Lucius' figure trembled. He knew that he couldn't escape today, so he had to bite the bullet and speak. "Master... the wizards who took photos are extremely afraid of your power and have fled to America ahead of time. I have to go... a step too late..."

"In other words, they are all alive well?" Voldemort interrupted Lucius impatiently, and said harshly.

"Master, I beg you to give me another month...two weeks...no, in one week, I will definitely be able to bring their bodies to you..." Lucius knelt down on Voldemort's without an image. At his feet, all the pure-blood honors and noble qualities of the past were all left behind, and he pleaded very humblely.

"Lucius, I have given you many opportunities, but it's a pity that you didn't cherish it once." Voldemort looked at him disappointedly, and then suddenly asked. "Is the diary I kept in Malfoy's house still there?"

Lucius Malfoy, who knelt down and begged for mercy, was dumbfounded, with cold sweat on his forehead. He didn't expect Voldemort to suddenly ask about this. That diary was taken by him three years ago...

"You gave it to Ivan Hals, am I right?" Voldemort spoke slowly, a trace of killing intent appeared in the red eyes.

"Master, I just follow your instructions, get it in Hogwarts at the most suitable time, and kill those mudbloods that don’t deserve to be wizards. I also want to give it to Ivan Hals. Kill him with the help of the master's power..." Lucius trembling constantly, said tremblingly.

"But you didn't accomplish any of these things. You also damaged my diary, and even implicated another equally important thing... Guess how I would punish you, Lucius?"

Voldemort's eyes became sharper, and before Lucius Malfoy could reply, he waved his wand angrily.

"~ (heart-cutting bones

An unspeakable pain instantly invaded his whole body, and Lucius only felt that his flesh and blood had been torn apart, and fell to the ground in embarrassment, wailing in pain.

On the side Draco was shocked, he wanted to shout loudly, or jump on to rescue his father.

But the courage that rose in my heart all disappeared the moment I saw Voldemort, Draco seemed to be under a hold spell, with a few tears hanging in the corner of his eyes, staring blankly at his father's heart. Curse torture.

About a minute later, Voldemort put away his wand, and the screams and howls echoing in the front hall stopped.

Lucius got up reluctantly, and in spite of his embarrassment, he pleaded in a low voice. "Master... please, please give me another chance, I have always been loyal to you, Master."

"That's why I specially spared your life, Lucius..." Voldemort tapped the wand in his hand and turned his attention to Draco. "At least, you followed my instructions this time and brought your son here."

Seeing Voldemort turning his gaze to him, Draco stepped back in horror and almost fell to the ground.

Lucius was worried that Draco would offend Voldemort by saying the wrong thing, and hurriedly said. "Master, my son Draco has just turned fifteen this year. He is weak, I am afraid he can't help much..."

"I think he will be more useful than you." Voldemort interrupted Lucius' words, staring at Draco, and asked casually. "I heard that you and Ivan Hals are in the same grade, and have some friendship, right? Draco?"

Draco's face turned pale, and he shook his head frantically. "No, Master, I don’t have any friendship with him. Hals is the person I hate the most. He maintains Potter and Weasley in school and makes trouble for me together. Snape...Professor Snape can do I testify!"

Having said that, Draco hurriedly looked at Snape next to him, as if he had found a straw.

Snape didn't disappoint him either, and nodded immediately. "Yes, Master, many people in Hogwarts know that Draco and Ivan Hals are very troublesome."

"Yes, I can't wait to kill him!" Draco Malfoy yelled in fear.

"Very well, if that's the case, then you go and kill him!" Voldemort said with a sneer.

The expression on Draco Malfoy's face froze for an instant, his mind was a little confused, and he stammered after a while. "But... but I am not his opponent..."

"Of course I don't expect you to confront him head-on, Draco." Voldemort said quietly. "You can think of other ways, such as putting poison in your food, setting up some traps, or something."

With each word Voldemort said, Draco's face became paler and his body trembling unceasingly.

Lucius did not expect Voldemort to have a whim, let his son assassinate Ivan Hals.

With the cunning and powerfulness of the opponent, the possibility of getting hit is very small, which is completely a move to send death.

Realizing this, Lucius couldn’t care if he would offend the Dark Lord. Even if he wanted to persuade Voldemort to give up this idea, he was forced by Voldemort’s intentional or unintentional aura to give him words that came close to his lips. Swallowed back.

At this moment Draco had been driven into desperation. He kept looking around, as if expecting someone to stand up and help himself, but no one responded.

Voldemort walked up to Draco step by step.

Seeing this strange snake face close at hand, Draco nodded in fear.

"Very well, Draco, you are such a brave kid." Voldemort put his hand on Draco's shoulder enthusiastically and said with satisfaction.

"If you can do this~com~, then not only will I not account for your father's faults, but I will also treat you as a loyal right-hand and... successor!"

Voldemort's voice seemed to have a certain magical power. Draco could not help but think that after the mission was successful, he would be commended in public, and a large number of Death Eaters nodded more vigorously at the appearance of his words.

At this moment, a voice rang.

"Master, don't you want me to start a fight between Hals and Dumbledore? It might be a bad thing if Draco acted on Hals at this time."

Voldemort turned around and looked over with a slight dissatisfaction. It was Snape who spoke!

He didn't avoid Voldemort's sight, only a faintly confused and worried expression on his face.

Voldemort stared at Snape for a moment, then laughed suddenly and explained.

"Everything has to be prepared, Severus, if you provoke their plan to fail, then Draco will naturally come in handy..."
