Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Malfoy Manor, Greasy Snape

In Wiltshire, England, near Malfoy Manor, numerous horse-drawn carriages appeared on the road. The peculiarity was the house-elf, as tall as a thigh, managing the carriage.

A black carriage suddenly appeared nearby, and two English draft horses galloped forward.

Standing on the carriage, Kreacher was full of pride and majesty. It had been a long time since he had looked so handsome.

Recalling the past glory of the Black family, Kreacher couldn't help but tremble.

At banquets like this, pure-blood families pay great attention to dignity, and they always arrive in carriages driven by house-elves.

If you don't have a house-elf, then you are not worthy of participating in such a banquet. Which pure-blood family does not have a house-elf?

Kreacher is also proud to serve the Black family. Among the circle of elves, who knows how many elves envy him.

The carriage stopped, and Kreacher jumped out of the carriage and respectfully knelt on the ground.

"Master Cole, we have arrived."

Cole opened the curtain, looked at Lucius who was chatting with a wizard not far away, and prepared to get out of the carriage.

Unexpectedly, Kreacher quickly bent down and looked at him excitedly.

Cole was a bit perplexed about what he wanted to do with this thing. It was inconvenient to get out of the carriage even if he was blocked here.

Just as Cole was about to speak, he saw a wizard on a carriage not far away stepping on a house-elf to get out of the carriage.

Cole could only sigh that these wizards knew how to enslave, but still had this problem.

Although Cole was not interested, when he saw Kreacher's earnest eyes, he understood that the brain circuits of these house-elves could not be understood with normal thinking.

Lifting the wizard's robe, Cole stepped on Kreacher's shoulders and got out of the carriage, then turned back to give Mira a hand.

Unexpectedly, Mira was not surprised to see Kreacher's behavior. It seemed that in her wizard world, enslaving other races was normal.

Suddenly, Cole became interested in the world of wizards. Even with Mira's description, he could imagine the power of the wizard and the existence of the God of Defeat.

It seems that my own power is nothing in that world.

It seems that the construction of the mage tower has to be put on the agenda, and he can only rely on the continuous gold galleons of the Black family and what he can exchange through his own system.

To complete the construction of his own mage tower, Cole can't wait for the magic of the mage tower.

Maybe it can change the world.

While Cole was still pondering, Lucius had already approached.

"Cole, you are here, and Miss Mira, you are so beautiful today."

Mira accepted Lucius's praise without hesitation.

The dress on Mira was custom-made by Cole at the Diagon Alley Clothing Shop. Coupled with Mira's aura, it was both noble and mysterious.

"Lucius, congratulations."

"Cole, I want to have a good drink today. The wine I treasure is brewed by Malfoy Manor itself."

Looking at Lucius's smiling face, Cole could also understand this social butterfly of a pure-blood noble in the wizarding world.

Not every pure-blood wizard family is wealthy. Like the Weasley family, they have so many people, they definitely aren't wealthy.

There are many families that can't even afford their daily expenses. It's already remarkable that Lucius can manage the Malfoy family to where it is today.

Lucius stayed outside waiting for the guests, while Cole and Mira entered the hall under the guidance of the Malfoy family wizard.

At this time, there were many people in the hall, and as soon as I saw it, I saw Narcissa chatting with guests.

Cole could recognize that it was a member of the Shacklebolt family. After all, Shacklebolt, wearing a wizard's robe and a small hat on his head, was also famous in the wizarding world.

Most members of the Shacklebolt family work in the Ministry of Magic. They are known for their rigor and take their work seriously.

At the same time, members of the Shacklebolt family also joined the Order of the Phoenix and made great contributions in the fight against Voldemort.

It seems that Lucius invited people from the Shacklebolt family just to make today's banquet look decent.

Cole turned his head and looked not far away.

The greasy man with long hair is the same Professor Snape who never buys shampoo.

Even today, Snape had a cold face, sitting alone in a corner, paying no attention to anyone.

Mira took Cole's arm, and under Cole's leadership, they walked towards the wizard's Mr. Bat.

Approaching Snape, Cole didn't ask about the smell. It seemed that Snape was very good at personal hygiene but didn't wash his hair.

Cole began to wonder whether he should let Mira develop a new shampoo. Maybe Snape can support a store by himself.

Anyway, Snape wouldn't use Potter's shampoo.

"Snape, long time no see."

"Cole, it's you. I heard you were back before, and I was wondering when I could see you."

Snape's expressionless face became a little more excited, and Cole didn't expect that this top master of Occlumency would have an expression on his face.

It seemed that he and Snape had a good relationship initially, but in Cole's memories, they were always the targets of bullying.

Of course, Snape would fight back, but Cole was in a terrible situation. He was at the bottom of the school bully list and didn't even have the ability to fight back.

"Back, this is Mira, my wife."

Cole introduced, and Snape noticed the charming Mira next to him.

There was a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

Cole just wanted to laugh. It seemed that Snape, who had been single for millennia, still refused to believe it.

"Hello, Miss Mira."

Mira just smiled, and Cole asked Mira to talk to Narcissa, but only opened her door.

Mira was also obedient. She was comfortable with this kind of scene. As a noble lady, she wouldn't show timidity at such a social banquet.

Looking at Mira's back, Cole smiled and said, "What? Are you envious? Who's to blame for you not living up to expectations from the start."

Cole knew Snape's temperament from his memory, so the friendship between them didn't need to worry too much about other things.

There was no need to worry that what Cole said about Lily would irritate Snape, after all, they were all in the same school.

It's been a few months, and if Snape hadn't adjusted, he wouldn't have come out.

Back at Hogwarts, Snape would hide in a tree hole alone when he was in a bad mood.

Of course, that's where he met Lily.

"What's next? What are you going to do?"

"I agreed to become a professor at Hogwarts."

Snape returned to his indifferent demeanor.

"It must be Dumbledore's idea. He really refuses to let you go."

Cole's sigh didn't attract Snape's attention. In his heart, he might still believe Dumbledore.

Cole didn't want to say anything, though his guess was similar, and he understood Dumbledore's plan.

But he didn't want to get involved in Snape's affairs, otherwise, Dumbledore would have warned him.

Even if Snape hadn't gone to Hogwarts, where could he have gone?
