[HP] Aunt of the Savior

Chapter 95 The Unbreakable Oath

The fighting spirit Gryffindor in the box didn't pay attention to the situation in the corridor, nor did he notice the figure passing by outside the box door.And the two people in their plan who urgently need them to stop or save - Jody and Snape sat in the Slytherin's prefect's box quite leisurely.

"I miss you so much, Jo..." Snape softly kissed Jody's earlobe and whispered in her ear.He held his lover in his arms with a degree of passion that Jody found unbelievable.Because this time they got tired of being together almost from the moment they got on the train. "……miss you very much."

"Me too." Jody leaned against Snape's chest, reassuring that something had changed in his mind.She used to think that it was because of Irene's death, but now it seemed that maybe it was more than that.Snape looked tense and cautious, as if he was particularly afraid of losing... losing?

"Severus, during the holidays..." Jody swallowed the sourness in his heart, and asked tentatively, "Did Lily look for you again?"

Snape's body stiffened visibly, and he didn't write to Jody about it.But when she asked, he didn't hesitate or try to hide, but nodded. "Yes, she tried to persuade me. But, I think... she will never try again."

He clearly and sharply Jody noticed his abnormality, but he couldn't control his desire and anxiety for Jody.His fear of losing her was greater now than ever: she was all he had.He has lost his relatives, his friends, and can no longer lose his love-he has been grateful that the person he fell in love with is Jody countless times in his heart.

"We already thought it would end up like this, didn't we...Lily won't accept it." Jody heard the disappointment in Snape's tone, and whispered.She had tried to get Snape to avoid the showdown with Lily, she didn't want some particularly memorable memories between Snape and Lily, but it seemed that her plans had failed.

In fact, she really wanted to ask what Snape and Lily had said, but she didn't know what she should say, so as not to appear that she cared too much about it.

The atmosphere in the box suddenly became awkward.Fortunately, there was a polite knock on the door at this time, which made Jody and Snape both heave a sigh of relief.

Snape stood up, revoked the defensive spell, opened the door of the box, and found Regulus Black standing outside the door with a tense expression.

"Regulus?" Jody and Snape were very surprised by this sudden visitor.

"Sorry to bother you." Regulus politely nodded to them as a greeting, then walked into the box and sat down opposite Snape and Jody.

"No, you are also qualified to use this place, aren't you?" Jody smiled, and his eyes fell on the shiny prefect badge on his chest. "Congratulations on becoming the prefect of the fifth grade."

"Thank you." Regulus was not as handsome and conspicuous as Sirius, but when they looked at each other, Jody felt that his eyes were very similar to those of Sirius, they were a slightly haughty and cold gray .Now, these gray eyes are staring at Jody very seriously: "Actually, I have something I want to talk to you alone."

"I feel that as a companion with the same goals and aspirations, there is no reason for me to be excluded." Snape said displeased.

Jody smiled and squinted at Snape's performance. "Since Severus said so, can we invite him to join our conversation?"

"Alright... Jody, I actually have something to ask you." Regulus hesitated for a moment before giving in. "It's about... Sirius."

Snape let out a loud and disdainful snort from the side.

Jody understood immediately why Regulus had tried to avoid Snape for a moment.I'm afraid the whole school knows that Snape and Gryffindor's Black and Potter have completely feuded after the incident at the lake last year, and Regulus knew that Snape would never like hearing about Sirius. name.

However, after two years of being honed by being responsible for the club, Regulus is no longer the shy and timid little boy he was when he first entered school. He was indifferent to Snape's ugly, almost terrifying expression, and continued: "I Wondering where Sirius went during the summer, I know he and Potter are good friends, you might know where he was during the summer..."

"Yes," Jody looked at Regulus, as if trying to figure out what he was thinking and what he was saying. (However, her actions provoked a heavy cough from Snape) "I know."

Regulus' cold gray eyes lit up instantly.

"But so what?" Jody asked back. "We all know that the Black family has nothing to do with Sirius, he has been removed. Why should you care where Sirius is or what he is doing?"

"I can't ignore a person who is related to my blood... You should understand how I feel, Jody." Regulus leaned forward, approaching Jody, his tone seemed a little eager. "You know what it's like to see a loved one take a different path than you. I knew it when I saw your face on the platform."

"At this point, maybe Sirius and I are in a more similar situation." Jody said calmly. "I think you've seen how desperate I was to leave their side, and how... they didn't approve of me."

"Yes..." Looking at the indifference and displeasure in Jody's brown eyes, Regulus had to admit that he might have chosen a wrong starting point.

For a moment he was close to giving up, but the thought of seeing Sirius' expression among those Gryffindors in the corridor just now made him feel extra uneasy.Although Regulus couldn't hear what they were talking about, when he saw those overlapping hands, he suddenly realized clearly that his brother was not only separated from their family, but also very Possibly chose a completely opposite path from the family.

