Chapter 147 Late Night Talk
From Snape's observations, William was still playing the role of a normal genius at ease during the first half of his first year.

Snape thought he was a genius, the one-in-a-million kind, but he was more low-key and humble.

People like them are more talented, more patient, and know what they want than their peers.

On the whole, what William did was still within the professor's estimation, and it wasn't too out of the ordinary.

But after a certain day, the whole style of painting leaps forward in a direction similar to "My pain is above yours".

William seems to have raised his standards in various subjects to a certain super high level overnight.

If it weren't for several deep exchanges, Snape found that Stark was still the same shit.

The way of speaking and doing things have not changed... Otherwise, he would almost think that William's soul has changed, and he is possessed by a powerful wizard.

Snape could only attribute it to William's talent.

But as he observed the traces of the battle between William and Tywin, and William resisted a dark wizard in Gringotts and forced the fire dragon, Snape finally felt something was wrong.

This increase in strength is too fast, William is not secretly studying black magic, is he?

He didn't want a Dark Lord to meet another Dark Lord while he was still alive.

Didn't Dumbledore defeat the first-generation Dark Lord when he was a teacher at school, and met the second-generation Dark Lord when he was old.

If so, he took Dumbledore's script.

Hey, Snape suddenly felt that this meant something. Could it be that he wanted to counterattack McGonagall and become the next headmaster?
Just as Snape was thinking wildly, Dumbledore swung his wand, and all the keys flew up again.

He didn't see the key to open the door, so he could only take out a new silver key from his pocket.

"He won't be the third Dark Lord." Dumbledore said calmly, as if explaining what he would have for breakfast tomorrow.

"Why are you so sure?"

"I am fully aware of Voldemort's growth trajectory." Dumbledore signaled Snape to move on.

"The two are completely different, William has a complete family, a lovely sister, and he has a lot of friends.

Voldemort has never had friends, relatives, only servants... He doesn't understand love, but William does, so he won't become the third Dark Lord. "

"Just because of... love?" Snape seriously doubted.

"Isn't that enough?" Dumbledore said with a smile: "Love is not something we invented, it can be seen, it is very powerful, and love has its role..."

"Yeah, of course love has its function. It is used for socializing, maintaining relationships, and raising offspring." Snape sneered: "But does it have anything to do with whether a person will be addicted to power and go astray?"

"Severus, your understanding is too shallow." Dumbledore shook his head, "We also love the dead. Is this place used for the social you said?"

Snape was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "No...yes."

"The meaning of love is far-reaching." Dumbledore said gently: "It is a more powerful power that we can express with magic.

Love leads us to protect, to protect those who have nothing to do with us, love is the only thing we can perceive beyond the latitude of time and space.

We should believe it, even though you may not understand it right now. "

Snape thought for a moment, then asked again: "What about his abnormal increase in power?"

"I know, but I can't tell you for now."

Snape frowned. "You trust him...but not me?"

"It's not a matter of trust or distrust. You and I both know that the man is not dead, and he will make a comeback." Dumbledore patted Snape's broad shoulder.

"And when he comes back, you'll be carrying the burden. I don't want all the secrets to be in one basket, especially one that will be hanging on Voldemort's arm for a lot of time in the future."

"I'm all listening to you!"

"You have done an excellent job, but don't underestimate the danger you will be in in the future, Severus." Dumbledore said seriously: "If he returns again, you will face a Dark Lord who is stronger than ever."

Snape fell silent.

The two continued to walk forward, and finally saw the graffiti on the wall.

Dumbledore looked at the suggestion written by Hermione with a warm smile in his eyes.

"Severus, the students still like you very much. You see, both William and Hermione mentioned you, and the twin brothers also drew Slytherin as a mark."

Snape rolled his eyes, "Did they like that?!"

With a wave of Dumbledore's wand, all the writing on the wall fluttered and flew into the pocket of his pajamas. It seemed that he wanted to save these words in another place.

Dumbledore turned his back on Snape, and sighed in a low voice.

"Severus, I think you can change your attitude a little bit, do you really not care what the students say about you?"

There was another long silence, and then Snape said stiffly, "Over the years... maybe I just got used to it."

Habit and caring are two different things, at least in Dumbledore's eyes.

He sighed, "Severus, if only I could be as strong as you.

You know, sometimes I think our sorting is too sloppy..."

Snape was a little downcast. If he had been assigned to Gryffindor back then, maybe everything would have been different.

"Help Harry, please?" Dumbledore asked.

Snape was angry again, pacing up and down behind Dumbledore.

"How am I going to help him -- as mediocre, arrogant, late, disobedient, showy, attention-grabbing, disrespectful as his father is -- help him more?

I'd rather help that little bastard Stark, at least it will give me a few more years of life. "

"You saw what you expected to see, Severus."

Dumbledore checked the missing devil's net, but there was no intention of re-adding the devil's net.

"Don't be too prejudiced, other teachers said that the boy was humble, easy-going, and talented.

I personally also found him to be a likable kid. "

Dumbledore stood up, looked up through the trap, and saw Lu Wei.

Lu Wei was also peeking at him through the trap door.

A flash of reproach flashed in Dumbledore's eyes, and Lu Wei whined twice, trying to explain that William was not put down by him.

Snape snorted, and said, "I'm going back to sleep, I won't listen to your nagging here.

He can't even compare to half of Granger's, at least she is a little smart, and her IQ is also online..."

"Hermione will be very happy to hear your evaluation."

Dumbledore said without looking back: "One last thing, pay attention to Quirrell, okay?"

Snape's shoes slapped on the ground, and he strode away, not knowing if he heard it.

Dumbledore sighed.
