The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

"S... Snape? How is this possible?"

Harry almost screamed.

This startled Slughorn.

He patted his big belly, calmed down for a while, then shook his head and said:

"Nothing is impossible. In fact, Lily and Severus had known each other before coming to Hogwarts. They seemed to be neighbors. In short, in the first few years of their enrollment, their relationship had always been Very good, even completely inseparable.

The only problem is their identity.

Can you imagine a Slytherin and a Gryffindor eating together, playing together, and even sitting together in class?

That's really against the grain. "

Harry nodded blankly.

To be honest, that scene can no longer be described as just inconsistent.

Just imagining the intimacy of his mother and Snape sitting together gave Harry a strong and strange feeling.

That's really... disgusting!

"So, everyone else in Gryffindor House and Slytherin House also thought so, so the two of them were ostracized by their respective houses."

Slughorn sighed and said, "That situation lasted for about a year. Later, Severus took the initiative to alienate Lily. It was said that he no longer liked playing with Lily, which made Lily very sad. . But in fact? Those of us who are professors actually know very well that Severus still likes Lily very much. He does this just because he doesn’t want Lily to be isolated by the Gryffindors anymore. You know? Sometimes During class, Lily and Severus were obviously far apart, but Severus still kept secretly looking at Lily. That look was so ridiculous... Oh no, I should say, it was too pitiful. .”

"I...I still can't believe it. How is this possible? Snape...this is absolutely impossible!"

Harry shook his head in pain.

If you only listen to Slughorn's description, although what Snape did was a bit silly, it was definitely a model of gentleness, and could even be said to be clumsy but sincere love.

But Harry knew Snape!

In reality, the Snape he knew had nothing to do with tenderness!

This is outrageous!

"If you don't believe it, how about we ask Severus himself now? He's here anyway, isn't he?"

Slughorn said with a sigh.

Upon hearing this, Harry also raised his head, his eyes shining with determination.

……

at the same time.

Snape was hiding in the corner of the classroom with Link and Emily.

There was a special magic surrounding them.

Under the influence of this magic power, the existence of the three of them seemed to be erased.

Even if the students passing by consciously cast their gaze in their direction, they couldn't really detect their presence.

"What kind of spell is this? It looks pretty good."

Snape felt the strange magic surrounding him and said lightly.

"A composite spell composed of soundproofing spell, disembodiment spell, warning spell and other magic spells. The effect is somewhat similar to the Muggle expulsion spell, except that it is specially used to deal with wizards." Link flicked his wand. He said, "This is something I developed recently. Without it, I don't know how to live."

Hearing this, Snape also recalled the scene where Link and Emily were surrounded by Slug Club members almost instantly, and nodded empathetically.

With Link and Emily's current status, it would be difficult to attend similar gatherings without such a magic spell.

The enthusiasm of those who are greedy, or those who simply admire Link, can almost melt Link's whole body.

"lets change a topic."

Link said, "I received news from the Ministry of Magic that Lucius Malfoy was picked up?"

Snape nodded and said:

"Yes, I personally took Draco and Narcissa to pick them up."

"Oh? Did you go there in person?" Link narrowed his eyes and said, "This is not in line with your character, Professor Snape."

Snape glanced at Link and changed the subject:

"They also said they wanted me to convey their gratitude for your tolerance."

"Professor Snape, isn't this even more wrong?" Emily suddenly covered her mouth and snickered, "With their family's character, shouldn't they hate Link to the core? Lucius Malfoy and Narcissa Malfoy might be better off, after all, they understand that trouble comes from the mouth. As for Draco Malfoy... haha, I guess he said a lot of bad things about us openly, right? "

Snape fell silent.

He had to admit that Emily's knowledge of the Malfoy family was indeed very solid.

Every one of Emily's guesses was true.

This made Snape feel uncomfortable.

The Malfoys were like dolls in a puppet show, completely controlled.

"Stop talking about that."

Link waved his hand and said, "I'm not a bad person who wants to kill them all because they said a few bad words about me. Anyway, Lucius Malfoy has been released. From now on, they just need to be honest and abide by the law." Just keep living.

What I'm more curious about is that after experiencing this torture, Lucius Malfoy should have gained a lot of profound insights into life, right?

Why, didn’t he share it with you? "

As soon as he said this, Snape's expression was a little strange. He stared at Link deeply and said:

"Of course, he persuaded me to get married and have children as soon as possible. For this reason, he even pushed out Astoria Greengrass, who was originally scheduled to marry Draco. It is worth mentioning that at that time, he The topic change was very abrupt, and the whole person was a little off. So... Link, this was your idea, right?"

