Chapter 1251 Wild Boar and Duel (Part 2)

From Elena's perspective, large-scale conflicts between parents are nothing.

The protection of Hogwarts Castle and the magic spells of the professors are still very trustworthy, not to mention that there are little wizards around.

As long as it is not similar to the "Battle of Hogwarts" in the original world line, then most conflicts are nothing more than friction.

Moreover, the Hogwarts "Magic Book (Student Edition)" does not have any "confrontation" function, and this kind of emotional excitement is mostly a small functional misunderstanding.

Just like the Hufflepuff Academy grade issue, as long as the parents sit down and explain it, they should be able to calm down, Elena comforted herself.

She and Hannah quickly walked through the constantly changing stairwell, and Filch and a group of enthusiastic helping parents followed closely behind - as Filch asked for help, almost all the parents of Hufflepuff House, The students all stood up and actively expressed their willingness to go to the top to mediate the conflict... That was a group fight between parents, a scene that had not happened in decades.

"Elena, aren't you going to expand your Valkyrie form? If there are multiple adult wizards fighting above -"

"Except for extreme circumstances, deploying the Valkyrie Armor is prohibited in Hogwarts Castle."

Elena glanced at Hannah next to her, shook her head slightly, and said in a rare serious tone.

"This is a rule I have set, and I do not intend to violate it for the time being - the magic armor is designed for war-level confrontation in open areas, not for campus law enforcement."

"The Hogwarts castle area is too narrow, and there are too many students. Even the most basic 'light wing expansion' may cut through the castle wall. It is really too dangerous."

Especially...under the special circumstances of Albus Dumbledore's temporary absence.

The large-scale restoration and remodeling of Hogwarts' castle requires not only superb attainments in transformation magic, but also the "approval status" of the principal's authority.

In other words, if she accidentally caused widespread damage in Hogwarts Castle, no one would be able to help her use "Time Backward" to deal with the aftermath.

"This way, Elena, this way - but..."

Hannah said worriedly while quickly identifying the direction.

"That is a conflict that even Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick and others cannot mediate. Why do they think you can-"

"Is there a possibility that, um... I mean, I'm not the one responsible for mediating."

Elena whispered thoughtfully, looking across the stairs to the floors above.

There, countless magical lights were flashing continuously, and the explosions and collisions of magic were vaguely mixed with noisy shouts and cries of pain.

In Elena's perception, a powerful and calm magic vortex was swallowing up the surrounding noise little by little, just like the lava slowly flowing from the crater of a volcano.

"Don't forget, I am the only wizard in Hogwarts who has the qualification of an intermediate healer and is proficient in the 'healing magic text'."

"Everyone at Hogwarts knows that I am actually better at healing and comforting people than destroying or fighting."

Ignoring Hannah's eyes that were about to roll out, Elena frowned slightly and looked at the magical light above in confusion.

"But what I'm a little curious about now is what those parents saw in the magic books..."

It is not difficult to quell the dispute. Whether it is Grindelwald, she, or even Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick, it is easy to do it under full firepower.

The real difficulty lies in how to ensure that the "warring parties" can effectively communicate and find a balance after they are temporarily separated.

The conflict between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw parents is obviously very different from the conflict between students.

In the adult world, the outbreak of conflict often means that both parties believe that verbal communication is temporarily ineffective.

Elena was not too surprised that such a situation would occur in Gryffindor House. After all, little lions have always been impulsive.

However, judging from the "firefight location" informed by Mr. Filch, this conflict obviously originated from Ravenclaw Academy's initiative.

Elena really couldn't think of anything that would make so many parents so angry.

after all……

Even the legendary school bullying...

Gryffindor's target can only be Slytherin, right?

As for the issue of puppy love, Elena immediately ruled it out.

You know, this is the British wizarding world, Hogwarts, not a distant and conservative Eastern country!

Regardless of parents, professors, or even the public opinion environment of the magical society, no one has ever cared about the issue of puppy love on campus.

Uh--that's how it should be, right?

…………

A few dozen minutes ago, the Gryffindor common room.

Gryffindor House is not a place for people to quietly reminisce about childhood memories.

Just like the history of magic class, most Gryffindor wizards have no interest in "history".

Oh, of course - except for adventures and gossip.

especially……

"Wow, let's face it, the dean of Slytherin House is not a pure-blood wizard!"

"It's incredible. Was Professor Snape so poor that he couldn't even afford a robe when he was a child? No wonder he wanted to learn potions."

"Isn't the Potion Master even more embarrassed? After all, potion materials are so expensive——"

"Are you stupid? What price does the Potions Master care about?"

