[HP] Elephant of Time

He went back to the past.

Harry suddenly saw this weird loop - it was not anyone who saved Severus Snape's fate, but himself, so he disappeared on the stage of the Rite of Spring, so the survivors after the battle The investigators did not find the Potions Master's body in the Shrieking Shack.

When did that man know everything?Why did he choose not to say anything?If...if he hadn't performed the Demon King on stage, if he hadn't read the "key" to the reappearance of the scene, would everything have changed?Severus died in the Shrieking Shack, and he would spend his life wandering as well.

—Why didn't he say anything?

Although Harry doubted it in his heart, he also knew that now was not the time to talk about it.

The first thing he had to do was to give emergency treatment to the dying Severus and take him to the small town of Kars.

Harry took a deep breath - he could do it.

He can do it, heal, rescue, Hermione taught him some basics.

He could do it, send Severus to town, without the dangerous apparition and flying.He can cross that boundary. In the flow of time, space cannot be an obstacle. He can follow the flow of time to find the location of Karn Kars.

He was absolutely sure of it.

"Severus...Severus..." Harry used his magical power to briefly treat the potion master's injury, and then softly called the potion master. He is not very good at healing spells, so he needs to confirm that Severus Ruth's status.

"...Potter?"

"let's go."

Wrapping his arms around the Potions Master, Harry felt himself back on the boat again.This time it wasn't just him and Severus, he saw the ferryman standing at the bow - Karn Kars.

"A rare guest . . . what a wonderful thing time is, don't you think?"

Harry knew that he was not the Karn Kars he was looking for, but the one he had seen in the mysterious room in the bookshelf at Hogwarts.

After seeing the two lights from the Dryad, he could tell the two apart now.

One is a person who is really living in the world, and the other is the shadow reflected by the soul projected in the flow of time, but he does not know whether all Kars will be like this, or only Karn Kars is a special case.

The ferryman in a black robe waved lightly, and the boat began to move forward after shaking slightly.

"Don't worry, Sev's injuries won't get worse in this place," he said. "The white bird is a benevolent creature who doesn't like to see bloodshed and sacrifice. In this long river of time, all suffering will be temporarily Fade, because there is no eternal pain in the world, and of course there is no joy here, because there is no eternal joy in the world either."

Harry looked at the ferryman and said softly, "Even if Shiratori doesn't like bloodshed and sacrifices, time has already witnessed countless bloodsheds and sacrifices."

"Then what's the matter with the white bird?" The ferryman in a black cloak sat on the bow, singing like a song with a strange melody, "It was born to carry time, but it can't stop human greed."

"Those two people who once appeared at Kars's house and the tree goblin's life tree..."

"Guardians who violate the rules will eventually be taught a lesson, but the darkness has indeed infested them. During the long and boring mission, evil has grown in the hearts of Shi Zhiliu's people."

"So who are you?"

Harry raised his head, and there were golden threads in his green eyes. The figure in black robes gradually distorted in his eyes, blurring Kars's original face, and turning into a dazzling white.

"Who am I? I am Kahn Kars, the No.70 third-generation patriarch of the Kars family. I was chosen by the previous patriarch to protect the three wings of the white bird."

The white gradually converges into the shape of a bird. Its figure is elegant and holy, and its eyes are calm and compassionate.When it looked at Harry, it seemed like endless time was flowing in its eyes.

"Then who is Karn Kars?" Harry already knew the answer, but he still wanted to hear the answer from the person in front of him.

"Who is Karn Kars? When evil spreads in the hearts of the people, the symbol of time has foreseen the chaos in the future, the first wing and the second wing are blocked beyond the touch of anything with life, the darkness The hand cannot grasp its power, so it turned its mind on the third wing, and the Kars family was distorted because of this."

"So you turned into Karn Kars, hid the white wings, rejected the successor arranged by Time, and put your power on Severus instead."

