The portrait room of the Prince family is next to the underground magic circle. When Severus was first recognized by the family, it was Emond who personally led him to this place.But now, it was he who stepped here again with a heavy heart.

Standing at the door, Severus took off the black cloak he had forgotten to take off, and handed it to Taran.Then he took a deep breath, and slowly pushed open the heavy black wooden door engraved with Prince's family crest.

This room has existed for over 1000 years.Probably starting from the first generation of Prince ancestors who settled down in the castle, all members of the Prince family who passed away have left a portrait, so that they can watch the descendants gradually grow, show their talents, become powerful, and become Heirs who could bring glory and stability to the family—except Irene Prince, who married a Muggle privately and left the family completely.

On the walls on both sides of the rectangular room were portraits of the Prince family, and some of them even had the potion room as the background, but there was no one in each of the portraits at the moment.Severus walked on suspiciously, and the further he went, the older the portrait became.Walking all the way to the innermost part, a portrait almost the size of the entire wall came to meet him. Only then did Severus know where all the people in the previous portrait had gone.

This painting depicts the living room on the second floor of the castle.About 30 or more of the deceased ancestors of the Prince family came here, either sitting or standing, looking at Severus outside the portrait with a solemn expression that implied relief.He saw his grandfather Emond and his grandmother who had just passed away were also standing close to each other at the very edge. Emond, who had regained his black hair and was much younger, was holding his wife's hand. He was wearing a black wizard robe, his gaze Looking softly at his grandson who is about to grow up.

The middle-aged wizard sitting in the middle is the ancestor of the Prince family, Tyne Prince. That is, he invented the septic venom in his later years, which reversed the Holy See's opposition to a certain extent. The dominant situation in the wizard's war.Both he and the ancestor closest to him had a look of surprise in their eyes when they saw Severus.This kind of expression did not escape Severus, who has exceptionally keen observation skills after the awakening of his bloodline. The black-haired boy temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart in front of the elders of the family, put his right hand on his chest, and bent down to face the elders in the portrait They performed a junior ceremony.

"Yeah." Tyne nodded with satisfaction, and said: "We have seen it in the past few years, Severus, you are a good boy. Now Edmond has also returned to Merlin's arms. In the future, Prince The family depends on | you. From now on, you are the patriarch of the Prince family. Later, you will guard the magic circle and activate the magic circle with your own power."

"Okay." Severus' voice-changing period had passed, and the young man's clear and soft voice was like velvet.

"You can awaken your bloodline, which means that you have extremely high talent and good luck. However, you must also know that the higher the ability, the heavier the responsibility." Tyne paused here,

He glanced at his son who was sitting on the side—the ancestor Kevin who activated the greatest energy of the protective magic circle in the history of the family, and although the invention of Youth | Potion did not bring him any reputation in the wizarding world, the entire Prince The family almost changed because of him. "I think that when you activate the protective magic circle, you will know more about the Prince family—even some secrets that we don't even know."

Severus frowned slightly, and Tyne's words made him even more puzzled. Wasn't Prince Castle built in the generation of Prince's ancestor?

"Okay, if you have any questions then, come and ask me." Tyne relaxed and leaned back on the sofa, "Emond, it's your turn."

Edmond saluted Tyne, then turned to look at Severus, "Severus, I don't think you'll worry me too much, do you?"

"Emond..." Although Severus was expressionless, his clenched hands trembled a little.He found that the pain of losing a loved one is really not easy to heal. Even if the portrait of this loved one is in front of him, it can only remind him once again that it is a loved one who can no longer be touched.

"Well, everyone will have such a day. I don't think you are such a cowardly person!" Emond's tone became severe.

Severus took a deep breath and straightened his back.Yes, he cannot disappoint the ancestors.He's a Slytherin, a Prince.What he has to bear is not only his personal glory, but also the entire Prince family.

"Severus," seeing that Severus had calmed down, Edmond and the ancestors behind him eased their expressions, "you can come to us here if you have any questions in the future, don't forget Prynne According to the tradition of the Si family, the field of potions is endless."

"I'll do it," Severus promised earnestly.

