Chapter 242 Big Gamble on Righteousness and Evil

When Harry saw the news of Black being arrested in the newspaper, he stopped breathing. He stared at the photo of Fudge and Black above, as if several knives were cutting in his heart.

"How could he—" Hermione pointed to the photo in the newspaper in surprise, Sirius in the Daily Prophet was so haggard, and he lost all energy.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, we've clearly—" Ron was eating something, but when he saw the report in the "Daily Prophet", the thing in his mouth fell directly on the table, and Hermione gave her a disdainful look.

"But he got caught!" Harry threw the newspaper on the table, scratching at his hair irritably.

"I don't think you are reading the newspaper, Potter?" Snape appeared behind the three of Harry with his greasy black hair on his head, and shook their heads viciously. "Now, you poor Potions teachers, I hope you can put more effort into the potions in front of you. And you, Weasley, stop eating. Don't you see how fat you are? Ten points from Gryffindor and snacks in class."

Ron chewed heavily and complained in a low voice, "Aren't Goyle and Crabbe in Slytherin fatter?"

"Trust me, you don't want to become like that." Hermione felt a little speechless.

Harry lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly, but both Hermione and Ron knew that he was in a bad mood. They had just rescued Black a few days ago, and they were still excited about it when they suddenly received such news.

Afterwards, Hera's life became extremely easy. Until the end of the semester, there were no accidents. However, this made Hera feel a little boring. After all, no matter how you look at it, if there is another fugitive like Black, his small coffers will definitely be full.

Unfortunately, he never met the fugitive again.

Instead, I met the former hero-Peter Pettigrew, and besides that, there was a familiar figure-Voldemort.

It's just that this Voldemort looked far more fragile than what he had seen before, he seemed completely incapable of taking care of himself, he was just a baby.

Though Hera had never seen anything less baby-like than he was.It has no hair, has scales on its body, and its skin is dark and red, like wounded tender flesh.Its arms and legs were thin and limp, and its face, such as no child ever had, was a flat serpentine face with sparkling red eyes.

The thing, it threw its thin arms around Wormtail's neck, and Wormtail held him in his arms, and Hera could see the disgusted expression on Wormtail's pale, feeble face.

"Lord Dark Lord, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your state really worries me." Hera took a deep breath and used Occlumency to hide her expression of fear and panic in her heart.

"I want to have a meal. I'm exhausted from the journey." His voice was cold and chilly.

Hera took half a step back, bent her body, "Of course, Your Highness." After speaking, she snapped her fingers, "Kreacher, you will be in charge of Lord Dark Lord's daily life."

"Very well, Hera, even though you didn't look for me, I know you will never forget me. This damned Wormtail has never been able to take good care of me. He is as rude as a stupid wild dog." Voldemort's voice was filled with joy, and at the same time, Hera let out a long sigh of relief.

As long as Voldemort isn't out to seek revenge, everything will be fine.

It's just that the plan to spend a sweet time with Penello in Black's old mansion for a vacation looks like it's going to be ruined.

The next development didn't disturb Hera's life very much, because Voldemort and Wormtail just came to contact him, took Kreacher away, and then left in a hurry-they didn't dare to stay around Beauxbaton for too long, lest the half-blood giantess notice them.

Hera just explained a little why he didn't go looking for Voldemort. Of course, using Dumbledore and Nick Flamel as an excuse, instead of getting criticism from Voldemort, he got his praise.

"Hera, you have always reassured me so much. You have successfully gained the old man's trust." Voldemort clapped his ugly hand on Hera's shoulder, and he seemed very happy.

Hera hung her head, trying to resist the urge to shake off that dirty paw.

"I thought that Nick Flamel would recreate the Philosopher's Stone, so that you could make a comeback, but I found that he had no intention of living and destroyed all the information about the Philosopher's Stone. I failed." Hera said Finally, deliberately pretending to be very regretful and remorseful, successfully won Voldemort's trust.

"I know what you think, you've done a great job, you've done a very good job." Even so, his voice still revealed a chill, "You're already much better than Wormtail, and now I have a new idea, a very old magic that can help me recast my body."

"Can you make a comeback?"

"Of course. Voldemort will not forget the followers who have worked hard for him, Hera, I have always been very optimistic about you."

"It is my honor to contribute my insignificant strength to the adults." Hera bowed her head and knelt on one knee, only thinking about dealing with Voldemort first.

Voldemort left, taking Wormtail and Kreacher with him.

Hera returned to the office, frowning tightly together. He really didn't expect Voldemort to have a physical body again, and he seemed to be in good condition.

He didn't know how he should face Voldemort, or even if he should continue to side with Dumbledore.

One side is justice, and one side may be his own father; one side is the powerful White Demon King, but he always has doubts about himself, and the other side is the resurrected Dark Lord, who may be his biological father.

Hera sat in a chair thinking all night, and finally made up her mind.

Maybe it's time to gamble
Hera took the quill pen and drew a cross on Dumbledore's name, so strong that it almost slipped the parchment.

"I'm sorry, Dumbledore, it seems that we are destined to be different." Hera raised her collar to make herself look more energetic. "I'm sorry, Remus, it seems that we are going to stand on opposite sides."

But Hera learned a shocking news not long after: Remus was fired because of his status as a werewolf.

But the person who was most shocked was definitely not Hera, but Luke who was also a werewolf.

He was panicked, very panicked!
