    I'm sorry, but your input is empty. Could you please provide the text you want me to translate into English?

    "If that's the case, there would be no problem."

    Upon hearing Snape's response, George nodded without hesitation.

    He had gone around in circles all this time, precisely for this purpose.

    He has only learned the Forgetting Charm from Lupin, and other things are a mess. He still needs Snape for Dark Magic.

    And with a private tutoring session every week, it's as if he's become Snape's protégé. After some time, developing a sense of affection, it wouldn't be out of the question to adopt him as a godfather.

    When people don't have faces, they are invincible in the world. In order to improve one's strength, adopting a godfather is also acceptable.

    Seeing George's quick agreement, Snape was taken aback, with an inexplicable sense of being duped in his heart. However, after thinking it over, he realized that it didn't matter. He was more than willing to favor his own house by having a prodigy emerge from it.

    Upon notifying Snape, Hooch led George back to the lawn outside the castle.

    As soon as George returned, he was surrounded by young wizards, eagerly inquiring what Hooch had taken him to do.

    He didn't hide everything; he directly said that he had met with Headmaster Snape and had been exceptionally admitted to the Slytherin Quidditch team, but he didn't mention the tutoring matter.

    This answer naturally caused quite a stir among the young wizards. The Slytherin wizards were full of pride, while the Gryffindor wizards felt somewhat disappointed.

    "I thought I'd have a chance to beat him in Quidditch class, but it turns out even that area has fallen behind him."

    Ginny sighed as she looked at George surrounded by the crowd.

    On the side, Colin wasn't discouraged, but instead picked up his camera and started taking pictures.

    "It's not that he's George, but he really is putting in the effort. I've heard that he's usually the last one to leave the common room at night, and he's also a friend of ours."

    "You're right, at least it's George, not someone else."

    A faint smile appeared on Ginny's face.

    George isn't just a bit better than them; he's a comprehensive crushing and putting in so much effort that it's hard to generate envy.

    After the flying lesson ended and watching George walk off to the Great Hall with the other young wizards, Professor Hooch, with her wand, gathered all the flying brooms together, and couldn't help but mutter to herself:

    "No, I must have a word with Bagman about this. Perhaps we can turn around our position in international Quidditch for years to come."

    Ludo Bagman, the current director of the British Ministry of Magic's Department of Magical Sports and Quidditch, was also her predecessor in the Quidditch team before she retired to teach at Hogwarts.

    Over the years, the English Quidditch team has been defeated time and time again, nearly becoming the bottom of the international Quidditch teams.

    With a talent like George, who is once in a thousand years, joining the team, it's possible that the current state of the English Quidditch team could be turned around.

    As for the issue of George being young and still in school.

    As for the issue of George being young and still in school. Recently, a fifth-grade student named Viktor Krum from Durmstrang School has been exceptionally admitted to the Bulgarian Quidditch team due to his exceptional seeker talent, and George naturally can do the same.

    She believes that George's talent in Quidditch is definitely above that of Viktor Krum.

    "George joining the Slytherin team is a perfect opportunity for Bagman to see this year's Hogwarts Quidditch match with his own eyes."

    In the evening, the news of George's exceptional admission to the Slytherin team spread throughout the school, including the difficult moves he used during flying class.

    Many young wizards who are obsessed with Quidditch are well-informed about those famous moves.

    This also boosted George's reputation in the entire Slytherin house and across the entire school to a new level.

    The older Slytherins addressed him with a bit more courtesy.

    Of course, not all Slytherins were happy about this, for example, Malfoy who only managed to enter the team after his father spent a lot of money.

    But it's obvious that there's nothing he can do besides sulking.

    Before long, it was Saturday, and George was called over to Snape's office early that morning for a tutorial.

    Each Saturday morning, he has a tutorial with George, as he promised.

    "I'm teaching the Repel Curse now. This spell is a basic spell, but don't underestimate basic spells. If used well, they can be more powerful than advanced spells."

    "For example, the Repel Charm... if used well, it can even repel dragons..."

    Under Snape's strict but detailed guidance, George gained a deeper understanding of Dark Magic and magical combat.

    He used to think that Avada Kedavra and the Incendio spell were the most powerful curses, one that guaranteed death and the other with a wide range that could even burn down an entire city.

    But through Snape's explanation, he realized that it wasn't like that. The most suitable spell for a given situation and opponent is the strongest spell.

    Sometimes, Avada Kedavra and Incendio might not be as effective as a basic spell.

    Against small and agile enemies, the Killing Curse is virtually impossible to hit, requiring a wider range but less powerful Freeze spell.

    And for magical creatures with extremely high resistance like dragons, even the Killing Curse and Incendio spells may not cause much harm, but eye-related curses like Levioso can work wonders.

    The Repel Charm works in the same way; it creates a forward-moving physical pressure wave using magical force in front of the target, so even creatures with high magical resistance cannot be immune to it.

    A Repel Charm used by a master like Dumbledore could indeed push a dragon away directly.

    In the afternoon, Snape took George to the Quidditch pitch outside the castle himself.

    However, at the Quidditch pitch at the moment, there seemed to be both the Slytherin team and the Gryffindor team present, and things seemed to be quite wrong.

    The Slytherin team was laughing so hard they were falling, with captain Flint unable to stand up straight and supporting himself with his new broomstick, Malfoy pounding the ground with his fists.

    Over on the other side, the Gryffindor team had gathered around Ron, with Hermione and Colin holding a camera taking photos. At this moment, Ron was constantly blowing out shiny snails of snot.

    "What's going on?"

    Snape asked with a somber face.

    At the sight of Snape, the Slytherin team members immediately straightened up, and captain Flint quickly said:

    "Headmaster, I came here with a permit you issued, but Wood refused. They sent Ron Weasley there, who then attacked Malfoy in an attempt to take advantage of the situation. Unfortunately, he didn't cast the spell well and it bounced back on him."

    "Today the pitch belongs to the Slytherin team. Ron Weasley used magic to attack his classmates at school. Gryffindor is deducted ten points."

    Snape delivered the punishment without expression, and then, upon seeing Harry who was responsible for Ron, he added with a face full of disgust:

    "Potter, you were right next to Ron. Why didn't you stop him? Do you think his mistakes can prove that you're better? Gryffindor will be deducted ten points!"

    Harry, who was already bitter about Gryffindor being deducted points, froze up completely at Snape's words.

    George couldn't help but pull his lip at the sight, and to be honest, he really felt sympathy for Harry.

    But there's nothing you can do, who made you Harry?

    ...
