"Pick up the sword! Don't doubt your own will, put aside those useless cowardices...... Only courage, determination and strength are the qualities that everyone should have! ”

"Isn't that going to work? Can't hold on anymore? Is it too painful? No, this sword is not terrible, what is terrible is that you yourself are your weak heart! ”

"I said it...... Pick up the sword! ”

……

Ever since Harry had gripped the sword in the Room of Requirement, it was as if he had seen his alter self staring at him, sometimes in pain, sometimes in plea, sometimes in fear......

What's even stranger is that he can clearly experience almost all the feelings of the "other self".

He knew that his other self was suffering from the loss of his parents since childhood; He also knew that he was appealing for power; He knew that he was terrified that he had hurt Luna with the sword.

Yes, all of this is a contradiction buried deep in Harry's heart.

He wants to gain enough strength so that he doesn't lose any more friends and family. However, while the Gryffindor Sword can give him immense strength, it can also plunge him into an uncontrollable nightmarish abyss.

And just as he grasped the silver hilt of the Gryffindor sword, the mysterious power hidden in the sword seemed to suddenly expand his inner thoughts infinitely.

He had courage, a Gryffindor house grit, but while the sword magnified his courage, it also magnified other more negative things.

Undoubtedly, this forced Harry to confront the most vulnerable parts of his heart.

However, the biggest enemy in people's lives is often themselves...... It is obviously extremely difficult to overcome yourself.

Just as Harry was falling into a cycle of self-contradiction, and when the courage he had built up was worn out by his pain, appeals, and fears, Gryffindor himself appeared!

It wasn't an apparition, it was the real Godric Gryffindor himself, at least in Harry's mind, and the figure was undoubtedly "real".

The long flaming red hair, the neatly combed red beard, and the short robe with gold trim on a red background did not resemble a wizard's strong physique at all.

Gryffindor was the most outstanding dueling master of his time, and just looking at the amazing momentum made people feel irresistibly brave and powerful.

"Harry Potter, huh?"

Beside Harry's "alter ego", Gryffindor stood with the gleaming silver sword in his hand.

"The fact that you have been able to awaken my will to remain in the sword shows that you have extraordinary courage and determination. It's a pity that you are still confused in your heart, if it is only for you now, it is better not to draw my sword again. ”

Speaking of this, Gryffindor paused with the sword in his hand, and then said in a deep voice:

"I think you know what I'm talking about."

Gryffindor's words seemed to come straight into his head, and even though Harry knew that he couldn't understand half of what the other person was saying, he could still clearly understand what the other person was saying.

"Are you...... One of the founders of Hogwarts, Godric Gryffindor? Harry was carrying the same sword in his hand, but he didn't care about the sword right now.

"Mr. Gryffindor, you ...... Why do you know my name? ”

"Huh?" Gryffindor didn't seem to be very interested in Harry's question, so he waved his hand casually, "I know everything the hat knows, of course, it doesn't matter. Potter, you just have to understand that you now have one last chance to give up this sword! ”

The Gryffindor figure stared at Harry for a moment, paused, and then reminded:

"Don't think I'm testing your resolve, anyone who knows me knows that I've never liked to play those twists and turns! This sword is dangerous to you, and if you can't handle it, it will drive you in turn and make you a source of calamity that only knows how to kill, but has no self-will! ”

"So, for the sake of Hogwarts, for the sake of all living beings in this world, I must warn you that if you cannot resist its power, I will let you stand here forever until death takes you away."

"Nope! I'm not going to give up! ”

Just as Percy would be miserable because of his powerlessness, so would Harry.

At the beginning, the enemy who killed his parents was hanging in front of him, but he couldn't do anything, and finally had to avenge his parents by the hand of Maka.

Although Harry never said anything about this, and even thanked Maca for his help, he clearly wanted to use his own strength to defeat Voldemort.

