Hogwarts, in the enclosed headmaster's room, Dumbledore was sitting upright in his seat, reading the letters from the parents with great interest.

From time to time, owls would fly in through the open windows with red roaring letters, and then a shrill roar would ring through the headmaster's room.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, Dumbledore raised his hand and waved his wand, closing the open window, and more owls were intercepted from the window.

The roaring in the headmaster's room stopped abruptly, and the roaring letter was reduced to ashes in an instant.

Moments later, the door to the Headmaster's office was opened, and Snape, dressed in black robes, entered, took a golden potion from his pocket and placed it on the table, then pushed it back in front of Dumbledore.

"Your medicine!" Snape said coldly.

"Thank you, Severus, thanks to you!" Dumbledore nodded, took the reagent, gestured to Snape, and drank it down.

"This is the last dose of medicine, and the next time, when the injury comes back, there is nothing I can do to suppress it!" Snape's words were sharp.

"Severus, I remember you told me that a recurrence of this injury wouldn't kill me immediately, would it?" Dumbledore's face remained calm, and he put down the empty potion bottle he had drunk, looked at Snape, and asked.

"Indeed...... It won't kill you immediately, but it will spread all over your body in just a few months, and trust me, it's never easier than dying! Snape said sarcastically.

"A few months? How long is it? Dumbledore asked softly as he looked at his blackened right hand. I mean, its effects don't deprive me of my most basic actions and spellcasting abilities......"

"About two months? Trimester? Snape said uncertainly.

"It's shorter!" Dumbledore shook his head, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly spoke with a solemn expression. "Maybe I have a way to delay a little longer......"

"A few more days or a few days doesn't matter at all...... If you really had a way to alleviate it, you wouldn't be delaying until now, would you? Snape said impatiently, even thinking that the opening feast at Hogwarts next semester might turn into Dumbledore's funeral.

"We shouldn't think so, Severus, if it's arranged, even the last few months will be enough for us to do something!" Dumbledore said in a relaxed tone.

"Like ending the Dark Lord's life?" Snape looked at Dumbledore with a slight mockery, unable to understand where the other party's optimistic form came from, and he didn't think that things would change if the other party lived a little longer.

Dumbledore didn't mean to reply, but continued to ask. "What's going on with Voldemort?"

"Thanks to us, he's alive now!" Snape said with an unnatural expression.

Originally, Voldemort's injuries would require at least half a month of recuperation, but two days ago, Dumbledore suddenly found him, gave him a few phoenix tears, and asked him to configure a special potion to treat Voldemort's injuries......

"What exactly do you want to do? Voldemort's injuries were not minor this time, and we could have stopped for a while during this time. Snape's tone was blunt.

He couldn't understand why Dumbledore wanted to save Voldemort, and when he confirmed Voldemort's injuries, he even thought it was a golden opportunity to launch a surprise attack and kill him!

"If you could have killed him so easily, Voldemort wouldn't have survived today......" Dumbledore naturally understood Snape's doubts, and explained in a deep voice.

Wizards like them couldn't have escaped with their lives in a single battle, and Voldemort was able to fight back and win easily, even in the face of dozens of well-trained Aurors at the same time......

The reason why he was injured this time was entirely because Voldemort had just been resurrected and was too inflated, and with this lesson, the other party would only be more careful.

"Even so, for Potter's safety, we shouldn't have cured him!" Snape paced anxiously around the Headmaster's room.

After Voldemort recovered from his injuries, he was furious and immediately gathered the Death Eaters to plan a revenge operation, which Snape regretted a little.

"There's no way he's going to find out where Harry is!" Dumbledore spoke, and he didn't think Voldemort would ever want to meet Harry again until he figured out the connection between the two phoenix wands.

"What about the others?" Snape asked again.

"I'm glad you have everyone else in mind, Severus!" Dumbledore looked at him in surprise, with a hint of surprise in his tone. "But I've reorganized the Order of the Phoenix, and most of those who need to be protected are already in safe places......"

"Mostly? That is, there are exceptions? This time it was Snape's turn to be surprised.

Dumbledore stood up, frowning, and raised his tone slightly. "Althea! Hals's mother, whom I had persuaded the other day to join the Order of the Phoenix, did not hesitate to reject my offer, more simply than I had expected! ”

"She probably thought her son was up to the Dark Lord...... Snape sneered.

He'd already met with the Death Eaters yesterday, so it was clear that some of them were hiding in Tumbledown Alley.

Not only that, Voldemort has been planning to expand his power in the shadows, in addition to enlisting the Dementors to liberate the imprisoned believers, the dark wizards in Tumbledown Alley are also a good choice.

If Althea and Ivan continue to stay in Tumbledown Alley, it won't be long before they meet Voldemort.

Dumbledore shook his head, he didn't think that Althea would be so big, Ivan was personally involved in that battle, and he should have a clear understanding of Voldemort's strength.

So he originally thought that after leaving school, the child would take the initiative to come to him for help, or that Althea would be able to change his mind temporarily, but none of these were any, and Ivan left very simply, which made him very curious.

"As far as I know, there's only one kind of magic that can keep you safe from Voldemort's pursuit......" Dumbledore muttered to himself.

"You mean the Damour Loyalty Curse?" Snape paused, quickly thinking of what Dumbledore was referring to.

Dumbledore didn't say a word, he did guess so, but he wasn't sure.

After all, the Loyalty Charm is an extremely advanced form of magic, and it is not even recorded in the forbidden section of Hogwarts, so they have no way to learn it......