And among the people he can contact, maybe only Jody Potter can help him with his uneasy premonition in the future, so he will come to her—as one of the close relatives of the Malfoy family, Regulus Learned about the meeting with the Dark Lord at the beginning of the summer vacation from Lucius.

However, Regulus didn't want to easily expose the trump card in his hand. He tried to make some other attempts: "Even if Sirius has been expelled, I still don't want him to be homeless."

"Merlin praises Mr. Black for his kindness," Snape said with a sneer.He couldn't wait for Sirius Black to be on the streets.

"He moved to Godric's Hollow with Mr. Alphard Black." But Jody didn't intend to embarrass Regulus. "That's all I know—I can't keep an eye on Sirius all summer. You know , I have no reason to do this." She said meaningfully.

"Uncle Alphard..." Regulus muttered in a low voice.Now he knew why Alphard Black's name had also been burned from the family tree.He caught Jody's last words: "So what if you have that reason?"

"Oh?" Jody raised his eyebrows, "Can you tell me the reason? I hope that reason is not just based on your concern for Sirius Black."

"This reason is very important, maybe before mentioning it, we can use the unbreakable oath." Regulus tentatively suggested.

"No!" Snape was the first to object.He frowned and stared at Regulus fiercely, "I don't think that in order to fulfill Mr. Black's concern for his brother who ran out of the house, this kind of life-threatening magic has to be used."

"If you feel that Barty Crouch will not cause any trouble to you, then I can also give up this plan." Regulus said calmly.

"I don't think Batty can bother me?" Jody said.

"Even if he made certain demands on the Dark Lord?"

Regulus' words made Snape and Jody tense again.Unlike the others, they had vivid memories of Bellatrix marrying the Lestranges at Voldemort's behest as a Black.

Snape's face was a little ugly.He knew that Barty Crouch was very obsessed with Jody, and it was undeniable that he had many advantages over himself-pure blood, rich, and a father who held an important position in the Ministry of Magic.

"I can share with you everything I know, even Crouch's plan," Regulus said. "I think I should ask for a little assurance about it."

"Ah, of course." Jody nodded, "Now I can understand why you proposed the Unbreakable Vow. But why me?" She sneered, "Why do you think I can provide you with information about Sirius? news? You are well aware of my situation at the Potters, don't you see? The relationship between me and my brother is no closer than that between you and Sirius."

Regulus was taken aback.

"Regulus." Jody chuckled and looked at the uneasy Regulus, "Since you want to ask me for help, it seems that you may not only know about Barty Crouch? "

Seeing Regulus' reaction, she tossed her long hair back and gave a triumphant smile: "Well, I agree to make an unbreakable vow with you, which will help us to be more honest with each other... ?”

"Perhaps next, Mr. Black will think that you should make a two-way unbreakable oath." Snape said suddenly with a gloomy face beside him, as if the tension when he heard Crouch's name just now didn't exist at all. "Because it is undoubtedly more fair..." His eyes slid to Regulus, and a sneer appeared on his lips. "At least things that are still uncertain can't be a reason for unilateral payment?"

Regulus, whose plans were exposed by Jody and Snape one after another, no longer tried to conceal his intentions, and nodded without hesitation. He stretched out his right hand and shook Jody's right hand.

"Then, it's up to you to be the witness, Severus," Jody said to Snape.

Snape reluctantly tapped the tip of his wand on their clasped hands.

"Jody, are you willing to pay attention to any news and safety of Sirius Black for me?" A red flame emerged from the tip of the wand, which gradually grew into a thin red thread, entwined around Jody and Regulus. Si shook hands.

"I will. Then Regulus, will you keep the secret for me, and at the same time not reveal to anyone the news you got from me about Sirius?" Jody said.

This time, what appeared at the tip of the wand was a green flame, and the thin thread formed by it was intertwined with the previous red thread, forming a thin chain.

Regulus stared at the flame and said without hesitation: "I am willing."

"So, are you all willing not to refuse the help you can provide when the other party asks for help?" Snape, who was a witness, finally said.Witnesses to a two-way unbreakable oath must offer a fair word as security for an just oath.

"I am willing." The last golden flame spurted out, thicker and brighter than the first two, it swallowed the first two threads, woven into a golden rope, wrapped around their clasped hands, like It's as if it blended into their skin, and finally disappeared.

Snape slowly removed his wand, his face still not very good-looking.If possible, he would rather be the one who made the oath than Jody to take risks.But there is no doubt that neither of the two swearers would agree.Moreover, none of the three people present at this time thought that today's oath would come in handy so quickly.

The author has something to say:

In the original book, Narcissa unilaterally set the conditions for the unbreakable oath, and Snape unilaterally agreed.The way this spell is used has been changed by me in this chapter.
