"A light of hope that will never fade!" Evan repeated in a low voice.

Looking at a smiling Dumbledore, he suddenly understood what the old headmaster meant.

Just as the Patronus Charm, a happy emotion, can defeat an evil creature like the Dementors, it is a similar positive energy that can fight and defeat the evil gods, and the secret treasures left behind by the four founders refer to these energies.

It's not just simple happy emotions, but there are many things that are more complex, more persistent, and more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Embodiment is courage, protection, sacrifice, benevolence, justice, and so on!

These precious spiritual qualities that have been passed down at Hogwarts since the beginning of the four founders are what Dumbledore has always said about love, love for friends, love for loved ones, love for lovers, love for Hogwarts, love for light and beauty...... They are the true secret treasures of Hogwarts, the nemesis of all evil and darkness, and the unfading light of hope.

No matter how the times change and how long the darkness is, as long as they can be passed on, there will be hope.

"I see what you mean, Professor, the quality that the school has always emphasized, and the love you have always talked about, is actually a very strong magical energy. Evan pondered, "The treasure left by the four founders under Hogwarts is a magic made up of these spiritual qualities, emotions, and love, and I can turn it on to fight the evil gods and defeat Voldemort?"

"They have always been in our hearts, my dear child. Dumbledore said kindly, "It is the love that bursts from the depths of our hearts that can defeat the evil gods, not the magic left by the ancient wizards, do not understand this power narrowly, the main function of love is not to destroy or defeat opponents, but to heal." ”

"Healing?"

"Look at all this, what do you see?" Dumbledore's gaze crossed over Evan and into the distance.

Following his gaze, Evan looked into the space beyond the Magic Spiral.

He was silent for a long time, and said uncertainly, "A world that is being destroyed?"

"Yes, a world that is being destroyed. Dumbledore said, "In fact, what you see, what you are going through, and what you are about to face, is a continuation of a war that began thousands of years ago. ”

"I see what you're talking about, Professor!" Evan grew more and more confused.

"The ancient spellcasters made the mistake of using magic unscrupulously, attracting the attention of the powerful dark creatures of the void, and the evil gods descended on this land, leaving unhealable scars that have not healed to this day, and even though countless hidden methods and tricks have been used, the unforgivable karma of sins has never passed away. ”120

"Our world is the last home of mankind, and the monsters have retreated, but they remain hidden in the void, and for thousands of years they have been searching for ways to regain their back, influencing and infiltrating in various ways, tempting hateful and greedy ambitions to gain power, conquer death, sacrifice souls, and cause constant harm to our homeland. ”

"Only the kindness of reverence and compassion for all things, the courage to move forward, the wisdom to admit mistakes, and the love to sacrifice to save others, these are the only rays of hope that can be found when they are all in place, guiding humanity out of the darkness, ending this war, and healing the wounds of the earth, these are the purposes for which Hogwarts was founded, and the true test left by the four founders!"

Evan struggled to digest it, he knew some clues before, the four founders had more or less revealed some things about the last magical era and the origin of the evil gods, but he didn't say it explicitly, Dumbledore now connected everything.

"So, if Voldemort succeeds, then our world will be the way it is. "Love can defeat Voldemort and heal the damage he has done to the world, all of which are a continuation of the wars that began thousands of years ago?"

"That's right, this war has been going on for thousands of years and will continue. Dumbledore said, "Great power and the secret of death are the bait of the foolish ones thrown by the creatures of darkness...... In fact, I used to be one such fool, and I used to try to find a way to conquer death, no better than Voldemort. ”

"You're talking about the Deathly Hallows?" asked Aven, the secret of the Deathly Hallows that he had always wanted to know, Dumbledore's intentions and the special soul fragment "Tom Riddle" that Voldemort had left in the Resurrection Stone.

"Yes, Hallows!" Dumbledore murmured, "a desperate man's dream!"

Evan was surprised to see tears welling up in Dumbledore's bright blue eyes.

"Professor......

"You have seen with your own eyes that night, in the deserted mansion of the Gaunts, after seeing the Resurrection Stone, I was so dizzy with joy that I forgot that the ring must have a spell on it, and I took it up and put it on my hand, and in that moment I really thought I could atone for the sins I had committed in the past. Dumbledore said, tears still glistening in his eyes.

"Actually, I know a little bit about these things. After you left, I have explained some of your past past, and I feel that it is not you who really need atonement, but Grindelwald, and you don't need to blame yourself at all. ”

"You have not learned all, my dear child, that I am indeed guilty. Dumbledore said, "You know the secret of my sister's poor health, you know what those Muggles did, you know what became of her, you know that my poor father paid the price to avenge her and died in Azkaban, you know that my mother gave up her life to care for Ariana, but you don't know that I did deeply resent it all at the time!"

Dumbledore's account was frank and cold, and Evan didn't know how to comfort him.

"I've got talent, I'm good, I want to run away, I want to excel, I want to shine. Dumbledore said, pain coming over his face, making him look old again, "But don't get me wrong, I love them, I love my parents, I love my younger siblings, but I'm selfish, more selfish than you think." ”

"It's human nature that every one of us is selfish. ”

Dumbledore shook his head and continued, "After my mother's death, I was in charge of caring for a disabled sister and a wayward brother, and I returned to the village full of resentment and pain, thinking that I was trapped and wasting my time......!
