Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor - Vol 2 Chapter 418

Popular recommendation:

“Are you ready for retirement? Are you going to have Professor McGonagall take over your job?”

Sherlock no longer bothered about the fact that Dumbledore was going to be the hands-off shopkeeper at this time, and asked him about his preparations afterwards.

Dumbledore stared at him, chuckling.

“Before I recruited you to Hogwarts, or before I decided on this plan today, my idea was to let Minerva take over my job. But now, you think she can still make sense. Do you deserve to be the headmaster of this school?”

Sherlock raised an eyebrow.

“why not?”

“Don’t take it for granted as an adult, Sherlock,” said Dumbledore. “You know very well that if you force Minerva into my place now, and you’re under her, it It brought her a lot of trouble. And I also asked her thoughts from side to side not long ago, and she seems to respect you more.”

Sherlock and Dumbledore looked at each other.

“So, none of you are going to ask my opinion?”

“I’m trying to understand your thoughts, Sherlock. I know very well that you’re not so keen on so-called power, otherwise you would have gone to the Ministry of Magic when Scrimgeour offered you an olive branch. Coupled with today’s feat, it is not an exaggeration to directly take his place as Minister of Magic, and a Hogwarts headmaster is nothing.”

Dumbledore said seriously.

“If you really don’t want to take my place in the end, you can continue to be the current defense professor. I will convince Minerva to be the principal. The school will be as usual except that I will not be in the castle. It’s just that your life is not destined to be as peaceful as it was before, and that’s something you have to accept now.”

Sherlock rubbed his forehead with a headache.

To be honest, all he didn’t want to accept as Dumbledore’s headmaster was to avoid public appearances for too long in the future.

Sherlock has always felt that being a public figure is a tiring thing, whether in ordinary society or in the wizarding world.

Some people are rushing for fame and fortune, but Sherlock shows some shyness.

But what Dumbledore said was not wrong at all, that no matter what, his life in the future would not be as smooth as it once was.

This problem is not something that can be figured out and decided in a short time. When encountering a problem that he can’t solve for the time being, Sherlock’s choice is to escape first.

“We’ll talk about your retirement later. Anyway, even if you’re so anxious to leave, you won’t be able to hand over the work in one or two days. You also plan to put your Did you resign from your job?”

Dumbledore nodded.

“I do need some preparation time, and calling you over today is indeed more than that.”

His tone became solemn, and Sherlock knew that what he was going to say to himself was the focus of tonight’s conversation.

“After you left in the afternoon, Scrimgeour also came to the scene of the war, and he directed the Aurors to arrest all the Death Eaters caught there. I took this opportunity and asked him to help kill a few core Death Eaters. After the disciples gathered together, used magic to kill their will to resist, used Legilimency on them, and saw a large part of Voldemort-related memories.”

“The most critical of this is about Harry.”

“Harry?” Sherlock frowned.

“That’s right, Harry. The summer vacation is here, and Harry has said many times at night that he will dream of becoming Voldemort himself. You knew that at the time, and I noticed from the beginning that since Harry If you can see the situation on Voldemort’s side, then Voldemort may not be able to discover this in the future, and use this to affect Harry.”

“And just not long ago, he really discovered this, he and his most loyal men made a plan, wanting to perform a different performance on Harry later, and then lure Harry out. But this Before the plan was implemented, he had already encountered what happened today.”

“Of course, that’s not the point. The real point is what the connection between Harry and Voldemort is.”

Dumbledore looked at Sherlock without blinking.

“On this point, I told you not long ago that I have a guess, and now, I think this guess can be said to be basically confirmed.”

“More than ten years ago, on the night that Voldemort learned of the prophecy from Snape and wanted to kill the boy in the prophecy who could defeat him in the future, while he was being attacked by his own life-threatening curse, he also inadvertently A Horcrux split out.”

Sherlock’s breathing became a little heavier, and he seemed to have guessed how shocking the world would be once the news that Dumbledore said next came out.