Link smiled without comment and said:

"It's a good idea anyway, right? Of course, I mean getting married and having children, not Astoria Greengrass. That girl is too young, so I'd better leave it to Draco. As for you, Professor Snape, what kind of girl are you looking for? You should understand that with my current power, I can help you find any girl. Gentle? Lively? Beautiful? Diligent? Or maybe... he has a similar appearance and personality to Lily..." 33 Novel Network

"Shut up! Link!"

Snape interrupted with a stern look, "Don't mention that name in front of me!"

Emily frowned at Snape's somewhat rude look, while Link continued to smile:

"People have to come out. There is no point in immersing yourself in the pain of the past and torturing yourself. There is no way to undo it. You can only drive yourself crazy."

"That's because you haven't experienced that, Link. You have everything, kind family, sincere friends, kind teachers..." Snape said, "So now, you can stand in the sunshine and persuade me to come out. But. In fact, I have been very clear from the beginning that you and I are actually the same kind of people. Once one day you lose the treasures you have now, you will become just like me... No, you will be even better than me. Even crazier! After all, you have more terrifying power in your hands and can do more!"

Link didn't speak, just looked at Snape quietly.

He had to admit that Snape had a point.

He really couldn't truly understand Snape's pain.

But that didn't stop Link from trying to get Snape to come out.

Because although Voldemort has been expelled from the country, it seems that Snape's tragic ending has also been changed.

But as Link's strength increased, his mental power also continued to skyrocket.

This makes his ability to predict destiny become stronger and stronger.

Through this ability, Link could vaguely sense that Snape was gradually heading towards self-destruction.

This feeling was magical and vague, so vague that Link had no idea what was going on.

But what is certain is that Snape will die.

It was a tragic death.

And this is expected to happen in the near future!

And this is something Link simply cannot tolerate!

Along the way, Link received help from many people.

But among these people, Snape, like Mrs. Foley and Emily, occupies the most important position in Link's heart.

It was Snape who taught him how to refine various potions, and it was Snape who taught him how to fight.

Even in a sense, the reason why Link now embarks on such a battle system with the power of curse as the core is because Snape led him to do so.

Snape is no longer just a professor or teacher in Link's heart.

But the real one - Master!

Link would not allow him to die such a miserable death, even if it was Snape's own will!

Gu Xie</span>So we must hurry up and change Snape's mind to get him out of the whirlpool of self-torture!

Thinking this, Link took a deep breath and said sincerely:

"Professor Snape, I sincerely hope you are happy!"

As if he didn't expect Link to say this suddenly, Snape was obviously stunned for a moment, and the originally stiff expression on his face gradually softened.

But at this moment, Link smiled again:

"Regardless of the topic about Lily, I'm afraid I still have to mention it. Even if I don't say it, there will always be someone who wants to say it."

After saying that, Link turned his head and looked to the side, where Slughorn and Harry were tinkering with something outside the protective layer of the Wizard Expelling Curse he had set up.

It was obvious that they had noticed that Link and others were nearby.

But no matter what, they couldn't break the curse that shrouded this area.

Link flicked his wand, and a small opening opened in the barrier in front of them.

"Oh! My God! Link, is this your newly developed spell? It's so great! For this invention alone, you should ask the Lord Merlin to give you another Sir Merlin badge!"

Slughorn said excitedly. As he spoke, he was still sensing the special changes in the magic power around him, looking very excited.

In contrast, Harry seemed even more eager.

He rushed directly to Snape without any hesitation and said:

"S...Professor Snape! Professor Slughorn told me that you once had a very good relationship with my mother. Even...we were even supposed to be together. Is this true?"

Snape's eyes suddenly shrank, and he seemed a little at a loss.

Link and Emily, who were well aware of the situation, covered their mouths to cover the corners of their mouths that were rising crazily.

Among them, Link couldn't help but dub Snape's heart:

"Oh!"

Snape gave Link a hard look, then avoided Harry's eyes, and said in a hoarse voice:

"She and I are indeed friends...former friends."

Harry's face paled when he heard this, and he staggered back several steps, and was finally supported by Slughorn.

"But...if that's the case," Harry murmured with a pale face, "Professor Snape, why did you target me like that?"

Facing Harry's question, Snape's eyes trembled a little, as if he had some emotion that he could no longer suppress.

This is a sign that Occlumency is about to be broken.

