Professor hp snape wants me to drop out

Chapter 35 Articles of Association

"The Pumpkin Devourer won this season." Facing the sea breeze, Sierra said loudly, "I don't know what Draco is doing. Obviously, the Dragon Club needs one more person-such a big advantage! They can still lose!"

It was sunset at this time, the orange sky above and the white waves caressing the hull of the boat should have been an excellent background for chatting, but the two people on the side of the boat sat and stood one after another, the distance was too far and the wind was too strong, Severus do not want to talk.

Looking at Sera, who was holding the railing with his back to him, sitting with his feet hanging overboard, Severus felt that he must have been blown stupid by the wind on the road, and now he was standing here with a hand in his hand. She is holding a crystal ball.

What an exhausting day it was.

Auckland Airport is located in the north of New Zealand, so after Sera learned that he could fly and fly faster than her, she turned into a dragonfly and got into his pocket, forcing him to fly across half of the New Zealand mainland to the south with things coast.

As soon as he got off the plane, before recovering from the uncomfortable 25 hours of Muggle travel, Severus was forced to fly by himself for nearly an hour, and he was almost exhausted when he landed. Without further ado, he drank a bottle of potion.

However, in front of them is the endless sea.

In fact, the picture is very beautiful. The summer in the southern hemisphere has blue sky, white clouds, and clear sea water. British people who have lived in cold, humid, and cloudy weather for a long time should feel happy and relaxed when they come to this kind of place, but only Sierra, who has transformed into a human form, can. Mood let out a "wow!" and happily took off his shoes and buried his feet in the sand.

There was only a touch of despair in Severus's heart.

He really can't fly!no more!

Severus secretly made up his mind, if Serra dared to continue to give orders like "let's fly over there", he would - he would just Apparate and run away!

That's right, run away, he can do it.He won't encounter a split body, and leaving Sera alone here will definitely not cause problems.

The two walked one after the other on the deserted golden beach. Under Severus' protest, Sera didn't say that she was going to fly, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, she said that the new plan was boating.

Severus stopped immediately after hearing this, and thought blankly where he should go to rest for the night, and practice his running plan the next day.

Sierra took two steps and found that he hadn't followed, kicked the sand at him to urge him, and then laughed knowingly.

At that time, her black hair was messed up by the wind, and under the sunlight at noon, the thick dark color was thinned out, and it no longer looked depressed, but instead gave her a fluffy and vibrant feeling.The sight made Severus realize that, in fact, he was on board and had no choice.

He can only continue walking with her, even if what awaits him is probably the fate of exhaustion...

Selah cast a spell on the surface of the sea, and an ice boat emerged, she jumped in lightly, and Severus followed silently and stepped onto the boat to sit opposite her, putting the suitcase between them, To their knees—yes, in a boat smaller than the one Hogwarts freshmen entered in.This has to be dated to the Year of the Monkey?

However, out of his understanding of Sera, he didn't object immediately, because she was probably teasing him.

And luckily, that's true.Sierra still knew how to feel sorry for her companion. She cast the magical magic again, and the outlines of eight dolphins appeared in the water-then these magic dolphins rushed out quickly pulling their boat.

Watching the dolphins made of water jumping out of the sea one after another, Severus finally relaxed, guessing that this was probably the magic she had learned from her past travels.

Finally, it took another afternoon, and they caught up with the supply ship before dinner.When boarding the ship, both of them were blown a little out of order by the wind, Severus was in a trance, and Sela was overexcited.

There is a big difference between a freighter and a passenger ship.The deck of this huge ship is full of colorful and huge containers, which looks terrible-it doesn't look like a place for people to live.They hadn't eaten for nearly a day, and both of them felt a little hungry. They decided not to spend any more time looking for a cabin, and directly picked an empty space surrounded by three containers and put out the tent.

They went in for some sandwiches and a glass of wine, and Serra suggested coming out to watch the sunset.

Severus was very reluctant at the time, all he wanted to do was wash off the sticky sea salt and sand that was making him sick from this rough trip, and go to sleep.

But Sierra pushed the crystal ball into his arms without any explanation.

——Just like now, seeing that he didn't answer, she simply grabbed his robe that was blown onto her body by the wind, and then looked at him with her focused gaze that could suck people in.

