Atonement of HP

Here Lucius was still guessing in his heart that the soul that rushed out there first had already met Snape.

"Irene's ring, you are..." Old Prince paused in his soul, looking at the signature black hair and black smoke of the visitor.

"Severus Snape." Snape performed a noble etiquette very calmly. From his mother's diary, Snape knew that this venerable old man still loved his mother very much, but this generation The pressure on Prince's heir was so great that his mother chose to leave in order to resist the marriage.

If you want to say what Snape's biggest gain from modifying the defense for Spider's End again, I am afraid it is a diary of Irene.

If it hadn't been for the magic circle that re-modified the house to trigger a protective spell in the yard, Snape would not have discovered that Irene had hidden a small box behind Tobias' back.

Snape didn't know why Irene hid it and when it was hidden. He had never seen this box in his last life, and he was sure that there was no such thing in Spider's End.So when Snape found this box, he felt a little complicated. On the one hand, it was definitely a solid proof that this space was not his time and space; His mother's "inheritance" made him feel all kinds of feelings in his heart.

Dragging the box back to Malfoy's house, Snape and Lucius sorted out everything inside.A large number of manuscripts, diaries and notes filled it, and Lucius thoughtfully left after finding almost all of them. His partner needed some privacy.

Snape got a lot of new and wonderful ideas from Irene's manuscripts and experimental notes. Should it be said that the Prince's family is worthy of the Prince's family?Even though Snape had never seen Irene playing with potions in his memory, what was shown in Irene's notes was definitely at the level of a quasi-potion master.

Apart from these, what Snape gained the most was the information about Prince Manor.As the heir of Prince's family, Irene has a lot of affection for the manor where she grew up. She not only recorded in detail how the manor was opened, but also mentioned the secret room of Prince's house and a "big secret" inside.Although Irene was a little vague, it was enough for Snape to make some reasonable guesses.

What could be the biggest secret of an ancient pure-blood noble family?Lineage, heritage, family.This guess was confirmed when I found that I couldn't see a portrait when I first entered Prince's house.

So Snape deliberately lured the house-elf into saying what he wanted Voldmort to hear, trying to make him think that the Princes were penniless now.By the way, according to Lucius' request, he also acted as if the relationship was hindered. Slytherin with gaps is more reassuring than soul mates who live and die together.

Sure enough, the secret room of Prince's house really hides the "big secret", which is aimed at the ghost of old Prince.

Hogwarts is also haunted by ghosts. Snape also became a soul and wandered around for a period of time after his death in the last life, so he is no stranger to them.Generally speaking, there are two types of ghosts. One is because they are afraid of death. Before they die, they mark a small part of their souls in a place where the magic magnetic field is very strong, such as Hogwarts. When they died, the original small part of souls were nourished and became ghosts, and such ghosts could never leave; die.Then according to the contract, they can choose to become ghosts, but in the same way, their ghosts cannot leave the magic items related to them at the beginning.

This is also why Snape's first reaction to becoming a ghost after death was to be calculated. He was never afraid of death, let alone had any contract, but it was very strange that he became a ghost.What's even more strange is that his ghost is not restricted by Hogwarts and can leave freely.

Snape's puzzling question at the beginning seemed to be answered when he entered the secret room of Prince Manor today. Didn't he see that there were a few ghosts besides those who came out to greet him?The Prince family is a Slytherin family, and all the heads of the past generations are excellent potion masters. As a potion master, rigor and sobriety are definitely the two foundations.Therefore, fear of death or something is no longer considered.

"Severus Snape Prince." The ghost that greeted Lucius just now spoke. After he spoke, the ghost of Old Prince stood behind with a respectful face. Obviously, he was in it. It's the boss. "Your mother is Irene, Irene Prince?"

"Yes, you..." Snape stood beside Lucius, the presence of his partner made his mind clearer.

"Call me Grandpa Kool, here are all your elders, I am the 23rd Patriarch of the Prince family, over there is the 24th Seid Prince, and the 25th Hall Prince, The 26th is Verdi, Prince, and the last one is your grandfather, the previous head of the Prince family."

Snape saluted one by one according to his introduction, and the ghosts also politely returned the salute. After that, Snape's grandfather asked anxiously: "Severus, oh, you don't mind if I call you that?" After getting the latter's indifferent nod, he went on to say, "Is your mother okay?"

"Mother has been dead for a long time." Snape said these words calmly.

"Oh, Irene, my Irene." Old Prince's ghost murmured to himself, but he had already vaguely known the answer when he asked the question.

