A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor - Chapter 672
“Gee, is that true? Did Dumbledore really say that – take Voldemort’s Soul Fragment out of you tonight?”
The next morning, when Harry told his companions what had happened last night, Hermione said with a start. Ron next to him was speechless in shock, his eyes fixed on Harry’s face.
Harry nodded silently, and they walked around the Black Lake on the soft lawn. It was sunny outside the castle, and Hagrid could be seen working in the vegetable garden in the distance.
“Then did he say what to do? What are you going to do to prepare?” Ron asked impatiently.
“He only told me to do one brave thing, and the rest will be told after dinner tonight,” said Harry.
“But why?” Ron asked in confusion.
“Could it have something to do with the O.WLs exam?” Hermione speculated. “The last exam ends today, so that Headmaster Dumbledore can completely free his hands.”
Harry couldn’t think of a reason to refute or agree. In fact, he had been looking forward to this day, and the idea of spending the last week of the school year with Ginny on a fine June day was simply fascinated by him.
They walked around the black lake, stopping every now and then to watch the giant squid in the lake spew water, and the sun reflected an arched rainbow, which disappeared again in an instant.
Sometimes they would discuss with great interest the methods Dumbledore might use. Ron guessed that Harry would have a thrilling duel with Voldemort in the presence of Dumbledore and Professor Hepp, but Hermione didn’t think so. The two professors would put Harry at risk, so Ron quickly revised his thinking, changing to Dumbledore and Professor Hepp first beating Voldemort half-dead before letting Harry play.
“Let’s just do it with bare hands. The two compete with each other for strength. Voldemort seems to lack training.” Hermione said with a stern face.
Harry laughed.
Especially when Ron said, “It’s not impossible,” he laughed even more. after,
The three spent the afternoon at Hagrid’s place, drinking tea and giving advice on the canvas pants pattern Hagrid had prepared for Grapp.
It wasn’t until it was almost time that Harry, Ron and Hermione returned to the castle.
They timed it very well. When they came to the hall, many students had already completed the practical exam of magic spells.
The three kings were chatting in twos and threes, and these people cheered loudly, celebrating that the hellish year was finally over. After waiting for a few more minutes, Ginny appeared at a side door of the auditorium.
In the short time the door was open, Harry could clearly hear Professor Marchban’s loud voice announcing the end of the exam.
“I’ve always felt that this surname is a disadvantage,” said Ron Dusang. “It’s not going to take advantage of any alphabetical order.”
Ginny, who came over, rolled her eyes at Ron and took Harry’s arm affectionately. Harry looked away uneasily to see Colin Creevey leaning against the alcove with the House Cup hourglass in it, as if giving an interview to Mafalda.
At this moment, Snape’s large black hem “brushed” past them,
Harry just glanced at him curiously, and was caught by Ginny’s words, “I’m going to be a bridesmaid!” Harry was in a trance, and Snape’s shadow was thrown out of the sky by him, and he couldn’t help but in his mind Fancy Ginny wearing a bridesmaid dress, don’t know what’s the difference between it and a bride’s dress?
But in the next few minutes, professors appeared one by one, and even Hermione, who was enthusiastically discussing the wedding dress with Ginny, and Ron, who looked impatient, noticed the abnormality: the professors seemed to pass by too often.
So when Hagrid’s broad figure came in from outside, Harry stopped him.
“Hagrid, why are you here?”
“Meeting,” said Hagrid gruffly, the boat-like boots still sticking with wet dirt, as if he was busy in the vegetable field after they left. He walked into the auditorium quietly, several people looked at each other,
Ginny volunteered to disappear for a while, then came back and said, “Hagrid went to the staff lounge. I took a look and there were a lot of people in there, and it seemed that all the professors were invited.”
When Felix sat down beside Snape, he swept around, all the professors in the school were present, and there were two other faces, sitting in the corner with expressionless faces, not saying a word.
The room gradually quieted down, and everyone’s eyes were on Dumbledore in the main seat. Dumbledore looked around with a smile on his face and spoke.
“Before the meeting, allow me to introduce two witnesses, Vader and Chester, who are representatives of the school board.”
The two nodded.
The professors present exchanged surprised glances, as if something big was about to happen.
“The next thing I want to say has been approved by all the members of the board of directors: everyone, I will resign as headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.” Dumbledore said solemnly, and there was an uproar in the room, as if he didn’t see it , continued: “At the same time, I am very grateful to the board for recognizing my recommendation, and Minerva McGonagall will take my place as the new principal.”
