Ch.16: Transition

"Actually," Malfoy said slowly, "I do have something to discuss with you. But before that, I would like to discuss the powerful and beautiful Miss Snake first. Severus, how many times have you She has changed a lot over the years, isn't it because of her? I wonder if you can satisfy your friend's curiosity: what is the origin of that lady?" Mysterious and huge magic, exquisite and strange wand... everything is explained Extraordinary for girls.Patriarch Malfoy suddenly had an idea, with the help of Miss Snake, plus Snape's strength and potions, maybe a turning point is just around the corner.

"Lucius, I don't think you want to know the consequences of violating the confidentiality agreement?" Snape first gave a slight warning, and then replied to Malfoy's question, "Even if you know Hayes' origin , It doesn't help your calculations in your heart either. They have been hiding from the world for too long, if not for some reasons, she would not have entered the magic world. She doesn't care about things in the magic world."

Snape naturally had some considerations for exposing the existence of the silver snake in front of Malfoy and the two of them today.

First of all, Silver Snake has left her original world, and now she can only and must integrate into this world. Naturally, she can't hide behind others forever, which simply restrains her lively and curious nature; secondly, although Snape doesn't want to get involved in the war, But he also knew that the Dark Lord and his Horcruxes were extremely dangerous existences. He couldn't passively wait for the other party to disappear. He had to do something. This time Malfoy and Little Black's request for help was an excellent opportunity. For this reason, little Black can only rely on the silver snake to recover; what's more, little Black has nowhere to go now, so he must stay in Spider's End Alley for a while, and the silver snake can't just keep hiding.He believed that Malfoy and young Blake were good and timely Slytherins, and most importantly, he would ensure the safety of the snake-tailed girl.

Malfoy didn't care about Snape's understatement, and said, "Severus, you don't have to worry about my schemes against Miss Hayes. But Miss Hayes, who has a noble blood and powerful magic, is very important to us. It is a favorable turning point. You should know that the situation of the whole Slytherin is a bit delicate now."

"Lucius, Hayes will not be a bargaining chip for you great nobles to balance interests. No matter what the bloodline of the lazy snake or the strength of magic power, it can't change the nature of her troll." Snape's lips curled up, Frowns furiously frowned: Could it be that Lucius wanted to win a second Voldemort?It's ridiculous.

Malfoy shook his head and sighed: "Severus, you don't need to be so guarded. Let's not care about Miss Hayes' matter. Now, what I want to tell you is... about that lord."

"Aha, if you can still use your brain normally, you should still remember what you said an hour ago." Snape raised his eyebrows slightly, "I don't think I am a member of the Death Eaters."

"No..." Thinking of the series of events that happened today, Malfoy said wearily, "My friend, I didn't intend to hide anything, I didn't want to involve you in danger... It's just that I miss you Now that I have guessed something, and I really need a helper or an ally now. So now, I have changed my mind."

Snape was not in a hurry to express his position, but only said flatly: "Lucius, you should know that I don't have any ancient family power to use. I can't help you much except potions."

But Malfoy smiled: "Severus, I don't need you to do anything special. As a neutral Slytherin, a master who has made extraordinary achievements in potions, all I want is your attitude." , This man also has an unpredictable magical creature beside him.Just the fact that the Silver Snake was able to treat Little Black, who was on the verge of death due to the poison of the Nether Corpse, solved some troubles for them invisibly.

Snape also probably knew some of Malfoy's thoughts. It was nothing more than not putting all his eggs in one basket. Under the premise that the Dark Lord was destined to end, this ancient Slytherin pure-blood noble only needed to hold on to a chance of survival until the end of the battle. In the end, it will naturally be able to regain its glory, and it will not be forced to choose the Order of the Phoenix, which is hostile to Slytherin.Malfoy's calculations would not compromise his and Silver Snake's safety, and Snape had nothing to object to.

"But Severus, have you considered inheriting the Prince family?" Malfoy asked instead.If Snape became Prince's patriarch, even if it was a declining nobleman, the influence of the Potions family would not be weak.And Snape's own strength cannot be underestimated.For a powerful and amazingly gifted Prince potion master, both parties in the magic world could not help respecting and wooing him.

Snape resolutely rejected the proposal: "I'm not a brat who counts on the protection of his family for every little thing." He was proud of the "Half-Blood Prince", but he was only half a Prince.It was so difficult in the previous life, but he still chose to rely on his own strength; in this life, it is even more impossible for him to return to Prince.If he wanted to, without the "taint" of being a Death Eater, his achievements in potions would be enough to win the Order of Merlin, First Class.

"I will apply for Potions Master certification." Finally, Snape said.During this period of time, a newly promoted potion master may attract much attention and may even be in danger, but it will also bring some convenience. At least, Malfoy's calculations will be more stable—since there may be a relationship with Malfoy. Black tacitly reached some kind of agreement, and Snape would naturally do his best.

Sure enough, Malfoy looked very happy after hearing this.

This night, the lights in Spider's End Lane were not turned off until it was almost dawn.

At the beginning of March 1980, Severus Snape, who had just turned 3 years old, successfully passed the examination of the International Potions Association and became the youngest potions master in the history of magic. After a detailed report by the Daily Prophet, he caused a lot of trouble in the magic world. response.Especially with the release of the improved wolfbane potion, the name of Severus Snape was almost a household name in the magic world.This new type of wolfsbane potion was further improved by Snape on the basis of the improvement in his previous life, and by using the magic plants from the other continent.

