Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

Foley Manor, Mike hasn't been here since the last Christmas dinner.

But obviously Uncle Mario is an extremely nostalgic person. Compared with the last time, the Foley Manor has not changed except for some Christmas decorations.

But just as Mike followed Uncle Mario out of the fireplace room, a pink figure flashed in front of Mike's eyes and plunged into Uncle Mario's arms.

Mike took a closer look, only to realize that it was a girl in a pink dress.

I saw that the girl had dark hair, and the outline of her face looked very similar to Abbott. At the moment, she was hugging Uncle Mario's waist, rubbing her head against his chest and saying in a whistling voice:

"Papa! You're finally back! Did you bring me what I want?"

Mario, who was held by his daughter, looked a little embarrassed. He looked at Mike with a blank face, and patted the back of the girl in his arms with an embarrassing smile and said:

"Alyssa, let me go first, there are still guests here."

Hearing that, the girl named Alyssa turned her head to look at Mike, and after finding that Mike indeed had a face that was completely unfamiliar to her, a blush swept across her face at a very fast speed. It slowed down a little when it spread to the neck.

Immediately afterwards, Aliza bounced off Mario's body as if she had been electrocuted, and disappeared into the next room.

"Uh, that's my daughter, Alyssa Foley." Mario said, covering his face in embarrassment.

"Well, I heard Abbott say that she is a lively girl."

Uncle Mario looked a little anxious. He did not continue with Mike's topic, but pointed to another room and said:

"It should be a while before lunch time, why don't we have some tea first?"

Hearing that, Mike's brows furrowed. Of course, he was so anxious to talk to him about what Mario was, but Mario's state at the moment was too abnormal.

It stands to reason that even if the patriarch of a family has a very hot personality, he should not show that eager expression.

But the matter has come to this point, and Mike has not delved into it.

Then the two took off their thin coats under the service of the servants and entered a slightly dark study room.

With the departure of the servant, Mario sitting on the sofa could no longer restrain his anxiety, and asked impatiently:

"Mike, tell me, I'm very interested in what you think."

"I think I made it very clear before, Uncle Foley." Mike raised his legs, "We just need to preserve our strength, there is no need to flee the country, Dumbledore is not a vegetarian, I I'm sure he'll get rid of Voldemort, but Voldemort will definitely make him pay a pretty heavy price. And then..."

Mike snapped his fingers,

"It's time for us to come out and reap the fruits of victory!"

McNa's strange voice echoed in the study because he was in the period of voice change, but upon hearing this, Uncle Mario's face showed a hint of disappointment.

He sighed lightly, then shook his head and said:

"Mike, your thinking is still too naive."

It seemed that he was afraid that what he said was too sharp to cause Mike's disgust,

Uncle Mario then said:

"I'm not saying your idea is a bad idea. In fact, if your plan goes well, we can get the most out of it. But...you underestimate Voldemort."

After that, Mario stopped deliberately and looked at Mike.

It was not until Mike raised his hand to signal him to continue, he continued:

"You haven't been through that special period, so you don't have a clear idea of ​​how terrifying Voldemort is. But what I can tell you is that people fear him largely not because of his strength, but because of his power. Because of his cruelty, and his ability to manipulate people! (Mario sighs)

In fact, to be honest, even in the period when Voldemort was rampant, I wasn't too afraid of him, because he was still alone! Although he has transformed himself into a human being through various vicious biological experiments, he is still a human being. And as long as it is a human, there will be a lifespan limit, as long as the lifespan is up, no matter how powerful he is, he will die! "

"But it's different now," Mario leaned back on the sofa, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, "he came back to life! This broke my cognition, you know? If he really mastered some kind of ability to defeat death, then..."

"So, you're afraid only because you're worried that Voldemort can't be killed, right? But, do you know why Voldemort can be resurrected?"

Mike's icy words made Mario stunned for a moment. He looked at Mike again, but saw that Mike had already waved his wand.

With the waving of the blackthorn wand, a large piece of light and dust appeared, forming four Horcruxes, including the Hufflepuff Gold Cup, in mid-air.

"This is……"

"The Horcrux."

"The Horcrux? You mean these are his Horcruxes? How could one person have so many Horcruxes!" Mike's words made Mario Teng sit up from the sofa. As the patriarch of a huge pure-blood family, Naturally, he has also studied black magic in depth, and has also been exposed to the relevant knowledge of Horcrux.

However, what Mike told him still shocked him.

However, Mario is the patriarch of the Foley family after all, and he quickly reacted after the initial shock.

The reason why he was afraid of Voldemort before was because he was afraid of Voldemort's mysterious resurrection method.

After all, who wouldn't be afraid of an undead enemy?

But now it's different. If the truth is true as Mike said, Voldemort's resurrection actually relies on things like Horcruxes.

Then things are much simpler, as long as these Horcruxes are found and all destroyed, Voldemort will lose his skin even if he doesn't die!

Mario rubbed his hands excitedly and kept walking back and forth in the room, while Mike smiled and drank tea silently.

After a long time, Mario settled in front of Mike and said:

"Is that all there is to it?"

"Of course not, we speculate that in addition to the four here, there should be three more."

"why?"

"Because 7 is a magical number, according to our investigation, Voldemort believed in this set." Mike got up and said, "And at present, I have destroyed three Horcruxes, and the remaining four Horcruxes , I'm also confident that I can find and destroy them. (Mike looks at Mario) Now, do you still think Voldemort is invincible?"

Mario on the opposite side has regained his composure at this moment. He lowered his head and pondered. After a long time, he said with a smile:

"Mike, I have to say, you really convinced me. We can work together on this vote, but at the same time, I also have to prepare for immigration to the coal country. Please don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just... "

"No need to explain, Uncle Foley, I understand your approach very well. At the same time, I will also actively prepare to retreat, maybe we can meet in Coal Country."

