HP: Embrace the Darkness

Elise pursed her lips and gave up getting up. She lay on the ground and looked at the ceiling, her eyes empty and confused.

"Sir, do you think I can go back to the way we were before with her?"

Aces was silent for a moment and comforted him warmly: "There will come a time."

Is it really?

The lights in the classroom are so dazzling.

Elise raised her hands to cover her eyes, also covering the tears falling inside.

Asseth sighed softly, took out a new handkerchief and handed it over, then stepped away considerately, waiting for her to regain her mood.

After a while, Elise sat up and said, "Thank you, sir."

The young man who was thanked smiled gently and said, "If you can be happy, you don't have to thank me."

"it is good."

Elise smiled slightly and looked at Asseth with bright eyes.

The gentleman is so kind, if he is a gentleman, he shouldn't be able to refuse...

If she refuses, there seems to be nothing she can do. How about she learn how to chase someone first? And then give advice to your husband?

But the husband doesn't seem to realize it yet. Could it be that she has misunderstood? Do you want to stop observing?

Elise looked at Asseth thoughtfully.

Artes didn't know what was going on in her mind, and he felt relieved when he saw that she no longer seemed to be obsessed with those things.

……

The following days passed by like water.

Under the arrangement of Aces, the bottle of unicorn blood with added ingredients was stolen and consumed by Quirrell.

Feeling the strangeness coming from the blood, Asses relaxed and concentrated on finding a way to put a protective shield on the savior.

Looking at the small props worn by Harry, Artes retracted his hand that was about to move and no longer paid attention to the savior.

On the day when he discovered something strange about Quirrell, Asses encountered the situation he least expected to encounter.

A storm is coming.

Aces was silent. He calculated the time in his mind. He was now chatting in the cellar, but in just half a month, a storm with thunder and lightning came as promised.

Needless to say, the potion master's mouth is not an ordinary efficacious one.

Now that the storm is coming, he has no choice but to wish the savior good luck. Fortunately, he put some props on him, and with the bottle of unicorn blood, nothing will happen to him... right?

Aces left the lounge and stood alone by the window in the corridor, covering his heart with his right hand, silently feeling the heartbeat. His eyes fell on the dark sky, his eyes were calm, and he quietly waited for the arrival of lightning.

The dark clouds in the sky were too thick, covering the sky without any light, and the world seemed dull and depressing.

It wasn't until a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky that the dark clouds that covered the sky were broken, and the sky suddenly dawned, bringing a glimmer of light to the world.

The light brought by lightning reflected in Asseth's eyes, and his black eyes were dyed with a faint bright color, but he did not act immediately, but took out the alchemy map.

His eyes were precisely focused on Quirrell, who was moving to the room where the three-headed dog was placed, and the savior, who was wandering around without knowing what he was doing.

The fingertips tapped lightly on Snape, who was still in the cellar, seeming a little hesitant.

Another bolt of lightning flashed across, and Artes no longer hesitated. He turned around and went back to his room. He changed his clothes and put on his black robe. Wearing the Disillusionment Curse, he left Hogwarts Castle and headed straight for the Forbidden Forest.

The already eerie Forbidden Forest looked even more depressing and terrifying in such weather. The shadows falling from the snarling branches were like devils with their bloody mouths, waiting for opportunities to move.

Aces felt nothing and did not even slow down. He avoided the animals in the Forbidden Forest and came to the Unicorn Valley.

Outside the valley, the unicorn leader Cynthia stretched out her silver head anxiously and looked around, seemingly waiting for something.

As soon as Asseth appeared, it snorted loudly in excitement.

"Quick, Asseth, here."

Aces walked quickly to it, followed behind it, and came to the dark corner where the small medicine bottles were placed.

Cynthia urged: "Open it quickly and take a look. I just saw lightning and I didn't dare to touch it."

Aces nodded, then squatted down, carefully opened the covering stone, and revealed the small medicine bottle inside. He picked up the small medicine bottle and took a closer look. There was a mouthful of blood-red liquid inside.

Lift it up and shake it gently, the light flows.

no problem.

Aces breathed a sigh of relief. All the things he had worried about had not happened.

He looked at Cynthia who was looking forward to the side, and nodded to her with curled lips.

Cynthia suddenly became excited and leaned forward, her huge head burrowing into Ass's arms.

"Great, great, you succeeded, Asseth."

Ace stroked its mane, shook his head slightly and pushed it away.

"It didn't succeed. It's still a little bit close now. I'll leave it to you later..."

Cynthia followed his example, nodded solemnly, and assured him that they would take good care of him.

Aces took the small medicine bottle, and one man and one beast came to an open place in the valley. There were several unicorns surrounding the valley far away, all looking at him worriedly, including Estella's family of three.

Aces smiled placatingly at the unicorns around him, then took off the black robe used to cover up, revealing the simple shirt underneath. He also took off the alchemy tools he was carrying one by one, leaving only Alchemical ring.

He took a deep breath, calmly raised his hand, pointed the wand at his heart, and whispered the Animagus spell.

"Amador, Animo, Animado, Animagus."

The spell quickly took effect, and the second heartbeat in his heart became more and more obvious. Aces quickly opened the vial and drank the blood-red potion in one gulp.

When the potion entered my mouth, before I could fully feel its taste, heartbreaking pain suddenly hit me.

Aces covered his heart with his right hand, enduring the strange feeling of two heartbeats and physical pain. He lowered his head, with broken hair scattered, trying not to let the unicorn see the ferocious expression on his face.

Amid the intense pain and heartbeat, a familiar animal figure slowly appeared in Asseth's mind. Before he could be surprised, the animal figure rushed towards him excitedly.

The moment he was pounced on, the pain intensified, and Aces held his heart harder with his hand. Veins burst out on his hand, and the half-moon mark was revealed on the back of his hand. Silver magic flowed out uncontrollably, sweeping down his fingertips to his heart. .

Huge magic power began to rage in his body, and his body began to change accordingly. Aces gritted his teeth and forced himself to relax his body and not resist the changes.

Thanks to his efforts, snow-white hair sprouted from his body. The snow-white hair spread from his chest and covered his whole body bit by bit.

Aces gradually disappeared, and a huge snow-white figure appeared in his place.

The transformation was successful, followed by the disappearance of humanity.

At that moment, the most primitive animal instinct overwhelmed the human reason.

Artes lowered his body uncontrollably, and low roars came from his throat. The roaring sound made all the unicorns around him retreat, looking at Artes with frightened and helpless eyes.
