Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

The first meeting of the Slug Club is over.

Except for a little accident in Emma, ​​the banquet was a success. Thanks to Slughorn's precise vision, everyone who attended this party met a group of people or came from different backgrounds. Noble, or gifted companion.

It was a rare opportunity, both for those wealthy nobles and for a genius as poor as Hermione.

The most valuable asset in the wizarding world today is neither powerful spells nor expensive magic materials, but talent!

Whether it's an old pure-blood nobleman or a half-blood upstart like Mike, their thirst for talent is eternal, and a Muggle or half-blood genius like Hermione or Harry's mother is their best Investment objects, they usually win over each other by tilting a lot of resources, and the most common and ultimate means of winning is marriage.

Blood relationship or family relationship is always the best tool for forcing others to stand with oneself. This has been the case since ancient times.

But this is also a good thing for those geniuses who are not well-known and very poor. After all, in this way, they can not only obtain various resources to accelerate their growth, but also obtain a super high social status through marriage. .

Therefore, as an upper-class social tool, the role of the slug club is unquestionable. It not only allows the nobles to quickly get to know those unknown talent seeds, but also allows them to make a more efficient exchange of interests. Grab more benefits, mutual benefit, and as the founder of the club, Slughorn will also gain a lot of benefits and prestige.

This is the ultimate goal he wants to achieve with his continuous efforts, and from the current situation, Slughorn has done well. Through his years of hard work and the bond between teachers and students at Hogwarts, Slughorn has En's Slug Club has extended its tentacles to all walks of life in the entire European wizarding world. If he is given some more time, maybe he can create a super club that does not belong to the Extraordinary Apothecary Association or even Raven's Claw!

There are a lot of smart people who see this at Hogwarts, but not everyone is eligible to join the slug club.

Like Drake and Pansy.

Not to mention Pansy, she is very self-aware, and with the current decline of the Parkinson's family, she believes that no Slughorn will let her join the slug club, even though her father was one of them. a member.

So she just grumbled on her lips.

But Drake is different,

He really couldn't understand what the old guy Slughorn was thinking in his mind. It would be fine if he didn't invite him. Even his request to join Slughorn was ruthlessly rejected. !

Yes, that's right, Drake approached Slughorn the day after the first banquet at the Slug Club, and after an unpleasant negotiation, Drake was completely stunned. Become a little embarrassed.

Immediately afterwards, Slughorn, the former head of Slytherin, was boycotted by a group of radical Slytherins headed by Drake. The direct result of this was that Slughorn's magic The pharmacy class turned into a disaster.

"Ah! My potion! Merlin's beard! Who did it!"

In the potions class, along with a huge explosion, a Hufflepuff scream resounded throughout the classroom, and everyone, including Mike, looked over at the same time.

I saw that the four-person operating table was in a mess at this time. A tattered crucible lay slanted on the operating table, and the unfinished hot potion was scattered everywhere. The owner of the house was poured all over his head and face, and now the places where the potion was splashed have become red, which is burnt.

And the three people who were on the same console as him were even more unlucky. Although their injuries were not as serious as that man, the aftermath of the explosion of the cauldron also completely scrapped the potions they had made halfway through!

Hufflepuff's area suddenly wailed, while the students of other academies behaved indifferently.

No way, this is already the tenth crucible explosion accident this month, and they have already seen it.

There was even a burst of schadenfreude from Slytherin, of which Drake smiled the most proudly, and still cast a provocative look at Slughorn.

This move immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of all the people present. Everyone knew very well that all the explosions of the cauldrons must have been caused by the Slytherins. The best thing is that the cauldrons of the Slytherins never exploded once. prove!

But unfortunately, they didn't have the slightest evidence to prove that this was what the Slytherins did, even if Slughorn had consciously been on guard against the Slytherins.

Staring at Drake angrily for a while, Slughorn reluctantly withdrew his gaze, this time he still didn't grasp the other party's handle.

He quickly waved his wand, and a gust of water poured out on the Hufflepuffs, washing away the remaining medicinal liquid on their bodies.

"You, you and you, send these people to the infirmary, their burns are serious!"

Slughorn gave a quick order, and the boys who were named immediately stood up and stepped forward to help the Hufflepuffs to the infirmary.

They were very skilled in this set of moves. After all, Slughorn called them a few every time.

Strictly speaking, it will affect their studies, but they enjoy it because there are bonus points for doing it.

Then Slughorn quickly instructed the rest of the classroom to start cleaning up the console, and after everything was done, it was time to end the get out of class, and Slughorn reluctantly announced the get out of class. .

The Slytherins left the classroom arrogantly, which made Slughorn furious.

"Thanks to" the other party's small actions, his original teaching plan has been greatly delayed, and if the development continues like this, the students of this period will not be able to complete this year's studies at all!

Slughorn secretly made up his mind that he must find a way to give this group of arrogant children a bit of power!

On the other hand, Mike, Harry and others also left the classroom early, but instead of returning to the lounge as usual, they blocked the door of the classroom and stared at the students who were passing by.

After a while, the person they were waiting for appeared.

I saw Hermione hurriedly came out of the classroom with a thick stack of books. She had a very heavy task today, not only to complete the homework of ancient Rune, Transfiguration and Potions, but also to prepare for tomorrow's work. Course, must return to the lounge as soon as possible to start learning!

However, before she stepped out of the classroom door, Mike and Harry drove her up and walked out of the castle.
