"I can't believe it. Snape said he wanted to help him? He really said he wanted to help him? "
"Yes, Snape said he wanted to help him!" Harry said, "Please, Ron, this is the tenth time."
"I'm just checking!" Ron said, "The conversation you overheard last night is unbelievable."
At this moment, in Gryffindor's common room, Harry and Ron were playing Wizard Chess.
Elwyn curled up on the sofa next to the fire, concentrating on the parchment full of ancient magic words in his hand.
It recorded information related to the Demon Altar, and he needed to confirm it again before he took action.
After breakfast, Hermione and Elaine went back to their bedroom to catch up on sleep.
It was said that the two of them played very late last night.
After returning from Elwyn's dormitory, Elaine did not go to sleep, and could not help but "retaliate" against Hermione.
When he saw them this morning, both of them looked like they did not sleep well.
As for what they did last night, Hermione simply said that they tossed around in bed for a long time …
Vampires were night owls who were excited at night, energetic at night, and sick during the day.
No one could deny that Elaine was really good at tormenting people.
Before Corin left this morning, he kindly reminded Elwyn to be careful of Elaine.
They left without saying goodbye at the party last night, which made her very angry, and she kept muttering about "revenge".
Needless to say, Elwyn had already suffered Elaine's revenge …
During this year's Christmas holiday, almost all the students of Hogwarts chose to go home for the holidays.
After breakfast, only five students, Elwyn, Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Elaine, and some staff were left in the castle.
There was still no trace of Dumbledore, and no one knew when he would return.
When there was no one around, Harry immediately repeated the conversation he overheard last night to Ron.
With the end of the Christmas party, Ron had now completely returned to his "normal" state.
Probably only Elaine still refused to forgive him, but the two of them did not have much communication to begin with.
"It's strange that Snape wants to help Malfoy, isn't it?" Ron said, directing his knights to attack Harry's soldiers. "Why is Snape helping Malfoy?"
"He said that for the sake of Malfoy's parents, he swore to Malfoy's mother and wanted to help him."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Elwyn also had some doubts and could not help but think about this question.
He remembered that Snape seemed to have made an "unbreakable oath" with Malfoy's mother, Narcissa. Snape used this magic to ensure the safety of Malfoy, and if Malfoy failed, he would complete the task of Lord Voldemort, which was to kill Dumbledore.
That should be the case, but neither Snape nor Malfoy mentioned this last night.
That's strange. Did they not make an unbreakable oath?
Or was it because Snape was too careful and did not mention it?
Elwyn recalled that they probably did not make an oath. After Snape said that he made an oath to Malfoy's mother last night, Malfoy's answer was that he did not believe in unbinding oaths. If there was an unbreakable oath, he would not have said so.
Because an unbreakable oath could not be violated, and the price of violating it was death.
It seemed that after Bellatrix was caught and brought to Azkaban, some things had changed.
For the sake of their past relationship, after Malfoy received this impossible task from Lord Voldemort, Narcissa still asked Snape for help. He was the only one who could help Draco, but without the strong Bellatrix's participation, there would naturally be no unbreakable oath.
"It's a pity that you didn't hear what Malfoy was doing."
"No way. This is the key point. He refused to tell Snape," said Harry.
After a moment of silence, he turned to look at Elwyn, "Elwyn, do you have any guesses?"
"There are many possibilities, but there is no way to verify them," responded Elwyn.
His plan was to let things develop and let Malfoy fix the Lost Cabinet.
But he still needed to be careful, because many things had changed.
"From the information that can be confirmed so far, Malfoy has become a Death Eater, and Lord Voldemort gave him a task." Harry continued. This was what they had discussed in the empty classroom last night. "A task that must be completed in school. This is something that other Death Eaters can't do because they can't come to Hogwarts. Malfoy's student status can provide him with this convenience. Now let's imagine, what kind of task needs to be completed in school? "
Elwyn sighed. The latter part was completely Hermione's original words.
He felt that as long as there was enough time, Hermione would be able to analyze the truth.
For example, why did Snape suspect that Malfoy planned the attack on Katy? Although Malfoy denied that he did it, Snape's suspicion itself spoke volumes. This meant that the task Malfoy received from Lord Voldemort was related to the attack.
In other words, Malfoy's task was to kill someone.
From the looks of it, the only people in the school who were worthy of Lord Voldemort's killing were Elwyn, Harry, and Dumbledore.
If she analyzed them one by one, she would be able to reach the final conclusion...
The reasoning process here made sense. As long as Hermione was given enough time and hints, she would be able to deduce the truth. Elwyn felt that there was a need to discuss his plan with Hermione.
Fortunately, Harry and Ron had not thought of this yet.
"Do you think his task is to find something?" Ron said, seeming to have thought of something. "For example, there is a powerful weapon hidden in the school. The Black Devil wants it, so he ordered Malfoy to bring it to him. Do you still remember the analysis by Fred and George last semester? A powerful weapon developed by the Order of the Phoenix! "
Weapon, another weapon?!
Umrich and Foggy's Ministry of Magic once believed in this theory. They firmly believed that Dumbledore had secretly created a weapon against them in the Hogwarts, but in the end, she only found a giant in the Forbidden Forest. She was also imprisoned by Gloop for so long that she suffered great physical and psychological trauma.
Well, in a sense, for her, this was indeed a powerful weapon.
