HP: Embrace the Darkness

"Well, you have lived together for so many years, why do you still quarrel when you meet?"

Merlin spoke up to stop the argument between the two.

As soon as he spoke, both Salazar and Helbo, who still wanted to retort, fell silent.

Although they are both managers, the two of them together, even when tied up, cannot defeat Merlin, a manager who has lived for who knows how long.

Others also fell silent one after another and looked at the calm old man.

"Listen clearly, none of us can help him. This is his own path."

Merlin glanced at several people without any doubt, and looked at Salazar several times.

He knew that Salazar was just being tough, but in fact he was more protective than anyone else, especially Artes who was such an excellent Slytherin and gave him a crazy long face.

And Snape...

Salazar, who had lived for so many years, no longer cared so much about pure blood.

"……I see."

Salazar curled his lips and reluctantly agreed.

His childish appearance made Rowena look sideways, and Helga looked at each other.

The two witches had a perfect understanding, and Helga immediately understood and spoke to comfort her.

"You should believe that kid. Both Rowena and I think he is much smarter than you think."

"No matter how smart you are, you are still a child."

Salazar was still unwilling to give in, muttering as he tried to test Merlin's bottom line.

Merlin shook his head helplessly, "Compared to you, he doesn't look like a child."

Godric nodded in agreement, Salazar was really more childish than a child sometimes.

Salazar rolled his eyes at him, "Do you think you are not included in this one? You fool."

While a few people were noisy, Asseth stood under a tree in the distance, looking at the wooden house from a distance, his eyes were unclear, and he no longer looked like he was on the verge of collapse just now.

"Five, one more..."

"Salazar Slytherin, Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, who else is that?"

The voice of talking to myself disappeared in the wind.

Merlin in the room seemed to sense something, and looked in the direction of Asseth with a smile.

"Don't worry, that little guy already has an idea in mind, but I don't know yet what he plans to do? What will he do? And to what extent?"

Several people stopped their noisy bickering and looked at Merlin, who had a meaningful expression on his face.

"Can he really do what none of us can do?" Rowena didn't know what he was thinking of, and there was a trace of pain in his always gentle and wise eyes.

"Rowner?" Helga looked at her worriedly, the warm light surrounding her body, and the soft breath made Rowena's sadness lessen.

"I'm fine, it's just that I haven't thought about what happened before for a long time, and now that I suddenly think about it, I feel like it's like a lifetime ago."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

They have lived for so long that they have almost forgotten what happened before, their former friends, disciples and family members.

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely dull, and Haierbo turned into a snake again, spitting out letters impatiently.

"What's the use of talking so much here? If you want to know the final outcome, just wait. Anyway, these endless years are so long, it's good to have some entertainment."

As Salazar's rival for thousands of years, he naturally doesn't care about Ass's life or death.

"Helbo is right, we should go back, the others are still waiting for us."

Merlin looked at the five people in front of him kindly, but all five of them knew what was hidden under this kindness, and they all lit up various lights and disappeared into the wooden house.

Salazar was the last one to leave besides Merlin. He took advantage of Merlin not paying attention to him and quietly threw a pendant under the chair.

Then he looked in the direction Merlin was looking at before, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"Don't let me down, you boy."

Green light flashed and he disappeared into the cabin.

Merlin's body also lit up with white light, but he did not disappear immediately. Instead, he took away the thing Salazar left behind. When he saw it was a pendant, he smiled helplessly.

"Salazar, don't ruin that little guy's original idea."

Between the shrewd but sometimes unreliable Salazar and Asseth, Merlin still felt that Asses was reliable. Instead of letting Asses be influenced by them, it was better to let him perform on his own.

Maybe there will be surprises...

This time, there was no sound in the cabin.

"It's all gone."

Aces was still standing there staring at the cabin, feeling the energy fluctuations disappear inside. He murmured to himself, listing the methods he had just decided one by one in his mind, with calculation and haze in his eyes.

"What's the cost? Try it first. If it really doesn't work, then change it. It's just the last method... whether you can use it or not..."

As the sound disappeared, his figure disappeared under the tree like Merlin and the others.

When Asseth returned to the cellar, he behaved the same as before, except that he spent more time in the pure white space studying Voldemort and the soul.

He studied the two Voldemorts over and over again, ignoring the express prohibitions of the wizarding world, and conducted in-depth research on the soul to explore the essence of the soul.

At the end of the study, the two Horcruxes Voldemort almost lost his desire to survive.

I just hope that Asseth will give them a happy life. After all, not every soul can accept the pain of being analyzed and spied on.

In addition to studying soul distortions in the pure white space, Artes spent one day staying next to Snape to start his potion research.

Time passes quickly in the cellar life of just two people, and the Christmas vacation will be over soon.

On the last day of the Christmas holiday, Ace received three unexpected guests.

"You mean you want to learn the Patronus Charm?"

Asses looked at the trio of saviors who blocked him at the entrance of the auditorium, feeling a little headache.

"The Patronus Charm should be part of your Defense Against the Dark Arts class. If you want to learn it, go find your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."

At this point, Artes thought that they would be able to disappear, but compared to Lupin, Harry and Hermione obviously believed more in Artest, who had saved Harry several times and had driven away the Dementors twice.

"Professor Cavendish, we promise we won't take up too much of your time." Hermione seemed to have guessed why Artes rejected them and quickly assured her.

At this time, a platinum-blond head passed by and immediately came over after hearing Hermione's words.

"What are you talking about? What time are you taking up?"

Draco looked at Harry and the three of them warily, fearing that they might abduct Artes without him knowing.

Aces looked at Draco who was joining in the fun and always felt a bad feeling.

"That's right, we want to learn the Patronus Charm from Professor Cavendish, because Professor Cavendish's Patronus Charm is too powerful."

Hermione directly suppressed Harry who wanted to speak and explained to Draco.
