HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

Nearly a week had passed since that night outing, and Xia had not gone on night outings with Ander and the others during this time.

The reason was simple. It was just that she went back too late that day and was excited about her first night outing. Xia suffered from insomnia. When Lily called her in the morning, she was almost frightened by the dark circles under her eyes and the bloodshot in her eye sockets.

It was too uncomfortable to force herself to stay awake to attend class. If Xia hadn't been worried about being discovered by the professor and having her Gryffindor gem taken away, she really wanted to fall asleep.

Oh, that doesn’t seem to work. Lily will wake her up.

Merlin, I really have to resist the temptation to go out with them at night. It's good to experience this kind of thing once, too many times will really be unbearable. And! Let me say it again, no one will go against the school gems! This was the last thought of Xia when she fell asleep in the History of Magic.

"Oh my god, Sia, what did you do yesterday?"

Facing Lily's eyes that were three parts condemnation and four parts worry, Xia couldn't help but feel guilty. It was so comfortable to sleep through the entire History of Magic class. The sky outside was so blue, and her textbooks were also brand new...

Xia, who had been planning to fool people, thought in despair that Lily would never show her the notes if she didn't tell the truth.

Someone else? Who could take better notes than Lily?

Xia hugged Lily's arm and said, "Oh, Ander and I went on a night out."

Xia, who was always observing Lily's expression, swore that she could tell from Lily's raised eyebrows that she really wanted to assassinate those boys!

"We found the kitchen of Hogwarts! The house-elves are really good at cooking. I ate several puddings and jellies."

"House elves? What's that? Pudding jelly is indeed delicious. I always have this for dessert."

Xia quietly made a "V" sign behind Lily's back, but Lily, whose attention was successfully diverted, didn't notice Xia's sudden relaxation.

"Only some traditional and ancient wizard families adopt house-elves, and they have served wizards for generations. To gain freedom, their masters need to give them a piece of clothing. However, they believe that gaining freedom is a shame. Moreover, they will punish themselves after disobeying their masters' orders, and they will not stop unless their masters stop."

Xia told Lily everything she knew, "But we don't have house-elves at home. There are some in the manors of my grandparents, but we are rarely there and don't know much. The library should have relevant books, and we can go and have a look when we have time." She also copied Lily's notes.

Xia felt that she was a master planner. Lily, who was attracted by her attention, would definitely not blame her for not attending the class and only relying on notes, hehe.

"Friday then." Lily silently put the matter of looking up the house-elves into her planner. "Hurry up, we still have Herbology class."

Thinking of the busy schedule, Xia complained bitterly. Except for Friday, it was full of classes! Full of classes!

"What?! Are you serious?" If they weren't still in the library, Lily almost shouted out. Fortunately, Madam Pince's intimidation was strong enough, so Lily just lowered her voice, but the shock and anger in her tone could not be concealed.

"?" Xia, who was busy making notes, raised her head and looked at Lily across the thick book. "What's wrong?"

Lily pushed aside the books that were blocking their way and placed the book about house-elves in her hand between the two of them.

"Look, 'House-elves are a race conquered by wizards in ancient wars. Every one of them is trained as a slave from birth and must serve their masters for generations.' There is no salary, no holidays..."

After reading the book, Lily let out a long breath and sneered, "Ha, what's that?"

Snape, who was beside Lily, also pulled himself away from the world of potions and looked at the contents of the book. "House-elves? Why are you interested in them?"

Yes, that's right. Snape, that Snape.

Until now, Xia was still surprised that he could sit with a Gryffindor other than Lily. No matter what the other party thought, Xia felt a little uncomfortable.

It's not that she didn't want to, but Snape's calm acceptance made her feel a little uneasy. She didn't think she could be immune to Snape's ridicule. Merlin - could Snape be possessed by something?

"I'm assuming if you knew what you were doing you would be looking at your textbook instead of staring at me. There is no History of Magic on my face, Miss Hopps."

Oh, that's right. Xia immediately felt relieved. It seemed that she was not possessed by a strange creature. If she could say so, she must be the original Severus Snape.

After calming down, Xia suddenly felt that she was sick. It would have been fine if others didn't scold her, but who would have thought that she would invite others to scold her.

She patted her head and was seen by Snape. "Ha, it seems you really have no brains."

"Tsk, damn it!" Xia clenched her fists. She knew clearly that her fighting ability was no match for Snape. "Lily, am I really that stupid? History of Magic is so difficult."

