...... He now seemed to have completely refused to communicate with her. The topic of the real Lily could no longer shake him. So, what else could she do to make him be able to think of her or something else in the future, even if she wasn't there, or wasn't on his side, and stop being so hesitant to die?!

If you want to forcibly raise your influence in his mind to a point that he can't ignore in a short period of time, you really should-

It should be so straightforward that it can be done to the point of being terrifying, right?!

"You can suspect that the stars are flames......"

She took a deep breath and made up her mind. Perhaps because she was saying an extremely important line that must not fail, her voice trembled slightly.

"Doubt that the sun will move ......"

Can I still hope that the most primitive, the most basic, the most sincere method will make you feel guilty in those moments when you think of this scene—of this poem?

"Doubting the truth is a lie—"

Surely, it will work, right? Because I've put all my sincerity, all my hopes—all my acting skills, and can you hear what I'm trying to convey to you in these few lines?

"But ......"

But—listen to it. Severus, listen to what I really want to convey to you behind the lines of these verses——?

That is, even if there has ever been sincerity or falsehood, it is necessary to ...... Something more important than everything?

That's the life of an innumerable number of people, the weight of an entire world -- something that would have died if you had simply won, but if you died, it might have just as well?!

Snape's arm on the handle stiffened. His instinct told him that these words were too strange and that there must be something wrong with them, but there was a sudden and almost timid feeling in his heart that he did not dare to ask any more, for fear that he would get an answer that he did not want to hear.

However, uncontrollably, he felt that his breathing became much heavier for a moment, and that fear of fear actually expanded a little, mixed with a certain mood similar to apprehension and bewilderment, and for a moment pressed the words of rebuke and resistance that he should have spoken back into his chest, and he could not speak; he subconsciously clenched the door, and felt that his whole body seemed to be because of this strange, weak, Escaping the usual reaction, she tensed like a fully drawn bow, as if she were about to snap as soon as she uttered another word that was out of place.

...... However, perhaps because she sensed the aura that emanated from him that was on the verge of the collapse of patience, she let him go without warning.

Behind him, she choked for no apparent reason, and then her tone took a sharp turn, and the strange tension in her tone suddenly vanished, and suddenly became gentle, and it no longer sounded as strange and incomprehensible as it had been a few seconds ago.

“...... But everything I say to you today is undeceptive and sincere. She quickened her pace and hurriedly, scribbling to the abrupt end of her remarks and laughing awkwardly.

It's terrible. She almost seemed to have made things out of control in no time. Or - the shocking education she threw out was like an endangered cure, and if she didn't let go, his nerves seemed to be about to break in the next second.

It must have been the Gryffindor side of her personality that suddenly jumped out. For a moment, this indomitable, reckless bravery suddenly dominated her, prompting her to utter such revealing words like a ghost.

It's stupid. She thought that her recklessness would probably scare away the current Headmaster of Hogwarts, who had an astonishing instinct but never intended to ignore her.

But she guessed wrong.

His right hand grasped the door, but he didn't open it immediately. He seemed to pause for a second, then finally looked back at her again.

And this glance surprised her.

She had never seen him look so tired and pale. After losing all ridicule and indifference, his expression was empty and lonely, as if his life had become as broken as a moth-eaten tree, and there was no hope.

This discovery made her heart soften, with a faint pain.

After personally issuing the Avada Curse to the old headmaster whom he once thought was the only one he could trust and rely on, he had no one to rely on in this world, and he had to rely on his meager strength to continue to move forward unswervingly in the darkness;

Perhaps when he chose this path of double agent, he was under a lot of pressure, he had to bear it silently alone, chewing on the hardships that he did not understand in the dark, stubbornly rejecting the occasional friendliness and warmth of others, and now, when the final end was about to come, heavier promises and responsibilities were pressed on his shoulders, forcing him to relive the pain that he could not forget, and clamoring for him to pay an even more unimaginable price.

How could such a heavy weight never crush him?

