Chapter 6 No If!!
"I'm going back to Hogwarts. β
Voldemort's voice was soft, as if even he wasn't sure if this was what he really wanted.
Carl didn't know what to look at.
Surprised, or calm.
He should have been shocked by Voldemort's request.
But somehow, he didn't think he was surprised.
He had just experienced intense soul pain, and he felt that there was nothing left to make his emotions fluctuate mentally in a short period of time.
However, he noticed that Dumbledore's eyes flashed with a flash of joyβ
Carl didn't think he was dazzled.
It was as if Dumbledore had anticipated Voldemort's choice.
On the surface, however, Dumbledore seemed stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
"That's not a reasonable request, Tom. β
"You should know that I can't leave you alone in Azkaban and leave you alone for so long, let alone at Hogwarts. β
"Also, if you can, can you tell me what you'd like to do at Hogwarts?"
After saying such a long series of words in one breath, Dumbledore didn't even pause in between.
Carl couldn't help but roll his eyes widely, Dumbledore obviously had something to say.
Combined with Dumbledore's reaction just now, Karl even began to think that the old man might have calculated that Voldemort would make this request.
But the question is......
"What exactly do you want, Tom?"
Dumbledore asked softly.
"You should know what I want, old man. β
Voldemort immediately said that this time, his voice was much louder.
It was as if Dumbledore had come to his senses.
Then, the old man's eyes flashed with memory.
"Yes, Tom, I remember, after all those years, it felt like yesterday to me. β
As he spoke, Dumbledore sighed and shook his head, filled with endless regret.
"But Tom, I have to turn you down again......"
"Why?"
There was no surprise in Voldemort's voice, but he asked anyway.
"Even now, you still think I don't want that position? or ......"
Voldemort sneered with disdain, "Do you think my magic isn't up to the job?" or are you afraid I'm going to teach your 'cute' kids badly?"
Dumbledore shook his head.
"Neither...... Tom, you should understand that with your current status, you can't be a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher in full view, and that will only cause endless panic. β
This time, Voldemort didn't speak, as if he felt that Dumbledore had a point.
Seeing this, Dumbledore sighed again.
"Tom, I admit that I made a bad decision that led to a series of mistakes that followed......"
Voldemort's attention was focused, and he looked at Dumbledore with a hint of confusion in his eyes, as if he didn't expect Dumbledore to say this.
"So, while I can't agree to your request, I want to ......"
Dumbledore tapped his forehead, as if considering his words.
Half a day.
"Tom, I know you've always made it your homeβ"
"I didn't ......," Voldemort said immediately.
Dumbledore shook his head.
"Don't be too busy denying it, Tom. β
Dumbledore took a deep breath and seemed to have made a big decision.
Tom ...... I'm willing to give you another chance, a chance to return to Hogwarts, but not as a teacher, but as a student......"
"You will still have to serve your sentence for the rest of your life, but your place of imprisonment will be transferred to Hogwarts...... You'll be entering Hogwarts as a transfer student, and as for your age, I guess that's not a problem for you. β
......
It seems that even Voldemort was frightened by Dumbledore's decision.
He looked at Dumbledore's old face, scarlet eyes filled with suspicion and disbelief.
Dumbledore looked back at him calmly, his blue eyes shining with wisdom.
For a long time, Voldemort couldn't see anything from the old man's face, so he could only take the lead in looking away and said softly.
"As far as I know, transfer students are not accepted there. β
"Yes, Hogwarts doesn't accept transfer ......students," Dumbledore nodded, "but for those who are extremely talented, I think I can make an exception for him as Headmaster." β
Voldemort looked at Dumbledore again, and Dumbledore nodded mischievously at him.
"I think you're already extremely talented. β
A sneer flashed across Voldemort's face, as if he had some disdain for Dumbledore's wordplay, but he uttered a word anyway.
"Condition. β
Suddenly, Dumbledore's eyes showed extreme surprise, he did not hide this joy, even Voldemort saw it clearly.
In an instant, Dumbledore's tone was infinitely lighter.
"Tom, I won't forbid you to use magic, but your every move must be monitored, and whoever spies on you ......"
Dumbledore turned his gaze to Karl......
Karl's heart pounded at once.
No way......
Impossible, right......
You won't be so tricked by him, will you?
However......
"I guess you can stay with Carl and let him keep an eye on you. β
"I think Carl's magic should be enough for the job. β
Burst!
Carl spurted a mouthful of old blood in his heart.
"No way!!"
He almost yelled.
Are you kidding?
Originally, in his heart, no matter what decision Dumbledore made, it didn't matter much to him.
In his heart, he has already made up his mind to be a melon-eating crowd quietly.
Even, if Voldemort did become the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts, he was quite looking forward to it.
But how did it come to this?
What does this have to do with him?
How could an old man say such a thing?!
Let Voldemort follow him?
It can't be funny, right?
"Carl, I remember you got along well with Gellert. β
Dumbledore said with a smile.
Hehe.
Karl looked blankly at Dumbledore.
When did he get along well with Grindelwald?
......
Well, even if he got along with Grindelwald okay, but that was his life in exchange, if he hadn't been cautious enough and talented at the beginning, his life would have been gone.
What's more, the two people are not the same at all.
Excluding those messy ideas and pursuits, Grindelwald is a normal person at all, and he is also half his own father, and Voldemort ......
It's just a madman.
And at most, it's a stepmother, or a very backward, just take it, no matter what kind of raising-
This is a master who treats murder as if he were eating and drinking, and with such a terrible madman by his side, Carl feels that he probably can't sleep well every day.
And......
Carl couldn't help but look at the latter's face, which was even more terrifying than a ghost.
To be honest, it's been like that after watching it for a long time......
If you adapt to it......
Bah!!
There are no ifs!!
