Chapter 217 - Chapter 217: Wolfsbane Potion

"How could you all be here?"

Under the night, Lupin spoke to the people in front of him, Harry, as well as Emily, Cedric, and John.

At this moment, these six people all had embarrassed expressions.

They had secretly snuck out of Hogwarts tonight relying on the invisibility cloak and Polyjuice Potion, but obviously, these two things could not deceive Lupin.

"Madam Flamel and I were both worried about Link." After a long silence, Emily finally stepped out and said.

And upon hearing this, Lupin also showed difficulty.

The others, he indeed could casually drive away, but Emily was different.

Her matter with Link was already widely known in the high-end circle of the British wizarding world, and Lupin was no exception.

Her fiancé had an accident, and she wanted to come check on him, no one could find fault with that.

What's more, Emily even brought up Madam Flamel.

Gritting his teeth, Lupin finally still nodded, but he also reminded everyone not to get too close to the current Link.

Only, how could Emily and the others listen to Lupin's instructions?

The group cheered and rushed toward Link, and even the trio of Harry got dragged along and began running.

And then, they were all forced back by Arkam and Yoyo.

Emily's expression darkened and she said coldly, "Arkam, Yoyo! Even I you two want to stop?!"

"Sha!"

"Hiss hiss hiss!" (Link is mine!)

Arkam and Yoyo simultaneously opened their mouths and hissed, the meaning already very obvious.

Emily's face grew darker, but in the end, she still retreated beside Lupin.

And seeing this, the others also sullenly withdrew.

"Miss Victoria, you also don't be too angry, Link's two pets... uh..."

Cedric opened his mouth to persuade, but halfway through, he was glared back coldly by Emily's gaze.

In an instant, no one at the scene dared to speak anymore. No one wanted to provoke Emily, the furious Slytherin head.

Just at this moment, Lupin, who had been standing to the side without speaking, suddenly cried out in surprise.

Everyone instinctively looked toward the Black Lake's edge, and saw the sitting figure slowly stand up and walk toward them.

"Link! Are you okay?" Hermione made the first move and asked quickly.

Seeing this, Emily fiercely glared at Hermione, then stepped forward and said, "Link, how are you feeling now? Your mother and I were both worried about you. After all, your illness had just recently gotten better…"

"What?! Link, you were sick? Why didn't I know? What kind of illness?" Hermione cried out in shock, only about this matter, the only person at the scene who knew was Emily.

And she had not the slightest intention of explaining. Instead, she smiled at Hermione as if showing off.

'Compared to you, I'm the one who understands Link the most! How's that? Jealous now?'

Hermione was so angry she nearly ground her teeth to pieces.

"I'm fine. Thank you all for staying with me." Just as Hermione and Emily were about to start another round of bickering, Link smiled and said, "And also, sorry, Professor Lupin, I made you worry."

"Sigh, as long as you're okay." Lupin said with a sigh.

"Sha!"

"Hiss hiss hiss!" (And me too!)

Arkam and Yoyo started causing a ruckus again. Link quickly lowered his head and gave each of their heads a rub, saying, "You two as well, thank you!"

Only then were the two beasts satisfied and retracted into Link's robes.

At this time, Cedric finally found a chance to speak, "Link, I think you'd better first go to the infirmary and let Madam Pomfrey check you!"

As soon as these words came out, the others all voiced agreement.

Only, Link shook his head and said, "You all go back first. I still have some things to discuss with Professor Snape. The remaining check-up can wait until tomorrow."

"No way!"

Hermione and Emily said in unison.

After speaking, the two of them glared at each other again.

Seeing this, Link chuckled silently. First, he gave Hermione a reassuring look, then leaned close to Emily's ear and softly comforted, "Don't worry, I'm really fine. Earlier was just a moment of weakness, it won't happen again in the future. Also, I really do have something important I need to talk to Professor Snape about alone."

Emily's expression changed repeatedly, and in the end, she very reluctantly nodded.

Seeing this, Link also smiled in satisfaction.

Link liked Emily not only because he lusted after her body and due to the obsession and emotional ties left behind by the original host, but more importantly, because of Emily's character.

As the Slytherin head, Emily was domineering but not overbearing.

She would think from Link's perspective, rather than forcing Link to do this or that for her own wishes.

And after parting from Emily and the others, Link didn't even use the Lumos Charm to light the way. He just relied on Super Sensory Charm all the way to Snape's office.

Pushing the door open, Link discovered this place still maintained exactly the same look as the last time he came.

Countless jars soaking various body parts were messily placed on the shelves, the corners of the walls were also piled with empty glass beakers, and the workbench was an even bigger mess with all kinds of tools.

That's right, this place was messy, but messy with a kind of order.

As if the owner of this place had purposely arranged it like this.

Link was long used to this, so after closing the door, he said, "Good evening, Professor Snape."

Snape didn't reply. Knowing that the other party was sulking because he hadn't come for a long time, Link wasn't upset, and just sat down across from Snape on his own.

At this moment, Snape was, as always, brewing potions, but this time, he was brewing two cauldrons at once.

Link leaned over and sniffed some of the aroma, and instantly his eyes lit up, "Dragon Heart Potion! This is being brewed for me, right? Dragon blood and fire dragon heart aren't cheap, you're really generous!"

After speaking, Link directly took the cauldron over and continued the brewing process.

Dragon Heart Potion is a kind of advanced potion that can comprehensively enhance the drinker's physical condition and slightly extend lifespan. Not only are the materials expensive, the brewing is also extremely complex.

Fortunately, Snape had already completed the vast majority of the process. Link only needed to work for a short while to finish the potion.

He filled three potion bottles with the liquid from the cauldron, then drank one while it was still warm.

Feeling his body gradually strengthened by the potion's effects, Link shivered comfortably.

And up to this moment, Snape had still maintained silence. He didn't even lift his head.

But with the help of the Super Sensory Charm, Link still sensed Snape's body relaxing a bit.

This was a sign that his mood had improved.

Link immediately leaned in again, nudged at the remaining cauldron with his head, and said, "Professor Snape, then this other cauldron, what kind of potion is it?"

Hearing this, Snape finally lifted his head and looked at Link, saying, "Wolfsbane Potion! As long as a werewolf drinks it within the week before the full moon, they can keep their sanity after transforming, and won't randomly attack others."

"This kind of potion was only recently developed by a French potioneer and is extremely difficult to make. In all of Europe, including myself, only three people can brew it!"

Saying this, Snape paused, and the corner of his mouth drew a faint, malicious curve as he continued, "Do you know who this is prepared for?"
