Chapter 76: My Dear Students
The turmoil in the wizarding world came and went so quickly that by the time some wizards were ready to continue protesting to the Ministry of Magic, the turmoil was over, prices were back to their original levels, and shops were open again.
It doesn't seem to be any different from before, and it may even feel better, better than when it was against black and white.
As a result, the fear and resentment of Voldemort and the Death Eaters seemed to have faded all of a sudden, and the wizards, who were immersed in grief, seemed to have become a little angry.
For example, the Weasleys have already started shopping in Diagon Alley, the eldest of the Weasleys, Bill Weasley, will be promoted to the second year next semester, and in September next year, the second Charlie Weasley will also be enrolled in Hogwarts.
This means that when Severus was teaching at Hogwarts, there may have been members of the Weasley family who were always at Hogwarts, and all of them would be Severus students.
It's a terrible family, and thankfully not every Weasley is as fond of pranks as twin brothers, and not every Weasley has a savior friend, and the other Weasleys are pretty good.
Although he saw Mr. Weasley, Severus didn't have the slightest intention of saying hello, he just walked calmly out of Gringotts.
Severus didn't have much property in Gringotts, and he didn't come to get his own money this time, he got Hogwarts money.
As the largest bank in the wizarding world, Gringotts, like a Muggle bank, provides essential financial services to large clients, such as bookkeeping and simple income and expenditure reimbursement.
Severus, on the other hand, was to reimburse himself for the cost of purchasing potion materials.
There were already a lot of people on the street shopping for school supplies, and in a short time Severus met several waves of students wearing Hogwarts uniforms, but most of them were Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs, Ravenclaw only had one or two, and none of Slytherin had been seen.
Don't say that Slytherin doesn't need to shop, although most shops in Diagon Alley offer home delivery, almost all wizards prefer to come to Diagon Alley in person before school starts.
The new little wizards must come, and they must come and choose the wands themselves.
Older students from other grades will also come with their parents.
Most wizards are more homely, or like today's office workers, they rarely have time to spend with their families, and the school season is the default parent-child shopping festival in the wizarding world, whether it is busy parents will come to accompany their children to buy school items.
After all, Hogwarts is a boarding school, and once school starts, children can only be seen during the holidays, and Hogwarts students do not go home on weekends, and there are not many holidays in the year, almost only on big holidays.
Therefore, accompanying shopping is equivalent to a carnival before parting.
At the same time, most children will also take the opportunity to ask for something else, such as a certain item they have always wanted, or take the opportunity to ask for pocket money.
To be honest, Chinese parents don't do much now, and the convenience of online shopping has also brought about a reduction in communication, and parents have less and less time to spend with their children, which is not a good thing.
Therefore, although there are many big and small things in the wizarding world, the family relationship has always been relatively good, like Sirius who fell out with his parents, and Severus who didn't care about his parents was still relatively few.
Well, maybe a little more this year.
Some students may have lost their parents, while others may have parents locked up in Azkaban.
That's why I haven't even seen a Slytherin student for so long!
That night, Severus once again walked into Malfoy Manor, where a banquet was taking place, and Severus was one of the main characters.
One of the purposes of the banquet was to congratulate Severus on his claim to be Master of Potions, the highest honor Slytherin had achieved in recent years after Voldemort, and Severus on his ascension to the position of Head of Slytherin House.
Therefore, although many people have made irresponsible remarks about Severus's "traitor" status, most of them have come, at least it seems that there are many people, not just two or three kittens.
And it's not just adults who come, some bring their children, and some young children even come alone.
For example, the one in front of Severus, who looked like he was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was supposed to be in the sixth grade when school started, and he directly blocked Severus at the gate, and his face was gloomy, with an expression that Lao Tzu was a villain.
"You're Severus. Snape? Slytherin's new Headmaster? The visitor looked at Severus with a grim face, his eyes glancing back and forth unscrupulously, "Slytherin traitor, coward willing to be a dog for an old madman!" …………”
Severus just looked up at him, this kid must have been waiting at the door, but this kind of small role that looks like a front station is not worth noting.
Severus just stared at him as he was about to get his expletives out, with the professor's murderous gaze, of course.
And the other party really shut up, not a little challenging.
"I'm sure everyone here already knows who I am, so I don't have to introduce myself, and I don't have any idea of getting to know you." Severus walked straight in, and then said quickly and smoothly as he walked forward.
Severus had no idea of greeting Lucius, the relationship between the two was not yet exposed, and this time it was only an invitation sent by Lucius as a representative, not a banquet by Lucius in his own name.
The relationship between the two is limited to what they say, and they have cooperated a few times, but they can't be friends like friends, more like simple collaborators.
Severus didn't plan to give anyone face, he was going to slap his face and pretend to be forced this time, put two cruel words first, and then see who jumped out and smoked whom.
Now Severus has the qualifications to be presumptuous, and this way treats the pure-blood nobles of Slytherin origin with miraculous effect, no matter how cunning the Slytherin is, but there is one thing, they worship the strong more than the wizards of other houses, and the strong have the qualifications to be presumptuous.
That's why Voldemort gained so many fans in Slytherin.
"I know what you're worried about, but as long as he doesn't get me in trouble at school, I can give him the necessary protection." Severus unleashed his magic as soon as he entered the door, and the words of this stream mixed with the huge Wia were still very convincing.
And Severus is indeed willing to provide a certain amount of protection, after all, he is his own student when he arrives at school, and it is the teacher's duty to protect students, and showing his strength also shows that he has the ability to protect students.
But there are clearly those who feel that this is not enough, that there is no basis for words, and that deterrence alone is not enough to convince everyone, let alone give in, and even bend down.
"Hmph...... How can you keep us safe, unless you dare to swear! ”
Sure enough, someone still stood up, and this is still a young "chicken".
The adult wizards who can stand here are all capable people, at least they can endure it, and the young people, after all, have not been beaten by society.
So the young man who spoke quickly flew out of the crowd, and he fell directly into the atrium over the gate.
None of the people in the room could see Severus's movements, and Severus didn't chant the incantation.
It's a silent magic!
"I'm just a professor, if you want to hide in your parents' arms, don't come out and be embarrassed!"