"Hey, compared to these - haven't you noticed? Professor Snape and Harry's mother are childhood sweethearts?"

The gossip of ordinary wizards may not be that attractive. After all, there are many stories about "Wuma" hybrids or the rise of poor boys.

However, when the protagonist of the story becomes Severus Snape, Dean of Slytherin, recognized as the cold-faced iceberg killer, everything is completely different!

As Aunt Petunia narrated, the little wizards and parents of Gryffindor House came over one after another, standing or sitting around Petunia, listening to the gossip happily.

Even in the end, even Sirius, Lupin, and even Professor McGonagall walked to the edge of the crowd out of curiosity - but out of the professor's reserve, they still tried hard to restrain their curiosity and try not to get involved with the students and The discussion among the parents was divergent. After all, they had to eat at the same table with Severus Snape every day.

"Childhood sweetheart? Well, of course. In fact, for quite some time, I even thought that he and Lily would get together."

Aunt Petunia glanced at the student who asked the question, her eyebrows raised high, and she responded to various questions around her more and more freely.

As a housewife, this gossip atmosphere is all too familiar to her.

More importantly, for the first time in history, she could finally tell all kinds of stories freely without worrying about the strange eyes of the people around her.

"Huh? What happened later? What happened? Why -"

"Well, I don't know the specifics. I just remember that one summer vacation, she suddenly said that she and Snape had broken off their relationship."

Aunt Petunia shrugged, turned her head to look at the dark-skinned girl who exuded some kind of wild beauty, and answered casually.

"As for later, she got together with that Potter...and then two years later, well...Lily married that Potter as soon as she graduated from this school."

boom!

It was as if someone had lit a Weasley-made firework in the lounge.

The entire common room instantly became lively, and many little wizards' eyes were shining and they were about to jump with excitement.

"Breaking off the relationship?! Is it because Harry's father——"

"Wow, I didn't expect Professor Snape to have been dumped when he was a student!"

"Don't say this nonsense. If the professor hears it, you will have all your Gryffindor points deducted!"

"It's okay, we still have Harry anyway-"

"...Professor Snape, he and mother are just friends."

Harry looked at the students around him and defended in a low voice, a little reserved and awkward.

Compared to others, Harry felt that his brain was a little too messed up. He didn't even know how to face Professor Snape after today.

if……

As Aunt Petunia said, Professor Snape was once her mother's suitor, even...

"Well, I don't know if Lily ever liked Snape, but I'm sure Snape definitely liked Lily - at least."

Before Harry could finish his thoughts, he heard Aunt Petunia say decisively, her tone full of nostalgia and a hint of imperceptible regret.

"You can't hide the look in your eyes that you like someone. That guy Snape has liked to look at Lily and me secretly since he was a child. In the beginning, he would ask Lily to go out almost every summer vacation."

"But, in the end, Harry's mother still chose Mr. Potter, right?"

Before a new round of noise broke out, Hermione glanced at the embarrassed and helpless Harry, and finally couldn't help but interrupt.

"Judging from the results, they seem to be the most suitable..."

"Maybe. But the strange thing is that Lily hated that Potter very much at first... really hated that kind."

Aunt Petunia raised her eyebrows disapprovingly and snorted with disdain, obviously not having a good impression of James Potter.

"Anyway, I remember Lily said that Snape was often teased by Potter and several of his friends at school."

"I even doubt whether that Potter used any tricks - after all, he seems to like to use magic to tease others."

"Absolutely not! I saw with my own eyes how Lily and James fell in love with each other. Right, Remus? I mean - us."

At this moment, a voice suddenly broke in.

Everyone turned their heads subconsciously and saw Sirius Black looking at Petunia Dursley with a dissatisfied look on his face, frowning and saying.

"People from Gryffindor House never bother to use small tricks. Only people from Slytherin House do that. Of course, Lily didn't like Potter at first..."

He looked at Harry and nodded with a smile, blinked nimbly, and made a quick face.

"Lily thinks James is arrogant, arrogant and likes to play Quidditch - but these are also the most attractive things about James."

"Lily has been dating James since the sixth grade. It is inevitable that there will be times when students are immature and make mistakes, but sooner or later everyone will become mature and steady."

"Your father is a standard Gryffindor. He and Snape...well, you know, it seems that Slytherin and Gryffindor are not born to deal with each other."

"Frictions and conflicts are inevitable, but like every Gryffindor troublemaker, we have always been very measured -"

boom!

Bang bang bang!

Before Sirius could finish his words, there was suddenly a violent knocking sound coming from the direction of the common room door.

There seemed to be sounds of a fierce argument between the Fat Lady and someone.
