HP trickle down

Severus sat across from Dumbledore, and the wise old man handed him a cup of honey tea.

"Mr. Snape, this matter we are talking about must not be known by a third person, so I will keep it a secret for you." Dumbledore's gentle eyes now became very serious.

Severus nodded noncommittally and said, "I will keep this matter a secret. I will give Lupine's Wolfsbane potion to you every month."

"I'm curious, how did you know that Lupine was a werewolf, and why you didn't resist so much and didn't reveal his identity." That's what Dumbledore wanted to know the most.After all, Severus was not on good terms with the trio, and he was a Slytherin.

Severus looked at Dumbledore's serious eyes, took a sip of tea and said, "I have some talent in potions, and I happen to be good at Defense Against the Dark Arts courses. Mr. Lupine's werewolf features, I thought it was obvious .” He was not afraid that Dumbledore would put him on guard, it was just a quid pro quo.

"I thought you had a cold relationship with Mr. Lupine." Dumbledore picked a neutral word to describe the relationship between Severus and Lupine.

Severus sneered, and said bluntly: "I'm afraid it's not indifference, I don't have the slightest affection for this person. And Wolf's Poison is not free."

"Of course, what price do you need Remus to pay?" Dumbledore knew that Severus was going to make a deal with him, and he could use Lupine as a breakthrough. He could only say that Severus was a smart man, and Severus Adams is very observant.

At the very least, Dumbledore knew how good Lupine was. As long as Lupine solved his worries about being a werewolf, he would definitely be an excellent member of the Order of the Phoenix.So Dumbledore saw hope and would not let the opportunity slip away from his hands.However, he still needed to test Severus' purpose and bottom line.

Knowing that Dumbledore was testing him now, Severus said indifferently: "Your Excellency the Headmaster is a smart man, and I can take out the wolfsbane potion, which means that I also have the capital to trade with you, right?"

"Yes." Dumbledore looked at Severus, still feeling very unbelievable, this child can brew such a difficult potion now, his future will definitely be brighter.

"Loverbane potion is not a great work for me. As long as you provide me with satisfactory conditions, I can also produce other high-quality potions, even the fact that it cannot be recovered after overcoming the black magic in the body. Potion It can also be recovered." Severus took out two bottles of potion, one bottle was Wolfsbane potion, and the other bottle looked like a milky white potion, which was packed in a glass bottle and looked like milk. But very beautiful.

Only then did Dumbledore feel a little unbelievable, and said: "No one can overcome the irreversible nature of black magic damage for so many years. Now you say you can do it?"

"I can experiment for you." Severus didn't look timid.

Severus' self-confidence also made Dumbledore feel that there was no need to doubt the man in front of him, but the news he provided was so shocking.A problem that has plagued the wizarding world for so many years, how can this kid solve such a problem?But Severus said so swearingly, but Dumbledore couldn't help but not believe it.

"Then, prove it to me." Dumbledore took off his glasses, wiped them and put them back on.

Instead, Severus smiled lightly, took back the milky white bottle and said, "This is a very precious potion, come to me when you have such a patient. You should understand the importance of Felicia in war I understand, and I happen to have a few bottles of the best quality in my possession."

Dumbledore no longer doubted the efficacy of the medicine because of Severus' reaction, but he was even more curious about what Severus' purpose was: "What you get, you have to give, so, Mr. Snape, State your terms."

"My condition is nothing extraordinary, but an investment. Voldemort is going to attack me. I am the current head of Prince." Severus narrowed the amount of information.

Dumbledore looked at Severus with some surprise on his face.With just this one sentence, Dumbledore knew exactly what Severus' purpose was.If neutrals want to be truly neutral, there is a prerequisite that their own strength is strong enough.After Alfred left, it was obvious that Severus had no such support, and now Voldemort happened to discover Severus' identity.

Dumbledore should have put forward excessive conditions at this time, but in fact, he couldn't.Because at this time, once the bullying conditions were put forward, it would be easy to arouse Severus' rebellious psychology, and he would really vote for Voldemort's camp.And neither he nor Voldemort needed the Potions Master very much.Dumbledore couldn't gamble, Severus was willing to tell the truth at this time, and on the other hand he was also saying that he trusted him.

Taking advantage of others' dangers can indeed take advantage, but this kind of advantage also depends on whether you can afford the price.As it happens, Severus' stuff is not something he can risk.

"How can I trust you?" Dumbledore covered the cup with his hand, his blue eyes were very bright behind the lens.

Severus took out a contract, put it in front of Dumbledore, and said, "This is the alliance treaty of the Alfred family. If there is no problem, the headmaster can sign his name."

Dumbledore frowned, and his hands fell on the contract. The conditions on it were that the fact that Severus was helping them as a master of potions should not be exposed in any way, but his safety must be protected during and after the battle, and After the war, Severus had to prove his innocence whenever there was a stain on him.And the same, Severus will provide the Order of the Phoenix with potions of the same value.

