11 'Severus Snape'

"Hey, guys look like our Gryffindor house have 40 more points added. Has anyone heard who gained those points to the house? We should at least congratulate them after all 40 points are a large sum to even overall points." Said Percy with a sincere smile on his face.

"Huh? Then you should thank Edward and Hermione. Edward got 30 points, while hermione got 10 points in transfiguration class, for their excellent performance from Professor McGonagall. She was even smiled so brightly and....."

As Ron described, all the house members thanked both Edward and hermione for their contribution to the house.

Later they straight out went for their dorm, like yesterday Edward first instructed the trio with some ideas on how to create a formation, patterns, and release of magic. Later he also practiced with the spells, he selected.

After doing his practice, he again started concentrating on formations for a new spell that he wanted to create.

The next day, early in the morning after they did their routine exercises. Edward simply sat on the couch and took out his wand before saying,

"Invenireo"

After saying that spell, he found out that from all the products that he induced his magical energy in different classes. The only magical energy that responded to him is from the last class and that too is fluctuating weekly.

After that, hermione again took the lead for them. After reaching the professor McGonagall's class, Edward checked the needle that he stuck on the bench.

The needle is there, but the magical energy he induces is completely dissipated to its surroundings.

Seeing this, he got a little bit of headache at first. But suddenly, he was overjoyed by something he remembered.

From his grandfather collection, he has seen a charm that let anything to stick permanently to another thing indefinitely. Unless there is an external force that will forcefully separate them.

Later, in all classes, Edward found the same problem.

Coming to the house, the first thing Edward did was checking that permanent sticking charm.

"Iaciebato"

A charm that can stick anything permanently with all other things indefinitely.

A week has already gone by since they came to Hogwarts.

"Hahaha! Today I will take the lead. All you have to do is follow me from now on." Edward said that much enthusiasm. He finally got the chance to get back his pride.

He has been researching his new spell for the past week. It took three days for him to learn permanent sticking charm, after learning that charm, he simply used that to stick magical energy permanently to the objects he placed in all classes.

"D-did you complete that charm for real? You have only been researching for one week right?"

Asked harry with surprised and doubted voice.

Hermione and Ron also looked at him curiously, but they didn't doubt him that much. Because they knew, that he created a medium grade spell in two months and the spell he is researching right now will fall under the categories of one of the lowest grade possible spells. One week is reasonable if it considered according to Edwards standards.

"I have finally completed that dumb spell!! I thought it will only take me 2 or 3 days at most. But the magic energy I have placed on objects started dissipating by the morning. So, I have to learn another charm, permanent sticking charm, it wasted three days worth of time. Now, if I were to use the spell that I created, the magical energy that I placed in the objects will respond to me. So, that I can find my route to classes, even if were to close my eyes."

Saying that he indicated to the three of them to follow him.

"Invenireo"

Hearing that spell, all three of them surprised and at the same time followed Edward.

"This Charm will only work on yourself, it can't be used on others. If you want to use it, you will have to use your magical energy on objects that you have placed on the location you want to go to. Let me say, it's like you are finding yourself. It will only respond to your type of magical energy. Enough of that, I think today's classes include defense against dark arts and potions right? Let us go, I have even placed some objects with my induced magical energy near those classes."

The trio nodded their heads and simply followed Edward without any inconvenience.

The first class is still professor McGonagall's, where they practiced with transfiguration magic. The next class is the potions class.

At the start-of-term banquet, Harry had gotten the idea that Professor Snape disliked him. By the end of the first Potions lesson, he knew he'd been wrong. Snape didn't dislike Harry -- he hated him.

Potions lessons took place down in one of the dungeons. It was colder here than up in the main castle and would have been quite creepy enough without the pickled animals floating in glass jars all around the walls.

Snape, like Flitwick, started the class by taking the roll call, and like Flitwick, he paused at Harry's name.

"Ah, Yes," he said softly, "Harry Potter. Our new -- celebrity. "

Draco Malfoy and his friends Crabbe and Goyle sniggered behind their hands. Snape finished calling the names and looked up at the class. His eyes were black like Hagrid's, but they had none of Hagrid's warmth. They were cold and empty and made you think of dark tunnels.

"You are here to learn the subtle science and exact art of potion-making," he began. He spoke in barely more than a whisper, but they caught every word -- like Professor McGonagall, Snape had the gift of keeping a class silent without effort. "As there is little foolish wand-waving here, many of you will hardly believe this is magic. I don't expect you will understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with its shimmering fumes, the delicate power of liquids that creep through human veins, bewitching the mind, ensnaring the senses. . . I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even stopper death -- if you aren't as big a bunch of dunderheads as I usually have to teach. "

Hearing this, Edward raised his eyebrows and looked at Snape with a weird glint in his eyes.

