Professor The Vampire Earl of Hogwarts

Hearing Dumbledore's weak request, Snape remained silent, as if he was brewing some emotion.

He stared at Dumbledore for a moment, the rough lines of his face showing deep disgust and hatred, all of which were expressed in Voldemort's eyes.

Then, Snape raised his wand and pointed it at Dumbledore——

"Avada Kedavra!"

……

The green and white that filled the whole world disappeared.

An ecstatic smile appeared on Voldemort's face, while Dumbledore's eyes widened, and the expression on his face seemed to be one of loneliness, disappointment and disbelief...

But only Snape could see that in the depths of Dumbledore's deep eyes, there was relief, satisfaction and relief that Voldemort could not possibly understand.

Snape's lips trembled, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst into his eyes, forcing himself to recall the deepest and heaviest pain that Voldemort had when he went to Godric's Hollow to kill Lily, not letting any change in the expression of hatred and disgust .

Fortunately, Voldemort fell into boundless ecstasy, and didn't notice Snape's pain at all, and only thought his trembling lips were the joy of revenge.

The flow of time seemed to be extremely slow, and the emotions of the three people present were different, but they all stared at the beam of Kedavra strangely mixed with some blue light, looking at it like a hand stretched forward, Climbing inch by inch towards Dumbledore's heart...

……

Before Voldemort's ecstatic expression fell, suddenly, a blue-black flame rose up around Dumbledore, forming a circle.

If you look down from a high place, you may feel that this circle of blue and black flames looks like a gas stove invented by the Muggle society.

A skinny old man who looked as old as Dumbledore stood between Snape and Dumbledore, facing the death curse mixed with a little blue...

Endless wildness and unruliness burst out of his eyes, and he swung the magic wand in his hand powerfully with movements that were not commensurate with his body shape——

The Killing Curse was suddenly thrown away, and it disappeared into a mess of trees without a sound.

"It's been a long time, Albus..."

The old man who abruptly stopped the killing curse looked at Dumbledore, with a touch of anger and a little relief in his eyes, but more of a nostalgia with no end in sight.

"Gellert..." Dumbledore stared blankly at the figure in front of him, and for the first time there was an unexpected surprise in his eyes, "You...why would you..."

"Why did I come here, right?" Grindelwald smiled lightly and asked softly, "Do you really think my eyes can't see such an important moment?"

Dumbledore was silent for a while, then laughed too.

"I should have thought about it a long time ago. Professor Dracula released you from Nurmengard. That's why." He said, "The only person who can see through my plan is you..."

Immediately, a happy smile appeared on Dumbledore's face, "It's just that why didn't you return to the way you were 50 years ago like in the newspaper?"

"It's just to prevent you, a bad old man, from being too shameless." Grindelwald sneered, "And if I see you in my youth, isn't it just a generation shorter than you?"

Dumbledore shook his head with a smile.

He knew that Grindelwald actually just wanted the two of them to look like the summer a hundred years ago, as harmonious as a pair of close friends who were inseparable at that time.

"You are...Gellert Grindelwald?!" Voldemort's shocked voice sounded beside the two.

Grindelwald turned his head and looked at the ugly snake face without a nose.

"This is the Dark Lord boy you told me in your letter, isn't it?" He ignored Voldemort's intentions and asked Dumbledore instead.

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded slightly.

"You said... the two of us have been fighting for a lifetime, can we also have a chance to fight together?" Grindelwald asked the old man beside him with great interest.

Voldemort was startled suddenly, and his face sank.

Although he is somewhat inflated with his current strength, he has absolutely no confidence in dealing with two great wizards at the same time, especially since these two are still the spiritual leaders who once led an era.

"Severus, let's go!" Voldemort gritted his teeth, and finally chose to retreat.

He flicked the hem of his clothes, and a black mist enveloped Snape's figure, leading him to leave the mountain top full of duel marks.

"You two wait for me! I don't believe how long you two old things from the last century can live!"

"I can wait!"

……

After Voldemort left, Dumbledore seemed to relax completely, and fell weakly to the side.

After all, Voldemort, who had obtained the power of the god of death, had reached a higher level after all, but Dumbledore was already very old, far from the strong body he had when he was young.

He held on to the stalemate with Voldemort to the end, and his strength was almost exhausted.

Grindelwald supported his shoulders beside him, the wild and unruly expression on his face faded, and became very gentle instead.

"Sure enough, you are still the same as before, always trying to take everything on yourself." He said with a chuckle, "How about it, did I delay your plan?"

"Actually, it's half done...at least Severus' actions have completely won Voldemort's trust."

"Tsk, placing an undercover agent is an old trick."

"But as always, it works..."

"Let's not talk about that, do you want to have a drink or two at the cafe we ​​used to go to?"

"I really miss it... Is that one still closed?"

"Closed but I tracked down the owner's descendants and 'kindly' asked him to reopen the cafe."

"Well... let's go then."

"..."

……

At the foot of the mountain on the other side, the Death Eaters who came to attack the current Minister of Magic lost the support of Voldemort, and have been firmly controlled by the Ministry of Magic, which has a huge advantage in strength.

Amelia Bones and the captain of the Auror team were pacing back and forth in front of the bundled Death Eaters, checking the number of Death Eaters.

"It seems that someone is missing." Amelia frowned slowly, "Is Bellatrix Lestrange here?"

Captain Auror was stunned for a moment, and quickly ordered his subordinates to count the list of Death Eaters who participated in the attack, and concluded that Bellatrix was indeed not under the control of the Ministry of Magic.