In the contract, no one can disclose the transaction content to anyone in any way, otherwise the body and spirit will be destroyed, which is a very severe punishment.And in the place of the signer, Severus' signature was obvious.

Dumbledore determined that there was nothing wrong with this contract, and the producer of this contract was Burt Alfred, which was a powerful alliance contract from Alfred's family.Explains the firmness of Severus.The danger of Voldemort made Severus vigilant, and he was very disgusted with the threat from Voldemort.

After signing their names, the contract instantly turned into a light spot and merged into the bodies of the two people. At the same time, the role of the contract in the soul made them completely aware that they had no possibility of violating the contract.

The Dark Mark was hot and painful for a moment. Although Lucius didn't feel it so obviously, he knew that Voldemort was calling them now, and his anger continued unabated.

Abraxas clutched his wrist, the above reaction was gone at all.When he woke up, he found that the Dark Mark on his hand had disappeared.

Of course he understood what it meant to disappear, so he could really disappear in front of Voldemort.Voldemort had lost his hold on him, and now his own son fell into Voldemort's hands as Voldemort's dog.

From the perspective of Abraxas, Lucius may not be very loyal to Voldemort, and who is Lucius' current way out? Although Abraxas doesn't know, he can feel that Lucius is determined. The goal.

Unlike him, when he found out that Voldemort's situation was wrong, he was full of panic.

After every Death Eater saluted Voldemort, they all crouched at Voldemort's feet like quails.

And the monster that was punished by Voldemort to be integrated into the floor has disappeared now, and lost its qualification as a plaything. It is Voldemort's best to reward him with a happy death.

"I called you here to ask what you did while I was away. Bella, you start first." Voldemort sat on the top seat, looking down at Bellatrix at the lower left.

"According to the list given by the lord before, my subordinates went to clean up a group of disobedient nobles. Now many people have announced that they will stand in our camp..." Bellatri was the first to point out by Voldemort. Max didn't feel that he was in danger, instead he stood up happily and told about his great achievements.

Voldemort was not very interested in Bellatrix's deeds, but at least Bellatrix did not waste his time, so after Voldemort slightly expressed his concern for his subordinates, he pointed the tip of his wand at Orion and West. Gnass.

Orion was taken aback, and after reluctantly saying something about his suppression of the moxa, Signus said a lot of similar things.

"Signus, among your daughters, Andromeda..." Voldemort's scarlet eyes swept over Signus, causing Signus to freeze.

"Mylord, she is no longer a child of the Black family, and we have removed her." Signus quickly knelt down. Although Orion was unwilling, he knelt down anyway. This person was his younger brother. , he was unlucky, and in fact the Blacks were not much better off.

Lucius looked sideways at Orion and Signus who were kneeling, but he couldn't go up to intercede, after all, Voldemort was going crazy now.Lucius didn't want to do things that would cause trouble.

Voldemort stepped down from his seat, and the magic pressure was released in an instant. Under the huge pressure, most of the people present could hardly breathe, and he went straight to the kneeling Orion and Signus.

Bellatrix looked at Voldemort's movements and wanted to move, but was pinned in place by Voldemort's horrifying eyes and dared not move again.

"Signus, Orion, when was the last time you mentioned this girl? How did you guarantee it?" Voldemort looked at the person kneeling at his feet, and there was no emotion in his scarlet eyes.

Everyone's throats seemed to be choked, and it was almost impossible to breathe.Voldemort's anger, no one can bear.

"Mylord, it's because the subordinate has no way to teach the daughter, so the lord has to worry about it." Signus gritted his teeth, and the voice flowed out from between his teeth. After he finished speaking, he seemed to be exhausted, but he couldn't take a deep breath.

Voldemort gave a short laugh, and said, "There is no way to teach a daughter? Signus, is this a problem of education? A pure-blood witch, seduced by a bitch, abandoned all her glory just to be with a bitch. Kind of, is this just an education issue?"

"All pure-bloods abandon their honor and betray their faith just like your daughter. You're just talking about education? Orion, your son Sirius..." Voldemort kicked Signus.

Signus rolled around on the ground, but after he stabilized, he still only dared to kneel down.

Orion was startled, and hurriedly said: "Sirius obeys the honor of the Death Eaters, and will not forget the belief of pure blood."

"Hey, is it? Andromeda Black's betrayal, now you are perfunctory and trying to deceive me like this, you don't take me seriously anymore?!" As soon as Voldemort finished speaking, all the Death Eaters They knelt down one after another, not daring to speak again.

"Betrayal is unforgivable." Voldemort looked at the kneeling crowd, and slowly walked up to his throne with them behind his back. Just when they thought Voldemort didn't care about anything, the two Cruciatus had already fallen on Sig Nas and Orion.

The shrill screams filled the entire empty hall in an instant.
