Chapter 779

~6 min read 1,039 words

So even if the wizarding world has soul healing arts, they will absolutely not be spread out.

Because they are afraid of being caught by others and becoming someone else's medical kit.

For this reason, he and Dumbledore cast Confundus Charms on those children overnight, so that they wouldn't remember the events of that day unless someone reminded them.

Even Hagrid, because he heard their words and felt that his mouth probably couldn't keep a secret, took the initiative to ask for his memory to be erased.

As for Darren, they did nothing after discussing it.

When Darren was healing the unicorn, it was clearly a whim, and he didn't even understand it himself.

That led to the unicorn being saved, but it was only alive.

A true soul healer would help the injured person fully recover, or stop automatically when their mental power collapsed.

Darren clearly didn't know how to use it.

That's why he could just fall asleep exhausted in the situation where this unicorn was nearly dead.

Ordinary healers, encountering this situation, either the unicorn is completely well, or they die themselves.

So it's best if they don't wake Darren up; if he understands, maybe next time he'll really lose his life...

774

On the day the exams ended.

Snape found Harry Potter and the others acting strangely.

He also heard these people telling McGonagall that he was going to steal the Sorcerer's Stone.

Ridiculous, truly ridiculous!

What would he want that thing for?

But this also reminded him that Quirrell might very well want to go in and steal the Sorcerer's Stone.

So he considered it in his office for a while and decided to go find Dumbledore.

This is a play arranged by Dumbledore; Dumbledore should know what to do himself.

So after coming out of his office, he headed to the London Ministry of Magic.

At the Ministry of Magic, he saw Dumbledore, who was chatting happily with people, without any sign of anxiety.

Snape laughed sarcastically.

Is the Savior cultivation plan for him to be here chatting with people, while letting the Savior worry in school?

Because of his arrival, Dumbledore chose to stop the conversation and decided to leave with him.

But Dumbledore wasn't in a hurry at all, and even visited an old friend on the way, dragging it out until late at night.

When they walked into Hogwarts, they saw the hurried know-it-all Miss Granger.

"Headmaster... it's bad, Professor Snape is stealing the Sorcerer's Stone..."

Miss Granger's face became very interesting the moment she saw him.

"Ah, it seems Miss Granger likes to wrong professors very much. Gryffindor, twenty points deducted!"

Snape laughed maliciously.

"Then, Miss Granger, tell me, what is the matter?"

He asked with schadenfreude.

See, having wronged him for a whole year, now knowing it wasn't him who did it, this expression is truly amusing.

"...It's like this, Headmaster... Professor Snape, we cracked all the traps together."

"And now Harry has entered the innermost room, Darren is waiting outside, I ran the fastest and came over first... inside is You-Know-Who..."

"Then why didn't you say so just now?"

Snape shouted angrily, his black robes flying as he hurried toward the fourth floor.

These reckless brats!

And Harry Potter, daring to face that person alone, is he tired of living?

Wasting the life Lily left behind! Truly worthy of being Potter's spawn!

"Oh, Severus, you are too slow like this, come with me..."

Dumbledore stopped Snape, summoned Fawkes, and they arrived together in the room under the fourth-floor corridor.

Once inside, Snape almost collapsed and backed out.

Two children...

Two of them lying there with pale faces, motionless. Are they both dead?

"Severus... it's okay, listen to me, they are fine..."

Dumbledore comforted him, and then sent the two children to the hospital wing. Snape chased after him.

He heard Madam Pomfrey say: "Cruciatus Curse, God, are you trying to take this child's life?"

Cruciatus Curse?

How could it be? Who is it? Who was subjected to the Cruciatus Curse?

"Severus, it's Darren..."

Dumbledore looked at him with a pained heart.

Snape suddenly felt like a clown.

"Idiot!"

"He is just an idiot!"

Snape roared.

Dumbledore's face was equally pale.

But he still tried his best to cheer up and said: "Alright Severus, I noticed Darren has already been fed a potion. It seems we have to comply with the arrangement of time."

"The arrangement of time?"

So it was a Time-Turner.

Didn't expect the Headmaster to use such a trick too.

No wonder he wasn't in a hurry at all in the afternoon.

"Turn it back two hours, hmm, that's it!"

Time turned back to twelve o'clock at night.

Snape hurriedly wanted to go grab Darren and forbid him from going there, but Dumbledore stopped him.

"Severus, we cannot change the ending. All of this is something that has already happened; no one can play with time..."

Snape looked at Dumbledore's serious face, and he covered his face in silence.

He knew.

After Lily died, he wanted to use this method, but after trying a few times, he understood that history cannot be changed.

Everything you do will become history.

No one can play tricks in front of time.

Just like he couldn't develop a Polyjuice Potion that could maintain a person's appearance for a long time.

And he couldn't persuade Lily to leave that place.

Even because of the Fidelius Charm, he couldn't find Lily.

This is truly a sad fact.

Because of Dumbledore's insistence, they entered the room hiding the Sorcerer's Stone in advance.

There was clearly no one here yet.

Only a mirror.

The Mirror of Erised.

"You wouldn't just be doing this to let the Dark Lord find the mirror, would you?"

Snape said sarcastically.

Dumbledore smiled, stroked his beard, and said: "The Sorcerer's Stone is in the mirror; only those who want to get it but don't want to use it to do anything can get it."

Snape stood in front of the mirror.

He watched himself in the mirror suddenly smile at him, then take a stone out of his pocket, and then put it back into his pocket.

Then, a Sorcerer's Stone really appeared in his pocket.

"Boring trick!"
