HP trickle down

Severus was bottling the potion when Stephanie appeared.Estimated the dosage of Voldemort's medicine, brewed a new batch of potion.For some reason, Severus always felt that his heartbeat was a little chaotic, as if something was going to happen.

"Severus, are you looking for me?" Stephanie always felt that Severus was a little irritable now, so she asked a little cautiously.She knew that the good deeds she did today would be known by Severus, but she didn't expect Severus to find him so quickly.

Severus didn't let his emotions be affected by his premonition that he didn't know whether it was correct, and he still treated Stephanie with a strict attitude. Bert always doted on Stephanie, and sometimes he also helped others, so now Stephanie didn't take Bert's decision is taken seriously: "You know what you have done today. Should I write a special book for Miss Alfred's bravery? It is best to award you a trophy to commemorate Your great achievements?"

"No, Severus, I didn't do anything great." Stephanie laughed dryly, whining in her heart, and now that Severus was starting to sting the venom, it meant he was really angry.And it's not just about the fight today, but also about rushing back to England, the rhythm of being accounted for... Stephanie just hoped that she wouldn't die too badly, Severus is really the only person who can control her now up.

Severus glared at Stephanie coldly, grabbed Stephanie's arm, and led her to sit on the sofa: "Oh, as great as a lion, brave, bright and correct Miss Stephanie Alfred, everything you do Shouldn’t everything be right? Shouldn’t everything you do be as great and righteous as holy war? How can you be worthy of your bravery when you say that?”

"I was wrong, Severus! I shouldn't be disobedient and come back here, I shouldn't have a fight, but you know Matilda is my most important friend, she was insulted inexplicably , this is what makes me most angry, and... I don't make mistakes, so you have no reason to talk to me alone?" Stephanie knew that her avoidance of questions would only make Severus more angry, so she apologized neatly , admit your mistakes, and explain your reasons.

Severus narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his chin, looked down at Stephanie, and said in a low voice, "No, no, no, how can Miss Stephanie Alfred be wrong, you are the sister of the elf duke , is also a nobleman."

"I really know I'm wrong, Severus, but do you understand? I live alone in Germany, I live alone in Durmstrang...it's just me...it's not easy for you to protect me, I also know that you're in danger and there's no time for him to keep me safe, and I understand that too. But Severus, I don't want to be a cripple... I'm a proud and loyal Alfred ’” Stephanie grabbed Severus’s sleeve aggrievedly, with tears in her eyes, she knew that Severus was difficult to deal with.

Her reasons were not even considered reasons in front of Severus, but she really couldn't bear it anymore.Just in time for this opportunity, how could Stephanie miss it?And Gellert Grindelwald leads the team, Alberez is also a powerful character, and Stephanie also has enough self-protection ability, she is confident that she will not have any accidents.

Severus looked at Stephanie's tearful grievance, frowned and said: "You are still like this, the fundamental question is not whether you have the strength to protect yourself here, but do you know who I am now? position?"

Stephanie's eyes widened with a sudden realization—Severus is now an undercover agent, a Death Eater who hates Alfred, and wants to be Voldemort's loyal dog—Severus will shoot her, so The danger comes from your own side!

Seeing that Stephanie understood now, Severus reached out and gave Stephanie a bottle of potion and said, "This potion is called Death's Gauze, and if you take a drop every day, you will find that you are getting more and more depressed, lethargic, and less focused. Unable to concentrate, the sleep time will be prolonged every day, until the long dream does not wake up. But this is just a modified version, used as a suspended animation."

"I see, Severus." Stephanie reached out to take the potion, and she had to cooperate with Severus.If Severus was exposed, Severus was the real danger.Stephanie, who was confident that there would be no problems, realized that she already had a lot of problems when she came here, and she still had to cause so much trouble for Severus.

Severus rubbed Stephanie's head lightly, knowing that she was now in a mood of self-denial: "Stephanie, you are... a smart girl with a beautiful appearance and a good family background, It's good that you sincerely care about your family and friends..." Severus was really not skilled in the business of comforting people, but he bit the bullet and had to go on, who told this to be Where's Stephanie?

"When thinking about problems, it's normal to have problems due to poor thinking. You just need to live happily." This is also Burt's wish. He hopes that Stephanie will live happily.

Stephanie threw herself into Severus' arms, her eyes were dry, her fingers clenched the bottle of potion.Severus' embrace was warm and soft, with a hint of bitter potion smell, which was very different from Burt's smell, and it didn't look like Burt at all, but this person was right One of her best.It's so awkward and cute to do something that he doesn't know how to do, but still force himself to do it.

