"What exactly did you report to the Dark Lord?"

Lucius Malfoy, who had been promoted to be a father for just one month, pulled off his collar with his hand, and put the cane from his left hand to his right hand. The flickering yellow lights in the corridor revealed his face I feel uneasy.

Beside him was Snape who was also summoned by the Dark Lord. The dim light in the corridor made his expressionless face covered with gloom, as if he was very unhappy during this time .

"Why do you ask that?" He frowned, this time the summoning was so unexpected, but he couldn't help but think of the last time, the prophecy he heard in the Pig's Head Bar a month ago, and he hurriedly passed the prophecy Tell the Duke of Darkness, although a month has passed and the Death Eaters have not moved yet.

And he also regretted his recklessness a little bit, he should think more carefully instead of being blinded by his ambition—fortunately, Daniel's due date is not in July, which is also his luck.His child will definitely not be a prophet.

Sure enough, the saying that when a man becomes a father, he will lose his mind and become a child still makes sense. Look at the Patriarch Malfoy who has lost his stability by his side. This is a lesson from the past.

"I heard that Parkinson has found an expert who is good at interpreting prophecies. He has always been opportunistic and used to please his master." Lucius Malfoy resentfully touched the ground with his cane.

But the words should also be addressed to himself. As a speculator, he is no different from Parkinson.

Snape pursed his lips, as expected, it was still because of that prophecy, it had been a month—the person Parkinson had brought in probably changed the matter again, he should know that the Dark Lord is such a suspicious person.

He should be calm, at least not revealing Daniel's existence, and not letting others know that he is married.

Snape lowered his head and looked at the ring on the ring finger of his left hand. He had used the Ignoring Charm and the Hiding Charm beforehand, and no one would notice. He and Daniel used an elopement engagement, and the Ministry of Magic would not notice the marriage file. There is an extra marriage contract in the room.

"I heard a prophecy when I went to the Pig's Head Bar for an interview a month ago. I think it's for this matter." Snape said, they had already reached the door, and it was now half closed, unlike the closed state. He stared at him, as if waiting for them to pass by, and the exposed slit was like an open abyss eye, staring at him, seeing through the disguise on his body, he had to deal with it with extreme caution, otherwise the only thing that greeted him was It will be a hell beyond redemption that even Daniel can't keep.

"What prophecy?" Lucius turned his head in amazement and looked at the potion master who had always been calm. He hadn't heard of it—this made him uneasy about where he was going.

But it was too late to ask, Snape's hand was already on the door, he gently buckled the button, and then pushed the door open.

He could only bow down with Snape to say hello to the interrupted master.

"Oh, Severus and Lucius, you are here." The snake-faced demon king was sitting on his throne, stroking the snake's head with its elongated body, his pet snake was spitting out snake letters, and felt After not being its food, it lowered its head boredly, and continued to surround Voldemort's throne, wrapping its master around several times.

Voldemort raised his hand to signal Snape to come forward, so Snape could only bow forward, prostrated himself on the ground, kissed the foot of his master's robe, and stood up again.

"This is Mr. Robert Manny. He is a senior expert in prophecy interpretation." Voldemort introduced the small old man standing beside him to Snape who came over. He waved his hand and Ling still knelt on the ground. Malfoy stood up.

So Malfoy stood up and walked to the opposite of Parkinson, and gave the Parkinson who was one step ahead of him a deep look.

Patriarch Parkinson raised his chin triumphantly. He was standing beside Manny. The prophecy interpretation expert was over eighty years old. He wore a single-sided round mirror and looked like an old pedant.

"Severus, please repeat that prophecy again."

Snape could only repeat, "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord has approached..."

As soon as he said the first sentence, Parkinson and Malfoy couldn't help but take a deep breath, and they couldn't get out of this room just because they thought it was bad.

Robert Manny interrupted Snape, "Excuse me, did you hear the word conquer?"

"That's true." Snape frowned, "Or do you think I can't tell the difference between vanquish and banquet?"

Malfoy coughed lightly, he lowered his clenched hand to face Parkinson on the opposite side, and then raised his eyebrows.

"Go on." Voldemort held up his warrant to order Snape to continue.

"Born in the family that defeated him three times, at the end of July," continued Snape, telling all he had heard before the prophet interrupted him, "the one with the power to destroy the Dark Lord." people were born at the end of July."

The last sentence was like a dark cloud hanging over the faces of every servant of the Dark Lord present. Parkinson and Malfoy were racking their brains on how to please the Dark Lord and how to escape from the secret they had heard.

They knew very well how vengeful and loathing their master was. When they learned of his failure, half of the subordinates who experienced those times went to see Merlin.

This is also where the Dark Lord is powerful and frightening.

"Robert, what's your opinion?" Voldemort looked at the prophecy interpretation expert kindly.

"I already have some ideas, master, if this is really a prophecy from the Trelawney family——Sybill Trelawney I have dealt with her for a while, and her own prophecy talent even surpasses her. It’s not as good as my cousin.” Robert Manny bowed and said, and the cousin was the one who worked in the weather forecast department of the Ministry of Magic. It is because there will be showers tomorrow and bring rain gear. Everyone is ridiculing that anyone who can speak English can work in the weather forecasting department of the Ministry of Magic.

