Snape's eyes were empty again, apparently Occlumency was working again. He mocked himself coldly,"Me? Dumbledore, you've lost your mind! You actually want me to guide a child to become better! If you hadn't perjured yourself for me in the Ministry of Magic's courtroom, I'd be in Azkaban right now! You want a dark Magus to teach a student to become better?”
Dumbledore looked at Snape, who seemed to have given up on himself. He sighed, got up, and patted him on the shoulder." Severus, I never thought that just because you can use Dark Magic, you must be a Dark Wizard! Instead, it was to see if he could restrain himself after learning black magic. Look at me, I'm considered a light Magus by the outside world, but that doesn't mean I don't know black magic! I can even proudly say that I understand them better than those dark Magi!”
Dumbledore took out the pile of cockroaches again and asked unwillingly," You really don't want to try it? Severus, it's made of chocolate, with a little butter, and it's delicious!”
Snape gave a disgusted glance at the pile of cockroaches crawling all over the table! " Thank you, I don't need it!"”
"Sigh, what a pity! Many people were always confused by its appearance and forgot that it was just a very delicious snack.”said Dumbledore, looking disappointed. I have to take care of Fox. She's been a little anxious recently because a very beautiful cat of her own kind has come to school. She always wants to make friends, but she's very shy and doesn't dare to go. She's been a little haggard recently!”
Snape asked in surprise,"Dumbledore, you said there was another Phoenix in the school!?”
Dumbledore nodded, his face full of smiles." It's Peter York's companion. Fawkes sensed him when he brought Phoenix into the school! It was a newborn phoenix, very beautiful! If I wasn't so sure that the Dumbledore family hadn't lost their bloodline, I would have thought that Peter was one of us!”
Dumbledore watched as Snape's eyes grew brighter and brighter. He said in a bewitching tone," Think about it. If you can gain Little Peter's trust, those phoenix tears, shed feathers, and even phoenix blood will be easy to obtain! Unlike now, where you can only catch Fox and take advantage of him. Fox is very resistant to you now and will run away whenever he sees you!”
The more Snape listened, the more tempted he became. Phoenix's Tears could heal dying people. It was very precious! Phoenix feathers, on the other hand, could not only be used as the core of a wand, but also as a potion material! As for the Phoenix blood, it was just a thought. That was the lifeblood of the Phoenix! If you wanted to covet it, a phoenix was a magical creature that could fight against a dragon or snake monster. It would let you feel its strength!
Then, he came back to his senses and pretended to be calm." You don't have to worry about that. Peter York is my student after all. I will take good care of him."”
Dumbledore smiled in satisfaction, then reminded him," You just need to guide him on his path of choice. You don't need to get too involved! This child is very smart and very sensitive. We can't let him misunderstand and be wary of us.
I had thought more than once that if I had not been wary of Voldemort from the beginning, would his future have been different? This time, I want to choose again and choose to believe. I believe Peter York won't let me down!”
Snape sneered and said disdainfully," Put away your sympathy. The Dark Lord will not turn over a new leaf because of your words! As for Peter, he was a natural Slytherin. He was mature and talented, and he could always turn the situation to his advantage!
Look at the current Slytherin. In just over a month, other than a few diehards, everyone else has chosen to accept him. This is not something an eleven-year-old child can do!
I can't control his thoughts. You'd better pray that he won't grow crooked and that you can live for another few decades! Otherwise, no one can restrict him!"
Dumbledore laughed." Maybe I can consider asking Nick for some longevity potion to let me live for another two years?”
Snape's eyes lit up at the mention of the Elixir of Longevity. As a Potion Master, especially someone who was obsessed with potion research, he had always been eager to study the Elixir of Longevity! However, the raw material of this potion was the very precious and unique sorcerer's stone! The only current owner of the Sorcerer's Stone, Nicolas Flamel, had gone into seclusion. If it weren't for Dumbledore's close friends, they wouldn't have been able to get in touch with him.
He said impatiently," Dumbledore, you can go to Master Nicolas Flamel and ask for some longevity potion. If you let me study it, I might be able to develop a longevity potion that doesn't require the Sorcerer's Stone!”
Dumbledore shook his head and sighed." Nick contacted me recently and said that he was prepared to give up using the Sorcerer's Stone in the next few years. He has lived for a long time and wants to embark on an unknown journey!”
Snape was very surprised to hear this."The Sorcerer's Stone can make you immortal! Why did he not want to continue living? Isn't it good to be immortal?"
Dumbledore shook his head." Although the Sorcerer's Stone can make people immortal, it only makes people immortal. It can't stop the body from aging! Nick had lived for more than 600 years, and his body was very fragile. A sneeze could break his bones!
This kind of longevity had already tormented Nick! If it wasn't for his love for alchemy that allowed him to persevere until now, he might have found a cemetery and buried himself long ago!”
