Hogwarts: I am the White Demon King

With a deep sense of sorrow, Peter pointed at Sirius, his voice choked with tears.

"Lupin has been deceived by Sirius. The truth is nothing like what he just said."

"Sirius is a murderer, a heartless and deranged dark wizard. Don't let his acting fool you."

Peter's eyes were bloodshot as he relentlessly laid out his reasons.

"Don't forget, the entire Black family are extreme pure-blood supremacists, without exception. Their whole family are supporters of the Dark Lord."

"His parents started funding the Dark Lord before he even rose to power;

His cousin, Bellatrix Black, is the Dark Lord's most fanatical and loyal servant;

His own brother, Regulus Black, was also a significant figure among the Death Eaters."

Saying this, Peter looked at Sirius, his face twisted in a vicious question.

"Sirius, is what I'm saying true, do you dare deny it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Harry and Hermione looked at Sirius in astonishment, awaiting his response.

They had never imagined that the Black family's affiliations were so pure, with almost all family members connected to Voldemort.

Ron wasn't that surprised. Having grown up in the wizarding world, he had long been aware of the Black family's background.

Faced with Peter's accusations, Sirius openly admitted it.

"I don't deny what you just said. My family are all villains, scoundrels, the dregs of the wizarding world."

"But," Sirius's tone shifted, "it's because I couldn't stand their ways that I rebelled against the family early on, and then my mother disowned me from the family tree."

"Lies!" Peter retorted sharply, "Who knows if this isn't your family's scheme, to have you infiltrate Dumbledore's camp as a spy, to secretly pass information to the Dark Lord."

"You can fool others, but you can't fool me."

Seemingly having caught a loophole in Sirius's words, Peter's tone became excited.

"You were disowned by your family at the age of 16, when you were still at Hogwarts, but from then until after graduation, you never lacked Galleons."

"Not only that, but you've always maintained a habit of spending money lavishly. You even bought a Muggle-made high-end motorcycle, which, according to the Galleon exchange rate, was a considerable sum of money."

"After graduation, you didn't do any work, you just joined Headmaster Dumbledore's resistance against the Dark Lord, but the Headmaster never paid us a salary."

Peter's expression was somewhat smug: "Tell me, where did your Galleons come from? Don't say it was all from James."

"If it was from James, then why didn't he support Lupin? You should know that because of his werewolf status, Lupin has always had a difficult life."

Hearing this, Harry's heart stirred, and he quickly looked at Sirius.

Indeed, if he was disowned by his family, Sirius shouldn't have any source of income and should be living in poverty.

But listening to Peter Pettigrew's words, Sirius not only didn't lack money to spend, but he could also buy a motorcycle, which didn't seem like the state of someone who had been disowned.

If it was funded by his father, it wouldn't make sense either. Professor Lupin was a ready example.

Could it be that, as Peter Pettigrew said, Sirius outwardly broke away from the family, but in reality, it was just to make it easier to go undercover?

Thinking of this, Harry's judgment began to waver, and he felt that Peter Pettigrew's words made some sense.

Sirius was stunned. He had never imagined that he would be caught out on the issue of money.

But he couldn't refute it. After being disowned by the family, the family didn't cut off his financial support. He could still withdraw Galleons from Gringotts. In addition, one of his uncles also gave him a sum of Galleons.

With the mentality of 'why not spend it if you can', and that spending the enemy's funds was strengthening his own team, he spent it without any psychological burden.

However, after coming out of Azkaban, he found that the Galleons his uncle had given him before had already been spent.

Moreover, he didn't know why, but he couldn't withdraw Galleons from Gringotts either.

Originally, he had even tried to order gifts for Harry using the owl ordering method, but it ended in failure.

Looking at Sirius's flushed face, Sebastian sighed slightly in his heart.

He could actually understand why Sirius was still able to spend the Black family's money after being expelled.

The reason for all of this came from Sirius's mother—Walburga Black.

She was a very ambitious woman who was committed to making the Black family the top pure-blood family in the wizarding world.

At the same time, she was also a very clever woman. After discovering that her eldest son was rebelling against the Dark Lord, she outwardly expelled him from the family, but in reality, she was going along with the tide and betting on both sides.

Sirius's defection was a spare piece for Walburga, an insurance policy to ensure the Black family's survival.

In this way, whether Voldemort won or lost, the Black family could continue to live on in glory.

However, she didn't expect that neither of her sons would follow her script, causing the Black family to fall completely, and in the eyes of outsiders, it was no different from being destroyed.

Sebastian shook his head lightly, focusing his attention back on Peter, continuing to watch his wonderful performance.

"I have a lot more evidence!" Peter Pettigrew shouted hoarsely.

"On the night Harry's parents sacrificed themselves, Sirius clearly went to find Harry, but he didn't think about fulfilling his godfather's responsibility, but instead chose to chase after me in a hurry."

"Think about why this is?"

Meeting Harry's doubtful gaze, Peter Pettigrew wept bitterly, "He wanted to silence me!"

"As long as I die, no one will ever know what he did!"

"The Secret-Keeper was changed to me, but Sirius was also one of the people who knew about it."

"In the beginning, at James's request, I gave Sirius a piece of parchment with James's home address on it."

"He must have not destroyed it after reading it, but instead offered that parchment to the Dark Lord."

"Nonsense!" Sirius roared, his eyes fixed on Peter Pettigrew with a murderous gaze, "It was clearly you who betrayed James and Lily, how dare you..."

Sirius twisted his body desperately. If he wasn't bound by chains, he would rush up and fight this bastard with his life.

Harry felt his brain turn into mush. He was dizzy and didn't know who to believe.

Lupin was also somewhat hesitant. Peter Pettigrew's words plunged clear facts into a fog again.

He felt that Peter's statement was fine, but the other party's behavior as a rat for more than ten years was suspicious.

Peter Pettigrew glanced at the gloomy Snape and administered another strong dose.

"Poor Lily, she was so young, she sacrificed herself at a young age because she followed James and trusted the wrong person. Sirius, this bastard, deserves to die!"

"Shut up!" Sirius roared, "You are not worthy to mention Lily and James's names!"

Peter ignored Sirius's shouting and just lowered his head with tears in his eyes.

He knew Lily's weight in Snape's heart, so he wanted to use Lily's death to stimulate Snape, in the hope that Snape would lose his mind and directly kill Sirius, this enemy.

Go on, Snape!

Think about the feud between you and Sirius.

Think about Lily's wailing before her death.

How can you bear not to kill Sirius, this bastard?

Come on, with just one green light, you not only won't be held responsible, but you'll become a hero for killing a fugitive.

And I will live in the sun openly, and I will no longer have to worry about the truth being exposed.

Peter Pettigrew looked at the ground, putting on a heartbroken look, while constantly cursing in his heart.

What are you still standing there for!

Kill Sirius quickly!

Severus Snape!
