I abducted HP's friend on his wedding day

Chapter 16 The Hesitant Person

The Potions Master's office was always filled with mist, mixed with the lingering smell of herbs.

Professor Slughorn looked at something with dull eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

There was a click at the door, and he subconsciously looked over. The old man with a sad face couldn't help but smile when he saw the person coming.

"Good afternoon, Gust, my dear student."

Godric greeted the professor with a bright smile.

"Good afternoon, Professor."

"You're just in time, kid, I have good news for you."

Slughorn waved to Godric, motioning for him to come to him.

"What is it? Professor."

"I learned something about you from Lily. She is really worried about you and your brother."

Godric couldn't help but show a touch of emotion when he heard the news about Lily.

"She has always felt very sorry for breaking the promise after clearly promising to take in your brothers." Slughorn frowned slightly, but quickly returned to his amiable look. "She's a kind witch."

"Yes." Godric was also very emotional about this.

"If there is no news about you or your brother's parents, then you have to think about your future." As if thinking of something, Slughorn showed a regretful expression. "I'm sorry that your brother, little Mr. Brown, is a very clever man, but he doesn't like potions."

Godric smiled awkwardly.

"Occasionally, he can be naughty. Of course, that does not affect my love for him. He is excellent in other aspects." Professor Slughorn winked at Godric mischievously, not looking like he was Mind that Salazar was involved in what had happened, about him secretly encouraging the Gryffindors to break into the Slytherin common room.

Godric couldn't completely ignore it: "I'm sorry, Professor, that was Cyrus' recklessness. He really didn't think further."

"He is still young and a child. Children make mistakes sometimes. It is not a big problem. The most important thing is that I trust you, Gust. You can take good care of your family, right?"

Godric could only nod.

"But..." Slughorn changed the subject. "I think that in addition to taking good care of your brother in terms of thoughts and actions, maybe you also need some help in terms of material things."

"What do you mean?" Godric seemed to understand what the professor in front of him meant.

"If you want, I can write you a letter and arrange for you to intern with a friend of mine this summer, kid."

Godric looked surprised.

"But Professor, I thought you were just helping me find a potion pharmacy where I could work. I thought it was like this..."

Godric planned to use this summer vacation to find a place to work, hoping to earn money for him and Salazar's tuition fees for the next semester. Both of them are very proud people. When they didn't understand the situation, they could tolerate it by temporarily accepting some financial support from the Potter family and Dumbledore. However, if they had been living on the financial support of others, it would definitely be their fault. His dignity is unacceptable.

Godric had nothing to hide about his summer job, so everyone who was not a stranger to him knew about it. Some students in Slytherin who had a good relationship with him also told Godric that they would help him keep an eye on it. What a great opportunity.

Professor Slughorn, as the head of Slytherin and a professor who loves Godric very much, is not surprised to know this news.

"But..." If it's an internship, there won't be much salary, right? Godric lowered his head. "Professor, I am very grateful for the opportunity you gave me, but I..." Godric wanted to get more money. Although there was a great opportunity to study in front of him, he would definitely regret it if he missed it!

"Your talent is so endearing, Gust." Slughorn is a man of talent, and Godric's concerns are not visible at all. "Don't waste this opportunity to train with the Potions Master, kid."

Godric was naturally very excited, this was the potion master from a thousand years later! After thousands of years of evolution, the subject of potions has long since developed to an extremely high level. Even magic spells are much more sophisticated now than they were a thousand years ago.

Neither Godric nor Salazar are the kind of arrogant people. Since the development of magic in a thousand years will be more profound than that of a thousand years ago, why not take every opportunity to learn?

That is a good opportunity to strengthen yourself!

"Of course I understand your concerns, kid, but accepting a student scholarship from Hogwarts is not something you should mind. Many students have received this scholarship, and there will be no shortage of outstanding wizards among them." Slughorn seemed to have thought of something and showed a complicated expression. "I understand your self-esteem. Maybe you feel embarrassed to accept this funding, but I hope you will cherish this opportunity to learn."

"Look to the future, kid."

The old man looked at the student in front of him, and his eyes seemed to be shining with light, as if he was thinking of something else.

"And, in addition to this good news, I want to tell you another good news."

"What is it?"

"Your improved potion has been approved by the Ministry of Magic. As expected, the results will be available next month," Slughorn said. "If you pass, you'll get a bonus."

He paused briefly: "Any improvement of potions and the development of new formulas will eventually receive a special bonus. There is also a medal of honor. This medal may be just a very ordinary one, but I will try my best to help. You apply for more bonuses.”

He looked at Godric, as if he still had a lot of unfinished thoughts, and finally hid all other concerns in his heart, leaving only one piece of advice full of friendship.

"My child, I hope you cherish the talent and intelligence you have. I hope your future will be correct and not be affected by unimportant external things. Do you understand?"

Slughorn sent Godric off.

The old man who stayed in the office fell into hesitation.

"Take the right path...child..."

"Please take the right path..."
