Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 103
c103 Choices after rebirth, feedback from the world
Opening his eyes, the panel jumped out directly.
[Gift] was wiped off as if it was smeared, and then a new entry was generated.
[Soul Control: Stick to your heart and control the soul. ]
After waking up, Gretel really realized how profound Voldemort’s research on the soul was.
In the world of Harry Potter, the weight of the soul is determined by his memory.
This is also what Voldemort discovered in the process of splitting his soul many times to create Horcruxes.
The notebook Horcrux was the first Horcrux he created, and it was also his most powerful Horcrux.
Voldemort did not inject his own memory into all the Horcruxes after the notebook, but simply used them as props to keep him immortal.
After realizing the power of the notebook Horcrux, Voldemort sealed the Horcrux.
It was not until he handed it over to Ginny that the seal was penetrated by Tom Riddle in the Horcrux.
But Tom Riddle in the notebook obviously didn’t know.
The most unfortunate thing was that he fell into Gretel’s hands and finally became the nourishment for Gretel’s growth.
However, even if there was no Gretel, he would definitely be destroyed by Harry.
Because of the competition between Horcruxes, this is fate and the end.
Including Voldemort himself, only one of them can survive.
Because of memory, the soul has weight.
Like the prisoners in Azkaban who had all their memories sucked away by Dementors with the Dementor’s Kiss.
Even if they die, their souls will not have their own consciousness when they go to the kingdom of the god of death.
Unlike Harry’s parents and Dumbledore in the future death station, they all have their own consciousness and can communicate with Harry.
Voldemort knew this situation a long time ago, so when Gretel asked him for his memory.
He would instill all his life’s memories into that small memory fragment.
In Voldemort’s view, a teenager, no matter how precocious, could not stay awake in his decades of memory.
Once Gretel fell into confusion in his memory flushing, he would never wake up again.
Even if he could wake up, he would most likely become a monster who lost his mind and only knew how to vent his pain.
Fortunately, with Groot and the wand, they awakened Gretel who was about to sink.
Gretel finally woke up and connected to the panel, overcoming the crisis.
It was also during this crisis that Gretel realized how dangerous the situation was.
Memory and soul complement each other. Memory is the foundation of the soul, and the soul is the carrier of memory.
The panel can protect his soul, just like when Tom Riddle tried to take over his body, he was digested by the panel.
However, the panel cannot protect his memory, because memory and soul are originally the same source.
Before he realized the harm of memory to the soul, the panel could not protect him autonomously.
Just like the body’s immune mechanism, it generally does not attack its own body unless it loses control.
Although Voldemort’s memory caused a crisis to him, the crisis was accompanied by opportunities.
He lost the gift, but gained [Soul Control]. It was precisely because of the new entry that Voldemort’s memory did not affect Gretel’s three views.
Now looking at Voldemort’s memory again, Gretel is like a third-party spectator, and will never sink or be affected.
What he has now, Voldemort will never want to know.
Even from some perspectives, Gretel knows Voldemort better than he does.
After extracting the relevant experience of Legilimency, the Legilimency level on the panel instantly rushed to LV7.
According to Gretel’s learning experience, the spells on the panel at level 0 are considered beginners, and LV7 is already the pinnacle.
When a spell reaches the pinnacle, it is easy to get rid of the constraints of the wand and the spell.
When Voldemort and Dumbledore used Legilimency, the existence of the spell seemed to be superfluous.
In addition to Legilimency, Gretel also obtained Voldemort’s research on brain occlumency.
As Gretel imagined, any Legilimency master would never give up the study of brain occlumency when practicing Legilimency.
In other words, every Legilimency master would also be a master of brain occlumency.
Gretel originally intended to obtain Legilimency from Voldemort, because he knew that the most powerful master of Occlumency was Snape, who was hiding under Voldemort’s nose as a double agent.
He originally planned to find an opportunity to meet Snape afterwards, after all, if he wanted to learn, he would learn the strongest.
But now he felt that it seemed unnecessary.
