Hogwarts: Undercover Death Eater Replaces the Dark Lord

Only then did he remember that when Malfoy pulled his wrist just now, he seemed to have pulled something off.

Lycos subconsciously raised his wrist to see if he was injured.

The next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank——

Just on the inside of his left forearm, there was a pale red, ferocious skull with a huge poisonous snake spewing out of the skull's mouth, like a strange tongue.

This is……

Dark Mark!

This mark is a unique mark of Death Eaters, and those who possess this mark are often core Death Eaters - this is because in the entire wizarding world, only Voldemort can inflict the Dark Mark on others.

Lycos's expression turned extremely ugly.

"I told you, you are injured!"

Malfoy's triumphant voice suddenly rang out, interrupting Lycos's thoughts: "You're so pale, and why are you still taking up a seat here? I suggest you go see the school doctor..."

Lycos didn't say anything, but just hid his left hand in the wide sleeve of his school robe without leaving any trace, and then silently picked up the bandage on the ground.

"The seat is for you."

After saying this, he turned around and left the end of the long table.

Now is not the time to get tangled up with this young master. The most important thing is to hide the Dark Mark on my arm...

Lycos walked down the aisle, quickly and hastily wrapping the bandage back on his left arm, while calmly looking up at Quirrell in the professor's chair.

He is still timid and tries hard to build relationships with other professors... his acting is really good.

Lecos was now finally certain that Quirrell had called him to his office for no other reason than that Voldemort wanted to assign him the next task.

Is it appropriate to do something so exciting right after traveling through time?

Chapter 4 Slytherin Common Room

Young wizards were always in a mess at parties, and the previous dispute between Lycos and Malfoy attracted no attention at all.

After all, ever since the prankster red-haired twins arrived at Hogwarts, the professors and students' thresholds of surprise and tolerance have been raised infinitely by them...

Lycos looked around the Slytherin table, and while no one was paying attention to him, he found an empty seat a little further away and sat down.

The food on the table is still very rich. If you knock on the golden plate and read out the name of the dish, the corresponding dish will pop out of the plate.

But Lycos was in no mood to eat at this time.

The bandage on his left forearm was only wrapped a few times hastily and could come undone at any moment, revealing the Dark Mark underneath—

It's impossible to tie the knot with just one hand, so it's impossible to tie the bandage properly.

"Incarcerous."

At this moment, a cold voice sounded.

Lycos watched as the bandage on his left arm moved on its own, quickly tying into a beautiful bow that tightly wrapped his arm.

He looked up in surprise and saw a handful of long, soft hair like golden silk threads flowing onto the table like a stream.

Only then did Lycos realize that the seat he had accidentally chosen was actually opposite the little blonde witch he had just seen when he was arguing with Malfoy.

"You don't look well. Do you need me to call Madam Pomfrey for you?" said the little blonde witch, putting her wand back into the pocket of her school robe.

Her voice was still cold and indifferent, without any trace of concern in her voice.

"It's okay, I'll be fine after a rest." Lycos shook his head and put his left arm back into his sleeve.

Then, he introduced himself with a natural expression, diverting the other person's attention away from his arm.

"Thank you for your help. I'm Lex Hayden, what's yours?"

"Cassandra Wally." The blonde witch nodded and looked away calmly.

Seeing that she had no intention of asking too many questions, Lycos felt a little relieved.

However, before he could completely relax, Cassandra's cold voice suddenly rang out again:

"If you have any questions, remember to ask the professor for help, don't try to figure it out on your own."

Lycos was stunned for a moment and looked at the little witch opposite again.

Cassandra's green eyes were just staring quietly at the dinner plate on the table. She showed no curiosity about the bandage on Lycos's arm, as if it was just a kind reminder.

"Okay." Lycos said.

Then, a long silence fell between the two of them, which seemed like a world away from the surrounding commotion.

In this silence, Lycos slowly chewed a piece of cheese, but in his heart he began to think about the feasibility of seeking the professor's help.

If he directly revealed his identity as a Death Eater, reported all the information about Voldemort to Dumbledore, and sought his protection, would it be safer than being an undercover agent cautiously?

Lycos suddenly realized that Voldemort had not yet recovered his strength, and perhaps this was the best chance to destroy him.

If we could gain Dumbledore's trust and use our foresight to quickly destroy all the Horcruxes, perhaps the danger that Hogwarts faced in the next few years would not have happened!

