HP: Embrace the Darkness

He knew that Anna's cousin disappeared inexplicably a few years ago, and Anna has been looking for her whereabouts over the years.

Aces clenched his fists subconsciously. After realizing that his state was not right, he immediately used Occlumency to force himself to calm down.

He can't help them right now, and he can't cause them any trouble.

Besides, his parents are not soft persimmons, Asseth comforted himself in his heart.

He didn't reply. My father would know what he meant.

Aces unconsciously stroked the letter in his hand.

He thought: The Horcrux matter is going to be accelerated, and he can't waste too much time here.

So for the next ten days, except for class time.

Aces was either sitting in his box studying Horcruxes or experimenting with his results in the Room of Requirement.

Carter, who couldn't find anyone, was very depressed.

He finally made up his mind a few days ago and decided to side with Aces.

As a result, he now has no one to show loyalty to who he wants to side with.

In desperation, Carter stopped Elise in the auditorium during breakfast one day and took her to a secret place.

Elise didn't resist when she was stopped, and followed Carter obediently.

It was difficult for her to take action in the auditorium, and Carter's behavior fulfilled her wish.

In an empty classroom.

As soon as she entered the door, Elise slammed Carter's hand away.

She pulled out the magic wand with a cold face and pointed the tip of the wand directly at Carter.

"Carter, what do you want to do?"

Seeing this, Carter raised his hands and took a step back, indicating that he had no other ideas.

He knew that his previous provocation made Elise dislike him, so he hurriedly spoke:

"I came to see Asseth, but I couldn't find him anywhere recently, so I asked you. I don't mean any harm."

Carter looked at Elise sincerely, trying to express his kindness with his eyes.

Hearing this, Elise lowered her wand slightly, but still pointed it at Carter.

Aces had taught her to always be cautious.

"I don't know where sir is, so it's useless for you to find me."

Carter didn't believe it when he heard Elise's words.

He saw Asseth ten times, and Elise would be by his side at least eight times.

Carter didn't know that Artes was helpless about the fact that Elise followed him every day.

Some of the girl's ideas made him unbearable, and he couldn't get rid of them for a while. He could only let her follow him and observe his behavior, so as to slowly change Elise's habits.

Seeing that Carter made no move, Elise raised her wand threateningly, gesturing for him to speak.

Looking at Elise's alertness and actions, Carter sighed helplessly.

How could a once innocent girl be taught to be so difficult to deal with by Aces?

At this time, Elise also saw that the person in front of her did not believe what she said.

She said to Carter unhappily: "Believe it or not, I didn't lie to you anyway."

Does she still want to find Asseth?

But Asseth has been really elusive recently, and even she can't find anyone else.

She had guessed what Ass was doing, but it was not something Carter could know, so she didn't say anything.

The two were in a stalemate for a while, and Carter finally determined that Elise didn't know the whereabouts of Asseth either.

Since he didn't know, there was no need for him to waste time with Elise. Gentleman Carter stepped back and opened the door.

Seeing that Carter had no other behavior, Elise quickly left the classroom.

At this time, Asseth, who was being remembered by the two of them, was currently studying the book "Secrets of Advanced Black Magic" in the Room of Requirement.

Since getting the book that day, Asseth has discovered that the book does not require the professor's signature to be viewed.

Maybe it's because Dumbledore didn't think anyone could get through the barrier he had put up and get the book. Aces guessed in his mind.

As the daily research began, Asseth carefully opened the alchemy product that blocked the magic power. "Secrets of Advanced Black Magic" was lying quietly inside, and the dark cover was unreasonably scary.

Aces looked for the dragonhide gloves in his pocket, but couldn't find them.

Because the cover of this book gives people such a weird feeling, Asseth always wears dragon skin gloves to touch this book.

Today he couldn't find the dragon leather gloves, so he had to pick up the book with his hands.

As soon as he got it, Asseth almost couldn't control his hand and threw the book out.

Fortunately, he reacted in time and forced himself to hold the book.

Aces looked at the cover of the book seriously for the first time, with a surprised look on his face. This touch couldn't be human skin!

Aces rubbed the cover with his hand in disbelief. It was indeed human skin, and the dark color should have been stained by blood.

With a flick of the brush, Ass's face turned pale.

After all, he is just an eleven-year-old wizard now. He has never even seen a dead person, so it is normal to be scared.

Aces suppressed the fear in his heart and put the book down with trembling hands.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and tried to calm down the fear in his heart.

After a while, his breathing gradually calmed down.

Aces opened his eyes and looked at the book on the table with complicated eyes.

Even the cover is made of human skin. The author of this book is really crazy.

However, this also just shows that this book should be the original edition, and it may even be the author's manuscript.

After Asses finally recovered, he remembered that he had just touched the cover with his hand.

He has mysophobia!

Aces looked horrified, and kept waving cleaning spells on his hands until he thought they were clean.

Then, Asseth looked around, trying to find something that could transform into a glove.

But it was a pity that for the sake of safety, Assest specially asked for an empty room with nothing except a table.

In desperation, Asseth simply ignored his image and reached out to pull off two buttons on his clothes. With a tap of his wand, the two buttons turned into gloves.

He put on his gloves, then picked up "Advanced Black Magic Revealed" and continued reading.

During the reading process, Asseth still couldn't restrain his disgust.

He tried his best not to think about the cover and focus on the content.

The book is a good book, and the ideas in it often amaze Asseth.

There wasn't much content about Horcruxes in the book, and he quickly finished reading the relevant content.

The production of Horcruxes is actually not difficult. The difficulty lies in using evil methods to kill others to split their souls. But this is not difficult for Voldemort.

Arthas carefully recalled the information about Voldemort's Horcruxes in the prophecy.

But the prophecy was blurry, and I could only vaguely remember that there seemed to be several Horcruxes.

But if your soul is divided too much, you will become an idiot. Voldemort is so brave! Aces cursed in his heart.

Asseth's internal complaints did not affect his thinking. He quickly simulated various plans in his mind, then considered the feasibility one by one, and finally eliminated them all.

Aces was a little frustrated. None of the methods worked.

It seems that just having a theory is not enough. Maybe I need a Horcrux? Aces thought.

But this becomes an endless loop.
