The Snake Wife of the HP Professor

Ch.14: Wind Rises

In June 1978, Snape graduated from Hogwarts for the second time after getting all O's in NEWTs.He did not agree to Dumbledore's request to let him stay at school, nor did he accept St. Mungo's invitation to the apothecary profession.As soon as he returned to his home in Spider's End, he basically lived a life of "keep his ears off the window". After obtaining potion materials through mail order and Lucius' secret partnership, he hid most of the time in the The Potion Room and the Crucible are in love.

After Zenobia's soul power was completely restored, her practice became smoother and smoother, and she had reached the bottleneck period of breaking through the sixth level. She didn't have to stay in Hogwarts, and she would undoubtedly live with her contractor. In the days of staying at home, I learned about the news of the magic world through the Daily Prophet every day.

In view of the danger of war, and as a Slytherin, Snape didn't choose a side, Silver Snake worriedly planted four more magical colorful vines and one fragrant devil tree for the safety of the two of them—almost nothing After draining her magic power, fortunately, there is still a magical potion called magic power supplement in this world.What surprised her even more was that the magic power supplement actually had an effect on magic vines and ghost trees, just like fertilizer, it could increase their magic power and promote growth orz!

With a safe environment, Snape and Zenobia lived a happy life together.

Now, apart from practicing her innate magic, Zenobia has begun to systematically study the main courses of wizards in addition to handling potion materials for Snape.According to Snape, if one day she can fully transform into form, she might be asked to study at Hogwarts as a little wizard——Zenobia expressed the impossibility of this statement, although her human form It has become smaller, but it is also growing up slowly. When it is fully transformed, it will definitely look like an adult.However, she is not the snake who just came here and doesn't know anything. The two years of personal experience made her unable to underestimate wizards' spells (especially black magic) and potions.

——The wizards here, in terms of magic power, are far inferior to the magicians in the other continent. After all, they do not have a special training method to improve the magic power, but in terms of control and use, they are much more precise and accurate than those in the other continent.As for the potion, Zenobia thinks that this is a must-have item for home travel, murder and arson ←_←!

In short, Silver Snake's daily life was much more fulfilling than when he was at Hogwarts.

In a blink of an eye, one person and one snake have been "housed" at home for more than a year.The tranquility of Spider's End Alley was finally about to be broken.

In July, the scorching sun scorched the world, making people feel very irritable.Zenobia was lazily entangled on the incense devil tree, and suddenly detected an owl looking for something nearby.As usual, she did not bring the owl into the house until she had ascertained the harmlessness of the unknown letter.

When Snape read the letter, something was obviously wrong.After Silver Snake let the owl go, he saw the young man sitting on the sofa, lost in thought... After hesitating for a while, the girl swam her tail and approached quietly: she was rarely able to be on Snape's body. Feeling such deep dark emotions.She looked at the letter in the other party's hand - obviously, it was an invitation.

After a moment of confusion, she suddenly thought of the Potters who had been almost forgotten by her (although they were not married before, they were the Savior's parents, the Potters in Silver Snake's impression).

The person I love the most and the person I hate the most are getting married, and the invitation is sent home... This person must be in pain!Zenobia quietly stayed beside the young man, and she couldn't help being dazed.I couldn't help but think of the conflict between Snape and Potter in the seventh grade. At that time, Evans didn't even pay attention to Snape who was picked on by her boyfriend. She suddenly felt a little aggrieved. Knepe may have done something wrong, but were Evans and the Doom Quad really right?Even if they pursue the so-called justice, however, the attitude of the Gryffindors has never been fair to this half-blood Slytherin who has suffered a lot.

The more she thought about it, the more her thoughts became a little confused. Zenobia felt her heart was blocked and ached, and then she thought again: the dead are gone, Snape's past cannot be changed, but the future can be controlled of.Yin Snake secretly made up his mind that since she and him were companions, she would never let him suffer alone again.If he doesn't feel wronged, she will hold the injustice for him; if he doesn't feel sad, she will feel sorry for him!

——Zenobia still doesn't quite understand this kind of emotion.But that doesn't matter, what matters is that she has a heart that works hard to protect each other.

"Well, Miss Hayes is squatting here and sighing, is she trying to tell me that there is a caterpillar laying eggs in your throat?"

"Ah, I just think that the dishes are the same every day," said the silver snake, who was awakened by Snape's words, "I feel a little tired. It's hot now, and I'm thinking, should I order some by mail?" This recipe, make some food suitable for summer?"

"Hmm..." The deep, silky male voice draws out, "I thought that if you put your passion for food into practice, maybe you would have been able to fully transform yourself into a human."

After observing that the man's mood was not as low as she guessed, Silver Snake also let go of his heart, and opened his mouth with a smile, but it was a completely unrelated topic, with a funny expression on his face: "I suddenly discovered an important secret!"

"Hmm," Snape raised his eyebrows, "Given Miss Hayes' ridiculous facial expression, I'm very suspicious of your 'secret'."

"Hey, the secret is..." Zenobia imitated Snape's expression, raising her brows strangely, "Sir, your voice is really nice, what is there a word called, yes, 'sexy' , it describes your voice."

