Chapter 550 It takes no effort at all

The room was dimly lit. Voldemort sat at the long table, his scarlet eyes flickering in the darkness like snake pupils. The Death Eaters opposite him lined up neatly, silently, waiting for his final instructions.

"Go wait for me in the yard." Voldemort's voice was low and cold. "Little Barty, Severus, the two of you stay."

The Death Eaters did not dare to hesitate upon hearing this and quickly bowed and retreated. Soon, only three people were left in the room.

As the heavy door slowly closed, the room fell into deeper silence. Voldemort slowly stood up and walked to Snape.

"Severus." Voldemort looked down at him slightly, his voice soft but with unquestionable authority, "You are my most loyal subordinate. Now, I have an extremely important task for you."

"Master," Snape bowed slightly, his expression calm and his tone steady, "Please give me your orders. I will do my best to complete your orders."

The corners of Voldemort's lips slightly raised, and his pale face cast a strange shadow in the candlelight. He did not answer directly, but made a series of low hisses.

Snape's heart trembled slightly.

Parseltongue!

Could it be... that my mission is related to Nagini!

As he was thinking, a huge python quietly swam out from the shadows, its cold scales rubbing against the floor, making a slight sound. It twisted its huge body, wrapped around Voldemort's feet, and finally coiled up and slowly wrapped around Voldemort's shoulders.

As the war was approaching, Voldemort knew that he could not take Nagini with him to the battlefield. This was not only his pet, but also his way out.

Once the war situation turns unfavorable, Nagini will become the key to his comeback, so he must choose an absolutely reliable person to ensure Nagini's safety.

Looking at all the Death Eaters under his command, Barty Crouch Jr. is undoubtedly the best candidate in terms of ability and loyalty.

This man is meticulous, ruthless, and has great admiration for me. He is simply an excellent executor. If Nagini is handed over to him, there will be nothing to worry about.

only......

Thinking of his arrangement for little Barty, a dark light flashed in Voldemort's eyes.

Pity......

In addition to Little Barty, Bella is undoubtedly also very loyal and is willing to go through fire and water for him, and even sacrifice her life.

However, Bella's mental state is not stable enough, and her paranoia and impulsiveness cannot be ignored. If she is asked to protect Nagini, she may do unpredictable things on a whim or in anger.

This snake concerns one's own future and must be handed over to a calm and reliable person, not a fanatic who easily loses control of his emotions.

As for the rest, in terms of strength and talent, the most outstanding one is undoubtedly Severus Snape.

Voldemort's eyes fell on Snape, who still maintained a respectful bow, with no emotion on his face. Voldemort's mouth slightly raised, revealing a satisfied smile.

In terms of ability alone, Snape is the strongest among all the Death Eaters. His attainments in potions and dark magic are unmatched by others.

As for loyalty...it might have been questionable in the past, but now, Voldemort had made up his mind.

Since Dumbledore's death, Snape's last connection with Hogwarts was severed, and he had no way out.

Neither the Ministry of Magic, the Order of the Phoenix, nor that righteous Sebastian would accept him anymore. Snape could only depend on himself now and there was no possibility of him betraying him.

It seems that he is the best choice to take care of Nagini.

Voldemort smiled faintly and said slowly: "Severus."

Snape bowed his head and said in a steady tone: "Master."

“I will not bring Nagini with me to this battle,” Voldemort gently stroked Nagini’s slippery scales. “Nagini will be in your care tonight. Remember, her safety is of utmost importance!”

Snape's eyelids twitched slightly, but he quickly returned to normal and whispered, "I will follow your instructions. As long as I am here, Nagini will never be harmed."

Voldemort stared at him, his voice slowly lowered: "If everything goes well, then nothing will happen. But if you hear the news of my failure, or even my death... you must take Nagini away immediately."

Before he finished speaking, Little Barty shouted eagerly: "Master, you will definitely win. I believe Sebastian is no match for you."

Voldemort raised his hand to stop Barty from speaking: "Barty, don't worry, these instructions are just to prevent extreme situations from happening."

"No, Master, there won't be such an extreme situation. You will definitely win! I will do everything to help you become the master of the entire wizarding world."

"Little Barty, your loyalty is always impeccable," Voldemort said softly, "but before you become the master of the wizarding world, we need to resolve our current situation first."

"Our situation is not good, or rather, we are already in a precarious situation and are in danger of collapse at any time."

"Tonight's attack is only the first step in making our name known, except... simply destroying the new city will only invite even more violent retaliation from Sebastian."

"There is a high possibility that Sebastian and Grindelwald will form an alliance. Once the two of them join forces, I will not be their opponent."

"To prevent this from happening, I will do my best tonight to kill Sebastian, get rid of the British Ministry of Magic, and completely take the British wizarding world into my hands."

"Only with the British wizarding world as our base can we have the capital to compete with Grindelwald and slowly realize our ambitions."

Voldemort paused, looked at the two people in front of him and said, "I am confident that I can get rid of Sebastian with all my strength, but I also have to prepare for the possibility of failure."

"Severus," a faint light flashed in Voldemort's red eyes, and his tone suddenly became cold and gloomy, "Remember your mission and ensure Nagini's safety!"

"As long as Nagini is here... I can be resurrected again."

As he spoke, he waved his wand, and a star-studded magical protective ball appeared in mid-air, taking Nagini into it.

"Go, Severus, take Nagini back to your own room first. I still have a task to give to little Barty."

"Yes, master!" Snape bowed again, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and returned to his room with the magic ball containing Nagini.

Sebastian's task was to find out the whereabouts of the giant snake Nagini, but he didn't expect to find out without any effort.

Merlin's blessing!

After closing the door, he took out a special alchemical ring from the cabinet, and then put it firmly on his thumb through the cover of his clothes. After turning the ring clockwise three times, he sat on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.

Lily...your revenge will be soon.