The Occlumency he had glimpsed from Voldemort’s memory had already reached the level of V6.
In the entire magical world, there were definitely not many people like Voldemort and Dumbledore who had practiced Legilimency to the pinnacle.
In other words, the results he wanted to achieve were all taken from Voldemort alone.
——
Because of this crisis, Gretel also gained something new, that is, he learned Voldemort’s ability to cut and copy memories.
He could completely pass on the knowledge related to spells in his brain to everyone in the Dawn through memory fragments.
However, he needed to grasp the scale of this, after all, everyone’s soul strength was different.
If he wanted to use this method to quickly arm everyone in the Dawn, it might cause many people to collapse.
In order to ensure the safety of this method, Grete still felt that he should find someone to conduct physical research.
Those evil Death Eaters are a good group of experimental materials.
After watching Voldemort’s memory, Grete felt that many of the things he had insisted on were not necessary to be so strict.
For example, in human experiments, he would still insist on not attacking innocent people.
But those guys who surrounded Voldemort’s wings, killed people like crazy, and even became psychopaths, can already be expelled from the human race.
For example, Walton McNeill, a psychopath who loves killing, is a loyal supporter of Voldemort.
Unlike those Death Eaters who are either forced by power or praying.
The opportunity for Walton McNeill to join is because of his yearning for death.
Under Voldemort, he can unscrupulously carry out “legal” killings.
When Voldemort was wreaking havoc in the wizarding world, what he loved most was burning, killing and looting. No matter if they were wizards or Muggles, they would be tortured and beheaded by him.
After Voldemort lost power, at a time when everyone was in danger, everyone wanted to escape, escape from the crime, and hide their identities.
But he was good. At that time when he was at the end of his rope, he still couldn’t forget the pleasure that death brought him.
Through illegal means, including but not limited to betrayal, bribery, threats, etc., he became the executioner of the Ministry of Magic.
In 1993, when Gretel was in the third year, it was the year when Sirius escaped from Azkaban.
Draco Malfoy was scratched by a hippogriff in the Care of Magical Creatures class. At that time, the Ministry of Magic issued a verdict, and the execution site was Walton McNeill’s execution room.
Yes, Walton McNeill transferred the pleasure of killing humans to magical animals.
This is also the only place where he can legally kill.
Therefore, when Gretel needed someone to do experiments, he was the first person he thought of.
Shortly after Voldemort was resurrected, he returned to the Death Eaters’ camp.
However, he followed Voldemort’s orders and continued to hide in the Ministry of Magic.
But now, this matter requires other people to act, and he himself has more important things to do.
Since Voldemort has torn his face with him, what he has to do now is to sell Voldemort’s information.
I believe Dumbledore must need his information.
He has already read the letter Dumbledore wrote to him. It is true that Dumbledore is the helmsman of the old era, but after noticing Gretel’s actions, his actions have already shown his attitude.
He will not board the ship, but he will not reject the appearance of Dawn. Turning a blind eye is his attitude.
Then, in this case, the Death Eaters, a group of guys who destroy social stability, have become a group that Dawn must attack.
As for joining the Order of the Phoenix to act together, I still decline.
After all, apart from him, Dawn can only be regarded as a few big cats and small cats, but they have no energy and no ability to fight the Death Eaters on the front line.
Provide some intelligence so that the elites of the Order of the Phoenix have time and purpose to vent their energy.
It will save them from circling around Dawn’s operatives from time to time. Although they don’t take action, the surveillance is annoying.
Find something for them to do, and the environment for Seni’s operation should be much more relaxed.
…
But sending intelligence is not so easy. If no one recommends it, even if the intelligence is sent out, it may not be taken seriously.
Maybe it will be regarded as a trap.
After Gretel defected from Hogwarts, yes, in the eyes of everyone in the Order of the Phoenix, Gretel’s behavior was defection.
After that, the smearing of Dumbledore was known to everyone with a discerning eye as Gretel’s means.
Voldemort never used it, or he didn’t realize the importance of public opinion.
