So the original setting was turned upside down...... Anyway, I think that's actually not bad.

The former Dark Lord's and now half-blood elves (Qi Clan) who were sold by the Lake Fairy (Witch) to the Centaur Clan for the Son of Gaia (Light Source) cultivation program are free......

Ahem, the corners of the mouth are raised, and the words in parentheses are the truth, all of them are illusions, um.

PS: Anyway, I find myself wanting to be a Riddle boy more and more.

=====================================

Sword 7 (Reversed): Useful advice.

、

Hogwarts: The Forbidden Forest

、

"I'm sorry, because I didn't expect that person to fight in two fronts, so I was late to help."

On the periphery of the Centaur Clan's quarter, Dumbledore looked at his old friend apologetically, "It doesn't matter if the casualties are lost here, right?" ”

"We have the help of His Highness Opal's friends, and there is not much damage."

Sweeping over Dumbledore's colorful and unusually eye-catching clothes, which were more pajamas than robes, Charon looked away with a black line on his head, "But how are you doing there?" Now the jubilation of the wizarding world has been heard even by us in the Forbidden Forest. ”

"Although it can be relieved for the time being, it cannot be said to be completely good news."

To this, Dumbledore was only vague, "The man who was the leader was really, literally, 'gone'." The Death Eaters were leaderless, so the hunt went well, but ...... It cannot be said that now is the victory. ”

The nobles in the wizarding world are intertwined with each other, and even the attitude of the Ministry of Magic is hesitant because the scope of this matter is too wide. Many old cases have been retried and retried and reversed, but no one knows how many new unjust prisons have arisen in the "truth" that seems to have been revealed.

And he has a weak heart.

The nobles are not brainless fools, because of the power they can be loyal to that person, but for the same reason, they can choose to betray or neutralize, and want to use Voldemort's "downfall" as an opportunity to completely clean up the entire wizarding world?

Oh, Merlin...... Maybe only that adult can accomplish this "miracle".

"No matter what, it's a fact that you can breathe a sigh of relief after all."

It's not that I don't understand the root cause of Dumbledore's frowning at the moment, but as the leader of the centaur clan of non-human creatures, Charon will agree to protect the Forbidden Forest because the entire Forbidden Forest is the habitat of their centaur clan, and the school establishment contract back then also has a stipulation, so he can't do it, but that doesn't mean that he is willing and doesn't feel that he has the need and obligation to get into the muddy waters of the wizarding world.

But at the moment, Dumbledore can also be considered good news.

The Son of Gaia, who had been cut off for five hundred years, has reappeared, and the growth of humanity is neither fast nor slow, but the current period of peace should be enough for the Son of Gaia to grow and then re-lead the entire natural and magical biological world.

"Speaking of which, the movement here in the Forbidden Forest last night wasn't small, what else happened besides the Death Eater invasion?"

That's something Dumbledore had always wanted to ask.

It wasn't that there was a leak, but that even on the outskirts of the Centaur quarters, a sad but cheerful atmosphere could still be felt from the garrison - after knowing each other for so long, Dumbledore didn't think that just one defeat of the invaders would be enough to make the colony of the Forbidden Forest so happy.

"A succession that has been severed for five hundred years has begun again."

Even though he lost his best friend because of this, Caron couldn't help but be proud of the baby's true identity after confirming it.

"Five hundred years of inheritance have been severed...... Could it be that the Son of Gaia has returned? ”

Remembering the documents he had read, Dumbledore was stunned, but then frowned, "So, is it still the elven clan as the descendant?" ”

"Not really."

At the mention of this incident, even Charon looked a little depressed, "This time the son of Gaia is a human foal. ”

"Huh?"

Because of the unexpected answer, Dumbledore almost thought that he was having auditory hallucinations, "This 'Son of Gaia'...... Came as a human?! ”

But before he could get an answer, there was a commotion in the centaur station.

"Dear Charon!"

