Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 111

c111 trial

If there hadn’t been a counter-curse of Apparition set up by the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore would have been able to react even if he was attacked suddenly.

However, there is no if in everything. The green killing curse, accompanied by Voldemort’s piercing laughter, hit Dumbledore’s body directly.

“I’m really old!” Dumbledore thought of the scene of the long-distance call with Gretel on the day of the action.

“With such thorough preparations, no one should fail.” Gretel said with a smile.

Dumbledore also unloaded the burden on his heart for the first time in a long time. Indeed, Gretel helped them complete all the preliminary work.

The rest is the relatively simplest finishing link. It is still dangerous, but compared to the enemy in the dark and us in the light, fighting the Death Eaters in the dark.

This situation is now a simple mode that has never been imagined.

Even with Severus as an insider, he never thought that the decisive battle with the Death Eaters led by Voldemort would become so simple.

In fact, Voldemort’s words did not cause much disturbance to Dumbledore.

He was in a trance because he thought of the doubts he had always unconsciously brought to his eyes when he looked at every little wizard who came to Hogwarts from the orphanage to study in the past few decades.

He really didn’t want another Voldemort to appear under his nose.

Especially for Gretel.

After Voldemort’s complaints, Dumbledore suddenly thought that Gretel was alienated from him because she felt his distrust.

Voldemort’s sudden attack not only surprised Dumbledore, but also made everyone present feel nervous.

Many people were exclaiming in their hearts, it’s over, the only person who can compete with the Dark Lord is gone, what should they do in the future.

The green color representing death reflected a clear trace in Dumbledore’s eyes.

He could already sense the malice contained in the Killing Curse, and the naked and undisguised wish for his death was so obvious.

A second before the curse came, a voice rang in Dumbledore’s ear, “Old man, I told you not to set a flag, but you didn’t believe it. You’re just like the old general on the stage…”

Grete suddenly appeared beside Dumbledore, telling a joke that only he could understand.

Fortunately, Voldemort talked a lot. If he had said one second less, even if Grete turned into a magic particle, he would not have been able to rescue him in time.

The moment before the light of the killing curse came, Grete cast his own protective spell on Dumbledore, ‘Utopia. ‘

That was the first spell he created after entering the magic world, and the inspiration was given to him by Voldemort in class.

It was also from that time that he officially stepped into the door of transforming and creating spells.

This spell also symbolizes the uneasy heart he had when he first entered the magic world. He longed for one day to use this spell to resist the magic world’s unsolvable death curse for him.

However, in later research, he found that this spell was too perfect, which led to its upper limit being locked tightly, and it could only block evil curses against the body, and there was no possibility of resisting the death curse against the soul.

The effectiveness of the death curse is based on the thoughts that flowed out of the wand along with the spell.

Fortunately, this problem was successfully solved after he obtained Voldemort’s memory.

As the person who knows Professor Voldemort best in the world, Gretel’s modified Utopia really has the ability to resist the death curse that he once desired.

In other words, Utopia may not be able to block the death curse of anyone else in the world, but it can definitely block Voldemort’s death curse firmly.

Gretel doesn’t even need to bring the belief of protection when casting the spell, just need to say no to Voldemort’s deadly thoughts in a targeted manner, and the death curse can turn the death curse into a perfect firework.

Of course, it is the same now. Gretel put a protective spell on Dumbledore in time, and the death curse is about to take Dumbledore to the kingdom of death.

At the last moment, he hit the utopia that seemed to be a thin layer, but was actually like a fortress wall.

There were no fireworks, and the round spherical shield only had a small ripple, and then it calmed down in an instant.

When Gretel’s true body appeared, Snape, who was going to capture Nagini, also arrived at the scene.

In front of Voldemort, Gretel destroyed the Horcrux he brought with him, and by the way, crushed Nagini, who killed Snape in the original world line, to ashes.

All these actions were completed in a flash.

Afterwards, after splitting the Horcruxes many times, Voldemort, whose brain was not working well, completely fell into madness.

To deal with Dumbledore, Gretel might still be in a mess, but to deal with Voldemort, Gretel only needed to immerse himself in his memory.

Following his habit, the Dark Lord who had fled for most of the night had no power at all.

No matter what kind of spell he used, Gretel could always use targeted spells faster than him.

In order to prevent any more trouble, Gretel spared no effort to use up all of Voldemort’s magic power.

After a disarming spell and a sleepy ending, Voldemort fell to the ground with an unwilling expression.

…

The first courtroom on the tenth floor of the Ministry of Magic.

Voldemort’s limbs were tied tightly, and he sat in the center of the courtroom.

Surrounded by Wizengamot councillors in purple robes, serious-looking Ministry of Magic officials, and the various major families in the Ministry of Magic with many seats vacant.

Dumbledore cleared his throat, and his majestic voice resounded throughout the courtroom.

“Voldemort, real name Tom Riddle, has committed murder, war crimes, attempted subversion of the magic world… more than 30 crimes in the past few decades. Do you plead guilty?”

Voldemort was not willing to answer at all, but just glanced around coldly, “My mistake was that I didn’t kill all of you insects. Don’t worry, even if I go to hell, I will crawl back again and take you down one by one.”

His gloomy and evil voice seemed to whisper in everyone’s ears, and everyone who heard his voice shuddered.

It has been too long. If it were more than a decade ago, when the Death Eaters were the craziest, even if they caught Voldemort, they would not dare to sit in this courtroom so openly to observe the trial of the Dark Lord.

However, when they heard Voldemort’s curse again, all those who had experienced that dark time couldn’t help but recall the embarrassment of that time.

However, then, their eyes burst into anger as if it was real.

Indeed, their fear of Voldemort was almost deep in their bones. No one was not afraid that the Dark Lord would come to their door with his group of crazy vicious dogs.

