It's Phineas Nigellus Black!

Sirius' great-grandfather.

He was also the first Slytherin to become the headmaster of Hogwarts.

I was once heartbroken because Sirius chose Gryffindor.

It is also gratifying to see my great-grandson return to the right path.

He coughed lightly, signaling his presence to us.

"Hello, Headmaster Black!" We had seen his portrait at Grimmauld Place, so we hurried to greet him.

This is Hogwarts, and there's nothing wrong with calling him the headmaster.

He nodded to us reservedly, but his eyes kept drifting towards Sirius.

Phineas looked arrogant, like a child angry with his parents. He hoped Sirius would bow his head first.

"Great-grandfather..." In the original book, the rebellious Sirius was expelled from the family, but he never gave Phineas a good look.

The man snorted in response: "I criticized Walburga. She was too impulsive. Your portrait on the family tree has been repaired..."

Sirius' mother, Walburga, once burned the portraits of Sirius, his niece Andromeda who married a Muggle, and Alphard who had sponsored Sirius on the family tree.

Sirius naturally knew that Phineas was giving him a way out.

He is no longer the middle school boy who was abandoned by his family and turned to extreme rebellion.

"I will take time to go back and see my mother..."

I winked at Draco and Harry and carefully exited the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, closing the door thoughtfully.

Leave a private space for Blake's family.

"What are you doing sneakily?"

Snape's voice came from above his head.

"Godfather, it's nothing. We just finished class..." I said with a wry smile.

"Godfather, my cousin is chatting with his great-grandfather!"

Draco was a man of few words and he quickly confessed everything.

"Then I'll come back to see him later."

Snape glanced towards the door and turned away.

He has a good relationship with Phineas.

As the youngest Potions professor and Head of Slytherin in history, Phineas held him in high esteem.

Even in the original book, if the iron triangle of Harry, Hermione and Ron showed any disrespect to Snape, Phineas would disappear into the portrait and refuse to provide any help.

Therefore, Snape knew that the person inside was Phineas and chose to avoid him.

"Godfather will go to find my cousin? The sun is rising in the west!" Draco had a gossipy expression on his face.

"It doesn't feel like it was voluntary," Harry also complained.

Perhaps because of Sirius's arrival, Harry became more cheerful.

He would also joke and play with us.

Sirius is the same age as James and is his godfather.

Often share their childhood stories with Harry.

Harry and James's highly similar appearance also made Sirius feel a little empathy.

Both of them found emotional sustenance.

This was something the Malfoys could not provide.

A few days later, we finally understood why Snape came to Sirius - the Dueling Club was established!

In the original book, the incompetent professor Gilderoy Lockhart specially invited Snape to show his strength, but ended up making a fool of himself.

This time, it was Snape who took the initiative?

The terrifying power of the original...

Is it possible that there really is an invisible shackle in the dark that constantly restores order?

I felt a chill down my spine...

If that's the case, then the meaning of my existence is...