"If this dumb fellow can develop such potions, then what about alchemy masters, grandmasters, emperors and so on can do? Why did this fellow turn out to be good in the future."

Edward started contemplating the plot of harry potter, where snape helped harry, even though he hated Harry and his father.

More silence followed this little speech. Harry and Ron exchanged looks with raised eyebrows. Hermione Granger was on the edge of her seat and looked desperate to start proving that she wasn't a dunderhead.

"Potter!" said Snape suddenly. "What would I get if I added the powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?"

Powdered root of what to an infusion of what? Harry glanced at Ron, who looked as stumped as he was; Hermione's hand had shot into the air.

"I don't know, sir," said Harry.

Snape's lips curled into a sneer.

"Tut, tut -- fame isn't everything."

He ignored Hermione's hand.

"Let's try again. Potter, where would you look if I told you to find me a bezoar?"

Hermione stretched her hand as high into the air as it would go without her leaving her seat, but Harry didn't have the faintest idea what a bezoar was. He tried not to look at Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle, who were shaking with laughter.

Looking at Hermione's cute actions, Edward couldn't help but find it's a feast for his eyes.

I don't know," said Harry quietly. "I think Hermione does, though, why don't you try her?"

A few people laughed; Harry caught Seamus's eye, and Seamus winked. Snape, however, was not pleased.

"Sit down," he snapped at Hermione. "For your information, Potter, asphodel, and wormwood make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of Living Death. A bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a goat and it will save you from most poisons. As for monkshood and wolfsbane, they are the same plant, which also goes by the name of aconite. Well? Why aren't you all copying that down?"

Looking at hermione and harry getting scolded without doing anything, Edward is a little angry about this injustice.

"Professor Snape, looks like you are picking on harry, isn't it? How can a person like you can become a professor, who doesn't even have equality nature towards their nature? Is the ministry of magic biased towards you because you are powerful? If you have any hatred towards harry, potter, you can take it on him after you resign from your position. I think as you are in an honorable teaching field, you will need to maintain equality towards all of this, you know that right?"

Edward simply vented all pent up feelings about snape that he had accumulated in his previous life in a single breath. Even after knowing snape is a good person in the final, Edward couldn't take Snape's behavior and always marked snape as a neutral character, neither good nor bad.

"Mr. Edward, I think you don't need to teach me what to do! Even though kimsely have a lot of power, don't think I will fear them as all others without any fault on my side."

Snape said the words loudly, but anyone who heard those words knew that professor snape voice contains a bit of uneasy.

"I didn't say anything about including about my family on this professor snape. All we are going to do is consult professor Dumbledore and we will tell him that you are picking on Harry Potter. That is simpler than involving my family professor snape."

Hearing this, snape turned livid with fury and it of fright. Not even a single person beside snape understood Edward's meaning of complaining to Dumbledore.

But he understood the blatant threat from Edward. Complaining Dumbledore about is not the problem here, but who is it is more important. If it is any other student that did it, Dumbledore will just warn snape, but if it was done by Edward, Dumbledore will take it to the ministry of magic.

If the Ministry of magic heard, that this complaint came from kimsely, they will definitely take it seriously and then this matter will not end with a simple warning. But, something that will make snape suffers for entire life.

"Humph!! Mr. Potter, you should learn before coming classes from tomorrow onwards, for today, I won't cut any points from Gryffindors. But, I will definitely do so tomorrow."

Hearing this entire class was surprised and Malfoy's face turned livid from the anger, that he couldn't be any help to snape side.

Edward also understood, this is professor snape indication, that he isn't going to pick on harry.

Like this, harry was relieved from Snape's targeting. From that day onwards, the trio and Edward completed their next week without any problems.

On the 15th day night in Gryffindors boys dorm,

Edward was seen sitting on his bed doing meditation or breathing techniques. It was already close to midnight, but Edward sensed a breakthrough is going to happen in his core and started practicing without knowing the time.

By the time he opened his eyes, it's already 1 am in the next day. But there is no fatigue in Edwards's face, but the blatant joy was written on his face.

"Finally, I am now a level 2 indigo cored magician. I thought it will take one month to reach, but it looks like my speed of breathing technique is increased. Hahaha (laughed weakly, to ensure to not get cussed by others in the dorm), I can finally learn Accio and Depulso."

After fantasizing about those thoughts, where he is using Accio and Depulso on others and items. Edward slept with a happy smile on his face.
