Chapter 718 Conversation in the Principal’s Room

In the sealed principal's room at Hogwarts, Dumbledore was sitting in his seat, reading letters from parents with great interest.

From time to time, an owl would fly in from the open window with a red roaring letter, and then a harsh roar would resound in the principal's office.

Suddenly, as if he sensed something, Dumbledore raised his hand and waved his wand, closing the open window. More owls were intercepted outside the window.

The roaring in the principal's room also stopped abruptly, and the roaring letter was reduced to ashes in an instant.

After a while, the door to the principal's office was opened, and Snape, wearing a black robe, walked in. He took out a bottle of golden potion from his pocket and put it on the table, and then pushed it to Dumbledore's desk. before.

"Your medicine!" Snape said coldly.

"Thank you, Severus, thank you for having me!" Dumbledore nodded, took the reagent, gestured to Snape, and drank it in one gulp.

"This is the last dose of medicine. Next time, when the injury occurs again, I have no way to suppress it!" Snape's words were very sharp.

"Severus, I remember you told me that even if this injury recurs, it won't kill me immediately, is that right?" Dumbledore's face remained calm, and he emptied the finished potion. He put the bottle down, looked at Snape, and asked.

"Indeed... it won't kill you immediately, but it will spread throughout your body in just a few months. Believe me, it will never be easier than death!" Snape sarcastically said. said.

"How many months? Approximately how long?" Dumbledore looked at the blackened right hand and asked softly. "I mean, its impact will not cause me to lose my most basic actions and spell-casting abilities..."

"About two months? Three months?" Snape said uncertainly.

"It's too short!" Dumbledore shook his head, and after pondering for a moment, he suddenly said with a solemn expression. "Maybe I have a way to delay it for a while..."

"It doesn't matter whether it's more or less... If you really had a way to alleviate it, it wouldn't be delayed until now, right?" Snape said impatiently. He even thought that the start of Hogwarts next semester would The banquet might turn into Dumbledore's funeral.

"We shouldn't think so, Severus. If we arrange things well, even the last few months will be enough for us to do something!" Dumbledore said in a relaxed tone.

"For example, take the life of the Dark Lord?" Snape looked at Dumbledore with a hint of mockery, unable to understand where the other party's optimistic attitude came from. He did not think that things would change if the other party lived a little longer.

Dumbledore had no intention of replying, but continued to ask. "What has Voldemort been up to lately?"

"Thanks to us, he is alive and kicking now!" Snape said with an unnatural expression.

Voldemort's injuries originally required him to recuperate for at least a month, but Dumbledore suddenly found him two days ago, gave him a few drops of phoenix tears, and asked him to prepare a special potion to treat Voldemort's injuries...

"What exactly do you want to do? Voldemort was seriously injured this time. We could have calmed down for a while during this period." Snape's tone was very harsh.

He couldn't understand why Dumbledore asked him to treat Voldemort. When he confirmed Voldemort's injury, he even thought that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He could kill him by launching a surprise attack!

"If he could be killed so easily, then Voldemort wouldn't be alive today..." Dumbledore could naturally understand the doubts in Snape's heart and explained in a deep voice.

It is extremely easy for wizards like them to escape with their lives in a battle. Even if faced with dozens of well-trained Aurors at the same time, Voldemort can fight back and win easily...

The reason why he was injured this time was entirely because Voldemort had just been resurrected and was too swollen. With this lesson, the other party would only be more careful.

"Even so, for the sake of Potter's safety, we shouldn't cure him!" Snape paced in the principal's office anxiously.

After Voldemort recovered from his injuries, he became furious and immediately summoned the Death Eaters to plan revenge, which made Snape regretful.

"It's impossible for him to find where Harry is!" Dumbledore said, and he thought that Voldemort would probably never want to meet Harry again until he figured out the connection between the two Phoenix wands.

"What about the others?" Snape asked again.

"I'm glad you can start thinking about the safety of other people, Severus!" Dumbledore looked at him in surprise, with a hint of unexpected joy in his tone. "But I reorganized the Order of the Phoenix, and most of those who need to be protected are already in safe places..."

"Mostly? That means there are exceptions?" This time it was Snape's turn to be surprised.

Dumbledore stood up, frowned, and raised his voice slightly. "Asia! Hals's mother, I persuaded her to join the Order of the Phoenix a few days ago, but she rejected my proposal without hesitation, more simply than I expected!"

"She may have thought that her son was capable of competing against the Dark Lord..." Snape said with a sneer.

He had met the Death Eaters yesterday, so he knew that some of them were hiding in Knockturn Alley.

Not only that, Voldemort has been planning to expand his power secretly. In addition to recruiting dementors to liberate the imprisoned believers, the dark wizards in Knockturn Alley are also a good choice.

If Asia and Ivan continue to stay in Knockturn Alley, they will encounter Voldemort soon.

Dumbledore shook his head. He didn't think Asia would be so trusting. Ivan personally participated in that battle and should have a clear understanding of Voldemort's strength.

So he originally thought that after leaving school, the child would come to him for help, or that Asia could change his mind temporarily, but neither of these happened. Ivan left very simply, which made him very curious.

"As far as I know, there is only one magic that can ensure safety from Voldemort's pursuit..." Dumbledore murmured to himself.

"You mean the Fidelity Charm?" Snape paused and quickly thought of what Dumbledore was referring to.

Dumbledore said nothing. He did guess so, but he was not sure.

After all, the Red Loyalty Curse is an extremely advanced magic that is not even recorded in the restricted book area of ​​Hogwarts. They have no way to learn it...