However, even if he realized it, with his reputation, he might not be able to pull Dumbledore off the throne in a hundred years.
Gretel couldn’t do it either, but Cornelius Fudge, the power-hungry Minister of Magic, was too cooperative.
Fudge, who claims to be the greatest Minister of Magic, should have contributed at least 80% to the current public opinion atmosphere.
Without him, even if Gretel promoted for another ten years, only 10% of people would believe him at most, and even if they did, they would be skeptical.
It would not be like now, where he and Dumbledore’s supporters are almost tied.
As for who to find as an introducer, Gretel had already made up his mind.
According to the original plan, after Voldemort’s resurrection, Dawn would take advantage of Cornelius Fudge’s momentum to promote itself a little.
Expand the scale of the organization.
Wait until the prisoners of Azkaban escape on a large scale and the Death Eaters are officially formed.
Dawn came out openly and took in the worried wizards.
With the false prophet Grete, they knew that Voldemort would be officially overthrown in 1997.
At that time, Dawn’s development would not challenge the European magic world, but at least it would have the strength to protect itself.
Besides, they did not intend to start a war. At worst, they could just argue with the British wizards who were in urgent need of recuperation.
Anyway, the negotiations won’t hinder their development.
Besides, wizards, who are only one thousandth of the size of the entire earth, are not their most important target.
The Dawn can’t afford the war, and the magic world can’t afford it even more.
——
Now, because of Dumbledore’s letter, Gretel discovered that the biggest obstacle he thought was actually paying attention to him for several years.
Not only did he not stop him, but he pretended to be unaware of his actions, and even acquiesced.
Moreover, after Dawn conducted its own propaganda war, Gretel discovered that there were actually many natural allies in the magic world.
It was not at all like what he had deduced in school, with no relatives and no help.
The expansion of Dawn’s personnel and the development of its strength were much faster than he imagined.
It can be said that even without the Death Eaters as a buffer, their development speed would not seem to be that slow.
In this case, Gretel now feels that perhaps he can express his sincerity first and cooperate with Dumbledore a little.
After all, neither he nor Dumbledore likes Death Eaters who destroy social stability.
Destruction is much easier than construction.
A magic world ravaged by Death Eaters is not in the interests of any party no matter from which perspective.
Killing Death Eaters, tradition and reform, two concepts, may still evolve peacefully.
As long as no one intends to burn their boats, this situation is entirely possible.
Even if it is possible, even Voldemort does not want to take over a shabby magic world.
In his memory, Grete saw his vision of the magic world.
This group of Death Eaters who accompanied him to conquer the world and expected to become the best one day will be dealt with one by one by Voldemort after he ascends to the throne.
Except for the core group that he truly trusts, none of these Death Eaters can escape.
Eternal life is good, but the eternal life of a lonely person is not the future that Voldemort wants.
But now he has no choice, after failing once, he chose to join.
Destroy the magic world, kill all the opponents, and without resistance, he can pursue eternal life without worries.
However, after today, he no longer has to worry.
After he and Gretel completely broke up, he had no room to retreat.
Gretel only wanted to get some wool, but he wanted Gretel’s life.
After digesting Voldemort’s memory, Gretel realized that conspiracy and trickery could not be put on the table. What he wanted to do was reform, not rebellion.
Everyone who died in the wizard war may become the founder of the new era he wants to establish in the future.
Standing on the sidelines is actually condoning Voldemort.
After waking up, Gretel made a decision that he would rather compete with people in the old era for the channel than go along with Voldemort.
After Gretel had this realization, Gretel found that the connection between him and the magic particles suddenly became closer.
He knew that this had nothing to do with Voldemort’s memory, and Voldemort did not have this ability.
This is the world’s feedback.
Thanks to my book friends Ruixi and No Stars Night Sky for their monthly ticket support.
PS: Reform, reform, I almost went the wrong way, what conspiracy, as long as I make a contribution, in the general trend, how can I resist the chariot with my arms?
Unite all the forces that can be united to build a new era
