Chapter 813: Side Story—Seeking Death!!

Almost everyone knows about the cold war between Snape and Darren.

Because Darren used to look at Snape with very warm eyes; even if I wasn't sure if he was acting, I knew he liked Snape very much. ===== CHAPTER 1737 =====

But recently, the look in his eyes when he looks at Snape isn't 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 angry?

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.

I’m exhausted.

I just put the potion ingredients in a little late, and he emptied my potion.

I pretended to be like everyone else, shedding tears in fear, while cursing him in my heart to be shunned 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 isn't angry with Snape anymore, so why did he block a 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 smiled, 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, an invitation to the Dueling Club was posted in the Hufflepuff common room.

Hannah and the others were very excited.

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

But when I asked them carefully, 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 with others?"

"Let me tell you, I’ve already thought of several outfits for Darren that are suitable for dueling; they’re especially handsome, I think..."

Hannah and the others went off to discuss how to dress Darren to make him 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 will 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 gasp.

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

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

That fool Lockhart probably thought Darren was sincere and stood up, wanting 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 hit by an Impediment Jinx released by Darren.

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 Darren being the only one sobbing 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 didn'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 that incident had a huge impact.

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

But he still kept talking.

I saw that the way many people looked at him 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 sitting on the side 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.

How can someone like to seek death so much? Lockhart, who was seeking death, should have also planned 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 movement.

How miserable.

And no one sympathized.

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

Next, Snape threatened Lockhart, and he had to stand up, probably planning to pick a soft persimmon to bully.

Cassandra raised her hand.

She made Lockhart grow moss all over his body, looking like a green toad.

Because he was full of anger, Lockhart started badmouthing Slytherin.

I really wanted to say, "Professor, stop seeking death."

You’re badmouthing Slytherin like this, and you’re just a 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 pointed fingers at 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 1738 =====
