Chapter Twenty-Seven: Intensifying
Snape didn't tell Gloria if he had gone to the Dark Lord's party, but Gloria guessed that he should have been, because she found that Snape's dark magic seemed to have improved by leaps and bounds recently, not that his talent was not good, but it seemed to open the door to dark magic from another direction, what kind of effect would be produced by different starting styles, the different tones and lengths of the chant, and the different intensity of the magic, which Snape had not studied before, or rather, had not thought about it in this regard.
Gloria took him to the Room of Requirement, which he loved very much, and used to be used to boil potions, but lately he used to practice dark arts.
"Shadowless!"
Gloria was a little stunned, looking at the deep imprint left on the wall, she walked over and touched it lightly with her fingers, the black magic remaining in the traces continued to corrode her skin, recently her body that could not be contaminated with black magic seemed to be more and more sensitive to this, she just felt, she could feel the malice left in this trace, it can be imagined, if it hits a person, it must not be healed with potions, you can only wait for the magic elements to gradually disappear and slowly heal or use counterspells.
Snape didn't notice the slight blackening of Gloria's fingertips, his eyes filled with reverence, fanaticism, and pride, "Look, Gloria, I created it myself. ”
Gloria quietly withdrew her hand, "Amazing, Seaver, your current understanding of the dark arts is amazing. ”
His creativity was always so powerful, whether it was potions or dark arts, he was always good at innovation, and Gloria was a little fascinated to think that he was a genius.
Snape's face showed an almost hideous fanaticism, "Soon, soon I will no longer be looked down upon by anyone, I will be seen by everyone, I will stand by you in the name of righteousness." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Gloria with excitement, and Gloria smiled and nodded at him, she knew that she couldn't stop Snape's pursuit and desire for dark magic, status, and power, otherwise he wouldn't have entered Slytherin as a half-blood.
Gloria looked at the boy in front of her, and unexpectedly thought of the him in her dream, he loved Lily with all his heart, Lily exchanged death for his sobriety, no, maybe not sobriety, just regret, when he came to himself, how could he expect a few words to change his mind?
Gloria didn't want to argue with him anymore because of the Dark Lord, so she simply didn't show any thoughts, and seemed indifferent to him going to see the Dark Lord, but Snape clearly felt her dislike, so even if she went to see the Dark Lord, she didn't tell her, and the two never talked about the Dark Lord again.
The days went by in the situation where Gloria turned a blind eye and Snape pretended to be confused, and the whole Hogwarts knew about this couple, they went in and out together, and Lily and Potter seemed to have made progress recently, Potter never troubled him again after Snape and Gloria were together, and occasionally met only to taunt each other, but Potter never won.
In the wizarding world, the war between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters intensified, and Gloria found that the number of times she saw Dumbledore at Hogwarts was getting less and less, and it was simply not a big deal.
The dead need to be buried, the living need to be appeased, and Gryffindor is much more reckless than the cunning and treachery of the Death Eaters, making Dumbledore seem to be torn apart to suppress them.
