HP: Embrace the Darkness

As the oldest, most senior, and headmaster, Dumbledore had to give up cookies for the time being.

He stood up with a smile and thanked the manservant for his explanation and guidance.

The footmen said it was their duty and replaced the juice for Dumbledore and others.

After confirming that there were no mistakes, he was ready to leave.

"and many more."

Several people looked at Snape who was speaking at the same time.

"What's the matter? Mr. Snape?"

The footman stopped and waited for Snape's next instructions.

Snape felt an inexplicable impulse in the different eyes of several people.

Wanting to twist the time turner and go back to the moment, he covered his mouth to stop the valet.

"I...it's okay."

Hearing Snape's slightly unusual answer, the manservant remained calm.

He bowed politely to several people and left the hall.

"Severus, doesn't this look like you?"

Dumbledore took a sip of the new juice and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

"Huh? This juice seems different from the one just now."

The completely different taste in his mouth made Dumbledore unwilling to find out what was wrong with Snape.

Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick also took a sip of the juice curiously.

"This one is more mellow? Although the word mellow is not appropriate to describe the juice."

This is a comment from Professor Flitwick.

Professor McGonagall slowly tasted the juice in her mouth and commented:

"It tastes like wine but without the alcohol smell. The fruity flavor is rich and mellow. This is also an appropriate description."

"If Mr. Cavendish is willing to open a shop like this in Hogsmeade, I will definitely support him."

Finally, Dumbledore concluded the review of this glass of juice.

Snape looked at these three people who had no sense of dean or principal, and had a strong desire to stay away from them.

Dumbledore noticed his intention and pulled him over. Together with the other two deans, he kept lobbying Snape to relax and learn to enjoy himself.

Snape responded with every word of their siege in an angry manner.

Beautiful music sounded, and the bickering of several people temporarily stopped.

Everyone looked at Asseth.

Aces is the protagonist of this banquet today, and the first dance of the ball naturally starts with him.

All kinds of expectant, shy, or direct gazes fell on Asseth.

Asseth's smile remained unchanged and he walked towards Anna who was standing next to the Duke.

When other people saw his choice, they felt regretful but couldn't say anything.

Walking up to Anna, Asseth nodded to the Duke first.

The Duke glared at him and stepped aside silently.

After receiving the agreement, Asseth bowed slightly to Anna and stretched out his hand.

"My beautiful mother, may I ask you to dance?"

A smile broke out on Anna's delicate face, and she elegantly picked up her skirt and returned the favor.

"Of course, my handsome son."

The two looked at each other and smiled, holding hands and walking towards the ballroom.

The graceful and soft music sounded, and the two of them slid into the center of the ballroom in a dancing posture in perfect harmony.

Aces' dance was taught by Anna, and Anna knew his habits best.

Anna is also Asses's longest dance partner, and he knows exactly what Anna thinks.

Therefore, with the tacit cooperation of the two, this is a very ornamental dance, as elegant and beautiful as a swan crossing its neck.

The people below were watching the dance, and the two people dancing above were chatting.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, good son, have you seen your dad's face? It's almost turning dark."

Anna had an elegant smile on her face, but she laughed at the Duke's black face.

"Oh, you may not know who Dahei is. Dahei is the black dog your cousin raised before. Later, he bit your cousin. From that time on, she hated black dogs particularly hahaha..."

Before Asseth had any reaction, Anna couldn't stop laughing.

"But son, why did you think of inviting me? There are obviously so many beautiful and young witches here."

Aces had a smile similar to Anna's on his face and answered Anna's words between actions.

"Mom, look at the way they look at your son. I wonder if I would be able to walk out of this dance hall today if I danced with them."

"Isn't it really because you're afraid of someone getting jealous?"

"He won't be jealous, he will just have random thoughts."

Aces's voice suddenly became dull, and he couldn't help but look at Snape as he turned.

Seeing that her son was depressed, Anna started to change the topic after turning around.

"Is the method mentioned in your previous letter feasible?"

"I haven't tried it yet, so I can't guarantee the effect."

Asseth took back his thoughts and answered Anna's words.

This is obviously not the answer Anna wants.

"Since we haven't tried it before, let's try it now."

"Can I say no?"

Aces stretched out his arms, threw Anna away and then pulled her back. Anna's skirt bloomed as it turned.

"My answer to you is, no."

Aces was helpless.

what is this? Forced buying and selling?

hurry up!

Anna put her hand on Asseth hard and kept urging him with her eyes.

Unable to twist Anna, Asseth could only change the dance steps. After a spin, his hand slid down Anna's waist smoothly and naturally.

Facing the Duke's murderous gaze, he lifted Anna up high, and the wide skirt drew a graceful arc, changing in mid-air with the movements of the two of them.

Anna was very lucky that she was wearing a dark purple dress with a large skirt today.

This is really too much to push around in circles!

After completing the circle, Anna hinted at patting Asseth again, and Asses understood.

The magic power on the body moved according to the master's will, and brilliant starlight bloomed around the spinning two people.

Swirling around Anna in mid-air, making her look like a gentle and dazzling goddess in the night sky.

This beautiful scene made everyone paying attention marvel, especially the young girls.

Snape could clearly see that the eyes of many aristocratic girls were bright, and some of them were bold enough to even hold up their skirts, hoping that they would win Artes' next dance partner.

No one can resist such a romantic and powerful wizard.

This is normal.

He calmly raised the cup and took a sip of juice, no longer looking at Asseth.

As soon as the dance was over, before Ass had time to breathe a sigh of relief, he saw several girls walking towards him with determination in their eyes.

The idea of ​​​​running away reached its peak at this moment.

You must know that according to the regulations, he cannot refuse the lady's invitation.

The smile on his face was still there, but Asseth's eyes swept around wildly, trying to find a way out.

Just when Artes was at a loss and was about to run away, Susanna, wearing a black dress and red hair, came to Artes first.

After a brief weighing of the pros and cons, Asseth immediately extended his hand and invited Susanna with a smile.

For him currently, dancing with Susanna is the best choice.
