HP: Embrace the Darkness

Cynthia winked at the other unicorns slyly, and then formally declared a challenge to Artes.

"Then let's compete to see who can run into the valley first. It's all our beasts!"

Aces was slightly startled, then suddenly realized.

"So that's what you had in mind?"

Cynthia shook her head and saw that the other unicorns all had garlands. She asked for the garland that Asses had given back to Estela, put it on her head, and gave Asses a disdainful look.

"What do you think?"

"The competition is not impossible." Artes looked at Snape and hesitated, "Sev?"

Snape nodded, "You can go if you want."

"That's not what I'm asking." Artes shook his head slightly, and unconsciously pulled out the extra wreath with his hand, causing Snape's eyes to drift away from the wreath.

Aces was thinking about what to say next and didn't notice Snape's gaze. After thinking for a moment, he said: "I want to ask, have you ever ridden a horse?"

When Snape heard this, his wandering eyes drifted towards Cynthia in the wreath, "Ride... a horse?"

Cynthia couldn't believe it: "You bastard, you actually want Severus to ride me!?"

"Whoever rides or doesn't want to ride, please step aside." Asseth turned sideways and squeezed Cynthia away. "I mean, do you want to ride the white tiger? Sifu."

Riding a white tiger?

Snape's heart moved shamefully.

Artes waited anxiously for Snape's answer.

He knew in his heart that if he went, Snape would only be able to watch their laughter and laughter alone. If he didn't go, Snape would feel that he had influenced him.

In this case, let's go together.

"White tiger? I think it's okay, Severus. The white tiger is so big, and it looks easy to ride."

Cynthia poked her head out from behind Artes with difficulty, encouraging Snape excitedly.

The abacus in my mind was crackling.

If Severus rides a white tiger, then the white tiger is equivalent to running with a heavy load. If it runs with a heavy load, it will definitely be slower. Then wouldn't it be able to easily outrun Aces?

His heart was beating, but Snape still hesitated.

You must know that the white tiger... is Asseth.

Let him ride Aces?

Isn't this...a little bad?

Snape looked Arthur up and down, trying to find any trace of embarrassment or embarrassment on his face.

It's a pity that someone doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong with being ridden, and is waiting expectantly for his answer.

Snape hesitated between heartbeat and propriety, tentatively stretched out his paw: "Can you..."

"Yes!" Asseth replied without hesitation, not caring at all what the content behind it was.

Snape looked at him quietly.

Assei thought about it for a while, and then came up with words that could be followed by the word "neng" to fit into the current situation.

Then, pick the taller one from the short ones and pick the one that is most likely.

"I can carry you. If you don't believe it, we can try it first."

Snape slowly raised his head and lowered his eyes to look at the wreath, "Wreath, put it on for me."

Aces stared at Snape for a while as if he didn't understand what he was saying, then looked at the wreath in his hand for a while, and finally looked at Cynthia.

"Cynthia, step on me."

Cynthia was speechless: "Are you sick?"

"Don't tell me, I really have——"

Snape couldn't hear the next words and interrupted him directly: "Should you wear it or not?"

Estella squeezed over, "If it doesn't wear it, I'll put it on for you, Sifu."

Aces woke up from a dream, and with one hand he pushed Estella, who had finally squeezed in, back out, and with the other he held Snape.

"Wear!"

Snape lowered his head slightly to make it easier for him to move.

Artes carefully set up Snape's hair, and then enchanted the rough branches and leaves of the wreath.

It also nourishes flowers that have lost a lot of petals and are somewhat withered.

The flowers bloom more brilliantly.

The preparations were all done, and Asseth solemnly and piously put a garland on Snape.

The custom of unicorns wearing garlands on each other to wish each other safe is actually just a custom and has no special effect. At most, it is a good intention.

Over time, this custom became one of their daily games.

You send me, I send you.

The pictures are just for fun.

But when it was made by Aces, it felt indescribably heavy, as if the wreath was not just a wreath, but also a heavy promise.

The unicorns who were watching all tasted something else from it - even if Snape's future had nothing to do with the word "safe and smooth", Artes would do his best to keep him safe and smooth.

This feeling comes out of nowhere.

They looked at each other, confirmed, and finally found that everyone had the same idea.

"As expected, they are partners."

It was the same quiet voice that could not be ignored.

The other unicorns also silently agreed in their hearts.

Snape lowered his head and couldn't see the surprised and curious gazes of the unicorns, but he could feel Artes's emotional changes.

He frowned not knowing why, stretched out his hand to hold Asseth's hand, and took it off the wreath on his head.

The garland had already been put on, and Artes simply clasped his hands with his back, "What's wrong?"

Snape looked at Artes for a while, then took the lead to look away, "Nothing, you can become a white tiger. I have never ridden a horse, so..."

"It's okay, just hold on to me. It'll be okay, I promise."

Thinking that the Animagus could not speak, Artes first told Snape the action instructions he had thought of.

"I may not be able to hear what you are saying when I'm running. If I feel fast, if I want to slow down, tap me once. If I feel slow, if I want to speed up, tap me twice and three times to stop."

Snape nodded, but his mind was in another place, "Lower your head, and I will help you take off the garland."

Artes bowed his head obediently, Snape touched his eyes, carefully separated the wreath from his eyes with his fingers, and carefully took off the wreath.

"Then I've changed?"

Snape held up the garland and hummed.

Aces moves the magic.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the spot, and a tall and strong white tiger took his place.

Biologically, the white tiger is a variant of the Bengal tiger, also known as the Bengal white tiger.

An adult male Bengal tiger can reach about 2.9 meters in length, weigh more than 200 kilograms, has a swing force of nearly a ton, a bite force of more than 900 kilograms, and can withstand more than five times its own body weight.

The Animagus transformed by Arthas perfectly inherited the strength of the Bengal White Tiger.

It's just that in order to avoid accidental injuries, I am used to shrinking my body, so it doesn't look so scary.

In this competition, he had no intention of giving up.

For the first time, the true size of the Bengal white tiger is fully revealed.

Cynthia gasped.

Its size is not the largest among the unicorns, but it is definitely not small either, but now...

It cautiously stood over to compare.

High means it's a little higher, but that's just a little higher.

But he is still strong, his claws are so thick that one can hold up all four of its hooves.

Cynthia was immediately heartbroken.

How to play this.

Aces looked like he could kill it with one slap.
