Chapter 1704

But recently, the look in his eyes when he looks at Snape is not as warm as before.

That kind of warmth is untouchable, but it can be felt.

Now that that warmth is gone, how could Snape not be upset?

What leaves me speechless is that he isn't angry at Darren Potter; he is angry at Harry Potter.

Looking at Harry Potter's desperate face, I almost laughed out loud.

Of course, Snape didn't spare us either.

He paced around the whole class like he was breathing fire.

Exhausting.

I just put the medicinal materials away a little late, and he cleared out my potion.

I pretended to be like everyone else, shedding tears in fear, while cursing him in my heart to be loathed by Darren Potter for a lifetime.

But this wish of mine didn't last long.

Because I got news from Hannah that Darren supposedly blocked a small knife for Snape in Potions class.

"His face is cut; will he be disfigured?!"

Hannah said with worry.

I nodded in agreement from the side.

Of course, I was also thinking in my heart that this might be another plot point.

It should be the plot where Harry and the others steal Snape's potion.

But Darren wasn't angry with Snape, so why did he block the knife for him? I can't quite figure it out.

But almost that same afternoon, we had Potions class again.

In the Potions classroom, Snape didn't criticize anyone; he even smiled secretly by himself.

Oh my god, Snape showed a smile, and it was a genuine smile... I almost couldn't believe my eyes.

What good thing happened to him? Could it be that Lily was resurrected? I muttered in my heart.

But I obviously couldn't get the real answer to this, so I could only pretend to be stupid and continue brewing the potion.

I kept wondering when the Dueling Club would start.

Finally, this morning, the invitation for the Dueling Club was posted in the Hufflepuff common room.

Hannah and the others were very excited.

They probably thought that the one teaching them dueling skills would be Professor Flitwick.

But when I carefully asked them, they looked at me with strange expressions.

"How could that be? How could we possibly like dueling? Aren't you looking forward to seeing Darren duel others?"

"Let me tell you, I've already thought of several sets of dueling outfits for Darren; they're especially handsome. I think..."

Hannah and the others went off to discuss what Darren should be dressed as to look even more handsome.

I looked at their backs, speechless.

As expected of you guys!

The ones coming to the Dueling Club were Lockhart and Snape. Hannah and the others were quite happy to see Lockhart.

After all, Lockhart is quite easy on the eyes.

Although everyone knows Lockhart is a straw man, Hufflepuff's focus is never on strength.

Not to mention, Lockhart is quite handsome.

I hope my future marriage partner can be this handsome.

Otherwise, it will affect the next generation's genes.

Lockhart was knocked flying, just like in the original book. I heard the Hufflepuff students gasping.

Of course, the loudest voice was Darren Potter's.

His voice was quite loud, and he even called out "Professor," looking especially worried.

That fool Lockhart probably thought Darren was being sincere and stood up to continue competing with Snape.

Even the Hufflepuff students expressed their condolences for him.

Sure enough, he was knocked flying again.

While he was being knocked flying, he was also hit by the Impediment Jinx Darren cast.

Hiss.

I felt the pain for him.

But the girls obviously didn't feel the pain of being hit there; everyone was discussing how fragile Lockhart was.

The boys crossed their legs and didn't dare to speak.

This resulted in only Darren's sobbing voice in the scene.

He probably did it on purpose.

He apologized very fluently.

Perhaps it was just to show that he is a good person.

If I were Lockhart, I would definitely praise him a few times and then stay far away from him.

Unfortunately, I am not.

Lockhart doesn't have my sense. He started threatening Darren.

He asked Darren to have a match with him.

And before the match, he said a bunch of things about Darren and those Slytherin students from before.

He brought up the deaths of those students.

It was very obvious that he did it on purpose.

Everyone knows that incident caused a great impact.

The way Darren presented himself to the outside world was also one of total collapse.

But he still kept talking.

I saw that the way many people looked at him had changed.

Hannah originally thought he was quite handsome, but now her little fists were clenched, as if she wanted to go up and hammer him.

Plus, with Darren Potter standing there with a pale little face and green eyes full of tears, Lockhart instantly became the target of public criticism.

I shook my head and sighed helplessly.

You say, how can someone like seeking death so much? The death-seeking Lockhart probably still intended to sneak attack Darren.

But unfortunately, he failed.

I suspect Darren was just waiting for him to sneak attack! He knocked him flying with one wand stroke.

So miserable.

And no one sympathized.

Does this person have something wrong with his brain? I was speechless.

Next, Snape threatened Lockhart, and he could only stand up, presumably planning to pick a soft persimmon to bully.

Cassandra raised her hand.

She made moss grow all over Lockhart, making him look like a green toad.

Because he was full of anger, Lockhart started bad-mouthing Slytherin.

I really want to say, Professor, please stop seeking death.

You are bad-mouthing Slytherin like this, and you are just a book-writer with no background and no strength; aren't you afraid of being beaten by those pureblood nobles?

Lockhart must have lost his mind.

He kept talking.

He even accused Cassandra.

He cursed Slytherin as all bastards.

I saw Cassandra clench her fists.

She might be planning to make Lockhart disappear when she gets back.

Her expression was just too obvious.

I mourned for Lockhart.

But to my surprise, Darren held Cassandra's hand.

He said a bunch of things to defend Slytherin and Cassandra; I saw Cassandra's face turn bright red. ===== CHAPTER 1706 =====
