"You believe what I've heard? He's always been very wary of me."
Since I used truth serum on him and mind control on him, how could he possibly respect me?
He only respected my status as a professor at Hogwarts. Last year, he got into a fight with me, didn't you know?
Darren Porter almost killed me in his office because of my mission to sow discord with the Dark Lord.
Fortunately, I had anticipated this and took Felix Felicis, otherwise you would be seeing my corpse right now!
"Then why didn't you get there before the Dark Lord summoned the Death Eaters?"
"I think I've told the Dark Lord many times that the Dark Lord's mark has been burning hot for a long time. I only did this to gain Dumbledore's trust, otherwise I would have run away long ago."
If I arrive more than two hours late, Dumbledore will assume that I went to find the Dark Lord on his orders.
"And the Dark Lord, by using my identity, can learn even more secrets about Dumbledore."
"That's not right either. If you're so loyal, why didn't you participate in this dangerous mission? I'm risking my life in silence..."
"Life in danger? Sorry, I think only Darren Porter is in danger, but the Dark Lord has already limited his power."
"If you had just followed my instructions, you would have been able to get the crystal ball, but you can't even do such a simple thing right!"
Snape said dismissively.
“A small matter? Darren Porter’s strength was limited, but he’s still very strong… He knocked Lucius unconscious in one move… Which of us hasn’t been beaten up by him since?”
"I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do. I've already stayed behind as the Dark Lord requested."
I tried to deliver the message to the Order of the Phoenix very late, and you guys...
Moreover, I think that if you hadn't let Darren Porter accidentally fall into that curtain, you might have been able to get the crystal ball.
"It's obvious you pushed Potter too far, making him think Darren Potter was dead, so he smashed the prophecy ball!"
How would I know that Darren Porter would go to rescue Sirius Black?
It was all an accident. I thought he was so strong that even if he pushed Harry Potter and Sirius away, he would still have the strength to get up. Who knew he would actually fall?
I really don't understand, even so, why does the Dark Lord still plan to win over that boy?
Bellatrix said angrily.
"The Dark Lord went back and punished all of us who were on the mission."
Then the Dark Lord discovered a problem: Lucius, during Harry Potter's second year, gave him his most precious... If you ask me, Lucius was...
"Shut up!"
Narcissa shouted.
Then she looked at Snape pleadingly and said, "Please, please help Draco, he's just a child... Why is the Dark Lord punishing Lucius by making Draco do this?"
Snape looked at Narcissa and said hesitantly, "This is the Dark Lord's plan. I can help Draco, but I can't help you persuade the Dark Lord to change his mind. That's impossible!"
Narcissa burst into tears.
“I only have one son, Severus, please help me. Lucius only has one son too… He’s still in Azkaban, and the Dark Lord won’t rescue him… Draco too…”
"Draco would be honored. If I had a son, I would make sure he carried out the Dark Lord's mission even better, even if it cost me his life!"
Bellatrix said excitedly.
“No, Draco is only sixteen, he’s too young… Severus, please…”
Narcissa knelt on the ground, took Snape's hand, and tears fell onto it.
“I can try, I mean, I can try to help him…”
Snape said softly.
Narcissa perked up and pressed her advantage, saying, "Then can we make an unbreakable vow?"
Snape stopped.
Bellatrix scoffed, "See, Cici, begging him won't do you any good!"
"can!"
"Snape said suddenly," Bella said, stunned.
Snape said again, "Yes, I will help Draco, and I will swear an unbreakable oath to you, with... with Bella as my witness!"

Chapter 618 Darren Appears!!
Just as Snape froze.
A boy suddenly appeared on the streets of London. The boy looked extremely handsome.
His face wore a helpless expression. It was Darren.
He muttered to himself, "Why is it at night? It should be broad daylight. It would be more interesting to smash someone up, apologize, and gain some 'saintly points'!"
However, he immediately abandoned the idea.
Because he discovered that several signal sources were appearing on his body.
Snape, Dumbledore, or even others all placed these things for him. Wherever he appeared, they would quickly ascertain his location.
These signals are constantly being transmitted outwards.
He realized that Dumbledore and his companions should be arriving soon.
[System, create fake wounds for me. Recreate the wounds you created before.]
[Ding, 1000 Holy Father Points have been deducted. Forgery successful.]
Darren found himself as if a layer of gray fog had been shrouded in his vision.
This is normal. After all, if you want to fake something that is invisible, but still make it actually visible, there must be some strange changes.
Darren sensed Dumbledore's presence drawing ever closer. His expression immediately turned one of confusion and worry.
He pretended not to see, groping aimlessly in front of him as if searching for something to hold onto.
This almost made Dumbledore, who had just arrived, tear up.
"Darren!"
Dumbledore strode over and grabbed Darren's shoulder. Darren seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
He smiled and said, "Headmaster Dumbledore, I'm fine, I'm just under a spell and can't see... By the way, how is my brother?"
"I just fell into the curtain. I thought I was going to die, but I'm here now, seemingly unharmed."
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[Ding...] Uh...
Darren was stunned by the sudden influx of people.
Seeing that almost all of the Phoenix Order's combat personnel had arrived, he was astonished; the Phoenix Order's efficiency was simply incredible.
However, outwardly he appeared increasingly worried after Dumbledore did not answer.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore.
He anxiously felt for Dumbledore's wrist and asked urgently, "Headmaster Dumbledore, are my brother and Sirius alright?"
I remember many members of the Order of the Phoenix came. Are they all doing well? It's all because I was too weak that things turned out this way.
This wouldn't have happened otherwise. I should have stopped my brother. I've caused trouble for everyone.
Headmaster Dumbledore, you can rest assured that if anything happens to anyone, I will take full responsibility!
And my brother...

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[bite……]
"Oh, everyone's alright, but everyone's worried about you... Darren, you've been missing for a month. If your portrait in the Ministry of Magic hadn't remained unawakened, everyone would probably have held a funeral for you."
Dumbledore chuckled softly.
His voice carried a hint of laughter, but his expression was serious. He looked at Darren's wounds with almost painful intensity.
The wounds were still bleeding, and the children said that Darren's wounds had been like this ever since he rescued Harry and the others from the centaurs.
He also had the poison Voldemort had in his body.
Although it wasn't a highly toxic substance, it was enough to incapacitate him. But the child still struggled to stand.
"My child, I'm so glad you're back."
Dumbledore sighed softly.