Snape's ears were slightly warmed by her weird compliment, but his face was frighteningly black, and he growled in a low voice: "Zenobia Hayes! Has the thing around your neck finally become a decoration?"

"Hee hee," Silver Snake continued to tease without fear of death, "Sir, this kind of behavior is called getting angry from embarrassment!"

Snape sneered: "Since Miss Hayes is so free..."

Zenobia was very familiar with Snape's methods, and continued with a smile: "I've taken care of all the ingredients for the potion."

"Fifteen inches of treatises on snake gall!"

"Huh?" Zenobia forgot that there are such things as papers. After all, she was only asked to write two or three papers recently.For Snake who hadn't written for many years, what she wrote earlier was severely criticized by Snape and got a P.

Seeing the completely wilted snake-tailed girl, Snape proudly lifted his chin, and added maliciously: "Leave it to me the morning after tomorrow at the latest."

Afterwards, Zenobia gradually forgot about Potter and Evans' wedding. After all, Snape never showed any abnormal emotions.It was just that one day at the end of August, the man who rarely went out went out for a whole day.When he came back, before Silver Snake had time to ascertain the other party's mood, an owl flew in through the open window—except for Snape's owl, the owl that could come in and out without hindrance was Lucius Malfoy that's it.

Snape squeezed the letter in his hand with a serious expression on his face.

"What's wrong?" Zenobia asked softly.She probably knew a little about the secret cooperation between Snape and Malfoy, and seeing Snape's expression now, something terrible must have happened.In this perilous time, nothing but the Dark Lord is involved.Thinking of some extreme Death Eaters who saw Snape as a traitor to Slytherin, it was a bit worrying.

"It's a bit complicated." Snape frowned, thought for a while, then suddenly looked at Zenobia, and asked, "Can your magic get rid of Inferi poison?"

Zenobia recalled the description about the Nether Corpse in the book: "Holy spells are best at dissolving this filthy toxin, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

Snape nodded, and said: "Malfoy will bring someone over later, you change back into a snake and stay on me first... I need to confirm some things, maybe I need your help. Of course, if you don't I would like to expose it to others, and I will think of another way."

"It's okay." Zenobia shook her head and chuckled, "You just make up your mind."

"Well," Snape lowered his head, read the letter carefully again, and said, "I'm not sure yet, so you don't have to think about it." After the owl flew away, he hurried into the potion room and prepared some special potions.

Near midnight, there was a movement from the enchantment of the incense devil tree. Snape put the little silver snake in his pocket and opened the door of his house.

After the brown-haired and blue-eyed man drank a sip of the potion, his figure quickly changed drastically.The always elegant and calm platinum aristocrat looked haggard at this time, and the soft hair that had been carefully maintained was also dull. He was almost disrespectful and slumped on the sofa in the living room, with his right hand unconsciously caressing the arm of the other hand .

Snape couldn't care less about appeasing his old friend's emotions, because there was another object in front of him that he urgently needed to deal with - a young man with bluish-black skin, like a dead person, who seemed to have no breath, and his whole body was stiff, Lying on the transformed bed.

...Although some things had been guessed before, the situation of Little Black was worse than Snape expected, and there was almost no life left.The master of potions poured several bottles of special detoxification and alleviating agents into the young man's mouth without hesitation.

The silver snake hidden in Snape's clothes gave up his plan to wait and see—Snape wanted to save people, but under the condition of loss of vitality, the potion could not work for a while—so he used the cover of his clothes to Quietly released the sacred spell that forcibly injected life force.The looming white light naturally did not escape Snape's eyes. He did not stop him, but glanced at Malfoy from the corner of his eye without any trace, and adjusted his position to block the possibility of his friend's prying eyes.

"Regulus... can he be saved?" Malfoy's hoarse voice broke the silence of the room.

After the magic power of the silver snake was injected into Little Black's body, Snape carefully observed the person's physical condition, then slightly relaxed his tense nerves, turned around, looked at his friend, and after a while , replied: "It's almost impossible... However, my potion can temporarily suppress the poison, and he can temporarily recover some vitality later." After a pause, he whispered, "Lucius, I think, maybe You should explain what's going on? After all, this is my home."

Malfoy looked distraught, and after a long time, he sighed: "The Malfoy family is probably about to face an unprecedented crisis." He had officially taken over the family more than half a year ago, and what he discovered now made him He couldn't help panicking, "Severus, forgive me, I can't explain to you for the time being. It's just... I want to ask you to keep Regulus temporarily, if you can save him." If The Dark Lord is going to drag everyone into hell, and the Slytherins need to work together to save themselves.

Snape fell silent.Even if Malfoy didn't say anything, he knew what happened. It was just that Regulus finally discovered the Horcrux, and the subtle changes in history made this little Black be discovered and rescued by Malfoy at the last moment.

In Snape's previous life, Dumbledore actually didn't tell him about the Horcrux... However, the double agent was not easily fooled, he learned the fact that the Dark Lord split several Horcruxes by virtue of clues, One of them is... the golden boy.It's just that Snape doesn't have much information. The Horcruxes he can confirm are Gaunt's ring, locket, diary and Harry Potter.In this life, it's not that he hasn't considered destroying the Horcruxes beforehand, but it's obviously unwise to investigate the Horcruxes when the Dark Lord's main soul is still strong.
