Chapter 57 The Strongest Duel

Starting training at night meant that Harry's time was compressed again, but because of his excellent grades he was spared a lot of homework, but his time was still tight, like a spinning top from morning till night.

During dinner time, I finished my homework for the Charms class while eating, and drew two manuscripts, and then Dumbledore came.

"How?" Harry knocked on the table and gave him a cup of milk tea and a piece of chocolate cake. Dumbledore was not polite, and sat on the single sofa to eat with ease. He was a little hungry after a busy day.

"The spy has already left. If you are quiet this week, then go get the ring next Saturday." Dumbledore took a sip of a cup of milk tea and sighed contentedly, "Sweets always give people strength."

"Okay..." Harry twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed helplessly, "Anything else?"

"Cheese omelette and pudding, thanks." Harry knocked on the table, and Dumbledore's dessert would appear on the table soon.

While Dumbledore was eating and drinking sweets, the door of the Chamber of Secrets opened again, and Snape walked in from the outside. He didn't have a good impression of this place, but he just frowned and glanced at it. the old bee, and then set its sights on a certain little monster who was seriously drawing a picture.

"Professor" Harry raised his head and greeted him, and continued to mark with his hands. Snape nodded and sat on the sofa opposite Dumbledore.

"Wait for a while." Harry knocked on the table and gave him a cup of black tea. The blueprint still had some finishing touches, and Dumbledore hadn't finished eating yet, so he let the old bat rest for a while.

Snape was not obliged or urged, Dumbledore consciously accelerated the speed of eating, and he finished eating at the same time as Harry wrote the last stroke.

"Come to the training room." Harry said as he got up and led the two of them to the duel room. "Please don't hold back, gentlemen, and trouble you to use Legilimency."

Harry opened the door to the duel room. The space was quite large, almost like an auditorium. Harry rolled up his sleeves while talking, and took off the restraining bracelet on his arm. The other two powerful wizards in the same space immediately took precautions, but Soon Harry controlled the release of magic power, and the air eased.

Snape really didn't expect the little troll to be so powerful. Although it shouldn't be comparable to the Dark Lord in his peak period, compared with the current broken body that sliced ​​himself mad, it is already indistinguishable.

Harry performed the teaching ceremony as a junior, the two adults returned to the teaching ceremony, and the three walked away, and immediately started to move.

Snape held back his hand at first and didn't use Shenfeng Wuying. He was afraid of hurting the little troll, but soon realized that his holding back was a contempt for his opponent. He shook his wand, like Dumbledore Lido also got serious.

Dumbledore is good at fire magic, but has a lot of research on other magic, so he can easily defend against attacks.Snape is also good at hunting, but he loves powerful spells. Harry can only dodge in embarrassment for a while, but Dumbledore soon blocks his way with a wall of fire. He sideways avoids Snape's spells, and is caught Dumbledore's next spell approached him, he was able to block the spell with the Armor Charm and counterattacked, but Dumbledore easily blocked the counterattack, and Harry had to build a high wall to block it. The opponent's field of vision, when the wall collapsed, he dodged to the other side and threw multiple spells in succession, successfully preventing the two from attacking, but also scratched the back of his hand by Snape's spell, and by the way, blood gushed out like a pillar , Harry let go of the wand with a pain in his hand, grabbed the wand with his left hand before it fell, and with a wave of his hand, Snape, who was stupefied, was disarmed.

"I have to say...Harry! You are very good!" Dumbledore immediately handed over Harry's wand, and after stopping, he applauded proudly, very satisfied with the boy's beautiful counterattack.

"Hand" Snape took out a bottle of White Fresh Essence from his pocket and threw it to him. Harry took two drops and put two drops on his hand. The wound healed quickly, leaving only shallow marks. Li casually put the porcelain bottle into his pocket.

"Continue" After Harry made the attack state, the training continued.

The second attack on Harry was more cautious. Facing two powerful wizards, Harry focused on defense, carefully observing the opponent's weaknesses so that he could hit him with one blow.Dumbledore was still old, and gradually slowed down slightly. Harry seized this opportunity keenly, and the Disarming Curse followed, and Snape also used Legilimency at this time.

Harry froze on the spot for a short while, and when he came to his senses, Dumbledore's fainting curse was already in front of him, and Harry could only fall on his back unwillingly, until Dumbledore helped him break the spell, and he covered it Get up from the ground.

"Is it okay?" Dumbledore looked at him with a smile, obviously Harry fell into the trick of the old fox.

"Continue" Harry brushed his messy hair, wiped the sweat off his face, got up and continued.

This time Harry switched from defense to offense and took the lead. The powerful silent spell forced the two opponents to use defensive spells. The fiery red flames rose to a height of more than two meters, forcing Dumbledore to extinguish the fire with water while dodging. There was a lot of fog, and Harry gradually hid his figure and sneaked behind the two of them.

In the end, Dumbledore was hit by the Petrification Curse, and Harry was hit in the back by Snape's follow-up.

