HP: Embrace the Darkness

"What's wrong, Severus?"

Snape's strange expression fell into Zafar's eyes, and the unicorn, who had been acting calmly since they met, suddenly lost his composure.

It discovered that... the relationship between Snape and Artes seemed to be different from what it understood.

At the same time, it realized that there was something wrong with the way it just asked. Knowing and whether it is true are two different things.

Knowing that the person being blessed is a partner does not mean that they are a partner.

Thinking of this, Zafar looked at Snape worriedly and asked again the question he had just ignored.

"You and Asseth...is he your partner? Are you a couple?"

Snape was startled when he heard this straightforward question, and was forced to recover from his violent heartbeat.

Are we?

He lowered his head slightly to avoid Zafar's gaze, not knowing how to answer this straightforward question.

He and Asseth had never discussed this issue, or in other words, they tacitly avoided any issues that might undermine their current relationship.

Confused.

Take it one step at a time.

Maybe one day when the dust settles and he is still alive, he and Ass may take time to make choices related to the rest of his life on this issue.

but not now.

There was so much between them now.

Reality is whipping them step by step, not allowing them to stop and think clearly before starting.

They can only move forward without looking back.

After working as a Potions Master and a double agent for so many years, Snape was accustomed to doing things in a clear and orderly manner, and was not the kind of confused person.

Only in this matter was he willingly confused.

With the idea of ​​"being confused for a while, we can talk about the future later", we selfishly enjoy the pleasure of being loved and deliberately avoid the future.

Zafar got the answer after Snape's long silence, and he also became silent, and then started to think about this matter, whether it was a mistake.

There is a reason why blessings are given to your partner.

Blessings are born out of the most sincere love and wishes of unicorns. They are the embodiment of love, and what is needed is the nourishment of pure love.

If there is only one blessing, the blessing can absorb the love of others towards the owner of the blessing and nourish itself.

Once another blessing is sent out.

The object of love can only be another person with blessings.

In other words, they rely on their love for each other to cultivate blessings. The stronger the love, the more and stronger the mark can play to protect the two of them.

How difficult it is for one person's love to surpass the love of everyone.

In all his years of living, Zafar has only seen it in two people.

The rest, whether it is the love of parents, the love of friends, or even the love between lovers, has failed.

It’s not that they don’t love, it’s just that their love is scattered, and the love given to those who bless them is not enough to nourish the blessing and support its transformation.

Parents love their children, their spouses and relatives, and their families.

There are too many things in their lives that occupy their love.

The child only has part of that love.

That part of the love also needs to be shared with their brothers and sisters.

The love of friends is even more so.

After you have your own lover, children and family, you have much less love to share with your friends.

Zafar had recorded it.

A partner's blessing is the most likely to hold up and is also the weakest.

Other loves can see the ending of failure early after they are dispersed and diminished over time.

The love between lovers does not know the ending until the last second.

Maybe one second the two of them were so in love that they couldn't let each other go, but the next second they fell out of love when an unprecedented quarrel broke out over a trivial matter.

Failure occurs suddenly and without warning, which is why it is highly likely.

As for weakness...that's easier to understand.

Love is mutual. Parents love their children, and children love their parents. The blood relationship between them is the best link. It may not be enough, but it is still love.

The love between lovers is different. As long as one of them changes his mind, everything will collapse.

What a weak love.

As soon as you change your mind, you'll fall apart.

But yes, after all, who can guarantee that he will never love someone unfailingly?

Zafar shook his head sadly and gave himself an answer.

No.

In fact, the only couple who succeeded was not entirely successful.

Finally they separated.

Zafar did not want to recall that feeling of regret, and once again turned his attention to Snape.

Having seen so many failure cases, it is very clear that if you are not a partner and forcefully possess this blessing, there will be only one outcome - the blessing will automatically dissipate.

Zafar looked at Snape complicatedly.

I hope these two people can persist a little longer and don't waste this blessing. It hasn't seen what the final blessing looks like.

Cynthia later realized something was wrong from the unusual atmosphere and shut her mouth obediently.

He looked at Snape on the left and Zafar on the right, trying to find the reason for the change in their atmosphere.

"Severus, can you show me your hand?" Thinking about the successful connection within two minutes, Zafar still wanted to confirm it himself.

What if Snape was too shy to say it? This is not impossible.

Zafar looked at Snape with hope.

Unsure of what it wanted to do, Snape held out his hand in slight confusion.

Two similar heads instantly appeared in front of him, staring at his hands intently.

Cynthia also didn’t understand what Zafar was doing, but she didn’t stop him from joining in the fun.

Zafar recalled the blessing marks on the barely successful couple and carefully compared them with the blessing marks in front of him.

Then, it was horrified to find that the mark on Snape's hand was clearer than any mark he had ever seen, and every pattern was like this.

It recalled it carefully, and it seemed to be clearer than the mark on the back of Asseth's hand.

Zafar's eyes changed when he looked at Snape.

The mark suddenly became clear after the restrictions were lifted, which could only mean one thing: Artes loved Snape more than anyone else loved Snape.

Achieving the true love of one person against the love of many.

"Are you really not a couple? Or are you just quarreling, so you're not for the time being?"

The result was so different from Snape's attitude of silence and denial that even Zafar, who was as steady as Zafar, couldn't help but gossip.

Taking into account the excellence of Assis and the smooth connection just now, it directly ignored the possibility of unrequited love and chose another possibility - quarreling.

Don't listen to what young lovers say when they are angry. Zafar, who has lived for so many years and has counseled many young lovers, still understands.

It was just a casual guess at first, but after saying it, the more Zafar thought about it, the more reasonable it became.

The look in Snape's eyes suddenly became strange.
