358. Marvolo Gaunt's ring

"What professor? Do you mean Snape? ”

Ron's mind didn't turn, and his first instinct was to have Snape be their Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at the same time.

He'd always wanted this position.

Harry looked at Ron and didn't speak, just sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and then turned to the others and said, "If you want to study with us, come here." ”

"Harry, what do you mean?"

Ron looked confused.

So in the Responsive Room, a group of fifth-grade wizards began to practice Defence Against the Dark Arts under the remote guidance of a phone bug.

Principal's Office.

One is thin and one is strong, one old and one young are sitting facing each other, staring at the small with big eyes.

The headmasters of Hogwarts above were gathering together to whisper something, while Fawkes was arranging his feathers in his nest, and when he had sorted out all his feathers, the two of them were still in their original position.

"Professor Dumbledore, this thing is dangerous, I think you should leave it to me."

In the end, it was Dudley who broke the silence, only to make Dumbledore's face change slightly as soon as he spoke.

Dumbledore: "."

How do you feel that this should be said by me.

I'm the Headmaster of Hogwarts, right?

On Dumbledore's desk was a ring.

A ring set with pitch-black gemstones, and a surname engraved on the ring - Gaunt.

"Leave it to me, Professor Dumbledore."

Dudley stared at the aging Headmaster, who had recently stumbled upon something wrong with Dumbledore, and then he had discovered the ring.

"Dudley." Dumbledore's blue eyes were constantly shining, and his mind was in the midst of a fierce battle of thoughts.

It was the first time in the decades of his life that he had the idea of taking something for himself.

"You should know that it doesn't grant your wishes."

Dudley emphasized.

"I know, of course I do." Dumbledore muttered, looking away from the ring as much as he could.

"But even if it's a phantom, I'd like to see it. Even once."

Dumbledore could look down on everything, but he couldn't let go of his sister's affair.

The ring on the table seemed to exude an incomparable seduction, as if someone was constantly whispering in his ear.

Put it on, put it on, and you'll be able to meet anyone you want.

If it weren't for Dumbledore's incredible perseverance, I would have already put it on if it was someone else.

"I'm annoyed!"

Dudley glared at the ring impatiently.

It's not as if someone is whispering, but the ring is really whispering in your ear.

"If you push it again, I'll smash you."

Dudley stared at the ring with a serious face.

However, the ring ignored Dudley, and the voice of bewitchment still lingered in his ears.

thereupon

Dudley silently pulled out a pendant box from his pocket.

With a slight squeeze in his hand, several cracks immediately appeared on the golden pendant box, and countless black smoke overflowed from the box again, and the box also let out a terrible scream.

I don't know if I really listened to Dudley or what, but this time, the whisper of the mystery really disappeared.

Dudley nodded in satisfaction and placed the pendant box in his pocket.

"How did you get it?"

Dudley turned his gaze to Dumbledore.

Without that demagogic voice, Dumbledore was in much better shape, at least not looking at the ring from time to time: "It's weird. One day it appeared somehow in my path, and I happened to discover it. ”

"Hogwarts?"

"No, at the Ministry of Magic."

Hearing this, Dudley breathed a sigh of relief, and then sighed.

"In order to deal with you, Senior Tom really made a bloody investment."

It has to be said that Voldemort really discovered Dumbledore's weakness and threw out a bait that he would never be able to refuse.

Resurrection Stone.

One of the legendary Three Hallows of Death, it is said to be able to defy the rules of death and summon the spirits of deceased loved ones, allowing them to survive in an alternative form.

In fact, it can only summon a cloud of phantoms that resemble loved ones, and the so-called soul is nothing more than a false illusion.

"This ring really can't be placed here for you, all Horcruxes can be except this one."

"You don't believe me?"

Dumbledore asked.

Dudley replied very decisively, "Yes, I don't believe you can resist using it." ”

Dumbledore: "."

It was the first time he had been so decisively rejected.

It was also the first time I heard someone say that they didn't believe him Dumbledore.

"If I were Senior Tom, I would definitely have my hands and feet on this ring, that's for sure."

Dumbledore also knew that there must be something wrong with the ring, and Voldemort told you very clearly that he had done something to the ring.

But can you Dumbledore resist wearing it? Can you?

Even if the others knew, would they be able to stop Dumbledore? Can you?

This is a conspiracy

Many times the conspiracy is more useful than any conspiracy.

At this moment, there was a sound of the passage being opened outside the door, and then there was a knock on the door of the principal's office.

"Albus, you're looking for us?"

It was Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape who walked in from outside, and when they saw Dudley inside, they didn't show a surprised expression.

"No, it's not Professor Dumbledore, it's me."

Dudley said.

Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape were the most trusted professors in all of Hogwarts except for Dumbledore, and while Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout were also trustworthy, it was not a good thing that there were too many people who knew about it.

"Professors, I need you to supervise Professor Dumbledore for a while."

"What happened?"

The two professors don't know why.

"Professor Dumbledore has been targeted by that demon king, and his only flaw has also been discovered by the other party."

Now that Voldemort has discovered Dumbledore's weakness, he will not rest on his laurels.

Dudley concealed the resurrection stone, told the two professors the rest of the truth, and quietly wiped it on the table, and the ring with the resurrection stone disappeared.

Whether the Resurrection Stone can be said or not, there are few people who can resist not using the Resurrection Stone, whether it is Professor McGonagall or Professor Snape, they all have deceased people who are missed so much.

The two professors didn't see the small movement, but Dumbledore did, but his lips were slightly open and he didn't speak.

"Really? Dumbledore! ”

Although they didn't know what Dumbledore's flaws were, their expressions became visibly tense.

After a pause, Dumbledore finally nodded.

Dumbledore was the only being who could deal with the Dark Lord.

If his weaknesses are grasped by the other party, then the consequences are unimaginable.

"We'll keep an eye on him during this time."

The two professors said with serious expressions.