"Severus, since you have opened the manor, you are the 18th head of the Prince family recognized by us. From then on, all the property of the Prince family will be inherited by you. Now, a drop of blood to the family on the tapestry."

"Yes, Grandpa Kool." Snape exchanged glances with Lucius. Before they could get what they wanted, inheritance was a must, so he went straight to the tapestry on the other wall of the Chamber of Secrets, and put His own blood dripped on the Prince family crest next to it.

Ash that says Irene Snape

The black name suddenly became brighter, and a silver line protruded from the bottom of the name, and then the full name in Snape's soul was outlined - Severus Snape Prince Malfoy.There was nothing next to Irene's name, but Snape's name stretched out with a silver line, and then Lucius Malfoy appeared on the tapestry, but this name was slightly smaller than other Prince's names. , it looks like it belongs to a partner.

The ghosts were not at all surprised by this result. They were always extremely sensitive to matters related to the soul, which originated from their own souls, so Kur could immediately call Lucius "Prince's master's companion."

"Then, Severus, Lucius, I know you have some questions, Edwin, I leave it to you." Kurt called the old Prince neatly, and then followed the other house heads Went to a room next to it.

"Severus, Lucius." After looking at Snape for a while, the old Prince's eyes finally softened, and he took them aside, "No matter what, you are now Prince The owner of the Si family is now, and Irene's things will still be inherited after all."

"Grandpa." Snape saluted obediently because of the bitterness in the old man's tone and the guilt in his mother's notes.

"Okay, okay." Even the ghost could clearly feel the joy of the old Prince, and when he turned to Lucius, his face changed: "Lucius Malfoy, I'm sorry if you did something, Sev Les' matter, then, the Prince's family is not easy to mess with, don't think that Severus is the only one in the master's family now."

"Yes, Grandpa, I will take good care of my soul mate." Lucius also put away his aristocratic demeanor and saluted like a real junior. He knew the emotion from his partner's memory And care is scant, and the Princes may be able to give Seaver some affection from loved ones.

"Lucius..." Snape blushed. I don't know if it was because of Lucius' "Grandpa" or because of Old Prince's undisguised protection. Lucius took Snape very seriously. I understand that because of the lack of family, friendship, love and other emotions, Snape would cherish even a little bit of what he got.

"Soul mate!" Old Prince was obviously also surprised. As ghosts, they obviously knew something about soul mates, but they were immediately happy. Their grandson found a soul mate, which meant that Lucius would never betray.And Malfoy and the Prince family will also be closely connected in this way. The old Prince was once the head of the family, and it is already instinctive to seek greater benefits for the family without sacrificing the interests of his own children.

"Yes, I'm Sev's soul mate. In fact, that's why we are anxious to inherit the Prince family." Lucius continued in place of Snape. His Sif was not good at dealing with such situations. "Because my bloodline has awakened, so Sev's bloodline has also awakened..." Before Lucius could finish speaking, he was taken aback by the old Prince, who had been so graceful from the very beginning. The Slytherin-style ghost suddenly seemed to have turned into a Gryffindor, and almost jumped at Snape, completely ignoring the shudder that his own hand passed through the latter's body.

"Merlin! The awakening of the bloodline, it turned out to be the awakening of the bloodline!" Old Prince's ghost trembled with excitement, "Kool, Kool, come quickly, Severus' bloodline has awakened!" He ignored the noble manner called out.

All of a sudden, several ghosts who were still in the next door scrambled around Snape, all of them were observing non-stop, and quickly put forward one inference after another, which was immediately overturned by others or by himself. .Anyone who can be regarded as a master in a certain field always has some research addiction. Now their condition is a collective research addiction attack. Snape froze in place, feeling like a potion material being observed in 360 degrees .

"Oh, Mr. Princes," Lucius also impolitely walked through a ghost and brought out his partner, "maybe you would like to explain, given... your strange situation." Maybe the other party His actions stepped on the Veela's nerve of "protecting a partner", and what Lucius said was almost a blatant temptation.

The old Prince glanced at Kur as if begging, and the latter restrained his emotions before slowly speaking: "Prince's family has the blood of dark elves, and it is precisely because of this that we have found a new way in potions. You know, potions above level three can touch the souls of wizards, and dark elves are better at soul magic." Following his explanation, Snape nodded in agreement, although he did not agree He knew about the dark elves too well, but he still knew about potions above level three.

