Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

Chapter 417 Storytelling

Half an hour later, Snape helped Dumbledore out of the basement again.

At this time, Mike was sitting on the sofa, devouring a plate full of various foods.

Although I ate a lot at Lupin's wedding before, but after tossing with Dumbledore all night, Mike was already hungry!

Snape, who had just helped Dumbledore to the living room, saw this scene and his face darkened.

And Mike also noticed their arrival, and saw that he swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty, and then said to Dumbledore and Snape with a plate:

"Headmaster Dumbledore, do you want to come too? Professor Snape's craftsmanship is really good!"

"Oh? Really? Then I really want to try it!"

Dumbledore said with a smile.

His face looked much better than before he went to the basement, at least there was some blood on his face, and his most seriously injured right hand was covered with white bandages at the moment, which looked no different from a mummy.

Dumbledore struggled to break free from Snape's support and slowly sat beside Mike.

At this time, he looked like a real centenarian. Such a simple action made him panting like a cow, and there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Mike carefully wiped off the sweat for Dumbledore, and then inserted a soft poached egg from the dinner plate and fed it into Dumbledore's mouth.

"Yeah! But it's not bad!" Dumbledore said with wide-eyed eyes. "It's peppered on top, isn't it? Severus, I didn't expect you to be hiding this."

A rare blush appeared on Snape's face. He stared at Mike viciously, clenching his fists. Mike could guarantee that if Dumbledore wasn't beside him at this moment, Snape would definitely fight with him.

Mike also closed it as soon as he saw it, and quickly changed the subject and said:

"By the way, Professor Snape, how is Headmaster Dumbledore doing?"

As expected by Mike, the expression on Snape's face immediately became solemn after hearing this.

It's just that he didn't answer Mike immediately, but turned his head to look at Dumbledore who was eating in the exam room with questioning eyes.

"The situation is very bad." Dumbledore put down the sausage in his hand, did not respond to Snape, but looked at Mike with a smile, "This is a very powerful curse, even your potions professor It can only be suppressed temporarily. If nothing else, I may not live too long."

Hearing that, Mike's expression instantly became extremely surprised.

But what he was surprised was not the news that Dumbledore would not live too long, but because Dumbledore actually told him the news!

As an elder, shouldn't you tell the younger generation good news instead of bad news?

How did it go the other way around Dumbledore?

It's just that Dumbledore and Snape obviously didn't know the real reason for Mike's shock. They thought that Mike was just shocked by the news.

As a result, the smile on Dumbledore's face became softer. He patted Mike's shoulder and said softly:

"Don't worry, I won't die in ten years, but the magic in my body will continue to weaken."

Mike opened his mouth slightly, not knowing how to respond.

Snape on the side sneered when he saw this:

"You could have lived at least fifty years! Just because you did something stupid last night!"

The smile on Dumbledore's face disappeared as soon as he said this.

He lowered his head, looking very lost.

Mike frowned and looked at Snape. He originally thought that Snape should understand Dumbledore. After all, Snape also lost the love of his life forever.

Mike believed that if the person who saw the ring at that time was Snape, he would have taken the Resurrection Stone in his hand without hesitation just like Dumbledore!

It's just that now that Snape said what he said, then Dumbledore must have not told Snape the truth.

Thinking like this, Mike looked at Dumbledore again, and sure enough, the old man who had lowered his head just now was blinking frantically at him.

Mike understood in an instant and stopped talking.

"I think it's time for us to go."

Dumbledore said a little embarrassedly, while Snape on the side waved his hand and said in a voice raised eight tones:

"Oh! That's great! I don't want to see you anymore today! Especially you, Mike, put my breakfast down quickly!"

With an embarrassed look on his face, Mike put down the few remaining dinner plates that he had eaten, and then he helped Dumbledore beside him and walked towards the small fireplace.

Just as they were about to step into the fireplace, Snape's voice came from behind them.