And now, he also has his beloved. In order to better protect Ginny from the tragedy of his parents under the threat of Helbo, he becomes more and more hungry for power.

Sometimes, there may be a thin line between good and evil.

If it weren't for the bad role models like the Dursleys, and without the support of Hermione, Ron, and other friends who made Harry draw a clear bottom line in his heart, it is unknown that he might have taken another extreme path.

Thankfully, nothing had made him forget something important, which allowed him to hold on to the sword and awaken Gryffindor's will.

And because of this, at this point, how could he give up easily?

"Mr. Gryffindor...... In order to protect everyone, to assist Maca, I need to be strong enough! ”

"If you insist," Gryffindor said with a glaring gaze, "then cut off your inner weakness and overcome yourself, I must say, it's not an easy path, and I don't recommend it." ”

He was clearly not a person who liked to talk nonsense, and upon noticing Harry's resoluteness, he immediately took a step away from the "other Harry" who was standing opposite Harry.

It wasn't until then that Harry realized that the reason why Gryffindor was standing there without moving was actually suppressing the other him.

The alter ego that was grounded in the negative will within him and incarnated by the power of the Gryffindor sword.

Just as Harry was on guard to see what was going to happen, the other man suddenly spoke.

"Harry, you're me, so you should understand...... Courage alone can do nothing. There are many helpless things in this world, such as...... We'll never be able to save Mom and Dad. ”

"Harry, think about it, even if you have this power, what can you do? Your talent is only slightly better than that of ordinary people, far less powerful than Maca, and even if you pick up the sword, he is still stronger than you. ”

"Oh, yes! Harry, one more thing you have to know is that if you can't overcome yourself, you'll never get out of here! Consider how Ginny felt! She can't live without you, just like you can't live without her......"

There's nothing more desperate than revealing your own scars, because the words are so accurate that they hit the sore spot, so real that Ren can't help but want to flinch.

Even if Harry tried to convince himself that it was all an illusion created by the Gryffindor sword, he was not confronted with the devil at all, but with his alter ego.

Gryffindor will leave a will in the sword, not for anything else but for those who seek to inherit his sword.

Because he knows very well that once he is confused in his heart, it is not unusual to forcibly break through himself.

On the other side, the other self was still babbling, and the words that pierced his heart made Harry grit his teeth. Knowing that it was just false, that it was the power in the sword that was sapbing his will, but he just couldn't refute every word the other party said.

No, it's not! If we want to overcome ourselves, wouldn't it be better to just put all this aside and not think about these unsolvable questions?

"Shut up!" Harry suddenly covered his ears and yelled, "You're fake! You can't mislead me! I just want to gain power, and it has nothing to do with what you're talking about."

Gryffindor looked at Harry in front of him, and suddenly shook his head slightly.

And almost at the moment when Harry covered his ears, the other party's voice seemed to be amplified several times, and it kept swirling in his mind.

Harry, who had just wanted to forget about these things, grew irritated by the sudden increase in chatter. The more he tried to empty his head and keep the words away from him, the clearer the voice became.

At some point, an irrepressible anger erupted from Harry's heart.

"I'll shut you up!"

Suddenly, he raised his hand and the Gryffindor sword, which Harry had been holding in his hand, suddenly burst into a burst of red light.

Immediately after, a sword light flashed from top to bottom, passing through the figure of the other self opposite him.

"Is it over?"

Gryffindor looked at Harry, who had no self-control in his eyes, and sighed slightly. But in the next second, Harry suddenly had a shabby wizard's pointed hat on his head.

"Ge Laozi, do you want to do this, let this hat do all the dirty work...... Ouch! Isn't this Godric? Why aren't you dead bastard? ”

Needless to say, the tone and style of this speech is not a sorting hat, what else can it be?

"Hey...... Boy, can you do it? Wake up to Ben Hat."

Ignoring the Gryffindor's continued chat, it quickly shouted as soon as it found out that Harry was in critical condition.
