Chapter 230 Snape: I Understand!

Snape's face was dark.

Who are you playing with?

With that stupid Potter?

Am I crazy, or are you crazy?

Or is this world crazy?

Go out and ask someone, can I, Severus Snape, and a Potter... play together?

But...

There is no doubt that Snape is a very smart wizard.

After Dumbledore had said in person that he would kill Voldemort himself, he was still training Potter, the man who could kill Voldemort in the prophecy.

This shows that Dumbledore is not sure of winning.

Or... there are some things that only Harry Potter can do.

Snape's face became even gloomier.

"Is there any danger?" Snape asked inexplicably.

Snape is not a person who does not know the importance of things. Harry Potter is Voldemort's nemesis. There are some things that he cannot escape, and he will have to face them sooner or later.

But Snape didn't want Harry to be in danger.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone undercover to Voldemort's side at this time.

Dumbledore was silent for a moment.

Harry was one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, and he must die - at least once.

In order to prevent Harry's death, Dumbledore was already thinking about countermeasures.

"Maybe there will be danger." Dumbledore said in a deep voice, he didn't want to deceive Snape.

"Maybe there will be danger?"

Snape's tone was full of sarcasm, he looked very impatient, "So you keep him and train him, even if it's just to let him face that danger one day?"

In Snape's view, fighting Voldemort might be Harry's destiny, but this destiny should not be arranged by others.

Dumbledore closed his eyes painfully.

Sometimes people have to face choices. If you choose one thing, you must lose another thing.

All of them - that only exists in ideals.

Let Voldemort continue to live, and then suddenly resurrect one day, continue to stir up trouble in the wizarding world, and bring disaster to the world...

Or make a small sacrifice and completely kill Voldemort?

Admittedly, no one has the right to arrange others to sacrifice, but in Dumbledore's position, there are some things he must do.

Because apart from Dumbledore, no one in the wizarding world can do it.

Otherwise, what?

Is it necessary to let Fudge fight Voldemort?

"That's why I need Harry to grow up as soon as possible."

Dumbledore looked at Snape seriously and said sincerely: "Only by letting Harry grow up as soon as possible can we have a chance to destroy Voldemort."

Snape calmed down a little, and he asked in confusion: "What exactly do you need him to do?"

Dumbledore looked out the window absentmindedly, "The one who has the ability to defeat the Dark Lord is approaching... Born in a family that has resisted him three times, born at the end of July..."

"The Dark Lord will mark him as his rival, but he will have a power that the Dark Lord does not know... One of them must die at the hands of the other, because two people cannot both live, only one survives..."

Snape had also heard this prophecy.

But he only heard the first three sentences, and then he ran to tell Voldemort.

Snape did not expect that the latter part of the prophecy was the key.

This prophecy made Snape very painful. It was because of his betrayal that Voldemort killed Lily's family.

But if analyzed from the perspective of "predicting the future", Snape's betrayal is actually "part of the future".

That was the future that was bound to happen. If it wasn't Snape, it would be someone else.

Because if Voldemort didn't know the first three sentences of the prophecy, he wouldn't have been so excited to run to mark his rival.

Of course, the reason why Voldemort believed in this prophecy and believed that someone could defeat him was entirely because Dumbledore believed it.

So Dumbledore was also part of the prophecy.

"Only one can survive... Only one can survive... Only one can survive..." Snape repeated it several times in a row.

The truth of the prophecy was a bit cruel, especially for Snape, this prophecy was even more cruel.

"Severus!"

Dumbledore said sincerely, "The prophecy has happened, and there is that mark... We need Harry."

After a long while, Snape finally calmed down.

Only one of the two can survive...

This is good news for Snape.

"The power that Voldemort doesn't understand... What is that?" Snape asked.

Snape thought that Dumbledore needed to use that power.

But what he didn't know was that the mark was the most important to Dumbledore.

"It's love!" Dumbledore said.

Snape: "..."

"You want to defeat the Dark Lord with love?" Snape's tone was full of sarcasm.

Dumbledore has been promoting love, and Snape thought it was just a kind of quality education - after all, he is the principal, teaching is important, but educating people is equally important.

But now you tell me, you want to defeat Voldemort with love?

Hmm?

Is it the magic left by Lily?

When he thought of this, Snape's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Sure enough, Lily is the best.

Relying only on that idiot Potter, he is not worthy of being a savior at all.

"In this world we live in, emotion is the only power that can transcend dimensions."

Dumbledore said slowly: "This is the power that Voldemort does not understand!"

"I understand!" Snape said lightly.

You are talking about love, I may not understand.

But if you are talking about Lily, then I must understand better than anyone else.

Dumbledore: "?"

Do you really understand?

"I don't understand, you have decided to do it yourself..."

Snape suddenly asked: "Why do you still need to use this power?"

Dumbledore sighed slightly in his heart.

Power is important, but the mark is the most important.

"Severus..."

Dumbledore's voice sounded a little tired, "When the time is right, I will tell you everything."

Snape stopped asking after hearing this.

He already knew enough today.

What's more, he can investigate it himself.

Speaking of investigation...Andy Collins's face suddenly appeared in Snape's mind.

If the Potter father and son occupy the top two positions on Snape's disgust list, then Andy should at least be ranked sixth or seventh.

In front of Andy were Sirius, Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew.

He was lucky that he failed to kill Sirius last time.

Back to Andy Collins...

Snape had some guesses in his mind, "Could that Collins kid already know these secrets?"

Snape was a little bit unconvinced.

"Maybe we can try it out..." Snape thought.

If Andy doesn't know, there's no loss. But if Andy knows... then he'll make a lot of money.