"Are you all right?" Snape was worried when he heard the muffled grunt of the little troll, and quickly cleared away the fog, only to see the little troll propped up with one hand, a big bluish spot on the left side of his back, Snape walked quickly Stepping forward to support the man, he peeled off the damaged clothes and saw a deep wound on his shoulder blade. He pursed his lips and used a healing spell. After the wound stopped bleeding, he took the White Fresh Essence handed over by Harry. It wasn't until watching the wound heal and forming shallow scars that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Professor, I'm fine." Seeing that his expression was not good, Harry quickly comforted him with a smile, fearing that he would feel bad.Snape tapped his head and pulled him up from the ground.

Dumbledore, who was completely ignored, finally got up from the ground until the spell was lifted. He coughed lightly, reminding some two people who had their own atmosphere and completely ignored him.

"Come here today." He braced his old waist, alas...older, not younger than young "Severus take care of Harry, go to bed early, my children"

"Thank you sir, good night." Harry thanked Dumbledore, who waved his hand and walked out of the training room.

"Let's go." Out of the training room, Harry put on the invisibility cloak and followed the old bat out of the secret room.

Back in the cellar, Harry used his bathroom to take a shower first. The steaming heat relieved his fatigue, changed into a set of beige pajamas, wiped his hair and walked into the office.

"Come here" Snape sat at the table with a small medicine bottle, obviously waiting for him for a long time.

"It's scarred, it's okay." Harry stretched out his hand after saying that, and the old bat took a silver medicine spoon to smear the wound on his hand.

"Back" Harry unbuttoned his shirt and turned his back to him, the scar on his hand began to itch, and was about to reach out to touch it, but was stopped by the old bat, "Don't scratch"

Harry had to take small breaths until the ointment was absorbed and a thin skin formed on his hands.Snape also applied ointment to the wound on his back, waited for a while for the ointment to melt and absorb, and then tore off the skin attached to the wound. The scar had completely disappeared, leaving only light pink new flesh.

"Tomorrow morning," Snape said, throwing a drying spell on his fresh seaweed hair, "Go to rest."

His quick-drying hair was fluffy on his head, like a lion.

"Professor, good night." Harry ruffled his messy hair, said good night to him, and went back to his new bedroom.

This was originally a storage room for sundries, and the inner room was almost full without a bed and a cupboard. Harry just needed a place to rest, and this place was much better than the cupboard in the Dursleys' house.He snorted and snuggled into the soft coffee-colored quilt, and he fell into a peaceful sleep soon after being tired.

The addition of a person in the cellar didn't affect Snape. On the contrary, the two got along very well, eating together, reading books, correcting papers, and brewing potions.Snape accompanies Harry to train, Harry accompanies him to study ancient recipes, the little fox will accompany the owner during the night watch, and the owner will also pay attention to the nutrition of the pet.Of course, the only thing that affects the fun of the old bat's punishment and confinement, but there is a skilled person who can handle all the medicinal materials, and the master of potions is also satisfied, at least he will not waste his materials.

Day after day of training, Dumbledore, who was rarely free, stepped into the secret room again, and a new round of duel began again. After a week of adjustments, Harry's strength improved a little. Using Legilimency on him one after another, Harry couldn't help but pause for a moment before being disarmed.

Back in the cellar late at night, Snape still couldn't help asking about what he saw in Harry's memory, last Monday he saw a narrow space in a flash, and this week he saw a little troll being bullied.

"My aunt's family doesn't like wizards." Harry blinked, it was the past, and he didn't suffer too much pain when he did it again.

Snape was very angry now, angry that he knew what kind of person Lily's sister was, but he never cared about the life of the little troll.Also angry at Dumbledore, promised to take good care of the little troll, but let him live such a life.

"It's all over." Harry knew that he was in a bad mood when he pursed his lips, and he didn't care about it anymore, there was no need to upset the old bat.

Snape snorted coldly and didn't answer. He thought Dumbledore should give up sweets at his age, and then patted the little troll's head again.Harry Pet Potter has recently become accustomed to being treated as a pet, although he is a little depressed, after all, the elderly are not suitable for this kind of behavior.

The next day was Saturday, and he agreed with Dumbledore to fetch the Horcrux after dinner, and Harry offered to come back later in the evening.

"Take your brains when you go out." Snape nodded, the meat-cutting hand paused for a moment and said, "Don't be brave."

"I know." Harry looked at him with a smile while holding pumpkin juice.

"I wish..." Snape pursed his lips in doubt.

Harry put down his glass and got up to stand in front of him, then leaned over and put his arms around his neck, Snape froze for a moment, then stroked his hair with stiff hands.

"Goodbye, Professor" Harry whispered in his ear, like a farewell every time he left the cellar.

After Harry left, the cellar was completely quiet, Snape stared at the book in his hand in a daze, and the fire in the fireplace was burning brightly, because little foxes like bright warmth.

In the middle of the night, Dumbledore and Harry stood quietly on the ruins of Gaunt's old house. Dumbledore had already found out the exact location of the ring, and they quickly searched for the magical reaction under the ruins.

Compared with other places where the Horcruxes were hidden, the long-standing magic circle was quite easy to solve. They walked over the broken walls and went straight to the fallen cabinet.