Severus had to sit next to her - all to keep the cloak from being ripped off.

She then smiled and rolled up his black robe and hugged him into her arms.Severus thought she was laughing silly.

"Take a look. This is probably the last night of our vacation." She didn't continue the topic just now, but looked up at the sky.When the ship sailed into the Antarctic Circle, they only had daylight.

Severus looked up too.The viewing position chosen by Sierra is facing the west, and at this time the orange-red sunset has been mostly buried in the black-blue sea water.When watching a sunset, people's eyes are always more attracted to the warm sun and the magnificent clouds nearby, but Severus found that, at some point, he would subconsciously raise his eyes a little higher—to look at that The night sky that has quietly deepened the color and is covered with stars.

"Are you looking at the stars?" Sera's voice sounded ethereal.

Today's weather is fine, the sky at this moment is probably inherently azure blue mixed with the red of the setting sun, and rarely presents an unusually beautiful purple, with many bright silver stars twinkling in it.Severus couldn't help but glance at Sera - it was indeed a deep purple almost exactly the same color as her irises.

"Hmm." He replied in a low voice.

Her eyes are really beautiful.In fact, as early as their first meeting, these eyes left a deep impression on him.

Just like at this moment, Selah's "last night" somehow touched him, and made Severus, the always too harsh realist, have a romantic idea for no reason-she was like this Night is the last opportunity for him to enter a sweet dream in the starry sky.

"Do you have a feeling," she stared at the starry sky, "someone very important in your life has left, and you want to go with her too."

"..." Caught off guard, Severus immediately thought of Lily, and the past was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, making him speechless.

"I used to." Sela's voice was silky like a silk scarf, and Severus felt a little relieved.

Severus thought that she must have felt that way before she knew there was Hogwarts.

"Then one day I figured it out." She looked at him with a lonely expression, but also with a touch of joy, "I miss her, but I don't need to find her, I should let her come to me. I I will not let her take away my life force, instead, I will draw strength from memory."

"A lot of Muggle fairy tales say that people become stars after they die, and I don't think that's unreasonable. She's there, and as long as I'm around, she'll be a star."

Severus felt his eyes moist for a moment.

He knew that she wasn't necessarily hinting at his affairs, she just had some thoughts of her own and wanted to share them with him.

Many people fall in love with a Ravenclaw, often because they have a certain detached temperament that can make people forget their troubles.

This also roughly applies to Serra.

The difference is that Serra is more about bringing him a different perspective on the world.

Selah was only sentimental for a short moment, and then she was alive again--this was seen in the sudden lively movement of her body.She twisted her body and rubbed towards him like a caterpillar, destroying the slightly heavy atmosphere without any scruples.Obviously, she has something to talk about again, or there is something interesting that she just didn't finish, and she can't hold back.

It wasn't the first time she'd done it anyway, and Severus suspected she couldn't read air at all.Perhaps for her, any atmosphere makes no difference.

"Listen, I'll tell you about this. The reward spell for the winning camp, I was going to leave it up to the losing camp to decide. I'll tell them that I have a practical new spell, and a simple one for mocking and provoking, It's up to them to vote on which one I will announce." Sera moved closer to Severus with a smug smile, "It's rare to have so many people under my command, I really want to do some experiments with them."

"...It's very your style." Severus was successfully led away by her, and after thinking about it, he was a little interested in how those little wizards would choose, "But, why 'intention'?"

"Because I haven't prepared any practical new spells at all." Sera said, "I've been researching space magic during this time."

"My idea is that if these children can really give up a small profit for a while and make a more farsighted choice-I will announce that they have defeated the devil, and my surrender is the reward this time." Confident and stunned, Sera laughed as she talked, and Severus's cloak was shaken by her, "And I'm going to tell them this will be the rule in the future, so that they think it's possible for them to get the spell Yes, it’s just that I was lucky this time, and defeated me in one fell swoop.”

She just wanted to play tricks at no cost.

"It's an even better idea. Next year you can hopefully get rid of the club for good."

"Huh?" Sera was stunned, thinking of something: "You said that..."

Severus also paused, he was only joking subconsciously, and he felt that Serra himself was not very interested in duels, so he said that - but Serra will graduate next year, if there is no such "career" As a concern, will she leave Hogwarts?

