HP: Embrace the Darkness

Estella was very familiar with the white tiger transformed by Asseth, and newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, so she could not understand Cynthia's mood at all.

The tiger's head and brains came close to the white tiger's thick paws, tutting in wonder.

"Aces, I remember you weren't that big before. Why did you suddenly become so big? I want to grow up too. Please tell me how to grow up."

The white tiger's big face tilted and he stared at the small unicorn in front of him. After thinking for a while, he lowered his body slightly and stretched out his four big furry claws.

Grows a deep growl at the unicorn.

Estela was frozen in place by the oppressive roar that came towards her, and looked at Cynthia helplessly.

It's a pity that Cynthia had already expected to step aside before Bai Hu lowered his body.

The surrounding unicorns also moved away.

At this time, the only people around White Tiger were the "newborn calf" unicorn and the potion master.

Snape glanced at the dazed little unicorn, and then at the white tiger who stretched his body after roaring.

Helpless, he acted as Bai Hu's translator.

"Aces said he couldn't speak and asked you not to be picky about food and listen to your parents more so you can grow up."

Having spent so much time with Artes, Snape could more or less guess what Artes wanted to say.

Bai Hu stretched and nodded slowly.

Then he flicked his tail, leaned down on the grass, and looked at Snape with his bright blue eyes.

"Hululu——"

Come up.

Snape understood and walked around to the side of the white tiger.

The white tiger is very strong. When the body is lowered, the bones of the back spine are arched high, and the muscles of the arms are swollen when the arms are bent. When viewed from the front, it looks like undulating mountains.

The white tiger's strong muscles didn't look like someone with an unsteady back, so Snape sat on it with confidence.

A tiger's waist is not as fragile as a wolf's, and a person will feel nothing when sitting on it.

Bai Hu carefully turned around to confirm whether Snape was sitting properly, then stood up easily and slowly carried Snape around to let him get used to it first.

"Hululu?"

After walking around, the white tiger stopped, turned back and purred deeply at Snape.

Afraid that Bai Hu couldn't hear clearly, Snape bent down and said in Bai Hu's ear: "No problem, do you feel pain?"

He had never ridden a horse, and he didn't know how to stabilize his body. In order to sit firmly, he could only hold the back of the white tiger's neck.

I don’t know what it feels like to be captured.

Bai Hu slowly shook his head, then nodded again.

It signaled that it didn't hurt, so that Snape could hold it without any worries.

The fur on the white tiger's back is very tight, and the muscles covering it have clear lines. Simply put, the skin is rough and the flesh is thick, so how could it feel pain.

Snape felt relieved and strengthened his hands. When he straightened up, he even rubbed a handful of the white tiger's large, furry face plate that felt great.

The white tiger raised its head in contentment and purred continuously.

Cynthia, who was standing far away, was always paying attention to the situation of Artes and Snape.

Seeing that they were getting ready, they came over with a group of unicorns and put Estrella back into the unicorn team. This little kid was a bit silly, so he had to watch out.

"Are we ready to start?" Cynthia asked eagerly.

The white tiger nodded and carried Snape to the starting line that the unicorn had just drawn with magic power.

As the leader of the clan, Cynthia stood at the front, standing side by side with Asseth.

"Then let's start?"

Bai Hu blinked and lowered his body to prepare.

Seeing this, Cynthia suddenly lifted her front legs off the ground and sent out a signal in mid-air.

The white tiger jumped up.

Although Snape was well prepared, he was still startled by the sudden jump. He subconsciously tightened the back of the white tiger's neck, and without paying attention, he even pulled out a few hairs.

The force used by humans in desperation was like tickling the white tiger, without any effect.

I saw it adjusting its posture in mid-air, its limbs landing on the ground one after another, its hind limbs bending, and then it suddenly kicked back with force, rushing forward at the head of the horse.

Because there was someone on the back, the white tiger only moved a little too loudly at the start, and then restrained its movements later on, trying to run as smoothly as possible and reduce bumps.

Even so, there was a long distance between them and the unicorn behind them.

Cynthia stared dumbfoundedly at the white tiger that suddenly lost sight of people, and anxiously sped up.

It regrets it.

It's better to just let the white tiger run away by himself.

It's not that shameful to lose like this.

The unicorn, which was preoccupied with embarrassing itself in front of Zafar, didn't realize that the more anxious it became, the slower it went. One or two of the unicorns following it had already surpassed it, chasing the white tiger who was far ahead.

The white tiger who was leading the race had no idea about the Unicorn Clan Leader's worries about losing face and losing face.

My heart and eyes are full of the lover on my back.

I am worried that running too fast will cause bumps, and I am also worried that I will lose face by my lover if I run not fast enough.

In order to grasp the speed, Bai Hu racked his brains and took every step forcefully and steadily.

The white tiger ran very steadily. Gradually, Snape slowly loosened his grip on the white tiger's neck. He also tried to relax his body and enjoy the refreshing wind coming towards him.

The wind is the breath of freedom.

He raised one hand and clasped his fingers lightly, trying to catch the wind that never stopped.

The wind still didn't stop, and kept flowing through the fingers, running towards the back.

Snape felt no pity for the passing wind.

Or even let go completely and give up all the wind that can't be held.

The scenery around me recedes rapidly, and in front of me is the golden sunshine.

The golden sunlight looked very warm, and Snape stretched out his hand to catch the approaching sunlight.

The sunshine before noon is warm but not scorching. When it falls on the palm of your hand, it warms your heart lightly. It feels a bit like the clear moonlight at night.

He didn't know why, but he suddenly had a very inexplicable idea.

He thought that even if he were to die now, he would probably have the courage.

Very few people know that Severus Snape, who has lived as a walking dead for so many years, has longed for death for a long time.

Until Asseth showed up.

Slowly, he began to fear death, fear that Artes' world would be without him, and fear that the only person who loved him would forget him.

Fear that the last trace of Severus Snape in the world has completely disappeared.

But now, he felt it didn't matter.

It doesn't matter that no one remembers it, it doesn't matter that there are no traces, as long as they are still together at this moment, he can face the future calmly, even if it is death.

"Thank you, Asseth."

Snape smiled wantonly, just like the child who was still yearning for the future, led by the white tiger, and ran forward without hesitation, overcoming all obstacles.

The past that weighed him down was so easily broken.

His future is his.

It can only be him.

There was a stream on the way to the valley, about two meters wide. White Tiger saw the stream keenly, but did not slow down, but ran faster.

At the edge of the creek, the white tiger roared.

Snape knew that he was warning, so he retracted his hand and grabbed the white tiger's neck again.

Together with the white tiger, gaze at the stream ahead.

Bend, power, jump.

White tigers and humans leap over the creek.

In mid-air, Snape looked back for the first time at the unicorn chasing after him.

It’s not only looking back at the unicorn, but also looking back at the past.

He looked at the unicorn who couldn't catch up no matter how hard he chased.

There was a relaxed smile on his face.

The white tiger also turned back, but it was not looking at the unicorn, but at the human behind it.
