Chapter 166 Lucius: Should I Go and Tell on Someone?
Diary?
Snape was moved in his heart, but his face remained calm.
He gently put down his sleeves, and then answered Lucius's question, "I have seen him, he is still alive."
"hiss--"
Lucius took a breath of air, the fear in his eyes was real, and the hand holding the wine glass was trembling slightly.
That’s right! He, Lucius Malfoy, was a 'loyal' Death Eater.
But the premise of this loyalty is that Voldemort is still alive and powerful.
In fact, as early as the late stage of the last Wizarding War, many pure-blood families headed by Lucius Malfoy no longer trusted Voldemort.
If they were not afraid of Voldemort's power and methods, they would have betrayed Voldemort long ago.
Unlike those Death Eaters who were invaded by dark magic, acted crazy, and were completely loyal to Voldemort, in Lucius's heart, the Malfoy family always came first.
At the beginning, he also hoped to use Voldemort's power to change the status quo of the pure-blood family's gradual weakness and restore the glory of his ancestors.
But when Voldemort gained complete power, his true face was revealed.
Voldemort may care about the wizard's bloodline, but what he cares about most is always himself.
He treats pureblood families as slaves.
During that time, life was not easy for pure-blood families.
But Voldemort's power was too powerful, and Lucius did not dare to have any thoughts of betrayal.
Lucius more than anyone wanted Voldemort to come back.
"He, he is really still alive?"
Lucius asked in disbelief: "Then he...then why did he...?"
"That night, the Dark Lord lost all his power."
Snape said calmly: "Originally, I thought he was dead, but last year... I saw him with my own eyes."
Lucius took a deep breath.
He wanted to say that since Voldemort has lost all his power, we should leave him alone.
Anyway, he is dead.
But Lucius didn't dare.
If Voldemort really came back, Lucius felt that it would be better for him to be a 'loyal' Death Eater.
"Then he..."
Lucius opened his mouth, and he quickly responded, "Severus...that diary!"
Lucius was a little desperate.
He personally delivered the important items that Voldemort had entrusted to him for safekeeping to Dumbledore.
Voldemort will definitely kill him.
"According to Dumbledore, that thing involves the secret of the Dark Lord's immortality."
Snape asked tentatively: "What is that?"
Lucius didn't notice anything strange about Snape. He shook his head in despair, "I don't know! I've never looked at that thing since the Dark Lord gave it to me."
Snape's eyes flashed slightly and he comforted: "Don't worry, there are more than one things like that. As long as they are not destroyed all, the Dark Lord will never die."
Lucius: Haha, I hope he dies right away!
"Yeah, really? That's great."
Lucius said dryly: "Severus, does the Dark Lord have any instructions?"
Snape nodded, "The Dark Lord is planning a resurrection, and he wants me to help him release a Death Eater... from Azkaban."
Lucius looked happy, "I can help him."
Snape looked at Lucius with playful eyes, "That is not an easy task. I met the Dark Lord last year. He possessed Quirrell and absorbed all his life force."
Lucius: Pretend I didn’t say that.
"Then you...want me to help you enter Azkaban?" Lucius quickly understood Snape's intention.
Lucius was a little confused.
He didn't want to do this. He wanted Voldemort to die. Even if he lost his power forever, it would be better than him coming back.
He wanted to ask Snape, are you really loyal to Voldemort?
But……
The words came to his lips, but Lucius didn't dare to say a single word.
"Severus, help me."
Lucius pleaded: "I must get that diary back."
Snape looked at Lucius as if he were a fool, "No one can get what he wants to protect from Dumbledore's hands. What's more, Dumbledore has already destroyed that thing."
Lucius sat on the sofa in despair.
Of course he knew he couldn't get it back. The reason why he said this was just hoping that Snape could put in a good word for him in front of Voldemort.
If Voldemort did come back, he would probably die.
But he didn't dare to stop it.
"Please help me find a chance..."
Snape looked at Lucius and said slowly, "As for the Dark Lord, I will help you."
"thanks, thanks!"
Lucius raised his head sharply and looked at Snape as if grasping a life-saving straw, "Leave it to me in Azkaban. I will find out the situation of the guards as soon as possible."
Snape said calmly: "Don't be so anxious, we still have a long time to plan slowly."
"As for that diary..."
"Maybe that would allow Dumbledore to discover the secret of the Dark Lord's immortality, but there's more than one thing like that, and maybe we can exploit that in turn."
Lucius quickly understood what Snape meant.
This guy wants to kill Dumbledore!
this…
Should I go snitch?
Although Dumbledore is annoying, he...is better than Voldemort after all, right?
After all, Dumbledore is only slightly annoying, but Voldemort is deadly!
As long as Dumbledore is alive, Voldemort dare not be too reckless. Thinking of this, Lucius suddenly felt that Dumbledore seemed to be more pleasing to the eye than before.
"It would be great if Dumbledore could be killed."
Lucius was surprised when he heard this, and then he said carefully: "But for this matter, should we wait until the Dark Lord is resurrected before discussing it with him...?"
Snape nodded slightly, and didn't care about it.
Once Voldemort agrees to this plan, he will take the initiative to reveal the location of other dark magic items.
Even if Voldemort lays out in advance, as long as Dumbledore is careful and prepared in advance, Voldemort can't do anything to Dumbledore.
Letting Voldemort take the initiative to reveal the location of other dark magic items is much faster than searching aimlessly.
Especially, this plan was mentioned by Lucius.
It seems reasonable.
Snape stood up and said, "When Azkaban is arranged, remember to notify me."
"Don't worry!" Lucius stood up and said.
"Oh right!"
Snape suddenly remembered something, "That Black, the newspaper said he was the craziest Death Eater?"
Lucius immediately thought of who Snape was talking about, "Are you talking about Sirius Black?"
Snape said sarcastically, "He is your relative, you can apply for a visit. Ask him if he is willing to help the Dark Lord regain his power?"
Then, let Voldemort possess him, absorb his vitality, and torture him to death.
