Chapter 69

He could guarantee that if he hadn't said he wanted to go to Slytherin to help Harry while under the influence of Veritaserum, Dumbledore would never have let him go to Slytherin.

This old guy says Slytherin is also full of children.

In reality, as soon as one enters Slytherin, this old guy becomes wary and cautious.

He even felt that this old guy agreeing to let him go to Slytherin today was just a way to appease Snape.

After all, Dumbledore couldn't bring himself to say Slytherin had problems in front of this double agent.

And as long as the Sorting Hat really sorted him into Slytherin, he figured he would often be called to Dumbledore's office for Legilimency.

But why did he say he wanted to go to Slytherin even though he knew Dumbledore was suspicious?

First, the protagonist is in Gryffindor; if he went to Gryffindor, he would definitely be overshadowed by Harry.

Second, most of the people he currently knows are in Slytherin, and they all feel quite good.

Even the tsundere Miss Greengrass is very interesting.

Not to mention there is a Cassandra he hasn't met yet, the Slytherin "Ka-jie."

Third, of course, is to deliberately farm Saintly Father Points from Dumbledore.

Hey!

It's just going to Slytherin, just to mess with your mentality.

Just to make you suspicious every day whether I've betrayed you.

And then feel guilty after using Legilimency.

Back and forth a thousand times, piss off that suspicious old guy Dumbledore!

At first, Darren felt any house would do.

Now Darren only thinks of Slytherin House.

This is simply a great place to farm Saintly Father Points!

Darren smiled triumphantly.

He remembered there was one reward from today he hadn't used yet.

He had gained a bloodline draw.

【Draw】

【Ding, starting bloodline draw. Draw finished. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining Snape's bloodline.

(On that night when Lily was injured, Snape perhaps lost some bloodline in his anxiety.)

Starting to distribute rewards. Distribution successful.】

Snape's bloodline:

Mottled Prince bloodline. After fusion, you can gain Potion Talent +10, Potion Innovation Ability +20, and gain Snape's suspicious gaze.

Oh, this?

This System is not right!

What does it mean that Snape lost some bloodline?

So Voldemort loses bloodline, and Snape loses it too?

The System should tell him what his Lily-mom went through!

Darren's expression turned into that of a subway old man looking at his phone.

This isn't scientific!

He might have suspected before what Voldemort did to Lily, but he absolutely didn't suspect what Snape did to Lily.

That old virgin wouldn't dare.

So this System is stirring up trouble!

If this got out, his James-dad might be so angry he'd jump out of his grave.

The boy obediently picked up the cup and drank the potion.

Completely unaware that the old man in front of him, along with a greasy, gloomy old bat, had drugged him.

He trusted them innocently and ignorantly.

And they repeatedly betrayed his trust.

Snape thought with a gloomy face.

"At the very beginning, I was a little jealous of Harry..."

The boy said so.

His voice carried some sadness.

In a daze, he thought he saw Lily.

The last time Lily saw him, it was also in this tone.

She said she had some regrets.

But she never regretted it.

Snape wanted to cry then, wanted to apologize to her.

He wanted to tell her he never said that word again.

Nor did he ever believe another word Voldemort said.

He even went to be a double agent for Dumbledore.

But in the end, he said nothing.

He couldn't disturb Lily's life anymore.

As long as he did everything well, Dumbledore said he would hide them well.

Who knew Dumbledore would finally say she died because of the betrayal of that damn friend of James.

Sure enough, he shouldn't have trusted that stupid man.

He killed Lily!

After Lily died, he could only start protecting Lily's child.

Although he didn't think that man would ever come back.

For these ten years, he was like a ghost of Hogwarts, wandering in this dwelling place of souls.

Waiting for that final redemption.

Until he met Darren.

Darren Potter.

The moment he saw this child, he thought in a daze that he saw Lily.

Especially when he bravely and fearlessly blocked in front of him, he almost really thought Lily had returned.

For this, he almost killed that Muggle.

When he came to his senses afterward, he didn't even understand why he did such a stupid thing!

But it must be said, this little cub named Darren was indeed very much like Lily.

At first glance, he felt his heart soften, and even looking at those green eyes, he couldn't even say sarcastic words.

He had always felt that he had made an exception for that boy.

Who knew Dumbledore would let him know today that he was still so despicable.

"Severus, I need a few drops of Veritaserum."

"What do you want to use it for? To let that Mundungus have a taste? To let him know the brother of the Boy Who Lived isn't so easy to bully?"

Snape mocked.

Then he saw Dumbledore shake his head and say:

"No, it's for Darren."

"Dumbledore! What exactly do you want?"

"It's not what I want, but this child... I can't see through him.

On the surface, he really is like a good child; he loves life, helps others...

He is good to house-elves, understanding to everyone, and even the wand he holds is cypress, representing a fearless spirit and willingness to sacrifice.

But I suddenly realized that he can get benefits from everything he does.

I don't know if this is his luck or if he is doing it on purpose. I need to understand him better."

Snape recalled these words, closed his eyes, and threw himself into the chair.

He compromised. ===== CHAPTER 71 =====
