Chapter 150 — It’s Better to Rely on Yourself Than Others

Back at midnight.

Snape also discovered the diary’s new function and immediately opened it.

He really wanted to know how much Vesey liked him.

When he saw that Vesey’s favorability toward him was 98, he could barely close his mouth.

He kept muttering that Vesey was too foolish to have such a high opinion of someone like him.

But the smile at the corners of his mouth betrayed his true feelings.

Just like Dumbledore, he clicked on his exclusive content without hesitation.

"I am Severus Snape.

"I was very fortunate that I gave all my memories to Vesey before I died.

"I know Harry is likely to die.

"I tried my best. I grieved.

"But I still agreed to Dumbledore’s request and allowed Harry to die.

"I really hope Vesey can bear the grief of Harry’s death.

"Of course, I also hope they can find a way for him to survive.

"Regardless, there was nothing more I could do.

"Before I died, I looked at Vesey’s face.

"But Lily didn’t appear before my eyes.

"In fact, after all these years, I know that I have long since regarded Vesey as my own child—as an independent person.

"I no longer look at her and see Lily.

"I know she is very sad now.

"She must have wanted to save me, but it was useless.

"The snake venom had already entered my body.

"She came too late.

"Perhaps if she had arrived a little earlier..."

"But I think this is enough.

"If I die, I can go and see Lily.

"Lily should still be waiting for me, right?

"I really hope Lily won’t be angry with me for treating Harry Potter badly before.

"I treated Harry badly because of Potter.

"He isn’t a good person!

"It’s just a pity that I never got to see..."

The entry ended there.

Snape could read no further.

His brows drew tighter and tighter.

From his exclusive diary, it was obvious that Harry might eventually die.

The diary had said as much before.

If Vesey hadn’t blocked the Killing Curse for Harry, Harry would definitely have died.

But then what role did Dumbledore play in all of this?

When Snape had decided to become Dumbledore’s spy, he had done so because he wanted to save Lily’s child.

At that time, he only knew that Harry Potter existed.

His agreement with Dumbledore had been simple:

Keep Harry alive.

Yet the diary said that Dumbledore had eventually asked Harry to die.

And Snape had agreed?

Whether he had agreed or not, Snape felt deeply dissatisfied.

He almost instinctively wanted to rush to the Headmaster’s office and confront Dumbledore.

But he calmed himself.

It’s better to rely on yourself than on others.

If he wanted to protect Vesey, he couldn’t put all his faith in Dumbledore.

Just like the future described in the diary...

Perhaps he really would become Dumbledore’s puppet in the end.

With no power of his own, he would remain trapped between Voldemort and Dumbledore.

He couldn’t continue like this!

Snape made up his mind.

He should go to the Prince family and admit his mistakes.

Perhaps the Prince family portraits could truly guide him and give him enough power to fight Voldemort.

Even if it was only for a brief moment.

At the very least, let me kill Voldemort before Vesey does!

Gryffindor Dormitory

Hermione also saw Vesey’s exclusive diary.

Vesey’s favorability toward her was 80.

That meant she could access most of her exclusive content.

"I am Hermione.

"I have lost too much.

"Now it is time for me to find Vesey.

"My Vesey must be very lonely.

"She never got to meet her parents.

"She only has Snape accompanying her.

"How could she possibly be happy?

"I’m glad now that my parents don’t need me.

"They’ve really become a DINK couple. They travel around happily, and sometimes they don’t even recognize me when they see me.

"I know I only have Vesey left.

"I miss her so much.

"I heard that you can see her after you die.

"My vision is getting darker and darker.

"I must have lost too much blood.

"Is it time to go to Vesey?

"I really saw her!

"She looked very angry when she saw me..."

Slytherin Dormitory

Cassandra saw that Vesey’s favorability toward her was only 65.

A bitter expression appeared on her face.

She knew Vesey didn’t like her all that much.

After all, who would have a high opinion of someone who was always stern-faced and snapping at others?

She opened her exclusive content as well.

"I am Cassandra Vorey.

"I am the most hated female heir of the Woley family.

"They all hate me.

"They say I will do whatever it takes to gain power.

"Of course, there are also many people who think highly of me.

"They believe I will lead the Woley family to a new peak.

"How do you know?

"What I want to do isn’t to lead the Woley family.

"It is to destroy this family.

"They’re waiting..."

Gryffindor Dormitory

Ginny also opened her exclusive content.

Vesey’s favorability toward her was currently only 40, so very little had been unlocked.

"I am Ginny Weasley.

"I had six brothers.

"Now there are only five left.

"I used to think I was born into a very open-minded family.

"When I brought Vesey home, no one objected.

"Although Mum wasn’t very happy about it, she still welcomed Vesey warmly.

"But now I feel that I’m not happy at all..."

---

The Burrow

Vesey’s favorability toward Mrs. Weasley was 45.

Molly clicked on her exclusive content.

"I am Molly Weasley.

"I shouldn’t have pushed Ginny.

"I shouldn’t have pushed the children!

"None of the children have come home.

"I am such a failure as a mother.

"I’ve started missing Vesey.

"Maybe it’s because I’m getting older.

"I keep thinking about how considerate Vesey was when she helped Percy talk to us, and how she was injured when Arthur..."

The entry ended there.

Transfiguration Office

Professor McGonagall was surprised to discover that Vesey’s favorability toward her was as high as 85.

She opened her exclusive diary.

"I am Minerva McGonagall.

"I’ve been thinking about Vesey lately.

"Perhaps it’s because as I grow older, I find myself missing the past more and more.

"Vesey is the most gifted child I have ever taught.

"If she were still alive, she would definitely have become the next Headmistress of Hogwarts.

"I wouldn’t even be surprised if she eventually became the leader of the entire magical world.

"But such a wonderful child died so young.

"I don’t even know what mistake she made.

"I asked Albus about the portrait many times, and he always said he had forgotten.

"I don’t think he was lying to me.

"He really had forgotten.

"Vesey buried everything.

"But I’m still so sad.

"If only things could happen just once more..."

Ravenclaw Common Room

The Grey Lady stared at her exclusive diary in confusion.

There was only one sentence written inside.

"I am Helena Ravenclaw."

After all, Vesey’s favorability toward her was only 10.

At this stage, Vesey merely considered her a nice person.

But even more tragic than the Grey Lady was Voldemort.

He was stunned when he saw Vesey’s favorability toward him.

It clearly said:

-100

It was a bitter blow.

Voldemort stared at the number for a long time.

Eventually, he chuckled.

He refused to be discouraged.

Even if he didn’t need to read any of this, he would still win in the end.

Yes.

That was it.
