Professor The Vampire Earl of Hogwarts

"Mr. Dracula...is he in this room?" Lucius asked in a low voice, looking at the waiter next to him with wide eyes.

"Mr. Dracula is in this compartment, Mr. Malfoy." The waiter smiled.

Lucius swallowed, raised his hand a few times to try to knock on the door, then put it down again.He still can't believe that this door will really be opened one day, and that he has the opportunity to step into this door...

"Come in, Lucius."

At this time, Dracula's unique mellow voice came from the door, and the dazzlingly luxurious door also opened.

Lucius breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the door, and walked lightly into the compartment.

Although as the current head of the Malfoy family, Lucius thought he had seen many big scenes, but when he entered this compartment, he still took a deep breath and couldn't help but look around a few times.

"Tell me, is there anything important that you asked me to meet?"

Dracula took a sip of what was in the crystal glass, like wine exuding a golden-red luster, and smiled in satisfaction.

However, Lucius was still in shock at this time, as if he was deaf, he didn't hear Dracula's words.

He hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help being curious, and asked, "Mr. Dracula, why are you here?"

"Huh?" Dracula put down his glass, turned to look at Lucius, "Mr. Malfoy, if my memory is not wrong... Didn't you stay after this school board meeting to hide the truth from other people?" Did the school manager invite me to meet at Bai Feilong Bar?"

"No, no, I mean, why are you in this compartment?" Lucius said hastily, "I heard that this door has never been opened for more than 100 years..."

"Because this compartment was originally reserved for me." Dracula picked up his glass again and leaned comfortably on the soft cushion, "Do you have any questions?"

At this time, Lucius was calm on the surface, but there were already huge waves in his heart.

As far as he knows, this luxurious compartment has a history of at least a hundred years. If it is because of Dracula in front of him that the door has not been opened for more than 100 years, then this man who looks like he will never be over 30 years old, How old is he?

Thinking of this, Lucius completely lowered his mind, lowered his head and replied:

"No more questions, Mr. Dracula."

"In this case, it's time to tell me what's important." Dracula refilled a glass of wine for himself, without any intention of giving Lucius another glass, "What's the matter? Can I say it directly at the school board meeting?"

Lucius carefully placed the cane by his side, looked around, and found that the compartment was quite tightly sealed, so he lowered his voice and said:

"Mr. Dracula, the Dark Lord is back!"

The wine glass that Dracula raised to his lips paused for a moment, then he chuckled and put the glass down.

"How could you think of telling me such secret news?" he laughed.

"You don't look surprised at all?" Lucius said with a dazed expression.He'd expected Dracula to be at least slightly taken aback.

"I have known this news for a long time." Dracula looked at the Dark Mark looming on Lucius' left arm, and said casually, "Fenrir Greyback, fellow Death Eater, you should know This werewolf, right?"

"He is a werewolf who took refuge in the Dark Lord during the last wizarding war." Lucius' identity was exposed by Dracula, and his expression was a little unnatural, "But he is not a Death Eater at all, just a black man." It’s just a tool used by the Demon King. Could it be that this idiot has already spread the news?”

Lucius felt a little depressed.If Dracula already knew the news of the Dark Lord's return, the value of his further information would be greatly reduced.

"No, he didn't spread the news." Dracula said, "The werewolf got the infernal body made by Voldemort and was sent to trouble me. But now that he has been arrested, I can easily Just found the news from his memory."

"But the information Fenrir got must not be comprehensive enough." Lucius gritted his teeth and said further, "He was sent out by the Dark Lord to carry out a mission a few months ago, and the latest information will definitely not exist. in his memory."

It turned out that Lucius really wanted to be a wall-riding faction like before, jumping from the wall to whichever side had a better situation.

But after coming to the Bai Feilong bar today, he saw the luxurious cubicle reserved for Dracula by the proud proprietress for hundreds of years. This incident really shocked Lucius a lot.

So he thought that Dracula deserved more information from him.

"Well... it's normal that the werewolf information is not comprehensive enough." Dracula nodded, looking into Lucius' gray eyes with deep eyes, "but those are not important, what I'm more curious about is... why did you Want to tell me about Voldemort?"

"Is it because you got tired of being a Death Eater, did something wrong, and fell out of favor in front of Voldemort? Or is it because your Malfoy family is used to being a fool, and you want to find a few more backup routes?"

Cold sweat dripped down Lucius' forehead.

"Mr. Dracula, I don't mean to be a fool..." he said forcefully, "It's just that I did something wrong, and I can't get along with the Dark Lord's team. I just wanted to guard against the Ministry of Magic's inspection , took out an extremely important black magic equipment of the Dark Lord."

