Chapter 76 27 About the Slytherin Common Room

The orders of His Majesty the Snake King are like sacred decrees at Hogwarts, and even at certain times they are more effective than what the Lord Dark Lord and Dumbledore said.No, after dinner, all the Slytherin snakes, no matter whether they were senior or junior, obediently stayed in the common room, waiting for their Majesty the Snake King to arrive.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the stone door of the common room opened, and His Majesty the Snake King strode in, the black robe behind him still billowing like waves.Severus didn't sit on the throne that Draco and Harry had vacated for him. He drew his wand and moved the chairs, tables, and small benches that were in the way to the corners, leaving a space in between. A large field, as if it was a battle for leaders of all grades on the night of the first day of school.He drew two large circles in the middle of the field, as a duel field for a while, and set up protective spells around them to prevent the spells from flying around and hurting innocent people.

The little snakes stood aside, looking at their dean suspiciously, not quite understanding what he meant.

"Mr. Zabini, Miss Parkinson!"

The two who were called by Severus immediately walked to the empty space in the middle of the common room, and they took off their outer robes together, revealing the black clothes inside.The other little snakes were dumbfounded when they saw it, and turned to look at the two leaders of their academy, and found Draco and Harry with knowing smiles on their faces.

The prefects looked at each other, and they thought to themselves that everything tonight had been planned. Looking at the current situation, this was before the opening of Professor Grindelwald's duel club. In order to avoid Everyone will make a fool of themselves in front of a generation of old devil kings, so I specially come here to give some pointers.Since this is the case, these people have to perform well.

"You two get started!"

Severus stepped aside, sat on the throne Draco had vacated for him, and watched the contest that was about to begin in the middle of the room with a blank expression.At this moment, the stone door of the common room was opened again, and the students turned their heads to see that two Professor Black walked in together.

"Are you going to start?"

Sirius walked to his lover's side, took Harry's seat, rested his head lightly on Severus' shoulder, and beckoned his brother to sit down too.Looking at Draco and Harry standing beside them, holding hands, the godfather of the big dog waved his hand, and two slightly smaller and lower chairs immediately appeared in front of them, and then waved, let The two younger ones also sat down.

"En." His Majesty the Snake King nodded, put his arms around Sirius' shoulders, and said to the audience, "Let's begin."

Blaise and Pansy did not draw out their wands first, then bowed to each other, took two steps, and pointed at each other with their wands like other duels watched by the little nobles, but nodded to each other directly, and looked at each other abruptly. He watched the people on the opposite side cast silent spells one by one.

Of course, Blaise and Pansy are not unconventional or unruly, but they have had such an experience.When I was in Malfoy Manor, I often had an impromptu show after dinner, not Draco and Harry, but Blaise and Ron, and the twins and Neville's one-on-two, and Hermione and Pan Western women's duel.At the beginning, they also imitated the nobles, bowing and so on, but after doing it once, they refused to do it again.Because this kind of duel etiquette was not only judged useless by the Lord Dark Lord, but also severely sprayed by the venom of His Majesty the Snake King, saying that they were putting on airs, and only idiots with their heads squeezed by the door would treat the enemy on the battlefield. Bow, there is time to bow, people have already called you Avada many times.In order to prevent His Majesty the Snake King's venom from coming to them again, the little animals practiced duels again after that, without even saying hello, and directly threw out a small curse as a greeting.

The spell duel between Blaise and Pansy is still going on, because both of them are using silent spells, so, except for a few senior students who have better eyesight and are very familiar with spells, the other little snakes feel that their eyes It wasn't enough, those colorful lights flickered in the common room, and it was impossible to tell what kind of spell these two people were using.

The little snakes, who are in the same second grade as Pansy and Blaise, all looked at the two people dodging left and right in the duel circle with awe, thinking that although they were not as good as Draco and Harry The leader of the academy, but his ability should not be underestimated.The little snakes began to admire these two people from the bottom of their hearts, instead of giving them some respect in terms of their family background and relationship with the leaders of the academy.