"In this" under the fluorescent light, a ring was placed in a grid.

"I'll come" in case Dumbledore had an accident, they agreed that Harry would take the ring.

Harry knew that Horcruxes were all deceptive things. He had experienced those things and had prepared him mentally. He knelt on one knee and bent over to touch the prohibition on the ring. Scenes and scenes burst into his mind.

He saw the death of his parents, the death of Godilly, Sirius, Dumbledore, Moody, Remus, Snape... They all stepped into the arms of the god of death, the Horcrux tempted him, and asked him if he wanted to To keep them, just put on the ring, Harry watched coldly, he had already returned, so naturally he would not be affected by the past.

Soon the picture of the ring turned black, and just when Harry thought it was about to end, a sudden scene made him startled.

Under the firelight in the cellar, he and Snape were entangled in each other's necks, and the narrow sofa bears the strength of two people to protest strongly, but no one has time to take care of it, because Snape's melodious moaning has long been tempting him as if he was in heaven, They entangled fiercely until the clouds and rain stopped.He buried himself deeply on the side of Snape's neck and sniffed the breath on his body, while Snape, who was panting on his back, had flushed cheeks, and his lonely expression was beyond words.

"Remember tomorrow, you can go." After a while Snape pushed him away, and went into the bedroom to clean up without looking back.It was supposed to be the tenderness after the affair, but he was left alone in the cold air of the cellar.

Soon Harry knew what Snape said, and a huge magic circle slowly opened under his feet. The runes on it told him that it was a magic circle for sacrificial resurrection, and he willingly exchanged himself to resurrect him mother.He watched the two embrace each other, and he, who had lost all his magic power, was lying in the center of the magic circle and calling Snape weakly.

"I'm sorry, Harry, I love Sev a lot." Snape stared at Lily intently, completely indifferent to his call, and Lily apologized sadly to him.

"Do you want me? Put on the ring, I'm yours." Suddenly a pair of arms wrapped around his waist, the sound of Snape's cello lingered in his ears, they exchanged breaths, and kissed inseparably, On the other side was Snape and Lily hugging each other dazzlingly.

"Impossible..." Harry was terrified, he muttered to himself looking at the two different images, Snape's voice still echoing in his ears.

"Impossible!" Harry suddenly burst into an astonishing pressure, and Dumbledore had to call out his name defensively.Since Harry touched the ring, he has been standing still. The sudden reaction made Dumbledore very worried. He couldn't touch Harry, and he didn't dare to cast the spell casually.

While he was hesitating, Harry suddenly woke up.Panting heavily, he grabbed the Gryffindor sword that appeared out of nowhere, pierced the ring with one sword, and quickly disappeared with a roar and scream.

"Harry, are you all right?" Dumbledore asked softly.

Harry shook his body, looked up at him blankly, and it took a moment to realize where he was.

"It's okay." He shook his head with a white face, his eyes were full of puzzlement, resistance, and bewilderment.

"The past is the past, you have to understand this...don't think too much about it" Harry told him about the characteristics of Horcruxes, Dumbledore thought he saw the past again, and comforted him.

"Well... I know" Harry blinked and his expression darkened, he lowered his head and threw the ring into the box he had prepared earlier, and put it in his pocket "Let's go"

Back at Hogwarts, the cold breath of the basement came over his face. Harry walked slowly in the dark corridors until he stopped outside the cellar door. Medusa greeted him, but he just nodded without making a sound.He stared at the door of the cellar, perhaps feeling the breath of the cellar owner through the door.

If it wasn't for the ring, he would never have realized that he fell in love with Snape. Although it was unbelievable and even astonishing, but after thinking about it carefully, he had to admit that what he saw through the ring was just a reflection of his heart.Already in Agnimar's state, the fox's behavior had told him that he loved the old bat as his only mate.

But damn it... why him... Harry covered his face in pain.No matter who he is, he can go after anyone without hesitation, but Snape...he is too aware of how deep Snape's affection for his mother is, not only Snape's love for his mother, but also himself...he trusts and relies on He respects those who are guilty, but he only stays away from love. He knows that he can't, he can't disturb this man's love, that may bring their relationship back to the past, and he may not be able to bear to see the disgust in those black eyes again.

While Harry was thinking about it, the cellar door opened from the inside. Snape frowned and looked at the little troll's eyes that suddenly lit up. In a second, the other party's cool body suddenly fell into his arms.

"Tell me... what made you wander around my office door in the middle of the night?" Snape rubbed his hair helplessly. He didn't know what the old bee and the little troll were doing, but it was definitely not necessary for the two of them to go out together. simple things.

Harry nestled in his shoulder and shook his head, he didn't know how to speak, he just indulged in the momentary warmth.

"Thank you Professor" Harry whispered softly, and released Snape after a moment.

"Rest early." Snape looked at the little troll who bowed his head silently, sighed, turned and went into the cellar.

"Good night, Professor." Harry followed behind him, standing outside the temporary bedroom door and whispered good night.

"Good night"
