Upon hearing the sudden sound, Sean's heart skipped a beat.
He clearly changed the password to the principal's office door, so why are people still able to get in?
But in short, the undeniable fact is that someone has come in.
Sean looked up and saw that the witch was tall and graceful, with a face so exquisite that she looked like a goddess from heaven.
She has a pair of bright, beautiful eyes, and a half-smile playing on her lips, exuding an indescribable charm.
The witch strode gracefully toward Sean. As she drew nearer, Sean noticed her alluring curves beneath her clothes, the fabric of her dress revealing an enticing cleavage.
Daphne Greengrass.
This was the first name that popped into Sean's mind.
As her name suggests, Daphne is a name that embodies endless poetry and mystery. It is taken from Daphne, the beautiful and pure laurel goddess in Greek mythology.
In mythology, Daphne was the object of Apollo's passionate pursuit, and her image represents freshness, nature, and eternal beauty.
At this moment, Daphne was like a goddess who had stepped out of ancient mythology; her presence seemed to make everything around her pale in comparison.
"Look what I've found," she chuckled.
For months, she had vaguely sensed an unusual connection between the Ravenclaw prefect Penelope and the Gryffindor prefect Percy.
Their behavior always seemed strange; sometimes they whispered to each other, sometimes they exchanged mysterious smiles.
It was as if they were sharing some unknown secret.
Driven by intense curiosity and a desire to uncover the truth, she decided to secretly investigate the two people.
More importantly, she harbored a small, malicious thought deep inside: how delightful it would be to embarrass the Gryffindor prefects!
So she began to secretly follow Penelope, from Myrtle's bathroom to the library, and then to Hagrid's cottage; her presence was everywhere.
However, as time went on, she found Penelope's behavior becoming increasingly eccentric.
Today, when she secretly followed Penelope again, she was surprised to find her walking into the principal's office.
After much hesitation, she slipped inside the stone door the moment it closed.
What she didn't expect was that this lead would lead her to discover a shocking secret—Professor Phillips, who had just become the principal, was actually the mastermind behind the locked-room mystery.
What surprised her even more was that Professor Sean actually wanted to...
Fortunately, she didn't miss the show today because she overslept.
Thinking of this, Daphne breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon seeing Daphne, Penelope's eyes lit up with hope. Like a drowning person grasping at a straw, she reached out desperately, her voice filled with undisguised pleading: "Save me, Phillips is going to..."
However, Sean did not respond immediately.
He frowned, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes, and then quickly cast a forbidden spell on Penelope.
Penelope's words were abruptly interrupted. A look of shock and despair flashed in her eyes, but she was unable to move and could only watch helplessly as Sean appeared.
After doing all this, Sean slowly turned his head to look at Daphne. His eyes were filled with complex emotions, including doubt, vigilance, and a hint of calculation that was not easily detected.
He spoke slowly, his voice deep and powerful: "Miss Greengrass, what are you doing here?"
Daphne's appearance undoubtedly disrupted his plans.
"Oh, Professor Phillips, it seems I've disturbed you." Daphne's ambiguous smile deepened. "I just happened to be passing by and heard some interesting noises, so I couldn't resist coming in to take a look."
Seemingly having already seen Sean slowly raising his arm, Daphne calmly added, "By the way, Professor Phillips, I'm not like that idiot Penelope who came to you unprepared. I have defensive alchemical artifacts prepared by my family. If you didn't restrain me immediately and gave me a chance to speak..."
So, all these things you've done...:
Is Sean scared?
How could he possibly be afraid?
To prevent outsiders from hearing him and Bella doing their homework at Dumbledore's desk, he installed soundproof alchemy devices throughout the room.
The moment the stone door outside closed, the entire room became his domain.
However, out of curiosity, Sean still wanted to see what Daphne would do next.
So Sean slowly put down his wand and put it back at his waist, trying to make his tone sound gentle and friendly. "Miss Greengrass, how could I possibly lay a hand on you?" he said, spreading his hands to show his harmlessness and sincerity.
"Oh, really?" Daphne, thinking her threat had worked, simply shook her head, a hint of mockery in her smile. "I thought Professor Phillips, who just became the principal, was going to kill me too."
Sean was not angered by Daphne's few words. "Speak, Miss Greengrass, what do you want from me? I know you must have your reasons. Just tell me directly, and perhaps we can reach some kind of agreement."
The fact that Daphne hasn't called anyone in yet already speaks volumes.
"Professor Phillips, you are indeed very intelligent," she said slowly, her voice carrying a hint of admiration. "I have indeed come with a purpose, and I believe that we can reach some kind of agreement."