“He didn’t even know about it, Harry’s mother, Lily, became the victim of this Horcrux, helping him to successfully split his own soul for the seventh time, and the split soul was Always stay with Harry Potter!”

……

Hogwarts was extraordinarily quiet late at night.

Snape’s office was still brightly lit.

He needs plenty of light when making potions, so there are countless candlesticks suspended directly above him, illuminating the area around the cauldron.

He did not participate in the battle yesterday in any capacity.

Voldemort had not yet had the unreserved trust in him to inform him of this private action in advance.

And because there is no way to determine the final result, the Order of the Phoenix has no plans to let him participate in the battle.

If it didn’t develop to the best results like today, then Snape would continue to be his double agent.

Fortunately, such a situation is also what he most wants to see.

It wasn’t that he was afraid of death, but he didn’t want to let Harry, who had Lily’s remnant on his body, encounter any more danger. Now that the biggest danger, Voldemort, was gone, Snape felt that he could temporarily put a tense one on him. Heart let go.

Just as he was gently stirring the potion in the cauldron, thinking about the changes that would take place in the magical world after tonight, a transparent mold lake figure passed through his door.

Even if he didn’t keep his focus, Snape noticed the anomaly at the first time.

At first, he subconsciously thought that it was the most mischievous ghost in the school, Peeves, and he was bold enough to come to him to make trouble in the middle of the night, but when he completely saw the figure that was even more illusory than the ghost, the whole The human body froze!

“Li… Lily!”

Lily was very nervous. She looked at Snape with a pleading expression, just like the expression she had pleading with the mysterious man to let Harry go that night more than ten years ago.

“Go save Harry… Severus… please… go and save him…”

Snape’s face turned gloomy immediately, he quickly put the robe on the hanger over himself, and then gave up the precious potion that could be finished in the pot without hesitation, and walked quickly with Lily Leave the office.

“What’s wrong with Potter?” Snape asked after leaving the office as fast as he could.

Lily was very panicked, and there was anxiety and anxiety in her voice.

“I don’t know, in the afternoon, something suddenly appeared in his body. I don’t know what it was, he was very powerful, and even the protection magic I once left Harry couldn’t stop it. I was rejected, the thing was still in Harry’s body, I could feel that Harry was in a very wrong situation, I also went to the offices of Professor Forrest and Professor Dumbledore, but they were not there, I can only come to you.”

After listening to Lily’s retelling, Snape’s mood became heavier.

He didn’t know what was going on with Harry, but it felt like it was definitely not an easy thing to tell him!

Quickly walked to the entrance of the Gryffindor lounge, even if there was no password, as one of the four headmasters of Hogwarts, Snape had enough authority to enter and exit from here~www.mtlnovel.com~ Before that, he had a special intention. Just in case, he asked the fat lady in charge of the door to notify Professor McGonagall, wake her up and come to Harry’s dormitory immediately.

After entering Gryffindor’s lounge, Snape quickly found Harry’s bedroom under Lily’s guidance.

He pushed the door directly and walked in.

Snape didn’t hide his movement. He opened the door loudly, awakening Seamus and Ron, who were sleeping relatively lightly. The two of them lifted the curtains of the four-poster bed blankly and watched Snape walk to Ha. Lee’s bed.

Just as soon as he entered the dormitory, Snape felt a familiar aura that made him feel uneasy.

And after seeing the black mist looming beside Harry, his whole body trembled!

“go out!”

This is what he said to Ron and a few people.

Seamus and the others were a little afraid of Snape. Although they didn’t make it clear, they quickly put on their clothes and left the dormitory.

Ron was worried about Harry, he didn’t leave immediately, and when he wanted to ask something, Snape waved his wand and threw him out of the bedroom.

And Harry, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes.

He saw Snape who was watching him, there was no panic or doubt on his face, and his calm eyes were like a pool of stagnant water.

“Severus, you really are my most loyal subordinate, you recognized me right away.”

Hearing another familiar tone from the familiar voice, Snape called out that title with a trembling voice.

“Master…Master.”