After that, Fei Lengcui, who was holding a well-wrapped baby in her arms, ran out of the station in a bit of a daze, "Your Highness...... Your Highness, she ......"

As he spoke, there was a subtle, tiny ripple of mana in the air, similar to a commotion.

"What is it like to be so panicked!"

Although he was so reprimanded, Charon still took the baby from his arms and hugged it carefully, and then looked at the baby who seemed to have an abnormal red face at the moment and frowned, "This situation ......"

"This is the legendary 'Son of Gaia'?"

Looking at the baby in Caron's arms, Deng Liduo couldn't hide his curiosity, "What's going on, can I take a look?" ”

"Yes, the human foal is not like us, so it's a bit tricky."

Charon didn't particularly mind, after all, the body structure of the centaurs was different from that of humans, so he didn't know what was going on with the "Son of Gaia" at the moment.

"Is this a fever?"

Dumbledore, who took the baby and judged the baby's state at a glance, was stunned for a moment because of the baby's open eyes, "Uh, this is ......"

She looked to be about a year old, with white hair as soft as fine hair growing on her head, and a pair of clear eyes like the finest pigeon's blood rubies were looking at the older man holding her with curiosity.

What surprised him the most was the lightning-shaped scar on the baby's forehead.

Just a few hours earlier, he had seen a scar of the same shape in the same location—on the forehead of the black-haired, green-eyed "savior."

"That's what happened when I found her."

As if knowing what he was surprised about, Caron explained, "Perhaps because of Gaia's power, he didn't die even if he was under the curse, but only left a scar like this." By the way, you just said what happened to her? ”

"She seemed to have a fever. However, this situation is normal for nascent wizards, it seems that the body's self-alarm mechanism is working because the magic is too strong, and it consumes magic to improve its own constitution, and at the same time prevent magic riots. ”

Dumbledore looked at the baby girl who was staring at him, sensing the magic that was constantly overflowing from her, and then slightly stranged, "Although it is normal to have abundant magic power as a 'son of Gaia', why do I feel that this magic does not seem to match her?" ”

"To save her, we lost our holiest friend."

Not only Caron, but Fei Leng Cui, who was standing behind him, also showed a sad look, "His Highness Opal sacrificed his horn and life to save her. ”

Unicorns are extremely holy creatures in the entire wizarding world, and the blood in their bodies contains powerful life force, so losing blood is equivalent to losing life.

In a normal sense, the blood of a unicorn can save a dying life, and the horn on the top of the head can become a sharp weapon that penetrates all evil, and can also become the best tool for exchanging life for life or destroying evil.

There are also rumors in the wizarding world that a unicorn can even bring the dead back to life if they want to.

"Opal?!"

Dumbledore, who was shocked to the extreme by what he heard, looked down at the baby girl in his arms again, "To save her?" ”

"Yes."

Charon nodded, relieved after confirming that the baby was fine, and then reached out to pick her up again, a little sad in his expression, but not sad, "But the life of our holiest friend will live on her." ”

“……”

Although it was not the first time that he had learned that non-human beings had different values than humans, Dumbledore admitted that he was still not comfortable with the centaur rhetoric, so he had to change the subject, "Speaking of which, does this child have a name?" ”

"Opal. She inherited the name of our holiest friend. ”

"Opal Unicol Snape." ”

"Snape?"

Because of the last surname, Dumbledore frowned, "This last name...... Is there any special significance? ”

"That's what the woman who brought her to the altar told us. Isn't it normal to have a surname as a human being? ”

This time it was Caron's turn to be puzzled, "Or is there something wrong with this surname?" ”

"No, it's probably just a coincidence. In other words, did the 'Son of Gaia' appear here from another dimension this time? ”

Dumbledore cleverly shifted the subject.

After all, he knew very well that since Lily Evans married James Potter, Severus Snape's private life was completely ascetic, and there were many people with the surname Snape in the Muggle world, so she couldn't be suspected of having a connection with the current Potions professor at Hogwarts just because of one surname, right?

