Snape, the Sunshine of Hogwarts

If this drags on day after day, he fears he'll never be able to make a move!

Tonight is the night when a decision must be made!

He suddenly pushed open Patty's bedroom door.

The girl sitting in the wheelchair looked at Blood Nyx and paused for a moment, clearly noticing that there was something wrong with his body.

Patty's eyes showed panic.

"Blood Nymph! What's wrong with you!"

"I delivered what I promised to deliver." Xue Ni's tone was urgent, and his steps began to falter, but he still insisted on moving forward.

He leaned against the wall and walked up to Patty, his eyes narrowing and a pair of sharp teeth slowly growing longer in his mouth!

"We can't wait any longer, Patty! I'm afraid I'll lose the courage to lift my wand again. We have to settle this today! We have to settle this tonight!"

His voice turned into a howl like a wild beast, and his skin turned as white as paper!

The hand holding the wand trembled uncontrollably. He tried to utter the incantation for the Oblivion Charm, but after only uttering one sound, his body went limp and he fell toward Patty!

He crashed into Patty, causing the wheelchair to tip over as well.

The two rolled over, their bodies overlapping. Blood Nyx's wand fell to the side, and he was trembling uncontrollably all over!

"Blood Nymph... are you a vampire?"

Patty's shocked voice reached Bloody's ears.

He didn't look at the girl, but instead covered his face in anguish, curled up, and cried like a child.

"Waaah! Don't look at me! Don't look at me! Go away! Go away, Patty! Get out of here! Get out!"

Patty didn't move; she simply opened her arms to Xueni, embraced his head, and held him close.

The warmth, carrying the unique fragrance of a young girl, enveloped Blood Ninja, further igniting his desire for something within him!

In a daze, he inexplicably reached for Patty's neck and opened his mouth. His instinctive thirst for blood caused his sharp teeth to bite into the girl's delicate skin!

Even so, Patty still did not let go of Bloody's arms.

She lowered her head, burying her face in Xue Ni's black hair, and murmured in a voice softer than the spring breeze.

"It's alright, Blood Nymph, nothing will happen to you."

Blood Nyx suddenly regained consciousness, gasping for breath in terror, unable to believe what he was doing!

Patina's voice rang out again, calming his spirit that was on the verge of collapse.

"I told you about it, didn't I? In the Cotswolds, my grandfather used to have a very big farm there. There was a beautiful red windmill on the farm, the sky was very blue, and between the wheat fields and pastures, there was a huge flower field filled with white tulips."

"That's a place that only exists in fairy tales; I lived there when I was a child."

“Every year during the autumn harvest season, my grandfather would make me a straw hat and let me walk with a dog named William, running around with him in the wheat fields and flower fields.”

"After I became disabled, he was the only person who didn't despise me. He had a big fight with my father and said he would take me away and let me live with him from now on."

"But because of my mother's death, he fell very ill after returning home. He passed away a few months later."

Bloodni's body stopped trembling, and his head was buried in Patty's neck. In the end, his sharp teeth failed to pierce the girl's skin.

His intense emotions allowed him to suppress his wild instincts, and he held Patty tightly in his arms.

Under the moonlight, two young but special people embraced each other.

"I meant to say, Blood Nymph."

"You're just like him; you don't care if I'm disabled, and I won't care what you are either."

"We are no different."

"We are all outcasts."

"They are all undignified outcasts."

It was an exceptionally quiet night.

In the empty, spacious room, apart from the two people embracing on the floor, Severus, dressed in a black robe, watched this scene in silence.

Harry, standing next to him, felt a lump in his throat.

Yet, they didn't understand why they were sad.

Chapter 32 This is Dumbledore's Dilemma

"I can't do that! I can't just erase myself from her memory like that! That would kill her, it would be the same as killing her with my own hands!"

Bloodny didn't even know how he left Bardemington Manor. He staggered all the way to his best friend Wolper and asked him to buy blood plasma for him, saying this almost in despair.

"Because of me, she finally had some attachment to this world, but now you're asking me to take that attachment away with my own hands! I can't do that! I'd rather kill myself!"

"I'm the only one left to stand by her, and she's the only one who accepts me! You have to help me, and you have to help her, Elder! Please! I know that she approached me back then to write that book that uses vampires to grab attention, to make money! But I also understand that we're already very good friends, right?"

Volpe shoved the bottle of blood-replenishing potion he'd bought from Knockout Alley into Bloodny's mouth, finally silencing him.

"You're hopeless!"

Bloodni slumped into the chair. He finished the blood-replenishing potion, and the vampire characteristics on his body gradually faded, returning him to his normal human form.

"I know I'm a hopeless idiot, but I have to do it! I have to do it!"

His face was devoid of frustration, dejection, and timidity; his gaze, which had never been so resolute, met Volpe's eyes.

Volpe stared at him for more than ten seconds before finally letting out a helpless sigh.

"Okay, okay! I was so unlucky to have chosen you as the subject of my book!"

"Now that she knows you're a vampire and says she doesn't mind, can you two get married?"

His blunt question left Xueni's mind blank for five seconds before he came to his senses, at which point he began to stutter.

"No, I haven't. And even if she really comes from such a wealthy family, her parents would never agree to me."

"You told me that her parents didn't like her, and she didn't like her parents either. She has no attachment to her family, right?"

Volp stared at Bloodny and asked.

Xueni nodded quickly.