"Wait! Dumbledore!" Snape shouted with a dark face, "I only gave you half a month's worth of medicine, you must come to me to replenish the medicine before it runs out! Also, you must You have to take your medicine on time, or you won't be able to last for ten days, let alone ten years! Do you understand?"

Hearing that, Mike and Dumbledore looked at each other with smiles.

Snape, the cold-hearted guy!

"Thank you, Severus."

Dumbledore thanked Snape sincerely, and the latter waved irritably, signaling them to leave quickly.

Dumbledore smiled and nodded, and then he was still led into the fireplace by Mike.

After a flash of light, the small living room in the brick house at No. 19 Spider End Alley was finally clean, and Snape, who was alone, stared at the small fireplace, and sighed deeply after a long time.

...

Ten minutes later, in a bedroom of the villa in the forest of the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore was lying on the bed with a peaceful face, while Mike was sitting beside the bed and looked at Dumbledore without saying a word.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, now the only Horcrux outside is the Slytherin Pendant." Mike said solemnly after a long time, "In view of the current situation, I think we must speed up our actions."

Dumbledore on the hospital bed slowly opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling and said softly:

"That's what I mean, but my current physical condition can't support long-term battles, so I'm afraid you will have to take on greater responsibilities."

"You can rest assured about this. I have been preparing since the moment I watched Voldemort come back to life."

"That's good." Dumbledore's eyes flashed with relief, "Kingsley has already been sent by me to investigate the Slytherin Pendant. After so long, he must have achieved something. Tomorrow Well, I will let Kingsley find you tomorrow and let him cooperate with you fully."

Hearing this, Mike finally had a smile on his face. He had wanted to get rid of the traditional pure-blood nobles represented by Chris for a long time, but he had been taking into account the possible legendary combat power in their family before. Never started.

But now that he has Dumbledore's support, that's all different.

Although Dumbledore is now injured, Mike thinks that he will have no problem dealing with those old antiques that may exist. You must know that Dumbledore still has the elder wand, which is known as the strongest wand!

With that in mind, Mike got up and prepared to leave.

As for the resurrection stone ring, Mike is not going to take it away from Dumbledore, although that is the best decision, after all, Dumbledore is likely to indulge in the ghost summoned by the resurrection stone again, and In the end, he was bewitched by the girl named Ariana.

But Mike felt that there was no need for that now.

Because now Dumbledore doesn't want to live anymore, if it wasn't for Voldemort who hadn't been eliminated, he would have committed suicide by now. 78 Chinese update the fastest computer side:

This is why Dumbledore acted so indifferent after learning that his time was running out. Others might think he was pretending to be calm, but Mike felt that he really didn't care.

It's just that although Mike is not interested in the resurrection stone thing at all, Dumbledore doesn't think so much.

He stared at the back of Mike's departure, and after a while until Mike began to stretch out his hand to open the door, he whispered:

"Mike, wait a minute."

"Are you okay?"

"I know you have a lot of doubts about the ring last night." Dumbledore said, "Come on, let's talk frankly, it will benefit our future cooperation."

Hearing this, Mike could only sit back beside Dumbledore with a weird expression.

He really didn't expect Dumbledore to take the initiative to tell him about the Resurrection Stone.

Seeing Mike coming back, Dumbledore tried to get up from the bed, but Mike hurriedly helped him and put two high pillows behind him.

"Huh! Thank you." Dumbledore exhaled. "Mike, have you read a fairy tale book called "The Tales of Bedouin the Poet"?"

As a traveler, Mike naturally knew the name of "The Story of Bedouin the Poet", but he still shook his head decisively.

In fact, he is not lying, because he really has not read the book!