——After the werewolf drinks this potion, there will be two results: the congenital werewolf will remain rational after transforming on the night of the full moon without obvious side effects; Their bodies became a little weak during those few days, but if they take it uninterruptedly, the wolfsbane in their bodies will be excreted every month. If things go on like this, they may eventually return to normal people.

Although some effects of the new wolfbane potion have not been fully confirmed in the short term, after the first batch of finished products were released and used, the werewolves who were eager to integrate into the magic world were obviously overjoyed.The Potions Association also recognized the efficacy of the new Wolfsbane potion. In mid-September, the Daily Prophet detailed the outstanding significance of the appearance of this potion.At the end of the report, it was unavoidable to praise Snape again.

For this reason, in early 1981, the Order of Merlin identified Snape as a candidate for the Order of Merlin.

"The invention of the new wolfbane potion will become a milestone in the history of potions...Master Snape's talent for potions has been surpassed by no one in the past hundred years." In the house in Spider's End Lane, the girl is round and delicate He read the report in the newspaper in an upbeat voice, "The Medal of Merlin, First Class, undoubtedly belongs to this young but great potions master. Puff haha, whoops... this reporter is really interesting."

At the dining table, the two men were eating their breakfast in silence, one of them had a dark face, biting a sandwich viciously, and scolded Lucius Malfoy in his heart for making these things happen; the other seemed serious He was eating his own breakfast, but there was an obvious smile on the corner of his mouth.The girl sitting across from them was holding a milk bottle in one hand and shaking the Daily Prophet in the other. When she couldn't help laughing, the long tail of the snake slapped the ground appropriately.

"Put down that stupid expression of yours, Hayes!" Snape growled unbearably, "Now, put down the newspaper and eat seriously!"

"Oh..." Silver Snake was generally obedient, but he couldn't hold back, and said with a chuckle, "Sir, the person who wrote the report really admires you, he must be your fan." Well, Except that the words were a little exaggerated and the tone a little excited, what the man wrote was not exaggerated, "Actually, sir is much better than what was written in the newspaper!"

Snape, who was about to reprimand the girl again, heard the other party's sudden exclamation, choked for words, took a sip of coffee a little uncomfortable, and said sternly: "Don't chat while eating."

Little Blake, who was "transparent" by the two, smiled and enjoyed the interaction between the two, feeling amusing and amazed in his heart: the relationship between the two is really natural and...intimate.In this Blake's impression, Snape was definitely a model of indifference, gloomyness, and refusal to be thousands of miles away. Such a casual and relaxed mood was completely inconsistent with the other person's personality and temperament.He has lived in Spider's End for a year and a half, and he has been watching the way these two get along with each other, and he always has an incredible feeling.

After the breakfast episode, life went on as usual.Snape was not in a hurry for potions today, he was holding a black magic book, flipping through it casually, and occasionally raised his eyes to glance at the two people in the courtyard; after Zenobia checked Little Black's body habitually, Pushing the other party's wheelchair to the courtyard.The magical aura emanating from under the incense devil tree can soothe people's spirit and relax the body. It will relieve the pain caused by the collision of the vigorous sacred magic and the deadly and filthy corpse toxin.

"Are you okay?" Zenobia looked worriedly at Little Blake, who was twitching all over and obviously suffering from extreme pain. In any case, this young man with a gloomy appearance but a soft heart but a firm will was the second in her life. a friend.

——That flamboyant white peacock is not considered a friend, you know, the innocent and innocent silver snake was cheated of many good things by this cunning and gossip Malfoy.The girl who was not very good at lying was almost not found out by the other party. Fortunately, Snape gave the other party a serious warning later.

Little Blake panted violently, resisting the desire to howl in pain, and nodded with difficulty: "It's okay, continue..." The treatment process was painful, but he had too many responsibilities to bear, so he had to endure it.The effect is also obvious, he is now able to walk while leaning on the wall.

"Well," Zenobia smiled slightly, admiring this man's spirit from the bottom of her heart, and her tone became more gentle unconsciously, "Then I will continue, and if you can't bear it, just let me know."

The young girl has a beautiful appearance, a warm smile, and her rosy lips are gently opened and closed. Even if you can't hear what she said, you can feel that the tone must be extremely gentle; although the young man's expression is distorted, it is just the aristocratic temperament soaked in for many years , His unyielding and strong will in the face of pain makes him look extraordinarily eye-catching... The fragrant devil tree is gently swaying, the warm winter sun is pouring down, and the picture is peaceful and beautiful.

Turning his eyes away indifferently, Snape lowered his head and stared at the book, but he didn't turn a page for a long time, and his spare left hand clenched into a fist at some point: this kind of inexplicable and inescapable bitterness makes a person's heart in the dark Struggling in the middle, it seems that a wild beast is about to roar out...

The regular knock on the door suddenly jolted Snape back to his sanity.Malfoy had been given access to the house a year earlier.However, the vigilant master of potions did not relax his guard. He put one hand casually on his wand pocket, got up and walked towards the door.

"Severus," Malfoy couldn't wait to speak as soon as he entered the door, his face seemed to be filled with joy and fear, "I heard a prophecy today about that lord..."

The platinum nobleman, who was a little confused, didn't notice that his friend Snape's eyes suddenly became blank after hearing the word "prophecy".
