Atonement of HP

Snape walked into the study room, the worried look in Lucius's eyes warmed his heart just now, he was indeed the only friend he recognized in his previous life, although they met earlier in this life, he was far from the one he showed in his previous life value, but Lucius still treats himself well, or better, after all, in the last life, Lucius would not expose his worries to him so obviously, even if he was really worried.

"So, you are Severus Snape?" In the study, a voice that spoke in a way that was [-]% similar to Lucius said, and was more thick and seductive.

"Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Abrathas Malfoy." Snape performed a standard aristocratic salute first, and then calmly looked directly at Malfoy's current Patriarch.When he met Lucius in the previous life, Abrathas Malfoy was already very ill and died soon. Snape didn't have much chance to meet the Dark Lord's senior.Now it seems that Abraxas is far more charming than Lucius as an adult, and his aristocratic temperament is far more charming than Lucius, who later took over the family in a difficult situation and supported it independently.

Snape's composure and politeness just now aroused the interest of Abrathass. If it seems that he just met the partner of the Malfoy family routinely, then now he has a better understanding of what Snape showed. big interest. "Since you said Luke's friend, I'll just call you Severus." Abraxas said kindly, and Snape nodded. "I heard that you grew up in the Muggle world. Your mother was a wizard? Did she marry a Muggle?" Patriarch Malfoy lowered his voice when he said the word "Muggle".

"Yes." Snape replied.

"Then your mother must have been of noble birth." This is not an interrogative sentence, but a declarative sentence.

Snape subconsciously operated Occlumency, and his face went blank for a moment: "I don't know." He said that the bloodline of the Prince family was something he didn't intend to tell Malfoy now.

"Occlumency?" The interest in Abraxas's tone became stronger, "Little guy, don't be so nervous, tell me your mother's name, maybe I can find relatives for you, you have to know, as long as the British magic community There is no nobleman that still exists, and Malfoy doesn't know about it."

"I don't think so." Snape didn't dare to relax at all. He couldn't figure out where the information was leaked. Could it be that he, a half-blood, deserves a thorough investigation by Patriarch Malfoy?Even as a friend of Lucius', that's a little too exaggerated. "My mother wasn't noble either, she's already passed away." In the end, Snape decided to stay the same, anyway, he didn't know anything.

"Oh, dear Severus." Abraxas called out with an aria similar to Lucius, and for a moment Snape felt extremely awkward: "Maybe your mother didn't tell you, but you have to know, The aristocratic ceremony you just gave me is only the etiquette inherited from an old aristocratic family. Considering your family background, your mother definitely comes from an old aristocratic family!"

Damn Lucius!That was Snape's only reaction after hearing this.What ancient aristocratic etiquette, Irene left Snape only the talent for potions from Prince's blood in her previous life, and all of Snape's etiquette came from the Malfoy family.It is conceivable that Lucius took great pains for his friend, and Snape obviously did not disappoint Lucius' efforts.

As a result, Abraxas' misunderstanding has been caused. Originally, Snape planned not to get in touch with the Prince family no matter what—even though the family is not prosperous now, but Irene's father, the head of the Prince family Now, not to mention side branches.However, a loophole stemming from cautious etiquette put Snape in a dilemma. Once he concealed it, or refused Abrathas's help, it might be regarded as a refusal of a client.Slytherin friendship comes from temptation, and confessing part of the family situation is definitely the first step in the temptation.

In a short time, Snape made up his mind: "If you are willing to help, I don't mind if you check it out for me, but I hope you won't disclose this matter to the third person before getting my permission." thing."

Abraxas was not at all surprised by Snape's change of attitude, on the contrary, the appreciation in his eyes deepened.Calm, adaptable, cautious... The perfect Slytherin, if it wasn't for Snape standing in front of him, he would have thought he was talking to an adult poisonous snake.

In a way, Abraxas had the truth.

"Of course, you can rest assured of the Malfoy family's promise. I will owl you after I find out. Of course, you can decide other things yourself. Then, for the rest, we can discuss the details of the cooperation you have reached with Luke." Abu Lasas was very satisfied. Luke, a roommate, deserved to be a friend of the Malfoy family.

