Chapter 689: Attentive Lupin!!
Darren stood there, his face pale.
He had bitten his lip, and a trace of blood remained on it.
His body was covered in dust.
Yet, his expression remained resolute.
The Boggart in front of him had changed into someone else.
It was a boy covered in blood.
He was on the verge of death.
He seemed to be the only one among these people who smiled at Darren.
Only those who had seen the projection ball knew that he did not have a shred of pity for Darren.
Before dying, he had seen Death Eaters rushing toward Darren, which was why he smiled, hoping to divert Darren's attention.
Even in death, he wanted to take Darren with him.
"Potter... Darren... can you come over... I'm really so scared, I'm going to die..."
His smile became increasingly eerie.
Darren seemed to be bewitched; he subconsciously walked toward the boy.
Suddenly, he realized something.
He raised his wand.
All the students clenched their fists.
They were nervous, they were expectant! Then.
Darren suddenly threw away his wand, rushed up, and began to pummel the Boggart that had turned into the boy.
As he hammered away, tears fell from his eyes.
"I did nothing wrong, I never did anything wrong, you are the ones who are wrong... I shouldn't have been afraid of you in the first place..."
"Ahhh!"
"Roar roar roar!"
"Hahaha!"
A burst of cheers erupted from the classroom.
It all came from the group of students in the classroom.
Even the Slytherins, at this moment, let out laughter that did not fit their usual aloofness.
They laughed, cheered, and made a ruckus.
It wasn't until Lupin walked over with Darren that Harry and Malfoy were shocked to discover they were actually holding each other's hands.
(Just a joke, no slash fiction here.)
Once they realized this, they hurriedly let go of each other's hands in disgust.
Fortunately, the whole classroom was like this, which saved them from social suicide.
"Thank you, thank you everyone... I might still be a little afraid of them."
"But I won't blame myself so much anymore, I finally overcame some of it... I..."
"..."
Darren's voice was somewhat choked with sobs.
Some of the more sentimental Slytherin and Gryffindor students had long since started shedding tears.
Darren noticed that Cassandra's eyes were also a bit red.
However, she immediately lowered her head to hide her ungraceful behavior.
"Very good, excellent, Darren. In view of your strength, 20 points to Slytherin!"
Clap, clap, clap!
Applause rang out in the classroom.
Even the Gryffindor students were not dissatisfied; they gave Darren a thumbs up.
Perhaps Darren was not considered the bravest in Gryffindor.
After all, when encountering such things, he had been tormented for so long.
But kindness is not the same as bravery.
Darren overcame the guilt he felt because of his kindness; isn't that worth celebrating?
If there were anyone outside at this moment, they would certainly be frightened.
Because there were actually Slytherin children yelling and shouting inside.
This was simply unimaginable.
But fortunately. ===== CHAPTER 691 =====
