Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 462 Slug Club
Harry felt a little embarrassed by Slughorn's burning gaze. Until this moment he didn't realize what was happening and could only keep smiling foolishly at Slughorn.

Slughorn's long stay here also attracted the attention of other people present, including Emma, ​​who had met Mike once on the Hogwarts Express.

She twisted her waist and came to the group of people, and naturally took Mike's arm.

"Mike, what are you guys talking about?"

I have to say Emma is well developed. Even through the uniform robe, Mike can still feel the two surprisingly soft lumps on his arms.

He looked down instinctively and saw Emma staring at him with her watery eyes.

Emma today is completely different from when she was on the train. She is wearing a pure black deep V short-sleeved dress, and her slightly childish face is heavily made up. Logically speaking, Emma's innocent and childish temperament is more suitable for a more elegant makeup, and too much gaudy heavy makeup would appear a bit abrupt. But when these two styles are combined together, a different kind of beauty is created, which makes Emma's appearance, which originally scored only about 80 points, rise directly to 90 points, especially her two red lips, whose bright color looks like a red apple, making people want to take a bite.

It can be seen that Emma must have spent a lot of time studying how to dress herself up to achieve such an effect. In comparison, Hermione is far behind in this regard.

All this made Mike lose consciousness for a moment when he saw Emma, ​​not to mention Harry on the other side. His eyes were fixed on Emma as soon as she appeared, and he didn't even notice that Slughorn was talking to him.

Emma saw the reactions of both men. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and the two hands that were holding Mike's arms tightened a little.

This made the deformation of her chest more obvious.

Mike looked at Emma with a smile, and had no intention of breaking free from her embrace.

If Penelope was present, he might still do the same, but now that Penelope is not there, what reason does he have to refuse a beauty who takes the initiative to throw herself into his arms?

You know, he is not a saint!
He even secretly stretched out his protected arm to allow for greater physical contact with the other party.

But just as he was about to take the next step, a fierce murderous intent suddenly came from not far away.

Mike instinctively turned his head and saw Hermione looking at him with squinted eyes and gritted teeth. The silver fork in her hand was almost deformed by her.

Mike's heart was filled with alarm. He looked at Harry who looked like a fangirl in front of him, and suddenly said to Emma in his arms:

"Oh, it's Emma. We are talking about Harry's godfather. He is the only remaining heir of the Black family. If nothing unexpected happens, Black will be called Potter in the future."

Mike's words were very blunt, so blunt that they might make Harry uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Harry had not yet recovered from his infatuated state and did not hear what Mike said at all.

But Emma in Mike's arms was different. Like Slughorn, she realized the hidden meaning in Mike's words.

Emma opened her red lips slightly and looked very shocked, but her eyes kept switching between Mike and Harry.

She was considering the pros and cons. Mike was indeed one of the most talented young men in the wizarding world today. Not only did he control a giant consortium like the Los Santos Group, but he was also incredibly powerful.

But Harry is not bad either. Although his strength is not as good as Mike's, if he can really inherit the legacy of the Potter family and the Black family, then in terms of wealth, the two of them should be on the same level.

The most important thing is that Mike is so smart!

After the brief encounter on the Hogwarts Express, Emma already knew that if she really tried to seduce Mike, she might not only not gain anything, but also be taken advantage of for no reason.

On the contrary, Harry is different. Just look at his infatuated look and you can tell that he is a fool.

In just a few seconds, Emma made a quick decision. She quickly let go of Mike's arm and said in surprise, covering her mouth:
"Merlin! Harry! You never told me this!"

"Um, is it...is it?"

Harry still looked dumbfounded.

Mike breathed a sigh of relief. The moment Emma let go of his arm, he clearly felt that the murderous gaze behind him disappeared.

He raised his hand reluctantly and smelled it. Just now when Emma let go of his hand, he did some small movements.

Mm, it feels good and smells good.

His actions were all seen by Slughorn who was standing by, and the latter looked at Mike with a smirk on his face. Mike did not feel shy at all, but instead raised his eyebrows at the other party with a smirk.

After confirming through eye contact, we both found out that they are all perverts.

Next, Emma launched a fierce attack on Harry. It can be seen that Emma's emotional intelligence is much higher than Harry's, and Harry was completely fooled by her.

But when facing Harry, Emma seemed to change her strategy of selling flesh and was very restrained in physical contact, which made Mike look at her with even higher regard.

Since the conversation between Harry and Emma had become so intense that Mike and Slughorn could hardly get a word in, Mike and Slughorn naturally gave up their space to the two of them and left together.

Mike and Slughorn walked towards the dining table and champagne tower in the middle of the classroom. As they walked, Mike said:
"Professor, I don't seem to see Professor Snape. Didn't you invite him?"

"No! Of course I invited him!" Slughorn reacted a little fiercely, "It's just that Severus has too much work. You know, he has too many students this year, so... you know, right?"

Looking at Slughorn who was eager to explain, Mike wanted to laugh, but he pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

"Of course, of course! Professor Snape has indeed had too much work this school year. To be honest, I even think that Professor Snape should quit his job as a professor at Hogwarts and concentrate on potion research. His talent in this area is truly amazing!"

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Slughorn's face suddenly became a little regretful.

He was Snape's Potions professor, so he knew Snape's talent in potions very well.

In fact, the entire potion industry and even the vast majority of knowledgeable wizards firmly believed that Snape was a rare genius in the potion world in thousands of years. If he had concentrated on studying potions instead of getting involved in power struggles, the level of potions in the entire wizarding world might have been taken to a higher level because of him.

