"Okay, Professor." Till accepted Professor Dumbledore's kindness, took a glass of freshly poured mead from his hand, and then glanced at the three professors doubtfully, "You are here to see me compete. Of?"

The three professors in front of me are Professor Dumbledore, Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall. Apart from coming to watch his own game, Thiel couldn't think of any reason why they would come all the way.

Tier blushed with embarrassment. She was embarrassed by the feeling of being taken seriously.

Professor Dumbledore smoothed his beard and adjusted himself to a more comfortable position: "Every game you play is important. Minerva and Severus actually wanted to come yesterday, but they were in school last night. Something happened."

"What's going on?" Teal was curious. She and Mgina's daily exchanges of letters were all about Teal's life here, but they rarely mentioned things about Hogwarts.

Teal guessed that it might be because Mgina and the others usually studied together. They might not know as much as the professors about what was happening in the castle.

"Well, it's actually not a big deal." Professor Dumbledore glanced at Professor Snape and wanted to skip the topic vaguely, but Professor McGonagall gently held a cup of black tea and took the initiative to explain to Teal. : "Several first-year students left the castle after dinner and approached the territory of the Whomping Willow."

"Wow, are they okay?" Till mourned for these unknown classmates.

The Whomping Willow was planted in 1968. It is not that old among the big trees, but its temperament is definitely the largest tree in Hogwarts, bar none.

Moreover, the Whomping Willow is planted outside the Forbidden Forest, and those first-year students are also very courageous, not only approaching the Forbidden Forest, but also daring to provoke the Whomping Willow.

Teal estimated that Madam Pomfrey must have been very angry.

Hearing this, Professor Snape snorted in a bad mood. Till looked over in confusion, not understanding what was wrong with his question.

Professor Dumbledore kindly explained for him: "Those first-year students are Slytherin students."

Well, Thiel gets it.

Professor Snape must have been very angry with those reckless first years, so when she mentioned them now, Professor Snape and she even looked down upon them.

But Till, who was always disliked by Professor Snape, didn't care. Instead, he chatted with Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall, and tasted the sumptuous breakfast served by the boss.

To be honest, she felt that with the boss's feeding, she would gain a lot of weight after the duel competition.

"Til, good morning!" Just after 7:30, Noah Guzman went downstairs. He saw Till's striking silver-white head at first glance, but after saying hello to her, he noticed that Tiel There were three Hogwarts professors sitting next to him, and his steps suddenly stopped.

Noah Guzman also attended Hogwarts and was sorted into Hufflepuff House by the Sorting Hat.

When he graduated, Professor Snape had just entered school, so he did not know Professor Snape, but he did know Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall.

Especially Professor McGonagall, whose Transfiguration performance was even difficult for Professor McGonagall at first...

"Mr. Guzman, come and sit down. We can talk about your future after graduation." Professor Dumbledore noticed his hesitation and waved with a smile.

"Long time no see, Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall." Noah Guzman walked over and sat down unnaturally, subconsciously choosing a position far away from Professor Snape but close to Till, "Professor Snape good."

Till's suspicious eyes went back and forth between Professor Snape and Noah Guzman. Why did she think Noah Guzman was afraid of Professor Snape? Given their ages, there shouldn't be any intersection between the two of them?

Could it be that the shadow left so deep a shadow when he was in school that when he saw someone who was a professor, Noah Guzman felt trembling in his heart? Thiel felt that his guess was quite reasonable.

Professor Snape had the same doubts as Till. He could more intuitively feel the eyes of Noah Guzman on him, repulsion, fear... and a little disgust?

Professor Snape first recalled his former classmates, and then recalled the students he had taught. He was sure that there was no one with the same surname as Guzman. He was even more confused and narrowed his eyes without leaving any trace.

So, why does this Noah Guzman hate him so much?

Professor Dumbledore pretended not to notice Noah Guzman's strange attitude towards Professor Snape. He was recalling Noah Guzman's deeds when he was a student with Professor McGonagall, and then joked at the right time: " To be honest, I thought Mr. Guzman would stay in Scotland, but I didn’t expect you to leave as soon as you graduated.”

"It's like returning home. There must be something in Mr. Guzman's hometown that you can't let go of, right?"

"Hometown is always unforgettable, and my family is waiting for me there." Guzman was in a very depressed mood, which could be heard in his tone, but he deliberately concealed his strangeness. "Where are the professors? How have you been these past few years?"

"Not bad, the house elves in the castle are getting better and better at cooking." Professor Dumbledore suddenly remembered something and took out a large bag of cookies from under his wizard robe, "I almost forgot, this is Fandi gave it to you."

Such a large bag of cookies was pushed in front of Teal, and it seemed that even Professor Snape paused while drinking tea, let alone Teal. She was very surprised and smiled happily: "Merlin, Professor, you have to thank it for me."

Fandy is the house elf who helps Till clean the room on the fifth floor. In the entire Hogwarts, except for Till, he is the only one who can enter that room.

According to Fandi, this is a task given to it by its father, a house elf who died five years ago.

The only purpose of their house elves staying in the castle is to help clean the room on the fifth floor to ensure that Till can live comfortably when he arrives.

Teal guessed that it was Helga's order. She was the first to make the decision to keep many of the house elves in the castle, so Salazar and the others would intentionally or unintentionally pick up homeless house elves from outside.

Professor McGonagall smelled the sweet aroma emanating from the cookie bag and brought the cup closer to her nose: "Til, are you sure about your match this afternoon?"

She felt it was necessary to change the subject, otherwise Till would definitely hold the bag of cookies and eat them on the spot, and then let the extra sweet aroma spread throughout the first floor.

Professor Dumbledore will definitely be happy then, but she won't. She really has no interest in sweets.

Till took out a cookie and placed it on the empty plate in front of him. At the same time, he replied to Professor McGonagall: "It's okay. No matter whether I win or lose, I will try my best."

"Just do your best, but don't be too stressed." Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief and watched with satisfaction as Till tied the cookie bag tightly.
