The best-case scenario would be getting caught by Filch. The worst-case scenario? They might end up as food for Fluffy, the three-headed dog. Just enough for each head to have its share without needing to fight over it.
"Coward." Seeing that Harry wasn't biting, Malfoy sneered and turned back to his food, ignoring him.
Harry wanted to mock him further when the all-too-familiar annoying voice came from behind.
"Potter, isn't there a place for Gryffindors to eat?"
"No, Professor," Harry replied with forced calmness as he turned around, "I was just greeting a fellow student."
As Snape noticed Harry's injuries, his gaze sharpened. After a moment of silence, he stated, "Deceiving a professor, five points from Ravenclaw."
"Potter, you'd better pray that I don't catch you next time you're in a fight; otherwise, you might as well roll back to the end of the line."
With that, Snape swept away, moving like a bat in broad daylight.
Harry watched his retreating figure with a look of disdain. "Sometimes I really wonder if I've somehow stolen his girlfriend, which is why he hates me so much."
"You two are twenty years apart," Ron pointed out mercilessly. "Your dad stole his girlfriend, and that's close enough."
"Alright, let's go eat," Harry nodded, preparing to head back to the Gryffindor table with Ron. Just then, he noticed Wayne had approached the head table and was speaking to Snape, who had just taken his seat.
"Professor, here's the material you requested," Wayne handed over a paper bag, his face contorted with pain as he did so. The tears he had collected took a lot of effort; he had almost been sick from flattering the phoenix king to gather enough.
If Snape even thought about holding anything back, Wayne promised himself he would ensure that Snape would drink a potion laced with Umbridge's hair in the future!
Whoosh!
The motion was almost too fast to see, and before Wayne had fully grasped the situation, Snape had already taken the bag and even showed a rare smile.
He had already used the materials Wayne provided over the weekend, and the effects had been unexpectedly good. Especially with the resurrection potion he created, the addition of phoenix tears had led to some changes that even he couldn't comprehend.
After an entire weekend of research, Snape finally determined that Wayne's phoenix was indeed unique. Unlike Fawkes, whose tears only had strong healing properties, Wayne's phoenix…
Snape wasn't sure yet, as time was too short to make a conclusion.
Based on the current intelligence and inferences, the tears of the Phoenix contain an immense vitality. Even those who are not injured can gain an extension of life and even return to their youth after using it. What does this mean? It's like a premium version of the Philosopher's Stone! Wait, the Philosopher's Stone is just junk, right? It can only grant immortality but cannot prevent aging. Look at Nick, he probably feels like he might fracture his chest just from sneezing.
