Chapter 42 – Senseless

Wednesday.

On this day, Gryffindor had three classes; Herbology in the morning, History of Magic in the afternoon, and Astrology in the evening.

Today’s classes made Coven very relaxed because the classes with Gryffindor were Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.

Finally, they were far away from Slytherin’s group of crazy brats.

A day passed by peacefully, and Coven did not stand out to add more points to Gryffindor.

If there was anything unusual on this day, it was lunchtime.
Slytherin House received many letters from many owls at the long table.
This also reminded Coven of something he had neglected.
He had been in school for five days, but he had not written a letter to Ollivander.

Before Coven returned to the dormitory, he specially went to the owl shed to pick up his owl.

In the dormitory, Coven unfolded the letter, holding the not-so-smooth feather pen, and began to write to Ollivander.

In the letter, Coven roughly described the life of the past few days and talked about some lessons and studies, and the matter of him adding more points to Gryffindor was also written in a boastful tone.

Coven planned to use the letter as a bridge to let the other person change the tone in the letter to find out that his character gradually changed so that when he meets Ollivander in the future, his character would be too different, so as to pave the way.

After writing down the matters of the past few days, Coven euphemistically requested in the letter, saying that he wanted a pen or an ‘automatic writing quill’.

After checking the letter, Coven put the letter into the envelope, filled up the address, and sealed it with wax.

“Come, come.” Coven greeted the owl who was standing on the windowsill and combing its feathers.

Owlivia was very obedient.
She spread her wings and jumped, gliding over from the windowsill and landing on Coven’s outstretched arm.

“Good girl, send the letter to ‘Ollivander Wand Shop’.” Coven lifted the envelope and handed it to the owl.

Owlivia stretched out her head and opened her beak, holding the envelope in his mouth.

After tilting her head and rubbing against Coven’s shoulder, Owlivia jumped down from Coven’s arm, spread her wings on the ground, and quickly rushed out of the window sill, disappearing into the night.

It was not until he could no longer see the owl that Coven retracted his gaze and opened another letter.

The next letter was for Penelope’s parents.
He planned to give it to Penelope tomorrow morning and let her send it to them with an owl…

…….

The night passed…

The next morning, Coven went to the cliff to train his body and then to the auditorium to wait for breakfast.

After breakfast, Coven handed the letter to Penelope and asked her to send the letter with an owl.

“Oh my god!” After listening to it, Penelope suddenly exclaimed, “I forgot to write to my family!”

“I just remembered it yesterday.” Coven smiled and said, “After all, Schools life has just begun.
There are too many wonderful things, so we neglected other things for a while.”

“That’s right.” Penelope nodded in agreement and then said, “I’ll ask the owl to send a letter later.
During the lunch break, I also have to write a letter to my family and then let the owl send it back together.”

“Of course.” Coven did not care about this.

The two chatted for a while until the class was about to begin.
Only then did they bid farewell and go to different classes.

……

Walking into the classroom, Coven’s good mood couldn’t help but become bad.
Because half of the students in the classroom were Slytherin’s naughty children, at this time, this group of naughty children began to throw ice knives at him with their eyes.

Coven chose to ignore this and found an empty seat to sit down.
He opened the book ‘Potion’ and flipped through page by page to review.

The class bell rang, and the wooden door of the classroom suddenly opened with a bang.
As if someone had kicked it open, it crashed into the walls on both sides of the door.

The students who were shocked turned around one after another and saw a male wizard like a walking bat.
His figure almost did not fluctuate as he quickly walked through the aisle and walked to the side of the platform.

His walking speed was so fast that almost no one could see his face under the loose hair.

The person who came was Professor Snape, the only one whom Coven had not officially communicated with before the start of school.

In the few times they met before the start of school, only the first time was introduced by Ollivander.
After that, Coven would greet politely when they met, but all he got was Professor Snape’s ambiguous gaze, and he had never received a verbal response.

Snape’s voice was almost flat, and his words seemed to contain no emotion, and he liked to lengthen or shorten the time of his words.

His way of speaking couldn’t help but make people feel a chill down their spine.

Coupled with his eyes that made people unable to understand the meaning of his words, almost no students dared to look at him in the eye.

He began the formal lecture.

Snape’s teaching style was similar to other professors.
He first summarized the content and meaning of Potion’s class and then raised a few questions to the students.

Coven had already offended Slytherin’s student.
In order to not continue to offend Slytherin’s dean, after Professor Snape asked, Coven immediately raised his hand.
However, Snape only glanced at Coven out of the corner of his eye, then turned a blind eye and called a Slytherin student who raised his hand to answer the question.

After answering, the Slytherin student was added five points by Snape and raised his head proudly.

At the same time, many Slytherin students cast disdainful looks at Coven.

Seeing this, Coven muttered in his heart, “It’s not a light illness.”

Next, Professor Snape asked two more questions, and all of them were answered by Slytherin’s students.
At the same time, he added ten points to Slytherin House.

At this time, Coven finally understood that Professor Snape was clearly siding with his House.

Seeing this, Coven simply stopped raising his hand to answer the questions.

‘You can play however you like.
It has nothing to do with me….’

After the usual questions were asked, Snape began to teach everyone how to brew the potion for the ‘Boil Cure*’.

[*TL Note: The Cure for Boils (also known as simply Boil Cure) is a potion that cures boils.
It is an elementary potion taught to first-year students at Hogwarts.]

As he listened, Coven was stunned because the unit of measurement that was spat out from Snape’s mouth was really too unfriendly to Coven.

‘What some, what little, what little, what an ounce, what an orchid….’

Coven felt his head buzzing.

Until Professor Snape asked everyone to form a team to configure Potion, Coven did not come back to his senses from these anti-human units.

Coven had no choice but to let his roommate Dana, who was in the same group as him, measure the herbs.
Meanwhile, Coven was responsible for handling the heat and stirring the potion.

When the medicine was finished, Snape came to the side of Coven’s group at an unknown time.
Professor Snape looked down at the potion Coven brewed and then glanced at Coven with disdain.

Coven was confused…
