[HP] Guardian

"I thought you'd stop" Harry turned on the lights, the house was electrified, and the lights were brighter than candles.Snape spoke only after Harry closed the potions room door.

"The professor told me..." Harry glanced at him and smiled slightly, "I've thought about it for a long time, if I... I don't want to miss such a hope"

"Should I praise your great spirit of sacrifice?" Snape gave him a blank look, and followed his guidance to sit on the chair by the window.

Harry chuckled and did not refute his words, but took out the parchment and quill from the cabinet and put them on the table.

"Kreacher" looked at the time, and Harry called the elf.

"What's your order, young master Harry?" Kreacher appeared in the room, greeted Harry respectfully, and at the same time secretly looked at the dark guest.

"Please help me prepare two simple dinners, thank you"

"No, I'll go." Snape didn't intend to stay here, and stopped him with words.

"It's getting late, we need some time over here. I know the professor doesn't want to go down with them, so just stay with me here, just like in your office" Harry sat across from him and waved to Kreacher " Trouble, Kreacher"

"Good young master, I'll send it in a while." Kreacher only listened to the words of his recognized master, and disappeared immediately.

"Tell me what kind of medicine you want to mix?" He raised his hand to write down.

"Have you ever made the Soul Weakness Potion?" Harry shook his head, Snape frowned and reached out for the pen, "I'll write it"

Regarding the soul potion, Snape was quite professional. After all, Voldemort had been researching on this convenience, so as Voldemort's potion master, he brewed a lot of this convenient potion.However, when it comes to high-level potions, two potion masters usually don't brew them together, because the potion contains the magic power of the potion maker, so it may be bad if someone else brews it halfway.

"The ingredients of the potion have to be checked clearly. You should be clear about this. Take this medicine three days before the sacrifice, one ounce in the morning and one ounce each in the evening, and the soul stabilizer must be stopped for more than half a month before offering the sacrifice. After the sacrifice is successful, continue Take stabilizers. But you have to remove the green lotus juice, and replace the poppy red with two dozen orchid rhino horn powder, stir counterclockwise three times, change to low heat and cook for seven hours, and replace the beak of the dove with two dried golden wings Beetle, clockwise seven times and counterclockwise, turn off the fire and cool down, then add red plum stamens, the amount of magnets depends on his situation and control, no more than five dozen orchids at most.”

"Okay, got it." Harry summoned another pen and parchment from the cabinet to write down his words. There are also a lot of ingredients for the soul weakening potion, more than 40 kinds, and it will take 20 days to brew.

"Master, dinner is ready." After a while, Kreacher came back with a big tray. Although Harry told Kreacher that it would be simpler, Kreacher still cooked what Harry liked, and even specially served the guest York. The county pudding came with sausage.

"Thank you Kreacher, go and watch Regulus." Harry took the tray and made a place on the table to put it away.Regulus has been taken care of by Kreacher in daily life, but Sirius still doesn't like him very much, so he is ordered to only be allowed in Regulus' room, and he has to avoid people when they come.

"Eat first." After Kreacher left, Harry brought the plate to the hand of the old bat and placed it in the hands of the old bat. The old bat pointed to the quill to let it continue writing, then took the wet towel handed over by Harry to wipe his hands, and then picked it up. Knife and fork for dinner.

The main course is grilled steak, with potatoes, carrots, and broccoli as side dishes, and the soup is cod soup, served with sausage pudding for dim sum.Kreacher's serious workmanship is better than Molly's, especially for the convenience of entertaining guests. If it is a welcome guest, he will never embarrass the Black family.

The quill automatically finished the detailed preparation of the potion. Harry took the parchment in one hand and glanced at it.

"Su Hexiang is flying here, Caterpillar vines are flying, cuttlefish bones are flying, let's take a look at these three professors. I don't have a lynx beard." Harry handed the medicine bottle to the old bat, and the old bat took it and looked at it one by one.

"The vine is not fresh enough. Where did you buy the medicinal materials?" The old bat inserted a piece of potato and asked disgustedly. Except for the cuttlefish bone that caught his eyes, Su Hexiang could only say that it barely met the standard.

"The Bauhinia pharmacy didn't mail it, so I wrote a prescription and asked the elf to buy it." Harry licked the corner of his mouth, he couldn't say that he had been to Diagon Alley.

"These two" the old bat wrote down the addresses of two more pharmacies, one in Diagon Alley and the other in Diagon Alley. Not at this price." The old bat pointed to the one in Diagon Alley, which was even more remote than the store Harry used to buy, basically at the end of the alley.

"Okay, thank you professor." Harry looked at the steps again, and after making sure to write them down, he put down the parchment and continued to work on his dinner.

