Ron stood in front of the tree and asked anxiously.
This made Hermione roll her eyes.
Are you a wizard or not?
She raised her wand, then pointed it at a branch on the ground and cried out, "Yugadim Leviosa!"
The branch flew up and, at Hermione's command, jabbed at the scar on the Whomping Willow.
The man who had hit Liu suddenly stopped moving.
It revealed the large hole underneath.
"How about I go down alone?"
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
Darren suddenly asked.
But Hermione and the others stopped him.
"Don't be silly, we can't let you go in alone... Put on the invisibility cloak, we can't let them see you."
Hermione threw Harry's Invisibility Cloak over.
She was clearly extremely nervous.
But I still tried my best to calm myself down.
"Then, let's go!"
Ron nudged Darren.
Darren sighed.
Then he was the first to crawl into the big hole below.
He sensed Hermione was right behind him.
The passageway was already somewhat narrow when they were in third grade, and now it's so narrow that they have to bend over to walk through it.
Hermione made her wand emit a faint light, and they struggled forward following that light.
Finally, they saw a glimmer of light that did not belong to Hermione's wand.
The light gradually grew larger.
Hermione immediately extinguished the light from her wand.
The passageway here is even narrower.
They had to crawl in.
Until they came across a box.
The box blocked the exit.
Instead of moving the box, they lay on top of it, luring through the gap between the box and the wall to spy on Voldemort's movements.
Of course, this is not easy.
Most of the time, they could only hear Snape's voice.
"Master, their resistance is crumbling..."
Snape's voice was filled with joy.
Hermione and the others glanced at Darren furtively.
They worried that he wouldn't be able to accept Snape's smug and boastful words behind his back.
But Darren didn't say anything; he just lay there, listening with a frown.
At that moment, Voldemort interrupted Snape.
"You did nothing to deserve this. Yes, Snape, you are a skilled wizard, but you are of no use now!"
Voldemort spoke in a loud and clear voice.
Hermione and the others felt a chill run down their spines.
Judging from these words, it seems Voldemort really wants to kill Snape.
Darren guessed right, but why?
Snape must have noticed it too.
He said anxiously, "Master, I'm still useful. I can still bring those two boys over. I can..."
"Enough, enough! Snape, I've put up with you for too long. I hate it when my bloodline treats you like a father figure!"
Hermione and Ron stared wide-eyed.
They both looked at Darren at the same time.
It seems they want him to say that it has nothing to do with him.
But when they looked at Darren, they saw the sadness in Harry's eyes.
Darren seemed stunned as well.
He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing. He even took a slight step back as he looked at them.
Harry tried to touch him, but Darren shrank back.
His face was filled with self-loathing.
Inside the room, Snape continued to argue, "I don't know why Darren Porter would treat me this way. I was just following my master's orders..."
"Enough, Snape. The Dark Lord did have you take care of Darren for a while, but that doesn't stop him from hating you."
"Of course, you are a very useful wizard. If the Dark Lord hadn't encountered a problem, he wouldn't have attacked you now..."
Voldemort raised his wand. He waved it.
Snape was tied up.
He said softly, "You see, I used this Elder Wand, and I thought I could unleash even greater power."
But no, it's no different from an ordinary wand. It doesn't deserve this name. I thought about it for a long time..."
Snape interrupted Voldemort.
"Master, I'll go find those two boys first..."
"No, no, no, Severus, don't you understand?"
I retrieved the Elder Wand from Dumbledore's grave... and I believe it is exactly the same as my previous wand!
"Master, I can capture those two boys for you; I'm very confident I can..."
“Severus, you don’t understand them as well as I do. Whether it’s Harry Potter or Darren, they would come to me on their own initiative.”
Neither of them would want someone to die in front of them, so they would take the initiative.
Snape's face was pale.
Voldemort laughed.
"Ignore them. I called you back because I remembered something: the Elder Wand only obeys the commands of its master..."
"It's a pity, I originally intended to hand you over to Darren Porter so that my bloodline could take revenge, but unfortunately... it's a great pity."
"Owner……"
Snape pleaded. He quietly raised his wand.
But it didn't work.
Voldemort knocked his wand away.
Then Voldemort commanded Nagini to entangle Snape.
Snape struggled to his feet.
Voldemort shouted in his Parsleyan voice, "Kill!"
Nagini bit Snape's neck.
Voldemort chuckled easily.
Nagini slid off Snape.
Voldemort took Nagini and walked outside, saying softly as he went, "Tonight, after the Dark Lord kills Harry Potter and completely defeats Darren Potter..."
The Dark Lord will declare that Darren Porter's bloodline has only one path: to submit to the Dark Lord.
He left his husband.
Hermione and Ron looked at Darren in horror…