Imagining this, Dumbledore's beard shuddered, and then turned to Charon: "In that case, Charon, would you like her to attend Hogwarts when she turns eleven?" ”

Then, not at all, he was not surprised to see Charon frowning: "Albus, are you kidding?" Opal is the son of Gaia, who belongs to our natural magical creatures, and you want a son of Gaia to enter human society? ”

"Old friend, please believe that I have no malicious intentions."

Dumbledore smiled, "The Carons may have abilities that we humans can't match. But again, as you can see from the situation sentence, you can't understand how to deal with a wizard's emergency, can you? ”

“……”

Because it was a fact, Charon choked.

“…… Lord Vivien has sent word that she will arrange for the descendants of the Elves to help us. ”

Finally, a centaur who couldn't refute turned his body slightly to the side and looked away.

In a sense, non-human magical species are actually quite stubborn, they are unwilling to accept favors from humans, even wizards, and proudly survive and reproduce in their own way, except for a few races that are close to humans and have to rely on wizards because of their contract, even if they are doomed to perish.

Dumbledore secretly sighed in his heart: "Old friend, the elves have been isolated from the world for a long time, and judging from the current development trend, as the son of Gaia, he still has to deal with the human race for a long time after all. ”

After a slight pause, Dumbledore lowered his eyes slightly, hiding his expression, "Or are you planning to let the 'Son of Gaia', who doesn't know anything, grow up slowly in the midst of setbacks?" Now you ...... Do you have to wait? ”

Silent.

"Eleven."

After a few moments, Charon turned and walked towards the centaur quarters with Emerald in tow, "When we are eleven years old, we will send our Son of Gaia to Hogwarts. But until that day comes, no wizards are welcome to disturb you. ”

"Of course, old friend. I would admonish my students about that. ”

Having achieved his goal, Dumbledore laughed and blinked, "You know, children's curiosity is usually very important, isn't it? ”

Agreed, and that was an opportunity.

For the wizarding world, a son of Gaia who grew up with wizards as a "human" is always better than a son of Gaia who was raised by a non-human species to ignore or even hostile to humans, isn't it?

"Tsk."

==================I'm the dividing line for the switch scene================??? ・The secret land of the lake

“……”

Silently looking at the woman who had just said something in a normal tone like "It's been nice today", Voldemort's last thing to do at the moment was to pull out his wand and hit her directly at the Avada Death Spell.

Do you want him, the dignified Lord Voldemort, the dark duke who reigns over the entire wizarding world, to raise a baby as a half-blood?!

What is she when he is? Babysitting?!

Is this woman determined that she can't do anything to her because of the contract!

The blue eyes became more and more gloomy at this moment, and a faint red dark light flashed.

"Don't look at me like that, Riddle, I'm just giving you a chance."

Seemingly completely unaffected by someone's soaring murderous aura, Vivien poured herself a cup of tea with a calm expression, "You should already understand what the curse on your body is, right?" ”

“……”

Naturally, was his act of consulting the classics in the secret realm of the lake fake?

In fact, the curse leaves room for lifting. But until then......"

Vivi paused, "Although your power can be restored on its own, it cannot be increased. And not being able to increase your strength means that all your levels can only stay at your current age. In a sense, it can be regarded as an alternative 'immortality'. Anyway, how do you feel about the moment when you've achieved your goals? ”

Stay in this state to not grow old or die?! He'd rather kill himself right now by going to the Aurors!

"So, go and teach the son of Gaia. I can guarantee that you will get a windfall. ”

Squinting slightly, Vivien's purple eyes sparkled, "Whether you want to believe it or not, the Muggle Riddle bloodline you hate originated from the Qi Clan—otherwise I wouldn't have been able to successfully access you to the secret realm of the lake that only non-humans can enter." The use of this surname is not an insult. ”

"Humph! Bring the information. ”

After pursing his lips, someone can only choose an expedient compromise after all.