After finishing his meal, Harry got up and went to the operating table, checking all the equipment.Snape's eyes were sharp. He found that in addition to the common protective magic circle, there was also a stable magic circle engraved on the console. He frowned and still didn't say anything. He knew in his heart that the little troll had many secrets. .The little troll didn't tell him, he shouldn't have said more, although he often felt distrusted, Dumbledore's golden boy was indeed exactly the same as him, Snape was a little inexplicably angry, he wiped it off with a napkin Mouth ends dinner.

"Go down? Dumbledore should have told Ron and the others about the training, why don't you go and have a look?" Harry asked with a sideways glance at him.

"No, I'm not interested in the activities of a group of trolls," the old bat sarcastically rolled his lips.

kindness?Why are you suddenly angry?Harry was already very familiar with the subtle expressions of the old bat. He thought about it suspiciously, and didn't think he said anything wrong. Could it be that he was dissatisfied with the training plan?

"Dumbledore discussed with me and asked me to be in charge of the training, um...I'm under a lot of pressure," Harry said tentatively.

"I don't think it's hard for you" would have been fine if the old bat hadn't said it in a sarcastic tone.Harry blinked, it was because of training... But he couldn't explain anything, Dumbledore could only speak for the things arranged by Dumbledore.

"I think I can go." The old bat felt that he had nothing to do, and got up to leave.

"I'll go down with you." Harry followed him, and when he passed his own room, he suddenly remembered something. "Professor, wait a minute, I'll get you some books."

As he spoke, he opened his room. The living room had been converted into a study by him. There was a row of bookcases along the wall, and only tables and chairs were placed near the window.

Harry took out three books from the cabinet, used the Duplicating Charm to duplicate the books, and passed the books to the old bat when he left the study room. The old bat looked down and found that the three books were all about black magic.

"Do you like black magic?" Snape asked seemingly unintentionally.

"Well, it's okay, what's the matter?" Harry tilted his head in confusion, but Snape didn't answer him, but shrunk the book into his pocket, turned and walked downstairs.The old bat's mind was too difficult to guess, Harry sighed and followed him with a confused face.

The two passed outside the restaurant, and Molly and Dumbledore called to stop them.

"Stay here for dinner?" "Severus will tell you something later." Molly and Dumbledore basically spoke at the same time, and Snape stopped in his tracks and said no more.

"I've eaten." Molly knew that Harry had an elf, and when he was busy upstairs, the elf would also ask the elf to bring some tea and snacks. Molly nodded to show that she knew.

"Come on, let's go and see the training place" Everyone basically finished their dinner, and Dumbledore greeted them to move to the banquet hall together.

Moody and Tonks are still there, while Kingsley and some Aurors who have missions have left.The young wizards were obviously very excited when they heard the news. Although Ron wanted to share his good mood with his friends, Snape stood behind Harry. He swallowed and followed Hermione cowardly , and did not dare to step forward.

"I just talked to a few Aurors, they will come and practice with you when they are free." Dumbledore promised to accompany Harry to recover his magic power earlier in the morning, but he is busy now, so he can only let the Aurors train first." Severus can come over if he's free."

"No time" Snape flatly refused, and Dumbledore shrugged regretfully.

Their conversation uses a soundproof spell, so the little wizards don't know, and they are almost sold to the old bat by the white beard principal.

"Harry, how about trying it?" Dumbledore asked. Harry nodded, pulled out his wand, unbuttoned the cufflinks, rolled the sleeves above the elbows and fastened them with cuffs, and then walked to the center of the field.Dumbledore glanced at the red-haired Tonks who was full of combat power, "How about Tonks playing with Harry?"

"Okay!" Tonks was very happy that Dumbledore had chosen her, and immediately walked to the center of the banquet hall full of vigor.

Harry and Tonks greeted each other and came to confront each other. Then Tonks took the lead, and a petrification spell struck Harry. Harry waved his wand and armor appeared in front of him. Then he quickly waved his wand sideways slightly, Don Max's wand was successfully disarmed.

"Oh! Harry is so powerful!" The disarm was so quick that Tonks didn't even realize it. Although she didn't use all her strength, she had to admit that Harry was very good.

"Thank you for letting me go." Harry smiled, obviously seeing that Tonks wasn't fully on guard against him.

"When teaching them, you must do your best." Dumbledore said with a smile, and Harry had already walked back to Dumbledore's side.Snape keenly noticed that the occasional silver ring on his arm, like an armband, was a bracelet for restraining magic power.He frowned slightly, thinking of the little troll's unexpected magic power release in his office, and the magic circle that stabilized the magic power in the potion room. Is there something wrong with the little troll's magic power?

