HP Dual Masters and I had a blast in Hogwarts.

Chapter 76 Heartbroken by Severus Snape

[Jin: Host son, you've now turned your target Tom Marvolo Riddle into a vampire, and he can't even make Horcruxes anymore. Isn't that drastically disrupting the original storyline?]

As soon as we returned to real time, System Jin asked.

(Dear sponsor, let me ask you this: Am I in a romantic relationship with Tom Marvolo Riddle? Have I already successfully won over the character you provided? If the plot falls apart, so be it. Didn't you anticipate this situation when you brought me into this world?)

[Jin: Alright, host son, you've convinced me. It's all for the mission.]

(That's it, my sponsor. Now let's take a break and wait for Tom Marvolo Riddle's time to cool down before we go back again.)

I suddenly miss that lonely man. I wonder if he's eating and sleeping well while I'm not around.

Forget it, I'll go see him if I miss him. I'm not that sentimental. When I got to the cellar door, I remembered that the Filo network could be used in the church's office.

I haven't been here in a long time, so I don't know the password to open the door, or if I can get in.

As a result, I was able to walk into the church's office without any trouble. I didn't expect that he had kept the door open for me all along.

As I pushed open the door, a pungent smell of potions hit me, making me frown.

The room was dimly lit, with only a few oil lamps casting a faint glow that illuminated the surrounding bookshelves and lab benches.

The bookshelves were filled with all sorts of potion books and bottles and jars, containing colorful potions and herbs.

The lab bench was cluttered with various experimental instruments, such as crucibles, test tubes, and balances.

Thinking of how Severus often conducted potion experiments here, his figure appearing particularly lonely in the dim light, I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.

In the corner of the office stood a black desk, piled high with documents and books.

Behind the desk was a black chair, where Severus often sat grading students' assignments and researching potion recipes.

A portrait of Severus hangs on the wall next to the chair; his cold gaze sends chills down your spine.

But looking at this portrait makes me feel even more upset. Now all I want to do is go see him and touch him.

Even though he's my lover, I can't touch him. If I weren't the first person to establish a relationship through time travel and be stopped by the system, I would definitely not have sealed his memories like Riddle.

But thinking about it, there's nothing I can do. He's the first person I met after I transmigrated here.

At that time, it was because I was too weak to resist.

Why think so much? Right now, I just want to go see this man.

Pick up a handful of Floo Powder, walk into the fireplace, and teleport to Severus's house.

When I stepped out of the fireplace, I was surprised to find Severus sitting on the single sofa in the hall, holding a book and watching me appear.

The room was dimly lit, with only one light on. It was daytime, but it felt like nighttime.

Severus and I looked at each other face to face, and neither of us said a word.

In the end, I had no choice but to give up and headed towards Severus.

"Weren't you at Hogwarts? Why are you back?" Severus really didn't expect me to come back so suddenly. He had decided to relax today, so he sat down and read a book.

Unexpectedly, flames suddenly appeared in their fireplace, and the little monster who ran away a few days before school started had returned.

I stopped in front of Severus. He was sitting down, and I was standing so that we were at eye level.

"Severus, I missed you." I raised my hand and stroked Severus's face, my eyes filled with deep love.

[Jin: Ding—Stroking the face of the target Severus Snape, completed]

Rewards include 10% memory unlock, 100 experience points, 10 bond points, 1 luck point, and 10 Galleons.

“Ayers, do you know what you’re saying?” Severus grabbed my hand, trying to pull it away but also reluctant to let go.

“Severus Snape, don’t you know how I feel about you?” I said, word by word, as Severus held my hand.

“Ayers Hall, I am your professor.” Severus knew my feelings for him, but he felt that he still liked Lily.

"Severus, don't refuse me." I braced myself on the sofa with my other hand and covered Severus's lips with mine.

Severus's eyes widened suddenly as he stared at the emerald green eyes behind my glasses.

When he realized what was happening, he pushed me away.

I was very surprised and confused, and had no idea what had happened.

I looked into his eyes, trying to find the answer in his gaze.

However, his eyes were filled with contradiction and unease, which confused me even more.

"I..." I wanted to ask, but I couldn't say what I wanted to ask.

I just feel a lot of pain in my heart right now.

He was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I... I think it's Lily I like. I'm sorry, Ayers..."

I was even more confused. I didn't know why he would say that. I knew he loved me, so why did he still think he loved Lily Evans?

“I don’t know what to do,” he said, his voice filled with helplessness.

I didn't know how to answer him, because I didn't know what to do either.

I felt very disappointed and frustrated because I never thought he would push my kiss away.

We were silent for a long time, then I suddenly stood up, walked back to the fireplace, picked up the Floo Powder, and prepared to go back.

I feel so heartbroken I can hardly breathe. All I want to know right now is how we ended up like this.

Did something happen after Severus's memories were sealed away, leading him to mistakenly believe that he was in love with Lily Evans?

Seeing Ayers leave dejectedly, Severus followed after him, worried about him.

I rushed out of Severus's office and ran to the tree where I had first traveled through time to save Severus.

It was snowing heavily, and I was wearing very thin clothes. I braved the snow and rushed to that tree.

He tossed his glasses into his backpack, merged with the blood of the dragon race, transformed into a gigantic golden dragon of the East, its scales shimmering with a mysterious light, and spread its enormous wings.

Then, I climbed onto that big tree that had no leaves left. I was sad, but I hadn't lost my mind. Now, all I wanted to do was lie down quietly.

Severus, who followed me, witnessed the entire process of me transforming into a dragon. It felt so familiar, as if he had seen such a scene before.

[Jin: Ding—Severus Snape, the target of the strategy, recalls some memories.]

Rewards: 50% memory unlock, 500 experience points, 10 bond points, 5 luck points, and 500 gold gallons.