"The Dark Lord is extremely dissatisfied with me, and seems to have the possibility of obliterating me at any time. And in my impression, I can only think that you have the ability to fight Voldemort. So I came to you immediately."

"Extremely important black magic equipment?"

Originally, Dracula was not interested in Lucius' defense, but when he heard this sentence, he became interested instantly.

If the black magic equipment that Lucius shot was really something that Voldemort valued very much, it might be another of his Horcruxes!

Knowing that Regulus stole the Horcrux, Dracula has seen from it that Voldemort doesn't seem to pay as much attention to the secret of his eternal life as ordinary people imagine.

Otherwise, the Horcrux will never leave the body, or it should be hidden in a place where no one can find it.

But Slytherin's locket was found out by a house elf, which indirectly let Regulus, a subordinate, know the location of the Horcrux.

While there were reasons for Voldemort's overconfidence, there were also factors that he didn't pay the highest attention to.

So Dracula guessed that there must be more than one Horcrux made by Voldemort!

From this point of view, if Lucius lost a Horcrux and was not killed by Voldemort, it can roughly prove that Voldemort has more than one Horcrux.

"What kind of black magic equipment did you use?" Dracula asked Lucius with great interest.

"Eh..." Lucius froze on the spot, "Is this important? The main reason is that when the Ministry of Magic made a surprise inspection, there were not a lot of black magic supplies in my house, and there were too many things sold at that time. I can't remember exactly what it was…”

"And the Dark Lord...he didn't even ask me what I lost, as if he already knew..."

"Okay, I see." Dracula nodded, "The next time we meet, count the black magic supplies you sold, and it's best to make a list and give it to me."

"But... It's been half a year since this incident, and I've almost forgotten about those things..." Lucius' face was a bit bitter.

"Some things are not forgotten at all, but are deeply pressed in your mind." Dracula's expression was rather malicious, "Make a choice, I will use Legilimency to help you. Dig out the memory, or do you think carefully and make a list for me?"

"To tell you the truth, Mr. Dracula, I seem to suddenly remember what I have shot at that time!" Lucius changed his expression instantly, and said righteously, "For your career, even if you rack your brains, I will I will also search for those black magic supplies for you!"

"Hey, there's no need to put on a show in front of me." Dracula sneered, "Well, as compensation for providing this information, you can just be your fool."

"Mr. Dracula, you don't need to test me like this." Lucius stood up abruptly, poked his cane heavily on the ground, and continued to speak righteously, "How can I, Lucius Malfoy, be the kind of leader?" What about people with two ends of rats and treacherous people. I am sworn to death with the Dark Lord!" "Okay, Lucius." Seeing Lucius' flamboyant expression, Dracula raised the corners of his mouth, "In that case, help me Go assassinate Voldemort, and the wizarding world will remember your righteous deed."

Lucius' expression froze on his face.

"You...you really know how to joke, Mr. Dracula." He sat back on the sofa in embarrassment.

"Okay, don't play those silly things with me." Dracula sat upright, resting his elbows on the luxurious tabletop, crossing his hands under his chin, staring straight into Lucius' eyes, "Lu Xiu Well, what I need is just a fool."

"You continue to follow Voldemort, you just need to tell me a few words about the situation there every time there is a school board meeting. It shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

For Dracula, a surrendered Lucius Malfoy was of no use to him—

He didn't lack such a weak combat power, nor did he lack the wealth of the Malfoy family who thought they were rich.He just lacked an insider who could regularly report to him about Voldemort's movements.

A [-]-year-old boy riding on the top of the wall just met his needs.

At this time Lucius was also ecstatic, he thought he would choose a side today, but who knew that Dracula would allow him to continue to be such a fool that no one would look down on!

"There is such a good thing..." Lucius blurted out, and then he realized that he was wrong, and quickly changed his words, "...Ah no, I mean, I am happy to help you, Mr. Dracula."

After getting Dracula's promise, Lucius carefully recounted what happened to each Death Eater recently——

It turned out that on a certain day when the Hogwarts students' summer vacation had just begun, all the Death Eaters with the Dark Mark tattooed on their left arms felt strange waves coming from their arms one after another.

They all quietly found a place where there was no one else, and peeked at the mark on their arms—the original light red Dark Devil's Mark gradually turned scarlet, and as time passed, the scarlet color gradually changed to a scorched black color.

Seeing such a situation, some people felt flustered and terrified, some felt confused and at a loss, and some felt a burst of ecstasy.

But all former Death Eaters know one thing—

The Dark Lord is back!

