Chapter 76 - Battle 01.

[Chapter Size: 2000 Words.]

Third Person POV

Diagon Alley, Black Market.

...

...

The auction, as incredible as it already was with this bid, had not yet ended. Despite the high value to sell the last item of 100,000 gold galleons, the auctioneer did not seem so confident that he could beat that with the next item.

Even so, he still had to maintain his composure and immediately flashed a smile. "Well... as our last item and the most awaited of the night, we have a lost Potions diary of the powerful Salazar Slytherin! It is ideal for those seeking to gain more knowledge of potions in the dark arts," he declared, knowing that there were many Death Eaters in this place, and some of them wanted to buy this item to gift to the current dark lord they served.

Snape saw this and did not care, he did not need this book although he would not deny it if he could win it, but he would not spend money. The bids started and even the woman next to him was looking at it without interest and saw Snape also not caring.

It was at the moment that the item would close for 25,000 galleons that the young lady made a bid. "30,000 gold galleons!"

"30 for the young lady!! Who will beat her?" The auctioneer was excited, but no one else wanted to give a higher price than that.

"Going once, going twice, going three times, sold to the young lady!!" He exclaimed, finalizing the last item of the auction.

"You must be wondering why I bought this item." The woman looked at Snape.

"No, I am not wondering." Snape was straightforward, after all, what did he care how she spent her money.

Even with his aggressiveness against her, this woman did not care. "This is my apology for buying the painting, after all, I do not want you to be angry with me as we start to get to know each other..." She commented in a seductive tone.

"I am not interested." Snape said, he would not deny the book, but he would not accept it from this woman for her to blackmail him.

"I just want to know your name." She was direct, to the point of handing over a valuable book just to learn Snape's name, but he knew that what she was asking was not advantageous for him after all, 30,000 galleons was what Snape could make in a few months.

"You really are so difficult... but do not worry, I will find you one way or another. You can take the book... it is yours." She declared.

Snape did not care, as he began to stand up. "And now you will leave?" She asked while keeping her eyes fixed on him.

Snape did not even leave, he simply disappeared like a shadow while no one was looking except for the woman, who immediately looked up while smiling broadly.

He appeared behind the stage while seeing the manager talking with the auctioneer, as they were surprised by Snape's presence there.

"Hm?! If it isn't the mysterious gentleman who was with the young lady... you made admirable purchases and managed to compete with the lady, I have never seen anything like it in these years of auction..." He began trying to please this rich client, not imagining that he was dealing with a Hogwarts student.

"Just give me what I bought." Snape quickly interrupted him, not wanting to stay to chat while the man, already accustomed to dealing with all kinds of nobles, quickly understood.

"I understand, the dragon heart and the house elf. I will need the money." The man said and Snape handed over a separate pouch while separating the amount with magic.

The man took the pouch and used a Revelio, seeing the amount of money while nodding satisfied. "Bring me his items." He instructed and the elf and a box were brought to him.

"Unlock the chains." He requested while the elf appeared looking at him frightened still with chains binding his hands.

They quickly fell to the ground with a magic and the elf seemed hesitant. "Are you the master of Dobby now?" He asked.

"Yes, so your name is Dobby, I want you to accompany me before we make our master and servant pact." Snape said as the house elf nodded.

Before Snape could start to leave, a new house elf appeared next to the manager with a letter. The man took the letter and began to read before looking serious. "Sir... the young lady wants you to take the Salazar book as well." He requested but Snape denied at the next moment.

"Tell her my answer is the same," Snape said as he simply picked up the elf and disappeared the next moment, leaving the manager, the auctioneer, and some assistants stunned.

Snape reappeared in the middle of the black market street while the elf looked at him confused. "Just follow me," he requested as he walked through the place, securing the heart in a safe spot in the system and continued as he entered an alley.

"Do you want to go to Hogwarts, and wait in the kitchen for me, can you?" Snape asked as the Elf seemed to think a bit but nodded, confident that he would find the magical castle where his father lived.

As soon as he disappeared, Snape stopped looking at him and looked toward the entrance of the alley as the space distorted with 5 people appearing with apparition.

"It seems we have cornered him…" said one of the men wearing a mask.

"He must have the book," another spoke.

"You thief... you stole from the young lady... do you have any idea who she is? Whose daughter she is?" another spoke as Snape narrowed his eyes, it seems that woman set him up when he hadn't even taken the book.

