Once Snape had finished speaking, everyone in the meeting room turned their attention to Peter Pettigrew all at once. They saw cold sweat running down Peter Pettigrew's entire body and his fat body shaking like crazy.
Yes, he had mentioned him.
But no one had paid any attention at the time!
Who would pay any attention to Peter Pettigrew?
It wasn't because he was rich, powerful, or intelligent that he was sitting at the table, but because he could cast the Patronus Charm.
Among a group of Dark Wizards, he is a special talent.
Other than that, who would care about him?
He betrayed his best friend.
After Voldemort disappeared, he faked his own death and escaped. Then, disguised as a rat, he spent twelve years with the Weasley family.
That's it...
Even among Death Eaters, no one respects him!
Naturally, no one would take his words seriously.
You, Peter Pettigrew, consider yourself a powerful wizard?
Ridiculous!
But now no one can laugh anymore!
It turns out that Peter Pettigrew was not lying at all.
Andy Collins is indeed very powerful!
"Wormtail!"
Voldemort looked at him and spoke in a creepy whisper, "You have been by Potter's side the whole time. Collins is Potter's friend, so you should know him very well, shouldn't you?"
Ah, this...
Peter Pettigrew shivered uncontrollably and was too shaken to speak.
He wasn't only afraid of Voldemort.
He was also afraid of Andy.
If Voldemort had asked him this question before yesterday, he would have told him everything he knew about Andy.
But now...
Andy could even face Voldemort alone!
If that kid finds out that I ratted on him, he'll kill me, won't he?
Just look at last night's battle!
Andy mercilessly killed six Death Eaters without batting an eyelid.
That kid... he's completely different from Harry and Ron.
"Hm?"
Voldemort looked at Peter Pettigrew with cold eyes and asked playfully, "Wormtail, don't you want to talk? Are you afraid that Collins will take revenge on you?"
"No... of course not!"
Shrinking down in his seat, Peter Pettigrew looked at Voldemort with trembling lips and said, "Of course, Collins is no match for Your Grace-"
Seeing Voldemort's expression gradually grow impatient, Peter Pettigrew hurriedly added, "Andy Collins... I have never seen a young wizard as talented as him."
"Even James and Sirius... no, they are no comparison at all."
"No matter what kind of spell it is, he can learn it and master it in no time. In his first year, he already self-studied second and third-year curriculum and studied a lot of spells in the library."
"And he also improved the Patronus Charm."
"That was a very special Patronus; some people claimed it was a magical life form that could use magic independently."
When it came to the question of 'dying now' or 'dying later', Peter Pettigrew chose the latter.
Besides, even if Voldemort was defeated in the end, as long as he escaped quickly, Andy might not be able to kill him.
But if he didn't say anything, Voldemort would definitely kill him immediately!
However, as he spoke, Peter Pettigrew gradually found himself at a loss for words.
He really didn't know much about Andy.
On the surface, Andy seemed to be a friend of Harry and Ron.
But in reality, Andy simply didn't bother to pay any attention to the two of them.
They usually simply greeted each other, and if Andy was busy, they didn't even have the chance to say hello.
"My lord, master... that's all I know," Peter Pettigrew stammered.
Voldemort didn't question him.
Because he knew that Peter Pettigrew only knew so much thanks to the Legilimency spell.
What a total waste!
Voldemort thought as he turned to Snape.
Snape said calmly in response, "As far as I know, Collins found the Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets and obtained some research materials there."
"Last year, he was spending all his time looking into magic transfiguration. If nothing unexpected happens, he should have succeeded by now."
"This semester, after the news of your resurrection spread, Hogwarts held a Duelling Club to teach young wizards how to protect themselves."
"I fought Collins..."
"Perhaps because I am a professor, he deliberately held back... But I am indeed no match for him."
This is all public knowledge.
Voldemort has made some guesses, even about the magic transfiguration.
"Anything else?" Voldemort asked indifferently.
"As for his character..."
Snape thought for a moment and continued, "He doesn't really consider Potter to be his friend. Collins is a very proud person, and although he may not show it on the outside, in his heart, Potter is not worthy enough to be his friend."
"The reason he went to the Ministry of Magic with Potter this time was because of Dumbledore's request."
Peter Pettigrew nodded repeatedly as he listened.
Yes, Andy and Harry were not friends at all, so I don't know anything about him.
Voldemort thought this was normal.
From his two encounters with Andy, Andy doesn't seem to be the type of person who follows the rules and is completely different from Harry.
He actually wanted to hear a little bit more.
For example... what did Dumbledore think of Andy!
When he was at Hogwarts, even though he had gained everyone's approval, Dumbledore was still wary of him.
Voldemort always harboured a grudge about this!
He actually wanted Dumbledore's approval more than anything else!
Because to him, Dumbledore was special.
He was the one who had led him into the world of magic and was by far the most powerful wizard in the world.
Sometimes, Voldemort wondered if Dumbledore had approved of him; would he have spent the rest of his life in disguise?
Thinking about this, Voldemort casually asked, "What did Dumbledore think of him?"
He certainly is a bad boy!
During the battle in Azkaban, Andy entered that mysterious room and perhaps obtained something there.
Voldemort thought that someone as hypocritical as Dumbledore would definitely be on guard against such a young wizard, right?
He was looking forward to Snape's next response.
"Dumbledore appreciates him and values him highly."
Snape said slowly. "You must know, my lord, if a fourteen-year-old wizard kills someone, even if there is a good reason, it will cause a great wave of controversy."
"After last night's battle, someone from the Ministry questioned Collin's character, fearing that he might... might become like you..."
Seeing that Voldemort was not offended, Snape continued, "But Dumbledore vouched for him... Dumbledore values his talent and has personally offered him guidance on many occasions."
Voldemort: "???"
Voldemort's eyes grew red with rage.
He was furious!
Dumbledore, how can you be so partial!