"Can this situation make her run away?" Amelia glanced at the Aurors present and reprimanded severely, "How did you pass the Auror examination?!"

The Aurors knew they were wrong, and all of them lowered their heads and were scolded silently.

"Ms. Burns, I found the Auror who let Bellatrix Lestrange go." The Auror captain stepped forward and said to Amelia.

"Let him come over!" Amelia said coldly.

Captain Auror waved his hand behind him.

A young Auror walked up to Amelia tremblingly, pinching the hem of his clothes nervously, stammering his tone.

"I remember you, the Auror who has just been employed for one year." Amelia glanced at the young Auror and said coldly, "But being young is not the reason for you to let the Death Eaters go!"

"Let me explain, Lestrange was obviously bound up with a binding spell just now, why did you let her go?"

The young Auror blushed with anxiety and kept shaking his head.

"I...I didn't mean to let her go, someone saved her!" He stammered, "Just now a man who looks a bit like Lestrange suddenly appeared beside me, The Disarming Curse sneaked up on me..."

"Then...then he took this opportunity to take Lestrange away, and when I retrieved the wand, the two had disappeared...I was afraid of punishment from the Ministry, so...so I didn't dare Let me know as soon as possible..."

Hearing the young Auror's explanation, Amelia frowned and looked at Captain Auror.

"A man who looks like Lestrange, is there anyone on the Death Eater's list?" she asked.

"I'm not too sure," Captain Auror shook his head. "I just remember that Bellatrix Lestrange belongs to the Black family... Are there any other members of the Black family who are Death Eaters?"

"It seems to be gone." Amelia said, "In short, if there is nothing wrong with your arm, take half of the Aurors to search around and catch her as soon as possible!"

"It's very likely that there is a very important secret hidden in her body, we can't just let her go..."

……

In a deep mountain, in a dense forest, a handsome young man with black hair ran quickly with a woman who looked somewhat similar to him with a crazy expression on his back, avoiding the detection spells that flew by from time to time.

"You are Regulus?" Bellatrix looked at the black-haired young man in astonishment, her eyes full of disbelief, "You disappeared for so many years, all of us thought you were dead!"

"Actually, I did die." Regulus gasped for a few breaths, and said hastily, "There was an accident, I was submerged in a lake... the Lord Dark Lord found me some time ago , turning me into a thinking ghoul, giving me the chance to serve him again."

Bellatrix stretched out her hand to touch the skin of Regulus' arm in surprise, and she really felt a cold and dark breath.

She immediately believed what Regulus said.

Because in Bella's heart, Voldemort is the only person in this world who can use the necromancy magic of the necromancer with perfect proficiency.

However, Bella still had a question in her mind.

"But why don't you fight with us?" She asked a little angrily, "If we can add your fighting power, maybe there is a chance to turn the situation around!"

"My mission is different from all of you." Regulus shook his head, "I am specially arranged by Lord Dark Lord to protect you!"

"Protect me?" Bella opened her mouth wide, her expression extremely surprised, and her face flushed sickly, "Master, he treats me so well...do you want to send someone to protect me?"

"To be precise, it is to protect the things in your hands." Regulus ruthlessly interrupted her fantasy, and said bluntly, "The Lord Dark Lord should have given you an 'extremely important' thing, am I right?"

The red on Bella's face faded a little, but she was still very excited.

"That's right, the master gave me that 'very important' thing for safekeeping because he trusted me!" She said excitedly, "Even when I was in Azkaban, I kept it Keep it well!"

"Then there's no problem." Regulus said, "We can't let Lord Dark Lord's things go wrong, so we must protect the custodian of that thing!"

Regulus heaved a sigh of relief.

Some time ago, Dracula brought Lucius over to meet him, and exchanged a wave of information they had.

Regulus discovered that Voldemort had given one of the Horcruxes to Lucius Malfoy for safekeeping...and Lucius, even at his most favored, was not Voldemort's most trusted servant.

He immediately realized that there was probably another Horcrux that Voldemort had also entrusted to his servants for safekeeping.

And that person is likely to be the most trusted by Voldemort from the beginning to the end, and also Regulus' cousin-Bellatrix Lestrange.

So he thought of a way to break into the Death Eaters' camp again, trying to get Bella's words out, so as to get another Horcrux.

It wasn't until today that Regulus finally found the perfect opportunity.

"Just to be on the safe side, let's take out that thing from Lord Dark Lord." Regulus said to Bella, "We need to find a more suitable place to store it to prevent accidents."

"You can tell me where you kept that thing, and I'll go get it back... Now your target is too big, only me, the 'non-existent person', is the least conspicuous."

Although the reasons were very good, Regulus' words still aroused Bellatrix's vigilance.

"I kept it well, why did I take out the owner's things?" She asked loudly, "If something goes wrong during the transfer, wouldn't it be more dangerous!"

"Bella, I followed the Dark Lord's instructions to let you move that thing." Regulus reacted quickly, and immediately made up a reason, "You should know that some time ago, the Dark Lord's thoughts and Harry's · Potter made a connection, and the Dark Lord suspected that Potter sensed the location of that thing..."

"He didn't even tell me that this kind of thing happened!" Bella's vigilance relaxed a little, but she still didn't let go easily, "I must personally pick up what the master gave me!"

Immediately, she looked at Regulus, "Regulus, when I go to take that thing, you must cover me well."

Hearing Bella's plan, Regulus completely relaxed.