"It's not surprising, you were already eleven years old when you entered the wizarding world, and you've already passed the age of reading fairy tales." Dumbledore nodded and said, "Then let me tell you. "The Poet" There is a story recorded in "The Story of Bedou". There were three brothers named Peverlier who encountered a big river during their travels... (The original story is too long and I have included it in the work reflections. In this way, the third child finally took the initiative to find the god of death, and happily left the world with him as an equal." ァ78中文ヤ~⑧~1~ωωω.7~8z~w.còм

Although it was not the first time to hear this story, at this moment, listening to Dumbledore tell this fable again, Mike still felt that his heartbeat was racing.

Taking a deep breath and calming down, Mike pretended to just know and said:

"You mean, that ring is actually the resurrection stone?"

"That's right, the black gemstone inlaid on that ring is the Resurrection Stone." Dumbledore said, "In fact, this fable is very popular in the magical world, and many people think that as long as these three Death Saints are collected together The weapon can control death! But that's just nonsense, the three Peverell brothers are just three powerful wizards who created the three powerful Deathly Hallows, and the fables and legends are nothing more than three powerful wizards. It’s just the conjecture of later generations.”

"How do you know that's nonsense? Could it be..."

Mike deliberately looked at Dumbledore with a look of surprise.

And Dumbledore was obviously bewildered by Mike's acting skills, and winked at Mike mysteriously.

"Let me go on, the Resurrection Stone Ring and the Slytherin Pendant are both family heirlooms of the Gaunt family, which is a fairly well-known pureblood family of Salazar Slytherin only. The surviving descendants are also one of the branches of the Peverell family." Dumbledore said, "Of course, the Gaunt family is now in decline, and their only surviving member is only one, and that is Voldemort."

"Voldemort's childhood was a tragedy, his mother was a Squib, and the Gaunt family was a very extreme pure-blood family, so his mother's life in the Gaunt family was not easy. No, it should be said that his mother was in The Gaunt family lived almost as badly as death."

Hearing this, Mike nodded silently.

He knew all of what Dumbledore was saying was true, because Filch was a living example.

These Squibs from pure-blood families are usually abandoned by the family because they can't master magical powers, and only a few are raised by the family as servants, but that's not a good thing.

As for the children who were kicked out of the family, it was even worse. The long-term life in the wizarding world made them unable to integrate into the Muggle world at all, so they usually could only make a living by begging on the side of the road.

As for Voldemort's mother, it is estimated that she was handled by the Gaunt family as a maid.

"I have to say it was a tragedy, but Voldemort's mother didn't just accept her fate. By chance, she fell in love with Voldemort's father, a handsome Muggle. Unfortunately, the Muggle didn't like it. She. So, she used the fascination agent on that Muggle."

"As we all know, love won't last long, and Voldemort's parents are no exception. Soon Voldemort's father abandoned him and his mother, and his mother had no choice but to bring He went back to the Gaunts. Uh...well, what happened next was a complete tragedy, as I said earlier, the Gaunts are a very extreme pureblood family. So they were dealing with Voldemort and his mother. It was also very extreme.”

"It's a tragedy! Voldemort lost his mother forever, and then showed up in an orphanage in London," Dumbledore repeated, "and the story that followed was a lot like your Muggle novel, Christ. "The Count of the Mountain". The pressured prince gained power, and he went back to find his former enemies, and took from them everything that should belong to him."

Having said that, Dumbledore finally stopped.

Dragging the sick body to say such a long paragraph obviously caused a lot of burden on his body. Seeing his panting appearance, Mike instinctively drank water to feed him.

"Phew, thanks, I feel better." Dumbledore said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Mike. Actually, I still have a lot of memory fragments about these things hidden in my office, but my current body is really not suitable for these things. Showing it to you, so you can only understand this history through oral means. I hope these can give you some help."

"Thank you very much, Headmaster Dumbledore, that's enough."

"That's good." Dumbledore nodded with satisfaction, "Just put the resurrection stone with me. In fact, I always knew that using the resurrection stone to summon the undead is just drinking poison to quench thirst, and I will seal it up. don't use it anymore."
