I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - #165 - Chapter 165 Blessing Elixir and Suspension of Class

“It should be controllable…” Ian saw the small gear at the top of the hourglass and felt that it was similar to a time turner and should be controllable manually.

But he did not choose to turn the gear rashly. He always made a move before he was sure. Occasional publicity is only done after careful consideration and when it is certain that there is no danger.

The hourglass was still some distance away, so there was no need to rush. After packing up the items at the top of the tower, Ian decisively chose to leave. He was planning to make preparations now, hoping to verify something before this time travel. Otherwise, he would have to wait another month if he wanted to verify it.

“Call the gods to protect you!”

Waving the wand, summoning the Patronus again, the safe and comfortable apparation of the phoenix is ​​completely standard for traveling in Hogwarts Castle.

Only low-end operators would remember the rules of the stairs…or wander around at night wearing an invisibility cloak and holding a living map, or even go to the professor’s office to steal potion materials.

He hates being sneaky. When doing things, he should do them openly. If he is unable to do so, he should abide by the rules honestly. Don’t be too ridiculous by being sneaky.

…

For example, he is now on the second floor of the castle basement, at the door of the Potions Professor’s office.

“Knock! Knock! Knock”

Knocking gently on the door of Snape’s office. Ian came here for only two purposes, to make a deal in exchange for the elixir, and to apply for a break from potions class. The former was to prepare for his time travel in a few days.

The latter is a carefully considered decision. Not only the potions class, Ian also plans to stop all courses except for the private clubs of professors, leaving only a few elective courses, such as ancient magic texts, Care of Magical Creatures lessons, and Arithmancy lessons.

If it weren’t for the palace-level library at Hogwarts, he would even want to drop out of school now. After all, normal courses, even the graduating class of 7th grade, couldn’t teach him much knowledge.

Back to business.

As soon as the knocking on the door stopped, the office door opened automatically, and he walked in slowly without hesitation.

Snape was sitting in front of the table at the moment, saying nothing, just staring at him with those empty eyes.

He was also used to this. He chuckled lightly and said in a calm tone: “Professor Snape, I hope I didn’t disturb you. I’m here to ask for your help with two things.”

After seeing Snape slightly nodding, Ian took out something he had already prepared from his pocket and placed it on the opponent’s table. It turned out to be the three-month light turtle brain that he had previously purchased from Bojinbok, which was also used to refine the elixir of good fortune. main materials.

“Due to personal reasons, I urgently need some Fuling Elixir, and the time left for me is not enough to brew them. As you know, this kind of potion has always been on the market but priceless, and it is difficult to buy it.”

Having said this, Ian noticed that there was no unhappy expression on Snape’s face, and then continued: “I want to exchange these with you for some Felixir. I know that its value may not be enough to exchange for your potion. , but I can’t help it…”

This was a strategy he had long thought of, exchanging things for things, and at the same time lowering his profile, asking for help, whatever the posture should be.

For a potion master like Snape, he could be praised and coaxed, but he could not be smashed with Galleons. They lacked everything except galleons.

“Ha! You collected a few gadgets on the black market and couldn’t wait to show them off to me? Ian Titus, when did you learn to be so superficial?”

Snape pressed the venom spray button as usual.

“And… you think I will be short of these things? I should accept them immediately and be grateful to you?” Snape said in a rather sarcastic tone.

At the same time, he turned the box containing the Moon Turtle’s brain with his hand, and pointed with his wand at a mark that was so thin that it was almost invisible to the naked eye.

“Bojinbok’s mark, most of the things he has there are defective, especially the potion materials. You are very lucky this time. There is no problem with the Light Turtle’s brain in the past few months, but I hope you know that you will not always be favored by luck. .”

After Snape finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the cabinet containing the finished potions.

Seeing this, Ian breathed a sigh of relief. It was done. Although the other party’s words were a bit unpleasant, the last sentence was indeed a kind of concern, a typical arrogance.

Snape placed a bottle of luxurious golden potion on the table and pushed it along with the box containing the Moon Turtle’s brain. Then he sneered: “Take these treasures that you have finally obtained, and then quickly say your second thing.”

Ian wasn’t angry when he heard this, after all – it was for nothing. If you could get a bottle of elixir after being ridiculed for a few times, people would probably queue up from Hogwarts to Beauxbatons.

After putting away the elixir, he said in a serious tone: “Professor Snape, I don’t really want to take Potions class anymore. In the next one or two years, I will need more time to study by myself in the library.”

The imaginary ridicule did not appear, and Snape was rarely thinking about something.

Then as if he thought of something, he said quietly: “Okay! However, at the end of each semester, you have to brew a potion independently at my place. If one of them fails to meet the standards… Hehe, you know the consequences. “

“Of course. Thank you for the preferential treatment, I won’t disturb you anymore.” After Ian finished speaking, he picked up his things and prepared to leave. That decisive attitude is like a master of love who quickly pulls up his pants and runs away afterward.

But Snape just did this. Not only was he not annoyed by Ian’s attitude, he actually recognized his intelligence.

After leaving Snape’s office, he did not choose to return to his dormitory. Instead, he took out the class schedule and compared it, found the professors who were not in class at this time, and prepared to make requests for suspension of classes one by one.

In fact, he also thought about asking Dumbledore directly to suspend classes, but doing so would not only disrespect these kind and responsible professors, but also hurt and insult them.

After comprehensive consideration, he still chose to apply one by one. The process might be cumbersome, but… nothing in life is easy.

“Forget it, it’s only about two years. At the worst, I’ll apply for graduation after fifth grade. I’ll discuss it with Dumbledore and do some odd jobs at Hogwarts. If that doesn’t work, I’ll work for Hagrid as a gamekeeper’s assistant. Anyway, I’ll start next year. Hagrid will become a part-time professor.”

Ian looked at the class schedule in his hand and thought to himself. After all, he still couldn’t bear to part with the magnificent library of Hogwarts…

…

There were some twists and turns, but the result was perfect. After some sincere speeches and on-the-spot practical operations, I finally got the approval of several professors.

After seeing the actual operation, including Professor McGonagall, they also knew that, as Ian said, you really can’t learn new knowledge in ordinary courses. Instead of wasting your talent and wasting time, it is better to let them study by themselves in the library. .

In fact, Ian speculated that the reason why it was so easy, apart from his exceptional performance, was most likely because he was just taking a break from school, not school.

Otherwise, the upright vice-principal alone would not agree without others telling me. Professor McGonagall has really good intentions for the education of little wizards, and she also regards this educational work as her lifelong pursuit.
