Atonement of HP

"Then, Mr. Snape, Slughorn's apprentice, you may begin. This year's topic is 'Mediation'." A wizard with a short beard ticked the "Severus" on a piece of parchment. Snape", Slughorn's apprentice?He gave Snape a high look, and the latter walked into his room with a blank expression, looking to arrange the potion ingredients on the table.This was Snape's habit. Before officially brewing the potion, he had to memorize every ingredient in his hand and stabilize his mind during the process.

Hellebores, evening primroses, daffodil roots, wormwood, snake teeth... Snape muttered their names one by one in his mind. Although most of them were not needed when brewing the palliative, Snape Nep had to know where they were, just in case.

"Very well, let's go," Snape said to himself, taking out his silver knife and began working on the hellebore, the main ingredient in the palliative.Snape was actually a little puzzled why the Apothecary Association took this kind of potion that ordinary wizards would have learned in potions class in the fifth grade as the content of the A-level pharmacist exam, so the standard for him to pass must not be purely compounding. Come out so easy.

Either top grade or improvement, Snape has no third way to go.

Side pressing, cutting, crushing... Soon, the pure essence of hellebore was squeezed out by Snape.But this is not enough. What any fifth-year Hogwarts student with excellent potion grades can do is not enough to impress the shrewd old wizards of the association, improve, and improve on the basis of top grade.

Snape put the hellebore essence into the crucible, and then quickly took a snake fang and crushed it. Few people knew that adding a little snake fang powder to the moderator could improve the quality of the moderator itself, and speed up The time it takes for the drug to work.Put the powder of snake teeth into the crucible that had turned bright yellow, and the potion began to turn dark yellow.Snape then cleaned the entire evening primrose. He put his nose close to the cauldron, while carefully controlling his magic power output, while looking for the best time to put the evening primrose in.

Looking at the potion slowly turning dark yellow in the cauldron, Snape was rarely distracted in the process of boiling the potion.

Ever since Narcissa semi-forcibly "invited" him to the engagement ceremony between the Black family and the Malfoy family that day, Snape has recognized his role in this life. Showing its strong inertia, Lucius is still going to be with Narcissa, and he looks like he will become a Death Eater sooner or later. Thinking about Dumbledore's attitude towards himself, I am afraid that the last double agent is still Can't run away.

After all this time, Snape would be doing him a disservice to his intelligence if he didn't see that Lucius' distance from him was out of protection.He can understand Lucius' thoughts, and knowing his experience of becoming a Death Eater in his last life, Lucius will do his best not to let him be called a Death Eater.But... Snape smiled bitterly. After Abraxas died, the potion master behind the Malfoy family would surface sooner or later. Rather than being caught at that time, it is better to stand in front of the stage and fight for the initiative.

But things backfired. Lucius' determination was probably too great. Double-sided mirrors, owls...all the ways Snape could think of to reach Lucius were blocked, and the only one that was said to be the Portkey Snape didn't dare to use the ring at all - Merlin knew what kind of trouble his uninvited entry would cause Lucius.So Snape has not been able to explain his thoughts clearly to Lucius so far. The other party's "the sky is falling and I will stand against it" made Snape think he was stupid and a little moved.

But no matter what thoughts he had with Lucius, it should be put away after he attended Lucius' engagement ceremony.Snape continued to stir the potion with a blank expression. No matter what Lucius did to Narcissa, they would only be friends from then on.

Friends... Snape felt a little sad. In his last life, this title brought Snape the final touch and guilt. In this life, this title is more like a mockery of his incompetence and a curse of fate. Anyway, as long as he is Snape What Pu wanted, he never got.

The potion in the cauldron slowly turned brown. Snape added evening primrose as if he had suddenly come to his senses. Immediately, the brown was neutralized again and turned into bright yellow.

Turning off the flame and filling the bottle, Snape looked annoyed at the discordant dark colors under the clear bright yellow in the potion bottle. His distraction still missed the best time to add evening primrose.

"Severus Snape." The door opened, and it was the wizard who led Snape out.

It was a rotunda, and there were less than ten wizards of various ages waiting there, almost all of them had long beards, and a few of them did not look like Englishmen.

"Recommended by Slughorn, Severus Snape, palliative, A-level pharmacist certification." With a brief introduction from Snape's wizard, Snape handed over his potion bottle.

