HP: Embrace the Darkness

As if to verify Ases' words, the boy on the screen took the initiative to propose a deal.

[Severus was silent for a long time, and asked in disbelief and with a bit of sarcasm: "You mean to let you use your identity as my partner to participate in this matter to solve Voldemort and divide the British wizarding world?"]

[The young man nodded and shook his head, and retorted in a deep voice: "I never said that I wanted to divide up the British wizarding world. This is just a matter of mutual benefit. You just happen to lack alchemy talents and a complete industrial chain, don't you?"]

"It seems he wants both." Ases was speechless after a long time. "He is definitely not me. When did I become so greedy?"

"Not you?" Snape squinted his eyes while drinking water. "Who is it that has profited from the situation in the British wizarding world by stepping on Voldemort to rise to power? Who is it that has monopolized the two major industries of potions and alchemy in the British wizarding world and made a fortune?"

"It's me." Ases admitted honestly, and then explained, "But I really didn't have this plan before. I came to the UK at first because I wanted to keep close to Dumbledore and save his life at the critical moment. Later, I stayed in the UK just to be with you. Everything else was done in accordance with the trend. As for the monopoly industry... Isn't this to make our retirement life better?"

As for retirement, Ases has already made plans. After retirement, except for the assets he has earned over the years, he will not keep any other family businesses, including the Cavendish Alchemy Workshop he founded and the largest potion company in the British wizarding world today.

He was the one who let down the family's decades of training, and he felt guilty about it.

Besides, he has his own hands and feet, and he has accumulated money over the years, so he can't be that poor.

If he was not reluctant to see the Potion Master cut back on all aspects of his expenses, he would not have worked so hard to expand the industry, and would not have monopolized the two industries while expanding.

There is no such thing as antitrust law in the magic world, so this bargain just fell into his hands and there was no way to stop it.

Snape had some idea of ​​what Athis was thinking, and had no intention of objecting.

After all, it was he who kidnapped someone's promising son, so he deserved some compensation. He even felt it was a little too little.

"But I think my family probably won't agree. Maybe we can become shareholders by then." Ases guessed.

Suddenly remembering something, he looked at Snape and said, "Sev, we won't have children. I'm fine, but I have Alois. What are you going to do with Prince?"

Snape pondered. He had never thought about this question before. "...I have no feelings for Prince, and the generation gap doesn't matter."

"It's not the family, it's the potion." Aces corrected, sitting up and explaining, "Prince is a potion family, and you are a potion master yourself. Don't you plan to pass on the family heritage and your unique skills and potions?"

"You mean..." Snape raised his eyebrows, with something else hidden in his eyes, "finding an heir?"

"Of course the heir."

The two said in unison.

Ases laughed at their tacit understanding.

Snape didn't laugh, he found that he and Athis had no chemistry at all.

"Have you realized something?" Snape asked quietly.

Ases was totally unaware of the approaching danger, and his voice was filled with laughter.

"what's up?"
