Bait

After staying in Daisy's secret hideout for three days, Sean had finally gotten a rough grasp of the situation on this Timeline.

Of course, the greatest secrets were still hidden within Dumbledore and Sean himself.

The problem was, Dumbledore was unbeatable... and Sean had no idea what he had done on this Timeline.

Barty Jr.'s plan sounded tempting, but Sean knew that with Dumbledore's capabilities, for someone like Barty Jr., who had always been right under his nose, to accomplish such a grand scheme would be as difficult as climbing to the heavens.

However, Sean, currently playing Voldemort, did not discourage Barty Jr.'s enthusiasm.

He was here for information. The more deeply buried information he could access, the better.

"Master, I must return and report to him—please rest assured, my Occlumency will open only to you." Barty Jr. knelt on one knee and expressed his loyalty to Sean.

Sean lifted an eyelid and chuckled. "Go, Barty. I trust you can handle it—hold out your arm."

Barty Jr. looked somewhat confused. He already had the Death Eaters' mark... Still, he did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately extended his arm.

He watched as his master placed his wand against his mark, followed by a burning sensation.

"I permit you to contact me when necessary." Sean withdrew his wand with a cold smile.

Barty Jr. immediately understood. This was a brand-new Dark Mark!

His master actually valued him this highly!

He knelt excitedly on one knee, trembling all over. "Master! Your most loyal servant will never disappoint you."

"Very good—do you know what to do once you return?"

"Of course. Please rest assured, no one from the Ministry of Magic or Hogwarts will disturb you."

"Very good."

After Barty Jr. Apparated away, Sean returned to Daisy's secret base.
