HP in the name of Slytherin

Chapter 37 Lion and Snake Cooperation

Dumbledore is a respectable, sober and powerful wizard. Catherine does not have the mentality of fighting for power in the general sense...like Voldemort who calls others to do big things in the name of "Slytherin", she has no such thoughts.

But she knows that desire is a beast hidden in the human heart, and no mortal can be exempted from it. She only transferred her desire to being recognized by her father, so that she seemed not to be moved by external things.

Looking at it this way, she was pretending to be miserable and had to reveal the worst assumptions to Dumbledore. It was really a bit aggressive.

Catherine coughed lightly and then said: "The isolation and scarcity of pure blood makes each family attach great importance to their heirs, especially heirs. Excellent and powerful heirs may in turn control the family."

"So starting from this year, I will only be the prefect in Slytherin."

Dumbledore saw Catherine's softened attitude...perhaps Catherine felt that making this overbearing request was punishment for his plot.

I don’t know who will be the final winner in this game, but since the goals are the same, why bother arguing with teammates about who wins.

Dumbledore calmed down his complicated thoughts and asked: "So what you did today was to establish your authority? Use Gryffindor and Potter."

Catherine didn't hesitate to talk about him and said frankly: "Yes at this stage."

"Then?" Dumbledore looked at her with only calmness in his eyes, without any doubt or coercion.

"Within one year, I will be the leader of the first grade of Slytherin, and next year, I will continue to lead the new first grade. Counting upwards, the big family that openly pledges allegiance to Voldemort, Malfoy is about to graduate, and Black has a Sirius, after Narcissa graduates, I will replace Voldemort's influence in Slytherin."

"This is your plan, not a prophecy."

"Of course, plans mean uncertainty," Catherine rubbed her chin. "There is a high probability that Voldemort will do what I just said and find ways to seduce me, win me over, make me work for him, and finally marry him. This It is the development direction that is most beneficial to him.”

In this way, Catherine has at least 6 years to accumulate strength. If she wants to change him, or if she can't, she will have enough time to backhand him.

Even if Voldemort is not rational enough to see through her thoughts, it is impossible to kill her directly. After all, she is the most orthodox descendant of Slytherin... The most he can do is lock her up. For the sake of her blood and magic, she will " "Die for love" on the way to endless offspring.

Dumbledore, fully aware of the cruelty of Catherine's view of the situation, promised: "I will put a protective spell on you and bring you back to Hogwarts no matter what."

"So there's no need to think about so many things that haven't happened, just do it, right?"

The situation could not be worse than the current situation, and Catherine was no innocent lily.

She was even faintly excited, which was the dark competitiveness of Slytherin.

How interesting is the struggle of human nature!

Regarding her state, Dumbledore could only say: "I think Tom will most likely enjoy competing with you."

Catherine covered her lips and smiled: "It's a pity that I won't be able to go with him."

From the moment she appeared, the future was almost doomed: the world does not need a "Slytherin" other than Voldemort, let alone a third "Slytherin" besides his own children - if Catherine were Voldemort, she would do this .

Dumbledore shook his head and said, "No, I think the biggest thing you and I have in common is that it prevents you from ever traveling with Tom."

"Huh?" Catherine looked curious.

"It is our love for Hogwarts and our willingness to equally admit all young wizards, protect and train them, and then allow them to freely choose their own lives," Dumbledore said. "Obviously, this is something that Tom cannot understand and cannot accept. of."

Apparently, Catherine is also a "little wizard" now.

Catherine looked at Dumbledore, straightened her hair awkwardly, and whispered, "You were worried that I would use Gryffindor to pave the way for me."

Dumbledore looked at Catherine with his blue eyes and said trustingly: "You will be able to balance it well, right?"

Catherine took a breath and said forcefully: "I don't like moral kidnapping!"

Dumbledore only looked at her gently and said softly: "I'm sorry, Miss Catherine."

"I am doing this for the sake of my family's reputation. I am the heir of Slytherin." Catherine's voice gradually became softer.

In order to bond with her father, Catherine knew from the beginning that she would protect the entire Hogwarts at all costs.

Thousands of years later, this is the place that retains the most traces of her father. The ghosts living here even remember some things about her.

Dumbledore looked at this young-looking girl. She had the same gray hair as him, and even her eyes were dyed gray-blue.

In book records, Salazar and his descendants have deep-rooted black hair.

She paid a huge price to travel through time and space. Dumbledore knew some inside stories, but unfortunately there were some things that Catherine could only do by herself.

"I just hope," Dumbledore lowered his eyes and took the initiative to give up looking at Catherine, "when you implement your plan, consider... consider the students from other houses a little bit, and don't be too harsh on them."

"People always make mistakes, but school is the place to correct them," Catherine could only say. "You can provoke me, but you can't bring harm to my father. You can be hostile to someone in Slytherin, but you can't spread it to the entire Slytherin family. Slytherin."

"I think any house should be like this. Don't raise the whole house if there is a problem. After this time, I will also let the first years of Slytherin know that if there is a conflict, find someone to resolve it, and don't form cliques to expand hostility."

Every wrong has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Don't always think about the founder and the institute. Isn't this also a profound prejudice?

Dumbledore thought for a moment and agreed with Catherine's statement.

"So, for this matter, everyone except you will be deducted 10 points?"

There were 9 fainted little wizards, 4 Slytherins, and 5 Gryffindors. Looking at it this way, Gryffindor was definitely worse off.

Catherine shook her head, "Except for Potter, everyone else in Gryffindor is a little stupid at most, so let's just deduct 5 points each..."

Strictly speaking, Blake gave priority to rescuing his friends at that time, rather than acting on impulse, which was considered very rational.

His only fault was that he was not proficient in using magic.

No matter how you calculate it, Slytherin will suffer a big loss.

Dumbledore pushed up his glasses and said, "Then do as you say."

In this way, Slytherin deducted 40 points, Gryffindor deducted 30 points, and Slytherin's first graders were immediately shocked today.

Oh, the only plus point was the half-breed Snape who they looked down upon, what an interesting coincidence.

"Please announce this over dinner," said Catherine, "so that I can clear up today's troubles after dinner."

Including Slytherin's senior year, maybe there will be some additional gains

"For Miss Slytherin's decisive action to prevent more students from being injured, I think we can add 15 points to Slytherin?" Dumbledore asked, "No Slytherin will think that you deliberately let it go, right?" ?”

Dumbledore's original intention was to give Catherine more say in handling Slytherin affairs at night, but to be honest, the Slytherin snakes had too many thoughts on their minds, and sometimes he was not sure.

Catherine's eyes moved very smartly, as if she remembered something interesting, and she accepted Dumbledore's kindness and said, "Just do it like this, it doesn't matter."

Seeing her like this, Dumbledore could only sigh: "I really look forward to the day when the four houses can get along harmoniously."

Catherine said seriously: "I'm looking forward to it too."

The bigger and more precious the reward, the more twists and turns the journey must take... This is what makes it interesting.