"Okay, it's getting late. Harry will be responsible for organizing the training in the future, but please take care of these children." Dumbledore greeted everyone, and then nodded to Snape to signal him to come with him.

The people living in the garden by the river bid farewell to their guests, and then they got together and started chatting at night.

On the other side, Snape accompanied Dumbledore back to Hogwarts, and the headmaster's office was still the same. Dumbledore recommended his honey lemon tea, but was ruthlessly rejected again.

"Oh! Well, let's talk about Harry, I know you have a lot of questions to ask." Dumbledore regretted that no one appreciated his taste, so he could only taste his cup of sweet and greasy black tea alone.

"What you promised me, you have repeatedly breached the contract, Dumbledore, I need an explanation" He promised Dumbledore to protect the little troll, and Dumbledore also promised him not to let the little troll take risks, Dumbledore He didn't refute what Lido decided, but it didn't mean he could accept Dumbledore letting the little troll die again and again.

"Severus, some things are not decided by me. Harry is very smart, and he does it better than I thought." Dumbledore looked at him seriously, his spy was in the memory Harry gave him, Well done, everything, except for Snape's unexpected death, went according to his plan.

"You can refuse, Dumbledore, don't take me for a fool, what on earth have you decided, and you don't tell me anything, how do you let me protect him?" Snape rolled his lips and continued, "You...do you know He wears a bracelet that suppresses magic power, and last year he suddenly released his magic power in my office, is there something wrong with his magic power?"

"You care about him very much, why don't you ask him yourself?" Dumbledore blinked, he probably guessed Harry's question.

"You asked me to protect him, and you also promised me that you would not let him know anything, and now you are telling me such things again," Snape said angrily.

"I never told him about your good side. He is much more sensitive than you think." Facing the accusation, Dumbledore just took a sip from his teacup. "And I promised him that I would not tell anyone about him." secret"

"Severus, you should ask Harry what you want to know, he cares about you very much" Dumbledore put down his glass and continued.

"Oh!" Snape was startled, he looked at Dumbledore as if he had heard a joke.The little troll cares that his old bee is clogged with dessert.

"I remember you have been confiscating apprentices, right? Harry is very talented, you can think about it" Dumbledore said in a relaxed tone, his blue eyes shone with a captivating light.The name of the savior in the academic world is not very popular. The academic world recognizes strength, but it is difficult to stand out with strength alone without a mentor.Even Snape, a potion genius, got into this circle after getting a letter of recommendation from Slughorn back then. However, he had no mentor and was not from aristocratic background, so he did suffer a lot.

"I think you are more suitable to guide him than me, after all he will discuss it with you." Snape paused for a long time before saying mockingly.

"I don't think so, he prefers to be with you than me, doesn't he?" Dumbledore said meaningfully.

"Hmph! You know very well what kind of person I am, aren't you afraid that he will go the wrong way?" He is a Death Eater, is the old bee really crazy?

"I'm sure he won't, and I trust you too" Harry had talked to Dumbledore in detail, and he hoped that after everything was over, he could give Snape a life of his own.The two also agreed that they both felt they owed a lot to Snape.But Dumbledore always knew people's hearts. He felt that Snape cared about Harry very much, so he made such a suggestion.

The conversation tonight was meaningless, Snape pursed his lips, one old and one young two foxes were too slick.

"I don't think there's anything else to talk about, let me borrow your fireplace." Snape got up coldly and said goodbye.

"Consider my proposal, I wish you a sweet dream, my child." Dumbledore raised his glass to Snape who walked into the fireplace, and Snape snorted coldly and disappeared into the fireplace.

Snape returned home in Spider's End, with a tired look on his face, but he still went into the potions room and was busy until two o'clock in the morning. When he went back to his room to wash and change clothes, he remembered the book in his pocket, and went to sleep. I turned on the desk lamp in front of me and turned a few pages. The whole book is written in Latin, and there are still many annotations in the book, with unique insights and interpretations of many obscure places.

But Snape couldn't stand it anymore, because Dumbledore's words at night made him a little upset.

Dumbledore seems to have a lot of trust in his golden boy, so it should be certain that what Lucius is asking cannot happen, but what are those two foxes planning?Dumbledore asked him to ask the little troll himself, and he didn't care about it... As for the apprentice Snape, he never considered taking an apprentice. After all, the relationship between a mentor and an apprentice is closer than that of a family friend. He thought he couldn't bear such a burden. Feelings, and I don't think anyone can bear him.What's more, the little troll prefers to make those little things rather than potions.

Snape thought about it for a long time, and didn't go to sleep until very late.
