While the anti-Voldemort alliance was preparing for the upcoming Battle of Hogwarts, Voldemort, who had just been beaten in Nurngard Prison, was contracting his strength and planning to retract his previously extended tentacles back to Britain.
Now that he had obtained the Death Stick, continuing to stay in the European continent would only bring him endless trouble.
As for the previous grudges with the Ministries of Magic of various European countries, Voldemort believed that no country would be foolish enough to co to his territory to cause trouble.
However, this order disappointed the dark wizards who were ready to cause trouble. They thought that Voldemort would stir up a big storm in European countries, but they did not expect that it would end in a hasty manner like a play.
Most dark wizards are extrely dissatisfied with this. How could they, who are used to a life of "eating big mouthfuls of at", be willing to live the miserable life of "eating coarse grains and vegetables" as before?
Unfortunately, after Voldemort returned to England, without the protection of the Dark Lord, those guys who had done bad things under the na of "Voldemort" were all put on the blacklist of the Ministry of Magic of various countries. If they didn't run away quickly, they would be wiped out by the angry Aurors sooner or later. The group of dark wizards who made the most trouble among them were directly abandoned by Voldemort to ease the anger of European countries, so that those guys would not have nowhere to vent and really run to England to fight with them.
Unfortunately, peace has ceased to exist since Voldemort went to Europe to cause trouble. So people who are driven by hatred will not allow their own Ministry of Magic to compromise with the Dark Lord.
This directly led to Yaxley, as Voldemort's right-hand man, becoming extrely busy. Not only did he need to take ti to listen to and appease the "complaints" of the dark wizards, he also needed to negotiate with European countries in the na of the Ministry of Magic in order to resolve the disputes "peacefully".
In fact, it is just to give those guys a way out, so that they can have political achievents to calm the anger of the residents under their rule and avoid too much trouble between the two sides.
No one wants to be killed while sleeping at night.
A verbal agreent was born.
As for those unfortunate guys who were sacrificed, they did not cause much waves among the dark wizards. Most of the dark wizards who were willing to join Voldemort were selfish guys.
This can also be seen from the eting convened by Voldemort this ti. The group of foreign Death Eaters almost agreed with sacrificing a few insignificant dark wizards to resolve the crisis brought to European countries. They were even willing to take the initiative to promote it, and did not care about the life and death of the dark wizards under their command.
The reason is actually very simple. When they beco a Death Eater, their own interests will be tied to Voldemort.
As for the dark wizards under their command, they are just cannon fodder for them to realize their ambitions.
After the eting on "How to completely eliminate the threats from European countries", Snape returned to Hogwarts with a particularly heavy heart.
Because in the previous eting, he actually felt hostility from the Dark Lord.
The Dark Lord wants to kill himself?
A ridiculous idea suddenly popped up in Snape's mind.
Why?
This is very abnormal.
After all, Snape was not only the hero who killed Dumbledore, but also the Dark Lord's right-hand man, helping him control the students of Hogwarts and having a considerable influence among the Death Eaters. ….
Why did Voldemort want to cut off his own hand?
This is unreasonable.
But Snape didn't think it was an illusion.
Because the murderous intent was too strong.
Could it be that Voldemort discovered that he was an undercover agent?
impossible.
If the Dark Lord really discovered this secret, he would have killed him directly and would not have left him any chance.
Why exactly?
When Snape connected the dots, he imdiately suspected the Death Stick was involved.
Voldemort's decision to shrink his power must have been related to his trip to Nurngard to find Grindelwald that day, and the Dark Lord went to see Grindelwald just for the Death Stick.
Given the Dark Lord's style of doing things, asking everyone to evacuate from the European continent at this ti ans that the Death Stick has been obtained. The question is why would the Dark Lord want to kill himself after obtaining the Death Stick?
If anyone knew the reason, Snape looked at the portrait of Dumbledore pretending to sleep on the wall. Only he and Albert could know the secret.
Moreover, it seems that the pit in Nurngard was dug by them for the Dark Lord.
When faced with Snape's questions, Dumbledore's portrait chose to pretend to be asleep, as if he had no intention of answering his questions.
"It seems that I am also a disposable tool in your hands, just like Harry Potter."
Looking at Dumbledore's portrait, Snape said self-deprecatingly, "I was actually feeling sorry for Harry Potter before, thinking that he was a pig you raised to be slaughtered. How ridiculous."
After hearing what Snape said, Dumbledore's portrait finally opened his eyes.
"I'm already dead, Severus. Don't be too hard on the dead."
"What's with that death stick, don't tell you don't know why."
Snape was not afraid of death, but he hated being treated as a fool. He didn't want to be killed by Voldemort one day and die in an unclear manner.
Yes, Snape never thought that the Dark Lord would let him go.
He didn't kill himself directly now, probably because the situation was unstable. After they resolved the threat from the European continent, Snape suspected that he would die suddenly for no apparent reason.
His intuition told him that his death was most likely a conspiracy by Dumbledore against the Dark Lord.
To this day, Snape still believes that the Death Stick that Voldemort was looking for was the one in Dumbledore's grave, which is why Voldemort was certain that he had obtained the Death Stick after eting Grindelwald.
The reason is very simple.
Grindelwald once had the Death Stick, but after he was defeated by Dumbledore, the wand naturally fell into the hands of the old man. This is probably the secret of why Dumbledore, who has lived for a century, is still extrely powerful.
The wand was taken to the grave by Dumbledore after his death and eventually fell into the hands of Voldemort.
The question is, if the Death Stick was so powerful, how could Albert Anderson allow it to fall into Voldemort's hands?
Wouldn't it be better for him to take the Death Stick and kill Voldemort himself? This is why Snape was convinced that the wand must be a trap dug for the Dark Lord by these two insidious and cunning guys, and there is no doubt that Voldemort has fallen into it.
As for why he was targeted by Voldemort, Snape still hasn't figured it out, but he believes Dumbledore will tell him.
"Because you killed ," Dumbledore said softly. "The wand in Voldemort's hands was only an ordinary wand. Voldemort, who took it from my grave, was not the true owner of the Elder Wand."
"Voldemort thinks that as long as he kills , he can gain control of the wand?" Snape understood. "But I don't believe you will let him have that kind of power, unless the wand is fake, or I am not the real owner of the wand at all. After Voldemort kills , he still cannot completely control the wand."
"So that's it... Albert Anderson." Snape murmured softly, "He is the true owner of the Elder Wand."
"When Albert duels with Voldemort..."
The expression on Snape's face was particularly interesting, and it was not difficult for him to guess what the result would be.
"Don't worry, I will keep the secret. When I agreed to go back, I already had a premonition that this day would co." Snape glanced at Dumbledore's portrait, turned around and left the headmaster's office.