"Well. One more thing, Severus..." Edmund coughed, and looked at Severus meaningfully. His wife glanced at her husband knowingly, laughed, and said for her husband The words came out: "Severus, it's like this. When you and Voldemort got engaged last year, he promised us that no matter how many children you have in the future, there will be a child named Prince."

Severus' face flushed red.Having a baby... He hadn't thought about this kind of thing at all... Voldemort actually talked about it with Edmund and the others!

Although he and Tom had...everything that would have happened, but having a baby or something...Merlin's stinky socks that haven't been washed for a thousand years!He's a man too, and making him have a baby is just...

"Severus, Severus," Mrs. Prince smiled wider at seeing Severus blushing in embarrassment.Her grandson was so cute, and that Voldemort was also very handsome. The child they gave birth to would definitely be Merlin's favorite. "We want you two to have a baby soon - after you graduate of course

Rear. "

"Why, why are you in such a hurry? I haven't..." Severus felt that his whole body was on fire. How could these ancestors, who seemed to come out of the same mold, be so sullen and surly, pay so much attention to a junior's personal problems , even if you are worried about the issue of heirs, it will not be...

Edmund patted his wife's hand and said, "Severus, you have awakened your bloodline, and you are now an ancient druid. You know, the offspring of magical creatures are very difficult. Although the Prince family But we can't guarantee whether the potion suitable for ordinary wizards will work for you. So I hope you can start preparing earlier, and if you really find a problem, you can solve it as soon as possible. After all... Voldemort took blood twice The awakening potions all failed."

Severus' heart sank.Yes, last year and the year before, on Voldemort's birthday, despite all the preparations they could think of, Voldemort failed to awaken his blood.If... it really has been impossible to have children - he doesn't think he will have more than a friendship with anyone else in the future - then there may really be no heirs.

No, he will definitely find a way to awaken Voldemort's bloodline, he doesn't want Voldemort to leave him!

Severus suddenly thought of something, and took out the black wooden box that was placed in the ring, "This is the tooth of some kind of magical creature that I bought at Bokinbok before. I can feel the ancient magical creature from above If you add it to the bloodline awakening potion as a medium, will it increase the success rate?"

Hearing what Severus said, the ancestors became interested, and they all walked to the edge of the canvas, leaned out and looked into the box in Severus' hand.It's just that they couldn't feel the magic fluctuations that Severus said.However, since Severus is an ancient druid, he must not make a mistake in his judgment.You must know that ancient druids can perfectly communicate with the magic elements in nature. As long as there are magic fluctuations in the teeth of this magical creature, it is impossible not to be sensed by Severus.

"You can try it." Tyne said.

Kevin also expressed his point of view: "If the conflict between magic power and medicinal properties can be handled well, this is indeed a good way."

In front of the ancestors, Edmond had the right to speak at the end. At this time, he just nodded to Severus to show his approval and support.

Severus couldn't help but feel proud that his conjecture was recognized by so many ancestors, and he wished he could go to the potion room to conduct improvement experiments right away. Maybe they will be successful on Voldemort's birthday this year!

However, the strange expressions of Tyne and Kevin before made Severus unable to let go of his doubts.After hesitating for a moment, Severus pursed his lips and asked Tyne: "Ancestor Tyne, I noticed just now that you and ancestor Kevin seemed a little surprised to see me?"

At Si's question, Tyne and Kevin exchanged glances, "Severus, we only met you four years ago when you first came back to Prince's house, when you were young and not Obviously. You who are about to become an adult now really surprised us—you are very similar to a friend of ours, no, almost exactly the same."

"His name is Severus too? Severus Snape?" Severus felt something surfacing.

"Yes," it was Kevin who was speaking now, "I met him at Salazar's. He was only seventeen or eighteen years old, about my age. Because we look alike, Godric still I joked that we must be long-lost brothers. Unfortunately, it was a war-torn era. Soon we separated, and it was only after a few years that I learned from Salazar that he had been missing for a long time."

"Although I have only met him once, I can be sure that you both look exactly the same in terms of appearance and body shape. Severus, do you know something from other places? It should not only be his Name?" Tyne looked at the descendant who was also named Severus Snape, and said in a low tone.
