The first to speak after Snape finished was not Voldemort, but "Lily Evans" beside him.
She walked over to Snape, crouched beside him, and said, "Severus, why would you think that? We finally managed to meet again—how could you make such a promise so lightly?"
Hearing "Lily Evans" say that, Snape's body jolted. Still kneeling prostrate, he said in a frightened tone, "Master, please forgive Lily's slip of the tongue!"
Voldemort narrowed his eyes slightly, resting his chin on a clenched fist. "Severus, she is right. I do not wish to lose a loyal servant either."
Snape immediately lowered his head even further. "Master, thank you for your mercy!"
Voldemort said, "Severus, the task I am giving you is actually very simple..."
Snape hurriedly said, "Master, whether the task is difficult or not, I will certainly do everything in my power to complete it! I will never disappoint your expectations!"
"Relax, Severus!" Voldemort gave a slight nod, evidently pleased by Snape's eagerness.
"I believe you need only say a few words and take a few steps to complete this task with ease."
Upon hearing Voldemort say this, Snape could not help raising his head, only to quickly resume his original posture.
Voldemort continued, "Severus, I can sense your eagerness. Since that is the case..."
"I want you to lure Wizet to the Time Chamber in the Department of Mysteries on the day the O.W.L. examinations are held at the Ministry of Magic."
The Headmaster's Office was far quieter than before. Only that faint, almost imperceptible music still echoed through the room.
After a while, Snape finally raised his head.
"Master, that is all?" He looked at Voldemort. "I only need to lure him to the Time Chamber in the Department of Mysteries on the day of the O.W.L. examinations?"
