HP: Embrace the Darkness

Aces resigned himself to his fate and stood up to clean up the stall for Snape.

First, pick up the two people who violated school rules and return them to Professor McGonagall.

Then tell Professor McGonagall to go get a certain cat lady.

The plan is good, but the plan cannot keep up with changes.

Professor McGonagall rejected Artes' suggestion to fish for Hermione. She had to find a way to make Harry and Ron remember the lesson this time and had no time to fish for Hermione.

So the last person to go to the bathroom was Asseth, who was once again caught as a coolie.

When Asseth found the bathroom, he was completely speechless.

Isn't this the same bathroom where he felt threatened when he transformed into the little white tiger?

It's a miracle that these three lions are still alive.

The bathroom was a girls' bathroom, and his upbringing made it impossible for Artes to go in even if he knew there was only Hermione in there.

So he stopped at the door.

"Miss Granger, come out."

There were rustling noises from the bathroom, as well as voices and laughter. Several sounds were mixed together, making it difficult to hear them clearly.

The sound gradually died away, but no one came out of the bathroom.

Instead, a translucent figure emerged.

Myrtle clicked her tongue in surprise, circling around Asseth, with undisguised covetous eyes.

The next second she ran back on her own.

After she left, Asseth's tense right hand relaxed, and the wand attached to his arm stopped falling.

Seeing that there was still no movement inside, he calmed down and knocked lightly on the door frame.

"Miss Granger, Mr. Potter has explained everything, including your situation."

In the narrow compartment, Hermione shrank with her eyes closed, enduring Myrtle's strange gaze and Arthur's urging, but made no move.

She didn't want to be seen like this by anyone, especially Asseth, who had saved her.

Because she was too resistant, she shrank back inside.

"Miss Granger."

Aces frowned, thinking of Hermione's situation, but suppressed his impatience and softened his tone.

"If you are worried about your appearance, there is no need. No one will laugh at you for a mistake."

Tears welled up in Hermione's eyes when she heard Arthur's comfort.

This time, Asseth didn't press.

After a while, Hermione walked out of the bathroom dejectedly with her cat head on her head.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cavendish, I didn't mean to."

Her voice was still hoarse from crying.

"It's ok."

Artes lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Go to the school infirmary first, and we'll talk about the rest later. This is what Professor McGonagall meant."

"it is good."

Hermione responded with a sob.

After sending the person to the infirmary, Asses was able to retire successfully.

Asses paid no attention to the aftermath of this incident, because a few days later the Duke and Anna arrived, bringing their gifts.

The first thing the Duke and Anna did when they arrived at Hogwarts was to meet Dumbledore.

The three of them talked in the principal's office for a long time, and when they finally came out, they all had smiles of satisfaction.

Asses knew that the Duke and Anna had arranged what he had written to request.

Taking into account Dumbledore's control over Hogwarts Castle, the three Dukes did not have a detailed discussion at the school, but went to the Three Broomsticks pub outside.

As soon as she entered the box, Anna couldn't wait to pull Asses over and looked him up and down carefully. Her eyes were strange and excited, and if you look closely, you could see relief.

Asseth said helplessly: "Mom."

"Farewell, Mom, tell me what you think first, I'm curious."

Anna pushed Artes, who was resisting ineffectively, into a chair, while she crossed her arms and looked down at him, assuming an interrogation attitude.

The Duke also stood behind Anna, both of their eyes fixed on Asseth's face.

"I think I have written clearly what I think? As for anything else, if you want to know anything, you can just ask."

Aces didn't feel scared, he just felt a little helpless.

Ana's eyes lit up and she asked first: "Do you really recognize him?"

"Yes."

"besides……"

Anna was a little nervous and a little excited.

"How far have you come?"

Aces: "..."

The Duke standing behind Anna: "..."

Anna was completely unaware of the two people's feelings. When Asses didn't answer, she thought he was shy, so she changed the question enthusiastically.

"when--"

Before he finished speaking, the Duke covered his mouth.

Anna turned around and slapped the Duke's hand away angrily, her eyebrows raised, "William Cavendish, what are you going to do?"

The Duke patted her back reassuringly and pulled her to the door.

"Isn't it a bad thing for you to ask?"

The Duke's words hit Anna's target, and she exploded.

"Why is it bad? I care about my son. Unlike you, you didn't do anything after knowing the news. You don't care about your son at all."

"That was not what I meant."

The Duke sighed: "Have you ever considered that they never made it?"

The Duke had met Snape once, and from that alone he knew that Snape was not an easy person to impress.

What's more, what Artes wants to do is completely opposite to the Death Eaters. If he remembers correctly, Severus Snape is a famous Death Eater.

"You still don't understand your son."

Anna looked at the Duke with hatred, and stabbed his face hard with her slender fingers.

"If you didn't have any clues, your son wouldn't write a letter in a hurry to test our attitude."

"Also, didn't you notice your son's tail rising up to the sky? Doesn't it look familiar to you? He's exactly the same as you were back then."

The fingers became harder and harder, causing a thin blush on the Duke's face. The Duke had no choice but to hold Anna's fingers.

"Why do you still like poking your face so much?"

"Who makes your face look as white and tender as a pretty face? I obviously value my face so much, but I still take care of it every day, but in the end it's not as good as washing your face with water."

Anna gets angry when she talks about this.

The Duke's face has always been fair and fair since she was a child, and her good skin makes every girl jealous of her.

Aces sat bored in the chair, watching the two of them flirting. Seeing that the topic was getting sidetracked, he had to speak out to remind the Duke and Anna of his existence.

"Actually, everything you said is right."

what?

Both of them turned back to look at Asseth.

This time it was the Duke who asked first, "Aces, what do you mean?"

"It's probably because we didn't make it, but we have something in common. I can't be specific. I'm shy."

Hearing this, the Duke and Anna's eyes became strange, shy? They dared to swear by their years of relationship that Asseth was definitely not shy.

Realizing that the two of them didn't believe it, Asseth changed his tune from being kind to Ruliu, "Sif is shy."

The look in their eyes was even weirder.

Now they would rather believe that Artes was shy than that Snape was shy.

Neither of them had much contact with Snape, but their brief contact made them feel that Snape was not a shy person at all.

Unable to imagine, Anna spoke at a loss for words, "Son, if you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it. There is no need to arrange it like this...Mr. Snape."

Aces was indeed not prepared to tell the Duke and Anna that what Snape was about to do was too dangerous, and the matter between them could only be kept secret, no matter who.
