"I've asked so many questions at once, how do you ask me to answer you?" Dumbledore stood up, wearing a flowing black robe. His voice was calm and unhurried.

"Of course, it's more important to pick up. Silver shook his head, "I'm busy right now, after all, the Adversary will soon be coming to Hogwarts with his minions, and I can't afford to miss a war that will go down in the history of magic." ”

"You can't help much, Jack. Dumbledore walked towards Silver, his steps steady and his expression serious. "I know you've got the Golden Legion of the Elves, but you don't understand that this war is only between those two people, and your efforts are meaningless. ”

"I'm disappointed by your answer. "I thought you'd pretend to say, 'Ah, that's it,' and go out with me to fight the Adversary." ”

The wand swirled fanciously in Silver's hand.

"You know something about it, but you don't understand what that means. Dumbledore sighed, "Not only did I stun Slughorn, but I erased a memory of him. In fact, he had been asleep in the principal's office for two weeks. You ask me why I'm hiding here, because I want to correct my mistakes. ”

"Hi, Professor Dumbledore. "If it were a different time, I'd be happy to play a game of pantoma with you." But time is really tight right now, can you tell me the point? Are you friend or foe to me right now?"

"I don't know. Dumbledore closed his eyes.

"That's not the attitude of the conversation. Silver gripped his wand, "If you're still Dumbledore, then take your wand and go out with me to fight the Adversary! I don't want to know what you did before!

"No, it's not a matter of magic. Dumbledore shook his head, "I did respawn through a Horcrux, but I'm still me. Albus Percival Woolfrick Brian Dumbledore was not a saint in the first place. ”

"I didn't think you were going to question me like you were now. Dumbledore said. "I envisioned that it would be Harry Potter who would ask me that. ”

"Do you mean I'm not as foolish as Harry Potter?" said Silver with a slight mockery, "Dumbledore, what the hell are you trying to do now?"

"I know Voldemort, and I know the current one. Dumbledore didn't answer Silver's question directly, "Because I could have become a dark wizard like them." Have you seen Lady Bathilda—is she alright?"

Dumbledore's current state is indeed a bit odd, and his words are very jumpy.

"I've seen it. Silver said, "Just so undead that I don't want to leave that altar of life in my life." ”

"Really?" said Dumbledore, "now that you've seen her, you know what I was like when I was young—pretentious, yet feeling that my life was being dragged down by my crippled sister and wayward brother, and that I was wasting my days in vain. ”

"Until Greenwald's arrival. An indescribable smile appeared on Dumbledore's face, "It's not so much that he influenced me. Rather, I was the guide who perfected his theory - Muggles were forced to submit, and we wizards raised their eyebrows. Grindelwald and I were the glorious young leaders of this revolution. ”

"Does this sound no different from what Voldemort and the current Adversary are saying?" said Dumbledore, his face tired.

"But you didn't become a wizard like them. Silver said.

"No, actually, my mind hasn't changed. Dumbledore said, "I didn't become them because I was a coward and I was scared." Ariana's death made me realize that there will be many people who will die like her if I want to achieve my ideals. Call me hypocritical or cowardly. I was really scared, scared that more people would die because of me. ”

"Then you should stand up and stop them now. Silver said in a deep voice. "Since you're afraid to see sacrifice—"

"After dying once, my mind changed a little. Dumbledore said, "I defeated Greenwald, and then Voldemort appeared, and I killed Voldemort, and new Adversaries came out - each one stronger than the other, why?" This is because the current state of the wizarding world is desperate for wizards, and there will always be wizards who will try to stand up and save the wizarding world. ”

"Wizards of my level are people with strong beliefs, and strong beliefs always lead us to conclusions that we think are right. Dumbledore said, "The wizarding world is dying: populations of magical creatures are dying. The wizards are not as powerful as before, and we can only go into hiding, but our numbers and territory are getting smaller and smaller. Five hundred years ago, there were more than 100 wizarding colonies in England, three large-scale magical towns, how many are left now? One day, Muggles will discover us, and the wizarding world will no longer be a mystery to them. ”

Silver was silent, he knew Dumbledore was right.

"A lot of people don't understand the power of silence, but everyone is scared, and anyone with a discerning eye can see the threat of Muggles. So why do dark wizards who want to rule the world always find allies and accomplices? Dumbledore smiled wryly, "What is the state of our wizarding world now? the number of people is getting smaller and smaller, society is shrinking, the industry is shrinking, and many wizards can't find a job in the wizarding world, so they can only find their place in the Muggle world. The birth rate of wizards is hitting a record low every year, and the number of squibs is increasing year by year. We were chasing the Muggle trend, and many wizards were secretly casting spells on Muggle objects - because Muggle creations were much more interesting and useful than we did, and Arthur Weasley was busy every day, even though he was secretly modifying Muggle cars himself. ”

Dumbledore squeezed out an ugly smile, "I have to admit that some dark wizards or pure-blood defenders say that the wizarding world is actually slowly sliding into the abyss. Why was Greenwald able to sweep Europe? Why did Voldemort have few minions and make the entire wizarding world tremble? Why did this demon expand his power to other continents now? They didn't all rely on violence, most wizards actually chose them on their own initiative, because wizards are like them in their hearts. They are also part of the wizards, and not everything is negative - they are the epitome of the hysteria of the wizarding world. (To be continued.) )