"Next year I have to prepare for the NEWTs exam. The Dueling Club can indeed be handed over slowly. Obviously this should be the job of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor - I hope Remus can do it for a long time."

"...Where are you planning to go after graduation?" He said hesitantly.

"I don't know. Let's see how Albus arranges it."

——Yes, there is still this stubble.Severus was relieved that they'd have to work together anyway.As for the future—if there is a future—to be honest, he wouldn’t be willing to stay in school as a professor if he wasn’t forced by life.

At the end of this world, even the trivial things in school are stained by the ancient ice, and he talks about them as if talking about other people's things, without any trouble in his heart; in fact, the only real thing around him is , the only thing he needs to care about is her.

The two quietly admired the clear starry sky that is hard to see in the UK for a while, and when the night was cold, they returned to the small tent.Thanks to the magic, the tent is small on the outside, but inside it has enough space for two people to move around.

After the novelty of first arrival wears off, life on board becomes monotonous.Sierra spends a lot of time watching the sea, staring in a daze, and playing with the water with a magic wand. Occasionally, the two of them will fish together and barbecue on the container.Severus hadn't had such close contact with Muggle technology for a long time, and he was a little disgusted at first, staying in the tent and didn't want to go out.However, under the infection of Sera, he gradually became more comfortable-Serra is a good travel companion who can drive the atmosphere.

Severus finally had a chance to take stock of the food and equipment the two of them were carrying. He dug out what Serra had brought, and was finally relieved to conclude that there was more than enough; For ice exploration, the travel advice given by the crystal ball is just to persuade them to camp more like Muggle explorers, and the number of tents carried by the two is enough to do this.All in all, all went well and nothing seemed to be in danger.

After entering the Antarctic Circle, the sky never darkened again.Everyone who comes to the poles for the first time will be shocked by this. The sun always hangs high above the head like an incandescent lamp, but it does not bring warmth. On the contrary, the temperature here is often minus [-] degrees or even lower.For the two wizards, nostalgic nights can be imitated by magic in tents, but in the face of such severe cold, the heat preservation spell is not enough, they can only wear down jackets to warm up, secretly envious of the Muggle power grid and air conditioning.

Being a wizard has its pros and cons, but there are more benefits.All the way to the south, the surrounding sea gradually froze, leaving only the passage for cargo ships opened in advance by icebreakers.Serra then began to transform her magic on the ice, and finally conjured ice sleds and sled dogs, which she happily announced to her companions as their means of transportation for the next few days.

That's fun that Muggles don't get!

Severus didn't comment on that, but after actually riding in the sled, he cast a spell to add a windshield.Serra commented that this was the equivalent of adding a cover to a convertible, very "British", and asked whether he had rheumatism, given that he had lived in the cellar for a long time and did not like to open the fireplace.

Severus lit a fire in the car immediately - the flames didn't melt the ice car, proving how good he was at burning.

Although it was just a joke when Sierra tricked him into talking about penguins, there are indeed the most creatures in Antarctica.Serra says there are probably 5000 or [-] million penguins here.In the process of driving on the ice, at first they had the leisure to stop and watch the naive Adélie penguins jumping into the water one by one, but then they gradually ignored it—like many wild animals, the penguins didn’t care because As clean as living on ice is, the fact that they... stink too.

It can only be seen from a distance, not played with.

Clearly, they weren't looking for this ubiquitous animal.Severus asked Selah what they were here for, but Selah couldn't tell, they just kept going to the extreme.

It doesn't matter, at this time he already felt that even if he just wanted to see the scenery and relax, it would be a worthwhile trip.During this period of time, what he saw every day was white snow covering his entire field of vision, gem-like ice, dazzling sun halos, and shadows circling under his feet. In the darkness of the future, these would become his beacons of light.

After they had set down the fourth and final tent and walked for several hours, both felt some sort of magical wave at the same time.

Two volcanoes can be seen nearby, and snow-like white mist emerges from the craters. The huge creature swims lightly in the cloud-like mist, and in the blink of an eye, it traveled a very long distance and appeared in front of their eyes.