Glancing at Quirrell who was still acting timidly, Lycos quickly made up his mind.

……

"Very good, now that everyone has eaten and drunk enough, I would like to say a few more words to everyone——"

When Dumbledore stood up again, the food on all the plates disappeared at the same time, and only the food residue at the corners of the mouths of some little wizards could prove that they had just enjoyed a feast.

"At the beginning of the semester, I would like to give you a few reminders," said Dumbledore. "First-year students, please note that no students are allowed to enter the woods on campus. Some of our senior students should also remember this."

Lycos saw him glance at the Gryffindor urchins.

"Also, Mr. Filch, the caretaker, asked me to remind everyone not to perform magic in the corridors during class breaks;"

"The review of Quidditch players will be held in the second week of this semester. Students who are interested in participating in the college team please contact Mrs. Huo Qi."

"Finally, I must tell everyone - anyone who does not wish to suffer an unexpected, painful death, please do not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor."

When Dumbledore gave the last note, Lycos watched Quirrell's expression closely and noticed that his eyes suddenly changed.

But Lycos quickly looked away.

He had already decided to tell Dumbledore about Voldemort's information, so the corridor on the fourth floor used to protect the Philosopher's Stone became irrelevant.

"Now, before we all go to bed, let us sing the school song together!" said Dumbledore happily.

He flicked the wand in his hand lightly, and a long golden ribbon flew out from the tip of the wand, twisting and winding like a snake above the high dining table, forming lines of text.

As expected, the expressions of most professors and senior students froze.

"Everyone chooses their favorite tune." Dumbledore was very interested.

"Get ready, sing!"

……

After singing the tuneless Hogwarts school song with the senior students, Lycos stood with all the Slytherin freshmen and followed the fifth-year prefect to the Slytherin common room.

Unlike the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw common rooms, which are located high up in the tower, the Hufflepuff and Slytherin common rooms are located underground at Hogwarts.

The Slytherin common room is even more special, built directly on the bottom of the Black Lake. It takes nearly ten minutes to walk up the spiral staircase leading to the castle dungeon.

Along the way, green torches burned dimly on the rough stone walls, and from time to time, ghosts passed through the aisles, as if walking in a haunted house.

If the little wizards had not gathered together to offset a lot of the fear, some fragile freshmen might have been scared to tears.

"Remember, the password to the common room is 'blood'."

Walking into an arched underground corridor, the prefect stopped facing a wall.

After the command was given, a lifelike stone snake suddenly crawled up from the base of the wall, scaring the little wizards.

As the giant snake arched its huge body, a stone door suddenly appeared, and the snake's body bent into the door frame of the stone door, fixed on the wall.

"Come on, I'll give you a brief tour."

The freshmen followed the footsteps of the prefects and walked into the door of the Slytherin common room one after another.

However, no one noticed that a little black-haired wizard quietly left the queue of new students after taking down the password...

……

Chapter 5 Unbreakable Vow

When no one was paying attention, Lycos quietly left the freshman team.

Since he had already decided to report Voldemort's information, he naturally had to hand the information over to someone who was 100% reliable.

This wasn't a problem for Lycos, because he was familiar with the plot and knew which professors were trustworthy. He also knew the inside story and was willing to believe him.

One of the suitable candidates was not far from the Slytherin common room. Lycos had just passed by his office with the freshmen group not long ago.

"Dong dong dong."

Standing in the cold corridor, Lycos knocked on a door.

"It's break time now. If you have anything to say, go find the class monitor." A light, greasy voice came from behind the door, and the tone sounded very impatient.

"Professor, I have something very important to report to you." Lycos suppressed the nervousness in his heart and spoke.

I have to say that the professor inside the door is famous for his bad temper.

If the other good-tempered professors were not aware that Voldemort was not dead yet and that a password was required to go to Dumbledore's office, Lecos would never have chosen to face such a difficult professor.

With a creak, the door in front suddenly opened.

"You'd better have something really important." The light voice sounded again.

Lycos took a deep breath and slowly walked into the office.

The office was dim, and along the walls were shelves filled with large glass jars filled with slimy, strange, and disgusting things that looked like fragments of animals and plants floating in different colored potions.

A man with greasy hair and sallow skin stood up from behind a table piled high with bottles and jars.

He had a large hooked nose and a wide black robe fluttering behind him as he moved, making him look like a giant bat in the dim office.

"Good evening, Professor Snape." Lycos walked up to him and said calmly.