Professor McGonagall screamed, “No, Dumbledore—”
Dumbledore stopped her with a look.
“Let me finish, Minerva. The new appointment also includes one—Felix Hepp, who will serve as Vice-Chancellor, in addition to his continuing tenure as Professor of Ancient Rune.”
After Dumbledore finished speaking, the tips of ten slender fingers touched together, and then looked at the others politely,
Seems to be waiting for questions. The room was quiet for a while, everyone was trying to digest this amazing news, and no one was the first to break the peace.
Felix didn’t respond much to the position that suddenly fell to him, and even without the vice-principal role, he was capable of promoting some reforms at the school. He frowned slightly, staring at Dumbledore, sinking a little.
He had guessed before, but he was not sure. Especially when he recently learned that Dumbledore used the power of the resurrection stone to summon the soul projections of his two relatives from the hearts of the living, even less thought that Dumbledore had the possibility of giving up his life.
If Dumbledore made up his mind to die, what was the point of doing so?
But now that Dumbledore suddenly made this decision, it can’t be to enjoy retirement, right? He moved in his heart and looked at the opposite Grindelwald. Maybe he knew something? At this time, Grindelwald frowned and looked at Dumbledore intently. Dumbledore’s eyes did not avoid him deliberately, but he did not pay too much attention.
He felt bad, and the cold feeling penetrated into his internal organs little by little.
“Dumbledore, you should discuss it with me in advance!” At this time, Professor McGonagall said angrily: “I can’t accept you doing this, it’s ridiculous, I believe other professors are not mentally prepared, even if you have The plan to retire should also leave a buffer time, instead of suddenly raising it to scare everyone.”
“Minerva, there are still two hours before the start of the dinner. We have enough time to answer questions, but my decision will not be changed.”
“Of course there are doubts!” said Professor McGonagall vehemently. “Let’s start with when you have this irresponsible thought, and what do you do after you leave school? You spend most of your life in Spent here.”
“It’s a big subject, Minerva, and I don’t want to go into detail, it’s too verbose, and two hours isn’t enough. Simply put, I’ve planned a trip.” Dumbledore announced happily, even From Felix’s point of view, there was a hint of mischief in his tone. “Of course, you can also think that I have been planning for a long time.”
“Brigade, travel?”
Professor McGonagall seemed confused, but Grindelwald looked up sharply, travel? Dumbledore had mentioned this to him privately, and two days ago, he was talking about his graduation trip that was halfway through, and there was a trace of regret in his words.
He talks freely about his planned route.
Starting from the UK, it covers almost all the famous wizard towns and magical attractions around the world via France, Greece, Egypt and Brazil. Of course, the most important thing is people. He is very interested in the magical ecology of other countries, and he will not refuse to stop briefly in some beautiful places…
Grindelwald stirred a longing in his heart.
For the next time, he was absent-minded and his thoughts were flying. When the meeting was over, all the professors walked out of the staff lounge, and the students in the auditorium were already sitting at the dining table. Then the dinner began, the dinner ended, and Dumbledore stood up and spoke, announcing the horrific news.
The students below were stunned, they finally knew why all the professors seemed to have no appetite today
– One of them naturally includes Grindelwald, but his ideas are completely different from other professors.
When Dumbledore opened his mouth and said that he would give up the position of headmaster, he knew that the plan he had been holding back for a year had gone bankrupt, and his news at Fort Nurmengard was very blocked, but this was exactly what he wanted, and he took the initiative to cut it off. Contact with the outside world. At the beginning, there were still unwilling saints who passed on news through various means, but after finding that there was no response, they gradually disappeared. His world became simple and quiet, and he relied on past memories to pass the time all day. .
Many years passed in a flash. One time he accidentally learned the rumor of the Elder Wand from the house-elf Bundy.
He couldn’t hold back his impulse and asked Bundy to send the letter, because he knew that the Elder Wand had fallen into Dumbledore’s hands half a century ago, and his character would never change hands.
He smelled conspiracy.
Sure enough, the junior who called himself Voldemort began to stir up the storm. Grindelwald watched the battle outside the village of Hogsmeade from the perspective of a house elf, but his doubts were not verified. Dumbledore was old and did not show the power of the Elder Wand at all. However, the Elder Wand was still in his hand.
After that, he hooked up with Felix Hepp.