But so what? Now, the Dark Lord, who was once invincible in the magic world, is just a poor prisoner.

The news on the market has spread like wildfire. The magic props that the Dark Lord relied on to revive have been completely destroyed. He has no chance to come back.

Then what are they afraid of? The fear in their hearts turned into the nourishment of anger, and the serious atmosphere in the courtroom gradually became chaotic.

All the people sitting here, except for the Wizengamot councillors, the necessary Ministry of Magic officials, and the reporters who were responsible for writing newspapers.

All the remaining people, who has no deep hatred for Voldemort.

Many of their relatives and friends did not even show up, but just hid at home.

They would be dragged out and tortured to death by the unscrupulous Death Eaters.

When they recalled those unbearable days, the new and old hatreds in their hearts completely broke out.

“Kill him, kill him!”

Dumbledore raised his wand and cast a spell, and the courtroom was instantly silent.

The wizards of the Wizengamot reached a consensus on the punishment for Voldemort before the trial.

It is true that the magic world rarely uses the death penalty. Even for those who are unforgivable, they usually throw the prisoners into Azkaban after sentencing.

But Voldemort is different. Not to mention those servants who are hidden very deeply, his magic power alone is not something that the Dementors in Azkaban can control.

Moreover, according to Gretel’s information, Dumbledore already knew that the Death Eaters had been secretly contacting the Dementors for a long time.

Putting Voldemort in Azkaban is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain.

Therefore, there is only one punishment that they have reached a consensus on, and that is the death penalty.

And because Voldemort’s research on the soul was too profound, his soul must be destroyed at the same time as his body.

However, all the spells that can target the souls of the dead in the magic world have been lost without exception.

Perhaps there are clues in the library of a “big” family.

However, in the current order of the magic world, no one dares to take it out.

Finally, I don’t know who is smart enough to come up with his own solution, the Dementors.

Just a few days before the trial of Voldemort, Harry Potter used the Patronus to drive away the Dementors that appeared inexplicably on Privet Drive to protect himself and his Muggle cousin.

After that, they conducted the trial and defense of Harry Potter here.

This proposal was agreed by almost everyone. The role of the Dementors is not only to absorb the happy memories of the people around them, but also to destroy the souls of prisoners with their “mouths” hidden under the hood.

Those prisoners who were imprisoned in Azkaban and collapsed were executed by Dementors in this way.

Therefore, even though wizards are extremely annoyed with Dementors, they have to praise this idea.

Voldemort does not intend to plead guilty, but this trial is not just a simple trial.

In order to restore order, they must show Voldemort’s trial process to all wizards.

This is the real purpose of this trial.

…

In addition to Voldemort, there is another person involved in this trial.

It is the former Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge who sat next to Voldemort and turned gray overnight and looked depressed after Voldemort was captured.

In the past month, he waved the flag and shouted in the magic world, saying that Voldemort’s return was alarmist.

He once manipulated the public opinion of the entire magic world. If Voldemort had not been caught, I don’t know how many people would die in the war in the future.

The voices of everyone shouting to execute Voldemort just now scared the fat former Minister of Magic Zhang pale.

After being the Minister of Magic for many years, he really forgot the time when the Death Eaters once ravaged the magic world.

In order to keep his position as a minister and the power in his hands, he did not hesitate to go out in person to dispel the “rumors”.

Now, after seeing the jury’s hatred for Voldemort, Cornelius Fudge realized how big a mistake he had made.

——

In early August, the Ministry of Magic’s Daily Prophet had its first additional issue day, with more than ten additional issues in one day, becoming the best-selling publication in the magic world that month.

There was no other way. The Ministry of Magic’s courtroom only allowed reporters directly under the Ministry of Magic to enter.

Only the Daily Prophet could get first-hand information on this kind of exclusive news.

Whether it was Voldemort’s wild words in court, or his gradual exhaustion in front of the Dementors, and later, he was torn to pieces by the wizards who rushed over, leaving no trace.

Everything was printed out in its entirety.

Former Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge, because of his good attitude of confession, donated all his property just to compensate all wizard families who had been harmed by Death Eaters.

Therefore, the Wizengamot Council announced in front of all officials of the Ministry of Magic that his position as Minister of Magic would be abolished, and the former Director of the Auror Office Rufus Scrimgeour would take over the position of Minister of Magic.

On the first day of his appointment, Rufus Scrimgeour, the new Minister of Magic, brought up old accounts. All the Death Eaters who had been imprisoned in Azkaban and had committed heinous crimes but had retained their lives and were sentenced to life imprisonment were executed.

Of course, no one knew that the wizards were lamenting that the British magic world had welcomed an iron-blooded minister.

The Death Eaters who had been announced to be executed and were actually wrapped like mummies were stuffed into a Muggle freighter and sailed along the coastline to Moldova on the edge of Europe.

There was no way, many of Grete’s current research projects could not lack “volunteered” experimental subjects.

However, not conducting human experiments on humans was his life principle.

In the end, this heavy burden had to fall on the Death Eaters who only had human forms but no human hearts.

Scrimgeour believed that these extremely evil Death Eaters would definitely use their “efforts” to wash away the sins they had carried in the past in the future.

At least, that’s what Mike Grete, the leader of Dawn, promised him. He promised that the research results would benefit everyone in this world, whether they were wizards or Muggles.

His contact with Dawn was before Dawn was officially launched.

By chance, he came into contact with Seni Diergo, a senior cadre of Dawn.

Even now, he was amazed by that young man. Every proposal he put forward was perfectly in line with his heart.

However, in the past, he only knew to protect Muggles and live in peace with them, but he had no idea how to do it.

Fortunately, he later met Mike Grete, the light of the future in his eyes.

Everything, for the new era.
