HP: Embrace the Darkness

Not hearing the preaching voice lingering in her ears, Susanna slept a little uneasily. She was afraid that Joel would hold back some big tricks again, so she quietly opened her eyes and took a look.

"Uncle Joel!"

"Why are you making so much noise? Don't you want to sleep?"

Joel stood still on the stairs, looking dissatisfied at Susanna who was snoring.

"What are you going to do?"

"Isn't this obvious? I'm going to see if Master Ass is awake."

Oh, let's see if Asseth wakes up, then it'll be fine.

Susanna lay back down with relief, and the next second she bounced up like her butt was on fire.

Look at Aces!

Aces?

Merlin knew if this guy ever came back.

"Uncle Joel!"

After being stopped one after another, Joel was already angry with Susanna, but now he was even more angry.

"If anything happens, tell me!"

Susanna's mind was racing, making excuses, excuses, come up with excuses quickly.

"you're right!"

?

A question mark slowly popped up in Joel's head, and he didn't know what the unlucky kid was thinking about.

"Since I can't sleep, then neither can Ass."

? ?

Joel thought he heard wrongly, but Susanna had already turned over and jumped up, flying past him like a gust of wind, and ran quickly to the second floor.

"Wait! What are you doing? Stop it."

Joel reacted and strode after him.

"Suzanne, don't wake up Master Asseth, he can finally take a rest."

"No, why should I get up? He can sleep, so I'll pick him up now."

Susanna is young and strong, and has practiced some Eastern physical skills. She can run much faster than Joel, who is over 60 years old.

Joel chased her for a long time, but could only watch her disappear.

This unlucky kid!

Joel was almost mad at Susanna's nonsense. He pulled out his wand and chased after her, cursing.

Susanna on the other side almost ran to the door of Asseth, then she slowed down and waited for Joel to catch up.

Finally, Joel caught up with Susanna and saw that she had not gone in yet. The old housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you going to piss me off to death? Look at what you look like. If you can't sleep, you won't let me—"

"Grandpa Joel? Cousin? Are you here?"

Before Joel could finish his reprimand, he was interrupted by "Ass" who opened the door, and his face immediately changed into a kind and serious expression.

"Master Asseth, you're awake. It looks like you slept well last night?"

"of course."

"Athes" nodded slowly.

Unlike Joel's kindness, Susanna only felt creepy.

In her perception, the thing in front of her that looked like her nephew was not a human being at all.

"Ah...Asais, you——"

"Ass" slowly turned his head to look at Susanna, opening the corners of his mouth to reveal a standard smile.

"Good morning, cousin."

"Ah, okay, okay."

Susanna felt as if she had seen a ghost. She thought last night that Asseth just used a magic spell to pretend that he was still there, but she didn't expect that he would come up with such a thing.

"Master Asseth, since you're up, should I ask the house elf to serve breakfast?"

"No, I'll stay in the room to eat. I have something to do with Nina. You can leave first."

Nina felt the call of "Asais" and suddenly appeared among the three of them, staring at "Asais" with bright eyes.

"Master Asseth, do you have anything to do with me?"

leave!

Susanna only heard this word in her ears, and even the appearance of Nina failed to attract her attention, and she immediately grabbed Joel tightly.

"Okay, be good - Asseth, get busy, we're leaving now."

After saying that, without waiting for Joel to speak, she sprinted 100 meters and forcibly took Joel away from the scene.

"Asais" looked at the direction they were leaving and blinked stiffly: "My cousin noticed it. It seems she needs to change it."

"Master, what are you talking about? Nina didn't hear clearly." Nina whispered.

"Aces" turned his head and smiled at Nina, "Come in with me." With that, he turned and walked into the bedroom.

Nina followed without knowing why.

"Nina, don't tell anyone else what I'm going to tell you next."

Nina nodded solemnly and braced herself to wait for Asseth's next words.

"Later, follow the custom of me and the professor, and send two breakfasts to No. 19, Spider End Lane, Cokeworth Town. By the way, take my current body with you. I'll wait for you there. If Grandpa Joel asks, Just say I have something to do and go out."

Nina didn't quite understand what Ases said, but she still nodded and agreed.

Then she watched helplessly as "Asais" in front of her began to glow and shrink, turning into a wooden man and falling to the ground.

"Master Asseth!"

Nina screamed, the orderly house elf feeling at a loss for the first time.

Fortunately, she still remembered what Ases said, and hurriedly picked up the wooden man carefully, put it on the bed and covered it with a quilt, and then went to prepare breakfast.

Spider End Alley.

Asseth opened his eyes and raised his hand to rub the bridge of his nose to relieve the throbbing pain in his head.

The connection between him and the wooden man was originally made temporarily, and since they were so far apart, it was his limit to be able to hold on for so long.

"When will breakfast come?"

The potion master who was still huddled under the quilt asked lazily, planning to decide his wake-up time today based on the arrival time of breakfast.

Aces couldn't help but smile, "Twenty minutes at most, we can lie down for a while."

Snape scoffed: "What us?"

Thinking of the potion room that had not been cleaned up in the past few days, he began to legitimately squeeze the labor force that had fallen into the trap.

"Mr. Asseth, I think it's time for you to get up. As your accommodation fee last night, the sanitation staff in the potion room downstairs are waiting for you."

There was no sound from Aces, and Snape thought he was unwilling. Just as he was about to taunt him, he heard a slightly joyful yet deliberately suppressed voice coming from beside him.

"So what Sev is saying is that I can stay as long as I keep paying for the accommodation?"

This suggestion is somewhat tempting.

The Potions Master struggled fiercely between agreeing and refusing, but in the end his dislike of trouble prevailed.

It's the same in the cellar anyway...and with Asseth as his helper, he won't lose.

Snape soon convinced himself.

"Theoretically... yes."

Asseth asked tentatively: "Then I'll go?"

Snape: "Yeah."

Aces tested again: "Did I really go?"

Snape took a deep breath and said, "Yeah."

Suddenly remembering that he still didn't know where the potion room was, Asseth asked again: "I——"

At this moment, Snape couldn't bear it anymore and shouted angrily: "Are you going or not?"

"Go, but I don't know where the potion room is?"

Seeing the innocence on Asseth's face, Snape picked up a pillow and threw it at him, gritting his teeth: "I really hope your eyes can give your brain some wise instructions, now, get out of here! "

Seeing that he was about to make someone anxious, Asseth immediately got out of bed, tied up his nightgown and walked out the door.
