Chapter 1095: The Only Weakness

Such a tragic experience is enough to crush anyone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Especially for a wizard as gifted as Dumbledore, his childhood was not much happier than that of Tom Riddle.

He had good reason to hate Muggles, and at the same time, he had enough power, enough conditions and the possibility to become an evil dark wizard.

Not to mention, there are many people with ulterior motives around him.

These men revered purebloods, believing that the glory of bloodlines and the glory of wizards needed to be built on the trampling and subjugation of Muggles.

Because of their pure-bloods, the family's reputation, and what happened to Dumbledore's father and sister, they took it for granted that Dumbledore was also a Muggle-hater, and even praised his father's actions with relish, hoping that Dumbledore would be their leader.

Just like Voldemort did, become the leader chosen by these people and lead them back to their former glory.

In fact, for a period of time, Dumbledore did have this tendency.

Thankfully, he was Dumbledore, and he woke up at a critical moment, which was one of his great things.

Perhaps, character is really innate, no matter what fate and environment are, some people are born with a bright heart, while some people will only complain about the injustice of fate, degenerate step by step, and do evil things as a matter of course.

They shout loud slogans and go to harm others with peace of mind for the greater good.

Like Lord Voldemort, his so-called pure-blood theory is nothing more than turning him into a monster that everyone fears.

But Dumbledore was not such a person, he knew what love was, and he believed that the interests were far higher than others.

"I don't want to say how great I am, Aven, or make excuses for my father's incriminating evidence. Dumbledore said, "But I must admit that at the time I resented all this, and I thought fate was unfair." ”

Dumbledore's voice was frank and cold, and his gaze now swept over Evan's head, still on top of the spire.

A narrow window opened at the top of the tower, and Evan didn't know if Grindelwald was there.

Did he notice Dumbledore's arrival, did he look at his old friend there?

They hadn't seen each other in so many years since the Battle of the Century.

But it is certain that they must have cared for each other because they once shared a common philosophy.

Or rather, something beyond the idea, more pure feelings.

"At that time I resented the injustice of fate, I had talent, I was good, I wanted to escape, I wanted to escape from my responsibility, I wanted to be outstanding, I wanted to be glorious. Dumbledore continued, pain coming over his face, making him look even older, "But don't get me wrong, Aven, I love them, I love my parents, I love my younger siblings, but I'm selfish, far more selfish than the world thinks. ”

"According to the tradition of the time, young wizards graduating from Hogwarts would travel the world, visit and observe wizards abroad, visit and learn from famous wizards, and then pursue their respective careers. "But I couldn't get going, and on my graduation day, my mother died, and since then, I have been responsible for caring for a disabled sister and a wayward brother, and I have returned to the village full of resentment and pain." I thought I was stuck, wasting my time! And then, needless to say, he came......"

"Is it Grindelwald, Professor?" asked Evan softly.

"Yes, Grindelwald, you can't imagine how his ideas attracted me and inspired me. We were attracted to each other, and I have to admit that he was the man I was meant to be. We have the same philosophy, we have lofty ideals, and everything he has perfectly makes up for my shortcomings. ”

"For the greater good!" Dumbledore repeated, "I came up with this sentence at the time, and it may be a little different than you might think, I originally uttered this empty sentence only to comfort my ridiculous conscience, all for the greater good, and any harm caused would bring a hundredfold benefit to the wizarding world." Honestly, do I know in my heart what kind of person Gellert Grindelwald is? I think I do, but I turn a blind eye. As long as our plans can be realized, all my dreams will come true. ”

"As you may already know, we have a lot of plans, but at the heart of them are the Deathly Hallows! How obsessed they are with him, how obsessed with the two of us! A magic wand that never loses, a weapon that can give us power! The Resurrection Stone, to him means an army of corpses, but I pretend not to know! For me, I admit, it means the resurrection of my parents and the relieverance of all my responsibilities. ”

"And the Cloak of Invisibility......" Evan reminded.

"Yes, and the Cloak of Invisibility, but somehow, we don't talk much about the Cloak of Invisibility, both of us are powerful wizards, and we can hide ourselves well without the Cloak of Invisibility. Dumbledore said, "The Cloak of Invisibility will not help us significantly, and we have overlooked the wisest of the three Deathly Hallows." Of course, the real magic of the Cloak of Invisibility lies in the fact that it can be used to protect and shield not only the owner, but also others. At the time, I thought that if we could find it, we might be able to use it to hide Ariana, but we were only interested in the Cloak of Invisibility because it was one of the three elements, because according to legend, the one who possessed all three things at the same time was the true conqueror of death, and we understood that to mean invincible. ”

"Invincible Conqueror of Death, Grindelwald and Dumbledore! I was so enchanted that I traveled the world with Grindelwald to find information, and my mind was full of cruel dreams, ignoring the two people left in my family who needed my care. ”

"Later......" Dumbledore shook as Aven hurriedly grabbed his arm, "and then, my rough, uncultured brother, who was actually much better than me, appeared. I didn't want to hear the truth he yelled at me, and I didn't want to hear that I was being dragged down by a weak, unstable sister who couldn't go in search of the Hallows. ”

"The quarrel escalated into a duel, Grindelwald lost control, and the kind of thing in his personality that I had always felt, but always pretended not to find, suddenly erupted horribly. Dumbledore said simply, tears soaking his eyes once more, "Ariana, after so much care and care for my mother, fell to the ground and died. ”

Evan held Dumbledore tightly, he knew that this was the truth that Dumbledore was afraid to know.

After facing so many things, this has become the only weakness in his soul.