"So be it... if you really want this, then I will use magic and I won't be gentle after all we are in the black market and I can use the unforgivable curses," Snape commented as his eyes glowed with the magic of his body beginning to give a dark aspect as he pulled out his wand.

The wizards were a bit surprised by this, but even more so when a huge glow emerged from Snape's wand as it began to shine with the magic of death, something Snape had learned to use Avada Kedavra in the last months.

"This?!" They were stunned seeing the huge light emerging with green rays being accumulated at the tip of the wand.

Snape did not think twice, as he simply pointed his wand and the next moment, an explosion with a ray larger than any of their magic, was launched, hitting two, while they screamed with the skin of bodies evaporating, leaving only the intact skeleton.

The ray did not stop there as it hit a building, making it explode while drawing the attention of the entire black market with the huge light.

"This?!" The other 3 were stunned and scared seeing the bones on the ground, never having heard of something like this.

"Avada Kedavra!!" They screamed launching the death magic, while Snape just pointed his wand at the spell and caught it while he kept it at the tip of the wand leaving everyone stunned, before he simply returned it while launching it at them.

Another ray caught one of the 3 as he turned into a skeleton and the ray advanced hitting a first floor of a building in front of that alley, causing the building to start falling, drawing the attention of all the black market.

As screams emerged and sounds of the air distorting while witches used distortion to see what was happening.

The last two were so scared by this that they began to run away, while Snape would not let them escape, he needed to level up and here was a lawless land.

One of the men appeared on top of one of the houses and the next moment, turned around scared with his eyes glowing as they reflected the strong green light coming for them being destroyed the next moment, as he turned into bones and the house he was on, destroyed, while the bones shattered due to the force of the attack in the same place.

The last one was quite worried as he ran back to the auction asking for help after seeing 4 of his colleagues wanting to please the young lady being killed.

"Help me!! There's a wizard killing us!!" He exclaimed as he approached the crowd that grew at the entrance of the place due to the explosions happening there, while entire buildings were destroyed and collapsed.

Snape made no effort to hide as he reappeared in front of everyone with magic glowing in the unforgivable magic. "Come on you coward, you wanted to kill me before... why hide like a rat?" Snape said and looked at all those present, who were surprised.

"Is he the one who bought the heart and the elf?!" Someone exclaimed.

Malfoy was among the crowd and looked in surprise at the man who had defeated him and competed with the young lady.

Several people seeing the threat of Snape quickly drew their wands, "Stop this madness!" someone shouted.

"He has already killed 4 of us!!" The man shouted, still scared, looking entirely different from what he was just moments ago.

"So be it... come all..." Snape spoke in a firm tone, after all, it was an opportunity for him to grow by gaining many levels, he was interested in reaching level 45 to see that dungeon, he might not have been able to buy the painting, but if necessary, he would infiltrate anywhere to gain access to that dungeon.

As everyone prepared to attack him and Snape began to generate stronger death magic rays than those present, making them cautious, someone appeared at this moment between Snape and the crowd, like a red flame, a strange kind of apparition like Snape had when turning into a shadow.

This person was none other than the young lady, appearing since things were getting out of control, and she could feel Snape's killing intent, which quite surprised her.

"I can't let you attack all these wizards," she said.

"You set me up and send your lapdogs, you think I would stay silent?" Snape commented with a dangerous tone.

"I wanted to test you... I knew you would handle the 5 wizards... but I can't let you fight against this entire crowd."

"Then it doesn't matter, after all, I'm going to kill you," Snape said as his eyes glowed with a dangerous blue light.

"I am not like any other wizard you have faced... mysterious man... and I was serious about the book, but I wanted to see your skills first..." She spoke, but Snape wanted to laugh at this foolish woman.

"Did he talk about killing her? Is he insane?" Someone among the crowd of spectators commented, surprised.

"She is the daughter of that man, and even the dark lord has to treat him with respect..." Another spoke.

More and more apparitions began to appear around the place as Snape and the woman faced each other behind their masks. "You are really surprising, you might even exceed my expectations..." the woman murmured, seeing that things were getting out of control, while she had always had control of everything ever since she learned to use her powers.

"Stop the nonsense and let's end this," Snape spoke, he couldn't help but be excited about killing this woman, after all, he could gain system levels, something he wanted and didn't care about doing at the expense of those trying to kill him.

Snape's wand exploded in a ray of death from its tip while the woman drew a wand with a red glow. The next moment, both pointed at each other as green and red magics exploded against each other with hundreds of spectators watching.
