"Mr. Prince, I suppose you'd rather stay with your brother?" Albus Dumbledore asked, turning to Severus.

Severus' face was a little pale, and he nodded reluctantly, "Of course, Headmaster Dumbledore."

Dumbledore nodded and planned to leave the medical wing.

At this moment, the door of the medical wing was opened again, and Horace Slughorn ran in while wiping the sweat from his brow, "Oh, Merlin, what happened? Monigus how's it going?"

The moment Severus saw Horace Slughorn he could hardly contain himself from throwing his fist out, asking him what he had done to his brother.

In the end, he just gritted his teeth and even saluted Slughorn, "Dean Slughorn."

He could only be thankful that now Philomena, like all the other Slytherins in the hospital wing, had fallen into a deep sleep after Madam Pomfrey had given her a drink of the Death Water.

Horace Slughorn's eyes twinkled when he saw Severus, and he walked quickly to Monigus' bed.

Seeing the pale boy sleeping peacefully on the hospital bed, Horace Slughorn looked a little complicated.

He admired Monique Prince's talent in potions very much, and he did treat the boy as his student during their time together.

But now, his favorite student is lying in the medical wing for unknown reasons.

"How is Monigus now, Albus?" Horace Slughorn turned to look at Albus Dumbledore.

It's just that his eyes have changed a little from before.

Albus Dumbledore's eyes flickered, "It's not very good, the little guy's magic cycle has become very fragile because of the magic riot."

When Horace Slughorn heard this, his eyes widened in disbelief, "How is it possible? Do you know what a talented wizard he is?"

Immediately, as if thinking of something, Horace Slughorn took a step forward, staring closely at Albus Dumbledore's eyes, and whispered, "What did you do to him?"

Although Severus stood a little far away, he still vaguely heard this sentence, which made his face even paler.

"Oh, no no no. Horace, I think you have misunderstood. Mr. Prince's magic riot happened in the Slytherin common room. You can ask his brother, Severus Pu Lince." Albus Dumbledore waved his hand.

Horace Slughorn looked at Albus Dumbledore suspiciously, and finally calmed down under his reminder.

This is indeed not the place to talk.

Now that Albus Dumbledore denied that he shot Monigus, what exactly caused his magical riot?

He checked the office specifically, and Monigus did not touch the book, and the photo ball he left in the office clearly reflected the scene in the office at that time.

After Monigus found no one in the office, he first observed the status of the potion at the potion workbench for a while, and then he looked at the furnishings in the office curiously like an ordinary child.

At this time, Monigus did find the book that Albus Dumbledore had given him, but he glanced at the title of the book and ignored it.

Obviously, the kid was only interested in Potions, not the Dark Lord at all.

This shows that all of Albus Dumbledore's guesses are wrong!

And these irresponsible guesses may be what caused his outstanding students to live like a squib in the future.

Finally, Horace Slughorn straightened his wizard robes, and said to Dumbledore coldly: "Albus Dumbledore, you owe me an explanation."

Slughorn then left the hospital wing.

Albus Dumbledore stared at Horace Slughorn's back for a long time before being interrupted by Severus.

"Principal Dumbledore?" Severus called.

"Oh, Mr. Prince," Dumbledore pushed his glasses, "please stay here with your brother, I will personally explain this matter to the old Mr. Prince."

Severus nodded.

Dumbledore then left the hospital wing.

Severus walked to Moniques' bed and sat down slowly, stretched out his hand to pin the messy hair on his forehead behind his ears, and said worriedly: "Money, what happened to you?"

Severus remembered being so distraught for a while before Monigus came back that he couldn't help but yell at two first-year snakes who were playing Wizard Chess and seemed a little rambunctious out of joy.

And when Monigus walked into the doorway of the common room, Severus could also feel Monigus' depression and restraint.

"I think Headmaster Dumbledore can tell me, why are you so eager to find me at Hogwarts?"

Dominic Prince appears in Dumbledore's headmaster's room through the fireplace.

