Chapter 38: Treasure in the heart

The main reason for the conflict between Triton and Snape was not actually Harry, but the crisis hidden under Harry's seemingly glorious title of savior.

Just as Triton couldn't understand the horror and fear brought by the name of the Dark Lord Voldemort during the so-called war, Snape also couldn't understand why Triton knew that Potter's "future is uncertain" and that he might fight the Dark Lord in the end. Even when there is little hope of winning, he has to go all the way to be with Potter.

In addition, the most straightforward reason is that they lack communication.

Snape, who used to be a double agent, has his own way of dealing with his immediate boss Dumbledore and the Dark Lord.But Triton is neither the leader of the White Wizard who needs the Dark Lord's movements nor the Dark Lord who has been asking him to brew countless potions. Before knowing that Triton was his son, Snape never thought that he would have one in his life. The possibility of a son inheriting his blood.

Because the only woman he liked, Lily Evans, was not only married, but dead, by his stupidity.

Because he was at a loss, Snape chose the simplest and rude way, wanting to directly cut off the unrequited relationship between Triton and Potter, and he wanted to save his only child.

"My safety?" Triton finally said, "You mean the threat from Voldemort? I thought that the information Harry provided during the summer vacation was enough to solve part of his strength? Besides, how could Voldemort know me?"

"With Potter's arrogant and conceited character, he can't wait to tell the world about you and him. Aren't the newspapers these days full of his masterpieces? Moreover, the number of Death Eaters under the Dark Lord is overwhelming. Most of them are Slytherins, and you are a sea-merman... the long-lived race is enough to attract his attention."

"The Daily Prophet is all made up by Rita Skeeter to catch people's attention, and she can't mess it up anymore."

Triton didn't care about the articles she published in the newspapers before, but Harry didn't like her, so he would help catch her to make Harry happy. As for how Harry and the others would deal with Rita Skeeter , Triton didn't care either.

"Maybe as a wizard, my ability is really not outstanding, but Voldemort, I always think he is not terrible."

"He may be strong, as powerful as Professor Dumbledore, but in my opinion, he is just a poor wretch with a broken soul."

"Severus, you are my father, I am very grateful for your concern, but I beg you to at least ask my wishes, my thoughts. And this time, if possible, I hope there will be no next time. "

The black-haired man didn't say anything more, he lowered his head slightly, and suddenly found the gap between him and Triton, the big one hurt his eyes a bit.

With the warm cloak wrapped around him, Snape was a little dazed looking at his stern-faced child, as if he hadn't seen his smile for a long time.

Triton thought he would search the auditorium for a while before finding Harry, but as soon as he entered the auditorium, Harry greeted him.

"Come on, this dance music sounds very good." Harry took his hand and guided Triton onto the dance floor, dancing to the music.

The lights on the dance floor are not very bright, but very soft - or very ambiguous.

Triton leaned his face against Harry's chest, staring at the pocket watch chain in front of him and began to be dazed.He understood Harry's thoughtfulness, he neither complained about the long waiting time, nor asked about the content of his conversation with Severus... What a bad habit, it made him unable to take the initiative to mention some things to Harry.

At the beginning, he didn't understand what a Horcrux was. He only listened to the literal meaning, and it seemed that it was a vessel for the soul, not a living thing.But the reality is that, in addition to Voldemort's pet snake, Harry is also one of the Horcruxes.

It is very easy for Taoist disciples to expel a soul that intends to take possession, but Harry's situation is different. The soul piece in the scar on his forehead is almost unconscious, and has been fused with himself for more than ten years. It's not inseparable, but there is absolutely no way for Triton to separate Voldemort's soul piece while protecting Harry's own soul.

Originally during the summer vacation, Triton had already started to search for information in this regard and even wrote back to Tianque to seek help from his master.But the matter had been shelved for a long time after Draco added ingredients to his conditioning potion.Now is the time to pick it up again.

It was almost midnight at this time, and the musicians had been playing dance music tirelessly, but there were not many wizards dancing on the dance floor.What is being played now is a slow-tempo song, only couples in twos and threes on the dance floor slowly spinning with the melody.

Harry was racking his brains to make Triton happy. Of course, he knew that Triton didn't have any sad, agitated and angry mood swings at this time, and it was precisely because of this that he wanted to make Triton happy.From his arrangement with Rita Skeeter to the "novelty" Christmas gift Dobby gave him, he talked about the scarf that Triton gave him this year that has been shown off countless times.

