Chapter 748

~4 min read 622 words

But she had conditions for returning.

The school had to ensure her safety.

So the school hired a few gnomes in the corridors. They carried large clubs and spoke in very loud voices.

They saw everyone as a bad person.

Ron became a celebrity overnight.

Because Darren wasn't very willing to describe what happened that night, everyone would go to Ron to ask.

He was overjoyed, telling everyone what happened over and over again.

"... I suddenly woke up at that time because I saw Black looking around at my bed.

He didn't see me wake up, he turned around and used a knife to cut open Darren's bed curtains... I seemed to see his ferocious smile at that time, he must have been overjoyed.

He could kill Darren with one slash... I don't know where I got the courage, I screamed loudly, and finally he ran away..."

Ron told everyone.

However, he was also very puzzled in private.

"Why didn't he kill me at that time?

Darren was clearly drunk, he wasn't clear-headed when he woke up, and even fainted at Professor McGonagall's place.

If Black had killed him then, he wouldn't have been able to resist at all, so why didn't Black kill us?"

Yes! Black had once killed twelve people without any hesitation...

He could have blown them up again.

Maybe he could have even blown Harry up.

However, Harry immediately pondered and said: "Perhaps he was worried about meeting a professor; if he caused a big commotion, he might not have been able to get out.

He didn't come with the idea of dying together with me and Darren; he wanted to kill us, and then find Voldemort to surrender!"

His explanation won the agreement of many people.

Of course, it also made him even more furious.

Because Black actually still wanted to work for Voldemort! He thought Black was a person whose conscience was completely corrupted.

Of course.

Besides that, the most miserable one was Neville.

He was put in detention by Professor McGonagall, and he was also punished by not being allowed to go to Hogsmeade anymore.

Professor McGonagall didn't even give Neville the password; he had to wait for someone from Gryffindor to come out at night and kindly take him in.

After Darren's request for him was fruitless, he finally had to come out at night himself to send him into Gryffindor.

This made Neville even more guilty.

He once said to Darren: "I almost killed you, it's all my fault, Professor McGonagall punishing me is right, I'm truly disgusting!"

His words were full of self-abandonment.

Darren sighed heavily.

Just when he really wanted to say something, the system's task finally popped up.

【Ding, detected a scene where the Saint Father system can be utilized around the host, now issuing a temporary task:

Comfort Neville and tell him you don't mind.】

【Ding, after completing the task, obtain reward: Black's favorability +20, does the host accept the task?】

【Accept】

Darren clicked accept without even thinking.

A few words, and he could make Black increase his favorability toward him by twenty again.

Now Black's favorability was about sixty, and adding twenty now would make it eighty.

A favorability of eighty was already very good.

As long as he didn't treat him as an enemy, it would be fine.

By the way, what exactly did Black want to do at that time?

Hearing Ron say that Black showed a ferocious smile when he saw him there.

Ferocious... this might be because Black had been locked up for so many years and had become ugly.

The description was a bit exaggerated.

But there must have been a smile.

Could it be that Black felt he had entered Gryffindor again?