"time up!"

Severus looked down at the hourglass in his hand, the 1-minute competition time had passed, and the two kids fought to a draw.The master of potions watched his two students' faces without changing expressions, without even a little sweat on their faces, and squinted their eyes in satisfaction.They have made some progress on the original basis, which is a very good phenomenon, Severus said in his heart.

The little black cat also looked at his two friends with a smile, and took two towels from the small table next to them and handed them over.

"It's wonderful, you guys are so much better." Harry praised sincerely, and Draco next to him also nodded in agreement.

"Thank you." After taking the towel from Harry and hanging it around his neck, Blaise sat down next to Regulus, resting his head on Mr. Black's shoulder. "Uncle Rael lend me a hand."

"Brace, you're really lazy!" Regulus poked Mr. Blaise Lazybones Zabini lightly on the forehead, "Look at Pansy, she's not even a girl. You do."

"Don't compare me to her. Her energy is always so strong and abundant." Blaise rubbed Regulus' shoulder twice, "If you can give me a bed, then I will definitely not It's up to you."

"Dream!"

The two were chatting softly, and there were two more pairs of snakes in the duel circle in the middle of the common room to show their strength, but their competition was far less exciting than Blaise and Pansy.If these two people were considered good just now, then these two pairs can't even be considered as passing grades.

"Duel etiquette?" Regulus snorted coldly, thinking in his heart, if Slytherin students want special training, the first knowledge they need to learn is to abandon these flashy and dispensable things .

As time went by, the hands of the clock on the wall of the common room slowly pointed to twelve o'clock, and there were fewer and fewer little snakes that hadn't shown their abilities in front of His Majesty the Snake King, but His Majesty the Snake King's face became darker and darker. , the little black cat in front of him, who was always alive and kicking, had long been impatient, and officially fell asleep two hours ago.

Finally, except for Draco and Harry, all the students from grades one to seven had finished their demonstrations, and then Severus stood up from his throne, walked towards his students with a cold face, and Severus Rhys and Regulus still sat in their seats without moving.They all knew that after the night's assessment, Severus was very disappointed. These children were really like what Draco said, except for the power of the family and the glory of pure blood, they basically had no What a lot of patience.

Sirius looked at his lover standing in the middle of the common room, then at Draco and Harry who were sleeping soundly head to head, then at Blaise and Pansy, and thinking about Salazar in the secret room Slytherin heaved a long sigh for his house's expectations.If Mr. Slytherin saw the scene just now, he would feel powerless and disappointed like Severus!However, fortunately, it was discovered in time, and there is still time to save them. Fortunately, these children listened to the words of their dean very, very much.

"Although I don't want to, I have to admit that the noble young masters and ladies of my own academy are almost at the same level as the impulsive, empty-headed idiots and stupid lions of Gryffindor. They are basically at the same level. Some Humans, even below their abilities." Severus narrowed his eyes, and his cold black eyes swept over all the little snakes present, seeing them shiver involuntarily, seeing that because he followed them with Gryffindor made the comparison, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face. "Everyone here is a member of Slytherin. Is there any young master or lady who is kind enough to tell you poor dean, what is Slytherin advocating? Huh?"

Severus' soft, almost lover's murmur made all the little snakes tremble after hearing it. They looked at their dean tremblingly, and no one could figure out what stimulated His Majesty the Snake King today. , How could the fire be sent to them.Some people even made a secret decision in their hearts to write a letter to their family after returning to their dormitory and sue their dean.

"No answer? Huh?"

"It's power, Mr. Dean." Pansy, who had been sitting on the edge of the round table reading from the beginning, pulled his head out of the big thick book on the table at this moment, "The reason why Slytherin values Pure blood, because pure blood wizards are more powerful than Muggles and half-blood wizards."