"It couldn't be better, it's a pleasure working together!"

The two hands were clasped together in mid-air, and Mike and Mario looked at each other and smiled.

The original serious atmosphere in the study was gone. Uncle Mario with a smile on his face was lying on the sofa without any image and said:

"You told me that, and you spent so much time pulling me in. There must be something I need to do. Tell me, you're welcome, as long as it is within my power, I will do it for you."

"As expected of Uncle Foley, just simply." Mike smiled, "I need you to help us find a Horcrux (Mike pointed to the pendant box), we have been looking for Slytherin's pendant box for a long time, but there is still no news. ."

"Got it, I'll send someone to look for it. Anything else?"

"Of course," Mike said, "the second thing, I need you to help me keep an eye on the rest of the holy pure-blood nobles and the news of Chris's family."

Mario looked at Mike suspiciously, waiting for his explanation, and Mike continued:

"On the night of Voldemort's resurrection, besides me and Voldemort, there were a third group of people at the scene, all of them wearing masks that concealed magic, so I don't know what they looked like.

But the strange thing is that they seemed to be targeting Voldemort at first, but when they found out that I was there, they immediately changed their target and launched an attack on me. "

"Do you suspect that they were sent by the families from whom you killed the patriarch?"

"Yes, be careful, it's better to keep an eye on them."

"Understood, I will send someone to investigate. So now..." Uncle Mario applauded, "Since the business is over, let's go to dinner!"

After that, Mario took Mike out of the study.

The place for lunch was in the restaurant where Mike went last time. When Mike and Mario arrived, the long table was already full of dishes.

The long table used for today's meal is a long banquet table with a length of 5 meters and a width of 2 meters. Mike doesn't really like to eat on this kind of table. Compared to him, he prefers to sit on the sofa and eat cheeseburgers.

But Mike also knew that this kind of long table was originally used for formal banquets and socializing. Uncle Mario chose to dine here because he valued himself, so he did not refuse, and sat directly in the next seat of Mario. down.

It is worth mentioning that the Alyssa, who was hiding in the room and refused to come out, was also forcibly called out by his father and arranged to be opposite Mike.

The girl obviously hadn't recovered from the embarrassment just now. She kept her head down and ate, and didn't even dare to look at Mike.

Mario seemed to have the intention of bringing the two together, and during the banquet he kept bringing the topic to his daughter.

It's a pity that Mike is not interested in that Alyssa, and there is almost no communication between the two except for the ceremonial conversation at the normal banquet.

And it wasn't until the banquet was about to end that Mike remembered another thing.

"By the way, what about Abbot?"

Mike looked at the somewhat empty restaurant and asked.

When the girl opposite heard Abbott's name, she raised her head and glanced at Mike, and then lowered her head quickly.

"That stinky boy from Abbott went on a mission." Mario said angrily.

"He's still an Auror?"

"That's right!" Mario hammered the table. "I told him to quit his job at the Ministry of Magic with me, but he just wouldn't listen!"

"It's really not good, if it used to be okay to say, but now - Aurors are not a good job. Uncle Foley, you need to hurry up and get Abbott to resign."

"Of course I know that, but that stinky boy..."

Mike's words seemed to speak to Mario's heart, and then he dragged Mike to complain about Abbott's rebellious behavior for a long time, until Mike began to look down at his watch before he gave up.

The lunch lasted a little longer this time, and when Mike left Foley Manor the sun had moved from east to west.

At the same time, in a ghostly cemetery, Voldemort in a silk robe stared blankly at a brand-new tomb that had been dug up. Behind him, a dozen people wearing masks Wizard in black robe.

Barty Crouch Jr. - A true Death Eater.

This is the inscription on the tombstone of the new grave.

Taking a deep breath, Voldemort took out a wand, bent down, and gently placed it in the pit.

This is Barty Jr.'s wand. In order to resurrect Voldemort, he chose to sacrifice everything he had, and this wand was his only relic.

The tomb closed automatically, and Voldemort's expressionless face slowly turned hideous.

An invisible chill emanated from Voldemort as the center, and the Death Eaters behind him felt the chilling aura, and they all covered their left wrist, where the mark of the Black Demon was engraved. .

Slowly, Voldemort turned his head.

Those cold, emotionless eyes swept over the Death Eaters.

And all those who were swept by his line of sight trembled.

"In my opinion, all of you can't compare to one of his fingers!" echoed Voldemort's characteristic hoarse voice, "Oh, look at your appearance, trembling like a fear the chick..."

"You're in fear (the volume suddenly goes up)! That's right (the volume goes down again)! All I need is your fear, for all of you swaying weeds! And only fear can make you feel good about me. Awe!"

"Go, you bastards. Go get my most loyal servants out of Azkaban, go and get back the fleeing traitor Wormtail! Go and bring those two damn boys to me! Go and take Check out those damn masked people! Go! Go!"

Along with Voldemort's hysterical roar, the Death Eaters were in a panic, and they disappeared into the cemetery in black mist.

Suddenly, only Voldemort was left in the crowded cemetery.

"Swish!"

There was a screeching sound, and I saw a giant python slowly crawling from the grass in the distance to Voldemort's feet, rubbing his big head affectionately against his legs.

Voldemort touched the smooth scales of the giant python, turned around expressionlessly, lowered his head, and continued to silently look at the tomb that belonged to Barty Jr.

If this scene is seen by others, their jaws will be shocked.

Because the so-called cruel and ruthless Voldemort seemed to be in silence at the moment.