As soon as they saw the clear yellow color, two old wizards nodded with smiles all over their faces. They rushed at this color, and the quality above the middle grade could not escape.

"Huh?" An English speaker with a German accent was surprised in his voice: "This is an improved palliative!"

Now these wizards look at Snape differently. Of course, there is a reason why this year's exam questions are so simple. Unexpectedly, a fifth grader from Hogwarts came up with an improved work!

A group of wizards began to experiment with the efficacy of Snape's palliative, and after a while, most of them showed obvious satisfaction.No matter in terms of the time and duration of the potion's effect, and the purity of the potion, Snape's palliative has obvious advantages. The only regret is that the quality of the potion as a whole is not up to the top grade.Maybe it's because of the technique, maybe it's because of the heat, but it makes the Pharmacists Association more satisfied. After all, a talented pharmacist who is only in the fifth grade and a pharmacist with potential are different in the eyes of their group of old scholars.The former is hated by people, while the latter makes people willing to cultivate.

"Mr. Snape, how is your teacher doing?" The smart people had already started planning to make a relationship after Snape became a teacher.

"Professor Slughorn is fine these days." Snape showed his etiquette.

The Pharmacist Association is more satisfied. Look, they are talented and know how to behave. Their expressions are now more kind.

Snape successfully obtained the A-level pharmacist qualification, because Snape was too brilliant, and Miss Prince's moderate palliative did not pass the test after all, which also made Miss Prince's face more and more gloomy in the following time , People also became silent.

--------------------- I am Snape preparing to attend the engagement ceremony ----------------- -----

Before the arrival of the Christmas holiday, the whole Slytherin, no, the whole Hogwarts knew that Slughorn had trained a pharmacist who was even better than the heir of the Prince family!In just one year of teaching, his apprentice has successfully obtained the A-level certification. Slughorn has passed away recently, not to mention that many of his old friends are full of sour letters when they write to him. Angrily praised him for "finding a good student".

Snape didn't change much, but Slytherin adjusted his strategy again. Occasionally, a few minor nobles began to show their favor to him. It can be predicted that if there are no accidents, he will leave after he leaves the army. The same way as Professor Slughorn, as long as he doesn't meet the rebellious lady of the Black family.

Of course, Lily and the gang of Jiedao also got the news, Lily didn't say anything, as far as she could remember, there was no special greeting relationship between her and Severus, let alone Potter by her side , I have to admit that without the uncontrollable jealousy towards Snape, Potter's performance can be regarded as remarkable, at least Lily has started to befriend him.

Lupine and Peter sighed privately. They didn't have any direct grievances with Snape, and now they just think that this Slytherin half-breed really has two brushes.

But Sirius, his pure blood gave him a subtle

Shame, not to mention the snot-nosed man he has always looked down upon.Thinking of being kicked out of the house and having to live in the house of his best friend, while Snape started to rise to the top and enjoy the glory of Slytherin, Sirius felt like they were princes and beggars on the side of the road a few years ago , the difference is that a few years later the prince became a commoner, and the beggar became the king's son-in-law!

Sirius felt a little twisted in his heart, if it wasn't for the delay of Animagus, he would have made Snape cry, he thought darkly.

During this period of time, the robbery foursome have gained nothing. Potter has gained Lily's friendship, and Lupine has gained the honor of being a prefect. Apart from these, their biggest achievements are the Marauder's Map and the Marauder's Map. Animagus' success.

The absolute cheating device of the Marauder's Map was successfully used in the last summer vacation, and most of the time they took turns keeping it, which is why last time Peter could see three other people together; They had just succeeded, and at Christmas, all four members of Jiedao decided to stay in school, and they wanted to give Lupine a surprise.

Soon, the Christmas holiday came, and Snape returned to Spider's End alone.

Pulling out the double-sided mirror that Lucius gave him, Snape looked at the gray mirror with some emotion. Except for the strange magic pattern on his wrist and the ring that couldn't be taken off, this double-sided mirror could Said that Lucius had the only connection with him.

He thought about Narcissa's invitation, and about the engagement ceremony he was going to attend in a week. Snape summoned a dark green box, and he placed the two-way mirror nicely on the gold velvet cushion inside the box.There was no letterhead, no signature, and Snape looked at the engagement gift he was going to give to Lucius, feeling very ironic.

What was supposed to happen had finally happened, he hadn't changed anything, nothing could have changed.
