Chapter 1894: Chapter 1040: Soul Device
After experiencing the events on the train, enduring the lengthy sorting ceremony, and undergoing an interview, the little wizards chatted a bit before they fell asleep in exhaustion back at the dormitory, ready to begin their school life...
It should be a slight time confusion when the worlds merged, as the first day of school this time coincides with a Friday schedule.
And for the first-year Gryffindors, Friday’s schedule included only two classes, both of which were Magic Potion classes, and were with the Slytherin students.
Even though Harry had noticed a bit of Snape’s attention on the train, he didn’t dwell on it at the moment.
The little wizards, who were not yet familiar with Snape, were excitedly chattering about their first class.
"Magic Potion, Tao Yu concocted an Awakening Potion, and its effect was quite good. I think I still feel some remnants of the potion, feeling very energetic after waking up."
Harry began boasting about Tao Yu’s feats, practically turning into a little fanboy.
"Oh, if it were Tao Yu, I wouldn’t be surprised if he concocted a Revive Potion by now."
Ron’s expression was somewhat exaggerated as well.
The little wizards were prone to idolize, and now Tao Yu appeared omnipotent in their eyes.
"But I think if we don’t hurry, the stairs will change direction soon, and you’ll definitely be late if you wait for the next shift."
Tao Yu reminded Ron and Harry from the side.
The little wizards’ dawdling caused them to leave the dormitory later than planned.
Almost as soon as Tao Yu’s words were spoken, they felt the staircase begin to shake, then turn, connecting to other entrances like traffic lights at an intersection.
"Oh, no!"
"I don’t want to be late for our first class."
Ron, Harry, and Neville felt some despair and looked hopefully at Tao Yu.
"Don’t look at me, I won’t be late."
Tao Yu casually flicked his Magic Wand, and then he floated up, swiftly flying to the intended destination.
"Good luck."
After landing, Tao Yu waved his Magic Wand with his back towards the three, as if saying goodbye.
Being late for class would teach them a memorable lesson so they wouldn’t dare next time.
"Oh my, cast a Flying Spell and whisk us away."
"Oh, you can’t use that spell on little wizards, it’s dangerous."
Tao Yu didn’t stop and soon disappeared from the three’s sight...
...
Originally, in the Magic Potion classroom, although it was the first time for the Gryffindor lions and the Slytherin snakes to attend class together,
the animosity between the two houses extended to the new students, resulting in a slightly awkward atmosphere.
Malfoy, noticing that class was about to begin, mockingly said,
"Aha, it seems our Red-haired Weasley and Harry Potter the Savior are going to be late for their first class."
He emphasized "Potter" and had a mocking smirk.
"They’re trapped on the stairs."
Before the class started, Tao Yu stepped into the classroom just in time, found an empty seat, and casually answered Malfoy’s question.
Tao Yu’s presence instantly eased the previously tense atmosphere in the classroom.
Even the little Slytherins had a good impression of Tao Yu personally, and many still expressed gratitude.
Even Malfoy was somewhat embarrassed and felt the need to explain,
"I wasn’t talking about you just now."
"Uh-huh, I know, but you’re eleven now, already a little grown-up, you should be a bit more mature, there’s no need to fuss over trivial matters every day."
Tao Yu replied casually.
Malfoy was the typical spoiled child, but behind every troublesome kid was an even more exaggerated parent; as for Malfoy himself, he wasn’t beyond redemption.
Tao Yu’s off-hand comment, however, made Malfoy blush a little.
At this age, children are especially sensitive and eager to prove themselves, so Tao Yu’s calm words were even more impactful.
Bang~
The large door on the other side of the classroom opened as Snape, clad in a black robe, walked in like a bat.
The sound of the door opening, combined with his imposing presence and the sudden drop in temperature, immediately commanded everyone’s attention.
"Having your first class as a Magic Potion class is your honor."
After Snape established his presence, his tone remained somewhat indifferent.
"Magic Potion covers everything, containing endless possibilities. Many spend their entire lives glimpsing only a fraction, but I can teach you how to enhance reputation, brew glory, and even prevent death..."
It must be said, as a guiding figure just entering the Wizarding World, Snape’s mysterious, powerful, and cold demeanor fulfilled most people’s stereotypes of a wizard.
The Slytherin students were thrilled, and even though the Gryffindors seemed subdued, they too were eager to learn about magic potions.
In terms of ability, Snape was considered top-tier within the Wizarding World.
"Now, we’ll begin the roll call."
Snape picked up the roster, but as he did, he paused and scanned the classroom once more.
Even though it was a combined class of students from two houses, Snape, with his strong spiritual power as a top-tier wizard, keenly noticed that a particular student he was focused on was absent!