"You are so good at Transfiguration and Defense Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic will not be difficult for you. If you are not sure, I am still here." Lily put her hand on Xia's head and rubbed it. Mm, it feels really good. She touched it quietly again, and after being satisfied, she continued to immerse herself in learning about the history of house elves.

Xia noticed Snape's darkened face and raised an eyebrow.

Yay, the first battle between Shia and Snape was a complete victory!

Snape really couldn't understand what this Hopes girl was thinking. Was she trying to get Lily's attention to provoke him? He had to say that this was a very good move, and he remembered it.

Immersed in joy, Xia had no idea that she was in Snape's grudge notebook. Even if she knew, she wouldn't be afraid because she believed that Lily would not ignore her.

Hey, Lily.

She is such a good girl, beautiful, generous and smart!

Quiet and happy times are always short-lived. None of the three people present expected such a peaceful atmosphere to be suddenly interrupted.

"Xia? Why are you sitting with this Slytherin?" James suddenly appeared in front of Xia.

The discrimination in the academy is really serious. Even Xia frowned after hearing it, not to mention Snape and Lily who has a good relationship with Snape.

"James, this is a library, keep your voice down."

"Besides, we had a lot of fun studying together. You can't say that."

Xia chose a gentler approach, she couldn't reject James in front of outsiders but she also didn't want to go against her own heart and agree with James' words.

Perhaps it is still possible to prevent their conflict from getting worse. There is no need to think about improving the relationship. In the era of Voldemort, we cannot expect Slytherin and Gryffindor to have a good relationship.

So Xia chose to ignore the little incident with Snape over her favor. Snape looked at her as if she was a troll, as if he didn't expect her to say anything to defend him.

"Hey, what's with that look?" Ender noticed Snape's look and spoke in dissatisfaction.

"Oh, I just didn't expect that a Gryffindor would speak for Slytherin." Snape's slightly sarcastic voice made the situation a little out of control.

His words obviously angered the Gryffindors present.

"Huh? Including me?" Lily was annoyed by the continuous quarrels, "I thought you heard what Xia said - this is a library!

She glared at everyone equally, including Snape, who smacked his lips in disapproval, which Sirius happened to catch.

"It seems that he doesn't agree with what you said, Evans."

Please stop talking. Xia felt like she was about to break. She didn't want to give up on either side. It was so hard to be a balance master.

After hearing what Sirius said, Lily stood between the two groups of people, protecting Xia and Snape, and said coldly: "He is my friend, I will know if he is dissatisfied with me, you don't need to remind me, Black."

Oh, she is so cool, Xia commented on Lily for the umpteenth time, she is worthy of being the best witch in Gryffindor and even in the whole Hogwarts. If Lily knew, she would definitely blush and ask Xia not to be so exaggerated.

Snape on the side looked like he had eaten a rag covered in vomit. Ha, standing on the same front as a Gryffindor. Apparently, the future Professor Snape divided Gryffindor into two parts - Lily and Gryffindor.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The war is about to break out, all it needs is a fuse!

Well, the fuse is gone, having been extinguished by Madam Pince.

"Everyone, leave the library now, immediately, immediately!"

No one wanted to offend Madam Pince who was furious. "Yes, ma'am, we will leave now."

Several people left the library in dejection.

"Oh, I also want to check Ani...the Patronus Charm." James almost said his purpose but was bumped by Sirius and suddenly changed his words.

"Patronus?" Xia felt much more comfortable after leaving the library and finally being able to speak loudly.

Lily, who was very interested in learning, put aside her previous unhappiness and joined the conversation: "I remember that this is a high-level spell, not within the scope of the first grade."

"True, but isn't it cool that a first year can learn a spell like this?"

Ender's words aroused the approval of the group of little wizards. Children always have unlimited energy and a heart that yearns to become powerful.

Everyone wants to be the most powerful and special person, especially those with talent. They just happen to be a group of talented little wizards.

"Okay, if you want to learn, can you take me with you?" Lily asked reservedly. If she remembered correctly, she almost had a quarrel with the other party just now.

"Of course, I said." Xia thought there was no better opportunity to promote the relationship between the two parties!

Ender and the others didn't care. When Snape met Lily's gaze, he blocked his words of refusal and nodded in agreement with a pale face.

"Very good, then we need to find a suitable place to practice, preferably with some material support." Lily decisively arranged the subsequent tasks.

At this moment, both sides wisely chose to forget what had just happened.

No one wants to quarrel, for now.