Due to the terrifying deterrent power of the Dark Lord, no matter what state of mind they are in regarding the return of the Lord, all the Death Eaters who are still active in the British magical world apparated one after another and rushed to Little Hangleton and Riddle where Voldemort was. family cemetery.

Among them are Alecto Carlo, Amycus Carlo, Antonin Dolokhov, August Rookwood and many others who escaped from the Argentine War in the wizard war more than ten years ago. The wizards imprisoned by Zkaban, Severus Snape and Lucius Malfoy are on the list!

Voldemort successfully bluffed everyone with his body generated from the bones of old Tom Riddle, or even if he only had an incomplete body, he was stronger than all Death Eaters!

Facing the army of Death Eaters who were still not small after more than ten years, no matter whether they were sincere or not, Voldemort expressed to them that he was very pleased.

As for why he was eager to show up before he had recovered his full strength, it was actually because he was worried that the former Death Eaters would be gradually divided and eaten away by Dumbledore and Dracula.

In fact, what Voldemort was worried about was never the strongest wizard Dumbledore, but the Count Dracula of the vampire family!

Voldemort knew that Dracula did not have a solid moral bottom line like Dumbledore. If he wholeheartedly wanted to weaken the power of the Death Eaters, he would probably use all means to persecute, threaten, or even kill the Death Eaters. Vitality.

This will have a great impact on Voldemort, who has not appeared for more than ten years.

So Voldemort appeared, summoned his Death Eaters, and told them personally - "I am immortal, no one can kill me, and all of you don't even think about getting out of my control!"

At the same time, he also reaffirmed his idea of ​​pure blood supremacy, so that this group of wizards who want to gain more benefits for their family can see the future of pure blood in their dreams from his words!

And Voldemort's words of ruthlessness and piety were also extremely effective. Many vacillating wizards extinguished their thoughts of turning to the Ministry of Magic or Dumbledore, but returned to the arms of the Death Eaters again.

After all they all thought that Dumbledore was old and Voldemort was immortal!

Lucius originally wanted to restore his once glorious status as a Death Eater, and to seize the benefits of the pure-blood society for the Malfoy family.

It wasn't until Voldemort praised Snape's undercover Hogwarts contribution that he severely reprimanded him for losing his important things-Lucius even suffered a painful blow on the first day Voldemort announced his return. The Cruciatus Curse of the Bone Marrow.

For this reason, Lucius changed.

He knew he had fallen out of favor among the Death Eaters, and that he had no future in going any further.

However, in Lucius' heart, Dumbledore, the only one who can fight against Voldemort, will not make dirty deals with him.

So he thought of Dracula.

Having seen Dracula's attack at that school board meeting, and heard his son Draco's praise of the professor, Lucius realized through his eyes that Dracula's strength is definitely not weak!

In his opinion, even if Dracula lost to great wizards like Voldemort and Dumbledore, he would not be far behind them.Most importantly, this Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has a relatively flexible moral bottom line, which is in line with his cooperation needs.

So he took advantage of the school board meeting before the start of school to invite Dracula to the Bai Feilong Bar on Knockturn Alley, hoping to discuss cooperation matters in such a confidential place.

When Lucius came to the White Dragon Bar and saw Dracula sitting in the closed cubicle for a hundred years, he thought of the parchment in Dracula's hand that could expel members of the school board——

Lucius suddenly realized that Dracula's identity might be much more complicated and profound than he imagined!

……

"Interesting." After listening to Lucius' narration, Dracula raised the corners of his mouth with great interest, "I was thinking, when Voldemort summons you with the Dark Mark next time... I will follow you to Apparate directly , How about disposing of his new body?"

Lucius was shocked.

"Mr. Dracula, please don't!" He hurriedly dissuaded, "Even if you can defeat the Dark Lord, as long as you don't kill him completely, he will suspect me the next time he returns!"

"I hope you will spare my life for the sake of my information for you..."

"Okay, it seems that we won't be able to bully him for a while." Dracula curled his lips and said a little boringly, "You can go, remember to send me the list of the black magic equipment you bought .”

"Definitely!" Lucius wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and hurriedly left the luxurious compartment.

Talking to a person who said "bullying the Dark Lord" is a bit stressful...

After Lucius left, Dracula added another glass of red wine to himself, but he suddenly lost his interest in drinking.

"School is about to start, why haven't I found a tool... um... a teaching assistant..." Dracula collapsed on the soft sofa, and looked out the window with some worry.

Through the crystal window, he looked at the unscrupulous wizards and various dark creatures in the narrow streets of Knockturn Alley.

"Huh?" Dracula suddenly snorted.

He saw a thin figure wearing round glasses.