---------------------------I am the dividing line that Lucius is anxiously waiting for------------- ------------

"Sev, how are you?" Lucius asked hastily as soon as the study door opened, and even the "Sev", whom he had always only called in his heart, came out.

"Luke, pay attention to your etiquette." Abrathas's voice came out, and he actually sent Snape out himself.

"Yes, Father." Lucius was only surprised for a moment and immediately recovered his demeanor. Snape almost saw that his old friend reprimanded Draco like this. Should it be said that this is hereditary?

"So, Severus, please feel free." Abraxas found his son's reaction very interesting. He had never seen Lucius care so much about a friend, but since Snape was born in a noble family, he was a Snape Leitlin, of course Abraxas has no objection to his son making friends with him.Even, Abrathas was very satisfied with Lucius' choice, using his friendship to recruit a potion master with unlimited future achievements.It is also because of this that he has just given up another profit in the agreement with Snape. It is always easier to remember than icing on the cake, isn't it?

"Sev, how are you talking with your father?" Lucius asked impatiently almost as soon as the door of the study was closed.

"Lucius, pay attention to your aristocratic etiquette! Who allowed you to call me 'Sev'?" Snape blushed. He didn't pay attention when Abraxas was there just now, but now he heard it clearly.

"Oh, dear Severus, you actually agreed with your father calling you 'Severus', so what's wrong with me asking for a unique title?" Lucius also gradually calmed down from the state just now, which is strange to say , since Snape walked away in front of his eyes and faced his father alone, he felt extremely sad in his heart.At first, this kind of sadness was attributed to his worry about his friends, but as time passed, the sadness was mixed with shame, which seemed to be a kind of shame of letting Snape face the unknown alone, which made Lucius It felt extremely weird.

"If the heir to the Malfoy family hadn't been trampled on his head by a troll, he should know that he didn't have permission!" Snape felt extremely awkward. In his previous life, no one except his mother called him "Sev", only In those most beautiful dreams when he was young, there was a sweet female voice calling him like this.Even though he was no longer obsessed with that voice in this life, but the most secret address in his heart was turned into an aria by his recognized friend, with "dear" in front of it, which made him feel ashamed and annoyed.

Lucius didn't care about that, being with Snape was thicker than Hogwarts. "Sev, how are you talking with your father?" The two returned to the living room during the conversation just now, Lucius snapped his fingers, and the house elf left in response.

"Lucius, are your ears blocked by achnatherum? I said don't call me Sev!" Snape was furious.

"Okay, dear Sev." Lucius shrugged.

Snape was helpless, he thought of the beauty potion he had been given by Lucius for more than ten years in his last life, and the roommate he made without saying hello in this life, Snape had never been like that. Now he realizes that he has nothing to do with Lucius.

As for Lucius, oh, Merlin bless!Lucius had discovered that Snape had a weird tolerance limit for himself since they started living together.Although I don't know the origin of Snape's extra tolerance, Slytherin is good at using his own advantages. Lucius tested Snape's bottom line again and again, and at the same time he was getting closer to Snape step by step. Snape was unaware of all of this. After all, in Snape's eyes, even if he could tell the difference between his previous life and his previous life, his reaction to the people around him was inevitably mixed with more subjective consciousness. .Some people lost because of this, such as Sirius and Lily; others benefited from it, such as the young master of the Malfoy family in front of him.

"Abraxas is a standard Slytherin." Since it cannot be changed, it can only be accepted: "I think the heir of the Malfoy family who knows more or less than the mandrake should know what kind of person his father is." "Speaking of this, Snape couldn't help showing some longing, in Abrathas, Snape seemed to see the image of the most beautiful father in his dreams.

Lucius felt extremely uncomfortable psychologically. Usually, when others said that, he would always feel proud of his father. Today, he couldn't feel it at all. "Oh, my dear Sif, don't be fascinated by my father's demeanor, he doesn't like you like that." Some malicious words came out uncontrollably, Lucius said it himself I froze for a moment, how could I make such a mistake!

"Lucius Malfoy! The function of that ball waiting on your neck is to think!" Fortunately, Snape didn't care at all. Napp said there was no pressure.

Hehe, Lucius laughed in a low voice, completely relaxed inexplicably, Snape was even lower than the bottom line he imagined for himself.