"But—" he suddenly turned around, which made Parkinson and Malfoy's relaxed hearts tense again, "she is indeed the heir of the authentic Trelawney, I mean as long as she enters that state— That state is different from her usual state, like being possessed by a ghost, as long as you have seen her state at that time, you will never forget it."

"I couldn't see her in person, only Dumbledore was face to face with her." Snape said, "But Dumbledore must have been surprised too, she was interviewing the divination professor at the time, and I could hear that the voice was very thin , it’s like being choked, it’s not the way normal people speak.”

"I also don't think Sybil would joke about this kind of thing. Although the so-called fortune tellers like to talk about gods and gods, she is very good," Robert Manny pouted, "you know the kind , timid. She's a Hufflepuff."

Now everyone present could imagine the character of Sybill Trelawney, and it was really impossible to make fun of the Dark Lord.

"But there are a few things I want to confirm about the content of this prophecy. First of all—this gentleman, did you really hear the family that defeated him three times? 'Once', 'Three times'?" He looked at Snape, his gaze was so sharp that it seemed a sword was aimed straight at him.

Snape pursed his lips, he didn't like the so-called expert accusing him in such a pointed tone.

But did he really remember correctly?

Did he really hear the word, three times instead of two?

"I should have heard it three times, but I can't rule out it being two." Snape couldn't be sure for a while, so he could only change his words, smoothly changing it to three or two times.

What if—after all, he missed a large section in the middle, does three or two make any big changes to this prophecy?

"Then it may be the family that beat him twice, then let's look at the third sentence, born at the end of July, you used the seventh, then is it possible that it is the third or No.11? These have The times sound very close, after all you're not close enough to hear all the prophecies." Robert Manny pointed sharply at Snape.

"I'm not sure." Snape pursed his lips, he really couldn't guarantee with his personality that what he said was a real prophecy.

He looked to the Dark Lord, and saw that they understood that their master was looking appreciatively at the prophecy interpreter.

Robert Manny continued, "So we can't rule out the possibility of March and November, and the next one is the so-called end of July. How do you define the end of July? Of course July 31 is the end of July, so 30 What about the 29th? How about the 24th and 25th?"

"Oh, Robert, this is also where I am confused." Voldemort appreciated that the prophecy interpretation expert finally got to the point, "There are so many babies born every day, it is impossible to mark every one of them as the child in the prophecy."

Now Snape finally understood why the Dark Lord had been hesitant to act, because he was simply not sure about the prophesied savior.

"According to my many years of research and prophecy and the customary habits of our magic world, we generally divide a month into the first ten days, the middle ten days and the last ten days, and the days after the 20th are classified as the last ten days, and the end is the end. In a broad sense, it refers to the 25th. After that, it can sometimes include the 25th, because of the uncertainty of the prophecy, and the consistent vagueness, we can understand it as a child born after the 25th, including the 25th. Since this prophecy uses neutral words, then boys and girls It’s all possible, and prophecy generally refers to predicting the future, so the child may be born this year, or next year or even the year after, and defeating the Dark Lord twice or three times must refer to things before the child was born .” Robert Manny elaborated a long list.

"Oh, that's it. You're absolutely right. It's almost exactly what I thought." Voldemort clapped his hands.

He stood up from his seat, and Lucius Malfoy stepped forward.

"Now go and sort out the list of babies born on the 25th of this month, including their family information. The focus is on those who are against me, especially those from the Order of the Phoenix." Voldemort narrowed his eyes, "Don't miss a single one."

"Yes, my master." Malfoy put his right hand on his chest, bowed and knelt down and kissed Voldemort's robe.

"It's not just the direct lineage of those families—the prophecy is very general. Sometimes, it's the side lineages that play a big role." This annoying and talkative Robert Manny added a knife.

Snape couldn't help clenching his hands. He stood aside and saw Malfoy lead the order to monitor St. Mungo.

"Oh, thank you, Severus, thanks to you, although predicting such nonsense, always be careful." Voldemort reached out and patted his heartfelt subordinate on the shoulder.

"It's my honor, I only wish I didn't hear the full prophecy." Snape suppressed the thorn in his heart, he calmed down, and maintained a calm mind to reply.

Only when he left, in the dim corridor, Snape let go of his clenched right hand, and blood oozed from the palm.

Late March will also be checked, so if Daniel is born prematurely - no, how could his baby be the one that was prophesied?

But Daniel's surname is Potter, and James Potter is now the mainstay of the Order of the Phoenix—no, in fact Daniel himself is already fighting against the Dark Lord.

Snape leaned against the cold stone wall, the cold wind in the corridor chilling his forehead.

He regained his footing.

"Severus, why didn't you even discuss such an important matter with me in advance - almost, my little dragon will be censored! Fortunately, it's July! It's the seventh, not July!" Malfoy The Patriarch ran over and grabbed Snape by the collar, staring fiercely at his promising potions master.

"That lord was just suspicious. You thought you saw honor—in fact, it might be an abyss that you can't turn back." His voice squeezed out through his teeth, he let go of his hand after admonishing, and his expression recovered With his usual bland indifference, he took the cane and left first.

Malfoy was worried about his baby, so what could he do with his unborn child?To protect his children from going up.That damn list.

Snape walked towards the cold hall expressionlessly, and left the Death Eaters' stronghold through the fireplace.

He did make a mistake, a big mistake!