Perhaps only the little kids and some simple-minded idiots in Hogwarts would think that Snape is just an ordinary Potions professor.

"In fact, I used to have a lot of dissatisfaction with Professor Snape. After all, he is so sarcastic." Mike continued, "But last year I picked up Professor Snape's textbook when he was a student. The notes on it completely changed my opinion of him. Those wonderful ideas are simply miracles!" "Oh! Really? I guess the name of the textbook must be "Advanced Potion Making"."

Slughorn said with a smirk on his face.

The corners of Mike's mouth also rose slightly. The old fox Slughorn had already guessed that they stole other people's experience, which was the reason why they could repeatedly achieve good results in Potions class.

Otherwise, the person who came here with McHarry today should be Ron. You know, in terms of classroom performance alone, Ron, with the help of the 'Half-Blood Prince', is much better than Hermione.

The two smiled at each other and neither continued on this topic.

"Mike, try this, Freljord sparkling wine. I dare say this must be the best sparkling wine in the world. If it weren't for the rules set by those French guys, this would definitely be the best champagne in the world!"

As Slughorn spoke, he took a full goblet from the champagne tower and handed it to Mike.

Mike wasn't very interested in alcohol, so he agreed with the other party and was about to drink it all in one gulp. At this moment, Hermione's slightly sinister voice came from the side.

"Professor, I have to remind you that it is against school rules to allow underage wizards to drink."

Max Laghorn was stunned when he heard this, and then turned his gaze to Hermione beside him.

Hermione looked a little embarrassed as she was being stared at by the two men. The blush on her face even began to spread to her neck, but she still stubbornly held her neck stiff.

Seeing this, Mike didn't hesitate at all and put the glass in his hand back on the champagne tower.

He knew very well that Hermione could not stand the slightest provocation nowadays, but this would make Slughorn embarrassed. Fortunately, he was thick-skinned enough and he just laughed twice and brushed the matter off.

Next, Mike and Slughorn naturally turned the topic to the delicious food on the side. Slughorn introduced the delicious food on the long table to Mike and Hermione one dish after another, and Mike kept agreeing.

Of course, both of them were people with very high emotional intelligence, and they did not forget to accommodate Hermione during the conversation so that she would not feel excluded.

This made Hermione breathe a sigh of relief.

She had very few friends in Hogwarts, and at this party there were only Mike and Harry. Most importantly, Hermione felt that everyone else at the party was intentionally or unintentionally excluding her, as if she were a clown. No matter where she went, people around her would automatically keep a distance from her and cast sarcastic glances at her.

This made her very uncomfortable. She believed that if Mike had not taken the initiative to accept her, she might have run away long ago.

In fact, Hermione probably guessed that she was treated like this probably because of the dress she was wearing. Compared with the girl named Emma, ​​her outfit made her look like an ugly duckling!

At this moment, she regretted very much not listening to Mike. She believed that if she had gone to the date in normal attire, there wouldn't have been so many troubles!
Thinking of this, Hermione couldn't help but move closer to Mike, and their bodies were almost touching.

The corners of Slughorn's mouth curled up even more, he saw all of this.

Mike was secretly relieved, things went much better than he expected. Although Hermione's dress made her unpopular in this "upscale" banquet, it did not cause her to suffer too much ill will.

It seems that Slughorn is quite good at selecting club members. At least the quality of the guests at this banquet is quite good.

However, just as Mike was feeling thankful for being able to survive the banquet safely, a loud noise was heard from a little further away!
Everyone turned their heads and saw that the champagne tower that was standing tall in the distance had collapsed, and Emma, ​​who was right under the champagne tower, had her head and face covered in wine.

Emma opened her mouth in disbelief, and Harry on the side was also panicked. He raised his wand and quickly used the 'Quick Dry' and 'Restore' effects on Emma.

But this was obviously a wrong choice, because although the former quickly dried the wine on Emma's body, it also ruined the expensive dress and Emma's carefully prepared hairstyle.

The latter's restoration was even more excessive. Harry obviously used all his strength when using it, which resulted in the heavy makeup on Emma's face being completely washed away, restoring her to her natural look.

The combination of these two instantly turned Emma from a beautiful and charming black swan into an ugly duck.

Emma's eyes widened even wider, and she fumbled around on herself in disbelief. After discovering that her hairstyle and makeup were completely ruined, she finally broke down!

"Merlin! Ahhh!"

Everyone in the classroom looked at Emma in confusion as she screamed and ran away from the party, while Mike and Hermione looked towards a corner of the classroom at the same time.

There, Ginny, wearing an exaggerated French evening gown, was laughing with her hands covering her mouth.

Half of her wand was revealed from her wide sleeves.

Now the culprit was found, but Mike and Hermione, as Ginny's good friends, did not react at all. They turned their heads decisively and pretended that they saw nothing.

On the other side, Harry stood there at a loss. He seemed not to realize how excessive what he had just done to a lady was. He just stared blankly in the direction where Emma left.

"I'm sorry, Mike, and Hermione, I have to go check on the kid."

Slughorn apologized to Mike and Hermione, then ran out quickly with his huge belly bulging.

Mike and Hermione quietly came to Ginny's side.

"You've gone too far!"

Hermione whispered through gritted teeth.

Hearing this, the smug look on Ginny's face immediately turned into a look of gnashing teeth. She stared at the direction where Emma left and said in a rough voice:

"That bitch deserves what she deserves! Who told her to seduce Harry?"

Looking at the vicious look on Ginny's face, Mike's three views couldn't help but tremble. The Ginny in front of him was completely different from the Ginny he knew!
