HP: Embrace the Darkness

Asseth took out a piece of parchment, on which was the oath he had prepared long ago.

"The parchment used for this oath is a special alchemy item for our family, and it has the magic words of oath engraved on it."

"In other words, once you sign, you will form a vow."

"Have you really thought it through?"

"I've figured it out."

Dewar did not hesitate, took the parchment and signed it.

While he was signing, Asses couldn't hold back and asked him what he was thinking just now.

After listening to Asseth's question, Dua, who had always been calm, felt a little embarrassed. He avoided Ass's eyes and said:

"I thought you were like those nobles."

Ok?

Asais didn't react at first, but then he looked at him looking a little embarrassed and suddenly understood something.

His face couldn't help but darken.

Damn it, he knew it, his intuition was always accurate.

Then Asses looked at Dua carefully up and down.

I have to say that Dewar's concerns are very reasonable.

His appearance and temperament are exactly what some proud nobles like to conquer.

But that does not include him, he has no interest in him!

Asais said to him with a sullen face: "You don't have to worry about anything, I'm not interested in you."

Dua nodded: "I'm sorry."

Aces didn't bother to pursue anything, after all, Carter's actions were indeed inappropriate.

Thinking of this, he glanced coldly at Carter who didn't dare to speak.

"You teach him how to do the rest."

After saying that, Asseth stood up, picked up the oath, and left the management office without looking back.

Carter looked at Asseth who was leaving, and then at Dua, who was left behind by Asseth.

Well, sir, he explained clearly that this is a legitimate inspection and he doesn’t need to be nervous.

Later, Carter, who successfully hypnotized himself, explained everything clearly.

And Dua lived up to the expectations of the two. He not only quickly understood the operation of funds, but also drew inferences from one example.

Got started in just one day.

After Dewar took over the responsibility of money management, Carter felt relieved.

Even when he saw Elise in the common room, he didn't feel sulky and was in the mood to smile at her.

Elise looked at Carter, who was smiling everywhere like a flower, with confusion, and didn't understand why he was so angry.

She shook her head and left the common room.

In the days that followed, the funds were managed in an orderly manner by Dewar, and every application was carefully reviewed by him.

His fair and impartial review and approval was also recognized by the young wizards who came to apply.

Just like that, the exam is coming as scheduled and the holidays are coming.

Last year, Assis's score was the first in the grade, and he didn't feel much about the exam.

Auditorium after the exam

"Merlin's manicure, I mixed these two questions together."

"Merlin's dress, I blew up the cauldron in front of the old bat when I was taking the potion test."

"You weren't sent to see Merlin by the old bat?"

"Merlin..."

The auditorium was noisy for a while. The little wizards regretted their mistakes in the exam and wished they could slap their past selves.

On the long Slytherin table, Artes elegantly cut the steak on the table.

Some little snakes couldn't help but squeeze over and ask Assis how he did in the exam.

Aces stopped and looked at the little snakes.

"If there are no accidents, it should be all O's."

As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of silence on the Slytherin table.

"Should I not ask this question?"

The little snake who came over to ask looked blank.

The little snake behind him was also severely hit.

"Ding ding ding."

On the teacher's desk, Professor McGonagall knocked on the cup.

The little wizards quickly fell silent.

"It's our most exciting moment again. Let me guess, everyone should be looking forward to the Academy Cup."

Dumbledore stood up and winked at the young wizard below.

Except for the long table of Slytherin below, the little wizards at other long tables began to excitedly knock the cups on the table, and they were still cheering.

"it is good."

Dumbledore raised his hand and pressed down, and the little wizards became quiet again.

"Now we will announce the Academy Cup."

"Fourth place, Gryffindor, 415 points."

"Third place, Hufflepuff, 450 points."

"Second place, Ravenclaw, 520 points."

"Finally, the first place is Slytherin, with 610 points."

Dumbledore announced the House Cup and waved his wand.

The auditorium was instantly filled with Slytherin's logo.

Suddenly, there was an excited sound of tapping cups on the long Slytherin table.

Two hours later, Hogsmeade train station

"Boom, boom, boom."

Accompanied by the sound of the train starting, the Hogwarts Express diligently carried the little wizards and sent them home.

During this year's holiday, Carter chose to go back to his home, so only Elise was with Asseth.

The two walked out of the platform, and Asseth saw the Duke and Anna waiting.

He stepped forward quickly.

At this time, Anna, who was looking around, also saw him and walked quickly towards Asseth.

Behind him, the Duke followed him depressedly, not seeing his wife at all.

After the mother and son reunited, Anna touched Ass's face distressedly, her voice slightly choked with sobs.

"I'm sorry, Asseth, for worrying you.

Aces put his arms around Anna and patted her back comfortingly.

"Aren't I fine now?"

Ana hugged him back, her voice filled with distress for him.

"It must have been very difficult at that time. It's all my fault for being too impulsive, otherwise I wouldn't have fallen into their trap."

"Mother."

Asseth let go of his hand and looked at Anna seriously.

"this is not your fault."

"Even if they don't get caught this time, they will still find ways to plot against you, so it's them who are wrong."

"You can't blame everything on you."

Anna blinked her eyes and looked at her son who was conscientiously comforting her son, whose childishness had begun to fade away. She suddenly didn't know what to say.

It turned out that her son had become so outstanding in a place she couldn't see.

Asseth didn't understand why Anna suddenly looked at him and became dazed while he was talking.

"Mother?"

Anna came to her senses.

"My son has grown up."

Aces was even more confused. Anna looked at his confused look and burst into laughter.

But even though I have grown up, it is still so interesting.

Ignoring the confused Asseth, Anna turned to look at Elise aside.

"Long time no see, Elise, you are getting more and more beautiful.

Elise lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Madam, you are beautiful."

The Duke couldn't help but darken his face.

Anna smiled, pulled the Duke beside her, and took them home.
