HP Dawn Night

Chapter 240 Coercion and Necessary Resistance

"How is the task I entrusted to you?" The Dark Lord asked while sitting on the "throne".

"In progress, my lord," I replied.

The dark lord's slender fingers slowly stroked the giant snake's head, and my knees ached. "You're not procrastinating, are you... dear Violet?"

My heart clenched: "No, my lord. I can swear to Merlin—"

"——Merlin? Oh, Merlin is not that capable of taking care of everyone." The Dark Lord said grimly. "Since you claim to complete your task wholeheartedly, why have you made no progress for so long?" The giant snake hissed. Sound, it slid down and swam all the way to me, stretching out dangerous snake letters.

"I..." I trembled, tears began to accumulate, "Dumbledore is very cunning...I...I have no way to get close to him."

"You'll have a way of getting close to him, won't you." The Dark Lord grimly refused to accept my excuse, "There are two people in Hogwarts I want to kill - the greatest White Wizard and the savior ..." The Dark Lord's high voice echoed in the empty room, "Harry Potter is mine, and I must end him myself. But Dumbledore doesn't need to be solved by me...but I waited how long For months, there hasn't been a sign of trouble at Hogwarts...I don't want to do that...but I have to wonder if I've chosen the wrong person for this task—" The Dark Lord waved his hand, and the snake wrapped itself around my neck Arm, I froze, I could feel the dangerous snake's head just a hair's breadth away from my throat, and the Dark Lord could kill me in an instant with just the slightest gesture.

"No, my lord, you did not choose the wrong person." I hastily begged the Dark Lord's forgiveness, "I am conceiving one or several plans, and one of them will succeed—"

"Yes, assuming Dumbledore would be foolish enough to allow you to carry out those plans one by one!" The Dark Lord interrupted me loudly, and he laughed cruelly, "Let me show you something, young man People—" He lightly raised his hand, and with a jingle, a bunch of things fell to the ground.

I looked up, and at that moment my blood froze - I won't admit it, it was my mother's favorite necklace, she almost never let it go, but now it was thrown on the ground by the Dark Lord at will, So, what about its owner?I raised my head abruptly, and the dark lord's slender red eyes were full of pleasure and violence:

"17 years ago, under pressure, Watson Sr. made some compromises to me, in order to keep his beloved daughter from harm; 17 years later, her daughter will also compromise with me... Violet? He stared into my eyes and continued with a malicious smile, "Don't worry, your mother is not in my hands. I have to say that she is really a powerful witch, and she managed to escape from my hands—— He drew out grimly, "But we'll catch her sooner or later. You only saw a necklace this time, so you don't want to see something worse next time, do you?" The smile faded from the Dark Lord's face, He looked at me condescendingly, "I know exactly what tricks you are playing, this is the last warning from the Dark Lord!"

Dad poured me a cup of hot tea, and I slumped in my office chair, half an hour after I had been at Slughorn's party, and half an hour later I had terrible news.

"How did he come up with the idea to find her?" I sniffed, trying to hold back my tears. "And who told him I didn't do anything at Hogwarts?"

"The Dark Lord pays a lot of attention to Hogwarts, of course he will know that Hogwarts has been calm recently." Dad sat down opposite me, the atmosphere was very heavy, "he secretly sent to Lestrange Brother, I got the news too late, but luckily your mother had already fled France when I got in touch."

"Where is she going?" I asked.

"She didn't tell me, she just promised to keep in touch. If there is any news, I will let you know." Dad shook his head. "I think Margaret should go north. The Dark Lord can't really spend long Manpower to hunt her down, after all, he needs to concentrate on taking Britain, not to mention your mother is a very powerful witch, even if the Dark Lord goes out personally, she may not be able to catch her without a fight." Dad comforted me, and I couldn't hold back my tears:

"Did I kill her?"

"It's not your fault—" Dad sighed heavily, "Vio, tell me the truth, have you ever thought of telling Dumbledore about the mission the Dark Lord gave you?"

I raised my sleeve and wiped my tears: "Yes. I'm still hesitating... If I tell him, maybe Dumbledore will be willing to protect us..."

"Dumbledore's protection...yeah, that's an interesting idea. So you've decided to take Potter's side, right?"

"A tyrant can't win," I replied. "How many of the Death Eaters were bullied and lured by him? How many were truly loyal to him? They're just a mob..." I suddenly thought What, "Dad, is Draco a Death Eater?"

He froze for a moment, without denying it.

Turns out my assumption was true.The Dark Lord used the Malfoys to threaten Draco to work for him, plus his crazy aunt Bellatrix—"But," I hesitated, "why didn't the Dark Lord brand me? Ra said you traded something with him?"

"Yes, this is a deal," Dad admitted bluntly. "You may not understand my choice. But if there is no mark, you are free. Otherwise, the Dark Lord will have the opportunity to completely control you."

"What sacrifice did you make?"

"You don't need to know." Dad paused and changed the topic, "You can choose whether to tell Dumbledore about your mission, but I can answer you: he can't protect you."

"why?"

"You'll know."

I didn't answer the call for a while. "There is another thing." I clenched my hands, "Do you think that someone around me will betray me? I am reporting my every move to the Dark Lord."

Dad raised his head and gave me a weird look: "You're not talking about Miss Parkinson and Mr. Zabini. I know you and the Greengrass sisters are at odds. Are you suspicious of them?"

"At least Astoria doesn't look like a good person, and I wouldn't be surprised if she served the Dark Lord." I replied coldly, "There are many people in Slytherin who are loyal to the Dark Lord, but more People are neutral, and I must stay away from the former, such as Theodore Nott, and stay close to the latter, such as Millicent Burst, after all, she may be a half-breed."

"Millison is a pure-blood, and Theodore doesn't have such a deep obsession with the Dark Lord. Old Nott is not a particularly fanatical believer." Dad looked at me with complicated eyes, "Your plan It sounds wonderful, Vio, and I'm glad you've started to have such a concrete plan. But I have to remind you to be more careful in choosing your accomplices and more thoughtful in organizing your activities, after all, Montague is in the lead -"

"You know about Montague?" I exclaimed, and for a moment I thought it might be a secret buried between the four of us.

"Of course I knew, but I kept it a secret on the grounds that Montague was on the mend. But you should feel sorry and guilty, and it was your fault all along."

I am speechless.The biggest mistake I ever made at Hogwarts was Montague's accident.

"Leadership is a good thing, but don't be too reckless." Dad looked at the time, "If you have any ideas, go for it, but it's best to let me know before making major decisions."

"I have one request, Dad," I made up my mind, "can you teach me the Unforgivable Curses?"

"How did you come up with this idea?"

"If someone comes to kill me one day, I don't want to just use stun spells and disarm spells to defend myself, what I want is a real counterattack." I insisted, "You said that the war is not far away, so now is the time Taught me how to use a weapon."

Dad only took a moment to think, "Yes." He said yes.