"The blood of the dark elves brings us five senses that are far more sensitive than ordinary wizards. At the same time, it also makes our souls a little different." Kur paused, obviously hesitant, and the old Prince immediately answered: "Lucius and Severus concluded a soul mate contract."

"Soul mate?" Kur was surprised, but undeniably relaxed: "Our souls are also far stronger than ordinary wizards. After death, the portraits can't bear the power of our souls. What do you want to leave behind? We can only rely on the magic circle in this secret room. But as time goes by, the power of the soul will eventually dissipate, and we will no longer exist by then."

Lucius spoke secretly as he listened, thinking of the aftermath of the blood of magical creatures mixed in in the library of Malfoy's house: "So, the ancestors of the Prince family didn't find a solution?" Regarding Kool's last statement about the soul , Lucius said that there is no pressure. As a soul mate, Sev and his soul will eventually merge, and he doesn't need to worry at all.

"Why not?" Kuer sighed heavily, "It's just that such a condition is too difficult to achieve, and in the end, the ancestors can only try to prolong the existence of the soul as much as possible."

"What can I do?" Snape said abruptly, thinking about their previous performance, Snape didn't mind helping his relatives.

"Sev..." Lucius was a little anxious. In fact, he had already begun to regret in his heart. Why did he have to enter the Prince Manor? The Prince family has not found a way for thousands of years. Do it, not to mention the price Sev might pay for it.If you want to get something, you have to pay first. The principle of equivalent exchange is recognized by the wizarding world.

"You just need to complete the awakening of your bloodline." Kuro looked at Lucius' performance and nodded secretly. Severus is the head of his Prince family, so naturally he would not hurt him.After all, family inheritance is more important.

"It's just bloodline awakening?" Snape frowned, why has no one done such a simple thing for thousands of years.

"Severus, the strength of the blood of the dark elves makes us very talented in potions and black magic, but it also makes it extremely difficult to fully awaken the blood." Seeing his grandson's question, the old Prince stepped forward explain.

"You haven't finished your awakening yet, right?" Kool continued. Their observation just now was not just a research obsession: "Your body is rejecting the part of blood from Muggles. If you don't do it properly, your body may I can't stand the strength of the soul." Kull didn't say the result later, but Lucius and Snape already understood.

"Whatever is needed for the awakening of the bloodline, I will prepare." Lucius quickly realized that his hand holding the snake stick had veins, and it was hard for him to come to this point with Sif. Even Merlin himself would not let him He lets go.

"Relax, Lucius." Snape felt the uneasiness in his partner's soul for the first time, and he rarely put his hand on Lucius, "The ancestors of the Prince family must have been prepared. "Lucius was concerned, but Snape knew how powerful a family of potions masters could erupt.

"Yes." Kool glanced at Severus appreciatively, keeping calm at all times, even if his own life was at stake, Snape was almost perfect except for half Muggle blood. "Prince's family has prepared a potion for purifying bloodlines for this day. Severus should just drink it. It is best to complete the bloodline awakening in this room afterwards. On the one hand, the powerful magic power produced by the bloodline awakening will make Prince The manor suffered a loss. On the other hand," Kuhl thought for a while, and said directly, Severus' partner is not easy to get along with, and instead of making them suspicious of each other, it is better to be honest with each other from the beginning: "A complete After the dark elves wake up, they will open the teleportation array leading to the home of the elves, we will leave with the power of our blood, and we can find a way to keep our souls there, this is the way the Prince family came up with."

"You all just leave?" Lucius frowned. No matter what the reason was, it was a fact that Sif took over the Prince's family. He needed an experienced "person" to stay and help him familiarize himself with and control the entire Prince's family.

"Kur, I was the last to become a ghost. I can exist here for the longest time. I'll stay first." Old Prince volunteered, no matter in terms of objective facts or subjective wishes, it was a great choice for him to stay. best result.

"How often can the teleportation array be opened?" Snape was more concerned about his grandfather's survival.

"Once you become a dark elf, you will know that it is your ethnic group." Kur was also very helpless about this.

"Then, prepare for the bloodline awakening in three days." Snape made a decision without looking at Lucius.

"We can't go out, just come in and find us if you have something to do." Kuer finally ordered.

"All the potions are in another room," the old Prince pointed to a small room. "The manor has never stored potions. Severus, complete the awakening of the bloodline first, and we will talk about the rest later." ’” Like Snape, Prince Sr. was more concerned about his grandson’s health.

"Oh, you don't have to worry about this at all." Lucius drew his voice, "Please forgive us, I still have some questions that I need to 'communicate' with my partner alone!"
