HP: Embrace the Darkness

After confirming that Phoenix had left, Asseth walked out of the darkness.

He was still covered with the Disillusionment Charm, and Lockhart couldn't see him, looking for a way out like a headless fly.

Aces first came to the dying basilisk.

When the phoenix came for the first time just now, it blinded the basilisk's eyes and brought Harry Gryffindor's sword.

Harry swung the sword around, not knowing what to do, and stabbed the basilisk in the jaw.

It's just that he was unlucky and didn't hit the fatal spot. In the end, he was thrown heavily to the ground by the basilisk.

After getting rid of Harry, the basilisk felt uncomfortable. The sword Voldemort was stuck in his jaw and he kept his mouth closed, blood dripping down the hilt.

Arces came for nothing else but his blood and his venom...and maybe his teeth.

The basilisk is now no different from a great gift in the eyes of Asseth.

With a wave of his hand, he knocked out the panicked Lockhart, and Artes took out a glass bottle to collect the basilisk's blood and venom.

Because he was afraid that the phoenix would bring Dumbledore back, Artes moved very quickly, and he pocketed bottle after bottle of blood and venom.

While collecting, the basilisk seemed to feel someone in front of it and opened its eyelids with difficulty.

As a Slytherin, Artes had no ill feelings toward the basilisk. He saw it opening its eyes and caressed its eyelids.

Unexpectedly, the basilisk followed the touch and stared at Asseth with its blind eyes.

The snake's head moved slowly, and Asses stopped to watch what it wanted to do.

The basilisk moved very slowly and lightly. It closed its blind eyes and gently rubbed Ass's hand with its eyes.

\u0027 So comfortable \u0027

A childish voice suddenly appeared in Asseth's mind.

A trace of surprise flashed in Athe's eyes, and he gently stroked the basilisk like he was rubbing Estella.

At this time, the basilisk was like a child, obediently following Ass's movements without even daring to move its eyelids.

Looking at the basilisk with its eyes closed and enjoying the caress, Asseth thought for a while and used a sound transmission spell to send a message.

\u0027 Hello, can you understand me? \u0027

The basilisk's eyelids trembled slightly and it made a "hissing" sound.

But when this voice reached Asseth's mind, it sounded like a childish voice.

\u0027 Human being, I can understand what you are saying. I feel so much pain, oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo[wns, I am so hungry! \u0027

The tone was full of grievances, like a bullied child coming to its parents and crying.

Aces pondered for a moment and asked using a voice transmission spell:

\u0027 Will you leave here with me? \u0027

\u0027 Woohoo, burp, can I leave? The master told me to listen to his descendants, but you are not his descendants. \u0027

The basilisk's eyelids trembled even more, as if trying to suppress his emotions.

The movements of Asseth's hands were more gentle, and the green light symbolizing vitality appeared on the fingertips, caressing the basilisk's eyelids, soothing its pain.

\u0027 But he didn't tell you not to listen to me, right? \u0027

He coaxed softly.

\u0027 Follow me, you won't be hungry, you won't be in pain, I will be with you. \u0027

Such words were too tempting for the basilisk, which had been hungry all year round. It no longer hesitated and opened its eyes eagerly.

He looked at Asseth with blank eyes.

Aces chuckled: \u0027 Can it be made smaller? \u0027

\u0027 The sword is still there, I can’t change, so it hurts \u0027

Aces raised his eyebrows and suddenly reached out to hold the hilt of the sword through his sleeve.

With a raise of his arm, the sword of Gryffindor was drawn out, and blood flowed from the sword.

Aces raised his eyes, magic power pouring out.

The blood stopped in mid-air and turned into a blood-colored water column and flowed into the glass bottle.

The sword was pulled out, and the basilisk relaxed a lot. It raised its head with difficulty, and its figure became smaller and smaller during the struggle.

Aces didn't stop until it was small enough to be picked up with his hands.

After the basilisk became small, it was not as ferocious as it was when it was big. Instead, it looked a little pitiful.

The snake's head swayed in pain, and its entire body curled up into a ball.

Aces first carefully put away the small bottle that collected the venom and blood in his hand, and then picked up the little basilisk curled up on the ground.

The little basilisk hooked Ass's arm with its tail affectionately, and the whole snake pressed tightly against Ass.

Asseth looked at the little basilisk thoughtfully, the missing threads in his mind gradually connected, and a guess emerged.

But the current situation is not the time to delve into it, so we can only let it go temporarily.

Holding the little basilisk in one hand, Artes walked up to the sleeping Lockhart.

With a crisp snap of his fingers, Lockhart opened his eyes, eyes dull.

Staring blankly at Asseth's fingers.

With another snap of his fingers, Lockhart stood up and walked towards Ron. He picked up Ron's wand and waved it hard.

Magic flowed down the broken wand and exploded at the break.

The wand fell apart in an instant, and the debris flew out, scratching Ron and Harry who were lying on the ground. Lockhart flew out with Lockhart in hand.

This accident caused Asseth to glance at the two of them, without any emotion in his eyes.

After confirming that the scene was almost the same, Asses waved his hand and released the two people from control.

A vague wailing sound sounded, and Asseth walked calmly, holding the basilisk and leaving the secret room alone.

After leaving the secret room, Asseth did not lift the Illusion Curse. Instead, he superimposed several layers of the Illusion Curse just in case.

Avoiding everyone along the way, Asseth returned to the dormitory with the little basilisk in his arms, and walked into the alchemy box without stopping.

When he arrived at the alchemy box, Artes finally let down his guard. He touched the Disguise Charm and wanted to put down the basilisk, which was almost unconscious.

But the basilisk's tail was curled very tightly, and it didn't loosen even after losing consciousness, tightly wrapping around Asseth.

Asses was afraid of hurting it again, so he had no choice but to give up.

It was inconvenient to have a basilisk hanging on his hand, so Asseth hesitated for a moment before calling out to the little basilisk in a low voice.

Seeing that it was no use, Asseth patted its head again.

He forcefully woke up the sleeping little basilisk.

\u0027 What's wrong? Humanity. \u0027

The little basilisk yawned reservedly, and the snake's head rubbed against Asseth intimately.

"Is the injury on your body okay? I have never treated a basilisk, so I woke you up to ask."

The little basilisk shook its head.

\u0027 It doesn't matter, it won't hurt if I'm close to you. \u0027

The head of the little basilisk came over again, and the snake's body snaked up Ass's arm, and finally wrapped around Ass's shoulder.

Aces frowned, picked up seven inches of it, and pulled it completely off his body.

"The arms are OK, but no further up. If you can't do it I'll send you back."

The little basilisk was a little anxious after leaving Asseth. Hearing his words, he nodded hurriedly, even opened his dull eyes, and blinked obediently.

Its eager and well-behaved performance made Asses even more certain of one thing.

\u0027 Humans, hug, hug, I won’t climb up anymore, I’m just on the arm. \u0027

When the little basilisk saw that Asseth hadn't put it back yet, it was so anxious that it spat out the message with all its might, its immature voice full of urgency.

Aces raised his hand to smash one sleeve and put the little basilisk on his arm.

The little basilisk instantly looked like a dog after seeing a meat bun, tightly wrapped around it, its tail curled up in comfort.
