Reborn at Hogwarts - Chapter 147

c145 Afterwards, and what to do right now

What are you looking for?

This is really a good question…

Ivan couldn’t help but sneered in his heart.

Dumbledore looking for Harry Potter, what else can he do?

It’s nothing more than discussing life, talking about ideals, and inadvertently mentioning things about Voldemort.

But now, the plot has collapsed. The three of Heras Walger, Death and Paracelsus have squeezed Voldemort off the stage, and Dumbledore’s future focus will more or less shift away from Voldemort. .

It is hard to say whether it will be as committed to cultivating Harry Potter as a real man who is brave enough to sacrifice like the original book.

But there is still value as the last Horcrux, it depends on what Dumbledore wants to do.

Although he had a guess in his heart, on the surface Ivan still shook his head and said sincerely, “I don’t know.”

“Uh… well…” Although Harry was young, he could tell that the student who was one year older than him didn’t really want to talk to him, so he didn’t ask any more questions.

The two were silent all the way, and when they came to the door of the principal’s office, Harry thanked Ivan again, and then walked over the stone beast.

“Aren’t you with him?” The stone beast asked with a whimper.

“No. You can rest.” Ivan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Harry’s back disappearing through the door.

Although Dumbledore had indicated in the previous conversation that the outsiders in the castle had already left, Ivan was still not at ease after several previous experiences, so he specially sent Harry to the office.

The last Horcrux can’t die here.

…

Just like before, everything returned to calm after the war.

Except for a few students headed by Ivan, Hogwarts students don’t know what kind of appalling horror happened on Halloween night, whether it’s the big hole that was punched out by the basilisk, or the sudden departure of Professor Quirrell. On the spot, the professors weaved a series of appropriate reasons, so that the students would not doubt him.

Of course, doubts remain.

In the eyes of the Weasley twins, something big must have happened in the school, but it was not disclosed to the students because it would have a bad influence.

They firmly believed that this guess was correct, and they huddled in the corner of the Gryffindor common room every night, whispering with a piece of parchment that looked like a map, not knowing what they were discussing.

“It’s weird…they seem to be planning something.” During the chat with Zoe, Hermione said, “I wanted to go over to them several times to ask if they were thinking about how to violate the school rules, but they all seemed to It was as if eyes were opened behind me, and they slipped away before I took even two steps.”

“Hmph, I must find a chance to ask them what they want to do.” Hermione said angrily at last.

When Zoe conveyed these words to Ivan later, Ivan touched his chin, thinking that the Marauder’s Map had indeed been taken by the pair of live treasures.

Then he started thinking again, who was the guy who forged the Marauder’s Map last year.

Is it Geralt Vesemir, the cheap ancestor? Or the mysterious man in black? Or the faceless man? or it could be……

Every time he thinks like this, he will end up thinking about it but can’t come up with the result.

There is really too little information.

The conspiracies related to Paracelsus and the Kingdom of the Dead have basically surfaced, and their ultimate purpose can be fully resolved with only a few key elements, but only the black-robed wizard, the situation of this guy Ivan I don’t know anything.

Confused.

Generally speaking, his strength is not bad. He was able to fight Dumbledore head-on and get away. In hindsight, he did not lack any arms or legs.

His whereabouts are weird, always appearing in some unexpected places.

His goal is also very strange. At the beginning, he seemed to have good intentions towards Ivan. He not only helped him solve Alger Rozier, but also helped him unlock the crucial spell-casting ability, allowing him to embark on the road of magic. Lu——Although looking at it now, this may not be a good thing.

After several encounters, the attitude of the black-robed wizard changed again and again.

First, when the Christmas students came home from the holiday, they came to Ravenclaw’s common room and blew up the statue to take away the pocket watch whose purpose was still unknown. Later, they beat up Ivan and said that he should not continue to “go” like this .

During the vacation, Ivan just saw the black-robed wizard lift his hood from the memory of the house elf Frodo, revealing a face exactly like his. On the day he returned to school, he was blocked in front of the principal’s office.

Judging from the ferocious malice that the black-robed wizard was about to attack at that time, Ivan never felt that he was really Ivan from the future as he said.

In contrast, Ivan would rather believe the faceless man who appeared later – he still looks more like the future Ivan, maybe the black-robed wizard stole the faceless man’s face?

When you think about it, it’s a mess.

Beyond that, there’s the Tom Riddle problem.

After killing the basilisk, extinguishing Fiendflame and leaving Hogwarts, the second-generation Dark Lord completely disappeared from everyone’s sight.

He didn’t make a high-profile announcement of his return, didn’t come out to make trouble, and didn’t jump to the stage to openly provoke Dumbledore.

He took his Horcrux from the Room of Requirement, and then, like an ostrich, shrank completely to a place where no one could find it.

Oh, the “everyone” here refers to the Order of the Phoenix.

On the night when he talked with Ivan and Harry successively, Dumbledore summoned all the members of the Order of the Phoenix, confessed to them that Voldemort had returned, and at the same time briefly explained the situation of Paracelsus and the Kingdom of the Dead. I mentioned it.

As for why he didn’t just tell the whole story, in the follow-up conversation with Ivan, Dumbledore’s explanation was: I’m afraid they won’t be able to accept it for the time being.

Ivan thinks this reason is understandable…

After all, there are not only wizards in the Order of the Phoenix who are loyal to Dumbledore like Remus Lupine and Kingsley Shacklebolt, but there are also a lot of bad-minded guys like Mundungus Fletcher. .

Although most of these people are only peripheral members, it is difficult to completely hide the internal affairs from them, so it is better to suppress them for now.

The key points that need to be paid attention to are clearly stated, so that members of the Order of the Phoenix will not be sacrificed due to insufficient intelligence.

By the way, during this time, Dumbledore would often ask Ivan to come to the office to talk.

The content of the conversation was the same old three over and over again: what Paracelsus is going to do now, where the reborn Voldemort has gone, and Heras Valgar, a giant transformed from a giant wearing a feather coat. Eagle, how does he want to get his own “compensation”?

These problems are really more than one bald.

But there is good news in the face of difficulties.

After Dumbledore and the “principals in the portrait” took turns to identify it, it is basically certain that the symptoms of the “petrification” did not come from the diary itself, but were caused by Ivan’s glimpse of the kingdom of the dead.

As for why it hasn’t been encountered before, Dumbledore believes that perhaps the problem lies in the snowflakes that have turned into feathers.

No conclusion can be drawn on this matter for the time being, so it can only be put aside, but fortunately, Ivan can continue to read Rowena Ravenclaw’s memories boldly, at worst, when he encounters the scene of the kingdom of the dead, he will immediately Just get away.

However, according to Dumbledore’s proposal, Ivan still decided to put the matter of exploring memory later.

He will make a decision after he meets Nicole Flamel.