This is a magical creature shaped like a whale, but its pectoral fins are longer, almost like wings—it is indeed very similar to the legendary "Kunpeng".It has no scales and instead has large white undercoats with light gray spots.Not feathers, which is kind of weird, Severus thought.Birds and fish are oviparous, and this creature looks like them in habits, but it has the characteristics of mammals.

It came to rest above them, casting a huge shadow.

Although it seemed harmless so far, Severus instinctively drew his wand in a defensive position.The pair's sled disappeared and the suitcase fell to the ground.He wasn't sure if Serra did it, or the creature.

In fact, Sierra had no time to pay attention.She wanted to fly the sled into the sky so she could see the creature's eyes, but found she just couldn't.She wanted to tell Severus, but the sudden voice in her head stopped her.The voice murmured softly. She couldn't understand the content, but somehow understood its meaning.

Serra tried to control the crystal ball to float upwards—it worked this time, and she was finally able to see the creature's face.

It has huge golden eyes set on one face like a primate.

"...It wants my blood." After looking at each other, she understood what it meant.

Severus nodded slowly, and took out a crystal bottle ready.

Serra didn't take it.She conjured up an ice knife and cut heavily on the pulp of her left index finger. The bone was deep enough to see the bone in the wound. The blood oozing out was like a retrograde hourglass, floating upward from her hand, and a thin blood line connected to her. Between the creature and the creature above, the blood disappeared out of thin air after touching the belly of the creature.

It stands to reason that the fingertips wouldn't bleed much, and it wouldn't hurt the root, but it didn't take long for Selah to become abnormally weak, and she knelt down unbearably, and she floated where Severus couldn't see. The raised crystal ball is also swaying.

It was as if the creature was sucking her life and magic through this umbilical cord.

It is so huge and its strength is unfathomable. In fact, they should have been afraid - people have the instinct to fear giants; but they let down their vigilance because of its generous and harmless appearance.

Now look at what it's doing - the same thing as a dementor!

Severus froze in place.He almost suspected that she was going to die soon, and he suppressed this thought severely; he wanted to cast a spell on it to interrupt this silent encroachment, but found that he could not move as if he had been petrified - he could still move just now!

The thing seemed to be able to detect his thoughts, and it was stopping him.

Severus tried to clear his mind, telling himself "I just wanted to hold her" over and over - and he was able to move again.He immediately knelt down and hugged Sera, and she closed her eyes tightly, as if she was in great pain.

Is that what it's for?It could have destroyed both of them outright, but in this way...what's so special about Sera's blood to it?

In Severus's confusion, the "umbilical cord" in the air suddenly disappeared, and it flew up into the sky, hovering above their heads, as if digesting the delicious food just now.

Serra's crystal ball crashed into the ice with a loud bang.Severus took the exhausted girl into his arms, let her lean on his shoulder, and fed her the potion from the suitcase.

"It's okay... don't worry..." Sera's voice was as thin as a gnat, and she stopped after taking a sip of the medicine, picked up the empty crystal bottle that he dropped on the ground with trembling hands, and raised her hand again.Severus' eyes followed her movement, and then he saw some glowing golden dust falling from the sky, twisting and converging into liquid, rushing towards Sera's hand.

Huge creatures are still swimming happily in the sky.That's what it had exchanged for her blood?

Sela struggled to show a smile, as if her suffering was over, and Severus relaxed a little when he saw that - but at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The golden liquid somehow didn't enter the bottle, but got on Serra's wrist - a black bracelet suddenly appeared there, and the golden liquid split above it, turning into a puff of black smoke and a puff of white Smoke; the black smoke melted into the bracelet, turning the gray ring ominously black; the white smoke escaped - and then, their suitcases exploded!

It doesn't matter anything else—the key is that the fresh water they stored in the box rushed out, and as soon as it touched the outside world, it turned into ice needles all over the sky. Severus quickly cast an armor spell to protect the two; Endlessly, the creature above the head seemed to be startled by the explosion, it let out a piercing howl, and then swooped down towards them!

——It broke through the ice layer on the ground!

Both of them trembled uncontrollably, and the close-range terrifying shock gave them a huge shock - luckily it didn't hit them directly!But before the two of them could rejoice, something even more terrifying happened: Accompanied by a loud rumbling noise from the depths of the ground, the hot magma spurted out from the huge hole that was close at hand without giving them any time to react. !