"The white bird is just a symbol, without three wings, I don't have enough strength to clear all the darkness in the flow of time, unless the years repeat themselves, the heavens and the earth open up, and start everything again, but I don't want to and have no right to decide everything. Karn Kars is not a mere incarnation, he is the clarity in the turbidity, understands my heart, and is willing to be with me. I can't go to the 'outside' world, so he will never be able to return to the time flow."

"I want your power to help me. For this reason, Kars modified the time of Severus Snape's life through the third wing, and because of this, he was found abnormal by the people of Time and Flow. What happened later you We all know."

Karn Kars dies, leaving Snape still amnesiac.

"Why didn't you say it sooner?" Harry was already tired of Dumbledore's concealment.

"Harry Potter, the construction of time is not that simple. Even for me, it takes a lot of effort to construct an extra period of time. A little mistake can cause damage. Like if you already know this , our conversation here will not happen the same. Only by minimizing the variables that will be affected can this newly constructed time loop be more stable."

"Severus knows all about this?"

"He is very smart, so smart, he has already guessed a corner of the truth, but he is not as close as you are at the moment. He is also the most unstable of all variables, but your former principal is right, love is the most important thing in the world. Great strength, because he loves you, so this time is finally stable."

Harry shuddered and looked at the man in his arms.

"You said he loved me."

"Why are the two people who love each other always the last to know about falling in love? Ask his heart, ask yours, young wizard, can you really not see traces of love?"

"...No, you're right."

Harry gently brushed Snape's stained black hair back.

This tortured man will lose his memory and become the adopted son of Kars.

Five years later, a rash young man broke into his vision of time and broke into his life again.

They will love each other and will always be together.

He swears by Harry Potter's soul.

Harry pressed his lips to the unconscious man's forehead.

"what do I need to do?"

"The third wing is already in your body. I passed it to Severus in the tome of the Elephant Time, and passed it to you through Severus. Please guard it until the end of this chaos. "

"Then?"

Compassion and helplessness flashed in Shiratori's eyes.

"I don't know, the time hasn't been decided yet."

After saying that, the white bird disappeared. Harry showed up at Kars' house holding the seriously injured Potions Master. At that time, Kars seemed to be still dubious about his origin. He handed the pocket watch he wore all the time to the old man.

Kars recognized the craftsmanship and traces of manufacture, and finally believed that they were the wizard he was waiting for.

After settling the people down, Kars looked at the gradually glowing light on Harry's body and said to him, "Is there anything I need to convey?"

Harry shook his head, and took a last look at the Potions master five years ago, and the indistinct tone came faintly.

"There is no need to say anything, because the future is already doomed."

※※※

Harry Potter has been missing for a week.

Snape was counting the time as he bottled the potion.

He doesn't know anything about what happened next, except that Potter went back in time to save him, but he knows Potter will always come back - the Potions Master was not happy with himself for using the word "return" .

The medicine to treat black magic injuries has been boiled. Shenfeng Wuying is a spell invented by himself, but it is not so easy to eliminate all the black magic effects in it with potions. Fortunately, both the inventor of the spell and the brewer of the potion He is the greatest dark wizard and master of potions.

He was going to deliver it to Redhead Weasley today.

"Professor? Long time no see." George Weasley looked behind Snape.

"Shut up your stupid poking around, Potter isn't here." Snape strode into the Weasley joke shop. The twins had never been obediently listened to before, and even being told not to call themselves professors was rejected. A bunch of nonsensical rebuttals came back, and Snape, who couldn't curse him, let him go.

Closing the door, George looked at Snape gravely.

"Professor, I don't think you're followed by some fanatical Slytherin lover?"

With his excellent eyesight, he could see if Harry followed him at a glance. He just probed because he found a lot of sneaky and malicious stalkers. Didn't the Death Eaters deal with them almost?

"A quarter of a day, after four days, the influence of black magic will disappear." Snape took out the potion, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Professor." George stopped the potion master and blinked. "Want to see my products?"

Snape threw the red-haired Weasley a scornful look before striding out of the shop - the Slytherins couldn't stand such a poor excuse.