In the constant bickering and exchanges, he is keenly aware that another magnificent era is coming. The last big era was a century ago. At that time, the speed of Muggle development was getting faster and faster, which not only made people of insight in the wizarding world feel threatened, but even ordinary wizarding people could find that their scope of activities became more and more. Narrower and narrower, the secrecy laws are more stringent.
Dissatisfaction is spreading around the world.
He seized that opportunity, and thus made Grindelwald’s reputation as the most dangerous dark wizard of all time.
Now almost a century has passed, and history has reincarnated again, but this time it was not the wizards who initiated the war, but they had no way to retreat.
Secrecy laws are in jeopardy, and this crisis is not something that can be solved by putting a dark wizard in jail.
Shortly thereafter, he ‘saw’ some images, not one. To be precise, three different scenes: an anti-wizard parade; a grand firework; and – a scene where you must gather your own saints!
He concealed the last two pictures and used the most intuitive first one as a condition for negotiation. In the end he succeeded, changing his face, going incognito, and becoming an ordinary magic teacher.
At first he had no interest in educating students.
But this idea gradually changed, and sometimes he even thought that it would be good to continue these days until the picture of the prophecy appeared. He even found an explanation for two other images he saw: the celebration after the victory, and when the wizarding world was exposed, he summoned saints to replace the decadent and incompetent International Confederation of Wizards.
It is precisely because he has figured out the meaning of these three pictures that he, Dumbledore, and Hepp have the ternary theory of confrontation. Each of the three plays an important role:
Dumbledore gained enormous prestige by defeating him and being recognized by the unicorn, an influence unmatched to this day;
Felix Heppe’s influence is slightly less, but it depends on who he is compared with. In fact, his personal strength and prestige are far beyond geographical restrictions. In just a few years, he has used the promotion of ancient runes, research and development. Novel magic items spread their tentacles all over the magical world, and even Grindelwald was amazed after studying his resume.
As for Grindelwald himself, as he said, unite all the forces in the wizarding world to ensure that there will be no internal chaos.
When necessary, the saints in his hands will wipe out all threats. The list naturally included stubborn Muggle regimes, and in his view, even if wizards and Muggles finally made it to peace, it would have to be after war.
In the short decades when he was most active, there were two world wars, and he was all too aware of the evil in human nature.
Wizards must show their power. Optimistically, it is enough to burn one or two countries to rubble. At least a full-scale war was avoided, wasn’t it? Even if both sides suffer heavy losses, with the wizard’s ability to hide, as long as someone organizes it, an ordinary private house can hide hundreds of wizards.
The unfortunate ones who died were just enough to dispel the hatred of ordinary Muggles.
After dozens or hundreds of years have passed, when the convenience brought by magic is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, wizards will become de facto nobles.
The past wars and bloodshed will be forgotten. How many people remember that a small country in Bulgaria also participated in the war?
This is Grindelwald’s preview of the future – pessimistic, desperate, cold, cruel, and even the thought of it will attract a lot of criticism. So he withheld the **** remarks, but he knew Dumbledore would guess it himself.
This time it wasn’t that he was determined to provoke a war.
He even happily said comfortably: “There are more than 200 countries in the world~www.mtlnovel.com~ As long as each of them makes the right choice, war can be avoided.” He likes to see Dumbledore speechless. expression.
They’ve lived too long, they’ve seen too many ugly things, and it’s only Happ who has unrealistic fantasies and expects everything to work out. But that possibility… is too slim.
He and Dumbledore were both downright pessimists by nature, and their hearts had long been desolate.
In the dead silence, Dumbledore raised the goblet and smiled to the crowd:
“If hope is lost, what are we left with?”
The auditorium was still silent, as if someone had cast a whispering spell. Then, Dumbledore announced the end of the dinner, but no one moved, everyone stared at him, and some sensual girls burst into tears.
Dumbledore was quite moved. He took a light breath and said tremblingly: “Everyone can leave. In addition, the four deans of the academy, as well as Professor Haip and Professor Bagshot, come with me.” After speaking, he took the lead. Walk through the crowd and walk towards the door, followed by those whose names were named.
As he passed the Gryffindor students standing silently, Dumbledore paused slightly and looked at the crowd. Four eyes facing each other,
Harry understood at once.
He glanced back at the messy auditorium, exchanged glances with Ron and Hermione, and followed quietly, bending over. Behind him came the sound of pushing and screaming and Seamus’ angry shout: “I’m not going! I’m in sixth grade and I’m an adult!”
