Chapter 467 462. We can help him repair it
Hogwarts Headmaster’s Office
A Gryffindor student was reporting to Dumbledore and Dudley who were sitting in their seats.
“In the past month, McLagan went to the Room of Requirement twenty-eight times, staying for more than an hour each time, and tried to use the disappearing cabinet a total of one hundred and twenty-eight times.”
“Without exception, they all failed…”
“During this period, he got angry a total of thirty-five times, smashed thirty-four teacups, tore twenty-four books and kicked five stools.”
The Gryffindor recounted everything McLagen had done as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
“The record is very detailed. Thank you for your contribution to Hogwarts.”
After hearing the other party’s report, Dudley praised him without hesitation, and the latter was extremely excited after hearing the compliment.
“Go and report to Luna. As long as you pass the test, you can become a member of the disciplinary team.”
“Yes Mr. Dursley, it’s my pleasure!!!”
The Gryffindor student shouted excitedly.
There are many students like this Gryffindor in Hogwarts. It can be said that almost everyone is monitoring Cormac McLaggen intentionally or unintentionally. Only he doesn’t know it yet. He thinks that he It was done very covertly and no one noticed.
After the Gryffindor student left, Dudley turned to Dumbledore and said, “Professor Dumbledore, the school’s defense facilities are basically completed, but McLaggen’s repair progress is faster than I thought. Be slow.”
“Not only was the disappearing cabinet not repaired, it actually got worse because of his random temper.”
“To choose a Gryffindor who is nothing but reckless. Senior Tom made a really bad move.”
To expect a character who was designated by the author to be only a reckless Gryffindor to do a very delicate job, it was already a great restraint for him not to directly dismantle the disappearing cabinet.
It is best to go to Hufflepuff to do this kind of thing. They are patient and careful enough, and they are not as clever as Ravenclaw and Slytherin.
“Even if we knew nothing and did nothing, the chance that he would fix it is almost zero.”
Dudley spread his hands and said to Dumbledore.
Not to mention him, even Dumbledore was speechless. Voldemort really chose the wrong person when it came to selecting people.
Like Snape, Lucius, and… well… things like that.
In fact, this cannot be completely blamed on Voldemort. He really has no one available. Not all Slytherins are Death Eaters. There are also many neutrals. At best, they have a cooperative relationship with the Death Eaters, so He only had a few choices in total. Since he had given up on Crabbe and Goyle and regarded them as attention-grabbing fish, he could only choose McLaggen.
“Looks like we’ll have to wait a long time, Dudley.”
Dumbledore said as he drank a glass of lemonade-like drink through a straw.
Dudley didn’t know exactly what it was made of, but he was sure it was very sweet.
Dumbledore really, really likes sweets. He can’t live without them almost every day. He always eats sweets in his spare time.
If you don’t eat for a day, you will feel uncomfortable all over.
Dudley suspected he was a bit sugar-addicted.
“No, Professor. I don’t think we should have to wait too long.”
Dumbledore put down his drink after hearing this and waited for his next words.
“We can also help him repair it.”
Dudley’s attention made Dumbledore a little surprised. Helping the enemy repair this was indeed something he didn’t expect.
But if you think about it carefully, Dudley was right. They could still help him repair it, and they could even have the final say on when it was repaired and when it could be used.
Turn passivity into initiative.
Who makes the person Voldemort is looking for unreliable?
“When all the defense facilities are completed, we can start to help repair the disappearing cabinet. My alchemy level is not bad, so I think it can be repaired.”
Repairing the Vanishing Cabinet is not difficult, at least not for Dudley. Even the original Malfoy can repair it.
“By the way, what do you think about the matter I discussed with you before?”
Dudley suddenly asked.
“You mean you were accidentally defeated and ‘lost’ the Elder Wand?”
As he spoke, Dumbledore took another sip of the drink that looked like lemon juice, considered it carefully before speaking, and revealed the secret of the Elder Wand: “Dudley, you may not know the characteristics of the Elder Wand. Whether you lose or fake it, even if it’s fake, the owner of the Elder Wand will change.”
As the least loyal wand, even if you use it to fight match-fixing, the Elder Wand will change hands as long as you lose.
Only wizards who are “invincible and invincible” are worthy of possessing it, and it will only stand on the side of the winner.
“Professor Dumbledore, there is no need to use the real Elder Wand, we just need to find an equally powerful wand for him.”
“Senior Tom has never owned the Elder Wand, has he? He doesn’t know the power of the Elder Wand, he only knows that it is very powerful.”
What good things had Voldemort seen? The wand he used before was bought from Ollivander’s when he was in school.
This is the truth, right
“So…where do we find a wand like this?”
Dumbledore followed his words very cooperatively. Since Dudley said this, it means that he has a solution.
Dudley paused and said, “Professor, I can actually make wands.”
‘Is there anything you can’t do? ’
Listening to Dudley’s words, Dumbledore sighed unconsciously in his heart.
He never thought that decades ago, the little girl Petunia, who had no magical talent and wanted to come to Hogwarts, would have such an outstanding child.
As if he came here to make up for his mother’s regrets, he could do almost everything about magic with perfection.
Even better than Tom back then, at least when Tom was in school he was only outstanding as a student, while Dudley was not only outstanding himself but also led his classmates.
Simply the perfect leader.
Just like Gellert back then, maybe even better than him?
‘Oh, he doesn’t have the gift of a prophet. ’
Dumbledore thought of this, smiled softly and shook his head. Just when Dudley showed doubts, he continued the topic: “You mean you want to make a wand? Making a wand is not a simple matter. Even I can’t.”
Making wands is also a type of alchemy, but it requires more professionalism. Although Dumbledore’s alchemy is good, he does not have the talent to make wands.
Who knew that just after he finished saying this, he saw Dudley taking something out of his pocket.
Shouldn’t it be.
Dumbledore’s heart skipped a beat.