Slughorn on the side muttered angrily:

"What else could it be? Of course it's because of your father!"

"Professor Slughorn!" Snape called, "Stop talking!"

"Why can't you tell me? Harry is old now and should know some things from back then!"

Slughorn continued to say to Harry, "It's not that I look down on him, James Potter, but in fact, in the eyes of me and even many people at the time, your father is not worthy of Lily at all!"

Harry was still a little unconvinced, but Slughorn continued with a sneer:

"I've already explained to you what kind of person your mother is. To be exaggerated, I wouldn't be too surprised even if one day I heard that she became the Minister of Magic. After all, she is that good. And what about your father? Do you know what kind of person he is? "

"Of course I know!" Harry couldn't help but say, "He is very brave, very kind, and a true Gryffindor!"

"Oh my god! Hahaha!"

Slughorn couldn't help laughing, "I guess Sirius Black must have told you these things? Indeed, in his heart, James Potter is a perfect person. After all, he is essentially Who in the world would be willing to demean himself as James Potter is the same kind of person? And actually?"

Slughorn suddenly grimaced, "In my opinion, and in the eyes of many professors at the time, your father was actually a playboy and a playboy! He was indeed excellent in some aspects, such as intelligence and popularity. Okay, let's say he played Quidditch well and even won the house championship. But in other aspects, he was so annoying!

He is arrogant!He likes to show off and always messes up his hair as if he just got off the flying broomstick!

He thought that was cool, but to us, it was so ridiculous!

He also formed a small group called the Marauders with Sirius, Lupine, and Pettigrew.To be honest, this name is really apt!

Because they really haven't done much good since they formed the 'Predators'.

Taking advantage of their wealth and power, they wreaked havoc everywhere and violated campus disciplines, causing headaches to almost all professors.

The most terrible thing is that they bully their classmates. "

"Bullying? How could this happen? Who were they bullying?"

Harry asked, while Slughorn raised his eyebrows and said:

"Who else would you say?"

Harry looked at Snape with a horrified expression.

He could think of no other possibilities.

And in this way, everything will become reasonable.

Snape's targeting of him stemmed entirely from his father.

Because his father not only snatched his mother from Snape, but even teamed up with Sirius and others to bully him.

Now that he had fallen into Snape's hands, Snape would naturally return all the pain James Potter had inflicted on him to James Potter's son.

In particular, Harry had heard Sirius lament more than once that he looked very much like his father.

"Poor kid! I've always remembered what happened that afternoon."

Slughorn sighed and said, "He was blocked, and in front of everyone and Lily, he was attacked with a curse he invented and hung up. , was ripped off..."

"That's enough! Slughorn, didn't you hear me when I said enough!?"

Snape's sharp voice interrupted Slughorn's story.

At this moment, Snape seemed to have let go of the restrictions imposed on him by Occlumency.

Harry promised that he had never seen Snape so angry.

The blazing anger in him was even mixed with his own magic power, and the two combined to form a substantial and powerful force.

The Wizard Expelling Spell arranged by Link was almost instantly broken by this huge force from the inside out. All the students in the venue noticed the movement here and cast curious eyes.

Slughorn, who had just reacted when everyone was looking at him, might have felt that he was losing his dignity.

He said with a straight face:

"Mr. Snape, I think you'd better control your emotions. I'm here to help you!"

Snape didn't answer.

The gazes of the students around him had gradually calmed him down, and he had withdrawn all the magic power that had erupted around him, but the look he looked at Slughorn was particularly cold.

Anyone who has attended Snape's NEWT class and knows something about it knows that this means that Snape's anger has not subsided, but has become more intense.

With Snape's character, it's impossible to say how much respect he had for Slughorn.

I got anxious.

A fight is not impossible.

Slughorn also knew this, but unfortunately, he was already in a bit of trouble at this time.

At this moment, Link suddenly stood up.

"Okay, that's it for today's party!"

He pointed at the students around him and shouted, "Everyone, hurry back to your dormitory and go to bed. Everything about today's party must be kept secret.

Hermione, and Neville, please come over.Come on, take Harry back to the dormitory to have a good rest. He has been greatly stimulated today.

And Emily, you should go back with Snape and talk to him more.

Leave it to me here. "

Under Link's command, the crowd quickly and orderly poured out of the classroom.

Everyone chose to obey Link's orders, even Snape and Slughorn who were angry.

After the originally noisy classroom was completely deserted, Link looked at Slughorn indifferently and said:

"Now, Professor Slughorn, it's time for us to talk business."