An exquisitely fitted black wizard robe, with a gorgeous brooch on the chest, and diamond cufflinks shining on the cuffs.

With a head of white hair combed back neatly, holding a delicate cane in his hand, the whole person looks noble and capable.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Prince." Albus Dumbledore stood up and held out a hand to Dominic.

Dominic paused for a moment, but still shook the hand.

After the two were seated, Dominic ignored the honey tea that Albus Dumbledore had specially recommended for him.

"I think, Principal Dumbledore, you can explain to me why you specially invited me here." Dominic looked at Albus Dumbledore indifferently.

As a Slytherin, it's normal to dislike the headmaster of Gryffindor, even if he's an excellent wizard.

Albus Dumbledore fell silent. He sat back on his big chair wearily, and placed his hands in a tower shape on his stomach. "I'm sorry, Mr. Prince."

Because of Albus Dumbledore's opening remarks, Dominic's heart tightened slightly.

"Mr. Monique Prince just had a magic riot in the common room of Slytherin College. Maybe he won't be able to use magic anymore." Albus Dumbledore said in a low voice.

"What?" Dominic was shocked to stand up when he heard this, and even knocked down the chair behind him.

Dominic slapped Albus Dumbledore's large desk heavily, "Albus Dumbledore, what are you kidding?"

Albus Dumbledore sighed slightly, "Mr. Prince, I understand you very well. But I'm telling the truth, Mr. Prince Jr. is still lying in the hospital wing."

Dominic shook his whole body as if he had been hit by something, and said weakly, "Take me to see him."

Albus Dumbledore nodded silently, got up and walked to the medical wing first.

Dominique clenched the cane in his hand, and followed with some staggering steps.

"Grandfather." The moment Severus saw Dominic, he seemed to have found the backbone.

He seldom expresses his feelings, but for the first time, he threw himself into Dominic's arms, and finally found an outlet for his turbulent emotions all night, and cried in Dominic's arms.

"Sev, don't cry. Let me see Moni first." Dominique stretched out his arms to hug his little grandson, but his eyes were fixed on the pale and weak grandson on the hospital bed.

Severus slowly stabilized his out-of-control emotions, and withdrew from Dominic's arms, his red eyes let people know how sad he was.

Dominique walked quickly to Monigus's hospital bed, pulled out his wand and cast a spell to check Monigus' body.

Looking at the test results reflected by the spell, Dominic's face was very ugly.

If effective treatment cannot be carried out as soon as possible, given the degree of destruction of Monigus's current magic circle, it is very likely that he will become a squib for the rest of his life.

After thinking for a while, Dominic turned and looked at Albus Dumbledore: "I need to go back to Prince Manor. There may be something in the family collection that can help Mony. However, I hope that after I return , Principal Dumbledore can give me a reasonable explanation why my grandson is lying here lifeless like now."

Albus Dumbledore nodded helplessly, which was why he asked the patriarch of the Prince family instead of Monigus Prince's parents.

If you want to keep Moniques Prince's magical power, perhaps only the ancient potion family, the Prince family, may have some solutions.

Looking at Dominic Prince's face now, maybe there is really a way.

He also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although he didn't know if Monigus' current situation had anything to do with his plan, he still didn't want to ruin such a little wizard.

Especially when Horace Slughorn talked about the excellence of Monique Prince several times in front of him, and even disrupted their plans on his own initiative.

This also made Albus Dumbledore see that Monigus Prince had a place in Horace Slughorn's heart.

If the child is ruined like this, then Slughorn will definitely have a grudge against him, and then he will face the completely out-of-control Slytherin house.

Then it's not worth the loss.

Dominic strode out, he still needs to use the fireplace in the principal's room.

He turned around suddenly, "Please take care of my little grandson, I don't want Sev to be in any danger before Moni wakes up."

Albus Dumbledore immediately assured: "Don't worry, Mr. Prince, I will take good care of him."