Willow Quan had been imagining what he was thinking as he collapsed on the floor of the screaming shack, blood gushing from the wound on his neck. She just couldn't think of it. The only thing she knew for sure was that he probably didn't have the fear of death at that time. Although this was a sudden death that was not within his expectations, he may feel relief, relief, surprise, or a little unwillingness...... But he should still be calm. He's the kind of guy who hits the south wall and doesn't look back. Although he may have regrets, in the end, he should not regret his choice.

She remembered the way he had just said, "I'm not afraid of death." And that fateful summer night last year, before leaving the office and heading to the Astronomy Tower, he calmly replied to her, "I have nothing to fear." He was always like this, no matter what was going to happen, no matter what hardships and partings he was going to face, his face was always calm and cold, and his tone of answer was melancholy and firm.

He wasn't afraid of losing, but he didn't allow himself to fail. He had done something wrong, and from that time on, he had learned to carry the heaviest responsibility in the world on his shoulders. The people who traveled with him, those who guided him, and those he loved gradually separated from him and left him along the way, and in the end, he was left alone, carrying all the scorn and misunderstanding, hostility and hatred, walking in the deepest darkness, trying to split the boundless night, to expel this infinite despair, and to obtain a ray of light.

She thought of that Halloween night seventeen years ago, the house that was filled with smoke and dust and destroyed by spells. She walked slowly up the stairs, bypassing James' lifeless body, and at the door of the nursery, she saw Snape hugging the dead Brille, the real Lily, and weeping bitterly.

From then on, his only purpose in life was to protect her son and eliminate the Dark Lord who had killed the man he loved. She would never be out of his sight, but that would not stop her determination.

Whether he accepts it or not, whether he appreciates it or not, she must help him get it done. Even if it wasn't for the requirements of the mission, even if it was out of her sincerity, which he didn't believe, she wanted him to live well. He had been trudging alone in the darkness for too long, and he deserved to see the final victory. He doesn't need pity, he is only true to himself, so she should follow his example, not for any reason, but only to her heart.

Something rushed to her heart. She took a step forward and whispered to him, "All will be fine, Severus. ”

He looked surprised, so surprised that he could barely believe his ears. His eyes blinked several times, and he asked rhetorically with a slightly suspicious expression, "...... What do you say?!"

Maybe no one had ever said anything like that to him.

Once this thought rushed into Liu Quan's heart, it took root there, forcing a weak and gentle light and shadow in her eyes. Liu Quan's expression softened, staring at the black-robed figure, blinking, trying to blink away the mist that ran out of his eyes uninterestingly.

His gaze did not avoid her this time, and there was no emptiness in his eyes, only disbelief, and she saw it all clearly, and a warm smile slowly unfolded on her face.

"Everything is going to be fine, Severus. I promise. "So I beg you to live well." ”

There was a confused expression on Snape's face for a moment, one that even made him look a little weak, as if there was finally a crack in the solid, dark iron armor he had been wrapped around him, but he quickly realized his mistake and straightened up again, with a look of absurdity and incredulity, a familiar taunt on his lips.

"Naive Gryffindor!" he scoffed mercilessly, "always believing in these blind optimisms for no reason!"

Liu Quan raised an eyebrow and looked at him firmly, not flinching at all.

"You don't have prophetic blood, like House Trelawney...... Snape continued to speak harshly, but Willow Springs' hand suddenly raised his hand to interrupt him.

"No, Severus. Her eyes were bright and inspiring, conveying a certain determination to move forward.

"I may not have the ancestry of a prophet, but what I just said is not some kind of blindly optimistic nonsense. She stared earnestly into Snape's eyes and said word for word.

As soon as Snape's gaze made contact with her, he looked away for a moment. He turned his face away a little unnaturally, and strode out the door, muttering as he went, "Not nonsense?

He opened the door and stepped out, just as he was about to disappear outside the door, when he heard the clear voice of the fake Lily behind him, echoing in the silent eighth-floor corridor.

"That's a prophecy. Severus is a prophecy that will come true. ”
