The Death Eaters' Miserable Plight

At the end of the bottomless tunnel lies the Coiling Dragon Dungeon.

Every time Skylar entered this place, his demeanor would change dramatically.

To outsiders, he is a gentle, polite, and elegant noble young master, possessing a handsome appearance and impeccable manners. He always makes people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze, embodying the two completely opposite qualities of nobility and friendliness, successfully creating a unique leadership style.

In the eyes of his followers, only when they are truly close to him can they experience another unique charm about Skylar. When speaking to him, his calm voice and confident smile always unconsciously dissolve all tension and unease in people's hearts, making them involuntarily open their hearts to him and feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy and trust. As a result, they are willing to follow him wholeheartedly, obey him, and regard him as their leader or master.

However, here, all of Skylar's original gentleness, nobility, and kindness vanished, replaced by a man exuding a dangerous aura of Dark Arts.

Although the Coiling Dragon Dungeon, under Skylar's design, was not as gloomy and terrifying as other prisons, it was actually quite bright, with torches on the walls and magically generated milky-white flames making it warm and cozy.

However, the moment Skylar stepped inside, the air in the cell seemed to freeze instantly, as if subjected to a tenfold gravitational spell. The prisoners, who had been hanging their heads in a semi-conscious state, almost simultaneously broke out in a cold sweat, opened their tired, bloodshot eyes, and looked up in terror—

What came into view was Skylar, dressed in a black robe.

His cold face carried an air of supreme authority, a terrifying pressure that, even if not intentionally exerted by Skylar, still made the most timid Peter Pettigrew shriek like a mouse. His trousers—if those tattered scraps of cloth could even be called trousers—dripped a yellowish-brown liquid; he had lost control of his bladder...

The other Death Eaters weren't having an easy time either. The oppressive aura emanating from Skylar almost made it hard for them to breathe; it was a feeling more terrifying than death itself—before they looked up and saw Skylar's face, they thought they were standing in front of a hundred Dementor!

At Little Hangleton's graveyard, when Voldemort resurrected, ten Death Eaters were summoned by the Dark Mark and appeared. Then Avery died from the Killing Curse that Skylar had transferred from Voldemort. Then, another one died while Skylar's puppets were fighting the Dark Soulers...

Therefore, there were only 8 Death Eaters in the dungeon.

Irina Selwyn and Miles Bletchley Family, who were originally stationed here, have changed their names and assumed the aliases "Night Cat" and "Eagle Eye" under Skylar's orders, and are now carrying out secret missions for the Sleeping Dragon Society.

Even if the dungeon was unguarded, Skylar was not worried that they would be able to escape.

Their original wizard robes were now tattered and barely covering their bodies. The robes and their exposed skin were covered with dried black blood, and their skin was covered with round wounds that looked like they had been pierced by sharp teeth. Almost their entire bodies had been injured, making them look horrific and gruesome.

This tragic scene was Sarf's doing, an effect produced by the Parseltongue magic technique "Myriad Serpent Net Formation" passed down in Slytherin.

Seeing the Death Eaters' battered and bruised state, Skylar's pupils showed no emotion. In his heart, however, he thought to himself, "Sarf is completely absorbed in the study of Parseltongue magic. Her 'Myriad Serpent Net Formation' can ambush ten thousand bizarre and wonderful snakes underground—venomous snakes, pythons, and even magical snakes with a certain degree of magical power..."

If eight people are facing ten thousand snakes, even if each snake only bites them once, each person would still be bitten at least a thousand times...

Aside from their severe injuries, the Death Eaters were also separated and seated on stone chairs, their bodies tightly bound to the chairs by a giant, gold-and-blue python conjured using the "Snake Binding Technique." The python's mouth was biting their left wrists, and the venom attached to its fangs seeped into their bodies through their blood vessels, numbing them completely and rendering them utterly immobile.

It has been almost 12 hours since they were captured. Under the combined effects of the venom, blood loss, hunger, pain, and exhaustion, the group has reached their physical and mental limits.

If Skylar had appeared any later, there was a very high probability that a portion of the Death Eaters would have gone insane and suffered personality breakdowns.

Skylar turned and asked, "Do you know their names?"

"Yes, Master," a cruel smile appeared on Sarf's beautiful face, "This is Trelawyn Selwyn, the head of the House of Selwyn, whose power is second only to the House of Malfoy among Pure-blood families... This is Corban Yaxley, the head of the House of Yaxley, whose power is right behind..."

"The Fawley Family's collateral branch expelled from the family— Claude Fawley... the Slughorn branch— Squall Slughorn... Walton Macnair, an executioner in the Department for the Control of Fantastic Beasts at the Ministry of Magic... Andrei Enoff... Bahaza Bole... and... Peter Pettigrew..."

Skylar nodded slightly. Selwyn, Yaxley, Walton Macnair, Peter Pettigrew were all characters mentioned in the original work, and their names were within Skylar's expectations.

In the original book, Harry mentioned that he saw about 30 Death Eaters in Little Hangleton Cemetery. Apart from the 12 whose names appeared in the book, there were at least 18 other minor wizards whose identities were unknown.

In this world, because of Skylar, many former Death Eaters were not of firm mind have turned to Skylar's camp as Skylar reputation has grown. These include Nott, Carrow, Goyle, Crabbe, and others. Of course, there are also people from the House of Rowle and House of Lestrange families, two families that were once enemies of Skylar. Their members are either dead or imprisoned in Azkaban.

(After the incident at Black Sin Square, the head of the family Dolfin Rowle, was arrested by the Auror, tried in Wizengamot, and imprisoned in Azkaban. Meanwhile, his direct descendants were eliminated by the House of Malfoy, Greengrass Family, and Nott Family, who were arranged by Skylar, so that they could divide up the House of Rowle's wealth and inheritance.)

Skylar hated the unknown. For him, the most suitable strategy was to eliminate all potential threats in their infancy rather than slowly wrestling with unknown enemies. Therefore, he had this plan in mind from the beginning: to take advantage of the rare Voldemort resurrection event to wipe out all the Death Eaters were still loyal to Voldemort.

Now, everything is going exactly as Skylar planned—the identities of the few remaining unknown Death Eaters have also come to light.
