Rubik’s Cube of Heavens

 Chapter 45 - Chase Off

Coven first picked up a stalk of herbs and placed it in his palm to sense it. He felt that this stalk of herbs was more effective than the one Professor Snape had used before, so he used a small knife to cut off a portion of herbs.

After grinding herbs, Coven continued with this step. He sensed all of the herbs and then continued to grind.

Coven actually couldn’t sense much of the medicinal effect, but he could sense the magic elements. Since the first time Coven touched the wand and successfully released magic, Coven could sense the magic elements between heaven and earth from then on.

It was a type of energy.

Although Coven could not absorb the abundant energy in the world into his body like in novels, he could clearly sense them through his wand and slightly influence them.

This was also the reason why Coven was so talented when it came to using magic spells.

This was because Coven could slightly affect the ‘Magic Element’, and in turn, affect the magic spells he cast himself.

From this point on, the effect of Coven releasing the curse seemed to be somewhat according to his wishes. In other people’s eyes, he was a genius.

Coven had discovered this before school started. He believed that this should be because he had just reached the age of 18 and was in the moment of life and death crisis. He had successfully awakened the ‘ability’.

In the world he had been in before he transmigrated, because of the recovery of the weather and vitality, many ability users had awakened. Even if the awakening was not successful, he could still rely on the ‘ability awakening medicine’ to once again develop his potential and awaken his ability.

Coven believed that the ‘ability’ he had awakened should be ‘magic affinity’.

Just like the other ‘Elemental Affinities’ such as ‘Flame affinity’, the effect of his ability allowed him to sense and affect the magic elements easily.

The professors were not wrong about his evaluation. Coven, who had this kind of ‘supernatural talent’, was indeed a magic genius.

And now, Coven used this talent on sensing herbs.

Under the state of concentration, Coven could slightly sense the amount of ‘the magic element content’ in herbs. Therefore, he chose to copy the exact amount that Professor Snape had used. He copied the content of the ‘Magic Element’ that Professor Snape had used earlier.

Next, Coven chose to copy all of the herbs used, the heat of the crucible, the stirring of the medicine, and Coven even copied the potion that Professor Snape had brewed before.

The weight of herbs was different, the size of the fire was different, and the order of the mix was also different… However, during the process of making the potion, the performance rhythm of all the ‘magic elements’ was controlled by Coven to the point of almost the same.

After a while, the potion was finished…

Coven poured the potion into a glass test tube from the crucible. He stood up and looked at Professor Snape with the test tube.

Snape looked at Coven inexplicably, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the test tube from Coven’s hand. He put the test tube under his nose and sniffed it. Snape squinted and took a sip. He stirred the potion in his mouth with his tongue and finally swallowed it.

Then, Professor Snape turned around and stuffed the test tube into his mouth with a wooden plug. He commented calmly, “Not bad.”

Coven looked at Professor Snape, who had his back to him, and grinned. He knew that if he could get this evaluation from the perfectionist Professor Snape, it meant that the potion he made was perfect.

Otherwise, if there were even the slightest flaw in this medicine, he would probably continue to suffer the other party’s poisonous tongue attack.

“What are you still standing here for? Get out.”

After putting the medicine away, Professor Snape turned around and drove Coven away calmly.

“There is still one more important question.” Coven did not mind and continued to ask for advice, “This time, it was because a professor made the standard for me.

“I was able to concoct this potion successfully. But I’m afraid that this realization will gradually disappear, so what will happen in the future? I mean, I can’t always ask you to give a demonstration in advance every time I make a potion in the future.”

“So, did you forget what I said just now?” Professor Snape frowned again and said with dissatisfaction, “It is impossible for you to make potions like this one from now on.”

“In the future potion making, you first need to work hard to improve your operating level, and then find your own ‘intuition’.”

“In the future, you have to rely on your own intuition to deal with every step of potion-making,” Snape said, and his tone was calm and sarcastic again. “The current you is just like you still have no way to deal with a goblin, but you are thinking of challenging an adult dragon.”

Coven could not say anything else when he heard this. He could only reveal an awkward and polite smile.

“Go out and think about your dream of defeating the dragon.” Professor Snape asked him to leave for the third time.

“Then I’ll go back, Professor.” Coven bowed politely and turned to leave.

However, when he reached the door, Coven stopped again and turned to ask Professor Snape, who was cleaning up the table, “Professor, can I come to you again if I have any questions I don’t understand?”

Professor Snape acted as if he did not hear anything and did not respond at all.

Coven smiled at this. He knew that as long as Professor Snape did not explicitly express his refusal, it meant that the other party had already agreed.

“Goodbye, Professor.” Coven politely said goodbye again and then left the office with light and quick steps.

……

Only when the footsteps gradually disappeared did Professor Snape, who was in the office, slow down his movements.

Slowly turning around, Professor Snape stared at the door of the office. His eyes revealed a thoughtful expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a while, Professor Snape raised his hand and slapped the door. The next moment, the open door suddenly closed with a bang…

……

On the other side, Coven walked briskly towards the auditorium. He had originally thought that he would be targeted by Professor Snape in the office today, but the result was the opposite. Not only did he receive precious guidance from Professor Snape, but it also completely eliminated a hidden danger in Coven’s heart.

After all, he did not want to offend a professor at the level of a dean just because he had offended Slytherin.

Now it seemed that Professor Snape still had the morals of a teacher.

Although his behavior seemed to be biased towards his own House, at least Coven was sure that if he taught Slytherin’s students a lesson in the future, then Professor Snape would at most look for trouble and deduct points, and would not personally come down.

As long as the professor did not come down, then Coven would have nothing to fear…