"Oh, I bought a lot of wool and found that only plant fiber fabrics would cause me allergies, so I used animal wool. I used volcanic sheep wool mixed with a small amount of rush fiber to twist the thread and weave a lot of things I gave you a scarf, I gave Shani gloves, and uncle’s socks, well, I also gave Severus a nightcap." Triton had already danced a lot of dance music with Harry, and at this time The slow song just let him rest for a while, he almost put his whole body weight on Harry, and he hugged Harry's waist very comfortably, "Thank you also for the gift you gave me, the chocolate taste is very good, better than honey The ones sold in the Duke’s store are even better.”

Harry, who heard that his gift was not unique and might even be one of four sets, was not disappointed, as long as Triton had him in his heart, that was enough.He lowered his head and kissed Triton's forehead, and said with a smile: "It's as long as you like it, I will make it for you often in the future, but don't eat too much."

"it is good."

The day before the start of the second project, in the Hogwarts headmaster's office.

The five judges of the Triwizard Tournament gathered in one room, and they were determining the hostages for tomorrow's match. The selection of the first eight treasures of the warriors was quite smooth, but when it came to the last warrior, Harry Potter from Hogwarts , everything stuck.

"Try Harry's second option again." Dumbledore smiled and took a candy and put it into his mouth, the half-moon-shaped glasses shone happily.

With a flash of red light, Barty Crouch Sr. took the note and unfolded it, "Triton Winter."

The third, the fourth, the fifth...

"Then try Jumbo's Jumbo, which has its own set of rules!" Ludo Bagman advises.

The Goblet of Fire quickly gave the answer, but the name on the note made the judges of the Triwizard Tournament look at each other and made trouble.

"Harry Potter."

The first Triwizard Tournament re-hosted in more than 100 years has been very difficult along the way, because the extra warrior took a lot of effort to force the three parties to compromise.

Now there is a lot of trouble in the selection of treasures in the second level: the treasures of the two Hogwarts warriors are the same, the former warrior has decided that the ownership of the treasure cannot be changed, but the treasure of the latter warrior is the same no matter how he chooses. The previous one was already helpless enough, but Zhen Bao, who wanted to choose Zhen Bao as the second choice, found that it was the latter warrior. It is impossible for the warrior to save himself, right?

Ever since Karkaroff knew that Triton Winter was the child of Severus Snape, he had paid close attention to him, and Snape gave him all the energy to torment the Hogwarts warriors. After pointing out the way, he rested.He looked up lazily at the scattered pieces of paper on the table, and proposed a really effective solution: "Let the Goblet of Fire select the second treasure of the treasures of the Potter warriors within the range of Hogwarts. "

This may sound a bit convoluted, but in order for the second event to proceed normally, the referees had no other choice. Old Barty Crouch threw Triton Winter's name into the Goblet of Fire again, and with his wand Knocked on the mouth of the cup.

After a while, the Goblet of Fire spewed red flames, and a name was sprayed out.

Crouch opened it hastily and shook his head, "No need, Shani Black is the treasure of the Durmstrang warrior Georg Scheidemann."

"One more time." Karkaroff said indifferently.

Dumbledore remained silent, and his wise blue eyes kept staring at Mr. Durmstrang, who seemed to be in a completely different mental state from the last time he met. He knew that Karkaroff and Mr. Severus was out for a while, maybe Severus hinted at him something or not.

The old headmaster didn't think about it any further. The Goblet of Fire had already selected Triton's third treasure in Hogwarts. After Crouch finished reading the name that did not conflict with any current treasure, Deng Bad luck showed a smile full of interest.

He couldn't wait to see little Harry's face when he found his hostage—

The other referees looked a little weird when they heard this name, but the most important thing is to be able to play normally.

Note:

There are ways to deal with Horcruxes (in the wizarding world), but none of them can solve the soul piece on a living body, unless Voldemort's brain is completely removed and he comes to get Harry's soul piece himself, but there is no precedent for this in the original book.

Secondly, Lao Deng and the professor value prophecy very much. They believe that Harry's fate is completely tied to Voldemort. If the two of them do not fight in the end, no one can say whether Voldemort will make a comeback after his death.

Again, Harry and the others don't know the prophecy yet, they learned about it by accident in the fifth grade in the original book.Then it is unknown when Lao Deng originally planned to tell him.

The author has something to say: one hundred chapters (*￣︶￣*)
