HP: Embrace the Darkness

Aces shook his head and said no, he didn't know much.

"If I knew, I would definitely tell you, but maybe it would be more interesting this way? Find out a secret yourself."

"Is not it?"

The twins were convinced by Asseth's statement, and he quickly tried again with great interest.

Fred came first. He thought that opening the door required a spell, so this time he kept mumbling in his mouth to open the door, open the door, and open the door.

The walls didn't respond.

George pushed past Fred and jumped back and forth three times. He thought action was needed.

Still no response.

Fred walked around tangledly, thinking non-stop. Suddenly his stomach rang, and involuntarily, he sighed that it would be nice if there was something to eat in it.

As soon as Fred's idea came to him, the walls shifted.

The three of them watched in shock as a smooth door slowly emerged from the wall.

"Merlin's beard is really amazing."

The twins said in unison.

Aces urged the two to hurry up, he was worried that the door would disappear.

He took the lead and walked into the door, turned sideways, and held the wand in his hand without any trace.

The three of them walked into the door. Inside the door was a kitchen with a variety of food.

Artes was a little confused. Carter came to a kitchen every day to practice black magic?

Just when Artes was confused, Fred behind him suddenly became excited.

"Hey, I just thought I was hungry?"

After listening to Fred's words, Artes suddenly understood that it was a need.

Fred thought about food when he was hungry. He needed food, so the door he opened was the kitchen door.

Asseth made no move to solve the mystery. Now is not the time to unravel Carter's secret.

The twins are still there, and...the man outside.

While Asseth was thinking, the twins had already started eating and drinking.

According to them, they had not eaten well tonight and had been thinking about tonight's night trip, so now they were so hungry that they could eat a cow.

Asses gave up struggling countless times tonight because of the twins' helplessness. He really couldn't expect the two lions to be vigilant.

I don't know how to make sure the food is okay first. If the Potions Master were here, he might spray venom all over his face.

Amused by his own thoughts, he shook his head and laughed. He raised his hand and cast a checking spell on the food. After carefully checking that there was nothing wrong, he began to eat supper elegantly.

The food in the house was plentiful and the three of them feasted on it.

After eating, Artes remembered something and regretfully said to Fred and George,

"My magic power is not enough. We may not be able to become invisible."

Ace lowered his head in frustration.

The twins didn't care whether they could become invisible or not, and patted Asseth on the shoulder.

"Then I can only let you see it."

"Our night tour technology is over."

The two of them put their arms around each other and asked Asseth to go back quickly, as they had to go to class tomorrow.

The three of them left the strange room, but there was still no one outside. Asseth narrowed his eyes slightly and calmly felt the magic around him.

It's still there, just enough to dispel some doubts.

Aces thought.

This time without the Illusion Curse, the three of them seemed much more careful.

Especially the twins, they carefully observed their surroundings and guided Asseth skillfully through the spiral staircases.

The Gryffindor common room and the Slytherin common room are not in the same place, so they are separated at the corner.

After separating from the twins, Asseth did not go back to the lounge immediately, but turned towards the astronomy tower.

When he came out, he noticed that Elise also quietly left the lounge. If he saw correctly, Elise should have gone to the astronomy tower.

Aces walked alone on the road, feeling the surge of magic around him as he walked.

On the astronomy tower, the cold moonlight shone down and shrouded Elise's thin and frail body, making her look particularly desolate. The dim environment made it difficult for Asseth to see the expression on her face.

Asseth deliberately stepped harder, and the sound of footsteps immediately caught Elise's attention, and she quickly turned back.

"Who?"

"it's me."

Aces spoke up in time, and Elise saw that he had relaxed her guard, and turned back to look at the lonely night sky.

Asseth walked to Elise and stood side by side with her. Following Elise's line of sight, Asses saw a star.

Neither of them made a sound, looking at the starry sky in silence.

Aces took the opportunity to feel the magic around him, and he wanted to make sure that the audience was present.

Very good, the actors are on point and the audience is on point.

Elise was the first to speak to break the silence: "How did you know I was here."

"I saw it by chance while on a night trip."

"What are you doing here?"

"Nothing. I'm just curious about what you want to do."

Hearing this, Elise suddenly turned her head and looked at Asseth, her eyes filled with pure envy.

Elise suddenly spoke:

"You know what? I actually really envy you."

"You have a beautiful family and parents who love you."

"You have family to rely on and you can do what you want."

"You don't have to work hard to survive, and you don't have to worry every day about whether you can survive until tomorrow."

"You can look down on the person who provokes you from a high position, because you know that there is someone behind you to protect you."

"Your parents may even have the idea of ​​letting you be the governor of Hogwarts because they are afraid that you will be wronged."

"How enviable!"

Elise was a little choked when she spoke. After speaking, she turned her head away, not daring to look at Artes's reaction.

She knew it wasn't his fault. He was very nice, didn't covet her, and was even willing to believe in herself, but she just couldn't control her envy.

She didn't want to tell Asseth these words. She had endured them for a long time, and she felt that she could endure them forever.

Maybe it was because the starry sky tonight was too dim and the astronomy tower was too quiet, which made her unable to control her emotions.

She is indeed not worthy of Asseth's trust. Elise thought in despair.

Aces looked at the girl next to him silently. He didn't expect that she would think like this.

What happened to the school director was probably because he didn't avoid Elise when he read the letter last time, so she saw it.

Asseth sighed and looked at Elise with gentle eyes, not disgusted with her words.

He had forgotten that she was still an eleven-year-old child.

These days, he was paying attention to Carter's situation and did not pay attention to what happened to Elise.

Although Elise's desperate approach shocked most of the little snakes, Carter and the others were not simply targeting her. Coupled with Carter's increased strength, this period of time should be very difficult for her.

"Elise, sometimes what the eyes see is not necessarily true."

"You know, no mother doesn't love her child."

Aces reminded him vaguely.

Elise turned her head sharply, her eyes eager. "What do you know! Tell me quickly."
