Chapter 793: Side Story—Cassandra Side Story!!

Hogwarts finally started school again.

Lockhart held a Dueling Club.

It was a contest between the Head of House and Lockhart.

Watching that idiot’s worried gaze, and his fear for the Head of House, Cassandra felt speechless.

Did the Head of House need him to worry?

The Head of House, she didn't know about others, but he was definitely steady against Lockhart.

And, she didn't know if she saw it wrong.

When the idiot said he was worried about the Head of House, a look of pride and showing off flashed in the Head of House’s eyes.

Of course, when she looked again, it was gone. Perhaps she saw it wrong? Cassandra thought uncertainly.

And then Lockhart flew.

Yes, Lockhart’s flying motion made her laugh.

Watching that idiot anxiously run up to support Lockhart, she leaned in with interest.

She wondered if that idiot would realize Lockhart was just a good-for-nothing.

Huh?

Still hadn't realized it?

Did the idiot really believe Lockhart just didn't perform well? Uh.

This time, even the Head of House was a bit uncomfortable.

Lockhart flew up again.

The idiot was clearly shocked. He hurriedly wanted to save Lockhart.

Just.

Pfft.

The idiot’s spell hit Lockhart.

Looking at Lockhart’s hideous expression, Cassandra even felt a bit of sympathy for him.

But seeing the idiot’s panicked and apologetic look, she felt Lockhart was too pretentious.

It was just being hit, he didn't fall!

Even if there really was a problem, wasn't there Madam Pomfrey? She thought unhappily.

And then she saw that Lockhart seemed to threaten the idiot; he wanted to duel the idiot?

Which nerve was misfiring? The idiot would definitely win.

But the threatened idiot might really go easy on him.

Whatever, let him go easy; after all, if the idiot didn't do something, he would definitely feel guilty.

And she figured not many people would think Lockhart could win fairly.

It was just that she still underestimated Lockhart.

It would have been fine to just start directly; letting the idiot go easy on him could still fool a few ignorant girls.

But he actually brought up what happened before again.

Watching the idiot’s eyes gradually turn red, Cassandra glared at Lockhart. Just as she was thinking about whether to secretly cast a jinx on Lockhart, she saw Lockhart actually sneak-attack the idiot.

The idiot waved his wand and sent him flying.

Looking at Lockhart’s condition, he almost fainted in an instant.

Serves him right!

Actually sneak-attacking.

Did he think the idiot was him?

For people like Darren, they weren't afraid of sneak attacks at all.

Otherwise, how did he catch so many Death Eaters alone? But the idiot was scared to death.

He was almost crying, hurriedly wanting to send Lockhart to the hospital wing.

But he was stopped by the Head of House.

The Head of House was particularly nasty.

He actually used Lockhart’s reputation to threaten him.

It seemed the Head of House was really like the rumors, particularly disliked Lockhart.

Lockhart compromised.

He stood up and wanted everyone to duel together.

However, he shouldn't have mocked the idiot one more time.

The idiot was just careless, he didn't do it on purpose; why didn't Lockhart say he was the one who was despicable?

Cassandra volunteered to duel Lockhart herself.

Lockhart saw she was a girl and underestimated her, but ended up being hit by her jinx, covered in moss, like a toad.

She originally thought this was just a prank.

Who knew Lockhart would actually start cursing, calling Slytherins, except for Darren, despicable and shameless people.

Cassandra subconsciously looked at the idiot.

The idiot wouldn't think so too, would he?

Although she was venting for him, he was always so kind... he shouldn't be willing to accept such a prank, right?

Cassandra suddenly felt her mood drop.

She looked at his expression carefully again.

His expression was becoming more and more serious.

Perhaps he really couldn't stand her doing this.

But...

Cassandra pursed her lips, and she suddenly felt wronged.

See, you’re always thinking about that guy; he’s not really on the same path as you... you should have realized it this time, right?

Not on the same path... just like her mother said, a wolf fell in love with a sheep!

Cassandra even wanted to turn and leave.

She didn't care about Lockhart’s thoughts on Slytherin; after all, that was what everyone thought.

But she couldn't not care about that idiot’s impression of Slytherin.

Yeah, the last time he was attacked, it was all Slytherins...

And she seemed to have acted too extremely.

In his eyes, it must be unforgivable, right? Just.

"Professor, I think Slytherin is friendly!"

Cassandra, whose hand was held by the idiot, turned completely red.

She actually hadn't heard what the idiot said at all, and had forgotten what she had said herself, and returned to the Slytherin common room in a daze.

Just before entering the dormitory, Pan Xi said jealously in her ear: "Someone seems to have had their hand held today, tsk tsk tsk, looking at someone’s appearance, I thought someone had gone stupid!"

"I, I was just too shocked, that’s why I didn't pull away!"

That’s right, that’s it! She said this, but the corners of her mouth quietly curled up...

"Feel it well!"

Pan Xi curled her lip and passed by her.

Cassandra’s fingers quietly curled; it took her a while to remember she had to return to the dormitory. Christmas had arrived.

The idiot still had to stay in the dormitory.

She didn't go home either.

She told her father she needed to write something; right, the homework wasn't finished yet.

Wasn't it normal for second-year homework to be heavy?

She thought righteously.

And then she saw the idiot, Crabbe, Goyle, and Malfoy walking in from outside together.

Huh, the idiot seemed a bit different today.

Malfoy was the same.

He secretly winked at her, as if wanting her to come over; he wanted to say something.

Who did Malfoy think she was?

Would she, Miss Vole, listen to him?

She sat in the chair and just didn't speak, listening to those people mocking the idiot.

Calling it mockery, in reality, whether it was the idiot or them, everyone understood that this was concern for the idiot.

But the idiot shed tears.

Cassandra frowned and looked at the idiot.

Malfoy gave her a "see" expression. Clearly, Malfoy had felt something was wrong from the start.

Could it be Death Eaters?

But this person really acted just like the idiot; was she overthinking it?

However, she was still a bit suspicious.

So, she let that guy enter the dormitory.

She quietly gripped her wand; if he couldn't get in, then she would just happen to catch a Death Eater.

Nani? He got in? Cassandra was stunned.

The wand in her hand turned back and forth; she just couldn't figure out why.

Was it really the idiot?

She really couldn't figure it out and sat there in a daze for a long time.

Listening to Crabbe and Goyle below asking questions foolishly...

Huh?

Asking questions?

Crabbe and Goyle weren't like this even if they were stupid, right? And...

Their faces started to change? Polyjuice Potion!

She thought of it almost subconsciously.

And she also discovered with annoyance that the person disguised as the idiot seemed to be that Miss Know-It-All.

Excessive!

That idiot actually let someone else use his identity? Did he ask her?
