Chapter 653: Our Children!!
Snape was stunned for a moment.
He looked at Darren, then at Cassandra.
However, he finally said: "Miss Vole, I think with your upbringing, you should apologize!"
"I'm sorry, I..."
Cassandra apologized quickly.
However, after she finished saying sorry, Darren interrupted the rest of her words.
"Then, I should have won, right? Professor?"
He looked at Snape.
Snape snorted.
"Yes, Potter won; his Armor Charm blocked all attacks. If Miss Vole has any objections, she can propose a rematch."
"I, I don't..."
Cassandra shook her head quickly.
Then she watched Darren turn and walk off the dueling ring.
Without looking back.
She watched Darren's back for a while, and after a good while, she raised her chin high and said arrogantly: "Then, next is the female prefect. Come over, challenge me, and take this position!"
The selection of the female prefect was almost meaningless.
Because Cassandra's subsequent attacks were even more terrifying.
Several female students were injured.
They could only go to the infirmary on the first night of school.
Finally, even Snape couldn't help but warn Cassandra.
If she maliciously let any student disturb Madam Pomfrey again, he would let Cassandra taste the flavor of his potions.
This finally made Cassandra calm down....
Early the next morning.
Snape called Darren to his office.
He took out a stack of course schedules.
On it were the course schedules for every third-year student.
Of course, at the very top were Darren's and Cassandra's.
Darren took the course schedule well-behaved.
He was just about to leave when he was stopped by Snape.
"Why did you make Cassandra Vole apologize yesterday?"
Snape knew Darren's temper.
He shouldn't be so heartless.
He couldn't have missed Cassandra's concern for Darren.
Darren was a bit conflicted.
He was just annoyed by Cassandra's attitude yesterday.
That's why he said it directly like that.
Now he had to think of a way to explain.
【Ding, detected a scene where the Saint Father system can be utilized around the host. Now issuing a temporary task: say to Snape in a gloomy tone:
I know Cassandra is good to me, but I actually understand that there must be many dangers around me.
Before, she was the prefect, and I was just a student following behind.
Even if I were in danger, it would only be me in danger, and it wouldn't implicate her.
Now if we are both prefects, there will definitely be more entanglements. I hope she won't be implicated by me.】
【Ding, after the task is completed, you will receive the reward skill: Half-heartedness. Does the host accept the task?】
【Accept!】
Darren immediately clicked accept.
The system is truly his good helper.
Of course, he couldn't just say it exactly as the system said.
He still had to change it a bit.
So he revealed a hesitant expression on his face, and finally said stutteringly: "I, I just... hate her, I..."
As he spoke, he couldn't even continue himself.
Snape revealed a mocking expression.
"You still have feelings of hatred?"
He was extremely disdainful.
This stupid kid is silly, and he can hate others? He didn't even lie well, he should have made it up better.
"I hope you can explain it clearly to me, otherwise I will, I will arrange for Miss Vole to go out with you often!"
"No, no, no, Professor, I'll say, I'll say!"
The expression on Darren's face became panicked.
He opened his mouth, and finally said somewhat helplessly: "It's like this, Professor. Yesterday you told me to be a prefect and let Cassandra help me, so I wanted to do that.
Before, Cassandra was a prefect, she had to be busy with many things, so she didn't have much entanglement with me.
But this year, if I am also a prefect... we might be together more, I'm worried...
I'm just afraid she will be hurt because of me.
I thought, if I just ignore her, if I break with her in public, would those people just focus on me?
Actually, I don't have many friends in Slytherin... everyone actually just sees that I'm pitiful and helps me out.
Cassandra even more so can't stand to see me wronged, so she always sides with me. Last year, she even helped me vent in the Dueling Club... I don't want her to have an accident, nor do I want her to be implicated by me... How could someone like me, who could die at any time, implicate others?"
【Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill: Half-heartedness】
Half-heartedness: Can do multiple things at the same time (as long as you, the host, are willing) Huh?
