HP: Embrace the Darkness

There were two more professor seats, and the seat where Asseth now sat was next to Snape's usual seat.

That's where the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor used to be, just across from Susanna.

Susanna sat next to Artes, claiming to protect him.

So when Lupine came to the auditorium, there was only one seat left in the teacher's seat, which was the seat next to Susanna.

He didn't choose, his eyes swept over Snape carefully, and he sat down next to Susanna.

Artes could feel that Snape's body tensed up for a moment when Lupine came in and took a look.

Then his whole body was filled with disgust and coldness, and his face did not hide his displeasure.

"Sev, are those leaves still enough?"

Knowing that Snape didn't like Lupine, Artes quietly diverted his attention.

"I plan to have the seedlings grown at the castle brought over and handed over to Professor Sprout for cultivation, so that you can use them more conveniently."

"It's enough for now. Professor Sprout is really good at herbalism."

"but……"

Snapla said in a long tone.

"Hogwarts is not just about professors, but also a group of stupid lions with strong curiosity. Are you sure your leaves will not be damaged by their stupid behavior?"

When someone he likes questions his ability, Asseth becomes anxious.

"I am a professor of alchemy. What is my best thing? Have you forgotten about it? If they can get in, then I will start learning alchemy again."

Aces's eyes widened, and he was about to make an unbreakable oath to prove his skills.

"It's up to you, these are your business, I'm just a potions professor."

While the two were chatting, the little wizards walked into the auditorium in groups.

Seeing Asseth sitting at the teacher's desk, their eyes widened in surprise.

Subtle discussions broke out all of a sudden.

Soon, the little wizards arrived, and Professor McGonagall also led a group of new little wizards in.

The sorting ceremony begins.

There was nothing special about this sorting ceremony.

But it was the chorus conducted by Professor Flitwick that made Artes' eyes shine.

"Why doesn't Principal Dumbledore consider changing the school song to this one? It's at least neat."

Snape nodded, reluctantly agreeing with this view.

There was disgust for the school song in his eyes.

After finishing the song, Dumbledore stood up and swept his kind eyes across the audience.

All the little wizards in the audience fell silent and waited for Dumbledore to speak.

"Welcome everyone back to Hogwarts in the new year, and welcome all new students to Hogwarts."

"I have a few words to say next. First of all, I am very lucky that Professor Lupine is willing to be the teacher of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Everyone is welcome."

Sparse applause broke out.

After the previous few twists and turns, the little wizards no longer had any hope in the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Only the new little wizards clapped excitedly.

Lupine stood up and nodded to everyone.

Seeing Snape's reluctant expression and applauding, Artes felt a little amused.

Why is Sev so cute?

"Then there is an old friend that everyone is familiar with, our Professor Cavendish will take up the position of Professor of Alchemy at Hogwarts."

Just as Dumbledore's voice disappeared, fierce applause almost overturned the auditorium.

"Aces——"

"It also--"

Fred and George looked at each other and said in unison.

"so cool!"

The cheers of the twins were not inferior to the applause.

Slytherin seemed to be competing with Gryffindor, putting aside their elegance and reserve, and applauded hard, trying to overpower Gryffindor.

The other two houses were not to be outdone, and Asseth could still see Cedric waving to him in Hufflepuff.

Asseth stood up, bowed slightly to the audience slowly, and sat down again.

"There is another unpleasant thing. This year Hogwarts will welcome a group of dementors. They will guard Hogwarts until Sirius Black is caught."

Dumbledore continued to speak, not loudly, but the seriousness in it could be heard by all the little wizards present.

"Please note that these dementors have no human emotions, and they will not let you go just because you are afraid or apologetic. So, don't give them any reason to hurt you."

"Okay, let's start a pleasant meal."

Dumbledore waved with a smile, and a variety of food appeared on the long table.

Aces saw many familiar dishes inside, mostly cookies.

Grindelwald might not be as good as delicious food in Dumbledore's heart, Artes secretly suspected.

After the dinner, Asseth forcibly picked up Susanna, who refused to leave and kept staring at the little wizard below, back to the office.

His office was an empty classroom closest to the cellar.

The decoration inside continues the Slytherin style. Nina decorated it and he can just move in.

The office is not big, with only two rooms in it, the professor's lounge and a study room.

Aces had an alchemy box and was not very dependent on the rest room, so he gave the rest room to Susanna.

"I want to share an office with you!? I don't want it! Why don't I have an office of my own?" Susanna said angrily.

Even if there is no introduction from her, there is not even an office. How has she ever felt so aggrieved?

"This is said to be my office, but actually I don't use it much. You can just say it's yours."

From the beginning, Asseth had no intention of staying in this office for a long time. Was it because the cellar was not close enough? Or are the people inside not good enough?

Why live in the same office as Suzanne? Isn't it comfortable to stay in the cellar every day?

"You can do whatever you want in the office, just remember not to touch my study."

Susanna's temper came and went quickly. When Asseth gave up her office, she stopped making trouble.

I happily went to decorate the office.

Aces shook his head.

This cousin is so grown up, why is she still acting like a child who has not grown up?

Thinking this way, he walked towards the only room in the office, which was the study room decorated by Nina.

The study room is decorated the same as the study room in Cavendish Manor. It seems that Nina was worried that he would not be used to it, so she decorated it according to the decoration at home.

Aces waved his hand, and a large pile of books floated out from the portable alchemy box and placed neatly on the bookshelf.

The empty bookshelf was filled instantly.

Some commonly used alchemy tools also floated out and were placed in the place where Asses was used to.

After doing all this, Asseth looked around to make sure there was nothing wrong, then turned and walked towards the cellar.

At the door of the cellar, Miss Medusa saw Asseth, lazily swung her tail and opened the door.

This guy came to the cellar as if he were returning to his own home, and it didn't even bother to stop him.

"Thank you, Miss Medusa."

Asses politely thanked Miss Medusa. Miss Medusa disliked his procrastination and slammed the door shut.

Force Ass into the cellar.
