[Chapter 73: Two Birds with One Stone]
Inside the carriage, Illyrio was going on and on, pouring out his grievances over young Aegon’s situation.
He considered Viserys and his mother to be shameless and greedy.
After all, Aegon was Rhaegar’s son—a trueborn Targaryen. What was Viserys in comparison? Did he even deserve to wear Aegon’s crown?
Under normal ...

“Ha! Dawn Richter! You really surprised me!”
Perhaps because it was the Imperius Curse rather than his true body, the fallen Voldemort could still barely speak.
Leaning against the doorframe, he spotted the toad on the ground and suddenly burst into a maniacal laugh, his expression growing even more twisted.

Illyrio's question was a calculated one—he was testing whether Viserys was aware of Redbeard’s involvement.
Oberyn shrugged.
“Our Targaryen king has Andal blood in his veins as well. Perhaps that’s why he’s opted for a gentler method of conquest toward the remaining Andals.
Sigh… if young Aegon were king instead, per...

“In Dumbledore’s hands,” Dawn shrugged. “If you want it, go get it from him.”
That answer darkened Tom’s expression even further.
But he stayed calm, surprisingly rational. He raised his wand and traced a skull in midair—its mouth open, a serpent slithering out.

Pentos had only one Prince—but forty Governors. Nearly all the wealth and property in Pentos was under their control.
The war between Braavos and Pentos years ago had supposedly started over Pentos's use of slaves.
Of course, that was merely a pretext on Braavos’s part.
The real reason was a land dispute over the Andal Plains....

Snape returned quickly.
However…
When he pushed open the office door again, only a trembling Quirrell followed behind him.
“Old Avery just arrived. He’s in the infirmary now,” Snape explained. “He said his son was hit by the Imperius Curse and needs rest. He’ll bring him personally tomorrow morning.”

In truth, only about seventy percent of the farmers had actually received the essence transfer.
But fortunately, their numbers were large enough.

Dawn quickly pushed that thought out of his mind.

Hogwarts was vast on every floor.

From time to time, he paused to rub his eyes. The magical circuits embedded throughout the castle flickered in complex patterns, and staring at them for too long was rather uncomfortable.
Even so—
It wasn’t all for nothing.
