war and peace

Lucius Malfoy came back to his senses, they were almost at the entrance of Hogsmeade village.If you wait any longer, that person will go back to Hogwarts.He looked at the little dragon beside him, for the sake of the whole family, he had to give it a try.

At this time, the two people who were followed were having a final conversation.

"...Since there are already traces of him, don't startle the enemy." Professor Roald said lightly, "Dumbledore's people must also be looking for him, pay attention to clean up."

"You will be satisfied, master, there will be no trace of his existence in this world soon." Boggs Chester said respectfully.If it is not in public, he must kneel down and kiss the master's robe feet devoutly.

"Your position is very good." Professor Roald continued calmly. From his expression, it was impossible to tell what they were talking about. "However," he snorted softly, "the first use is actually It's used to clean us inside, which is really unpleasant."

"Subordinates swear to follow their master to the death! Abandon the past, the master has brought new life to the subordinates, and the subordinates are the only ones to follow!" If anyone can see Boggs Chester's face now, they will find that there is something in those gray eyes. A frenzy that was completely opposite to the usual coldness flashed.

Professor Roald nodded. "You go back. Although you are not afraid of being seen, but the matter is not finished yet..."

"Yes, master, this subordinate will definitely live up to the master's entrustment!" The expression on Auror's face was very serious, and no one would think that such a person is actually a death eater through and through. "Master, that Malfoy..." He glanced back sideways before leaving, and the platinum-haired nobleman was hurriedly approaching them.

"I'd like to see what he can do." The corners of his thin lips twitched, but Boggs Chester, who was looking at it, trembled in his heart. The master was not in a good mood.Hmph, but for a duplicitous villain like Malfoy, he was already polite enough to not arrest him into Azkaban, nor send someone to assassinate him... How did he escape the trial back then, and lied about being raped? Imperius Curse?Involuntary?Hmph, dare to do it or not, he is not worthy of shining the master's shoes...I would rather go to Azkaban than slander the master even a word...Thinking like this, Boggs Chester finally turned to Roald The professor nodded, and gave Malfoy a stern look before disapparating.

Malfoy was chilled by that look.But seeing his target person this time leaving in the direction of Hogwarts, he immediately put that look behind him: "Professor!"

Professor Roald stopped, turned around with just the right amount of surprise on his face, as if he had really noticed Malfoy: "Mr. Malfoy?" Draco Malfoy, who was trembling all the time, "To see your son?"

Of course Lucius Malfoy knew his son was afraid, but he couldn't care less about that now.He exchanged a few casual greetings, and let his little dragon go back to school first.Professor Roald looked at the slightly staggering figure calmly, did they know?So Lucius came to Hogwarts in the name of seeing Draco, but he was actually looking for him?

The two walked towards the open space outside the village.Lucius Malfoy didn't stop until the human smoke gradually disappeared.He corrected the expression on his face, then knelt down respectfully: "Master."

Is he stupid?Although there is no one around, this place is still near Hogwarts, and any wizard will see it... Professor Roald thought angrily, and silently cast a blinding spell.Such an opening obviously only made his tone colder: "Lucius, I thought you should be smarter."

The person kneeling on the ground noticed the subtle fluctuation of magic power and lowered his head even lower. "...It's a subordinate... I don't think carefully..." It really is the master!He felt like he was shaking now, like his son.

"Don't tell me that you purposely found an opportunity to come here just to tell me that you didn't think well?" Professor Roald asked sarcastically.It's not a matter of a day or two for Lucius? Malfoy, why hasn't he made any progress?His mind is not bad, he can think that Professor Roald is him, but what he does is still full of flaws...

Lucius Malfoy paused for a moment, and immediately realized that if he didn't say anything to redeem it, it would really be over in the future. "Master, calm down! The Malfoy family will always support the Dark Lord. As long as you say a word, the subordinates are ready to do anything for you!"

Professor Roald snorted coldly.As he expected, Malfoy really couldn't hold back, but he didn't know if he had made up his mind. "Is this anything, including your own life?" The people on the ground immediately trembled violently.He saw this reaction in his eyes, and commented calmly: "It seems that your loyalty has a bottom line...do you know?" He looked at the crimson sunset in the sky, "Limited loyalty will eventually lead to betrayal." .” The words were spoken slowly and clearly.

Last time he thought that the more powerful the better, but in the end, it was these disjointed forces that messed up everything.Everyone has small calculations in their hearts... They all plan what benefits they can get... Once he loses power, these people will not hesitate to abandon him... Such a person, he doesn't want it now!Only those loyal Death Eaters can gain the trust of the Dark Lord... The Dark Lord never forgets those who treat him well, and vice versa...

The tone was actually light, but it sounded like thunder to Lucius Malfoy's ears.Who doesn't know that the Dark Lord hates concealment and deception the most?If betrayal is added, he really doesn't know what kind of painful method it is!He thought that he was fully prepared to deal with the Dark Lord's questioning, but he didn't expect that just one question would make him throw up his armor... His mind was understood, he wanted to follow the Dark Lord to show off his might, but he was afraid of death , he still regards the interests of the Malfoy family as the highest point in his heart...

"It's not true, my lord." Lucius Malfoy was out of breath, but he tried his best not to collapse under the weight. "The Malfoy family is proud to join the Death Eaters... If you want, my master, Draco can also be your servant..."

