Chapter 124: Improved Potion!!

Snape sat slumped in his chair and covered his face.

How many times has this been?

This old man always finds ways to harm that little Potter cub.

Every time he has all sorts of sufficient reasons, making it impossible for him to refuse—but why must it be like this?

That little Potter cub is clearly a fool who is kind to the point of stupidity.

Why must you keep your eyes on him to harm him?

"He is too kind; I always feel uneasy."

Dumbledore said gravely.

Snape laughed mockingly.

Yes!

No one can be this kind; kind to the point of acting.

But…

Snape had to admit slumpedly again that the child was indeed consistent inside and out.

"Dumbledore, the kindness you can't achieve doesn't mean he can't!"

Snape mocked.

Dumbledore wasn't angry either.

He sat opposite Snape, waited for him to calm down, and then said with some emotion: "Yes, yes, you are right; I really can't be like Darren. People praise me as the greatest white wizard, not attached to power. Actually, they don't know at all that I was also a jerk once. If it weren't for some things happening, I wouldn't be like this now. I might have been even crazier than Voldemort, and might have been stirring up trouble throughout the entire wizarding world."

Dumbledore sighed, shook his head, looked at Snape, whose expression was still somewhat painful, and continued softly: "I'm just worried that this child will go astray. You and I both know that no matter who it is, having that child's experiences, it's impossible to remain kind. Yes, he was really kind once, but after entering this magical world, with the famous Harry as a comparison, Severus, aren't you worried about him?"

Snape closed his eyes.

Worried, how could he not be worried?

He was worried every moment that that little Potter cub would become depressed, painful, sad, and jealous because of the comparison with Harry Potter.

Both he and Dumbledore underestimated the sensation Harry Potter caused in the wizarding world.

Everyone in the wizarding world knew Harry Potter.

Some people regarded Harry Potter as an idol.

Some regarded Harry Potter as a lifelong enemy.

But it must be said that Harry Potter was in an environment where he was the center of attention.

People who liked him, seeing him enter Gryffindor, would all show a look of 'as expected,' even praising him for his pure heart and for being a warrior.

People who didn't like him, seeing him enter Gryffindor, would also disdainfully say 'as expected,' that guy belongs there.

And at the same time, Darren Potter was the object of their comparison.

He had heard more than once from the other three houses that Darren Potter was not a good person; if he were a good person, how could he have entered Slytherin?

Coupled with the fact that Harry Potter hadn't looked for him for nearly a week after school started, everyone had almost formed this understanding.

With such talk,

he would of course worry that Darren would change himself. No, he wasn't worried that Darren would become less kind, but worried that he would go astray.

At that time, no one would know what would happen.

He didn't want Lily's child to fall to that level.

"See, you yourself don't really believe in him either, do you?"

Snape mocked himself silently in his heart.

But he still insisted: "Even so, I cannot allow Potter to truly receive the Cruciatus Curse. If Voldemort knew that the greatest white wizard insisted on watching the Potter cub be subjected to the Cruciatus Curse, he might laugh his head off!"

"Ah, Severus, you imagine me too badly. I said it already, I just want to go to Slytherin to observe little Darren's punishment, not to change what punishment he receives."

Dumbledore shook his head with a smile.

His eyes looked at Snape frankly, without any cunning inside. ===== CHAPTER 126 =====
