HP: Embrace the Darkness

When he thought that Artes might be as lazy as Susanna, sleeping with nothing to do until noon, eating as soon as possible, and going back to sleep after eating, Joel's face suddenly turned ugly.

No, for Anna and for Asseth, he couldn't let Susanna be so idle anymore.

Gotta find a way to keep Suzanne busy.

Susanna, who was quietly slandering Joel with Artes, suddenly felt a chill behind her, and a bad premonition came to her heart.

She subconsciously looked at Joel, and met his eyes that looked stern but were actually thinking.

No!

She is already so old, and she still needs to be controlled by Uncle Joel for her words?

Did she break any law?

"Miss Susanna."

As soon as Joel's voice came out, Susanna immediately stood up straight and cautiously tested.

"I'm here! What's the matter? Tell me."

This dog-legged look made Artes couldn't help laughing. Even Joel, who had just tried to find a way to slave Susanna, found it funny and then confused.

What on earth did he do to scare this naughty child like this? He was obviously very good to Susanna.

Susanna was too obsessed with slander just now, and she might not know what Joel wanted her to do.

But Asseth saw clearly as a bystander.

Joel is trying to steal his labor force.

One is worth three.

Without Suzanne, he would have even less time.

"Grandpa Joel, my cousin has been working hard recently, for example, helping me deal with Blake."

Aces thought twice, but still said a good word for Susanna.

"Good nephew."

Susanna's eyes were filled with tears. Her good nephew was better, and it was not in vain that she was so kind to him.

"so what?"

Joel still didn't quite believe that Susanna could be of any help, so just based on his impression of her, it would be fine if she didn't help.

"I can't live without her for the time being, do you think?"

Joel looked at Asseth steadily, and after confirming that he was not joking, he could only nod.

"Since Master Asseth has vouched for you, Miss Susanna, I hope you will not betray this trust."

"Okay, okay, I definitely won't."

Now Susanna also realized what Joel was going to do and nodded hurriedly.

Even Merlin is here today.

She wasn't leaving Hogwarts either.

Especially when the person who might take her is named Joel.

This time it was Asseth's turn to smile meaningfully.

Although Susanna is indeed unreliable sometimes, she is a real double-edged sword, and it is especially sharp. As long as it is used well, this sword can cut many people and protect many people.

He needs someone like this.

"Then thank you, Grandpa Joel." Artes smiled slightly and thanked him.

Joel's status is quite special. It is better to say that he is a housekeeper than an elder. He also respects this elder who looks after Anna. Otherwise, he would not be able to let others mobilize the people around him. It can be said that if it were not for Susanna, someone else might now be able to He had asked Joel to take him away.

"By the way, did anything happen at the auction house yesterday?"

Artes suddenly remembered that he had brought Dumbledore to Grindelwald, and quickly asked Joel while he was in front of him.

Now Joel is in charge of helping him manage the Muller family's property in the UK. He is managing several stores including the auction house, so it's perfect to ask him.

Joel thought for a while, "There is a rather special thing. Albus Dumbledore came to the auction house to find someone, and he was still looking for your friend, Master. But there was no accident. They left after chatting. .”

"That's good."

Artes breathed a sigh of relief. At least Grindelwald should have listened to what he said and did not quarrel in the street, let alone fight.

"Is there anything else? Master Aces."

"No, let Susanna take you out?"

"No, let her sleep." Joel sneered and turned to leave.

Asseth followed the cold gaze when he left.

Only then did I realize that Susanna had climbed onto the bed without knowing when, and even closed her eyes.

Aces: "..."

It's so embarrassing, how come he has such a cousin.

Can I apply for a replacement?

Aces returned to the cellar and was still thinking about this problem. He was not freed from this problem until Miss Medusa pulled her by her tail.

"Where's my snake?"

Miss Medusa looked at Asseth with resentment.

It was excited for a long time yesterday because of Assis's words. It waited from morning to noon, from noon to afternoon, and then to night with full expectation.

The last night passed, and it was as if Asseth had never said that, and showed no sign of giving the snake to her!

Not at all!

Didn't even look at her!

fraud!

Damn Cavendish!

Aces was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that there was such a thing.

His fingers crossed the alchemy ring, and a small snow-white snake appeared in his hand.

"Sorry, I forgot before." He squatted down and apologized to Miss Medusa seriously.

There were so many things going on yesterday that he really didn't think about it.

So serious...

Is she too stingy or just forgetful? It's not like Asseth doesn't intend to give it to her.

Although she thought so in her heart, Miss Medusa still held her head high and said reluctantly: "Since you apologized, I will reluctantly forgive you, but you can't do this next time."

"Okay, I remember."

Aces smiled gently and placed the white snake in his hand next to Miss Medusa.

The white snake's tail automatically wound up, its lusterless eyes glowed slightly red, and it twisted its head one by one, looking from Asses to Miss Medusa again.

"Master, is this my new home?"

"Correct."

It swayed left and right to adapt, and its eyes slowly became more agile, looking around. The whole snake became more agile to the naked eye.

"I like it here, thank you, Master."

"You don't need to call me master. I'm not the master here. Just call me Asseth."

"This is Miss Medusa next to you."

"Sister Medusa?"

"Yes, yes." Miss Medusa nodded quickly, with a look on her face.

It seemed like a good feeling to be called sister.

After Asses introduced him and Miss Medusa, he pointed at the bedroom door with his palm.

"The owner of the cellar is not awake yet. If you see him, you can follow Miss Medusa to call the dean. His words are priority."

Miss Medusa still nodded beside her.

"Then what is my name, father."

The bedroom opened, and Snape, who had just woken up, heard these words from his father and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It calls you father?"

Aces heard the sound and turned around in surprise.

"Sev, you're awake."

Snape nodded slightly, walked up to Artes, and looked down at the white snake.

"What is this?"