Not knowing what Stephanie was thinking now, Severus endured the uncomfortable feeling of being hugged, and gently wrapped Stephanie in his arms, as if he had done it for Burt.

After Regulus told Severus all these things he knew, he was relieved. Voldemort made Horcruxes in order to achieve the goal of eternal life.

Regulus was not very clear about the word Horcrux, but he knew that splitting the soul was something a wizard should never do.The soul is an existence that a person must never give up or degenerate, no matter how confident and powerful he is.

Although the power of magic can reflect the strength of the wizard's soul on the one hand, it does not mean that they can split their soul.The surefire ways Regulus knew of becoming immortal were all very evil.

One is the Sorcerer's Stone. In order to make the Sorcerer's Stone, the master alchemist Nick Flamel collected the souls of dead soldiers on the battlefield and refined the Sorcerer's Stone to make himself immortal, but in fact he is already a monster, not human at all. .

The second is the legendary potion of immortality, but this kind of potion is only in the legend, and no one knows whether it is true or not.Regulus guessed that Severus should know a little, since Severus was a Prince after all.

The third is Avalon once opened by King Arthur, the legendary land of immortality, where one can obtain real eternal life.

Finally, there are the Three Hallows of Death. As long as you are a child in the wizarding world, anyone who has read that fairy tale knows that as long as you have these three things, you can escape from Death.

The saint mark of the former Gellert Grindelwald was the mark of the Three Deathly Hallows, but his purpose at that time should be different from that of Voldemort now.

Horcruxes split their own souls to achieve the purpose of eternal life. This kind of thing sounds very unreliable, and it should be very evil black magic.The Horcrux and the Sorcerer's Stone should be the same thing, a kind of forbidden art.

Voldemort could know that this kind of thing should not be through normal channels, but since when did Voldemort know?If he knew it when he was young, where did he get it from?

If it was known when the Death Eaters were founded, who would contribute to him?But Regulus didn't think that was the case. Voldemort obviously put forward this slogan of "defeating death" in the early days, when the predecessors of the Death Eaters were only a small group.

This means that Voldemort knew about Horcruxes earlier, but his temperament has changed drastically in recent years, so is this because he has done a lot of experiments on Horcruxes recently?

It is said that Voldemort has regained his sanity now, but Regulus is more aware of the great crisis in this situation. Severus is obviously not so kind as to want to cure Voldemort, and Regulus I have a hunch that Voldemort will continue to make Horcruxes after he gets better, maybe the more the better, maybe he will stop when the number is satisfactory to Voldemort.

How can an inhuman monster with an incomplete soul really trust such a leader?The Death Eaters will perish under the leadership of Voldemort, and now Voldemort is paying less and less attention to the Death Eaters, only thinking that they are no different from nobles and slaves.

After killing all the muggles, hempseeds, and half-bloods, there were only pure blood left... Regulus couldn't help but feel terrible—how many pure blood wizards are there?Who can rule whom when all these people are dead?Only Voldemort stands tall...

Is such a world really what the nobles want?

Regulus swallowed hard, and finally understood why Bert's disdain for Voldemort came from. After he really figured it out, he realized how ignorant he was who worshiped these theories before.

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Regulus had already summoned Kreacher and told Kreacher what he said about Severus. Kreacher had been cautious and nervous since he was almost killed by Voldemort the last time. , but Regulus still treated Kreacher patiently - it was all his fault, and Kreacher was loyal enough to him, he trusted Kreacher.

Severus would do something to this Horcrux hidden by Voldemort, but Regulus felt that he had an obligation to participate in this matter.

What if something happened to Severus?Regulus didn't want Severus to deal with these things alone, Slytherin didn't need a lone hero, they needed to plan before acting.

Although he knew that if Severus really made up his mind to do it, he would be fully prepared for his plan to work, but only Severus would do it alone, Regulus felt uneasy.He had wanted to check it out himself, but now it was Severus.

Severus was already walking on a tightrope, and if he was not careful, he would be in danger of being exposed. Regulus couldn't let Severus take the risk alone.

Lucius said that he was like a reckless lion occasionally, and Regulus did know that he had such a bit of a lion in him, but sometimes it is impossible for a person to be calm all the time.

Young and frivolous sometimes, this is something Regulus decided after careful consideration, and it is not a decision made lightly.

Regulus also didn't know about Stephanie's identity, and Stephanie's surname was Alfred, and she definitely had something to do with Bert, so Severus wouldn't do anything to this little girl, or really hate this girl .

Regulus still didn't understand Severus' behavior of wanting to see Stephanie.