Upon hearing this, Sean's heart stirred.
So he put on a bitter expression and asked.
"Then please tell me, what do you want?"
"Gold Galleons? I can pay you fifty thousand gold galleons, as long as you keep quiet about what happened today."
Daphne smiled gently, a smile as refreshing as a spring breeze, yet carrying a subtle, unspoken meaning. "Professor Phillips, you certainly are a straightforward person. However, Galleons mean nothing to me."
Upon hearing this, Sean's curiosity grew even stronger.
He hadn't expected that Daphne wouldn't be interested in Galleons.
But that's understandable. As a direct descendant of a pure-blooded family, it's not hard to understand why he wouldn't look down on Galleon.
So, what does she really want?
There was only one way to find out the answer to this question: to ask her directly. So, Sean's bitter expression deepened. "Then, Miss Greengrass, what exactly do you want?"
Daphne smiled slightly, her smile carrying a hint of cunning, like a sly fox plotting some kind of scheme.
"Professor Phillips, what I want is very simple." Her words were soft and seductive, like a sweet trap waiting for Sean to step into. "I need your help to complete a task, and only you can complete this task for me."
Penelope, who was standing next to Daphne, had a look of fear and despair in her eyes when she heard Daphne's words.
She understood that if Sean agreed to Daphne's request, she would be in unpredictable danger.
However, she was unable to move or stop it from happening; she could only watch helplessly as things unfolded, her heart filled with helplessness and fear.
Sean understood.
As he expected, Daphne, or rather the Greengrass family, did indeed have something to ask him.
So he asked in a deep voice, "What mission?"
Daphne's smile grew increasingly cunning, like a sly little fox smugly watching its prey about to fall into its trap. She gently lifted one foot, her toes lightly touching the ground.
"My task is simple, Professor Phillips," she said slowly, her voice tinged with amusement and mockery, "I need you to kiss my feet as a sign of your sincerity."
Her eyes gleamed with anticipation and excitement, as if she couldn't wait to see Sean's humiliation.
For her, nothing could be more delightful than seeing the dignified headmaster of Hogwarts, the famous author, and the wizarding world's most popular Sean Phillips, kissing the top of her shoe with a humiliated expression.
Sean's die-hard fans probably never dreamed this would happen.
In Daphne's mind, Sean was nothing more than a filthy mud-blood, a lowly being only fit to lick her feet.
She relished the trampling and humiliation of Sean because it made her feel superior and powerful.
Thinking of this, an indescribable feeling welled up from the depths of her heart, filling her body to the point that her face flushed and her body felt somewhat weak.
Upon hearing this, Sean's expression changed drastically.
He looked at Daphne in disbelief.
Kiss her feet?
This is an absolute insult to his dignity!
He meows.
He thought it was some kind of mission.
That's all?
On his very first day in office, Principal Phillips wasted his precious working time on two little witches.
Most importantly, one of the little witches entered his office without knocking and brazenly asked him to lick her feet.
This is intolerable, but absolutely intolerable.
Out of a deep desire to uphold the dignity due to the headmaster, and to help the young and misguided witch truly recognize the wrong nature of her actions, thereby comprehensively improving the overall moral standards and school spirit of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Shaun, the esteemed headmaster of this ancient institution, after careful consideration, finally devised a plan that was both ingenious and educational.
He decided to fulfill the little witch's seemingly unreasonable but actually deeply hidden needs in an unprecedented way, as an opportunity to guide her to self-reflection and self-growth—nothing is more devastating than the collapse of a plan just as it is about to be achieved.
Daphne watched as Sean slowly squatted down, a satisfied smile playing on her lips.
However, just as the smile of victory bloomed, Sean's figure suddenly froze, as if pulled by some invisible force, making his movements no longer so smooth and natural.
"What's going on?" Daphne snapped impatiently. "Hurry up, do you still want me to keep your secret?"
Meeting Daphne's questioning and dissatisfied gaze, Sean slowly stood up, his eyes turning unusually cold.
He stared intently at Daphne, his eyes seemingly able to see through everything, making Daphne feel inexplicably guilty.
Then, he spoke slowly, his voice deep and powerful, "Now, I'm also giving you a task."
"What?" Daphne asked, still confused.
She had thought Sean had completely submitted to her, but he suddenly seemed like a different person, which surprised and unsettled her.
"Go and use the Imperius Curse to control her." Sean's lips curled into a cold smile as he spoke, glancing at Penelope beside him.
