at my side."

Undetectable magical energy entangled the two of them, the words came from the heart, the contract took effect immediately, and a strange feeling arose in the hearts of both Catherine and Snape.

Snape looked up, and Catherine said helplessly: "A contract is called a contract when the responsibilities and obligations are almost equal. Mr. Snape, you really dare to say that."

【Waiwai? ] Haierbo shouted tentatively.

Snape heard it very clearly this time. He slowly opened his eyes wide, looked at Catherine, and then looked at Halpo under her encouraging gaze, [...Helpo? 】

[You, the little wizard, have become the master’s dependent! 】 Haierbo stood up excitedly, "You are so disgusting, Haierbo is the first one, remember it!" In front of the master, I just don’t…]

Catherine covered the little basilisk's mouth and said, [Okay Halbo, you are the most important, I understand. 】

Snape didn't feel offended at all. He only knew that he had opened the door to a new world. "Is this what the book said, that language is magical?"

Catherine glanced at him, "Aren't your arms and knees sore? You can stand up."
