Chapter 79: School Starts
The dinner went well, after Severus was gone, of course.
After crushing Avery in two moves, Severus wanted to have another famous scene of one person fighting a group, but it was a pity that those noble lords and young masters did not give this opportunity.
Therefore, Severus can only regret that he did not play well today, and he must let you see again when he has the opportunity.
After a few harsh words, he turned his head handsomely and left.
Real men never look back!
Then, the atmosphere of the dinner party began to become harmonious, and these young and old began to gather together, talking about how to work together and fight Gryffindor when they arrived at the school, and talking about the current situation in the wizarding world.
They all subconsciously ignored Severus. Snape, no one mentioned him anymore.
But that's not to say they don't know what that means, at least to show that Severus has the strength to protect students at school.
Don't think that professors don't need to be too strong, just look at who the people who become deans and presidents are.
If you don't have some strength, it's impossible to gain a foothold among students, so don't think about students respecting you, this point is common everywhere.
For example, in today's schools, generally speaking, the better the school, the higher the level of teachers, which is not only the relationship between leaders and colleagues, but also the students play a very big role in this.
The better the student, the more questions he has, and the more difficult the questions, and many of the questions are out of the book, if you can't give a reasonable explanation, or have a reasonable explanation, gradually he will not ask you questions, and similarly, he will have less and less respect for you, and even directly doubt your teaching level.
And there are some students who like to find problems for the teacher very much, his purpose may not be the problem itself, he just wants to see that you can't, to see you make a fool, they often take "picking mistakes" for fun, and even compare with classmates, "How many problems have you picked out today?" "I think there is a problem with what the teacher says", etc., if you become such a teacher, do you think about how you should teach?
So students will push you to improve!
Not to mention that some students will set some "traps" for the teacher, he will deliberately find some questions to ask you with the wrong question, or read the wrong answer, he will say "the answer is to choose B" and let you explain to him, but if you "reasonably" explain why you chose B, he will not admit that he read the wrong answer, he will only feel that the teacher's level is limited!
In this case, this will test the level of the teacher even more, and even many old teachers will make mistakes.
The same is true at Hogwarts, where it is normal for students to ask professors some questions, and there are also cases where professors help students practice their skills, such as Professor Slughorn.
When he explained the Horcruxes to Voldemort, he probably had this reason, and if he wanted to maintain the dignity of the professor, he couldn't make students think that you didn't know!
Similarly, if a student doesn't like you, he may play some pranks on you, as has happened to Professor Quirrell in the Philosopher's Stone and Umbridge in the Order of the Phoenix.
And the ghosts in Hogwarts, Peeves can also play tricks on the professor, if you can't solve it in front of your students, how do you convince your students?
So strength is important, especially in these times when the conflict between Gryffindor and Slytherin is intensifying.
If two gangs of people fight, and the spell flies around, you can't stop it, or even get knocked down by the spell that you don't know where it came from, it will definitely become a laughing stock.
And a powerful dean will also be more convenient in the pull bias frame, isn't it.
Severus will definitely do this, who makes Dumbledore, a white-bearded old man, very good at pulling the bias, then as the head of Slytherin, if Severus can't get some back for Slytherin, Slytherin can only be bullied to death!
When returning to Hogwarts from Malfoy's Manor, first ask the house-elves to prepare a dinner, Severus hasn't eaten until now, he went directly to Malfoy's Manor from Diagon Alley.
When he was at Malfoy Manor, Severus had thought about finishing his meal before leaving, after all, the Malfoys dinner was much better than the dinner at Hogwarts.
Hogwarts meals are almost always the same, or that's all there is to the everyday food in England.
All day long, potatoes, pumpkin, fried chicken thighs, chicken cutlets, pork cutlets, etc., anyway, either boiled or fried, and then dessert.
If it's still the original Severus. Snape's words were normal to eat like this, at least much better than the food they had when they were children, just like Harry Potter and Ron, who were very satisfied with the food at Hogwarts.
But for Severus, who fuses Zhang Jin, it is a little uncomfortable, this kind of boiled, fried, and sweet food contrast is too strong, and the key is the green vegetables? If you only have a vegetable salad, you won't make any other vegetables?
Yes, after Severus asked for it, the house-elf brought another tomato soup!
Angry, I really want to lift the table!
That's why Severus eats most of his meals in his office, and he can ask the kitchen to bring him something special, such as a steak, some pasta, and some baked greens, thanks to the house-elves!
Of course, Severus didn't know how long the house-elves had practiced to make Severus's satisfying meals, and how many trays they had broken!
I still have time to discuss this with Dumbledore, Hogwarts meals are indeed too monotonous, which is not very healthy and will cause a lot of waste.
It's also a shame that in the magic world, food is not very expensive, if this was put in Zhang Jin's school, it would have been criticized for being so wasteful.
It was another quiet day, and Severus stayed in his office, busy brewing potions and handling potion materials.
Before the start of school, he had to sort out all the potion materials and instruments to be used in the seven grades, some of which needed to be handled in advance, and some of which needed to be fresh, and which needed to be booked in advance, all of which had to be recorded and prepared in advance by Severus according to the course schedule.
Therefore, Potions class is really a cumbersome course, especially for Potions professors, who spend more time on Potions materials alone than other teachers combined.
Look at Professor McGonagall, after picking up the new students, she has gone on vacation at this time, and now only Severus is still busy at Hogwarts except for Dumbledore.
Of course, Filch was busy cleaning up the castle, but he wasn't a professor.
I really want to take the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, it's better to study the potions yourself, and as for the Potions class, whoever likes to take it, anyway, our Professor Snape doesn't want to take it!
The days passed slowly in Severus's resentment, and finally came to September 1, 1982.
Hogwarts is back!
