Breaking with Harry
Lester seemed thoughtful; he had a feeling that the inferior Potions in Knockturn Alley were somehow connected to the prisoners of Azkaban.
"I even allowed Scarface to use the Water of Life to research Potions, so the substandard potions in Knockturn Alley couldn't have been made by them."
Just kidding. Although Scarface's potion-making skills are sometimes outrageous, Lester believes it's all due to the materials. If he doesn't cut corners, Scarface can definitely concoct normal Potions.
After thinking for a while, Lester began to focus all his attention on his task.
During Transfiguration class, Lester suddenly finds himself captivated by yet another first-year Slytherin wizard.
Unfortunately, he had no idea who this person was.
His gaze swept across the lounge, and many first-year wizards subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to meet Lester's eyes.
Only the arrogant Malfoy, barely suppressing his fear, glared at Lester with his little head tilted back, looking utterly resentful and defiant.
The lounge was crowded, with many older students, so Lester couldn't make a move directly.
Suddenly, Lester saw a large yellow dog in Pansy's arms next to Malfoy.
"Jiedi, go and straighten that dog's ears!"
Jiedi was taken aback by what Lester said, somewhat confused about what he meant.
"At sixty, one should be able to hear and understand everything! You idiot, how did you learn to Lunyu?"
Jiedi suddenly realized what was going on and, without hesitation, strode up to Pansy and Malfoy.
He grabbed the big yellow dog from Pansy's arms and started slapping it across the face.
Malfoy initially wanted to stand up and berate Jiedi, but after seeing his outrageous actions and the big yellow dog's screams, Malfoy hesitated.
"Jiedi, what do you want to do!"
Malfoy glared at Jiedi, demanding an explanation from him.
Jiedi grabbed the big yellow dog by the scruff of its neck with one hand and slapped it repeatedly across the face with the other, saying in a deep voice, "My older brother doesn't like it and wants to teach it a lesson."
Malfoy: "???"
[Ding! You have gained Malfoy's Fear Points +6]
[Ding! Pansy's Fear Points +3]
Hogwarts has a long lunch break, and the course schedule isn't too full.
There is usually one class in the morning and one class in the afternoon.
After finishing their Transfiguration class in the morning, Lester and the others rested in the lounge for a while before heading to the dining hall.
As soon as Lester arrived at the Slytherin table, he noticed that quite a few people were watching him.
Obviously, word had spread that he could turn a match into a needle in his very first lesson.
As soon as Lester and his three companions arrived, two obsequious Slytherin students immediately pulled out chairs for them.
"Brother Lai, please have a seat!"
Curiosity and opportunism are human nature everywhere, especially in Slytherin, a house primarily driven by self-interest.
Lester and the others sat down without any hesitation and started eating the food in front of them.
Previously, Lester's eating habits would have been ridiculed by other Slytherin, who thought he lacked noble manners. But now, no one dares to laugh at Lester.
In order to please Lester, the three of Jiedi even abandoned their own manners and began to imitate Lester's behavior.
Nonsense, his older brother drinks and eats meat in big bowls, it's so enjoyable.
As a result, his henchmen pretended to act all high and mighty. Whether they did it intentionally or not, weren't they just trying to make their boss look bad?
So, the three of Jiedi, being quite rational, immediately started to imitate Lester's behavior.
They even specifically learned how to use chopsticks.
This is Slytherin, a place where the strong are respected.
After eating and drinking his fill, Lester patted his full belly and slowly stood up.
As he walked out, he happened to see the first-year students of Gryffindor.
Harry and Ron Weasley, the two best buddies, remained inseparable as always.
Lester didn't greet Harry as he passed by them.
Because he saw Harry and Ron Weasley's rejection and alienation towards him.
Jiedi took it upon himself to slap Ron Weasley. Ron Weasley, being the kind of person who would exaggerate and badmouth him to Harry, might even think that Harry had instructed Jiedi to do it.
Not only that, Ron Weasley started making sarcastic remarks about Lester and the others as soon as class began.
Lester was magnanimous enough to ignore him, but Jiedi was going through a rebellious phase, so it was normal for him to slap Ron Weasley after being ridiculed.
Unfortunately, Harry didn't understand any of this. All he knew was that he had been sorted into Slytherin House and that his best friend Ron Weasley had been beaten up by his henchmen.
So Harry began to see himself as the enemy.
In response, Lester stated that he would absolutely not indulge Harry Potter's bad habits.
If it were anyone else, they might have gone over to explain, out of respect for Harry Potter's status the Chosen One. But who is Lester?
The leader of Azkaban, the headmaster of the Azkaban Magic Academy, why should he explain things to a little brat?
If Harry is willing to become his friend, Lester will definitely not be stingy with his friends, and Lester will also lend a helping hand if Harry is in danger.
But if Harry remains obstinate and simply believes that he is Harry's enemy...
Well, sorry, Lester doesn't like to fawn over those who don't reciprocate.
This time, out of consideration for their previous friendship, Jiedi slapped Ron Weasley, and Lester let it go.
If Ron Weasley dares to make sarcastic remarks or cause trouble for him again, then sorry, Lester will do more than just have Jiedi take action.
Even if Hermione just glanced at him, he felt like throwing her book away.
Since Ron Weasley was provoking him, Lester wouldn't hold back anymore.
