Malfoy's seating arrangement was just a minor incident during Potions.

Once Malfoy was seated, Professor Snape continued the lesson.

In his first Potions, Professor Snape didn't, like in Muggle schools, give these clueless young wizards a lecture on important points first.

Instead, after briefly explaining the simple process of making a medicine to treat boils, the students were put in pairs to work together.

Malfoy and Hermione became a teammate as he had hoped.

Born into a prestigious family, Malfoy received an excellent education from a young age.

Hermione is a top student, but her practical skills are definitely lacking. This is where Malfoy's chance to shine comes in.

Even the stern Professor Snape would drag his long black cloak up to Malfoy and Hermione and quietly praise them.

As for the incident in the Potions that Neville experienced in the original story, it did not happen here.

Because Neville's current partner is the meticulous Lavender, with Lavender's help, Neville managed to complete the simple preparation of the Boil Potion.

Even though it was Lester's first time working with Potions, he completed the creation perfectly while operating the potion alone.

Thanks to the explanations of laboratory operating procedures from his previous life, Lester successfully connected Potions with chemistry.

In his previous life, he may have only known theory, but with rich theoretical experience, putting it into practice will undoubtedly be much easier.

Furthermore, the reason why the boil potion was chosen as the potion for the young wizard's first lesson was naturally because it was incredibly simple, so Lester made it successfully without any problems.

Snape paced back and forth behind Lester, his expression somewhat stiff.

He wanted to find out what was wrong with Lester, but Lester's performance was unexpectedly perfect.

"Not bad," Snape coldly praised, then turned and left, putting pressure on Gryffindor.

Many of the young Gryffindor wizards shuddered instinctively when they saw Snape approaching.

Harry and Ron Weasley kept their heads down, not daring to meet Professor Snape's gaze.

But Snape had no intention of letting them off the hook. He seized upon one of Ron Weasley's mistakes and Snape said...

"Weasley family kid, you really should learn from your older brothers. I find it hard to believe you all come from the same family."

Ron Weasley was furious.

I was ignored by others from a young age because of my mediocrity.

Bill Weasley and Charlie Weasley were both captains of the Gryffindor Quidditch Team in school. They were not only highly skilled in Quidditch, but also had excellent academic performance.

Percy Weasley, though not particularly popular in Gryffindor, still had a group of good students around him and could be considered a prominent figure in Gryffindor.

As for the twins, George Weasley and Fred Weasley, although they were always scolded by the teacher for being naughty, they were indeed very talented.

Despite their poor academic performance, their outstanding ability to cause trouble made them influential figures in the lower grades of Gryffindor.

His older brothers were all prominent figures at Hogwarts, and were admired by other students.

However, he was treated as Harry Potter's underling. When people mentioned Ron Weasley, their first reaction wasn't how outstanding he was, but rather that he was Harry's lackey.

Ron Weasley gritted his teeth in anger, and with a jerk of the tweezers, the purple cabbage on them fell into the crucible.

In an instant, Snape's expression changed, and he reached for his wand.

Bang!

With a deafening roar, a massive column of liquid erupted from the crucible, shooting straight up to the classroom ceiling.

The splashing medicine rapidly sprayed towards the students around the classroom.

Some students who were unlucky enough to be sitting behind Harry and Ron Weasley were immediately sprayed in the face.

With a bloodcurdling scream, the two young wizards behind him immediately broke out in a bunch of boils on their faces.

These young wizards had never seen anything like it before, and they immediately burst into tears.

Even Professor Snape was not spared; due to being so close, disgusting boils appeared on Snape face.

As for Harry and Ron Weasley in the middle, they were splashed with the potion that caused the riot.

The young Slytherin wizard instinctively wanted to get away from the source of the outburst.

But the classroom is only so big, where could they possibly hide?

Just as the terrible potion was about to splash onto the Slytherin snakes, Lester intervened.

His magical power erupted instantly, empowered by the Dark Lord's Wand and the Doran's Ring.

An invisible magical hand smoothly caught all the Boil Potion that splashed toward the Slytherin seat.

Merlin!

Many of the Slytherin boys who had already closed their eyes and were waiting to be splashed all looked at Lester.

Lester remained calm and collected, wand in hand, invisible magic surging from its tip, easily controlling all the splashing Boil Potion.

Then they saw Lester give a sinister smile and wave his wand.

The Boil Potion, which had been held in mid-air, immediately changed direction and shot towards Gryffindor on the right.

"Sorry, I ran out of magic, so my hand slipped."

Lester looked annoyed, as if it were all his fault.

If many Slytherin students hadn't seen Lester's sinister smile just now, they would have truly believed it.

Immediately, many first-year Gryffindor wizards suffered a second blow.

Another round of howling and wailing erupted as many young wizards scurried away, dodging the Boil Potion Lester shot at them.

Many Slytherin glanced at Lester's 'frustrated' face, then at the wailing Gryffindor wizards, and their fear of Lester deepened.

[bite!...]

[Ding! The first-year Slytherin wizard has been won over (12/20)]

While all the Gryffindor students were avoiding the Boil Potion, Malfoy, that cunning fellow, was...

Holding the defensive items his father had given him, he immediately erected a white protective shield resembling Protego around himself.

Meanwhile, in order to impress the girl, this guy deliberately increased the protective area of Protego, wrapping the panicked Hermione inside.

Lester believed that as long as Malfoy didn't make the fatal mistake of saying the wrong thing like Snape did, he might actually be able to poach the three boys from the group.