"Enough." Professor Roald interrupted him. "Let me tell you clearly, Draco may be a very important and proud heir in your eyes," he provoked a sneer, "but to me, he has no value."

Hearing this, Lucius Malfoy's face suddenly turned pale.

"...my servants are not all that loyal, I know, but I didn't value this before...but it's different now," Professor Roald took two steps on the spot, Lucius Malfoy Staring at his moving robe feet in fear, "A new round of selection has begun..." The people on the ground looked up in astonishment. Professor Roald noticed this and seemed very impatient, "Don't show such an expression, you Haven’t you already guessed it? Those who are unqualified will be eliminated, I don’t need these people... Without them, my plan can only go more smoothly..."

Lucius Malfoy couldn't help but began to imagine how the so-called "elimination" would be a masked tragedy in reality.If the Malfoys were among that "they"... big drops of cold sweat rolled down his temples, drowning in the ground that was already chilling and stiff from the early winter weather.

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance," Professor Roald said finally.He looked at the spiers of the castle in the distance, and he had said enough for today... "I know there are many pure-blood nobles like you, Lucius. You might as well convey the meaning of this, I will I know your final decision." He should go back, or his boy will sneak out behind everyone's back.That's not good, he hasn't learned his magic skills yet...

Lucius Malfoy knelt in the cold wind for a long time.By the time the blinding spell wore off, it was already dark, with thick clouds blocking out the stars.He thought about it, and finally the Auror's eyes appeared in his mind, as if he wanted to swallow him alive.He suddenly understood that this was a clever move—the master could use the hands of Aurors to get rid of the Death Eaters who were considered unqualified.If the Auror just now was also a Death Eater, it would be easier to do it... This is almost nothing to say, it can justifiably send someone to Azkaban, or put a killing curse, or give a dementor Kiss... He finally made up his mind, ignored his cold and stiff legs, stumbled up from the ground, and then Apparated away.

The Halloween dinner was as beautiful as ever.After going to Hogsmeade for a whole day, Sirius found time to visit him again, and when he returned to the dormitory, his stomach was full of all kinds of delicious food-Harry felt that he had never had such a wonderful Halloween.After he had washed, he lay lazily on his back on his four-poster bed.

"Still saying you're not a child?" Tom also tidied himself up and sat down on the bed opposite him, staring at the package that kept struggling and screaming, "Why do you buy so many candies?" He turned to look Harry, "Didn't you realize how much you have a sweet tooth?"

The bundle was placed on the bedside table between them, and it contained all kinds of candies that could bite, smoke, change color, become invisible, and so on.When Harry looked at the dazzling array of counters at Honeydukes during the day, he suddenly remembered his expression when he gave Tom Cheese White Mouse in the first grade.Hermione was stunned to see his sweeping posture.Fortunately, Tom can extend the spell without trace, otherwise the three of them must have been watched since Honeydukes came out-because of the huge candy bag.

In retrospect, that kind of mood is very subtle, happy but at the same time a little bit of pain in my heart.Harry simply turned over and sat up, took out a bag of Pepper Naughty Boy from the bag and threw it to the opposite side, followed by Strange Beans, Chocolate Frog, Blowing Super Bubble Gum...

Candy rained down on and around Tom's arms.He looked down at the candies all over his body, and was a little dumbfounded: "Could it be..." Harry didn't buy it for himself to taste, did he?The thought immediately made him angry and funny.But looking at the flickering expression of the person opposite, the possibility of this assumption is very high.

"Don't say it!" Harry turned away angrily.He knew Tom must have figured it out, and he thought it foolish himself.He is an adult Dark Lord, he is no longer a child in that orphanage... But why couldn't he control himself back then?In his heart he blamed himself for his impulsiveness.Lucius Malfoy is here today... He remembered the description of Sirius again, a real Death Eater...

The previous good mood suddenly disappeared, and the appearance of Malfoy broke all the illusion of peace.Had he come to report to Voldemort?Harry remembered that Lucius Malfoy had only escaped during the last battle, and he had always been Voldemort's supporter before that.He single-handedly planned the commotion at the Quidditch World Cup, and took pleasure in torturing Muggles; he delivered news for Voldemort in the Ministry of Magic; he was ordered by Voldemort to go to the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic to snatch the prophecy ball...

Harry had been saying to himself before, to endure, to try, to give Voldemort a chance...but the reality ruthlessly shattered his vision.If Voldemort is still the same as before, letting his men do evil everywhere... what is going on where he can't see?Was there someone else who fell down after being hit by a green light like his mother?

From the "Daily Prophet", he can see that some Death Eaters in the Ministry of Magic have been transferred, and there is also news that Lestrange will take over as Principal Durmstrang because of Karkaroff's mysterious disappearance; but It seemed to Harry that he must have run away again.

So, was there something else going on that he didn't know about?Now it looks like Voldemort is as ambitious as ever... what if he really wants to wipe out all Muggles and establish a unified wizarding world?Mother gave him protection twice with her life, the last time he exchanged the blood and lives of all the people for Voldemort's death; what about this time?He hoped that there would be only one killing at the beginning. Could this really be achieved?Or is it just his own wishful thinking?After all, Voldemort really showed no mercy when he killed his parents...Harry's anger was mixed with confusion.He sat straight on the bed, still holding the candy bag in his hand, which was heavy.

The deeper the hope, the heavier the injury... I knew it would be like this, is it better to only hate?
