Bow and Submit

Having finally completed all the arrangements, Skylar waved for Sarf to come closer, then whispered instructions in her ear to lead Yaxley, Fawley, Slughorn, and Macnair out of the Coiling Dragon Dungeon.

The first three will first return to their respective families to begin planning and arranging for the tasks Skylar has entrusted to them.

Macnair and Sarf will then secretly meet with Unctuous Osbert II Osbert, the head of the Beast Division of the Department for the Control of Fantastic Beasts, to discuss a detailed plan for the upcoming "Nogtail Riot" and confirm the various details that require cooperation in the plan.

First, Sarf released the "Cursed Demon," Nogtail creature modified by Skylar (see Chapter 144 of Volume 4 for details). This creature, modified by Skylar's bloodline, possesses extremely powerful cursed energy, capable of bringing terrifying calamities to living beings within a hundred miles. The Ministry of Magic could not possibly ignore it.

When the time comes, Osbert will personally appoint Amos Diggory, the captain of the Beast Extermination Execution Squad, to lead the team to handle the matter. However, given that this is a completely new species, the Ministry of Magic will not know the true danger of this alien creature and will most likely treat it as just another kind of Nogtail.

If Macnair cooperates well and something unexpected happens to Diggory, and Macnair successfully seizes the opportunity to eliminate the Cursed Demon according to the tips provided by Skylar, thus making a great contribution, Osbert can rightfully promote Macnair and let him replace Diggory.

After the five left, the already quiet Coiling Dragon Dungeon became even more deserted. Skylar sat on the True Dragon Throne as if he were a king looking down on the world, Peter Pettigrew stood respectfully beside Skylar, just like the personal eunuch that every king must have by his side.

In the center of the cell, only Trelawyn Selwyn remained, kneeling alone on the ground.

Skylar gently stroked his chin and whispered, "Mr. Selwyn, to be honest, I admire your backbone. You're the first person I've seen who could refuse to submit after all these methods I've used."

"However, admiration is one thing," Skylar's pupils gradually turned cold, "enemies who refuse to submit to me have only one fate—"

"Boy, I admit you're cunning. You even managed to get someone like Yaxley completely under your thumb," Selwyn glared at Skylar with hatred, gritting his teeth as he said, "But no matter how you torture or fool me, I will never yield. I, Trelawyn Selwyn, swear here and now—if there is an afterlife, I will avenge this!" With that, he slammed his face into the ground, the impact so great that it broke all four of his front teeth, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood.

In the magical world, oaths can be grand or trivial, especially when someone makes a blood oath filled with resentment, which is very likely to come with some kind of mysterious curse.

Skylar sneered and said, "Trying to teach a fish to swim, trying to play with curses with me? Who do you think you are?"

In terms of curse magic alone, let alone Selwyn, even his master Voldemort, was not considered by Skylar to be stronger than him.

Having said that, Skylar gently pointed his wand at the bloodstains on the ground. Without chanting any spell, the bloodstains immediately began to boil, sizzling, and finally turned into a red mist, which was all absorbed into the tip of Skylar's Nether Night Wand.

A surge of violent power flowed into his palm through the wand. He had barely felt the warmth in his hand when the power was almost instantly absorbed by the "Pure Blood" above his heart.

"Tsk tsk," Skylar sighed with satisfaction, "As expected of the blood of the Sacred Twenty-Eight Clan Head, the bloodline is exceptionally pure, and the accompanying resentment is a great tonic. I thank you in advance for your generous gift!"

"I won't kill you—" Skylar said with a mysterious expression, "To tell you the truth, your daughter Irina is still alive—"

"What? Where is she? What have you done to her?" Selwyn asked loudly, his eyes bulging, as if he were going mad.

"Don't worry, she's mine now, and I've always treated my loyal and obedient subordinates well, so you can go on your journey in peace," Skylar said calmly, as if he were recounting a trivial matter.

Knowing that his daughter was still alive and well, perhaps relieved of a worry in his heart, Selwyn's eyes suddenly regained their calm, and he said softly, "So you finally want to kill me? Fine, do it!" After saying that, he gently closed his eyes, his face calm, as if he was prepared to die peacefully.

Skylar shook his head and said, "I won't kill you. The House of Selwyn is not comparable to the likes of Avery and Rowle... I just told you to leave in peace so you could say goodbye to the past. From now on, you are a completely new person—"

With a gentle flick of Skylar's wand, Selwyn was caught off guard and suddenly struck, his eyes forced open by a force, revealing a pair of serpentine pupils gleaming with a fierce crimson light—

Slytherin's Secret Magic Technique - Absolute Dominion!

Trelawyn Selwyn's memories were cut into static scenes and transmitted into Skylar's mind.

From Selwyn's warm childhood to his entry into Hogwarts and joining Slytherin at age 11, to his friendships with Yaxley and Rowle, to becoming Prefect in his fifth year and falling in love with a fellow Prefect, to inheriting the Patriarchal position after graduation, marrying his girlfriend, and then joining the Death Eaters...

The most important memories were also fully recorded, including the process of learning the House of Selwyn's secret magic, the memories of opening the family's Chamber of Secrets and Gringotts vault, the cultivation of power and spies within the Ministry of Magic after joining the Death Eaters, the management of the family business and various business intrigues, and the House of Selwyn's deepest hidden core secrets...

"Trelawyn Selwyn!" Skylar roared, "My most loyal subordinate, don't you remember? You swore to serve me faithfully, to die for me, to go through fire and water for me, to give your life for our highest ideals, for our undying beliefs!"

Selwyn trembled all over, his body seemingly struggling as he absorbed more memories.

"It's me! I am Malfoy, your most admired and respected master. Now I have returned to fulfill my promise—to lead you into the future, to write a new chapter of glory, and to welcome the new world we envision!" Skylar felt his pupils begin to burn, and the power that had been brewing within them was about to overflow.

"Bowing down in submission!" Skylar's eyes could no longer suppress their burning pupil power, transforming into infrared-like heat rays that pierced straight into Selwyn's eyes.