"That's right, Miss Parkinson, twenty points for Slytheringa." His Majesty the Snake King nodded in satisfaction, indicating that she could continue to do her own thing, and then turned her sharp gaze to the other little snakes. "Power, it's a pity that the current Slytherin house, except for a few people, are all empty-headed idiots. You even have a half-knowledge of the most basic things you usually teach in class. If you haven't done it well, it's even worse. Don't talk about powerful power! What qualifications do you have to enter this academy that advocates strength? You are all proud of being pure blood, and there is nothing wrong with that. But according to your performance just now, apart from blood, you can There is nothing else to do except to show it off. Slytherin has a scum like you who can only show off your blood but have an empty mind, and your poor headmaster will blush for you."

"Dean, we..."

"Mr. Nott, please don't interrupt me."

"Yes."

"As your dean, I don't want to see my students can't even subdue a giant monster, and I don't want to see my students make Salazar Slytherin ashamed. So... "Severus raised his eyebrows, "For the future of Slytherin, I have to issue a new rule. Starting tomorrow, after dinner, all people must return to the common room for special training, including all Exam subjects for NEWTs. If your grades do not reach 'O' after one month, then you will be locked up for a whole school year!" Looking at the clock on the wall, Severus decided to end his lecture , "Mr. Blaise Zabini and Miss Pansy Parkinson are your instructors for this special training. Draco and Harry will assist them. If you have any questions that they can't answer, you can go to the office to find me or Professor Black. That's it, the meeting is over!"

"Wait a minute, Professor Snape." The fifth grader who had just interrupted Severus' lecture stopped His Majesty the Snake King who was about to leave, that is, he decided in his heart to write a letter home to explain to his parents that the Dean was nearly to unkind evaluations. "Why Zabini and Parkinson, they can guarantee their NEWTs to reach 'O'?"

"Mr. Nott!" Sirius stretched and stood up from his chair, and walked to Severus' side, "Excuse me, I would like to ask you, if you are asked to practice with one of them If so, how sure do you think that you, who can't even master silent spells, can defeat them?"

"Not at all. But I don't believe they can complete Professor Snape's task."

"Miss Parkinson, show Mr. Nott the book in your hand." Sirius said to Pansy.

"Yes, Professor Black." Pansy stood up from the round table expressionlessly, picked up the big thick book on the table, walked to Nott's side, and put the opened page in his eyes under.

"Will the knowledgeable Mr. Nott translate this passage for me, please?" Sirius pointed to the paragraph where Pansy drew a star at the beginning with a red pen.

Nott lowered his head to look at the densely packed characters on the book. He felt dizzy instantly, and his body shook twice, then pushed the book away from Pansy's hand.

"I'm sorry, Professor Snape, Professor Black, please forgive my rudeness just now." Bowing deeply to the two professors, Nott continued, "I accept the tutoring of Zabini and Parkinson .”

"Mr. Nott, repeat the Slytherin rules a hundred times and hand them over to me next Monday."

"Yes, Mr. Dean."

Some sharp-eyed little snakes clearly saw that what Pan Xi was holding in her hand was a profound ancient magic text tutorial, which was a book that even seventh-grade students might not be able to understand, so they couldn't help but admire her look.No wonder Mr. Dean chose her and Shabini as tutors for extracurricular tutoring. It seemed that they had hidden their truest abilities before.

Severus didn't care what the little snakes thought, and left with Sirius and Regulus, Draco watched his godfather and uncles leave, and picked up the little black cat who was sleeping soundly .

"If you don't want to be ridiculed by the other three academies in the duel club, if you don't want the other three academies to see you make a fool of yourself, then study hard and make up for your own shortcomings. You must always remember that I am starting school As I said at the time, we are Slytherins, and we must have pride, self-confidence, strength, forbearance, calmness, prudence, nobility, elegance, shrewdness, cunning, bravery, and loyalty deep in our bones. But this is not just empty words, but to use Your painstaking efforts and sweat are accumulated, and you have to prove it with your strength. I hope that after a month, your performance will not disappoint the dean again."
