Although Snape always had a greasy hairstyle and looked sloppy, he was definitely the top bachelor at Hogwarts.
A Potions Master, who was also Voldemort's right-hand man and a Master of Curses. This middle-aged man who looked like a loser was definitely a famous figure in the outside world. What made him the most memorable was still his outstanding Potions skills.
Although Leon didn't know how rich a Potion Master who controlled high-end potions was, it was definitely an unimaginable number. At least, Leon felt that way. Otherwise, he wouldn't have set his sights on Professor Snape.
After all, Snape was going to die in the future. Leon felt that he was more suitable than leaving his legacy to Harry Potter, whom he hated and could do nothing about.
As for changing the future and keeping Snape alive, Leon said that it would depend on the price Snape offered.
" The same question has a different difficulty in the eyes of different people. This is the difference between you. Chris's perfect answer, Slytherin, plus ten points!”Snape gestured for Leon to sit down, then turned around to scold Harry and Ron. He then gave Leon a break and continued his lesson in a good mood.
Just like Transfiguration, the first lesson was always theoretical knowledge, so that the young wizards could understand the subject they were going to learn and prepare for future lessons. After the potion class ended, everyone began to pack up their books and leave, but Leon chose to bid farewell to Hermione and stay.
"Mr. Chris, do you have any questions?”Due to Leon's previous behavior, Snape's current behavior was considered gentle.
"I want to explain to you why I was late.”Leon replied with a smile.
"There's no need to explain, Madam Granger has already told me that you've been detained by Professor McGonagall, did you make a mistake in Transfiguration? If so, you'll have to earn back the points you lost.”At this, Snape's smile vanished.
Obviously, this old bat was very concerned about the School Championship Competition and the points.
"No, on the contrary, I earned fifteen points for Slytherin, and Professor McGonagall kept me because Professor McGonagall and I were conducting an experiment on Transfiguration Counter-Curse, which may soon be published in Transfiguration Today.”Leon quickly explained.
"Oh, so you're here to show off to me?”Although his words were a little sarcastic, Snape's expression softened a lot.
"No, I just felt obliged to explain why, I was very fond of Potions, and I'm sorry I didn't make it to your class.”Leon answered seriously.
"There's no need. You seem to have mastered a lot of knowledge from the books. This class is dispensable for you.”Snape felt quite comfortable hearing this, and even spoke much more casually.
"As a member of Slytherin, I greatly admire your achievements in the field of potions, Dean. So, if you need an assistant when refining potions, I would like to try to apply for this qualification.”Leon said while suppressing his disgust.
"Are you also interested in potions? If that's the case, I'll look for one when I have the chance. After all, who would refuse free labor?”Snape raised his eyebrows and looked at Leon. After a moment, he nodded and agreed.
"Thank you for your nurturing. Oh right, I still have some potions here. They were given to me by someone else. I don't know the effects and quality of these potions. I wonder if I can ask you to appraise them?”Leon heaved a sigh of relief. He had achieved his goal. Next, he would have to make friends with Snape and become one of his own.
"Someone gave me a potion. Show me.”When Snape heard this, he frowned again. After all, he also knew that Leon was born into a Muggle family. It was strange that someone from such a family would give potions.
Leon didn't waste any time. He took out the happiness potion, tranquilizer, and love potion from his wallet and placed them on the desk in front of Snape.
Snape's face turned odd as soon as he saw the potion; he could tell what it was even without smelling it.
" A bottle of tranquilizer and a bottle of ecstasy. They are all potions used to adjust one's mood. Just from the name, you can tell their effects. As for the last bottle…"
Snape pointed at the last bottle of love potion that shone like a pearl under the candlelight and teased Leon with a narrow face,"Aphrodisiac, the one who gave you the potion was a little witch, right? Do you need me to introduce the effects of this potion to you?”
Admittedly, when Snape saw the aphrodisiac, his heart was hit by some dog food, but considering Leon's outstanding appearance and talent, he felt that it was only natural.
"No need, I have a rough idea.”Leon said half-heartedly and then asked the question he really wanted to ask,""How much are these potions worth? If possible, I want to sell them.”
"Are you short of money?" Snape asked immediately when he heard Leon's voice.
"Yes, as of now, I owe Headmaster Dumbledore two thousand gold coins.”Leon pretended to be depressed.
"Two thousand gold coins? What do you need so much money for?" Snape was shocked by this figure. Although it wasn't a lot of money for him, what shocked him was that Dumbledore had actually lent so much money to a little wizard. Could it be that his headmaster felt that he was going to retire and was preparing to force loan sharks to earn his pension?
"Experimentation and research on magic.”Leon's answer was a little vague. After all, he couldn't tell Snape where his money went.
"How old are you, and you've just entered Hogwarts, and you expect me to believe you?”Snape looked at Leon with disdain.
"But that is the truth. You know that I have mastered the art of the Silent Curse, and have learned many curses at the same time. All of these were accumulated by borrowing Galleons.”Leon's answer was the truth. Although there was a rhetorical trick in his words, he was telling the truth. Therefore, his expression looked very natural and sincere.
Snape was convinced. After all, it was strange for an eleven-year-old wizard to master the Silence Spell, and he was a Muggle-born child. Now that he had a reason, it seemed not difficult to accept.