"Then let her legitimately disappear from Muggle society!"

As one of the students who joined the Slughorn Slug Club, Volpe's brain was naturally much more useful than Bloodny's.

"As long as she gets away from the Muggles first, the Aurors will have a hard time finding out about violating the Secrets Act, and then no one can interfere with how things develop between you and her."

"But how can we reasonably make her disappear?" Blood Nymph asked hesitantly. "If it's an oblivion spell, we can't do that; it requires a master who is proficient in this art."

"Why use the Oblivion Charm?" Wolpe glanced at him sideways. "Death is the best way to disappear."

Bloody was stunned, staring wide-eyed at Volp.

"Don't look at me like that. It's not that hard for a wizard to make a Muggle think someone is dead."

"The simplest way is to get a bottle of Hellfire Potion; that stuff works better than anything else!"

Upon hearing this, Blood Nymph finally realized what was happening!

"You're practically Merlin reincarnated! Elder! No! Even Merlin didn't have a brain as brilliant as yours!"

He stood up and began pacing excitedly back and forth in the room.

“Yes! That’s right! We can stage a hoax for Patty’s family, making them think she’s dead! Then, after their funeral, we can sneak her away!”

"That way she can successfully escape from that place, and the Aurors won't suspect a dead person of violating the Secret Service Act!"

"Let's go! Let's get ready now!"

Volpe just stared at him.

"Where are you going to get the potion to revive hell?"

Blood Nymph's body stiffened.

He was a penniless pauper who used to make a living by petty theft because his vampire identity made it impossible for him to find work in the magical world.

“Elder, could you…” Xueni looked at his friend awkwardly, “deduct it from the money you gave me after the agreement was written?”

"Still deducting! Blood-replenishing medicine! Blood-flavored candy! And a whole bunch of other random things, didn't you say you'd deduct any of them from that money!"

Volpe was practically pointing his finger at Bloodny and cursing him as he angrily pounded on the pile of unsent emails on his desk.

"Not only did I not finish my book, I didn't earn a single penny, and I still have to write letters to all sorts of famous figures in the wizarding world!"

“This one! To Lucius Malfoy! This one! To Horace Slughorn! And this one! To Barty Crouch! And this one! To Albus Dumbledore! I don’t have Gilderoy Lockhart’s fame! I need to beg them to promote me, and I have a lot more to do!”

"I'm out of money! I can't afford to buy you any more Hellfire Elixir! It's common, but it's not cheap either!"

After listening to his words, Xue Ni did not plead any further. He remained silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and nodded.

"I understand. I can't just think about asking others for help. This is my own business, and I will find a way to solve it myself!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Looking at his resolute back, even a fool could guess that he must have some unreliable and crooked idea.

He grabbed Blood Nymph by the back of his collar.

"Wait, where are you going?"

Blood Nymph gritted his teeth and said.

"Some organs from vampires are high-value contraband. If I go to Knockturn Alley, I should be able to sell them for a good price!"

Wolpe suddenly felt like his head was about to explode.

This kid is absolutely serious. He's made up his mind that he'd sell a kidney to save that girl!

"Stop, stop, stop! You don't need to make such a huge sacrifice!" Volpe stopped him, covering his forehead.

“In a few days, my former Potions professor, Slughorn, has invited me to his club banquet. I will bring you along; he should have no shortage of Hellfire Potion.”

Xueni looked at him awkwardly.

"Will Mr. Slughorn give us a bottle for free?"

"He won't give it to you, but you can steal it."

The scene froze at that moment; Bloodny, Volpe, the whole world seemed to stand still.

Then, this world of memories belonging to Blood Nymph began to fast-forward.

Even without looking ahead, Severus and Harry could guess what happened next.

Bloodny visited Patty several more times. Fearing that he might lose control of his blood-sucking instincts again, he instructed Patty to get a clove of garlic from the servants and put it in the drawer.

Once he goes berserk again, that thing can banish him.

He didn't tell Patty the whole plan, but repeatedly asked her if she wanted to leave. Only after receiving an affirmative answer did Heni assure her.

I definitely will. I will take her back to the fairytale-like flower field where she lived as a child, and we will clean her grandfather's grave together.

After that, he and Volpe succeeded.

They successfully stole a bottle of Hellfire Potion from Slughorn, but accidentally stole a special, potent medicine instead.

Bloody gave Patty the bottle of medicine one night.

The girl, who didn't even care about life or death, completely trusted him and drank the medicine without hesitation.

However, they underestimated the connections of Muggle nobles, especially a duke.

Patty's mysterious death even attracted the attention of the Muggle Prime Minister.

The head of government is an exception to the Secrets Act. The Prime Minister knows that there are wizards and magic in this world. The strange thing about Patty’s death, which makes him suspicious, leads him to contact the Minister of Magic, Millison Bagnore.

Then, the matter escalated completely!

The Aurors arrived at Bardemington Manor and immediately determined that Patty's consumption of the Living Hell Potion was highly unusual, concluding that a wizard was attempting to poison someone.

The case was widely reported in newspapers and magazines, and a letter of condemnation from the Muggle Prime Minister to the Minister of Magic was also made public, causing a great uproar throughout the British magical community.

Even at this point, the one who started it all – Blood Nymph – is still unwilling to give up!

He clearly remembered what he had promised Patty.

They realized that the bottle of Hellfire potion they had stolen was defective, and that ordinary people simply couldn't concoct an antidote.