— Here's a volcano under the ice!

It turns out that creatures can live in lava!

Sera's state at this time was still barely able to support the appearance of her followers, but she actually used a few Silent Flying Charms first, hurriedly rescued a few things scattered on the ground, and stuffed them into the pockets of herself and Severus ——He was about to die of anger. At this moment, she still had the mood to care about it? !

Now he can't run away with her!

Red lava spewed out from the ground with claws and teeth, like an awakened evil monster; the nearby ice surface was also shaking, and it was estimated that the place under their feet would also crumble or melt in a short time; in desperation, Severus couldn't imagine In a better way, he released another powerful armor body, and a steady stream of magma hit the transparent protective cover he propped up. He hugged Sera who fainted with one hand, and tightly held him with the other. Excessive consumption made him spit out a mouthful of blood, but he had no way to retreat, and could only use his own magic power to fight against the terrible volcanic eruption that was approaching.

……

Sierra woke up from the cold.

She found herself lying on the ice, her clothes scorched, her wand and crystal ball scattered around.

The two former volcanoes are still visible in the distance, but here in a different orientation.

There was nothing around, and Severus was nowhere to be seen.

Sierra sat up all of a sudden!

Where did he go?Why would I be thrown here? !

At this moment, Sera felt that the air around her was sucked away.Many thoughts flashed through her mind, was there something wrong with her estimation of the severity of the explosion, or was his magic power limited?At that time, it was obvious that he was in the better condition among the two of them. If only one person could escape from Ascension, it should be him. Why is he not even leaving any information when he is in good condition now?Dizzy with extreme fear and remorse—

...is he still alive?

She grimaced and grabbed the crystal ball, but it didn't resonate with Severus - it meant they were too far away now, or he... didn't exist anymore.

Seeing the white snow all over her body, Sierra felt dazed, lost all strength, and the crystal ball fell to the ground.

... Fortunately, she soon realized something.

From the time she woke up until she sat up, she didn't feel physically uncomfortable except for the nervous twitch that was caused by the fear of Severus' death.The volcano erupted right in front of her, and she couldn't have been injured at all, and her clothes were burned.So, she should have been treated when she passed out.

If Severus still had the strength to heal her, then he couldn't have died from the lava.

Breathing back into her chest, Sera stood up, finding her own magic restored.After an explosion, this state is too good to be true.She tidied up her clothes and conjured up an ice pony to ride on.

She's going to their camp first.The disappearance of Severus made Sera very depressed, her mind was blank, and it was difficult to think - she even forgot that she could Apparate directly.She wanted to calm herself down by hurrying.

As much as she'd hoped to see Severus at the camp, she knew that was unlikely.Based on her physical condition, Sierra can only conclude that someone helped them.

First, probably the behemoth.This possibility is very small, because it likes equal exchange, of the two of them, it is only interested in her blood - and it will not want a second time for what it has obtained.

Sela looked at the smooth palm of her left hand, the black cross made of diary ink was gone.She almost understood why the series of accidents just now happened—after all, it was her fault for being indecisive.

The white smoke should have a strong purification or restoration effect—it is not impossible to destroy the Horcrux painlessly—but she just let it dissipate.

Sera's mood was worse than ever, and she once again forced herself to concentrate on analyzing the current situation to divert her attention, otherwise she would not be able to control her desire to destroy something.

Second, there are wizards passing by around to save them.This is not reasonable, they did not find other wizards on the way here, and Severus is not so easy to be taken away, combined with the situation that he was cured and then left behind - Sera can only guess The wizard held the love potion and fell in love with Severus at first sight.

Serra was distraught, and it took her a while to think of a third possibility.

—Dumbledore.

Dumbledore sent his phoenix?

This can be matched.Phoenix could save them both, heal her, and take Severus.

She exhaled lightly. This was the most reasonable explanation she could think of, and it was also the best situation.

The only question was, what was Dumbledore in a hurry for?

The author has something to say:

Thank you all for your comments!Thank you Feng Yimo for giving me the nutrient solution!

These two days are really a bit emo, the more I write, the more I miss Alan, woo woo woo

But that is to say... let nostalgia guide you to live a better life, don't indulge in sadness
